124: Chapter 124 Should we wait a bit?

Chen Aoyun, who was placing pieces on the board, had a very ugly expression on his face.

"Drive the Tiger to Devour the Wolf" was the most fitting skill Chen Aoyun could think of for the current situation.

However, the effect caused by the skill only reduced the million-strong enemy army by 20,000.

It was merely a drop in the bucket!

What should he do next?

Chen Aoyun looked somewhat flustered and at a loss.

Biting the bullet, he placed another piece.

Guo Jing's "Scatter Beans to Become Soldiers"!

Large swathes of soybeans fell like raindrops, and the leaping soybeans transformed into human shapes in the blink of an eye, turning into incredibly mighty warriors guarding the perimeter of the Dragon Country legion.

Another magical skill!

It left the audience watching the screen feeling amazed.

Amazing as it was, it was a pity that the might was only an appearance; the seemingly tall and mighty 'Soybean Warriors' had actual combat power that was like paper, crumbling at the slightest touch from the enemy army!

"So that's how it is...

In this Game of National Destiny, 'soldiers have the highest weight,' but only soldiers obtained through governing chess tiles are genuine soldiers, and only genuine soldiers enjoy the 'highest weight.'

The warriors from 'Scatter Beans to Become Soldiers' can at best be considered summoned objects; their combat power is worlds apart from real soldiers!"

Chen Aoyun's brows were knitted into a knot.

The young commentator Heller mocked him mercilessly,

"After using so many exclusive skills with General Han Xin before, has this Chen Aoyun still not figured it out?

In this Game of National Destiny, the exclusive skills of Heroic Spirits can only play an auxiliary role.

When military strength is similar, Heroic Spirits can be seen as the deciding factor, but when the gap in military strength is pulled to over a hundred thousand, or even several hundred thousand, the effect that Heroic Spirits' skills can have is extremely limited!"

Chen Aoyun also understood this principle; the huge difference in military strength could not be smoothed over by one or two exclusive skills, unless he released 40 exclusive skills in one breath, using the quantitative change of skills to cause a qualitative change.

But the problem was, with 40 exclusive skills, it was very difficult for General Han Xin, the only Heroic Spirit whose sharing effect was eliminated by a golden item, to construct so many again!

Moreover, the remaining Construction Power in his hands did not support it.

The Construction Power in Chen Aoyun's hands was enough for him to construct at most three more exclusive skills!

A sense of despair began to permeate Chen Aoyun's heart.

Facing the million-strong army charging over, Chen Aoyun, who dared not command the Dragon Country army to face the enemy head-on, had to place another piece in his panic.

Zhuge Kongming's "Eight Trigrams Formation"!

Heaven and Earth were inverted, and fog permeated the air.

A maze-like fog-locked formation covered the Dragon Country army, with the Eight Trigrams corresponding to eight types of natural forces:

Qian and Kun trigrams: inducing spatial disorder and subversion;

Xun and Zhen trigrams: summoning wind and thunder to rage;

Kan and Li trigrams: raining down torrents and raging fires;

Gen and Dui trigrams: condensing mountain phantoms and gale-force mist;

Seeing this, Heller's sneer spread across the world through the live broadcast,

"Have the Dragon Country people still not figured out the situation?

Using these little tricks of Heroic Spirits to deal with a million-strong army is simply a mantis trying to stop a chariot!"

Commentator Heller's words were not wrong at all.

The million-strong army simply flattened the wind and thunder raging in the "Eight Trigrams Formation," and the intertwined water and fire.

Although soldiers fell in the process, as for reversing the disadvantage in military strength, it would be no exaggeration to say they were a hundred thousand miles away!

On the contrary, the disordered terrain and the suddenly permeating mist had some effect, causing the enemy army to lose track of the Dragon Country legion for a moment.

"Evasion cannot solve any problems!

How long can this ridiculous mist last?

Perhaps there is no need for the mist to dissipate; the soldiers blessed with weight can automatically 'grow' a pair of eyes that see through the fog!

Is Chen Aoyun refusing to pick a side because he is still hiding these means?

Heh, then I can only say he is truly courting death!"

The hide-and-seek battle had absolutely no watchability, and more people turned their eyes to the duel between the Ottoman and France.

The Ottoman and France were the battles that decided the ranking of this Game of National Destiny!

It would not only decide the victory or defeat between the Ottoman and France, but would even determine the ranking of those countries that picked a side!

The battle here was much more direct.

1.05 million for the Ottoman vs. 900,000 for France; after both Strategists placed some Heroic Spirit skills, the battlefield entered meat-grinder mode!

Weapons clashed, flesh and blood flew, and the number of casualties broke through one million in the blink of an eye!

At this very moment, Rule A—Heroic Spirit Command Mode, was triggered!

"Rule A: When the total number of casualties in a battle exceeds one million, this battle enters Heroic Spirit Command Mode.

Heroic Spirit Command Mode: The dominance of the battle will not be in the hands of the Strategist and the Roleplayer, but will be commanded by a single Heroic Spirit who has been placed.

The attributes of the Heroic Spirit cannot be overwritten, skills cannot be used, and the battle situation is purely dominated by the command ability of this Heroic Spirit!"

This was a hidden rule!

The French Strategist had long since perceived it, and this was also the French Strategist's confidence in daring to use 900,000 to fight against the Ottoman's 1.05 million!

"You have the blessing of Heroic Spirit skills, and so do I; the strength of individual soldiers is equal, and it has been a battle of one-for-one between soldiers.

The meat-grinder style of battle with absolutely no sense of battlefield art should end!

Next, it is time to let Heroic Spirits command the battle!

The command of Heroic Spirits will make the battle more interesting.

Then I will place my piece first!"

Whether it was the Strategist or the Roleplayer, commanding hundreds of thousands or millions of troops was crude.

Their own cultivation was one aspect, and the rules did not grant them the ability for 'micro-management.'

After opening Heroic Spirit command, all of this would change!

The French Strategist raised his arm; he was going to place a Heroic Spirit with unparalleled command ability!

One who had once trampled the entire European continent underfoot, whose army was forged into an unbreakable sharp blade in his hands, and who wrote a series of immortal military myths with command power that transcended the era!

This was the Heroic Spirit placed by the French Strategist—The Emperor, Napoleon Bonaparte!

Napoleon stepped across the long river of history.

Not in the form of a Dharma image, but appearing in the form of a Heroic Spirit, the moment Napoleon Bonaparte appeared, the formation of the remaining 400,000 French army changed suddenly, as if using his own arm to point a finger, and an iron-blooded, murderous aura soared into the sky!

Seeing the earth-shaking changes in the French army, Adar was not flustered at all.

Lifting his arm slowly as well, he said,

"It is not just your France that has a god-like commander; I, the Ottoman, also have one!

Cooldown period?

Indeed, my Ottoman Suleiman the Magnificent is in a cooldown period, but do not forget that I, the Ottoman, am not a weak country in the Game of National Destiny.

I, the Ottoman, can still take out an item to end the cooldown period early!"

Also a figure like a god of war, the Heroic Spirit Adar placed was none other than Suleiman the Magnificent, who was hailed in the Old Era as the 'strongest Sultan of the Ottoman Golden Age'!

In the shining light, Suleiman the Magnificent, with a majestic figure wearing an imperial golden crown, also stepped across the long river of history.

Suleiman the Magnificent was also a genius commander, just right for the requirements of the hidden Rule A.

His appearance made the French Strategist's heart tighten slightly,

"This Game of National Destiny can only use heritage items before the start; how did he use an item to end the cooldown of 'Suleiman' in advance?

Was it planned long ago?

Also, the Ottoman is not a weak country; if I, France, can use heritage items to peek at some content before the Game of National Destiny starts, so can the Ottoman!

This Game of National Destiny has special resource points that are somewhat different, and it is reasonable for the Ottoman to choose to use precious items to peek in advance like I, France, did..."

The appearance of Suleiman the Magnificent indeed exceeded the French Strategist's expectations, making him frown slightly.

However, this worry did not last long.

The French Strategist had absolute confidence in 'The Emperor.'

In the Old Era, Napoleon Bonaparte, whom the entire European continent could not defeat when united, and who only lost to the winter in the end, would definitely be able to defeat any enemy with his god-like command power!

The French Strategist had confidence in Napoleon Bonaparte.

Likewise, Adar also had confidence in Suleiman the Magnificent!

The Emperor vs. The Magnificent!

A great battle based on the 'command power' duel of Heroic Spirits was about to explode!

Just as the war where command was handed over to Heroic Spirits was about to begin, Adar glanced at the Dragon Country battlefield on a whim.

Perhaps this was what is called 'reputation.'

Perhaps the constantly appearing Chinese Heroic Spirits had already deeply convinced this Ottoman Strategist.

After Adar glanced at Chen Aoyun and found that Chen Aoyun had still not been eliminated, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart.

It was unclear what he muttered.

One only heard this guy suddenly open his mouth very seriously and suggest to the French Strategist,

"Wait... why don't we wait until things end on the Dragon Country side before we fight to the death?

There is no possibility of a comeback for the Dragon Country; you think so, I think so, and I even estimate that everyone in the world thinks so.

But as long as the Dragon Country is not officially eliminated for a moment, I always feel uneasy in my heart.

That Chen Aoyun is not stupid, and he also has a clone who became a Roleplayer.

I don't think he would so easily put himself in a position of eternal damnation..."

The French Strategist was stunned, then looked at the Dragon Country's battle.

He indeed discovered that things on the Dragon Country side were strange.

He and Adar had collectively exhausted a million-strong army, yet there was still no movement on the Dragon Country side!

Although the mist of the Eight Trigrams Formation was about to dissipate, and the soldiers surrounding the Dragon Country legion were also about to 'grow' a pair of eyes that could pierce through the mist,

it was an indisputable fact that the Dragon Country legion had not suffered any major damage.

After a slight pause, the French Strategist nodded and said,

"Then let's wait?"

"Mm, wait!" Adar nodded his head like a rattle-drum.
