Even if we join forces with many major powers, we cannot change this outcome.
Perhaps I should really learn more about Lin Zhiguo's teaching materials?
"Go back and persuade your father to reconsider carefully. Your time is running out." Yalin looked at Yamanaka Satoshi, a hint of appreciation appearing in his eyes, and offered some advice.
“Yes!” Yamanaka Satoshi’s eyes widened, understanding the meaning of those words.
This daimyo is no longer willing to tolerate this and will soon send troops to conquer the world and accomplish this great feat.
Although he had expected it, the speed of the response still exceeded his expectations.
They must return to their father as soon as possible to discuss the matter. If they make the wrong choice, their family may be completely wiped out of history.
.......
After Yamanaka Tomo left, Aino poured a cup of hot tea for Ayrin. "You seem to have a good impression of this messenger?"
"After all, he's quite quick-witted and can be considered a semi-talented person." Yalin smiled; he was always tolerant of talented people.
In any case, all the officials in the Lin Kingdom who reached a certain level had signed contracts with him.
If the other party were incorporated into the Forest Kingdom's system, it would be difficult for them to abuse their power for personal gain.
In addition, Yalin's expression shifted as he thought of something: Yamanaka Satoshi's surname and the other party's perception that seemed to be beyond that of ordinary people.
It seems that apart from the Senju, Uchiha, and Hyuga clans, which are closely related to the Sage of Six Paths and his brothers, which have not yet emerged, some of the clans in later generations probably do have a long and distinguished history.
Regardless of small countries that could be destroyed at any time, the families in those top powers, as long as they worship gods, can generally last for a considerable period of time.
In the original storyline, once Kaguya Otsutsuki began preparing for war, she would turn humans into White Zetsu.
She'll probably take care of those deities who are being worshipped.
Without their trump card, even if they are fortunate enough to receive instruction from the Sage of Six Paths and learn how to use chakra, the turmoil of the next thousand years will lead to the annihilation of most clans, with new clans constantly emerging, ultimately forming the situation of the Five Great Nations and the Five Great Villages.
Very few families can continue to exist indefinitely.
The fact that the Grim Reaper was able to live to the next generation and be obtained and worshipped by the Uzumaki clan is probably due to a combination of good fortune and considerable personal strength.
“Since these major powers have chosen to test us, then we should respond to them with action.” Yalin looked at the world map and revealed a sharp smile towards the landmass beyond the Forest Kingdom.
“I haven’t settled the accounts with them yet. Now it’s a good time to settle them all at once.”
Over the years, the Lin Kingdom has appeared peaceful on the surface, but underneath it has been incredibly turbulent.
The names of the spies planted in Xiangzu's capital cannot be filled into a single notebook.
Yalin is not one to be magnanimous and let things go; he is no saint.
"Next, inform Long to have the First Legion prepare for war with the Sixth Legion."
This time, the Forest Kingdom's goal is the entire world.
Volume 1: Chapter 75: Devastating Victory (4k)
Five years is not a long time, but it has further widened the gap between the Kingdom of Lin and the rest of the countries in this era.
Even if some far-sighted daimyo in other countries try to learn a little bit from it in an attempt to make up for the gap, it won't be a big deal.
The knowledge and systems of industrialization are not so easy to learn.
Even with the support of other worlds and Kaguya's help, Yalin has only developed to its current state.
If things proceed step by step without external factors, even with a complete knowledge system and no theoretical bottlenecks, it would take Lin Zhiguo at least twenty years to reach his current level, and that's under ideal conditions.
Those famous figures probably haven't even fully grasped the contents of the various basic knowledge manuals that have been circulating in the past few years.
Those manuals may seem basic, but they are actually a crystallization of modern society, containing knowledge that transcends this era by thousands of years.
For the states during the Warring States period, if a powerful daimyo could thoroughly master it and use its contents to enhance national strength, developing it for decades or even centuries, it might very well be able to unify the world.
It could even propel this era forward a few steps.
Of course, with the Forest Country around, even if a far-sighted daimyo recognized the significance of these manuals, it would be too late.
In this era, there can only be one voice.
Upon hearing this, Aino stepped back, a look of anticipation also appearing on her face.
Not only her, but the entire Kingdom of Lin had been waiting for this day for a long time. Some people even secretly started betting on it, speculating on when Lord Yalin would send troops to conquer the world.
No one believed that Lord Yalin would stop there; the current calm was merely a prelude to a hidden dragon lurking in the abyss.
It is precisely this self-evident perception that makes neighboring countries tremble with fear and desperately seek a way out.
Unfortunately, the right to choose is not in their hands.
......
When only Yalin remained in the hall, he gently tapped the bench.
Five years ago, the Kingdom of Lin had the strength to sweep across the entire world, but it stopped because of insufficient resources.
This gives those countries a chance to catch their breath.
As for now, basic education has become widespread in the Forest Kingdom.
Leaving aside adults whose thinking is already fixed, the teenage years are the best time to learn and absorb knowledge. When their thinking is not rigid and they know how to be flexible, their learning efficiency is extremely high.
Five years is enough time for the original generation of teenagers to grow up.
This provided Yalin with a sufficient talent pool; the selected personnel only needed a period of training to become qualified officials.
The management system has been further improved, and the timing is ripe in all aspects.
It's time for this world to usher in a new era.
"While sheer strength can be overwhelming, we still need to be wary of those gods, onmyoji, and shrine maidens."
Yalin doesn't need to get involved in battles fought by normal people. The army of the Forest Kingdom will offer him the most brilliant victory.
As for the extraordinary aspects, that's for him to handle.
Whether human, god, or monster, they all have only one choice: to submit to him.
......
The capital of the ancestral home, the military camp.
Upon receiving the order from the Daimyo's residence, Murakami Takashi was initially taken aback, but then a look of wild joy appeared in his eyes.
"Is it finally about to begin? We will surely conquer the entire world for Lord Yalin. Even the other side of the sea will become part of the Kingdom of Yalin."
He assured his arriving guards that he had no doubt about it.
Of the seven legions of the Forest Kingdom, the Sixth Legion is the Navy, which was established specifically to conquer islands located outside the mainland.
The Kingdom of Forest has two large cities besides the capital of the ancestors. One of them is located on the coast and has the world's largest port, where the shipyard is located.
Compared to the small wooden boats used for fishing at sea in this era, the steam warships of the Forest Kingdom, equipped with new cannons, are more than capable of crushing any enemy in any sea area.
Even if the enemy manages to board the ship and engage in close combat, the various firearms developed over the years will still give those old-time pirates a pleasant surprise.
Takashi Murakami really enjoys the feeling of being mowed down by a heavy machine gun; it's much more satisfying than slashing with a sword, and it has a kind of violent beauty.
Looking at the soldiers still conducting military training in the barracks.
He instructed his subordinates to gather the middle and upper-ranking officers and prepare for the war film.
.....
"Is this Lord Yalin's order? Is it finally about to begin?" In the government office of the capital city, Minister Kuroda of the Azure Dragon also received the order, and his tone was full of emotion.
Back in that country, he probably never dreamed that he would live to see this day come.
Ending the Warring States period? That sounds like a fantasy.
As a minister who had led his country to ruin, Kuroda Jo had been living in constant fear and trembling, working tirelessly day and night, never daring to be negligent in the slightest.
They even proactively signed contracts to demonstrate their loyalty, which is how they got to where they are today.
And this is worthwhile, because when future history books mention the Kingdom of Lin and Lord Yalin, they will surely record his name.
This kind of glory is something countless people yearn for but cannot attain.
"Next, we absolutely cannot afford to neglect logistics." Kuroda said seriously, calling a meeting with the officials.
Over the years, the Kingdom of Lin has been preparing to conquer the world.
This battle is also about his reputation before and after his death, so he must win it beautifully.
.......
When Yalin makes his decision, the entire Forest Kingdom will be like a high-speed machine, revealing its hidden brilliance to the whole world.
The First to Fourth Legions, led by their respective generals, set off in an orderly fashion from the border of the Forest Kingdom.
Prepare to wage war against four countries simultaneously to increase the efficiency of conquest.
Takashi Murakami's First Legion first selected a country with a population of 100,000 and hundreds of samurai, named Rin no Kuni.
There was no concealment whatsoever during this process, allowing spies from various countries to transmit intelligence back to them.
When the daimyo of the neighboring country learned of this, his face turned deathly pale, and he didn't know what to do.
As a country bordering the Kingdom of Forest, he was acutely aware of the name of that great man, Yalin, and the terror of his army.
Although the Kingdom of Lin did not participate in the 10,000-strong allied army of the Kingdom of Gui, it still sent people to watch the battle.
I thought it would be a closely fought battle, to witness the fighting power of that incarnation of a god.
Unexpectedly, the enemy did not appear at all; there were only less than a thousand soldiers from the Kingdom of Lin on the battlefield.
At the time, the coalition forces all thought they had it in the bag; they had a ten-against-one advantage.
Then... they were routed by the artillery brought by the Lin Kingdom's army.
The First World War established the reputation of the Forest Kingdom.
Is the same thing about to happen in Guizhiguo now?
The more he thought about it, the more panicked he became, and the daimyo of the neighboring country felt an urge to surrender immediately.
However, no matter what, they couldn't make up their minds and were unwilling to give up this right and end up being at the mercy of others.
After a moment, he calmed himself down and instructed his confidants: "Quickly inform the warriors to lead the troops to resist the invasion of the Forest Kingdom."
