It seems to be completely consistent with Fang Hu's intelligence investigation before Jing Yuan's warning.

This star region looks like a desolate dead land, without any danger that could pose a threat...

However, these reconnaissance data conflicted with Jing Yuan's warning.

After several days of fruitless investigation, different opinions gradually emerged from the top brass of Fanghu Xianzhou...

Although they did not question the information calculated by [Ten Directions Light Reflecting the Dharma Realm], they proposed a new plan for Fang Hu Xianzhou's next move.

Some senior officials believe that the Fanghu Immortal Boat is huge in size and, considering the inertia factor, it is currently unable to avoid the Istria star region.

Since they can no longer bypass it, they might as well go full throttle and cross the Istria star region at full speed!

This proposal quickly gained the support of most of Fanghu’s senior management.

They believe that under the current circumstances, a quick passage is clearly the least costly and most feasible hedge option...

Otherwise, if we continue with the previous approach and drag on, then when will the investigation end? ...

Moreover, even if Fang Hu's scouts really detected the Fengrao people's fleet as Jing Yuan said.

So what should they do next?

Do we really have to fight a protracted war with them in this ambush circle set up by the Fengzao people?

This is obviously very irrational behavior...

Instead of doing this, it would be better to give full play to the maneuverability of the Xianzhou ship!

Increase your speed and break through in one fell swoop, leaving the enemy no chance to catch up...

Just as the top management of Fanghu was having intense discussions on this plan, Fanghu Taibu Si was also ordered to conduct an expected divination on this plan.

The results show that quickly crossing the Istria star region is indeed the best risk avoidance plan for Fanghu Xianzhou at present.

It has the least casualties and the highest chance of success...

With the endorsement of the Taibu Si's divination, the top management of Fanghu Xianzhou quickly reached a consensus on the decision of rapid crossing.

Although some people, led by General Fu Bo Xuan Quan, still had reservations about this.

But as voices from higher-ups gradually leaned towards accelerating progress, this proposal ultimately took the lead...

If it were wartime now, General Fu Bo could naturally use his military command authority to veto this quickly passed proposal.

But now, with so many scouts sent out, they can't even find the shadow of a beast ship. The top leaders of Fanghu don't think that Fanghu can be called a wartime state at this time...

Therefore, the two sides were at a stalemate, and in the end, they could only come up with a compromise solution...

113

Chapter 113: Two-pronged approach.

This solution can actually be simply summarized as a two-pronged approach.

On the one hand, General Fu Bo Xuan Quan will continue to carry out necessary war preparations inside the Fanghu Immortal Boat.

Whether it was mobilizing troops, stockpiling supplies, establishing defense lines, or constructing firepower points, the Fanghu Immortal Boat would follow the emergency plan and proceed step by step...

On the other hand, all the fighting ship scouts that were sent out earlier have now been called back by the top leaders of Fanghu.

While concentrating his power, he also began to warm up the engine, preparing to propel the immortal ship to accelerate through the Istria star region in the shortest possible time, so as to escape the so-called crisis promoted by Jing Yuan as quickly as possible...

Fang Hu Xianzhou's plan was quickly sent back to Luofu Xianzhou through the Huangzhong system.

Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan, who had been stationed at the Shen Ce Mansion for the past few days, also learned the news immediately...

However, after learning the news, both Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan seemed to disagree with it.

Deep down, both of them felt that this plan seemed a bit tricky...

But even so, the two men had to admit that this was the least costly escape plan Fang Hu could currently implement.

Especially Fu Xuan.

She learned that Fanghu Taibu Si had already conducted a divination on this plan and had proven that it was the method with the highest success rate.

Even though she was still a little uneasy, out of respect for her fellow fortune tellers, she did not immediately express any negative comments about the decision.

She knew very well that as an outsider, she did not fully understand the internal situation of Fang Hu Xian Zhou, and of course she could not make a comprehensive judgment of the situation based solely on external information...

However, Fu Xuan thought about it again and again, and finally made a safe suggestion to Jing Yuan:

"General, to be more cautious..."

"Can we slightly adjust the route of the Luofu Immortal Boat?"

"At least before the Fanghu Immortal Boat leaves the Istria Sector, we can keep the two immortal boats at a closer relative distance..."

"This way, if anything unexpected happens to the Fanghu Immortal Boat, the Luofu Immortal Boat can provide immediate support..."

After hearing this, Jing Yuan immediately nodded in agreement:

"Well, I actually had this idea a long time ago..."

"But at that time, we didn't know that the Fanghu Immortal Boat was traveling too fast and could no longer bypass the Istria star region."

"Otherwise, we would have been on the route close to Fang Hu..."

Afterwards, Jing Yuan immediately signaled Qing Cu and passed the order through her to change the route and approach Fang Hu.

Seeing that Jing Yuan agreed to his proposal, Fu Xuan felt a little relieved.

Although just doing this was far from enough to dispel her inner anxiety, at least she had made the best possible preparations for any unexpected situations...

And next, she should also pass this news to her subordinate who was as worried as she was, as she had promised before...

Fu Xuan then looked at Jing Yuan and said to him with a hint of apology:

"Sorry, General, I have to leave for a while..."

Jing Yuan nodded slightly to show his agreement. Fu Xuan nodded slightly at him, then turned and left the decision-making room.

After closing the door of the decision-making room, Fu Xuan immediately took out the jade omen and dialed Qingque's number.

These days, Fu Xuan was summoned by Jing Yuan to the Shen Ce Mansion to consult on all matters related to the Fang Hu Xian Zhou.

And within the Taibu Division, the daily affairs that originally belonged to Fu Xuan naturally fell to Qingque...

However, because of the instructions given over the past six months, Qingque seemed to be able to handle the affairs of the Taibu Division in an orderly manner even when Fu Xuan was not present.

Although Fu Xuan was worried, he was also very pleased to see Qingque's obvious growth...

After the call was connected, Qingque's voice came immediately, with an indelible concern in his tone:

"Master Fu Xuan? Is there any progress with Fang Hu?"

"Well, their final hedging plan has been sent to us via the Huangzhong system..."

Fu Xuan responded concisely, and then told Qingque in detail about Fang Hu Xianzhou's escape plan.

However, after hearing the news, Qingque did not remain calm like Fu Xuan had just done in the decision-making room.

She seemed very excited, and her next words were almost complaints:

"Why are the people in Fanghu still thinking about avoiding this war?..."

"Didn't they see the results of the divination of [Ten Directions Light Reflecting the Dharma Realm]? When has it never come true?..."

Hearing this, Fu Xuan's heart trembled slightly.

Obviously, what Qingque was complaining about at this moment was also what she had been thinking in her heart when she was in the decision-making room before...

Then the voice of Qingque continued:

"The most important thing for the people of Fang Hu Xian Zhou to do right now is not to hide, but to fully prepare for war!"

"They should do everything possible to delay entering the Bu Liren ambush circle!"

"Why did you choose to speed up and face the trap in the end?..."

"Isn't this just walking into a trap?..."

Hearing this, Fu Xuan took a deep breath and tried his best to comfort Qingque softly:

"I understand your concerns..."

"However, Fang Hu Xian Zhou's decision may not be perfect, but as the divination results of Fang Hu Taibu Si show, it is already the most reasonable choice at the moment..."

"As allies, we cannot criticize them for the decisions they make based on the current situation..."

"And, no matter what, the final decision is still in their hands..."

After hearing Fu Xuan's advice, Qingque fell into silence.

Indeed, now that Fang Hu's scouts have failed to find any trace of the Fengzao people, the plan just mentioned is undoubtedly their best option.

Fu Xuan then added:

"I have also suggested to Jing Yuan that Luofu's course be diverted towards Fang Hu."

"That way, even if something goes wrong with Fang Hu, we'll be able to provide support immediately..."

After hearing this, Qingque already understood in her heart that no matter what she said now, it would be of no use to Fang Hu.

So, after simply replying a few words, Qingque gently put down Yu Zhao and took the initiative to end the call...

114

Chapter 114 Damn, how did Fang Hu become like this?

However, just as Qingque hung up the phone, he was privately worried that Fanghu Xianzhou was not fully prepared for the battle.

Inside the Fang Hu Immortal Boat, the war preparations, which had already been delayed, now encountered huge resistance...

Different from Yuque's divination, Yaoqing's military strength, Zhuming's casting, and Luofu's prosperity.

The most praised thing about Fanghu Xianzhou is its natural scenery which is recognized as the best in the alliance.

Especially the Donghai Cave Heaven, which is the most beautiful place in Fanghu Immortal Boat.

Look at that:

It dominates the vast ocean, dominates the Yaohai Sea, and has red cliffs, strange rocks, and steep cliffs and strange peaks.

There are longevity deer and fairy foxes in the forest, magical birds and black cranes on the trees, rare herbs and flowers that never fade, and green pines and cypresses that are evergreen.

Fairy peaches always bear fruit, tall bamboos always retain clouds, thousands of ravines are densely covered with vines, and the grass on the banks is fresh and green...

These beautiful landscapes embody the hard work and efforts of the Chiming people and have become their eternal and immortal home...

But now, this picturesque scenery is facing a catastrophe under the pressure of war preparation orders:

Dig trenches, erect artillery positions, clear firing ranges, build barracks...

All these serious military missions had to be carried out in these beautiful landscapes...

The valley that was once as quiet and poetic as a poem is now filled with the roar of machinery and the sound of metal clashing.

The crystal clear stream has now become muddy.

The clearing in the forest, once filled with birdsong and fragrance, has become a muddy place trampled by the Jin people...

All this beauty and harmony were ruthlessly destroyed under the urgent pressure of war preparations! ...

This change has profoundly affected the mood of the people of Fanghu, especially those ordinary people who have lived on this land for many years.

The Chiming people are long-lived and have been one with the natural landscape for thousands of years.

This place is not only their home, but also their spiritual habitat and an important anchor for them to connect with the world...

Faced with this sudden destruction, many people could not help but shed tears, their hearts filled with pain and confusion.

It's not that they don't understand the necessity of war preparations—

If the Fengrao people really threatened Fanghu as General Jingyuan said, then they would naturally cooperate without hesitation in building defense lines and trenches.

Even if it means ruining my family, I will do it...

However, the separation plan proposed by Fang Hu's top management unknowingly dispelled their inner sense of crisis...

Or just concentrate on preparing for battle!

Or just leave peacefully! ...
