Chapter 407: Changes in Kyushu's Luck [Subscription Request]

Across the borders of China, the tide of humanity is raging like flames, with clouds and winds surging.

Thousands of miles away, in the Xianbei territory, there was also good fortune, but it was affected by the changes in Shenzhou and seemed to be sucked away, causing it to weaken accordingly.

On a low hill, the high shaman priest looked far into the sky to the south.

"After the last defeat in the south, the fortunes of our Xianbei clan have shown signs of decline."

The Great Shaman seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be talking to someone:
“Back then, when chaos first emerged in Han territory, this kind of change also occurred, but it was the energy that migrated to our land.

It was you who first sensed the changes in the world and suggested that Tan Shihuai march south to lead the troops."

"After that, we won battle after battle, and our tribe's fortunes rose until we controlled all the tribes on the grassland."

"Will you take action again this time?"

Following the high priest's voice, a man suddenly appeared not far away.

This man was more than a head taller than the tall and thin high priest, with a strong physique and an extremely oppressive temperament.

He appeared on a low hill with his hands behind his back, looking far to the south. His slender eyes were bright and intimidating.

His face was almost perfectly handsome, and he seemed to be around forty years old, with eyes that showed a cold insight into the world.

He is Afu Yu, regarded by the Xianbei people as the strongest man of their time.

His actual age is over sixty.

But he looks at least twenty years younger than his actual age.

"You wanted to drive Tuoba Jiefen out of the Central Grassland, so you said you would lead your troops to defeat the Han people, and take the opportunity to divide his people and rally their hearts.

Have you ever thought that if you lose again, it will be the real downfall of your clan and it will be difficult to recover."

Afu Yu's voice was deep, like an ancient bell vibrating the void.

"Tuoba Jiefen and Yilou Tuo both went south, and were defeated so quickly and so badly, no one expected it."

“Bu Liugu came back and told me about the war in the south.

The leader of the Han people first lured them to split their forces into two battlefields in the east and west, and then attacked the center of the Xianbei, thus controlling the situation on the battlefield.

That Han commander's ability to command troops is far superior to that of ordinary generals."

"Besides, the Han army emerged from their own internal strife and have been through many battles."

"If we fight Han again, who will you let lead the troops?"

"When the Han Dynasty was in turmoil a few years ago, I said that we could take advantage of the turmoil and march south, where we could expect a great victory."

"In order to fight for power, you secretly supported Ajita and others in their fight against Tuoba Jiefen and Yilou Tuodu, and missed the opportunity to go south."

"Now that the Han people are strong, it is too late to deal with them."

Afu Yu frankly said all that he wanted to say.

High Priest:
"I just didn't expect the Han people to be able to rebuild their country in a few years. I thought the turmoil in Han territory and the change of dynasties would last at least a few decades, so we still have a chance."

"Afu Yu, you, like Tan Shihuai, have a strong appeal."

"I will gather all the tribes together and give them to you to lead. What do you think?"

Afu Yu had a blank expression on his face as he stared at the sky.

He was in resonance with the heaven and earth, and could feel a terrifying, heart-pounding force pressing in from the direction of Han territory with great momentum.

At this moment, the Han territory is like a giant beast that has awakened, ready to swallow up the vast fertile land of the grassland.

Even Afu, with a mind as solid as a rock, could not help but be moved.

……

People in Yizhou, the Western Regions and other places also felt the changes in Han territory.

Huang Zhong was in the newly established Protectorate of the Western Regions, looking eastward toward the heartland of Han territory:

"China has returned from chaos to order, and the signs of its great prosperity have arrived."

"The weather fluctuations between heaven and earth are so drastic, it must be related to the king."

After the New Year, Liu Bei, who was about to return to southern Xinjiang to continue his military operations, suddenly felt palpitations, as if there was a force of energy that was pressing on him and making it hard for him to breathe.

The land of southern Xinjiang.

Generals of the same level as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also have the same feeling.

"Second brother, even if we conquer Southern Xinjiang and let these southern barbarian soldiers serve you, can we really resist Cao Wei?"

Zhang Laosan blinked his big eyes and said, "Cao Wei has a great army and has never lost. What if we can't defeat them?"

Guan Yu was silent.

In another place, Zhuge Liang was also squinting his eyes and looking north.

His thoughts are changing little by little because of his experiences in the past two years.

"The great Wei's national fortune is rising again, affecting the whole world."

Pang Degong stood on one side and said:
"The King of Wei wants to unify China and establish a new dynasty.

We have watched what he has done over the years and found that most of them are good strategies.

If we continue to support Liu Xuande, we will be hindering the unification of China.

If foreigners take advantage of you, you will be cursed for eternity."

"Your fate of earning luck in the Dragon Prison Situation can hopefully break the situation if you cling to a real dragon."

Zhuge Liang also remained silent.

Yecheng Study.

After Cao Cao stopped practicing, he took out the Mountain and River Mirror for the second time and promoted the country's destiny.

The originally motionless image in the mirror began to change, and nine large bronze tripods appeared one after another, both square and round.

This time, Cao Cao transformed into an emperor and a true dragon, attracting the destiny of heaven and earth.

Looking through the mirror of mountains and rivers, the Nine Cauldrons were floating up from the depths of the earth.

The luck and fortune they carry is rising rapidly.

The locations of the Nine Cauldrons are like the nine sources of spiritual energy in the land of Shenzhou. If they change together, they will be able to cover Shenzhou.

In terms of destiny, at this moment in the land of Kyushu, with Jizhou as its center, the energy of heaven and earth is turning upside down.

After I establish my country, I will create a new era name... Cao Cao inexplicably had an idea to respond to the changes in the world.

In the afternoon, Diao Chan received a report from the maid and went to the inner treasury.

Wen Ji also returned to the inner house.

A private school was built on the wall of the backyard of Cao's mansion to teach children.

The students were members of the Cao family, including Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, as well as several important officials of Cao Wei, relatives, and other children of appropriate age in their families, aged four or five and above and seven or eight years old, totaling more than twenty people.

Her Royal Highness the Princess Royal is the leader among them.

The main reason is that her father is incredibly powerful and no one dares to mess with him.

The other children were warned by their families not to fight at school, and not to fight with the Princess, otherwise their father would be beheaded.

Wen Ji cared about her children at home and worked as a female scholar herself to teach them literature. She would go there early when the time came.

There were two classes a day. The one who taught the children how to write was Zhong Yao, who would come over whenever he had free time.

The scholars who attended to study literature were the eldest princess' step-grandfather Cai Yong and her stepmother Cai Wenji, and sometimes the great scholar Zheng Xuan also went.

Wen Ji and Diao Chan each had something to do, so they both left.

The only people left in the study were Zhen Mi, Boss Cao, and Yin.

The girl was sorting books aside.

Yin tilted his huge tiger head, looked at Cao Cao, then looked at Zhen Mi, and suddenly let out a low growl, causing Zhen Mi to look at him. Then he put his two paws together and rubbed them back and forth over and over again.

Zhen Mi was surprised and asked, "What is Yin doing?"

"It's implying you." Cao Cao kicked Yin lightly.

In those days, when no one was in the study, Cao Cao and Diao Chan always did shameless things.

Yin saw the scene and felt it was familiar, so he reminded Zhen Mi to come over quickly and hand over her hands to Cao Cao.

That's what it means when its two big tiger paws rub back and forth.

This isn't the first time.

Zhen Mi looked at Cao Cao and seemed to understand something. Her little face almost turned red. She lowered her head and dared not say a word.

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the study, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."

After reporting, Jia Xu came in from outside: "News from the east."

The so-called east refers to Mahan and Jinhan across the sea.

Cao Cao asked Lu Su to be in charge of attacking the two places, and the Liaodong governor Gongsun Du summoned Fuyu to cooperate.

Lu Su first used courtesy and then force, and sent a letter of surrender to Chen Han and Ma Han.

The two places were made to submit to Han, incorporated into Han territory, and pay tribute every year.

Between Mahan and Jinhan, there is a small place called Byeonhan. In its southern coastal area, they are collectively called the Three Han.

After receiving Lu Su's letter of surrender, the three parties were shocked and horrified.

They knew that there was a big country across the sea to the west, with a territory thousands of miles long.

After receiving Lu Su's letter of surrender, they replied saying that they were willing to pay tribute.

But they will never give up their ancestral heritage or become vassals to others.

The wording was soft but firm, indicating that the country would not belong to the Great Wei and would cancel its name.

They have the courage to do this for two main reasons.

First of all, it is geographically separated by the sea.

It is extremely difficult to fight across the sea in this era, and they don’t believe that the Wei Dynasty can raise a large army.

To the north, the area bordering Liaodong County had the highest mountains and rivers in Korea, which served as natural barriers.

While Liaodong Governor Gongsun Du has been befriending Buyeo in recent years, he also has ambitions to expand southward.

However, he was blocked by natural barriers and it was difficult for him to continue attacking the Three Kingdoms of Korea after he expanded southwards to Lelang County.

When he received the news that Wei was planning to take over the Three Han territories, he wrote to Cao Cao, saying that the Three Han territories were mostly mountainous, easy to defend but difficult to attack, and that there were many snakes and insects, making it difficult to use troops there, and asked Cao Cao to be cautious.

Precisely because of the geographical advantage and the difficulty in being conquered, the Three Han states dared to resist boldly.

Their reply was sent to Lu Su, who then reported it.

Jia Xu showed the letter to Cao Cao.

The content was written jointly by the leaders of the Three Han States, saying that although their country is small, they are not afraid of a deadly battle, nor are they afraid of powerful forces.

If Wei wanted to bully their small country by relying on its strength, they would mobilize all their clans to fight, would not be afraid of war, and would not pay tribute.

This letter of refusal to surrender clearly expressed their fearless attitude.

And indirectly put forward conditions to Wei.

On the one hand, they are not afraid to fight to the death, and on the other hand, they are willing to pay tribute.

Use both soft and hard tactics.

In their view, Wei should choose to accept tribute and give up annexing them.

After reading the letter, Cao Cao thought to himself that it was a good thing that he was not afraid of power, refused to accept the toast, and was beaten lightly.

He threw the letter aside:
"Tell Lu Su and the generals on the front lines to be more harsh on the foreigners. After conquering the Han territory, pick up the young and strong people and transport them to the mines.

They have a strong sense of servility and can work hard in mining if they are well trained.

Don’t waste the troops and ships of the Three Kingdoms of Korea. When you attack Japan later, drive them to land early and treat them as consumables.”

Jia Xu bowed and agreed, then passed the order to Lu Su.

Afternoon application time.

Cao Cao left his mansion and went to the military camp on the outskirts of the city to inspect the armaments.

Cao Wei's military industry is trying to make a recurve bow to see if it can further increase the range and power of the crossbow.

A recurve bow has an additional reverse curvature design on the bow arm, and it is not difficult to make.

Cao Cao went to see it and found that samples had already been produced.

Now that you have a recurve bow, you can try a compound bow. The initial plan is to add two guide rings on both sides of the bow arm.

After Cao Cao went to check on the military equipment, he returned to his mansion. It was already night time.

He was thinking about something and went to Zou Yuan's room first.

On the same night, Lu Su, who had made arrangements in advance and had been prepared, was ordered to take action and march to the land of the Three Han under the banner of the Wei Dynasty.

Without Cao Cao, the Great Wei could not push the Sendai pattern and display its full speed.

But since Cao Cao used the Xiantai seal, the Xiantai pattern on the ship has been perfected.

Its speed is also far beyond that of ordinary ships in the world.

But in Yecheng, a strange thing happened that night.

Late at night, Cao Cao was in his bedroom, having a pleasant conversation with Yu Qing.

Changes come suddenly.

thump—

There was a loud bang.

The entire Cao Mansion was shaken.

The second loud bang followed, and Cao Cao's bed almost collapsed due to the violent earthquake.

dong dong!

Several loud noises followed one after another, shaking the earth.

"What's wrong?" Yu Qing asked in surprise.
