Chapter 510
This was also where Liu Bian's confidence lay.
Moreover, ever since the establishment of the dynasty, the spiritual energy of the Great Han Empire had become much denser than in other places.
Nowadays, the cultivation environment in the Great Han was much better than before.
Even among the common people, many had appeared whose strength reached that of second-rate martial generals.
Subsequently, Cao Cao continued to report on the battle situations of the other legions.
"The Vermillion Bird Legion led by General Huang Zhong has now also conquered the Shatavahana Kingdom and is about to strike at the Tianzhu Kingdom."
"The White Tiger Legion led by General Zhao Yun has already wiped out thirty of the thirty-six kingdoms of the Western Regions."
"Now, only six small kingdoms remain; in a few more days, General Zhao Yun will be able to pacify the various kingdoms of the Western Regions."
"As for the Shenwu Legion and the Qinglong Legion led by General Lü Bu and General Guan Yu."
"Because the Parthian Empire, the Kushan Empire, and the Roman Empire are far from the Great Han, and separated by deserts in between."
"Currently, only General Guan Yu's Qinglong Legion has reached the Parthian Empire."
"General Lü Bu is leading the Shenwu Legion toward the Kushan Empire."
"However, given the combat power of the Qinglong Legion, it is estimated that they will be able to take the Parthian Empire within ten days."
After Cao Cao finished reporting the situation of the several major legions to Liu Bian, he waited quietly for Liu Bian's words.
"Very good, the battle results of the six major legions are excellent; after they return in triumph, I will reward them heavily."
"Now that Mengde has finished reporting the situation of the six major legions."
"I will now tell you, my precious subjects, about the situation in the otherworld."
As Liu Bian's voice fell, the ministers also became excited.
An otherworld!
If this were in the past, they would not have dared to even imagine it.
They never expected that they would also have the chance to see an otherworld.
"Your Majesty, I wonder how this otherworld differs from our Great Han?"
At this time, Wang Yun, hearing Liu Bian's words, asked with some curiosity.
"Haha, Old Loving Minister Wang, there is no need to be anxious."
"This otherworld is not much different from our Great Han."
"This otherworld is a parallel world approximately a thousand years after the Great Han."
"I call it the Shen Diao world."
"In this world, the strongest are five experts from the Southern Song of the Central Plains at the Innate Third Heaven."
"In the Shen Diao world, they are revered as the Five Absolutes."
"And in this world, the Emperor of the Central Plains dynasty, the Southern Song, is timid and cowardly."
"The vast land of the Central Plains has been more than half occupied by several nomadic peoples from the north, the Liao, the Jin, and others."
"Once the six major legions have unified the main realm, we can arrange the matters for the expedition to the Shen Diao world."
"The most powerful nation in the Shen Diao world is the Mongol Empire; these Mongols are the descendants of the Xiongnu on the grasslands."
Liu Bian introduced the situation of the Shen Diao world in detail to the civil and military officials below.
At this time, the officials, having finished listening to Liu Bian's introduction, were also extremely excited.
"Your Majesty, if that is the case, the martial arts of this Shen Diao world are not high; I just don't know if their armies have also cultivated martial arts."
"And how many Innate Realm experts do the various nations have?"
As a military strategist, Guo Jia, after calming down, asked Liu Bian.
Upon hearing this, Liu Bian looked at Guo Jia with appreciation, and then, with a relaxed expression, said to the officials:
"There is no need for you, my precious subjects, to worry too much about this."
"In this Shen Diao world, the armies of the various nations have not cultivated martial arts."
"For the sake of easier management, the courts of these nations have not passed cultivation techniques into the military, so the soldiers of these nations are all ordinary people."
"As for Innate Realm experts, there are even fewer."
"The total number of Innate experts in the entire world does not even reach ten."
The ministers, upon hearing this, also wore joyful expressions.
If that were the case, this Shen Diao world could be easily conquered by their Great Han.
At the same time, Guo Jia also said excitedly to Liu Bian:
"Your Majesty, in this way, we can conquer the entire Shen Diao world with minimal cost."
"If planned properly, just one of our Great Han's six major legions could conquer the entire Shen Diao world."
As Guo Jia's voice fell, the Minister of Justice, Jia Xu, who was to the side, also stepped out and said:
"Your Majesty, this humble minister feels that Military Advisor Guo is correct; given our Great Han's current strength, the martial power of this Shen Diao world is somewhat low."
"Nowadays, the generals of the Great Han Empire's six major legions are all Innate Realm experts."
"Moreover, the major generals of the various legions also have cultivation at the Postnatal Ninth Heaven."
"They have the spirit stones bestowed by Your Majesty, and it would take at most two or three months to break through to the Innate Realm."
"At that time, our Great Han alone will have dozens of Innate Realm experts."
"With Innate Realm experts as generals and Postnatal Realm soldiers, how could such a powerful army be a match for our Great Han, when the Shen Diao world's army is composed only of ordinary people?"
As Jia Xu's voice fell, the others also echoed his sentiments one after another.
With the Great Han's current strength, they indeed had the confidence to say this.
However, this was, after all, the first time conquering an otherworld.
Looking at the excited officials before him, Liu Bian said solemnly:
"Everyone, regarding the strength of the Shen Diao world, Fengxiao and Wenhe are not wrong."
"However, I presume you remember that I previously said that when conquering an otherworld, the most important thing is the world consciousness."
"Take the Shen Diao world for example; we can currently only send three Innate Realm experts there."
"We can only send one hundred thousand troops; any more, and they will be forcibly expelled by the world consciousness."
"If we want to send more experts and troops, we must strive to change the world's original progression."
"And to change the world's original progression, we will inevitably have to fight against the local forces."
"Therefore, the selection of the first batch of people to enter the otherworld is the most important."
Liu Bian said this, and seeing that the officials' expressions had become much more serious, he continued:
"And in the Shen Diao world, because I have already been there once, the world's progression has also changed, so the number of people who can enter next time will increase significantly."
"Five Innate Realm experts can enter, and the army can also have two hundred thousand."
"However, these matters will have to wait until the six major legions return to the capital before we make a decision."
At this time, the crowd also calmed down.
After listening to Liu Bian's words, the officials led by Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and others were all somewhat self-reproachful, and with solemn expressions, they said:
"It is our lack of consideration; we ask Your Majesty to punish us!"
Seeing this, Liu Bian nodded with satisfaction.
It was understandable that they, having their first contact with an otherworld, had not thought of this point.
Moreover, setting aside the point about world consciousness, the analysis by Guo Jia and the others was also without issue.
"My precious subjects, do not blame yourselves; after all, this is the first time conquering an otherworld, so I will not hold you accountable this time!"
Upon hearing this, the officials immediately replied respectfully:
"Many thanks, Your Majesty, for your grace in not punishing us; we will not hesitate to die for you!"
