Chapter 781: Announce to the World! War Breaks Out!

“Since that’s the case, very well, Langya. Listen carefully—for this mission, you are in charge of leading your Jinyiwei troops to the border to stand by. Once war breaks out, follow General Luo’s orders and make sure to achieve results at the border!”
After giving the order lazily, the Eighth Prince waved his hand impatiently. General Luo, the head of the Jinyiwei, wisely led Langya away…
At this point, Langya was still confused, not having heard clearly what task the Eighth Prince had assigned to him. However, the head of the Jinyiwei and General Luo asked questions back and forth, helping Langya gradually understand everything…
Battle!
Border… Tartars… a massive cavalry army… Bi Xuan… Kublai Khan…
These words, mentioned occasionally, shocked Langya’s heart time and again. Seeing General Luo, clad in armor, marching with a worried expression, Langya finally began to understand. A chill ran through him: “This time, there’s likely to be a major battle!”
Soon, Langya received detailed instructions from the head of the Jinyiwei…
Meanwhile, as Langya received his appointment and mission from the head of the Jinyiwei, several other major factions in the court—Yu Jin, the top eunuch expert of the Eastern Depot; Luo Yan, the top internal security expert of the Western Depot; and Kuangfeng Xueyu, the famous Golden Blade Constable of the Six Gates—were also ordered by their respective leaders to lead their troops to the border checkpoints to join the troops stationed there, preparing for a fierce battle against the increasingly active Mongol army!
Secretly, several groups left the capital…
…
The next day!
The emperor issued a proclamation to the whole country: The Mongol army was gathering at the border, led by Khan Kublai Khan, with a million elite cavalry! The army not only had skilled experts but also included masters like Bi Xuan, absolute powerhouses at the mythic level!
Furthermore, it was said that experts from the demonic sect could also be found among the Mongol army…
When this information was revealed by the system, countless players were stunned and confused for a long time!
The Mongol army was one thing, but having characters from the Tang Dynasty and Kublai Khan as well? The dynasties were getting chaotic!
But what was even more chaotic and thrilling was yet to come. On the Mongol side, there were Bi Xuan and the demonic sect experts, while on the Central Plains side, the army included Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong, the Twin Dragons of Yangzhou, King Li Shimin of Qin, as well as Wang Chongyang, Guo Jing, and Zhang Wuji, who had appeared at the Hero’s Villa…
Countless players were dizzy.
“What the hell is going on?”
“Damn it… People from different dynasties all gathered together—what’s the purpose of this?”

“Stop talking, I need to lie down for a while.”
……
“The Demon Sect, allied with the Mongol army, has invaded the Central Plains! The Emperor is furious!”
“The Emperor has issued an imperial edict from the Forbidden City, announcing to the whole world! He calls on masters from all major martial arts sects to unite in hatred against their common enemy and join forces with the border guards to resist the Mongol army and the sinister ambitions of the Demon Sect!”
The war will last for one month!
“During this time, with the country in crisis, all sect branches and the main headquarters are under system protection!”
“All martial artists may form their own teams to serve the country, go to the grasslands to fight the enemy, or head to the borders to take on missions and earn battlefield merits…”
“For any mission completed, killing an infantryman earns at least 1 point!”
“Killing a scout earns 5 points!”
“Killing a Mongol cavalryman earns 10 points!”
“Killing a Mongol ten-man leader earns 50 points!”
“Killing a centurion earns 200 points!”
“Killing a thousand-man leader earns 500 points!”
“Killing a ten-thousand-man leader earns 1000 points!”
“Killing a high-level master from the Demon Sect at the Wuwei realm earns 500 points!”
“Killing an elder from the Demon Sect at the Wuwei realm earns 1000 points!”
“Killing a renowned master from the Demon Sect earns 2000 points, such as Wanwan, Bian Bufu, Yang Xuyan, Zhao Deyan, Xi Ying, An Long, Pi Chen, You Niaojuan…”
“Killing a general earns 5000 points!”
“Killing a master at the Mythical realm, such as Bi Xuan, Shi Zhixuan, Zhu Yuyan… earns 20000 points!”
“Killing the Great Khan Kublai Khan earns 100000 points!”
“The points earned can be exchanged for battlefield merits, which in turn can be used to obtain silver, ranked weapons, ranked equipment, forging opportunities, medicinal pills, and even military ranks from the imperial court!”
No one would care about exchanging for silver, but the ranked weapons mentioned here excited countless martial artists.
500 points could be used to exchange for a first-class weapon at rank 1, while 1000 points could get a first-class weapon at rank 2;
The forging opportunity meant a 100% success rate.
One forging opportunity cost 10000 points, and no matter what grade of equipment it was, one attempt guaranteed success, regardless of the rank reached (rank 4 could not be forged).

Although everyone initially found it very chaotic and complicated with so many elements combined, they gradually came to accept it after learning that these people were merely mixed in the army, serving as supporting roles and sources for points; when they saw the data slowly being made available to each person through the system… The Central Plains erupted in excitement! The entire world was shaken! Even Happy gave up the idea of enjoying the scenery along the way and seriously delved into the details of this mission! What the players needed to do was simple: head to the border troops’ camp, approach the mission assigners at the army headquarters, and take on various tasks such as hunting, scouting, harassing the enemy, assassinating them, poisoning them, setting traps, or hunting scouts. There were also some more ordinary tasks… transporting supplies, protecting them, safeguarding important generals or key characters, and disrupting the enemy’s assassination plans—because in Mongolia as well, many players would receive missions to infiltrate the Central Plains to carry out tasks. All these tasks had time limits, and the points earned varied! During this period, all the points earned from completing tasks could be accumulated, to be exchanged for various items on the last day… Naturally, Happy wasn’t interested in those early exchange rewards. What piqued his curiosity was the exchange of military ranks. A rank represented the court’s recognition of the players! The more military achievements one accumulated, the faster the promotion! Moreover, if one was promoted in battle, it seemed possible to lead a group of soldiers from the headquarters in a raid—which was truly remarkable. Happy noticed that 200 points could earn one the rank of squad leader, allowing command over five soldiers; 1,000 points granted the rank of platoon leader, commanding 25 soldiers; reaching 10,000 points allowed one to become a company leader, leading 125 soldiers; a battalion leader required 100,000 points; and a regimental commander needed 1 million points. Additionally, one could choose different troop types—infantry, scouts, archers, pike soldiers, cavalry, archers on horseback, or heavy cavalry—and if one had enough points, they could select various troop types for combat. Upon closer inspection, Happy’s blood boiled with excitement…
