Chapter 1111 Fight, Keep Fighting!

If Da Xia wants to maintain hegemony through war, he must choose the right target.

Right now, the war between Great Xia and the Kingdom of Jin has just begun, and the confrontation between the south and Luzon has never stopped. They are already fighting on two fronts, so they must not be too impatient.

Du Ruhui even suggested, "The war with the Kingdom of Jin has just started, and our army has only crossed the border, but we can still retreat. Should we suspend the war with the Kingdom of Jin, and wait until the foreign invasion is calmed down, before we think about it?"

Ouyang Shuo shook his head resolutely, "The war of the Kingdom of Jin cannot be stopped, it must be fought to the end. As the saying goes, we must secure our internal affairs first, since the war has started, there is no turning back, otherwise our deterrence in China will be greatly reduced."

"However, the Great Zhou army has already set up defenses at the border, and I am worried that they will take the opportunity to break into the northern Xinjiang province and disrupt our army's rear." It was based on such concerns that Du Ruhui proposed to call off the war for the time being.

Ouyang Shuo's opinion was different from Du Ruhui's, "Da Zhou is bluffing. He ordered the three armies of Hu Ben, Bao Tao, and Ying Yang to move on the border. Once Da Zhou intervenes in the battle of the North, we will not hesitate to fight with him." They started a full-scale war to let Da Zhou know why the flowers are so popular."

In order to wipe out the Kingdom of Jin, Da Xia stationed a garrison division in the northern Xinjiang province, without a single soldier. It was simply undefended against Da Zhou.

By doing this, Ouyang Shuo counted himself as dead and Di Chen didn't dare to send troops.

Ouyang Shuo was delighted that Dichen really had the guts to take this opportunity to start a war with Da Zhou, completely eliminate this internal problem, so that he could concentrate on fighting Jack in the global arena.

Du Ruhui nodded after listening.

Ouyang Shuo thought for a while, and then said, "Well, Keming, I appoint you as an imperial envoy to go to the northern border provinces to supervise the battle on behalf of the king, to declare the court's determination to fight, and to cheer up the frontline soldiers."

"No!" Du Ruhui nodded again, very resolutely.

"Tell Commander Yue Fei on my behalf, let him not have any worries, Great Xia is not the Southern Song Dynasty in history, don't engage in concubines, let him let go, and attack the Kingdom of Jin in one fell swoop for this king." Ouyang Shuo instructed Said.

"Your Majesty, please don't worry, I will definitely tell you!"

Du Ruhui was very moved, and he didn't have any worries, this is the majestic power of Da Xia.

…………

Because the next discussions were all about military matters, Ouyang Shuo asked Jiang Shang and Fan Li to step down first, and at the same time asked the Ministry of Finance to quickly draw up a plan for the impact on ocean trade.

After sitting down again, Ouyang Shuo looked at Zhang Liang and asked, "Which move does Zifang think we should take now, which can not only deter TWP, but also reap real benefits?"

When it comes to dynasty strategy issues, Zhang Liang is naturally the one with the most say.

Hearing this, Zhang Liang got up and came to the world map hanging on the wall of the Imperial Study Room, and slowly said: "The core of TWP is the Dawson Dynasty, and it will also be the greatest enemy of Great Xia on the global battlefield in the future."

"Shooting snakes and hitting seven inches. If you want to deter TWP, the best way is to teach the Dawson Dynasty a lesson, so that the global lords realize that even the rapidly rising Dawson Dynasty is not the opponent of Daxia."

Hearing this, Ouyang Shuo's eyes suddenly lit up, Zhang Liang was worthy of being Zhang Liang, he really dared to think that he would touch the hardest bone of the Silver Hand as soon as he came up, it could be said that he would do the opposite.

"I guess you already have a specific goal for coming to the ovary?" Ouyang Shuo asked with a smile.

Zhang Liang nodded, pointing with a false finger: "My minister suggests, take this place down completely."

"The Hawaiian Islands?"

"That's right." Zhang Liang explained, "Right now, we are sharing Hawaii equally with the Dawson Dynasty, and no one can gain the upper hand. As long as the Dawson Dynasty is expelled from the Hawaiian Islands, it will not only show the strength of our Great Xia navy, but also gain the power of the Pacific Ocean." Absolute command of the sea can be said to kill two birds with one stone."

After hearing this, Ouyang Shuo didn't express his opinion immediately.

The battle for the Hawaiian Islands can actually be seen as a battle between the Great Xia Pacific Fleet and the Dawson Dynasty Freedom Fleet. Whether it is size, weaponry, or combat level, the two fleets are comparable.

It is not easy to monopolize Hawaii.

But just as Zhang Liang said, because it is not easy, once Great Xia does it, it will be able to deal a heavy blow to the Dawson Dynasty, severely setback its ambition to rise at sea, and deter the world.

Ouyang Shuo didn't express his opinion immediately, he tapped his fingers on the table unconsciously, and started a war with the Freedom Fleet in Hawaii. Apart from the tactical impact, Ouyang Shuo also had to consider the strategic one.

Once the war started, it would be like facing the Dawson Dynasty head-on.

After offending the Emperor's family, to provoke the Dawson family, it means that Daxia and the Silver Hand have no room for maneuver, and they must fight to the end.

"Forget it!"

Ouyang Shuo finally made up his mind, looked at Zhang Liang with his hands slightly clasped, and said, "The Ministerial Council cooperates with the Navy Command to draw up a detailed battle plan before discussing this matter."

"Understood!" Zhang Liang nodded.

Soldiers are the major events of the country, the place of death and life, and the way of survival. Since you are going to go to war, you must be fully prepared, otherwise you will capsize in the gutter.

Zhang Liang went on to say: "In addition to attacking Hawaii, I also noticed that this time the TWP is aggressive, almost including the world's major dynasties. But there is one dynasty that did not participate in it."

"You are the Indian Empire of Guide America?"

"Yes." Zhang Liang nodded, "My minister thinks that the Indian Empire is a target that can be won. The imperial court should formally put the expansion of South American trade on the agenda. It would be best to send a mission to visit the Indian Empire."

In the early days, Ouyang Shuo arranged for the Pacific Fleet to try to open up trade routes with South America. However, the Pacific Ocean is too vast and pirates are rampant. It will not happen overnight to completely open up the shipping routes.

The sea trade routes between the Dazhou Dynasty and the Dawson Dynasty were opened up together. Even so, merchant ships were attacked by pirates from time to time, and it was not really peaceful.

In addition, the sea route between Daxia and South America is too far away, and there is no place for supplies in the middle except the Hawaiian Islands, which is also a major obstacle to ocean trade.

On the premise that there is a route to the Mediterranean Sea, the Great Xia Caravan is not very motivated to expand trade in South America.

With the establishment of TWP, Daxia's ocean-going trade is bound to suffer setbacks in the short term, and the thorough opening of the South American trade route can indeed become a new growth point for ocean-going trade.

The vast South American continent contains endless wealth.

Ouyang Shuo had a plan, and said, "The matter of going to the Indian Empire will be postponed for the time being, and we will talk about it later when we take down the Hawaiian Islands. There is no meeting ceremony, and Honglu Temple is not easy to use."

"The king is wise!" Zhang Liang nodded in agreement.

Seeing that His Majesty had a good discussion with Zhang Liang about Hawaii, Du Ruhui took the opportunity to say, "I want to report to Your Majesty, do you want to put some pressure on the Lion Kingdom's submission to the Maurya Dynasty?"
