Capítulo 2053: Chapter 184: Seas of People, Part 2
There naturally exists a unique communication array in each prefecture of Sumr Country, present at a transcendent level. This facilitates the ruling of the Sumr Court over various regions. This communication channel connects every place, and it must possess uniqueness and non-replicability, penetrating through secret ti and space, implenting the exclusive will of the Sumr Court, free from invasion by any will that doesn’t et specific conditions, absolutely safe and reliable.
The so-called main communication channel of Sumr Country refers precisely to that.
Whether through voice patterns, Yuan Force, the five elents, or spatial connections… In any case, it has various complex constructs. For instance, the main communication channel within Qi Country is constructed based on Star Power, maintained by Ruan Qin.
The construction and essential information of the main communication channel within any country is invariably the country’s highest secret.
Finding it is not easy. Capturing it is a complex confrontation of the utmost complexity.
However, before the armies of both sides even engaged, Qi, under the leadership of Ruan Qin, had already preemptively destroyed the main communication channel within Sumr Country—arguably, this wasn’t too extraordinary, as when a war truly begins, the pressure of national force and the entanglent of military force an that communication cutoff is only a matter of ti. The extraordinary aspect lies in the timing…
Ruan Qin finished it too fast!
This ans the communication disadvantage for the Qi Army fighting away will be removed before noon tomorrow.
This holds significant aning for the entire war!
In a true war, the importance of battlefield communication is beyond doubt.
All efforts regarding communication from both sides are rely for one point—to construct one’s own communication channel while interrupting the enemy’s communication channel.
The easiest aspect to isolate among this is long-distance sound transmission.
Next are objects like heart letters.
Existences like the Taixu Illusion Realm were isolated in the first instance of preparations for war by both sides.
From sound, to Dao Techniques, to Spiritual Sense, extending to all levels of transcendent communication, it is virtually impossible to sustain during a national war.
Thus, in a real war, various devices like the thousand-mile sound-transmitting box or distant sound transmission secret technique are all useless. Information transmission still relies on the most primitive way, relying on humans to deliver and horses to send.
Humans themselves are the most reliable presence.
This is especially true during warti.
For Qi, the establishnt of communication channels mainly relies on those flag soldiers currently patrolling near Rongchong.
They ride demon horses bred by the Beast Taming Workshop, focusing solely on speed during the breeding, moving far faster than Inner Mansion cultivators, their maximum speed rivaling Outer Building cultivators!
Each flag soldier has tightly fitted trousers and light clothes, carrying three command flags, a circle of small flags tied at the waist, with everyone draped in red, riding like they are chasing red clouds.
Military communication relies on commands, on flags, on seals, on drums.
These flag soldiers have all broken through the Ascending Dragon Realm of the Heaven and Earth Gate. This flag army can almost be regarded as the entire lifeline of the Fa Xia army, implenting the will of the commander’s residence and maintaining the operation of a million-strong army.
“The Supervisor’s efficiency truly surprises ,” Cao Jie chuckled, also looking out the window like Ruan Qin did.
Ruan Qin’s voice ca from behind, speaking calmly: “Complying with heaven’s mandate naturally leads to success.”
Where his gaze landed, beneath the towering Rongchong, the crowd surged like the sea.
…
…
In the eyes of the powerful, the faces of each soldier composing the sea of humanity were clearly visible.
Yu Liyang sat at the highest point of the watchtower, quietly watching those armored and ard soldiers, suddenly thinking… After this battle, how many of them would he see again?
Such lancholy thoughts are indeed inappropriate, especially for a Yan Dao expert, they are rare.
But where his gaze fell, after all, were living, breathing people.
With their own parents and families, loves and hates, and unique lives.
Living soldiers were like ants, swarming up and down, busy constructing defenses.
Da Xia administrates through the six divisions: Ministry of Personnel, Ministry of Revenue, Ministry of Rites, Ministry of War, Ministry of Punishnts, and the Ministry of Works. Above them stand two State Pillars, with the Empress Dowager holding the reins.
State Minister Liu Xiyi concurrently manages all six divisions, and State Preceptor Chi ngfu co-manages the Ministry of Rites.
As for the Ministry of Works, it has always been the foundation of the Tai Clan.
Cultivators skilled in Earth Dao Techniques are gathered together here, performing arts under unified coordination, channeling and filling in ditches, piling earth to create walls.
Array masters from the Ministry of Works, clad in white robes, were carefully inscribing array patterns, rushing to construct protective arrays before the Qi Army arrived. Of course, the majority of these array masters were from the Tai Clan.
The young man nad Tai Yin was also among them, efficient and diligent, showing none of the arrogance of a noble son.
Everyone was working very hard.
This was Tong Yang City, belonging to Xiangyou Prefecture.
To the southeast was the Fengjie border prefecture.
Endless troops circled around the city, headed resolutely towards Fengjie.
However, Yu Liyang knew very well that Fengjie Prefecture couldn’t be defended…
The most perilous barrier of Fengjie Prefecture was Jianfeng Mountain.
Besides that, nothing but wide open plains.
But Jianfeng Mountain had long been demolished, the whole defensive system destroyed by Jiang ngxiong. From last year until now, the Ministry of Works had consud a large amount of resources, relentlessly trying to repair… but without a decade of effort, it could not restore its forr condition.
The decision to abandon Fengjie Prefecture and guard Xiangyou Prefecture was made jointly by Si Jiao and him.
But Fengjie Prefecture couldn’t be abandoned so easily; at the very least, it needed to buy so ti for Xiangyou Prefecture’s defensive construction, which was why so many troops were heading to Fengjie.
Their task wasn’t to repel the Qi Army, as it was impossible, but to turn Fengjie Prefecture into a quagmire, using their flesh and blood to delay the Qi army’s advance.
“What is King Min looking at?” Suddenly, a voice sounded nearby.
The guards were all standing in the distance, and in the wild winds atop the tower, an ancient and majestic man appeared before Yu Liyang.
The winds ceased.
Yu Liyang did not rise, simply responding: “People.”
Across the entire Sumr Country, only Wu King Si Jiao could appear beside him like that at this mont.
This Da Xia Prince, who was already 897 years old, had attained the rank of True Monarch two generations before Emperor Xia Xiang, establishing himself as a pillar of the nation. During Emperor Xia Xiang’s reign, he shone brilliantly. Behind the Gate of All Demons, in the Lost World, he accrued immortal rits.
Truly a resplendent era, Da Xia oppressed Wei and Liang, dared to question Xiong Chu, traveled to Gu Yang’s old lands, seeking supremacy in the East…
But back in that era, Si Jiao was just one of the many illustrious figures of Da Xia.
Now, he had beco the indispensable pillar of Sumr Country.
As for Si Jiao himself, the taste must be indescribable.
“Indeed.” Si Jiao followed Yu Liyang’s gaze downwards, sighing: “Without this war, among these people, perhaps so might also have had extraordinary futures.”
Yu Liyang said nothing for a mont.
Si Jiao suddenly remarked: “Jin Ling has requested to guard Jianfeng Mountain.”
“An Country’s Marquis…” Yu Liyang sighed, “Going to Chu with no success was not his fault, so why do this?”
The ordinary soldiers heading to Fengjie Prefecture could not know their fate.
But soone of Jin Ling’s caliber at the imperial level, naturally understood. That was a strategically abandoned place; what they guarded with their lives wasn’t Fengjie Prefecture, but ti.
Si Jiao simply said, “There must be soone guarding Jianfeng Mountain. We can’t just abandon it without swinging a blade or shooting an arrow.”
Yu Liyang stood up imdiately: “Let’s have go instead. An Country’s Marquis going there has no chance of life, and he probably can’t accomplish the strategic plan either.”
In the face of the massive Qi Army, to fulfill the plan of turning Fengjie Prefecture into a quagmire of blood and flesh, at least one True Man is needed.
However, in the current Sumr Country, where would they just sacrifice a True Man of the Age like that?
Jin Ling volunteered knowing he embraced death.
But so distances can’t be crossed by courage and will alone. For example, the hundred-mile abyss west of Jianfeng Mountain, which remains unfilled…
Jin Ling might not even be able to buy ti!
It would be different if King Min went personally; a True Monarch working with the existing works at Jianfeng Mountain should be able to delay for several tens of days at Fengjie Prefecture.
But, and there it is…
Yu Liyang, as Da Xia’s King Min and a True Monarch, acting too early would undoubtedly reveal more of his “Dao,” making it more observed and spied upon. This would increase his dangers in the war!
