God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

After receiving the message and confirming the results, Fazheng felt a little better, but only a little.

In a sense, it's good news that Hraleh agreed to the second option.

Based on the three plans initially formulated, which can be considered as the best, middle, and worst options, if Hrithalah can agree to the compromise plan, then they don't need to use the worst option.

The best course of action is simple: Helilah should completely side with the Han Empire, serve the Han Empire, and thus collapse and disintegrate the Brahmanism's reliance on the power and interpretation of the gods.

They can deal with the power of gods through brute force, but the interpretive authority derived from the gods cannot be resolved through physics.

The one who tied the knot must untie it; the power of the divine can be resolved by the divine itself, and the power of spiritual radiance can achieve the same result.

The middle strategy is the current situation, which is slightly more subtle and takes more time to gradually destroy and dismantle the Brahmanical system.

As for the worst option, it was the method proposed by Li Ru and Jia Xu. It was considered a worst option not because the method was flawed, but because of the consequences and moral implications.

The method is simple: let Liu Tong take action, to actually do it.

"Having that person take action to complete this plan is probably only part of their objective." Fa Zheng looked up at the sky, sighed softly, and then suppressed the thoughts in his mind.

This is a secret, a secret that, before it is exposed, could very well cause a huge upheaval.

It's all thanks to him; if it were anyone else, this secret would probably be common knowledge by now.

The inferior strategy proposed by Jia Xu and Li Ru was a possibility derived from Liu Tong's spiritual and monarchical talents, a possibility that Liu Tong would definitely adopt.

The dual uses revealed by the spiritual talent are: reverse use, where one can use the spiritual power of others to strengthen oneself, and one's thinking will also be affected to a certain extent; and positive use, which currently appears to be using spiritual power to connect with others.

But is this the limit?

Based on the war rehearsed in the dream and the details revealed in past battles, Fa Zheng also agreed with the conclusions drawn by Li Ru and Jia Xu.

I'll give Liu Tong face and not cause you trouble out of habit, but if you don't give me face, do you really think that such a huge amount of mental power can't be forcibly controlled?

If Huangfu Song can create illusionary soldiers that can be whitewashed, copied, and even plundered, can't Talent achieve something similar?

In particular, Liu Tong's monarch talent allows him to gather the power of many people to suppress others. Combined with his talent, controlling a few people is a piece of cake.

The reason Liu Tong doesn't use it is probably because he understands the impact of this ability, which could easily disrupt the current stable social order, or perhaps... "I always feel that His Majesty hasn't revealed this method because of his laziness." Fa Zheng gently shook his head and looked down at the sand table on the ground again.

Few people know about this speculation, or rather, many people know about it but no one dares to speak out.

Everyone has a scale in their heart; they know perfectly well what should be said and what shouldn't be said.

Whether it was due to laziness or other reasons, those in the know had to acknowledge Liu Tong's attitude, especially the wise lords who were away from home.

Before a clear gap in strength emerges, everyone abides by certain unspoken rules. Under these unspoken rules, Liu Tong's decline is a good thing for everyone.

An overly powerful and domineering monarch might be more conducive to unleashing the Han Empire's fighting strength, but whether the people below would have such strong initiative is another matter.

However, Fazheng sometimes suspected that, with the blessing of monarchical talent, Liu Tong, if he went all out, might be able to build a court team. This team might not be perfect or powerful, but it would most likely be able to maintain the stability of the entire empire.

Only with this kind of ability can those people accept that this concession is a matter of human kindness.

"Given such a military situation, how could Xiaozhi still have the mind to tease His Majesty?" Guo Jia, who came in from outside the tent, glanced at the people inside the tent and, after confirming that there was no one else, began to tease Fazheng.

Upon hearing this, Fa Zheng rolled his eyes and looked at Guo Jia with a speechless expression.

What he said was indeed somewhat wrong, but was what Guo Jia said completely right?
If everyone's making fun of it, then it's the same as not making fun at all; what if word gets out...?

"Let's set aside His Majesty's matter for now. As for the military situation, the outcome seems to be as expected." Having withdrawn his inner thoughts, Fa Zheng followed Guo Jia's lead and directly changed the subject of the discussion.

"The result is quite good. General Guan won a great victory in this battle, and the soldiers are no longer as resistant and cautious in their words." Guo Jia, who had walked around the military camp to observe and inquire, gave his observations.

“In the past, the soldiers weren’t disobeying orders, but rather they were cautious and worried. Even if they did carry out orders, the effect and speed were not that quick. A little hesitation and delay on one's part might not have much of an impact, but if most people had such thoughts and ideas, it would be tantamount to disrupting the coordination of the entire army and would seriously affect combat effectiveness…” Fa Zheng nodded, quite approving of this improvement.

"Now that we've solved the soldiers' trust issue, the next step is the second phase." Guo Jia glanced down at the sand table and quickly understood Fa Zheng's plan, realizing that the current situation had entered the second phase.

“Yes, what we need to do next is create an environment, give the other side a chance, and also give us a chance. Rahul is very dangerous, we must get rid of him so that our progress in the south can proceed in an orderly manner. Otherwise, with the Brahman system providing a constant supply, how many years will it take us to get through?” Fa Zheng glanced at the token beside him, nodded, and used the pusher on the side to push the flag on the sand table forward. At the same time, he used his mental power to transmit the information that needed to be conveyed.

Only through multi-faceted cooperation can we reduce unexpected factors, grasp the final outcome, and thus pave the way to victory.

With the support of the Brahmanical system, Guo Jia believed that as long as Rahul adopted a defensive posture, the Han Empire would have virtually no other possibilities or ideas.

Sufficient troops, in the hands of a large army with geographical advantages, become a formidable force that can be readily converted into cash. (End of Chapter)
