Conquering Myriad Worlds from the Mythical Three Kingdoms

Mu Yi was very sad.

The Xinghan Empire is at its peak and is thriving.

Obviously everything was moving in a good direction, but Mu Yi felt like he was doomed.

The infinite resurrection caused by the anti-summoning ritual was already a disaster. I didn't expect Han Xin and others to create another Zerg disaster. Looking at Huang Tianji beside him, the robot crisis seems not impossible.

There is a powerful enemy like the Mongol Empire outside and an unstable vassal state like the Roman Empire inside. The country is obviously expanding, but why does Mu Yi feel like sitting on pins and needles?

"That does not work!"

Mu Yi thought deeply and convened a court meeting.

Gathering all the civil and military officials in Luoyang together, Mu Yi felt that he had to do something and the empire needed to do something.

He doesn't want to sit there and wait for death. Today, Han Xin and his friends can have fun with the Zerg Scourge, but one day, the real Zerg Scourge may really come to their door.

A strong sense of crisis prompted Mu Yi, a fallen fish, to turn things around.

"See the Emperor!"

A group of civil and military officials came to see Mu Yi without knowing why. Looking at Mu Yi's serious face, they were all speechless and didn't know what was going on.

"Let's talk about it after everyone gathers together!" Mu Yi waved his hand to signal the guards to give these ministers seats.

In the informal court meeting, it was more like a tea party, where everyone basically sat down and talked about things. Usually Mu Yi would only call two or three people, but this time there were a lot of people.

"What happened?" Xu Shu asked Jia Xu with a puzzled look on his face.

"I don't know!" Jia Xu looked helpless. Everyone treated him as a notepad, so almost everyone who came to the meeting would ask him the same question.

"Have we called all the people near Luoyang here this time?" Xu Shu raised his eyebrows. If even Jia Xu didn't know about this, then it seemed like a big problem.

“There are so many new faces I don’t recognize!”

"It's been so many years, even if you are raising a pig, it's almost time for it to be slaughtered. Otherwise, if you are transferred away, who will replace you?" Jia Xu was not surprised.

Most of the noble families in the Central Plains were kicked out of the country, and those who took their place were naturally the scholars trained by Huang Tian.

During the period of external expansion, Xu Shu and his men were developing in the rear.

If it weren't for the suppression by Xu Shu, Guo Jia and others, the powerful families in such ruined places as Jiangdong, Yizhou and Jingzhou would not be able to stay so quiet.

Clean the house before inviting guests, Guo Jia, Xu Shu and others carried this out to the extreme.

"Huh? Spiritual talent? That's rare!" Xu Shu took a quick look and found that an unfamiliar spiritual counselor just walked in.

You know, he had been stationed in Xuzhou for so long and had not cultivated a spiritual adviser. He did not expect that after returning to Luoyang, he would casually meet a completely stranger.

"Liu Ba, courtesy name Ziche, is from Lingling, Jingzhou. He was recently transferred from Jingzhou to Luoyang. It is said that he is very smart in economics. Jingzhou's economy is developing very well, so he was specially transferred to Luoyang to adjust the economic development plans of some regions!"

"Awesome!" Xu Shu exclaimed. His biggest headache in Xuzhou was the economy. Although he was good at handling government affairs, he was ultimately good at military affairs, and government affairs really gave him a headache.

"But... the last name is Liu?" Xu Shu raised his eyebrows.

"He is considered a member of the royal family, but he has no intention of restoring the Han Dynasty and is unwilling to follow Liu Bei and his men to the Five Barbarians."

"What a strange man!" Xu Shu nodded without saying anything more.

Mu Yi had allowed him to serve as an official in Luoyang, so there was no need for him to say anything more.

"Who is that?" Xu Shu turned his head and saw an unfamiliar spiritual counselor. He was stunned.

"Jiang Wan, whose courtesy name is Gongyan, is from Xiangxiang, Lingling. He was transferred here together with Liu Ba. He is currently handling government affairs under me. He is a diligent person!" Jia Xu said casually.

Jiang Wan noticed the gazes of Jia Xu and Xu Shu, bowed slightly, and then took a seat under the guidance of the guards.

"Wenhe! Yuanzhi!" As he spoke, Guo Jia walked in from outside the door, saluted to Mu Yi, and sat down next to Jia Xu and Xu Shu.

"What happened? A local problem?" Guo Jia asked casually. He was called back in a hurry and was confused about the situation.

"The situation in various places is fine. There is no chaos. The integration of villages and villages has been completed well. Bandits in various places are almost extinct. Even if there are problems, they are all minor problems. The local government can handle them without waking us up!"

Jia Xu recalled the following official documents he had handled and briefly described his recent understanding of various places.

Xinghan developed rapidly internally, and coupled with strong crackdowns, thieves and bandits in various places were almost wiped out.

Especially the pirates on the Yangtze River. There used to be people like Gan Ning and Zhou Tai, but now even their shadow can be seen.

As long as they can make a living, not many people are willing to do things like occupying a mountain and becoming the king. The overall social order is also becoming more peaceful due to the improvement of the law.

It is rare to hear about wrongful convictions, but at the grassroots level, bureaucratic corruption is still rampant.

Currently, academic masters such as the Hundred Schools of Thought are studying these issues, hoping to make improvements in the system and solve the problems as much as possible.

The civil and military officials who were still in Luoyang all entered the court in groups of three or four, chatting with each other, and then took their seats and waited quietly for Mu Yi to speak.

However, the secret technique of transmitting sound into ears had never stopped, and it was obvious that everyone was somewhat uncertain about the sudden court meeting.

"Okay, almost everyone who's supposed to come has arrived, and the rest have official duties to attend to, so let's get started!"

Mu Yi looked at Huang Tianji, and after the other party gave an affirmative answer, he knocked on the table and spoke calmly.

Everyone immediately held their breath, waiting for Mu Yi's next words.

"Go through the process first, and raise any questions you have!" Mu Yi said after looking around.

Officials in charge such as Jia Xu quickly reported the latest situation, and Mu Yi approved all of them with answers such as "hmm" and "not bad".

There is nothing much to say about this. The level of government affairs handled by Jia Xu and others is still very reliable, and there is no need for Mu Yi to comment on anything.

Besides, this type of reporting work has already been handled. If Mu Yi is willing to ask for details, Huang Tianji will cooperate with the reporter to retrieve the information, the reporter will give an explanation, and Mu Yi will nod in approval.

After going through the whole process, Mu Yi fell into deep thought.

He originally thought that by gathering everyone together for a brainstorming session, they would be able to come up with something to do next, but after going through the process, he felt like he didn't need to do anything.

Then wouldn't it be completely meaningless to hold this meeting? However, the advantage of being a leader is that many times, he doesn't have to explain his ideas to his subordinates.

But since it all started with anxiety, Mu Yi was naturally not satisfied.

"Yuanzhi, how's the development of the small world going?" Mu Yi pondered for a moment and called Xu Shu's name.

"Currently, we have completely controlled eighteen small worlds. Six of them have special development resources, three are finishing up, one is completely uncooperative, and the rest are still in the contact and exploration stage."

"Specially developed resources?" Mu Yi was stunned for a moment and looked at Huang Tianji beside him.

Huang Tianji projected the information in front of everyone at the right time.

"Spiritual flowers for alchemy, cinnabar mines for drawing talismans, spiritual wood for special buildings, spiritual soil rich in a large number of beneficial substances, magical beast crystals containing the essence of heaven and earth, and a large number of special ores in the open air!"

Mu Yi nodded. Good things can be developed in the small world. Although the overall strength level is not strong, each world has some special resources.

Even without special resources, the most basic population resources are excellent.

These small worlds that are completely controlled are almost always harvested in a predatory manner.

In the small world, there are very few people who can reach the level of internal Qi leaving the body or even the level of internal Qi forming Gang. The empire directly absorbed all of these people, giving them a bigger stage while also replenishing the talent pool.

It can be said that the sects and academies in these small worlds have become resource bases for cultivating talents for the Xinghan Empire.

However, faced with the resource allocation towards Xinghan, these sects and academies completely voluntarily turned to Xinghan.

After all, there is a saying that goes, "If you hear the truth in the morning, you can die in the evening."

In addition, the power gap between the two sides was too great, and resistance was impossible. They could only bow their heads and choose to blend in.

"Currently, there is 1 person who has broken through the boundary, 32 people whose internal Qi has left their body, and 1219 people whose internal Qi has formed into a Gang! There are 3240 technical talents!" Huang Tianji reported the relevant data and information to Mu Yi.

Mu Yi nodded. He knew some of this, like the only one who broke through the realm, whom he had met in person.

After all, being able to break through the boundaries in a small world can be said to be a rare genius among millions.

However, Sima Yi was accompanied by Dian Wei at the time. This one-in-a-million genius was indeed very strong, but Dian Wei shattered his pride with just three punches.

This was even because Dian Wei held back. After all, Dian Wei had fought with boundary-breaking generals at least eight hundred times, if not a thousand. And as the only boundary-breaking general in the small world, the opponent was almost able to walk sideways and had no rivals at all.

The difference in their experiences may have resulted in the same talent between them, but a huge gap in their fighting power.

After knowing that Dian Wei was not the most capable general of Xinghan, the boundary-breaker named Yuwen Hu directly chose to take the lead and turn to Xinghan.

Xinghan naturally welcomed this kind of initiative to join Erduo, and even provided certain welfare benefits to the world where Yuwen Hu came from.

For example, operations like three years of tax exemption will end up with everyone being happy.

However, the only problem is that the strong men in these small worlds basically have no ability to lead troops to fight and can only act as thugs. Sima Yi previously organized these people into commandos, like the guardians of Roman cities.

Xu Shu did organize a training session, hoping that these strong men could learn some military knowledge, so that they could at least become centurions or something, and be able to better demonstrate their combat strength in small-scale battles.

Of course, this kind of preferential treatment is only limited to those who have broken through the realm and whose internal energy has left the body. Those who have internal energy in the form of Gang and are willing to join the army will be directly stuffed into the grassroots level of each legion, and some can even be supplemented into the three-talent legion as soldiers.

Xinghan is now wealthy and powerful. His internal energy can leave his body and he can still do quite well. But when his internal energy forms into Gang, he can really do it in large quantities.

Even the soldiers of the top legions are much stronger in combat effectiveness than those in these small worlds.

"Well, we will set up a special resource development department to assist you in resource development. Technical personnel and staff will be drawn from various departments. As for some management positions... they will be selected from officials with a salary of less than 600 koku."

Mu Yi paused for a moment and glanced at the court officials present. Many officials who wanted to get practical work done were eager to try.

"If you take the lead..."

Mu Yi looked at the senior civil officials present, and finally stopped his gaze on Jiang Wan.

"Jiang Wan, you will take the lead and be directly responsible to Huang Tianji. You are allowed to use illusion workers to develop resources and recruit local personnel!"

No one spoke in the audience. This was a personnel appointment, so naturally Mu Yi had the final say. Many people looked at Jiang Wan with envy.

However, no one felt jealous. They all knew that entering the court meeting meant opportunity. Today it was Jiang Wan, and tomorrow it might be their turn.

Because Mu Yi has always been like this, never reluctant to delegate power.

However, most of the officials sitting in the back row still envied Jiang Wan.

After all, any discerning person can see that this is a very important position, and if you work in this position for a few years, as long as nothing goes wrong, you will definitely have hope of being granted a title of nobility.

You know, it is very difficult to be granted the title of marquis in Xinghan. Except for the original shares, other officers and counselors have not accumulated enough merits to exchange for the title.

Xinghan's title is not just a change in status, many things actually require the title.

Just like the strategic resources like ancient divine meat, Lu Bu can directly get a part of it by virtue of his title of Wen Hou. This is just one of the benefits of being a Xinghan noble.

More importantly, Mu Yi promised that only those who were granted titles could obtain the power of the stars, which would not only prolong their lifespan, but would more than double their lifespan of a hundred years. This motivated many high-ranking civil and military officials to work hard.

Haven’t you seen that even a sickly person like Guo Jia has recovered his health due to the nourishment of the power of the stars? Although he can’t do strong manly feats like running a horse with his fists, at least he won’t cough up blood and faint.

This is also the reason why Xinghan militarism is rampant, just like the old Qin people in the past who are happy to hear about war.

After all, war means merit, and merit means longevity and glory.

Originally, the subsequent problems caused by this thing would continue to become more and more complicated, but because of the presence of Huang Tianji, the cold rule enforcer, the subsequent problems are not problems at all.

In the past, the most difficult thing to do was to quantify merits. Now with Huang Tianji, merit quantification has been truly achieved. Although it may not be completely intuitive, at least it can make everyone convinced.

It is really possible to transform from a small soldier to a general in Xinghan.

Just as it was designed back then, as long as the site is large enough, there will be enough space provided for the lower level, and as long as the upward channel is smooth and correct, many problems will not arise.

Development is the best way to cover up problems, and this is true no matter what kind of world we live in.

After all the operations, thanks to Xu Shu, Mu Yi finally thought of what he wanted to do. (End of this chapter)
