It was precisely because of the system's assistance that Chu Fan dared to make the decision to personally go to the battlefield to face the possible dangers and challenges. The existence of the system gave Chu Fan more confidence and courage, allowing him to fearlessly face the various killings on the battlefield.

In addition, Chu Fan had a well-thought-out consideration, that is, if he could complete the task assigned by the system before Liu Xueyu gave birth to the child, then he could take Liu Xueyu back to Blue Star for delivery.

Because giving birth in ancient times was a risky undertaking, even in this world of warriors, the success rate of childbirth had increased, but Chu Fan still didn't dare to be careless or negligent. He knew that only on the technologically advanced Blue Star could Liu Xueyu and her child be guaranteed the best safety.

Chu Fan also had another important consideration, which was that he could not go back on his word and could not let the soldiers feel disheartened, otherwise it would likely lead to a breakdown in military morale, failure in the war, and even endanger the security of the entire Wei State.

He knew that if he broke his promise, the consequences would be disastrous. Fortunately, with the existence of the system, Chu Fan no longer feared being fatally injured on the battlefield, which gave him more confidence and courage.

If someone raises the question that even if Chu Fan, the emperor of Wei, appeared on the battlefield, the result would be futile and no different from if he did not appear on the battlefield, then such a view obviously does not understand the essence of the problem.

In fact, whether Chu Fan appeared on the battlefield or not was two completely different situations. Even if Chu Fan met with an accident on the battlefield, there were other capable princes in Wei who could step forward and take over his throne to ensure the continuity of government and the stability of the country.

Another thing is that when Chu Fan, as the emperor of Wei, personally went to war and unfortunately died on the battlefield, the soldiers would not be too panicked, because most of the soldiers of Wei were trained by General Mu Yunfeng, or at least had fought under his command.

Therefore, even if Emperor Chu Fan were to die, Mu Yunfeng would still be able to take swift action to calm the troops and continue to effectively command the battle. Furthermore, if Emperor Chu Fan were to be killed by the enemy on the battlefield, it would not only be a personal injury to Chu Fan, but also a great insult to the entire Wei army.

If their emperor was killed by the enemy under the protection of their own soldiers, the soldiers would be inspired with stronger fighting spirit and determination for revenge. If they could not avenge their emperor on the battlefield, they would be regarded as cowards even if they fled back to their hometown and would be unable to face their elders and fellow villagers.

Chu Fan's sacrifice would serve as a morale-boosting force, urging the soldiers to fight tooth and nail to regain dignity and victory. They would remember the Emperor Chu Fan's bravery and use him as a model for fighting, inspiring every soldier to brave the enemy and advance bravely on the battlefield, willing to sacrifice everything for the honor of their country and their own beliefs.

No matter who the next emperor of Wei is, as long as they don't withdraw, the Wei army will complete the combat objectives designated by Chu Fan. They will inherit Chu Fan's will and continue to fight bravely on the battlefield until they achieve their goals.

By then, every general and every soldier will internalize Chu Fan's spirit in their hearts and put it into practice, closely linking their personal honor with the fate of the country, and jointly write a glorious chapter for the State of Wei.

However, another situation is that Chu Fan avoids the threat and dares not go to the battlefield. Then the soldiers will think that the emperor of their country is a man of no credibility and lacks the courage to face war, which will directly shake the morale of the soldiers.

Even if someone succeeded the throne, the army would be demoralized and unable to rally. This loss of morale would lead to a breakdown in the will to fight, and thus, the entire army's combat effectiveness. The casualties would be Wei's soldiers, and the injuries would be its own people. The future of the nation would be shrouded in a gloom.

Even if Chu Fan completed his mission and returned to Blue Star, he would still be burdened with an indelible sense of guilt and regret. After all, he had been the protector of this nation, and his failure to protect his people would be a source of eternal pain. He would carry this heavy burden of guilt, unable to let it go no matter where he went. He felt that he had failed to protect the ordinary people of Wei, so who could he expect to protect him after returning to Blue Star?

However, at this moment, Liu Ruyan suddenly spoke. She showed an expression of sudden enlightenment. She seemed to understand something and then said:

"I finally understand. Chu Fan, the reason why you let Liu Mengli return to the Canglan Empire and deliberately revealed the news that Japan has gold mines and silver mountains is that you carefully planned all of this in order to attack the Xiongnu and the Gan Kingdom.

"And what you said to us sisters earlier about wanting to destroy the Wa Kingdom was actually an attempt to divert the attention of all forces on the Shengwu Continent. This would not only ensure Wei's strategic initiative, but also buy precious time for the ultimate defeat of the Xiongnu and the Gan Kingdom."

"In addition, as long as Liu Mengli reveals the news that Japan has gold mines and silver mountains in the Canglan Empire, those greedy forces in the Canglan Empire will inevitably flock to Japan to fight for those riches. And when Liu Mengli fights for power in the Canglan Empire, the Canglan Empire will fall into chaos.

In this way, the Canglan Empire will not be able to pose a threat to the Wei Kingdom, but may turn to the Wei Kingdom for help and form a strategic alliance. Because the resources Liu Mengli obtained were basically purchased from the Wei Kingdom, if the Canglan Empire fell into civil strife and lacked resources, it would inevitably rely on the support of the Wei Kingdom.

Chu Fan, your calculations are truly unfathomable. You have manipulated the countries and forces on the Shengwu Continent in your hands, weakening potential hostile forces while consolidating the position of the Wei Kingdom.

It was at this moment that Liu Ruyan deeply felt the huge difference between herself and Chu Fan. She realized that Chu Fan's desire to destroy the Japanese Kingdom was not just out of personal preference, but to achieve a greater strategic goal. Through clever planning, he would contain various forces and ensure that the Wei Kingdom would be the ultimate winner in this chaotic world.

However, what Liu Ruyan didn't know was that Chu Fan's desire to destroy the Japanese Kingdom was indeed due to his deep hatred for them. As for attacking the Xiongnu and the Gan Kingdom, Chu Fan was also motivated by the need to complete his mission, not by any cunning calculations, as Liu Ruyan thought.

Seeing this, Eunuch Li explained, "Miss Liu, you've misunderstood His Majesty. His Majesty's promise to destroy Japan is no joke; it's a carefully considered plan. He has already ordered the Royal Government Affairs Office to investigate Japan's mineral resources and has begun construction on massive ships capable of accommodating hundreds of people. Do you really believe His Majesty's grand blueprint is merely a diversion?"

Liu Ruyan was filled with disbelief when she heard this. Even though she had lived in the palace for this period of time, she had no idea about the construction of the large ship. If she had not sworn allegiance to Chu Fan, she might never have known such confidential information.
