Chapter 1291 – Mysterious Guest
3rd month, 10th day, just as the Persian Empire was facing a dilemma, the House of Ogedai suddenly surrendered to them, seeking sanctuary from the Persian Empire.
This instantly made the situation in West Asia complicated.
With things reaching such a state, the Persian Empire had no reason to reject them. If they did, how could they continue to survive in the game?
Ouyang Shuo did not expect Ogedai to be so spineless.
After this event, Ouyang Shuo ordered the Honglu Temple to head toward the Persian Empire once more. Apart from emphasizing the rights of Great Xia with regard to the 13 cities, they also suggested that Persian Empire hand over Ogedai.
The reason behind their demand was the fact that Ogedai had ordered the closure of the castle, resulting in the deaths of Wang Ben’s forces. This was a massive case, and the Persian Empire should not interfere.
Since the Persian Empire had accepted Ogedai’s surrender, it had to accept the legal case too.
Now, it was up to how the Persian Empire was going to react.
...
3rd month, 15th day, the Europe Continent that had been really nervous finally exploded.
At 10am, the House of Tudor, Gaule Dynasty, Spain Dynasty, Caesar Dynasty, and Romanov Dynasty made a joint statement to form an Alliance Army, splitting into three paths to strike at the Ottoman Dynasty.
Needless to say, if the Spanish wanted to send troops to the Ottoman Dynasty, they would have to pass through the Gaule Dynasty that was in the way.
The House of Tudor Army had to cross the English straits, disembarking onto Gaule Dynasty land. After the three armies met up, they would strike the Ottoman Dynasty through the Central European plains.
Such a formation was similar to World War II in history.
Apart from Europe, in West Africa, due to the conflict of the six countries, the atmosphere became really solemn. Even the Middle Africa region occupied by the Dawson Dynasty was preparing their troops.
It seemed like the Africa Continent was about to break into war.
That was exactly what happened. Just as war broke out in Europe, the Africa continent, Egypt, and Bantu Dynast that belonged to Azure Badge immediately mobilized their armies.
The Bantu Dynasty threatened Central Africa while Egypt Dynasty threatened West Africa.
The two dynasties used their own methods to try to reduce the pressure on the Ottoman Dynasty in Europe.
Putting it simply, the Ottoman Dynasty was the true core of Azure Badge. If it were destroyed, Azure Badge would collapse to the ground.
There was even a chance of the organization disbanding.
With just the two dynasties in Africa, even the Gupta Dynasty in India was unable to support the ambitions of Azure Badge. Even the Maple and Mayan dynasties were in a bad state before the Dawson Dynasty.
Hence, facing the combined attacks of Silver Hand, Azure Badge had to go all out.
Unfortunately, a difference in strength existed between the two sides. Just as the Egypt and Bantu dynasties were about to enter West Africa, the Arab Empire mobilized too.
In the middle of the two dynasties was just the Suez Canal.
Not only that, but even the Persian Empire that was far away from the Europe continent was preparing to send troops to pass through the Caesar Dynasty and enter Ottoman Dynasty land.
The poor Ottoman Dynasty was now surrounded by enemies.
This time, Silver Hand was truly going all out to try and wipe out the Ottoman Dynasty in one strike.
If they occupied the Ottoman Dynasty, Silver Hand would take control of Europe and North America. With that, they would have enough resources to fight against Great Xia.
Its strategic goal was pretty obvious.
...
Along with the war of Europe breaking out, a huge world war started surrounding Silver Hand and Azure Badge.
Under such circumstances, Great Xia, who should have been expanding eagerly, appeared really quiet. Even when the 3rd month passed, Great Xia showed no signs of sending troops.
This made the two camps fight even greater intensity.
...
4th month, 1st day, Imperial City.
Within the Imperial Reading Room, Military Affairs minister Du Ruhui was reporting to Ouyang Shuo, “Your majesty, the guns and cannons have been sold to the Indian Empire. They have followed the agreement and are sending grain to Ecuador.”
Ouyang Shuo nodded.
The start of the war of Europe was really good for the Indian Empire.
With Great Xia selling them this batch of firearms, they could take the chance while the Spain Dynasty was at war to counterattack after some slight training.
As a result, it was no wonder that Juarez was so crisp in handing over the grain.
“How long will the grain take to get transported?” Ouyang Shuo asked.
“As it’s a huge amount, a month is needed.”
Ouyang Shuo nodded once more and instructed, “The war between the Dawson Dynasty and the Maple Dynasty cannot be completed in a short while. There’s enough time for the America warzone to prepare, so there’s no need to rush.”
A day ago, Di Chen had already contacted the Maple Dynasty.
After learning that Great Xia was willing to sell them weapons, they did not hesitate and directly agreed to a 30 million gold super deal.
This was also just the first deal.
With this batch of firearms, it would be impossible for the Dawson Dynasty to end the battle quickly. Different from cold weapons, one to two months was enough to train a passable gunner. It also did not have high requirements for the soldiers.
The Maple Dynasty was definitely going to attack.
With the help of the firearms, even the players of the Maple Dynasty were going to join the war.
The weak side that Jack was preying on was quickly becoming a tough opponent.
Apart from the Maple Dynasty, the Mayan Dynasty also made a 20 million gold worth order. For this, Shen City, Zhenhai City, and other industrialized new cities’ first orders basically had to do with military works.
Many cities began a new round of steelmaking craze.
“On the side of Africa, we must have strategic confidence and prepare well. We must not move too lightly.” Ouyang Shuo instructed.
From a strategic point of view, it was impossible for Great Xia to swallow up the entire Africa.
Even if the military had the ability, the internal affairs might not be able to manage it. Blindly expanding the Africa Governor-General House would only cause problems for the Empire.
After taking down East Africa, Ouyang Shuo actually only craved for North and South Africa. The latter controlled the Cape of Good Hope, while the former controlled the Suez Canal, which could let him enter the Mediterranean.
As for Central and West Africa, those areas were not what the Empire needed.
However, these two had a dynasty rooted there, so war could not be started easily.
Ouyang Shuo was waiting for a chance.
He believed that along with the war of Europe proceeding, a chain reaction on the Africa Continent would occur. It would be Great Xia’s chance when that happened.
Du Ruhui smiled and said, “General Baiqi would definitely understand.”
Ouyang Shuo nodded. Just as he was about to give instructions regarding West Asia, Head Advisor Tsing Yi suddenly walked in and said, “Your majesty, there’s an important visitor.”
“Let the Honglu Temple receive him.” Ouyang Shuo was curious.
Tsing Yi’s expression was a little weird, and she said, “I think it’s better for your majesty to personally receive him.”
“Oh?”
Ouyang Shuo’s brows furrowed.
Tsing Yi was a person who knew the importance of matters. Since she had said that, the visitor must be really important.
Till date, there were very few guests that needed Ouyang Shuo to personally host them.
Tsing Yi said a name.
When Ouyang Shuo heard it, his face was filled with surprise as he said, “It’s actually him? Okay, I’ll go welcome him.”
“Your majesty, I’ll take my leave.” Du Ruhui knew his place.
Ouyang Shuo nodded before standing up and following Tsing Yi out of the Imperial Reading Room to meet this mysterious guest.
