After some officials recovered, they immediately began to calculate.

"Mengde, as Minister of War, it is up to you to compile the strength of the six great legions and inform the ministers."

"Let the ministers witness the current strength of our Great Han Empire!"

At this moment, after hearing the reports from the commanders of the six great legions regarding their strength...

Liu Bian, also excited, said loudly to Minister of War Cao Cao.

"This subject obeys the decree!"

Upon hearing this, Cao Cao bowed immediately and then quickly began to compile the figures.

Before long, Cao Cao finished the compilation, and looking at the results...

Even though he had already heard the reports from the six commanders, he was still filled with shock.

After composing his excited emotions, Cao Cao said respectfully to Liu Bian:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, according to my compilation, our Great Han Empire now has two people at the Postnatal Seventh Heaven in the six great legions alone."

"Five at the Postnatal Sixth Heaven, fifteen at the Postnatal Fifth Heaven, two at the Postnatal Fourth Heaven, twenty at the Postnatal Third Heaven, and twenty at the Postnatal Second Heaven."

"Five hundred and fifteen at the Postnatal First Heaven; the number of people in the six great legions who have broken through to the Postnatal Realm has already reached five hundred and seventy-nine!"

"And those who have reached the Divine General Realm have reached as many as thirteen thousand eight hundred and fifteen!"

"And all other soldiers have reached the strength of First-rate Martial Generals!"

After Cao Cao finished speaking, his whole body trembled with excitement.

One must know that each of the six great legions has two hundred thousand men; the six great legions total one million two hundred thousand men.

With an army of one million two hundred thousand composed of warriors with the strength of First-rate Martial Generals, everyone was unable to imagine what could possibly stop them.

"This subject congratulates Your Majesty on obtaining such a formidable army!"

After Cao Cao finished reporting, he bowed excitedly to Liu Bian.

Seeing this, the officials also recovered and immediately followed Cao Cao, bowing excitedly:

"We, your subjects, congratulate Your Majesty on obtaining such a formidable army!"

"Hahaha, ministers, please rise!"

Liu Bian was also very happy at this moment; the six great legions had truly given him a huge surprise this time.

Subsequently, Liu Bian cast his gaze toward Navy Commander Gan Ning and asked him:

"Xingba, you should also report the strength of the Navy to me and the ministers!"

With the results of the six great legions before him, Liu Bian also wanted to hear how strong the Navy was.

Navy Commander Gan Ning, upon hearing this, immediately stepped out and said loudly to Liu Bian with a cupped-fist salute:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, my Navy now has two people at the Postnatal Fourth Heaven, ten at the Postnatal First Heaven, and one hundred and fifty at the Divine General Realm."

"There are fifteen thousand at the realm of First-rate Martial Generals, and all other soldiers have broken through to the realm of Second-rate Martial Generals!"

Seeing this, Liu Bian nodded with satisfaction. For Gan Ning's one hundred thousand Great Han Empire Navy to go from formation to their current strength within three months was already quite remarkable.

"Not bad. The one hundred thousand Great Han Navy has only been in existence for less than three short months since recruitment began."

"To have such strength in such a short time, you and Zi Yi have made indispensable contributions, Xingba!"

Hearing Liu Bian's praise, Gan Ning responded respectfully:

"This general thanks Your Majesty for the praise, and is willing to die for Your Majesty!"

Subsequently, before anyone else could react, Gan Ning immediately requested battle from Liu Bian:

"This general requests that Your Majesty make the Navy the main force for the upcoming attack on Jingzhou and Yangzhou!"

"Damn it, I didn't expect Gan Xingba to be such a schemer!"

"I was careless!"

Lü Bu and the other five commanders of the great legions were shocked upon hearing Gan Ning's words.

They all cursed Gan Ning in their hearts.

Immediately, the six of them also reacted and requested battle from Liu Bian one after another:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this general requests battle!"

"This general requests battle!"

Seeing all six of them step out to request battle, Liu Bian stood up.

He said majestically to the six of them:

"Ministers, do not worry. This time, I intend to mobilize five armies simultaneously."

"This battle will be the final battle to unify the thirteen provinces of the Great Han!"

Upon hearing this, the officials all revealed expressions of excitement.

After clearly understanding the strength of the six great legions...

The civil and military officials could no longer wait.

With such formidable strength, they could flatten the entire world.

"Your Majesty is wise, we second the motion!"

Seeing that the officials had no objections, Liu Bian scanned the crowd and said majestically to the commanders of the six great legions and Gan Ning:

"Now that our Great Han Empire's six great legions and the Imperial Navy possess such strength, I have decided to launch a campaign against the remaining six provinces simultaneously."

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Upon hearing this, the officials continued to bow loudly.

"General Lü Bu of the Divine Martial Legion, take orders!"

"This general is here!"

Lü Bu responded loudly with a cupped-fist salute upon hearing the call.

"Lü Bu, lead the two hundred thousand Divine Martial Legion, starting today, to campaign against Liu Dai of Yanzhou. Anyone who dares to obstruct shall be killed without mercy!"

As Liu Bian's majestic voice fell, Lü Bu responded loudly:
