Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

Is it really okay to do this?

After Gao Shun finished setting up the camp, he couldn't help but ask Lu Xun for advice.

After all, Lu Xun had filled the camp with flammable materials, and if he were not careful, the entire camp would probably turn into a sea of ​​fire.

Even if you are trapped in a sea of ​​fire, you will still lose your life.

"Don't worry, General Gao, I have strictly ordered everyone to be careful with fire. As long as we are careful, there will be no problem!"

Lu Xun smiled and comforted Gao Shun, explaining that his arrangement was actually quite sophisticated. Unless they were lit simultaneously, even if a fire broke out, it would only spread to one or two places at most, and it would be quite easy to extinguish.

It's just that it looks a bit worrying; there are already more than one or two officers in the camp who have come to Lu Xun to report this.

This is also a rather helpless situation for Lu Xun at present.

On the surface, everyone seemed to treat him with great respect, but in reality, no one truly trusted Lu Xun.

That's why so many people are asking about Lu Xun.

This is also why Lu Xun was willing to take the risk; he wanted to establish his authority.

The best way is to do something that everyone else is worried about, but that only he firmly believes in.

Once his plan succeeds, these people will no longer have any doubts and will only carry out his orders steadfastly.

This is also the essence of command that Lu Xun and Han Xin learned.

Command and dispatch ultimately depend on people, so the degree of trust a colonel has in the commander will determine the speed at which orders are executed.

In reality, even the slightest hesitation can cause problems, so it is essential to establish authority.

Lu Xun certainly had other ways to deal with the Kingdom's army, but the most effective method was still to set fire to it.

It can both crush the enemy in one fell swoop and establish absolute prestige within the army, achieving two goals at once.

Gao Shun left with some doubt after being comforted by Lu Xun.

He knew that sometimes clever people's arrangements could be baffling, but this was the first time he had ever seen an arrangement so baffling.

They were completely on the verge of a fire.

This torment existed in the hearts of every officer who knew the camp's arrangements.

However, they dared not directly oppose Lu Xun, so they could only suffer in silence.

This ordeal did not last long.

The Kingdom's army has arrived.

"What a formidable formation! This formation..." Lu Xun stood on the command platform, calmly observing the army formation of the Kingdom.

He discovered that the Kingdom's army formation was quite peculiar, resembling three parts of the scenery of Xuanxiang, though he knew it was just a coincidence.

After all, there was no cloud above the Kingdom Army's heads; instead, they resonated with each other, as if a super-sized legionary talent was being transmitted among them.

"When engaging in battle outside the camp, victory is the only option; defeat is not permitted!"

Lu Xun led his troops out of the camp and gave Gao Shun a clear order.

"You can win but not lose?" Gao Shun was stunned, not understanding what Lu Xun was up to.

Since the camp was a large fireground, he believed that feigning defeat to lure the enemy into the camp was the best option.

But what does it mean that only winning is allowed and losing is not?

Although he didn't understand what Lu Xun meant, Gao Shun still responded.

That just so happens, he also intends to accumulate invincible power.

Not being defeated suits him just as well.

"Charge into battle!"

Gao Shun walked out of the camp with some doubt and confusion, but he actually breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the camp.

He would rather fight the enemy to the death than stay in a fire that could be ignited at any moment.

He's been a little anxious while sleeping these past two days, fearing that the camp might suddenly catch fire.

Duke Charles Cano, the commander of the royal army, looked at the lone vanguard that had broken out of the camp and did not understand what it meant.

"What does this mean? Are they coming out to their deaths?"

"Your Grace, please be extremely careful. The cloud-like gas floating above these people has the effect of suppressing battle aura and magic. We must not be careless!"

One of the nobles who had been defeated by Gao Shun rushed forward to explain.

"Hmph, I'd like to see if this cloud is as magical as you all say!" Duke Charlie Cano sneered.

"Iron Lion Knights, prepare to charge!"

A large number of well-equipped knights formed a special military formation, their fiery battle auras surging together, their momentum soaring, like a lion roaring and howling.

"interesting!"

Lu Xun observed the changes in the Knights Order. Unlike Xing Han's approach, this world's approach focused on strengthening through resonance, almost completely abandoning the power of suppression.

It has a completely different starting point from the construction of the cloud system.

After all, the cloud system was originally discovered and summarized by Han Xin in order to deal with Xiang Yu.

The core purpose was to suppress Xiang Yu's superhuman power.

But this world is different; this world is about obtaining non-human power.

It's not entirely wrong, but it does discard some parts.

"The ambition to be trapped in a battle will lead to death but not life!"

Gao Shun led the Trapped Camp in an attack formation and charged head-on towards the Knights.

The cloud system is a combination of blessing and suppression, but it can also be used entirely for blessing.

Not to mention the military spirit inherent in the soldiers themselves.

"These idiots actually think they can use infantry to counter the Knights' charge? Even those giants wouldn't dare to do that!" Charcano sneered.

But he forgot one thing: when an individual is strong enough, riding a horse can actually limit their performance.

Just like Lu Bu, when he was fighting one-on-one with others, Red Hare was mostly just an ornament, a prop to boost his fashion value.

The two torrents collided rapidly.

A direct confrontation? A desperate charge? First, let's ask the sword in our hands if it agrees.

The military spirit power wrapped around the blades of the soldiers in the Trapped Camp erupted with terrifying force in an instant.

With a single slash, both man and horse were shattered.

The Iron Lion Knights were thrown into chaos by the overwhelming difference in strength.

Charging, mounts, and battle aura are all meaningless.

With a single slash, no matter what fancy tricks you have up your sleeve, they will all be utterly crushed, resulting in instant physical death!
"Thud!" The spear pierced through the knight opposite with terrifying speed and force, and Gao Shun wiped the blood splattered on his face.

Then, he unleashed a terrifying internal energy attack, which neutralized the battle aura emitted by several knights in the distance and instantly killed them.

Gao Shun frowned and looked at the spear in his hand. He was still a little unaccustomed to this style of combat.

In previous wars, the two sides mostly fought each other from the perspective of mortals, under the suppression of the clouds.

In this world, no one is suppressing their power, and the force they unleash is far greater than that under the clouds.

Gao Shun is a bit out of his depth when it comes to playing.

The same applies to the enemy's formation. Even though each of them possesses extraordinary power, they still fight using the methods of ordinary people, attacking with swords and spears.

On the other hand, the Kingdom's army was ablaze with battle aura and magic. "Fengxian would probably like this world!"

As Gao Shun was thinking, a burly man with bristling hair and beard appeared in front of him.

The aura emanating from him was like the majestic power of heaven.

It's a powerful enemy!
As the spear clashed with the greatsword, Gao Shun's expression turned solemn, his wrist trembling uncontrollably.

Such power from a single strike shows this person is not to be underestimated.

"Who the hell are you!"

Duke Charles Carnot, like a roaring lion, questioned Gao Shun before him.

The knightly order he painstakingly built turned out to be like a fortress on the beach, utterly vulnerable in the face of the enemy.

At first, he was quite disdainful, but now he was filled with endless resentment. They didn't understand why such an army had suddenly appeared, or why it was attacking them.

“We are here to overthrow the rule of this kingdom!” Gao Shun responded, a rare occurrence for him.

He could sense the Iron Lion Duke's character from his attacks.

"The king is incompetent and corrupt, treacherous officials are in power, and the people are suffering. Why would you be loyal to such a kingdom?" Gao Shun used his telepathy to convey his thoughts to Duke Iron Lion.

"The royal bloodline has continued for hundreds of years, and we should naturally be loyal!" Duke Iron Lion's matter-of-fact answer left Gao Shun speechless.

He was ultimately not good with words and could only let his abilities speak for themselves.

"clang!"

Gao Shun retreated repeatedly; he was no match for Duke Iron Lion.

This left Gao Shun feeling somewhat defeated, as he had thought that after breaking through the barrier, he would be able to escape the situation of using miracles.

Unexpectedly, the first enemy he encountered after breaking through the barrier was one that left him somewhat overwhelmed.

"Enough, enough!" Gao Shun unleashed a powerful attack, forcing Duke Iron Lion back before retreating back into the Trapped Camp.

"Array up!"

Gao Shun roared, and the Trapped Camp immediately gathered around him, with clouds rising into the sky.

"This is..." Duke Iron Lion looked surprised.

He felt his power decreasing, and the decrease was extremely large; he was about to fall below the legendary realm.

Looking around, everyone else had fallen even harder.

"kill!"

Gao Shun, expressionless, brandished his spear and ordered the Trapped Camp to begin annihilating the Knights' members in a legion-like advance.

"Come and fight me! You coward!"

Duke Iron Lion roared angrily at Gao Shun, but Gao Shun didn't even glance at him.

He was ultimately not a fierce general like Lü Bu, capable of charging into battle.

Duke Iron Lion was unwilling to give up and tried to rush towards Gao Shun, but he was stopped by several centurions halfway there.

The power of military spirit emanated from them, giving them all the same strength as the Iron Lion Duke.

Even with the combined efforts of the group, no matter how much the Iron Lion Duke unleashed his power, they could not get a single step closer to Gao Shun.

"You bastards!" Duke Iron Lion cursed, but he couldn't change the fact that the battlefield was a one-sided massacre.

"Withdraw! Withdraw!"

Duke Iron Lion's heart bled as he watched his knights being slaughtered. Unable to bear the enormous losses, Duke Iron Lion chose to retreat.

Gao Shun pursued for a few steps before returning victorious. After all, the opposing side still had tens of thousands of troops, and even without the cloud aura, rushing in rashly was not a good choice.

"Your Grace!" A mage greeted Duke Iron Lion.

"Say!"

"We've discovered a connection between the clouds above the enemy's head and their camp behind them. We suspect this is some kind of connection through the transmission of power!" the mage cautiously stated, presenting their observations.

Upon hearing this, Duke Iron Lion suddenly understood. He thought to himself, "How could there be a legion in the world capable of slaughtering the Iron Lion Knights?"

If the other party used some kind of power transfer spell, then it would be understandable.

However, what the monks did not expect was that their observations and judgments were slightly interfered with, but none of them noticed it.

Following that wrong judgment, they slid down the wrong path.

This is how Lu Xun applied his spiritual talent: by using suggestion to make his opponent make a wrong judgment, thus achieving a decisive victory.

"Pass on my orders: the entire mage corps shall prepare to cooperate with the infantry legion to suppress the enemy legion, while the remaining knights and other legions shall launch a full-scale attack on the enemy camp!"

Duke Iron Lion gave the final order; his pride in the Knights made him disbelieve that any legion could destroy them head-on.

Therefore, the opponent must have used magic. So, as long as we bypass this reinforced army and directly attack their rear, we can seize victory.

Blind self-confidence can cloud judgment.

It is a major taboo for generals and commanders to make wishful decisions about the unknown without carefully verifying it.

When Lu Xun watched the Kingdom's army rushing towards the camp, he didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

Simple resistance, followed by a natural retreat, intercepted by thousands of puppet soldiers, each one moving with unparalleled success.

"It actually went so smoothly!"

Things going too smoothly made Lu Xun start to have doubts.

However, seeing the kingdom's army already deep inside the camp, Lu Xun still followed the original plan, raising clouds and igniting them using the military formation.

The temperature in the entire camp suddenly rose, and the clouds burned like fire in the sky.

The entire campsite burst into flames in an instant.

The towering flames made one feel as if they were about to be melted just by looking at them.

The oppressive cloud cover combined with the raging fire turned the camp into a giant incinerator.

Everyone was fleeing in panic. Lu Xun ordered his army to outflank the camp from both sides. The fire would not kill everyone, so they were needed to finish them off.

The thousand light cavalry performed exceptionally well during this process, forcing Lu Xun to admit that he was still inferior to Zhuge Liang.

He only thought about his own plan, but didn't consider his own shortcomings.

Without those thousand light cavalry, his retreat would certainly not have been so swift.

Duke Iron Lion stood amidst the sea of ​​fire, staring blankly at the towering flames.

"It's over...it's all over..."

Feeling the oppressive atmosphere of the clouds, how could he not understand that this fire was a place where they would die without a burial?

He might be able to break through, but what about the other soldiers?
"Duke, let's go!" The guards beside him grabbed the Iron Lion Duke and forcibly dragged him away.

But when they forced their way out of the fire, they ran into Lu Xun.

"I never expected to catch such a big fish!"

Lu Xun excitedly led his soldiers forward, for nothing could be more meritorious than the enemy commander.

He originally planned to catch some small fry, but luck was on his side, and he actually caught the commander on the other side.

When Duke Iron Lion was brought before Lu Xun, his eyes were filled with a dazed look, as if his soul had dissipated with the fire.

Upon seeing Lu Xun and realizing that this young man was the commander, Duke Iron Lion finally came to his senses and asked the question he could not understand the most.

"Who exactly are you people?" (End of Chapter)
