Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16338

Chapter 16336 Proposal

Everyone understood Gongliang Juewen’s meaning. His intention was clear: he could accept the surrender of the traitors, but he would also punish them—this was unavoidable. However, if they all opposed accepting the traitors, he could refuse their surrender, though this would result in significant losses for them.

Gongliang Juewen continued, “Everyone, let’s discuss this. How should we attack the Wanfa Divine Sect? What are your thoughts?”

Everyone fell silent for a moment after hearing Gongliang Juewen’s words. Then, one person stepped forward and said, “Your Majesty, I have some ideas.”

Gongliang Juewen looked at General Li, who had stepped forward, and nodded, saying, “General Li, please speak.”

General Li responded and then said, “Yes, Your Majesty. We don’t know the enemy’s current identity, but we can estimate their strength. The Wanfa Divine Sect has several hundred kingdom-level experts, plus those they have turned against us…” “Their families and sects have a considerable number of kingdom-level experts, and they are also skilled in formations. They have both offensive and defensive formations, so no matter how we attack them, one thing is unavoidable: how to break their formations. Breaking them with brute force is no easy task. They’ve had so much time to set up their formations, so they must be very well-designed. Breaking them with brute force would require an enormous amount of power.”

He paused here, then continued, “If we don’t break their formations with brute force, we can only find them…” “The weaknesses of the formation, and then breaking it, are not easy either; they require a long period of calculation. Besides these two methods, the last method is to use a formation to break the formation. In my opinion, this is the most suitable approach.”

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned. Wen Jing said, “General Li, although using a formation to break the formation is the best method, setting up a formation that can break their formation will also take a long time, so it’s not easy.”

General Li nodded and then said, “Sect Master Wen is right. Breaking their formation is not an easy task, but…” “There is another way to do it, and that is to use the Creation Golden Wheel.”

General Li paused here, then continued, “When we destroyed the Creation God Cult, we obtained quite a few Creation Golden Wheels. The Creation Golden Wheel can be transformed into different magic arrays, so if we use the Creation Golden Wheel, it will be much easier to break an array with an array, at least we will save time setting up the array.”

Hearing his words, everyone nodded. He was right, it was indeed true. The Creation Golden Wheel could indeed be used to directly set up arrays, and if they really used the Creation Golden Wheel, they could indeed save a lot of time setting up magic arrays.

General Li continued, “I believe our attack on them should be divided into three routes. One route will be a coalition of sects, another will be a coalition of aristocratic families, and the last will be a joint military attack. All three armies should attack together, maintaining communication and acting in unison. Furthermore, the distance between the three armies should not be too great, allowing for mutual support. This way, our attack on the Myriad Laws Sect will be much smoother.”

The crowd was initially taken aback by General Li’s words, but then nodded. For the sects and aristocratic families, not acting in concert with the military and the royal family was actually the best option. They were well aware that the overall commander of this attack would not be someone from the sect or aristocratic alliance, but rather someone from the royal family. If the royal family used their position as commander-in-chief to deliberately weaken their power, that was entirely possible. However, by not acting in concert with the military or the royal family, they would have greater autonomy, ensuring they wouldn’t be betrayed.

Neither the Sect Alliance nor the Aristocratic Alliance fully trusted the royal family and the military. They were well aware that the royal family and the military were working together in this operation, and the command could only be given by members of the royal family. If they truly acted together, the royal family might take this opportunity to weaken their power, something they did not want to see. General Li’s suggestion was the best option: three armies, while acting in unison, would have greater autonomy, which would put them at ease.

Gongliang Juewen, observing the Sect Alliance and the Aristocratic Alliance, knew what they were thinking. In fact, General Li’s suggestion was a decision made after discussing it with General Li. Allowing the Aristocratic Alliance and the Sect Alliance to act separately was to lower their guard. As for them, the purpose was to convert all those military personnel and members of the royal family who were not yet members of the Blood Slaughter Sect into members of the Blood Slaughter Sect. This would make their separate operations more convenient. Even if they converted all those members of the royal family and the military into the undead race, the Sect Alliance and the Aristocratic Alliance would not know.

Once they’ve transformed all the members of the military and royal families into the undead, they can then find a way to turn the members of the aristocratic alliance and sect alliance into undead as well. This is a possibility.

This attack sounds promising, but Gongliang Juewen and General Li are well aware that they cannot win. They know what the Blood Slaughter Sect is doing right now. If they attack, it’s like sending lambs to the slaughter. The Blood Slaughter Sect’s formations are not to be underestimated; they will definitely make the members of the sect alliance and aristocratic alliance suffer greatly.

Only by making them suffer enough will they realize the power of the Blood Slaughter Sect. Then, when they propose a combined attack in the next offensive, no one will object. And as long as they don’t object to a combined attack, they can then turn everyone in the Sect Alliance and the Aristocratic Alliance into the undead.

Therefore, their plan is actually two-step: first, turn all military and royal members into undead; second, turn everyone in the Sect Alliance and the Aristocratic Alliance into undead as well. At that point, the remaining members of the Sect Alliance and the Aristocratic Alliance will no longer be able to cause any trouble.

However, Gongliang Juewen still pretended to be unhappy. He glanced at General Li and then said, “General Li, wouldn’t dividing the troops into three routes be too dispersed?”

The reason he did this was to make the people of the Sect Alliance and the Aristocratic Family Alliance think that he opposed it. On the contrary, the people of the Aristocratic Family Alliance and the Sect Alliance would agree to it when they saw that he opposed it. This was because they were worried that Gongliang Juewen opposed dividing the troops into three routes in order to find an opportunity to weaken their power. Therefore, when they saw that Gongliang Juewen opposed it, they would support him with all their might.

As expected, when Qingxuan and Wanhai saw Gongliang Juewen’s objection, their eyes flashed with a sharp light. Wanhai stepped forward first and said in a deep voice, “Your Majesty, this old minister believes that dividing the troops into three routes is a good idea. The three routes can support each other and advance in unison. This will not only disperse the enemy’s forces more, but also allow for more varied attacks. Moreover, both aristocratic families and sects have their own unique fighting styles. If everyone acts together, the lack of coordination will weaken their fighting power. However, if everyone acts separately, this situation will not occur. Therefore, this old minister believes that dividing the troops is feasible.”

Qingxuan also stepped forward and said, “This minister seconds the proposal.”

Although Qingxuan and Wanhai did not attend court, they did hold honorary positions in the court, and their positions were not low. This is easy to understand. For example, in the Ministry of War, there are several Ministers of War, but only one Minister of War actually manages the affairs of the Ministry of War. The others are all just holding the title of Minister of War and do not actually do any work.

Qingxuan and Wanhai were in the same situation; they held official positions in the court, but they didn’t actually manage any affairs. In fact, Gongliang Juewen wouldn’t allow them to manage affairs in the court anyway. Giving them titles was just for convenience in meetings like this one.

But because they had these titles, it was acceptable for them to call themselves veteran officials, only their status was somewhat special.

Upon hearing what the two said, Gongliang Juewen’s face grew even more gloomy. He pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, “Alright, it’s settled then. We’ll split into three routes.”

Hearing Gongliang Juewen agree, Qingxuan and Wanhai couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief. In their view, this was the best outcome; at least this time, they didn’t have to worry about being tricked by Gongliang Juewen.

General Li then spoke up, “Your Majesty, I believe this attack should primarily utilize large-scale magical artifacts. Large-scale magical artifacts are the best choice for both offense and defense. Whether it’s the Myriad Laws Divine Sect or the sects and families that have allied with them, they are all small sects and families, and they lack large-scale magical artifacts. Their lack of large-scale magical artifacts gives us a significant advantage in attacking with them. Therefore, I believe we should use large-scale magical artifacts for our attack.”

Upon hearing General Li’s words, Qingxuan and Wanhai both nodded, agreeing with his reasoning. The Myriad Laws Divine Sect and those small sects and families indeed lacked large-scale magical artifacts. The Myriad Laws Divine Sect originally possessed the Creation Golden Wheel, but it was destroyed in a battle against other sects. Now they have no large-scale magical artifacts left. Using large-scale magical artifacts in their attack is inherently advantageous; with these artifacts, they can attack or defend as needed, making it the best offensive strategy.

Gongliang Juewen’s complexion had returned to normal by this time. After listening to General Li’s words, he thought for a moment, then nodded and said, “That’s true. Those traitors don’t have large-scale magical artifacts. Using large-scale magical artifacts to attack is like attacking from mobile bases. When attacking, our people can launch attacks from within the large-scale magical artifacts; when retreating, we can retreat back into the large-scale magical artifacts for defense. This is indeed the best method. Does everyone agree?” After speaking, Gongliang Juewen looked at everyone. He had actually seen Qingxuan and Wanfa nod, but he needed to ask them again, he needed them to say it themselves that they agreed. (End of Chapter)
