Chapter 1312 – Globalizing Currency

8th month, 5th day, after being pushed into a corner, Azure Badge finally exploded.

Compared to Silver Hand, Azure Badge’s strength was simply too scattered. Although their influence stretched across the globe, they were unable to form a combined power. Out of their five dynasties, only the Ottoman Dynasty stood out as strong.

They were unlike Silver Hand, whose powers were grouped.

It was not much of a problem before. However, the moment they entered this world war, this weakness was magnified. Even after making a deal with Great Xia, they were unable to turn the tides.

The deals did not solve the root of the problem.

To turn the tides of the European war, Azure Badge would have to take down at least one of the five Alliance Army dynasties to break the balance.

If not, they would be like a trapped beast.

Since they could see that not much time was left, Azure Badge had no choice but to use their strongest trump card.

Basically on the same day, large-scale, chaotic incidents broke out in the House of Tudor, Gaule Dynasty, Spain Dynasty, Caesar Dynasty, and Romanov Dynasty borders.

Officials were assassinated, fires were started, small-scale riots….

Under Azure Badge’s instigation, the secret members hidden within the five dynasties ignored the risk of being exposed and acted with determination to turn the five dynasties into a mess.

This was called fighting behind enemy lines.

Azure Badge paid a heavy price with this move. From now on, they had totally lost their influence on the five dynasties, and all of their secret members were cleared out by the enemy.

Although the price that they paid was huge, the results were evident.

The sudden chaos caused the five dynasties that were focused on the frontlines to panic. The most affect parties were the Spain and Gaule dynasties.

There was no need to mention the Spain Dynasty.

They were already locked in an intense battle with the Egypt army. Now, their back garden had suddenly been set alight, the military was not stable, and their grain line was disturbed. The Egypt army grasped this chance to swiftly push northward.

In the middle of the 8th month, only half of the Spain Dynasty was left. The original Portugal region, apart from a small corner on the north side, had basically completely fallen, what a tragic state.

The second unlucky soul was the Gaule Dynasty.

The Gaule Dynasty was located on the frontlines. After the Egypt army disembarked in Spain, the Ottoman Dynasty had changed its strategy and chose to their main defensive front to be the one with the Gaule Dynasty.

For the remaining two sides, they decided to defend around cities.

On the west side, the Ottoman Dynasty chose a proactive defensive strategy, sometimes using attack as a means of defense. With that, the Gaule Dynasty territories were unavoidably dragged into the flames of war.

Only empty plains remained between the two dynasties.

This chaos was like adding oil to the fire for the Gaule Dynasty.

8th month, 15th day, the Egypt army finally arrived at Madrid.

Madrid was located in the middle of Spain. Although it was not the Capital City of the Spain Dynasty, it was the imperial city of the Spain region and the largest city of the Spain Dynasty.

Once it fell, the north of Spain would be exposed with nothing to shield them.

Casillas finally panicked.

At such a time, he did not care about the big picture. He also ignored the opposition from Henry and the others and ordered Fernando to lead his troops back.

The standoff in Europe was finally broken.

Without the Spain army, it was like an arm of the Alliance Army was broken off, and their chances of victory were down by half.

At this very moment, the Ottoman Dynasty made an unexpected move and sent a 100 thousand men army to cross the straits of England and disembark on the House of Tudor; this made the usually calm William panic too.

With these two new changes, the European battlefield finally turned for the better for Azure Badge.

House of Tudor, Avic Fort.

A frown covered William’s face. Although he maintained his noble aura, he did not exude a sense of energy and strength.

When Annie, who was sitting opposite to him saw that, she asked, “Brother, should we withdraw some troops back from the frontlines to defend? The Ottoman Dynasty army is pillaging our shoreline, and we must deal with it.”

“No!”

Compared to Casillas, William was more rational, “If we do that, the Battle of Europe would be wasted. Organizing another attack would be really difficult.”

“Let it be wasted then.” Annie had a different understanding and said, “Brother, I do not understand why Azure Badge and we have to kill each other till only one survives? We are fighting to our deaths in Europe while Great Xia and the Dawson Dynasty are like fishermen making gains at the side. Don’t you think that is foolish?”

“What do you know!”

William’s face sunk as he replied, “As long as we take down the Ottoman Dynasty and unify Europe, the organization will have two continents, and we will still be the strongest presence in the world.”

“Unify Europe?”

Annie’s face revealed a mocking expression as she said, “Don’t you know what kind of thoughts Caesar and the others have? Even if we take down the Ottoman Dynasty, I dare to bet that they would start fighting amongst themselves.”

When William heard that, his expression was really complicated and hard to read.

In the end, he sighed as he firmly said, “No matter what, we cannot withdraw at such a time. Even if the situation you described occurs, it will be an internal problem of the organization.”

Annie shook her head in disappointment, “Brother, think about it. Before working for the organization, you are first the king of the House of Tudor. That is the root of the family.”

As she said that, she got up and left the room.

Imperial Capital.

Just as Azure Badge started a storm in the European battlefield and showed signs of turning the tide, Old Chen visited Great Xia once more.

He came over to discuss a deal.

Although the Ottoman Dynasty had launched a counterattack on the House of Tudor, it was just a move to announce to the world that, “We have not fallen.”

If the House of Tudor retreated, it would be the best case scenario for them.

Unexpectedly, William was actually so calm and did not even waver. He arranged native troops to fend off the invading army while continuing to send resources into the Gaule Dynasty.

That made things difficult.

The coffers of the Ottoman Dynasty were drying out; they were not willing to continue fighting.

However, they had no choice.

To inject new blood into the Ottoman Dynasty, Azure Badge gathered 40 million gold to make a huge firearm deal.

More than half of the funds came from the Ottoman Dynasty.

Since there was money to be made, Ouyang Shuo had no reason to reject them. He immediately agreed and signed an official agreement. Helping the Ottoman Dynasty was in line with Great Xia’s current strategy.

Apart from firearms, the Ottoman Dynasty also made a 10 million gold war resources order.

Ouyang Shuo swiftly agreed to that too.

Along with the Mediterranean naval route being freed up once more, these war resources could be easily transported from Great Xia mainland to Europe given their ocean transport ability.

These two deals allowed Great Xia to earn another 50 million gold.

Along with the previous orders, over 100 million gold seeped into Great Xia within just a year. Great Xia’s gold reserves reached an unprecedented level.

Ouyang Shuo was not prepared to let this gold flow back into the market. Instead, he turned them into gold bricks and stored them in the Great Xia Bank’s vault to act as a strategic reserve fund.

In the present Great Xia, the Great Xia currency was the main currency used in transactions.

In the future, if the Great Xia currency wanted to go global and become the strongest in the world, they would need to have enough gold reserves.

If not, they would be unable to build up the credibility of the Great Xia currency.
