Chapter 1108

Summer Palace, Royal Study Room.

In the quiet room, Ouyang Shuo was sitting alone on the rosewood chair, reviewing the memorial, while wisps of green smoke wafted from the incense burner beside him.

This is the sapphire ambergris specially made by the medical sage Zhang Zhongjing, which can not only refresh the mind, but also help spiritual practice. Every gram of sapphire blue ambergris is worth thousands of gold. It is a rare good medicine, and Ouyang Shuo can use it luxuriously as incense.

As time went by, the thick stack of memorials dropped at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Since he has achieved success in cultivation, Ouyang Shuo has clear eyes and ears, and his memory and comprehension have risen to a new level. He can almost achieve a photographic memory and is full of energy.

The issue of memorials that plagued the emperors of all dynasties is hardly a problem in Ouyang Shuo.

Every day, Ouyang Shuo only needs to set aside two hours to review the memorials for the day, which is really amazing. During the period when Ouyang Shuo was reviewing the memorial, it was strictly forbidden for anyone to disturb him.

At this moment, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door. The person who came seemed to be in a hurry, but he didn't dare to knock on the door when he got there, he just walked back and forth.

"Who's outside? Come in!"

Ouyang Shuo was so keen, he caught the information outside the door at once, and knew that there must be an urgent message from the front line.

"promise!"

There was a sound from outside the door, and he pushed the door lightly and entered, but it was the captain of the Shenwu Guard who was on duty.

"Report, Your Majesty, an urgent report from the front line!"

The captain stepped forward and handed a letter to him.

Ouyang Shuo nodded, "Let's put it down!" He guessed that the Dongpu naval battle had made the first progress, and when he opened it, it turned out to be the battle report written by Qi Jiguang.

Seeing that the Handan Fleet would rather sink the merchant ship by itself than accept Daxia's interrogation, Ouyang Shuo was a little surprised, "I didn't expect Dichen to make such a decision, but I underestimated him."

After reading the battle report, Ouyang Shuo commented a line at the end: "It is advisable to chase after the poor."

…………

After Ouyang Shuo finished annotating the letter, he immediately forwarded it to the Military Aircraft Department, and sent a copy to the cabinet and related organizations.

Just like a starting gun, following Ouyang Shuo's order, the Da Xia machine that had been ready for a long time was roaring again, ready to deal a fatal blow to Da Zhou at the most unlikely time.

First, the imperial guards received the military order and immediately sent it to Edo Castle in Yingzhou County to gather in the direction of Shikoku Island and Kyushu Island. Also mobilized at the same time was the newly formed Yingzhou Corps.

Bing is expensive and fast, and the Imperial Guard is going to launch an island raid this time.

In addition to military operations, Daxia also has to fight this public opinion war and occupy the moral high ground. The Honglu Temple External Propaganda Department has already prepared and immediately held a press conference.

At the press conference, Violet released the key evidence collected by the Great Xia Binhai Fleet, clearly pointing out that Da Zhou has been involved in the dispute between Da Xia and the Kingdom of Jin, which is tantamount to declaring war on Da Xia in a disguised form.

"In the afternoon, after the Dazhou Handan Fleet fired first, our Binhai Fleet and the Pacific Fleet resolutely counterattacked, and the two sides launched a fierce battle in the Dongying Sea." Violet explained.

This time, public opinion was in an uproar.

Immediately, a reporter asked: "Will the confrontation between Daxia and Dazhou stop at this naval battle, or will it expand further, and even turn into an all-out war?"

This is what Huaxia players are most concerned about.

Violet smiled slightly, and replied: "Daxia's position is clear and firm, and will never take the initiative to provoke internal fighting in Huaxia. However, if Dazhou takes the initiative to provoke, Daxia will not hesitate to fight."

"Hiss~~~~"

Violet's tough statement made the reporters present gasp.

The storm is coming.

"Can you tell us more about Daxia's next military plan?" someone asked.

Violet didn't hide anything, and replied: "Just now, the rest of the Dazhou Handan Fleet has retreated to Kyushu Island, accompanied by liaison officers from the Kingdom of Jin and important officials from the Qing Dynasty. In order to clarify the misunderstanding, Dazhou must take the initiative to hand over the relevant personnel and hand over After Daxia interrogates, he will be released. Otherwise, the two sides will only have to fight each other."

If it was a secret transaction between the two parties, with Dichen's temperament, he might reluctantly agree to it. Now that Daxia took the initiative to disclose the news to the public, and Dichen still agreed, it would not be Dichen.

It's clear that Da Xia is going to meet Da Zhou in battle.

"In addition, we would like to take this opportunity to announce that in view of Da Zhou's disgraceful military operations in the East Ocean waters, from today onwards, our fleet's patrols in the East Ocean waters will become a routine."

Violet said that it was almost obvious that the Dazhou fleet would be banned from entering and leaving the Dongying Sea in the future.

Then there were a few more questions. Violet played the leading role in the whole press conference, which not only declared Daxia's position, but also showed Daxia's determination to retaliate, and his attitude was extremely tough.

After the meeting, relevant news spread throughout the Huaxia District, causing heated discussions.

"What's the reason for the revival of the Huaxia District?"

"The Handan Fleet took the initiative to fire, and the Great Xia Navy pursued and fought fiercely. Who is right?"

"The turmoil caused by a naval battle, the Huaxia District is not peaceful, and there is no room for two tigers in one mountain!!!"

"It is China's disgrace for the Qing to link up with the Kingdom of Jin. Support Daxia's military operations!"

"It's hard to argue, Da Zhou is the most wronged?"

Not only players, but all major forces in Huaxia District are secretly observing the latest developments of the situation. In particular, the Qing Dynasty and the Kingdom of Jin, who were one of the parties involved, frequently negotiated and interacted with Da Zhou.

The whole wilderness became lively again.

…………

Handan City, the palace.

"It's just too deceiving!"

After reading the news about Daxia's press conference, Dichen was furious.

Almost immediately, Peerless Fenghua organized a forum navy to try to clarify the matter, saying that the Handan Fleet was only firing on merchant ships, not necessarily the Daxia Fleet.

It was Da Xia, not Da Zhou, who really started the war.

The problem is, the players in Huaxia District don't believe it at all, "Fire at your own merchant ship, do you think we are stupid?" Players will only believe their common sense deduction, and don't pay attention to the facts themselves.

What's more, Da Zhou's words are so unbelievable.

In particular, Da Zhou has experienced the battle of Japan and the underestimation of public opinion on the battle map, and he has not completely recovered from it. Players naturally do not trust Da Zhou from the bottom of their hearts.

On the contrary, during the just-concluded National War Month, Great Xia showed off its prestige for the Huaxia District and raised the face of the Huaxia players. Its popularity was not so high. Don't think about it, everyone is definitely on Da Xia's side.

Even if Da Zhou's navy broke his mouth, it won't help, but it will become more and more black.

Seeing this, Jue Dai Fenghua could only accept his fate and swallow this bitter fruit. Therefore, regardless of the invisibility of the people's will, at critical moments, it can often affect the fate of a dynasty.

The cause that Da Zhou planted before finally bears today's fruit.

Dichen has never been in such a mess like today. Before that, they took the initiative to smear Daxia, and they often received miraculous results. He never thought that there would be a day when Daxia countered.

"The sky has really changed!" Di Chen's face was gloomy.
