During this period, although Wang Zhifan had been closely monitoring the war situation, since the territory influenced by Feng Country had expanded many tis over, he mostly delegated the affairs to his troops and players. He seldom personally handled matters as he used to.
But now, the buffer zone between Huang Country and his dominion, Feng Country, had gradually disappeared, and the war was visibly becoming more intense. He knew he had to step in; otherwise, he feared his subordinates might not be able to withstand the situation. He didn’t quite believe in Shenfengzi’s assertion that he would inevitably win.
Before leaving for the front lines, he had to make arrangents for his main base, as his tireless efforts for over a month had produced preliminary results—his queen had begun experiencing morning sickness and was confird pregnant by the court physicians.
Along with the queen, many of her handmaidens who ca with her also beca pregnant, a situation that surprised both the queen and the physicians. However, as soone who had a close bond with her personal maids, Rou Che didn’t mind this occurrence much and quickly accepted the situation. After all, she was also pregnant, and her unique position as the main palace was firmly established.
"Queen, during my absence, I entrust you with assisting in the decision-making for Feng Country’s dostic affairs. You’ve studied this field since childhood, and with the help of the old grand chancellor and other ministers, I’m confident you can handle it well."
At this mont, in the grand hall, Wang Zhifan spoke to his queen with a hint of apology. Although she had been queen for less than two months and was pregnant, for future developnt, he had to assign so power and responsibility to her.
"Okay, Your Majesty, please be cautious in the war outside. I’ll help take good care of dostic matters."
Wearing her phoenix robe, Rou Che understood that Wang Zhifan had no other choice during this ti of war and solemnly expressed her willingness to undertake this responsibility.
"Old grand chancellor, the queen is pregnant. For less critical matters, you only need to update her with docunts regularly. Don’t overburden her."
Wang Zhifan then looked toward his appointed internal affairs auxiliary minister, the first NPC he t in this scenario, who was the person he trusted most because, during his weakest monts, this NPC supported him fully. Now that Feng Country had developed into one of the top powers in the Chaotic Realm, this person would only give his utmost effort.
"Rest assured, Your Majesty, the old minister will not disappoint your trust."
The old grand chancellor earnestly replied. In his view, Wang Zhifan, the sole heir of the Feng royal family, was like a family mber. Now that the heir was about to have descendants, how could he not be happy and willing to support the soon-to-be mother of the future prince?
After delegating these matters, Wang Zhifan secretly left two Dream Avatars to guard the palace, then swiftly rode his Red Deer Horse toward Huan and Lv Countries to command a new batch of Divine Pattern soldiers and Dragon Cavalry to the front lines.
In recent months, since Mr. Feng and other capable subordinates were sent south to fight, the training of new troops was conducted by newly promoted talents. Yet, Wang Zhifan wasn’t concerned about the training quality of the new army. He had secretly sent avatars to investigate multiple tis and knew that these recently recruited talents were exceptional in quality. Furthermore, based on his investigations, there were likely few spies from Huang Country. Instead, they were individuals attracted by the rise of Feng Country, eager to fulfill their ambitions.
"We can’t delay any longer. If we keep delaying, the scenario might introduce earthquakes and floods to increase difficulty or directly create so invincible giant weapon for Huang Country."
On his way to the barracks, Wang Zhifan considered whether he could continue stalling, providing a chance to watch his children grow. However, knowing the typical patterns of scenarios, he realized they were reaching an end point. Delaying further would only invite trouble, a lesson many players had verified through experience.
"In that case, let’s defeat Huang Country with the utmost speed! They must have prepared a massive army to challenge ... At the sa ti, I have to be wary of them causing trouble on my ho front... The two avatars I’ve secretly arranged should ensure the safety of the queen and others, while the remaining avatars can monitor other areas. It’s not too difficult for at present."
It’s worth ntioning that over the past few months, Wang Zhifan finally experienced an improvent in his abilities. He had reached Level 6 of the Great Dream Saber Scripture. This progress not only made his Dream Avatars stronger, allowing them to operate over greater distances, but also enabled him to master one of the core abilities of the Great Dream Saber Scripture—a top-tier blade technique known as "Epheral as Dreams."
The reason Wang Zhifan regarded this blade technique as top-tier is that it truly touches the core aspect of the Great Dream Saber Scripture—being able to cut through the boundary between reality and illusion with the saber in hand, conceptually eliminating certain enemies, thereby manifesting the mystical and enigmatic power of this Mystical Blade Skill.
"I hope there are sufficiently formidable enemies on Huang Country’s side to let use this move... but I feel the chance is slim."
It’s not that Wang Zhifan was arrogant. Upon careful consideration, any enemy that could force him to use "Epheral as Dreams" must be extrely formidable, and during his tenure in this scenario, he hadn’t encountered any such opponents. Even factoring in all the players was of no avail.
With this slight sense of lancholy, in the following days, Wang Zhifan gathered the army built for the final battle—60,000 Divine Pattern soldiers urgently assembled in Huan Country and 20,000 Dragon Cavalry barely ford in Lv Country.
Although the sum of these two troop categories didn’t reach 100,000, making this army seem sowhat lacking, when considering additional auxiliary forces such as scouts, archers, spearn, and logistics guards, this grand army totaled 300,000 strong! In this world, it unquestionably represented formidable military power!
Considering the extraordinary combat capabilities of the Divine Pattern Army and Dragon Cavalry, this 300,000-strong army was capable of annihilating a conventional army of a million from other countries! This claim is no exaggeration!
Commanding such a large army couldn’t possibly be managed by Wang Zhifan alone. In reality, he only appeared before the soldiers once to boost their morale. Most of the ti, the task of detailed command was left to the generals and strategists in the camp.
These talents from various countries followed his instructions to lead the entire army to the front lines, while he leveraged the convenience of the Dream Avatars to scout the surroundings, supervising each unit to ensure they didn’t stray or get lost, making the march smoother for the generals and strategists.
This march took half a month before reaching the front lines, where they successfully rendezvoused with Mr. Liou, who had occupied Fu Country. Incidentally, they made this disobedient country pay dearly, emptying the national treasury’s grain stores for the Feng Country Army.
"Your Majesty, Huang Country’s artillery is potent, and ours really can’t compare. Mr. Feng’s army has suffered significant losses recently, so it’s best to send a reinforcent unit to assist."
Upon seeing Wang Zhifan in person, soone whose life he owed to Wang Zhifan’s earlier rescue, offered this suggestion, clearly aware of the latest battle conditions.
"Beloved minister, feel free to deploy troops according to your strategy. I’ll retain my usual role of providing support wherever needed."
Wang Zhifan was well aware that he wasn’t skilled in leading troops into battle, so he refrained from interfering with Mr. Liou, a professional adept through battlefield experience, allowing him to arrange strategic tactics freely. anwhile, he settled into his most familiar rhythm.
This situation illustrates the benefits of possessing significant personal strength. Since Wang Zhifan’s combat prowess surpassed that of his army, he had no concerns about power struggles and didn’t need to overly guard against his subordinates, allowing them to act freely. This made the Feng Country Army more efficient compared to other countries, responding more swiftly to changes in the battlefield dynamics.
