Chapter 1066: A Quick Look at the National War
On the afternoon of the 23rd, Phoenix Prisoner hurriedly returned to Luofeng City.
In the battle of Dongpu, with the bravery of the Flame Army, Feng Prison Huang was successfully promoted to the Duke. This time, he rushed back to Luofeng City to apply for the promotion task of the capital.
Presumably it won't be long before the third capital city will be born in Huaxia District.
…………
The next morning, Hai Rui, governor of Qiongzhou, was ordered to arrive at Edo Castle to serve as governor of Yingzhou.
Ouyang Shuo decided on Hai Rui this time. On the one hand, Hai Rui was originally from Qiongzhou, and his long-term employment in the local area had a bad influence;
This transfer of Hai Rui to be the governor of Yingzhou was also Ouyang Shuo's reuse of Hai Rui.
With Hai Rui around, Ouyang Shuo was able to get out of his heavy affairs and get a good understanding of the situation of national wars around the world, so that he knew what was going on.
Asian continent.
In addition to Dongying being conquered by Huaxia, just yesterday afternoon, with the fall of Seoul, Koryo was also captured by Li Jing's troops. After Bai Qi defeated Nanzhang, he predicted that Chenla would be completely captured in two days.
Great Xia won all the three front battles and became the biggest winner in the global national war.
Not to mention anything else, Ouyang Shuo alone has gained millions of merit points, which is only 400,000 merit points away from the highest level of Tianzi Lord, which is very close at hand.
Ouyang Shuo was very curious about what kind of privileges Gaia would grant to the Viscount Tian. In the Chinese context, "Tianzi" is an amazing word, and the most representative one is Zhou Tianzi.
There is an old saying: "Use the emperor to command the princes."
Compared with the Battle of Annan, Ouyang Shuo's achievement in defeating the four kingdoms at once in the Great Xia was not as much as that of defeating the single kingdom in Annan, and it was still under the condition of the national war bonus.
The root cause is that Daxia fought alone in the Annan War, and Ouyang Shuo gained 600,000 to 700,000 merit points just by beheading professional combat players.
The National War Month is different. With a large number of adventure players participating, the enemy players basically don't rely on the army to solve the problem. After sharing, the meritorious value obtained by Ouyang Shuo will naturally be greatly reduced.
In addition to the national war in which China participated, the Java State successfully conquered East Timor, and the Johor State has also conquered the Mu Kingdom. In this way, only Java, Johor, Luzon, Pyu, and Siam remain among the ten ASEAN countries.
Among the five countries, Johor, Pyu, and Siam have signed a non-aggression treaty with Daxia, so there is no fear of war for the time being. Daxia's next offensive point is either Luzon or Java.
Luzon is a hard bone at the same level as Annan, because it has no land border with Daxia, it may be more difficult to defeat it, and it needs to be considered in the long run.
The country of Java is even more terrifying. The total number of players is 20 million, which is twice that of Japan. The 2 million forbidden troops stationed in the royal city of Coconut City are not something that the current Great Xia can shake.
Coupled with the fact that Java has just won East Timor, it is even more terrifying.
Naturally, Ouyang Shuo made a strategy of Luzon first and then Java. If the two countries are smart enough, they should form a closer alliance after the war to jointly fight against the threat of Great Xia.
"We must pry open a hole first!" Ouyang Shuo vaguely had an idea in his mind.
In addition to the ASEAN countries, the national war in Tianzhu also went very smoothly, successfully clearing away the inland obstacles, and becoming the most threatening game area bordering Tubo.
Tianzhu is also the only existence in Asia that can compete with China. Not to mention, the number of players in Tianzhu is also 100 million, and there are 10 million forbidden troops stationed in Wangcheng Delhi.
Just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle.
This is also why Tianzhu's background is not comparable to that of Huaxia, and there is only one royal city, which is a bit stretched.
In addition to Tianzhu, the Persian Empire in the west of Huaxia District has also quietly risen, and there is a tendency to merge into one. After this round of national war, it must soon enter the rhythm of opening a dynasty and establishing a country.
Ouyang Shuo, who was always paying attention to system announcements, noticed that before the end of the National War Month, the top ten dukes in the world had already been born one by one, and Phoenix was only ranked seventh.
Lord Pushkin of St. Petersburg, Lord Manstein of Rhine City, Lord Dilawa of Bangalore City, Lord William of Fort Evek, Lord Henry of Vic City and others are listed one by one.
Even Caesar was successfully promoted to Duke, ranking tenth on the ranking list.
In addition to the top ten, there must be a group of dukes around the world who have no chance to be announced in the system.
After the National War Month, the game world will officially enter the mode of imperial hegemony, and the lords who have not caught up with this wave of dukes are destined to be eliminated.
Apart from Asia, Ouyang Shuo was also concerned about the situation in North America.
It is reported that the Dawson dynasty has taken over Panama, taken over the Panama Canal, and mastered the lifeline channel connecting the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean.
This also opened the prelude to the foreign expansion of the Dawson Dynasty.
From now on, the Dawson Dynasty will definitely speed up the pace of global expansion and compete with Daxia for global sea dominance. The two overlords may have to confront each other for a long time.
And then there's continental Europe.
In this round of the national war month, the European game regions such as the United Kingdom, Spain, the Netherlands, and France surprisingly unanimously targeted the national war on the African continent, and succeeded one by one.
The historical wave of African colonization seems to be repeating itself.
In view of the existence of Daxia in the African continent, the future of Africa may be very lively.
The Italian region and the Greek region target the national war on the European continent, attempting to extend their spheres of influence inland in order to enhance their voice in the Mediterranean.
From then on, the entire continent of Europe will usher in a round of reshuffle. The strong will overtake the strong, the weak will overtake the weak, and they will even be eliminated directly. The situation where a hundred flowers bloom in Europe will gradually evolve into a Warring States period similar to China.
Then there is the Arab Empire bordering the Persian Empire.
All in all, for a long time to come, the game area along the Mediterranean Sea will not be too peaceful. If Daxia wants to maintain a strong presence in this area, it will face various challenges.
Especially with the intensification of mergers between game areas, several super dynasties will definitely be born in the future, and they will not allow the existence of Great Xia.
"There is a long way to go." Ouyang Shuo looked intently.
The above are just appearances. There are two invisible hands hidden in the chaos, one is the Silver Hand, and the other is the Federal Academy.
The two seem to be invisible, but they really affect the global game pattern.
Without Ouyang Shuo's presence, these two armies would have started from Gaia's five years, from the initial development of each other, to mutual infiltration, and then gradually turned into a local confrontation, and then an all-out war.
What now?
Daxia is caught in the middle, seemingly boundless scenery, but walking on thin ice.
"The world is like a chess game, who are the chess pieces and who is the player?" Ouyang Shuo still has no answer.
…………
On the afternoon of the 24th, Xiongba and his party arrived at Edo Castle to discuss the division of Dongying.
The adventurers of the Northern Route Army are still waiting for the distribution of spoils, and none of them have left Edo Castle. Seeing Xiongba and his party, some ridiculed, abused, and showed off, which made Xiongba very embarrassed.
Fortunately, Ouyang Shuo understood Xiongba's situation and quickly led them into the small courtyard.
In view of the fact that the two sides did not have much disagreement on how to divide Japan, the entire negotiation process went extremely smoothly, and there were basically no twists and turns.
Ouyang Shuo didn't expect Di Chen to be so knowledgeable, "That's good, it saves a lot of talking."
Xiongba even proposed that he hope to cooperate with Daxia on the route to the Americas, which was a very obvious gesture of favor, but was politely rejected by Ouyang Shuo.
Ouyang Shuo immediately understood the intention of Handan City.
Before the Battle of Japan, Handan City almost monopolized the entire Pacific shipping route. The ocean trade was booming, and the pockets were gradually bulging. Life should not be too comfortable.
Now that Daxia and Luofengcheng are suddenly joining the two spoilers, they naturally have a lot of worries.
Not to mention Luofeng City, he has no experience in ocean trade and has no such foundation. He needs to start from scratch. He is far from the opponent of Handan City, so he is not regarded by Dichen.
The key is Daxia.
In terms of developing ocean trade, Daxia is the real originator. Even now, with the Dawson Dynasty and other territories intervening in ocean trade one by one, Great Xia is still the world's largest trading territory.
More importantly, Daxia controls lifeline waterways such as the Strait of Malacca, the Gulf of Aden, the Strait of Gibraltar, and the Cape of Good Hope, and is a veritable maritime overlord.
Once Daxia strongly intervenes in the Pacific trade, life in Handan City will not be as easy as before, which is one of the reasons why Di Chen is not happy to capture Dongying.
To this day, territorial economy has become one of the key factors in whether it is strong or not.
On a global scale, all wealthy territories are basically large trade areas, so Dichen can't care much about the Pacific route.
Ouyang Shuo's blunt refusal made Xiongba quite frustrated and his expression was gloomy. No matter how Dichen decides, the fate of the Xiongba family has already been firmly tied to him at the moment of merging into Handan City.
Both prosper and lose both.
Seeing this, at the moment Xiongba left, Ouyang Shuo suddenly said: "Brother Xiongba, times have changed. Even the earth is gone, nothing remains the same."
When Xiongba heard this, his footsteps obviously paused, but he didn't look back after all, and left silently.
Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo sighed inwardly.
…………
After seeing off Xiongba and his party, Ouyang Shuo began to host the treasure distribution meeting, and all of them were top-notch.
