It was yet another dreary week.
The Great Xia's war against the Jin was going smoothly as usual. The army led by Yue Fei had already reached the Huining Prefecture, the capital of the Jin Empire. As long as they could take this city, they could declare the end of the war.
For this reason, the combat division had specially mobilized three hundred P1 cannons to support the front lines.
Just as Ouyang Shuo had predicted, the Great Zhou army only swaggered along the border, not daring to take the slightest step forward. They simply did not have the guts to provoke an all-out war with the Great Xia.
Outside the Huining Prefecture, in the central barracks.
Dressed in martial attire, Yue Fei gazed at the towering city in front of him with a complicated expression. He muttered to himself, "I never thought that I would one day lead an army to destroy the Jin Empire. The heavens bless Hua Xia!"
He had been looking forward to this battle for a long time.
… …
The battle in the south at Lavag had fallen into a stalemate.
After the sudden wave of attacks from the Luzon camp, they saw that they had not achieved any results. They had lost their spirit and were unable to sustain for long. The strength of their attacks began to decline and were no longer able to pose a substantial threat to the Xia Kingdom.
Seeing this, Bai Qi, the commander of the Dragon Stallion Army, suddenly mobilized the Second Dragon Stallion Army from Hanoi Province to assist in the battle and launch a counterattack against the Luzon army.
The Luzon army was at its weakest, and the Great Xia's fresh assault caused them to be unable to maintain their defensive line. In less than half a day, the Great Xia army broke through their defensive line and collapsed their formation.
This sudden defeat caused the Luzon army's morale to plummet to an all-time low.
Bai Qi seized this opportunity and pursued the Great Xia army, attempting to expand his victory. The Dragon Stallion Army's two armies were like two dragons that fiercely charged south. In the short span of three days, they had captured a prefecture of Luzon.
In this battle alone, the Dragon Stallion Army had captured more than fifty thousand prisoners of war. These prisoners did not linger in Lavag, but were escorted overnight to Moroca Province to be reorganized.
A few days ago, Ouyang Shuo had issued an edict upgrading the Moroca Army to the West African Army. The original commander of the Moroca Army, Shi Dakai, was promoted to the West African Army's commander, a second-rank Eastern Expedition General.
Like the Northern Frontier Army and the Hanoi Army, the West African Army was also a border guard.
With this batch of prisoners of war, in addition to the original 100,000 soldiers in Moroca Province, they could barely be reorganized into two corps. There was still some distance between them and the five full corps of the army.
Fortunately, after the end of the war, there would be a large number of captives waiting to be reorganized.
After capturing this county, after consulting the Imperial Court, Bai Qi transferred the Third and Fourth Legions of the Dragon Stallion Army to the battlefield at Luzon, using this county as a base to establish a new defensive line.
The Battle of Luzon was getting on track.
Anyone with a discerning eye knew that an all-out war was about to break out with the fall of Luzon County.
…
In addition to the northern and southern fronts, there were also new developments on the eastern and western fronts.
In the west, the Indian Ocean Fleet led by the Smoke and Fire Demon had already completed the replenishment and quietly completed the encirclement of the Maldives. As long as he gave the order, the fleet would be able to tear the Maldives into pieces.
During this period, the two major forces, the Peacock Imperial Court and Java, seemed to be somewhat aware of the actions of the Indian Ocean Fleet of the Great Xia Dynasty and instinctively strengthened their patrols of their own waters.
The Peacock Imperial Court was worried that the Great Xia would forcibly take down the Lion Kingdom, while the Java Kingdom was worried that they would follow in the footsteps of Luzon and be taken down by the Great Xia fleet.
Little did they know that Great Xia's target wasn't here at all.
On the contrary, their shrinking of the line of defense provided convenience for the Indian Ocean Fleet's maritime operations.
In the east, the caravan escorted by the Cliff Mountain Fleet successfully arrived at the Hawaiian Islands. They pretended to rest and reorganize, but in fact, they were unloading supplies and making final preparations to encircle the freedom fleet of the Dawson Dynasty.
The freedom fleet also only had two formations stationed in Hawaii. The other two formations were responsible for patrolling the waterways and didn't stop in Hawaii all the time. The last formation was stationed on the west coast of the Dawson Dynasty.
The strategic goal of the Great Xia this time was to completely defeat the two formations of the freedom fleet stationed in Hawaii, and it would be best if they could wipe out the two patrol formations one by one.
In this way, the freedom fleet could be completely paralyzed.
…
Gaia Fifth Year, October 7th, Morocco Province.
Just as the fangs of the Great Xia were in position, the deadline for the reply to Pope had arrived.
The governor of Morocco, Mulan Yue, followed Ouyang Shuo's instructions and very reluctantly handed over the letter of credence that the Great Xia was willing to open the Strait of Gibraltar.
As soon as the news came out, the Mediterranean Sea immediately fell into a jubilation.
…
Rome District, Caesar City.
Lord Caesar drank a glass of red wine and said playfully, "It seems that the Great Xia is just a paper tiger. In the face of a behemoth like Pope, they admit defeat just like that."
"Since the Strait of Gibraltar has been opened, the next step should be the Gulf of Aden!" Caesar was a person who was insatiable. His ultimate goal was to completely drive the Great Xia out of the Mediterranean Sea.
"The European continent doesn't need a heretic like the Great Xia!"
Caesar was full of confidence.
…
Spain District, Tortosa City.
A few days ago, Tortosa City successfully destroyed the last opponent in the region, Malaga City, and completed the unification of the region. The next step was to establish a kingdom and establish a dynasty that matched the status of Spain.
Seeing that the Great Xia had resigned themselves to opening the Strait of Gibraltar, Lord Casillas of Tortosa City immediately had a different idea. He thought to himself, The Port of Gibraltar was originally seized by Great Xia from the hands of Spain. It doesn't seem enough for the Great Xia to just open the port. It's best if they can take back this place.
If they could take back the Port of Gibraltar, it would undoubtedly be a great opportunity for Tortosa City.
"Hey, I have to discuss this with Jack and the rest!" Casillas looked into the distance as if he could see the beautiful future of the territory. The corner of his mouth unconsciously revealed a trace of a smile.
"It's good to have an organization!"
…
Atlantis City.
Queen Kalia waited for the news and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes. "Faced with the encirclement of a group of hungry wolves, can you overcome this difficulty?"
In the face of such a situation, Atlantis City was powerless.
…
Gallic Dynasty, Vic City.
Henry was indeed Henry. He was one of the three hegemons of the European region in his previous life. He became the first lord in the Mediterranean Sea to promote his territory into a dynasty.
Even so, Henry was as low-key as ever.
"The Great Xia's stance this time seems somewhat unusual." As one of the few lords in the European region who had directly dealt with Ouyang Shuo, Henry did not believe that Emperor Xia, Ouyang Shuo, was a person who would swallow humiliation.
There must be other plans behind the peace of the Great Xia.
"The organization has targeted Great Xia. Isn't this somewhat neglecting the essentials and pursuing trifles?" Henry did not agree with this move of CP because they had a more hidden and more powerful opponent.
"The situation is unpredictable!"
