Chapter 32 A desperate army will surely win.
In the Twisted Three Kingdoms, there is an ancient and wondrous formation called the Six Harmonies Formation.
But it's not actually a formation; rather, it describes an ability to control the actions of a large army through mind manipulation.
After all, the opening line states that formations originate from mental techniques, and that mental techniques are used to control formations.
Unfortunately, very few people could understand this Six Harmonies Formation, so Liu Qi simply used it to lure Zhuge Liang into completing his plan of removing the ladder after he had climbed onto the roof.
What's amazing is that Lu Mingfei is one of the few people in the world who can understand the Six Harmonies Formation.
Lu Mingfei's request was relayed to the principal, who simply smiled and granted it.
Thus, there was this incredibly resourceful student who was able to make a phone call from thousands of miles away into Ye Sheng and Jiu Deyaji's command center.
However, Ye Sheng and Jiu Deyaji's communicator had long been disconnected, and now they could only rely on Ye Sheng's Word of Power: Serpent to transmit messages in the form of an informational 'serpent'. They were carrying a huge bronze jar and did not know how they could escape from here.
Good news: the information delay is very low. Bad news: Ye Sheng heard someone speaking in his head. He inexplicably felt as if someone was manipulating his body, and white mist, invisible to anyone, swirled around his ears.
They were currently underwater in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, very close to the location of the Kuimen city in Lu Mingfei's memory.
But at this moment, it wasn't just Ye Sheng who felt manipulated. On the river, on the massive warship Moniach, battered by the storm, the ship's broadcast echoed Lu Mingfei's words to everyone.
The leader and captain of this mission, and also Lu Mingfei's teacher for tomorrow's 8 a.m. class, Professor Mans Rundstedt, couldn't even muster the thought of questioning at this moment, and completely carried out secondary command according to Lu Mingfei's words.
A huge 3D map of the event, marked with Lu Mingfei's annotations, appeared in the ship's command center, where Lu Mingfei calmly issued commands.
"Three torpedoes were launched in succession at the marked location five minutes later."
However, in Ye Sheng's mind, a different command method was being transmitted.
Lu Mingfei's words echoed in his mind. He moved mechanically up, down, left, and right, his movements precise to the decimeter. The sound appeared and his actions were even without delay, making him feel like a puppet on a string.
He skillfully maneuvered with the help of the shoji, navigating the Bronze City diagonally upwards through a series of narrow intersections.
On several occasions, just as they were about to be crushed by the moving mechanism, the bronze jar jammed, and the mechanism created a larger gap for the two of them to pass through.
They finally arrived at the end of the mission, but all they saw was an endless bronze wall. Before despair could even arise, a sound like a thunderclap rang out.
"boom!!!"
Then came another one, this time even closer than the last, and then a third one!
"boom!!!!"
The bronze wall in front of me transformed from cracks to fragments to holes in a very short time.
Even the most idiot would know what to do at this point, and Ye Sheng and Jiu Deyaji crawled out of the hole without hesitation.
Before them lay a massive fissure in the underwater rock and a passageway blasted open, with even the faint outline of a warship's hull visible.
The vibrations generated by the Bronze City activity created fissures in the underwater rocks. Lu Mingfei planned this road, using cutting-edge technology to design the shortest path.
Just as he had used the Yitian and Qinggang swords to break through the weak point of the bronze wall of the active city and lead his soldiers out of the Kuimen City, this time, he saved everyone's lives.
The gold in Lu Mingfei's eyes gradually dimmed. Liu Bei's most impressive feat was using the Imperial Seal and divine will to forcibly control Cao Cao's 50,000-strong army without any military power. He didn't have that talent or skill.
Not to mention controlling so many people's actions with his voice, he actually borrowed a secret technique used by Cao Cao during the Guandu period, which involved consuming a large amount of food to make people burst out with the ability to fight ten people at once.
To be honest, he only learned about this trick after joining Boss Cao's camp.
Cao Cao used this tactic in the first battle of Guandu, consuming almost all of Yuan Shu's grain, including the grain captured from Yuan Shao, before finally defeating Yuan Shu's 700,000-strong army. Even so, only Lu Mingfei's troops were able to defeat them by force.
"Mingfei, you scared me so much during the Battle of Guandu that I almost peed my pants, hehehe."
That's what Boss Cao said to him later, it's fucking abstract.
Feeling his stomach empty, Lu Mingfei thought to himself, "This should be about right. I need to celebrate with a big drink!"
Suddenly! A sense of danger came from Ye Sheng, who was still in contact with him.
"Now! Take off your diving gear! Swim to the top at all costs!"
A roar entered Ye Sheng's head, and an invisible white mist extended to his hands. Without hesitation, Ye Sheng led Jiu Deya Ji in a rout, leaving them with just enough breath to float to the surface of the river.
They threw off their diving suits and swam upwards with all their might, surrounded by a large amount of bubbles and a force pushing them forward.
The oxygen cylinder was punctured? How is that possible?
A loud, energetic shout came from the loudspeaker above the river.
"Launch torpedoes!!!"
"But--"
"emission!!!"
Lu Mingfei ignored the rebuttal and continued to shout that the defeat had already triggered the inevitable tragedy of a defeated army. He said that launching torpedoes now would still save the lives of the two people still underwater.
So, despite some hesitation, the only thing the executive officer had to do was carry out the order, and the personnel responsible for launching the torpedoes did so without hesitation.
After he pressed the launch button, the sonar personnel began shouting.
"There's a creature moving this way underwater! It's fifteen meters long! It looks like a fish! It's moving incredibly fast, at fifty knots!"
"boom!!"
The huge explosion sounded like muffled thunder underwater.
Immediately following was a white, towering wave, in which three human-shaped objects were thrown high into the air.
In the midst of the storm, a gust of wind blew by, and the three objects landed precisely on the lifeboat that had been prepared in advance. The scantily clad men and women on the boat coughed up blood and revealed a look of 'This works too, damn it'.
"The person has been rescued! Full speed ahead!"
Meanwhile, on Lu Mingfei's side, everyone watched nervously as multiple small screens simultaneously displayed the rapidly moving objects from various surveillance cameras and sonar maps on the ship.
Upon seeing the two people successfully rescued, everyone couldn't help but show expressions of relief, but Lu Mingfei's expression remained as solemn as before.
The battle situation changed too quickly. The "defeated soldiers' lament" strategy, which allowed them to survive the torpedo explosion, was now gone.
We can't let these people die again and trigger a new "defeat is inevitable" scenario, forcing them to defeat that thing that looks like a dragon.
Lu Mingfei immediately responded.
"What are you waiting for! Launch as many torpedoes as you can!"
"there is none left!!!"
The shout from the other end of the phone startled Lu Mingfei, who then flew into a rage.
"What's going on with you guys?! Such a big warship doesn't have torpedoes!"
"The censorship is too strict! This was smuggled in secretly!"
"What are you waiting for! Launch everything you can! Everyone to the bow! Detonate the engine room if necessary! Escape at all costs!"
