Chapter 2631 A Gathering of Stars, System Mission

Of the three armies marching south, Yue Fei's army was the largest, with the other two combined not even reaching half the size of Yue Fei's. This effectively handed over the command of this battle to Yue Fei.

This talisman also granted him the nominal power of the commander-in-chief of the entire army.

With this tally, it meant that the nearly 1.4 million troops marching south would all be under Yue Fei's command.

Even for high-ranking generals like Xue Rengui and Bai Qi, or those nearing high rank, Yue Fei had the power of life and death over them. If either of them violated military law, Yue Fei could execute them on the spot without reporting to the court, if necessary.

Yue Fei accepted the talisman with both hands, held it to his chest, knelt down and bowed. His figure, dressed in black, prostrated himself on the gold bricks, his voice as steady as a rock.

"Your Majesty, I will certainly not fail in your trust."

"Hulü Guang, you are the deputy general of the central army!" Wang Yu said, looking at General Hulü Guang.

"Your subject obeys!" Hulü Guang rose and stepped forward.

Although he didn't get the head coach position this time, he wasn't too disappointed.

After all, among the five generals present, his chances were the lowest. Although he was also a general of a field army, his achievements were significantly less than the others.

Although he had hoped that this important task would fall on his shoulders, his expectations were actually limited. Precisely because he didn't have the same high expectations as the remaining few people, he wasn't as disappointed at this moment.

"Kongming." After arranging the generals for the southern expedition, Wang Yu turned his attention to several civil officials.

"The army that will conquer the south numbers a million. Supplies must go first. The three armies will be transported over a thousand miles. All arrangements will be under your full responsibility."

As Wang Yu spoke, Zhao Gao gestured to him, and Zhao Gao immediately presented him with a long sword. The scabbard was dark and plain, with no decorations except for a dark gold dragon inlaid on the hilt.

"This sword is for you." Wang Yu took it, held it in his hand, and continued speaking to Zhuge Liang.

"Any official of the fourth rank or below who delays the supply of provisions, embezzles military supplies, or neglects his duties may be executed first and reported later. All officials of the prefectures and counties shall regard you as if you were the Emperor. No one shall be allowed to fail in matters concerning provisions."

Zhuge Liang stepped forward, took the long sword with both hands, and held it to his chest. His expression remained unchanged, showing no excitement at receiving such great power. He simply bowed deeply.

"Your subject obeys the decree. The provisions will not run out, and the army will have no worries. If anything goes wrong, your subject will offer his head to you."

Wang Yu nodded, signaling him to return to his seat. He had absolute confidence in Zhuge Liang's abilities.

Firstly, provisions are the lifeblood of an army's march and battle. If an army has problems with its provisions, then no matter how strong its fighting power or how many people it has, it will ultimately be nothing more than a rabble.

Secondly, it was also to further restrict Yue Fei's supply lines. As long as the supply lines were cut off, even if the generals at the front commanded large armies, there was no need to worry about what they could do.

Thus, Zhuge Liang was appointed to be in charge of the provisions for the southern expedition.

In preparation for this battle against the Great Qian Dynasty, the Great Han Dynasty had not only been preparing for many years, but had also played almost all the cards it could.

This southward campaign against Qian not only involved most of the country's field armies, but also brought together a constellation of brilliant generals.

In total, four god-level commanders were deployed across all the armies: Yue Fei, Xue Rengui, Bai Qi, and Wu Qi. Furthermore, four god-level strategists were also employed: in addition to Zhang Liang and Chen Ping already in Xingbei Road, Zhang Bin and Wang Changluo would also join the southward march of the Great Qian army.

In other words, Wang Changluo joined this battle as a strategist, not as a commander. Otherwise, the Han Dynasty would have deployed five god-level commanders this time.

As for the number of fierce generals, the combined forces of the three routes numbered even more.

Along Bai Qi's journey, five god-level generals participated in the battle: Li Cunxiao, Zhu Quan, Leonidas, Xu Chu, and Lancelot.

Along Xue Rengui's journey, there were five god-level generals who participated in the battle, including Xing Tian, ​​Deng Jiugong, Huang Feihu, and Huang Tianhua. If you include Xue Rengui himself, the number is also as high as five.

Along Yue Fei's journey, the number of god-like generals was even greater, including Wu Changkong, Yang Zaixing, Huang Mei, Ma Sui, Huang Pao, Wang Feng, Pei Yuanqing, Zhang Guifang, Pallas, and many others.

Two of the five Great True God Generals of the Han Dynasty have been promoted, and these two are both among the top three of the five Great True God Generals of the Han Dynasty: one is a peak True God General, and the other is a final-stage True God General.

As for the remaining three, Hou Yi was transferred back to Zhongxing Pass after the war against the barbarians ended.

As the first line of defense against the Tuoba tribe, Wang Yu would never feel at ease without a general of god-like caliber guarding the front.

The Han Dynasty was not afraid of the Tuoba tribe, nor was it afraid of fighting them. In terms of national strength, the Han Dynasty had already surpassed the Shuo Dynasty.

There's just no need to fight them.

Even if we fight a war with Da Shuo, what benefit would it bring to the Han Dynasty?

At most, they could take over the territory of Shanyin. At this stage, the Han Dynasty did not have the foundation to intervene in the grasslands.

To put it bluntly, even if they defeat Da Shuo, they won't be able to hold onto the grasslands, and even if they do, they won't be able to maintain it for long.

Fighting against the Great Shuo would only drag the country into a quagmire, deplete its national strength, and slow down the process of unifying the world. For the Great Han, it would serve no other purpose.

At this time, Yang Jian was still in Zhongping Road. From Tianlang Pass to the former territory of the Dongyi, in the entire northeast of the Han Dynasty, Yang Jian was the only master left who could be counted.

In fact, apart from Yang Jian, there are only a few other god-level generals left; they have almost all been drawn away.

The last one, Li Yuanba, would naturally have to stay by Wang Yu's side.

Although Wang Yu will not be on the front lines for an extended period during this battle, he will still take Li Yuanba to the front lines for a while if problems arise in the west or northwest.

Li Yuanba's main purpose in this battle was to defend against Da Wu and Da Shuo.

Especially for the Great Wu, once the Great Han launches its southward campaign, the Great Wu's intervention will almost certainly become inevitable.

As for Da Wu, Wang Yu planned to appoint Li Jing as the commander-in-chief, in charge of Chang Yuchun, Su Dingfang, and Wang Jian's troops, and to be responsible for the defense lines in the west and northwest.

"Ding, the host has initiated the war against Qian. The system mission is now issued. Mission 1: Destroy Qian and completely destroy the Great Qian. The reward is one Dynasty Summoning Card, one God-level Summoning Card, one Martial Attribute Point (which can support the breakthrough from Heaven-level to God-level, but does not support the breakthrough from God-level), and one Command Attribute Point (which can support the breakthrough from Heaven-level to God-level, but does not support the breakthrough from God-level)."

"Task Two: Seize Territory. There are eighteen territories in the Great Qian Dynasty. For every five territories seized, you will be rewarded with a random summon card."
