Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16402

Chapter 16400: Preparing for a Counterattack

In fact, whether it’s a major sect or a powerful family, they are all filled with factions. Major sects have various families, and powerful families have different branches vying for power. It can be said that although major sects and powerful families appear large, their interests have already been divided up. Therefore, if kingdom-level experts join these major sects or powerful families, although it may seem glamorous on the surface, they don’t actually gain much real benefit.

Joining the Eight Tigers Sect is different. The Eight Tigers Sect is newly established, practically a blank slate. The sect’s interests haven’t been divided up yet. If they join the Eight Tigers Sect, they might be able to establish their own family in the future. Therefore, from this perspective, joining the Eight Tigers Sect is the most worthwhile.

Meanwhile, Chang Jun had been keeping a close eye on their situation. They were recruiting a considerable number of rogue cultivators into their sect every day, but this posed no real threat to the major sects and families. To deal with those major sects or families, they still needed to attack the Divine Kingdom.

Thinking of this, Chang Jun summoned Xu Ying and the others. Once everyone was there, he said, “I’ve called you all here to discuss attacking the Divine Kingdom. Recently, a large number of rogue cultivators have entered the Divine Kingdom. Although they’ve all become our allies, it’s not good for us to remain passive. So, I plan to take the initiative.”

Xu Ying and the others perked up. Xu Ying said, “Uncle Chang, how do we plan to attack? We’ve been defending for days; it’s so boring. I think we should attack.” The others all nodded in agreement.

Chang Jun smiled slightly and said, “It’s actually quite simple. This time, I plan to target Thousand Lotus Mountain for our attack.”

Upon hearing Chang Jun’s words, Xu Ying and the others’ expressions changed. They immediately understood what Chang Jun meant. Thousand Lotus Mountain was indeed a good choice. Thousand Lotus Mountain had always been a border. This side of Thousand Lotus Mountain was their territory, while the other side was the territory of the Divine Kingdom. The Divine Kingdom had deployed a large number of sentries there, so Thousand Lotus Mountain was actually under their control. If they could take Thousand Lotus Mountain, their territory would expand significantly. Most importantly, by taking Thousand Lotus Mountain, they would gain a strategic advantage. Thousand Lotus Mountain would then become a defensive line, and it would not be easy for the Divine Kingdom’s rogue cultivators to directly attack their area as they were doing now.

Thinking of this, Xu Ying and the others all nodded. Xu Ying said, “Qianhe Mountain is indeed a good choice, but it’s not so easy to take. The Qianhe Mountain range is vast, and the peaks are very high. Most importantly, the Divine Kingdom has deployed a large number of hidden sentries there. Taking Qianhe Mountain will not be an easy task.”

Chang Jun nodded and said, “I know it’s not easy, but as long as we plan well, taking Qianhe Mountain isn’t as difficult as we imagine. My idea is that we first select the highest peaks in Qianhe Mountain, then list them out. When we attack, we’ll use the Creation Golden Wheel to lead our men and directly occupy those peaks. Then, we’ll use the Creation Golden Wheel to temporarily form a…” “We’ll establish a defensive array. Our forces will use those mountain peaks as nodes to attack the entire Qianhe Mountain area, eliminating all the Divine Kingdom’s hidden sentries within Qianhe Mountain and completely taking it over. What do you all think?”

An elder, after listening to Chang Jun’s words, thought for a moment and then spoke up: “It’s feasible. I think this method is feasible. We’ll use the Creation Golden Wheel to set up an array, first building a defensive array, and then constructing an underground base, turning the entire Qianhe Mountain into a massive base. This is absolutely feasible and won’t arouse suspicion from those major sects and families, because we’re using methods that the Divine Kingdom already possesses. They just never imagined we would take Qianhe Mountain first, so I think it’s feasible.” The others all nodded in agreement; they also thought it was feasible.

Chang Jun glanced at everyone and then said, “If everyone has no objections, then we’ll start sending people to Thousand Lotus Mountain for reconnaissance. We need to find out how many peaks in the Thousand Lotus Mountain range we must capture, how many of the Divine Kingdom’s sentries there are, and where they are located. Once we have all this information, we can take action.”

Everyone responded, and then they discussed the details of the reconnaissance. Afterward, Xu Ying and the others left to arrange for people to conduct the reconnaissance.

Taking over a mountain range like Thousand Lotus Mountain wouldn’t be an easy task for the Blood Slaughter Sect, because their radar would be greatly affected in such a place. Therefore, to take over Thousand Lotus Mountain and find all the Divine Kingdom’s sentries there, they could only rely on the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples to conduct reconnaissance slowly; radar alone wouldn’t suffice.

Fortunately, the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples were already quite adept at such tasks, so they immediately began their operation. A large number of Blood Slaughter Sect disciples entered Thousand Lotus Mountain. During their reconnaissance, they couldn’t use the same methods as those of the Divine Kingdom. They employed the Blood Slaughter Sect’s techniques: shrinking their bodies and using magic arrays to conceal themselves, making them undetectable to the Divine Kingdom’s sentries. This allowed them to conduct reconnaissance of Thousand Lotus Mountain undetected.

In ten days, the Blood Slaughter Sect disciples had thoroughly investigated the situation on Thousand Lotus Mountain. There were 1,571 peaks in Thousand Lotus Mountain, of which 76 were essential to capture. As for sentries, the number was vast—over 3,000 sentry posts throughout the entire Thousand Lotus Mountain range, each with more than one person. It was clear that the Divine Kingdom had truly invested heavily in Thousand Lotus Mountain.

However, all of these situations have now been obtained by the Blood Slaughter Sect. Chang Jun and his team have also created a complete map projection of Thousand Lotus Mountain. When Chang Jun placed this map projection in the middle of the conference room, it attracted everyone’s attention.

Chang Jun looked at the projection and said to everyone, “Alright, everyone, take a look at this projection. Pay attention, the red peaks are the places we must capture, and the small red dots are their sentry positions.”

Everyone nodded. They carefully examined the peaks they needed to capture, and then looked at the overall terrain of Qianhe Mountain. They all nodded in agreement. These peaks were well-chosen. Some of them weren’t the highest, but capturing them would allow them to control several surrounding peaks. It could be said that all the peaks were carefully selected.

As for the Divine Kingdom’s sentries, Xu Ying and the others didn’t care. As long as they knew the locations of the sentries, they could eliminate them later.

Xu Ying stared at the map projection for a while before turning to Chang Jun and asking, “Uncle Chang, shall we proceed according to the original plan?”

Chang Jun nodded and replied, “That’s right. We’ll proceed with our attack according to the original plan, but we must keep a close eye on the situation in the Divine Kingdom. Once they know we’ve captured the peaks of Thousand Lotus Mountain, they’ll definitely send people to reclaim them. So what we need to do is first establish bases on those peaks, using the Creation Golden Wheel to create a defensive array to cover the mountains. At the same time, our people should immediately begin building underground bases to prevent the Divine Kingdom from reclaiming Thousand Lotus Mountain.”

Everyone nodded. Chang Jun continued, “Now, let’s allocate the peaks. Everyone must be mobilized this time. We must completely occupy the peaks we’ve marked as quickly as possible. Remember, it’s complete occupation. Even if the Divine Kingdom sends out many people to reclaim them, we absolutely cannot let them take them back.”

Everyone agreed. Chang Jun spoke up, “We need to make good use of the Creation Golden Wheel. First, we need to create a defensive shield to cover those mountains. Then, we need our people to build underground bases. As soon as the underground bases are habitable, the Creation Golden Wheel will enter them immediately and transform into a teleportation array. That way, even if the people from the Divine Kingdom come, they won’t be able to touch Thousand Lotus Mountain.”

Everyone nodded again. Chang Jun continued, “The Divine Kingdom will definitely attack Thousand Lotus Mountain immediately. This time, we will absolutely not retreat. We will fight them in the underground base. I want to see how many casualties the people from the Divine Kingdom can withstand. Everyone go back and spread the word. Prepare for three days. After three days,

we will completely occupy Thousand Lotus Mountain.” Everyone responded, then stood up, bowed to Chang Jun, and turned to leave. Chang Jun immediately contacted Gongliang Juewen, who answered the phone right away.

Chang Jun said to Gongliang Juewen, “Three days from now, we will attack Qianhe Mountain and take it. You know how important Qianhe Mountain is to this war. Your job is to send men to seize Qianhe Mountain as soon as you learn of this. You don’t need to worry about the rest.”

Gongliang Juewen was taken aback by Chang Jun’s words, then his expression changed. He looked at Chang Jun and said, “Take Qianhe Mountain? You’re going to launch a full-scale attack? Qianhe Mountain is actually a buffer zone we left behind.” “Now that you’re going to destroy this buffer zone, we’ll have no choice but to attack relentlessly.”

Chang Jun laughed and said, “That’s exactly what we want you to do. So I told you not to worry about the rest. Just attack according to your normal plans. The sect is never worried about attrition.”

Gongliang Juewen responded, and Chang Jun hung up the phone. After Chang Jun hung up, Gongliang Juewen thought for a moment and decided not to tell General Li the news. General Li would need a genuine reaction, and by not telling him, he would have the most authentic reaction.
