Li Shi's words caused an uproar, but in the end, Mu Yi did not directly agree to the alliance, but chose to put it aside for later discussion.

Li Shi was not surprised and did not say much. He followed the waiter out of the court meeting. He would not reveal all the detailed information before forming an alliance.

"What do you think of the information given by the Ming envoy?"

After Li Shi left, Mu Yi looked at the civil and military officials below and asked, those who came to the court meeting this time were all high-ranking officials. Although this information was considered top secret, these people also had the right to know.

"Half true, half false!" Jia Xu stepped forward and said confidently.

"Tell me about it?" Mu Yi was a little surprised. He didn't expect Jia Xu to say that.

"The first half should be false, and the second half should be true!" Jia Xu shook his head.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember the size of the Mongol army when Rome fought against the Mongol Khan?" Jia Xu asked.

Mu Yi nodded. He would certainly not forget this.

"According to the intelligence we have, the sixteen royal courts under the Mongol Empire were basically forces that occupied a world, and the tribal khan was just one of the forces under the royal court."

"The Tal Khan of the Mongol Yuan tribe considers himself the best under the royal court. It can be inferred that the force that occupies a world is basically three to five times that of the Tal tribe."

"Putting aside the issue of the God of War, the Tal tribe alone has twelve fully staffed legions of three talents and military soul level."

“Even though the Qing court has just unified the world and cannot compare to the Mongol court, its high-end combat power is definitely not limited to just 21 fully staffed three-talent and military soul legions!”

Jia Xu told his own inferences, and the civil and military officials who heard it became even more depressed. So this is what the fake news was?

"The population exceeds 700 million and the number of troops exceeds 10 million. This should be consistent with our estimation of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty. I'm afraid there are some discrepancies on the Qing Dynasty side, but the error won't be too big!"

"Based on the current military hierarchy of our empire, with a 10 million double-talented army, the number of guards will probably not be less than one million, and the number of three-talented legions will not be less than 200,000."

"As for the Legion of Miracles, there is no data to infer yet, but it is certain that the other party must have it!"

After Jia Xu finished speaking, he fell silent. Li Shi's half-true and half-false information basically confirmed his estimation of the Qing court's strength.

However, if this inference is true, how exaggerated would the military strength of the Mongols, who had sixteen royal courts, be, and how many exaggerated armies would the Ming Dynasty, which could fight against the Mongols, have?

"I agree with this proposal!" Guo Jia stepped forward and supported Jia Xu's opinion.

The other counselors also expressed their opinions. Jia Xu's reasoning was basically logical and there was basically no problem.

Mu Yi nodded, which was considered as his agreement with Jia Xu's inference.

The Qing court's army of tens of millions was probably not the limit. After all, with a population of 700 million, the support ratio was only 70 to 1, and there was still room for exploitation.

Xinghan itself is the best example. The people under Xinghan rely on various technologies to improve productivity, liberate labor, and provide more production capacity. In some places, even a village of hundreds of people can provide logistics for thousands of soldiers.

Wooden oxen and flowing horses, energy erosion, Shennong's magic, space transportation...a series of things have brought about a leap in the improvement of productivity.

It was precisely this advantage of living a life of direct pursuit of wealth that allowed Xinghan to almost crush the Persian and Kushan people when he annexed them.

After all, people have their own scale to judge whether their life is good or not.

"What do you think about the alliance?"

After Mu Yi pondered for a moment, he asked another question. To be honest, the current conflict between them and Qing Ting was just the most basic friction.

There was originally a possibility of shelving the issue. After all, when two tigers fight, one of them will be injured, and both sides will exercise some restraint.

However, if the Ming Dynasty intervenes now, it may force them to engage in a full-scale war with the Qing Empire, and may even draw the Mongol Empire into the game.

Although the Nine Cauldrons protect the space and neither the Mongols nor the Qing Dynasty can break in, the various open worlds that have been extended out are likely to be lost. At least the world where Cao Cao is currently in will inevitably become a target of attack.

The world opened up by Sun Quan will inevitably become the front line of the war between Xinghan and Qingting.

This strategic passivity makes people feel uncomfortable.

"I think we can form an alliance!" Xu Shu stated his attitude simply and concisely.

"Our army has forged a life-and-death feud with the Mongols, and has stood on the same front with the Ming Dynasty. Now that the Mongols and the Qing court have formed an alliance, we must of course find an ally."

"Although the Ming envoys do not seem to be anxious, it can be seen from their swift and decisive actions that the Ming must be at a disadvantage at the moment, otherwise it would not be so eager to find allies!" Jia Xu also agreed with Xu Shu's opinion.

In fact, this is also the current predicament of the Ming Dynasty.

The Qing court was far inferior to the Ming Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty, but as a force that unified the world, it already had the ability to join the war and influence the war situation.

Although the decisive battle has not yet begun and is still in the stage of exploratory war, if a real war breaks out, the Ming Dynasty will definitely suffer losses.

Therefore, after Ming Dynasty finds Xinghan, it will be very eager to seek an alliance.

Generally speaking, it should be the weaker party that is anxious about seeking an alliance, but now it is the Ming Empire that is anxious.

Mu Yi tapped the chair, pondering the pros and cons of the alliance.

The sharing of resources after the alliance is indeed a good thing for Xinghan today. With Huang Tianji, they can quickly replicate technology, and the Ming Dynasty's technology must be superior to theirs in some areas.

While accompanying the envoys on their inspection tour, Jia Xu captured a large amount of information. This information did not have much meaning, but the intelligence hidden beneath it was very important.

Just like the so-called Mechanical Spider Tower and Mechanical Flying Peng, they seem to be some upgraded versions of the Wooden Ox and Flowing Horse, which may represent technologies such as etching driven by the essence of heaven and earth.

However, the disadvantages are also obvious. After the alliance, they will inevitably be involved in the war. The biggest possibility is that the Mongols and the Ming Dynasty will continue the war, and they will enter into a full-scale war with the Qing court.

However, Mu Yi knows his own business. Compared with Daming, he has an advantage, that is, his ability to ignore the limitations of the space barrier and directly open a door to attack the opponent's hinterland.

This is a killer move and should not be used lightly.

After all, this kind of ability will also arouse the suspicion of the Ming Dynasty.

"Draft a charter for the alliance and discuss the details with the Ming envoy..."

After Mu Yi made the final decision, the alliance between Ming Dynasty and Xinghan became very smooth.

After the two sides formed an alliance, Li Shi frankly revealed all the information about the Qing court.

In fact, Li Shi did not lie before. What he said in the hall was the power controlled by the Ming Dynasty and the power that appeared on the battlefield.

As for the others, they only had some information heard from hearsay. They didn't know much about the Qing court. They only knew that it was the destined enemy of the Ming Empire, just like the Mongols.

However, there is not much information about the Qing court, but there is everything about the Mongols. They had been fighting each other for many years and had a lot of information about each other.

"What a Mongol Empire!"

After reading the detailed information about the Mongol Empire, Mu Yi was overwhelmed.

If there were a lot of casualties and pain in the process of Xinghan and Qingting unifying the world, it would take time to recover.

Then every royal court under the jurisdiction of the Mongols and the Ming Dynasty has basically recovered its vitality and started to explore the unified world of war.

The thirteen states combined together can play to their respective strengths.

For example: northerners fought on horseback, and southerners shot arrows on boats. Only by cooperating with each other could they become a powerful empire.

Then the chemical reaction that can be produced by the cooperation between the sixteen royal courts under the rule of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty will be even greater.

Immediately afterwards, Li Shi began to invite the Xinghan Empire to participate in military operations. The target of the war was the Qing court, and the goal was a small world, a small world that was snatched from the Ming Dynasty while the Ming Dynasty and the Mongols were at war.

It is not a small world like the Netherworld, but more like a resource point in the Heroes of Might and Magic world, which can regularly produce resources such as ores. According to Li Shi, it will also produce some special ores like Netherworld ores.

The price that Ming paid for the invitation to military action was some technologies that Ming delivered to Xinghan, including the so-called Mechanical Spider Tower and Mechanical Flying Peng.

A small world is actually not important to the Ming Dynasty, but this is a pilot project for cooperation between the two sides, so both Xinghan and the Ming Dynasty actually attach great importance to it.

However, this transaction also reminded Jia Xu that they also had a bargaining chip that could be traded.

"Ming envoy, are you interested in the tribal world of the Mongol Empire?"

Jia Xu found Li Shi. After the initial alliance, the envoys had more autonomy. Part of the envoys explored other cities under the escort of the Xinghan Army.

After all, for the Ming Dynasty, only by understanding Xinghan more can it come up with more valuable things, exchange resources with Xinghan, and use these things to drive Xinghan and Qingting to go to war.

However, the envoys are under the strict surveillance of Huang Tianji, and they will not be allowed to access the real core. They will only be shown but not allowed to let Ming Dynasty know the inside of Xinghan.

Both sides are trying hard to measure this balance. After all, it is the honeymoon period since the two sides just formed an alliance, and many things can be negotiated.

For the Ming Dynasty, even if it meant suffering some losses, as long as Xinghan and Qingting could go to war and Xinghan could contain Qingting, then their efforts would be worth it.

As long as they defeat the Mongols, neither Xinghan nor Qingting will be a problem for them.

Hearing Jia Xu's question, Li Shi instantly perked up. For the Ming Dynasty, the only thing they cared about most now was the Mongols, so even the slightest clue about the Mongols would be worth it for them.

"What kind of tribal world?" Li Shi asked with narrowed eyes.

"A world occupied by a Mongol tribe under the Royal Court of Torre." Jia Xu said with a smile. He could tell a lot from Li Shi's reaction.

He also understood in an instant that the Mongols were to the Ming Dynasty what the Huns were to the Han Dynasty. They were enemies that had to be killed at all costs.

Li Shi took a deep breath, knowing that this should be a logistical world opened up by the Mongols.

For the Ming Dynasty, this kind of world is extremely worth going to war for.

After all, when the Ming Dynasty and the Mongols entered a stalemate, what they were actually fighting for was national strength and resources.

Compared with the Ming Dynasty, which started out as an agricultural civilization, it was accustomed to engaging in construction and pursuing long-term development.

The Mongols, who originated from a nomadic civilization, were accustomed to plundering and doing one-time business.

But this does not mean that the Mongols will not engage in construction. In fact, they have already developed to this point. Both the Ming Dynasty and the Mongols are the epitome of farming and nomadism.

So after learning that this was a logistics world being built by the Mongols, Li Shi's first reaction was to mobilize his troops to carry out a looting operation to inflict some pain on the Mongols.

This level of loss would certainly not cause any serious damage to the Mongols, but for the Ming Dynasty, as long as the Mongols could be dealt a heavy blow, it would be meaningful.

To stop the Mongols from doing anything they want to do is the current national policy of the Ming Dynasty and also the greatest political correctness of the Ming Dynasty.

Although this article is also very applicable to the Qing court, the Qing court is still too weak compared to the Ming Dynasty, so there is no need to deliberately target it for the time being.

Without any hesitation, Li Shi took out a list and handed it to Jia Xu.

This is a list compiled based on what their envoy group observed, which includes secret techniques, technologies, and some resources that Xinghan does not have or lacks.

It is also the bargaining chip for their current transaction.

"Give me the world coordinates you mentioned, and you can choose three from them!" Li Shi looked at Jia Xu seriously.

Jia Xu looked at Li Shi's expression and had no intention of bargaining. After glancing at the list, he seemed to randomly choose the three items above.

Li Shi took a look at what Jia Xu had selected, narrowed his eyes, and said nothing more. Instead, he immediately ordered people to go back along Cao Cao's line to get these things.

After getting the things, Jia Xu immediately gave the spatial coordinates to Li Shi.

For them, seeing the fierce battle between the Mongols and the Ming Dynasty was a good thing.

The war broke out faster than Mu Yi and his companions had expected. The spies they left in the magical world reported the war situation only three days later.

In the deliberate and unintentional attack, the Ming Dynasty dealt a heavy blow to the Mongols, looted a large amount of supplies, and destroyed many things built by the Mongols.

It is so heartbreaking that it makes people cry. Judging from the extent of the damage caused by the Ming army, the Mongols must have wasted at least three years.

Even this sudden attack by the Ming Dynasty gave the Magic World, which had already been beaten to a pulp, an opportunity to launch a counterattack, making the situation even worse for the Mongols.

They had never anticipated this situation. The reason they chose this world as their logistics world was because it was safe. However, they did not expect that they would be raided by the Ming Dynasty. It was completely unexpected.
