Chapter 1159 A Gloomy Day

February 5th, the sixth year of Gaia, New Year's Eve, Shanhai City.

It was another New Year's Eve, and due to the influx of a large number of players, this year's Shanhai City became more and more lively, with an unprecedented grand occasion, and the streets and alleys were full of tourists.

Hundreds of stages, dozens of temple fairs, countless fireworks, a dazzling array of exotic goods, and various acrobatic performances allow players who have just settled in Daxia to see the details of the First Dynasty.

"I can't see such a shocking scene in Wangcheng!" The player couldn't help feeling.

In the summer palace, just like last year, the royal family's New Year's Eve dinner was in full swing, with a lot of wine and wine. Compared with last year, this year's people are less cautious and more confident.

Within a year, many clansmen successfully passed the probationary assessment and entered the yamen, and some even held important positions and became active in Daxia official circles.

Even so, everyone's respect for Ouyang Shuo continued unabated.

To the clansmen, Ouyang Shuo also showed both kindness and power. In a year, there were quite a few "playboys".

After the banquet was over, Ouyang Shuo invited the clan elders to have a drink in the imperial garden as usual, while the younger generation went like wild horses, throwing themselves into the rich nightlife of Shanhai City.

On New Year's Eve this year, Gaia didn't do any more activities.

In five years, players have already adapted to the game world, and there is no need for Gaia to "join in the fun". Players will naturally have various celebrations, full of New Year flavor.

Gaia can also be regarded as "retired after success".

…………

On the first day of the first lunar month, Daxia held a grand and solemn ceremony to sacrifice to the heavens with the etiquette of the emperor, offering sacrifices to the three emperors and five emperors, and declaring China's orthodox status.

The whole ceremony completely followed the ancient rituals, making those who witnessed it feel like they had experienced a cultural baptism.

At the ceremony, Ouyang Shuo did not invite the kings to watch the ceremony after all.

Daxia has not really established absolute authority in the Huaxia District. At this time, it is not ripe to invite the kings to come to watch the ceremony. It is suspected of deliberately showing off, which may arouse the resentment of the kings.

Even so, after the sacrifice was over, Ouyang Shuo still sent envoys to send the sacrificial giblets to the dynasties one by one.

As for whether to accept it or not, it is different.

…………

The next week is the Spring Festival holiday again.

Until February 13th, the Yamen opened again, heralding the beginning of a new year.

As soon as the court opened, a lot of major events were announced, including the promulgation of the "Civil Code", "Criminal Code" and "Commercial Code", the comprehensive promotion of industrialization and farmland reclamation, etc.

The plan for a year lies in spring!

Although winter has not yet passed, Daxia has awakened again and is operating quickly. With the implementation of many grand strategies one by one, Daxia will usher in a new round of transformation and upgrading.

After promulgating the decree, Ouyang Shuo did not stay in Shanhai City anymore, but officially started a one-month inspection tour, planning to complete the inspection of the field armies in one month.

Even during the Spring Festival holiday, the army did not all have a holiday.

Among other things, just the monsters emerging from the monster lair is enough for Da Xia Jun to drink a pot. Just as Ouyang Shuo predicted, during the Spring Festival, the animal horde showed no signs of abating.

On the contrary, it is still getting worse.

During his inspections, Ouyang Shuo often encountered sporadic monsters in the wilderness. These fish that slipped through the net were a huge hidden danger to the local public security.

The dragon hunter, which was not very eye-catching before, is even more elusive, specially attacking lonely pedestrians, or sneaking into villages, hunting poultry, full of destructive power.

The imperial court has instructed the governor's office to immediately start the reserve service at the county level and the militia organization at the village level, as an effective supplement to encircle and suppress monsters.

In this way, the situation improved slightly.

There are sixty-four Daxia Field Army Corps, spread all over the dynasty. In a month, Ouyang Shuo can only patrol around in a casual manner. Even so, the soldiers are very excited.

Especially those veterans who fought with Ouyang Shuo before, they hadn't seen the king for a long time, this time they could shake hands with him again, have a meal, and chat with him, enough to bring tears to their eyes.

These veterans are the souls of the Great Xia army.

Ouyang Shuo was also filled with emotion, some things cannot be carried by loyalty.

After Gaia's "Super God", even if it reaches the planet of hope, the game world will not stop running, but will continue to evolve and improve, getting closer and closer to a real world.

Especially for the robot family, the game world is a giant hatchery. With the evolution of the game world, the intelligence of NPC will only become higher and higher, so as to realize autonomous evolution.

Until then, for artificial intelligence, the game world is the real world.

Ouyang Shuo only hopes that no matter how the future changes, whether or not they can be realized in the real world, they can regard themselves as a part of Great Xia, that's enough.

…………

While Ouyang Shuo was patrolling the army, the Silver Hand was also moving quietly.

After the plan to destroy the world failed, the Silver Hand didn't give up at all, and then launched the cannibalization plan. The preferred target was the province of Daxia Morocco.

Although Daxia has fully opened all ports and waterways, with the arrogance of Silver Hand, he is still unhappy that the key waterways are controlled by Daxia.

The European and American continents have always been under the control of the Silver Hand, and Great Xia is really not allowed to have influence in this area, which is simply a humiliation to the Silver Hand.

Before the disintegration of the Federation, they were still scruples about the academics, but now, the two organizations intend to join forces to kick Daxia out of the competition.

At least with regard to the Great Xia issue, the two organizations already have quite a tacit understanding.

Coupled with the fact that the former federal president is losing power in the organization, the azure badge has gone to another "crossroad". This is really not good news for Daxia.

Because of the existence of the teleportation array, it is not an easy task for the Silver Hand to break through the Moroccan province. They must be fully prepared to face Daxia's crazy counterattack.

The first one is to cut off the Great Xia Atlantic Fleet.

The Atlantic Fleet is the biggest bargaining chip for Great Xia to exert influence in the Atlantic Ocean, and it is precisely because of the existence of this fleet that the European lords have never dared to go too far.

This time, they were no longer prepared to endure it.

On March 1, the joint operation began.

Within a month, the Dawson Fleet of the Dawson Dynasty, the Royal Fleet of the Gundor Dynasty, the Spanish Armada, the Gallic Fleet of the Gallic Dynasty, and the Portuguese Fleet quietly assembled under the cover of the joint escort at sea. The opportunity to conduct inspections, surrounded them in one fell swoop.

Five against one.

Even if the Atlantic Fleet is alert and has extraordinary combat power, and even formed the first magic-powered submarine formation in Daxia, it still cannot defeat it.

As soon as the battle started, Álvaro notified Ouyang Shuo who was patrolling the army through the communication compass. Even so, Ouyang Shuo couldn't do anything.

Not only is it across the ocean, but it is also a naval battle, and the Great Xia Army cannot support it at all.

All Ouyang Shuo could do was to hastily end his inspection trip, rush back to Shanhai City, and urgently discuss countermeasures. Based on Ouyang Shuo's understanding of the Silver Hand, once he has made a move, it is absolutely impossible to give up halfway.

The first thing he thought of was the safety of the Moroccan province.

On this side, Daxia is still discussing countermeasures, while on the other side, the fleets of both sides are clashing fiercely at sea.

Ouyang Shuo has already instructed Alvaro to allow the fleet to retreat if there is no way to defeat the enemy. First retreat to the port, and then make a long-term plan.

There are torpedo nets in the port, and the enemy fleet dare not trespass.

The problem is, how could the United Fleet deliberately set this trap so that the Atlantic Fleet could break free easily. The entire sea area is a battlefield, and there is no way to retreat.

In Jack's words, it means "return him in the same way, teach Da Xia a profound lesson, and make Ouyang Shuo realize that who is in charge of this world."

Jack has always been worried about the destruction of the Liberty Fleet.

This was the largest super sea battle in history, and it lasted for three days and three nights.

The waters near Morocco were bleeding and drifting, almost turning into a red sea. Countless warship wrecks were rushed to the beaches of the Moroccan provinces, which was shocking.

In this battle, the Silver Hand Super Combined Fleet finally defeated the Atlantic Fleet in one fell swoop after suffering huge casualties, making the fleet a complete history.

Fleet Admiral Alvaro and Deputy Admiral Lu Meng were all killed in battle.

It is reported that the Spaniards tried to persuade Alvaro to lead the Spanish Armada again, but Alvaro refused. He only said: "I am already a Bactrian, and I would rather die in battle!"

This is a gloomy day for the Great Xia Navy and the Great Xia Dynasty.
