Chapter 1115 – Everyone Has Ambitions
Another seemingly boring week.
Great Xia’s Battle of Jin proceeded smoothly as expected. The Yue Fei led army had already reached Jin Country’s capital Acheng District. As long as they took down the city, they could basically announce the destruction of Jin.
For this, the Combat Logistics Department especially brought over 300 P1 Type Cannons to assist the frontlines.
Just as Ouyang Shuo had expected, the Great Zhou army was just trying to show off and did not dare to take that step. They did not have the courage to go on an all-out war against Great Xia.
Outside Acheng District commander tent.
Yue Fei was dressed in martial attire. Looking out at the giant city, his expression was really complicated as he muttered, “I did not expect that I’ll have the chance to lead China to wipe out Jin. The heavens bless China!”
He had been looking forward to this battle for a long time.
…
The Battle of Laoag on the south had entered a stalemate.
After the sudden explosion from the Luzon camp, seeing that it was not effective, their morale was lost, and they lacked the strength to persist. Their attacks started to wane, and they had no way to cause a physical threat to Great Xia.
Seeing that, Dragon Legion Corps commander Baiqi suddenly moved over the 2nd legion from Hanoi and led both them and the 1st legion to counterattack.
This was exactly when the Luzon army were at their weakest. Being charged at like that by Great Xia, they could not even hold the defensive line. In just half a day, Great Xia charged passed it, and their formations collapsed.
The sudden collapse caused their morale to drop to their historical low.
Baiqi grasped this chance and chased for the win, trying to expand his gains. The two legions of the Dragon Legion Corps were like two dragons, pouncing south. In a short three days, they occupied a prefecture worth of land.
In just one battle, they had obtained 50 thousand prisoners. These prisoners did not stay in Laoag. Instead, they were sent over to Morocco to be reorganized.
A day ago, Ouyang Shuo had sent out the order to promote the Morocco Formation to the West Africa legion corps. The original Lieutenant General Shi Dakai would be promoted to marshal, obtaining the Grade 2 east conquering general rank.
Similar to the Beijiang and Hanoi legion corps, the West Africa Legion corps was also a border defense legion corps.
With this batch of prisoners along with the original 100 thousand troops in Morocco, they could barely form two legions. There was still a large gap from reaching five full legions.
Luckily, when the Battle of Jin ends, there would be another large batch of prisoners awaiting organization.
After taking down a prefecture and seeking instructions from the Imperial Court, Baiqi moved the 3rd and 4th legions over to form a new defensive line.
The Battle of Luzon was slowly getting onto the right track.
Someone with a keen eye would know that the moment Luzon lost a prefecture, an all-out country war was about to begin.
…
Apart from the north and south, the east and west had new developments.
On the west, the Indian Ocean Squadron led by Yanhuo Yaonie had already prepared their resources and were slowly surrounding Maldives. Once the order was given, they could tear it to shreds.
During this period, the Peacock Dynasty and Java seemed to notice what the Indian Ocean Squadron was doing and instinctively increased the patrol around their ocean region.
Peacock Dynasty was worried that Great Xia wanted to take down Sri Lanka. Java, on the other hand, was worried that after Luzon was taken down, the Great Xia squadron would try to take down a sentry base for attacking Java.
How would they know that Great Xia was not aiming for them?
On the contrary, them consolidating their defensive lines made it much easier for the Indian Ocean Squadron.
On the east, the merchant squad escorted by the Yashan Squadron smoothly arrived in Hawaii. They acted like they were resting up, but in truth, they were unloading resources and making the final preparations to surrounding and destroying Dawson Dynasty’s Free Squadron.
The Free Squadron only had two divisions in Hawaii. There were two in charge of patrolling and did not remain there at every moment. The last one was housed on the west coast of the Dawson Dynasty.
Great Xia’s goal was to totally destroy thetwo2 divisions in Hawaii while also destroying the two patrolling ones.
At that point, they could totally paralyze the Free Squadron.
…
Gaia 5th year, 10th month, 7th day, Morocco Province.
Just as Great Xia was about to bare its fangs, the deadline to reply to TWP was reached.
Morocco Provincial Governor Mulan Yue followed Ouyang Shuo’s instructions and unwillingly announced that Great Xia was opening up the Straits of Gibraltar.
The moment the news spread out, the Mediterranean was in a sea of joy.
…
Rome region, Caesar City.
Caesar was enjoying a cup of red wine as he mockingly said, “Great Xia is only a paper tiger. Facing a huge beast like TWP, it can only bow its head.”
“Since they announced the opening up of the Gibraltar Straits, the Gulf of Aden would be next!” Caesar was a shameless person. Chasing Great Xia out of the Mediterranean was his final goal in regard to this.
“The European continent does not need an anomaly like Great Xia.”
Caesar was filled with confidence.
…
Spain, Tortosa City.
A day ago, Tortosa City had wiped out their final opponent in the region – Malaga City. They had unified the entire region. The next step would be to establish a dynasty and form a dynasty that met the status of Spain.
Seeing Great Xia accept its fate and letting go of Gibraltar Straits, Casillas immediately had other thoughts, “Gibraltar Port was seized by them from the Spanish. For them to open up the port does not seem enough. It’s best if they return it.”
If he could take back Gibraltar Port, it would be a great gain for Tortosa City.
“Hehe, I think I should discuss with Jack!” Casillas looked out in the distance. He could foresee the great future of his territory, and a smile could not help but appear at the corner of his mouth.
“Having an organization is so good!”
…
Atlantis.
When Kalia got the news, worry flashed in her eyes, “Facing a pack of hungry wolves, can you tide past this hardship?”
Facing such a situation, Atlantis City wanted to help, but they could not.
…
Gaule Dynasty, Vic City
As expected from Henry, this person who was one of the three giants in Europe in the last life. His territory was the first European territory to upgrade to a dynasty.
Even so, he was still as low profile as usual.
“For Great Xia to do that seems really unusual.” As one of the few Lords that had contacted Ouyang Shuo, he did not believe that the Xia King would take this lying down.
The calm behind Great Xia had to have its reason.
“Is the organization attending to trifles and neglecting the essentials by attacking Great Xia?” Henry did not agree with the TWP’s action. That was because they had a more hidden and stronger foe.
“What an unpredictable situation!”
