March 5, Jingshi.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Ouyang Shuo was in the imperial study and summoned Emperor Chen, who had just returned from Europe.

During this trip to Europe, Emperor Chen assisted the empire while distracting himself, and established a fragile dialogue mechanism with the six major European dynasties, finally breaking the barriers between them.

The most positive response was the Germanic dynasty, which had little intersection with Bactria before.

Of course, Ouyang Shuo understands the reason, with the start of the North American War, the Silver Hand and the Blue Badge have officially torn their faces, and the situation of the five major dynasties in the Silver Hand camp and the encirclement and suppression of the Germanic Dynasty has gradually become clear.

This fateful war could break out at any moment.

The Germanic dynasties, which were at a disadvantage, naturally wanted to seek new allies, and looking at the whole world, the only one who had the ability to intervene in the European battlefield was Great Xia.

Faced with the demands of the Germanic dynasty, Ouyang Shuo was noncommittal.

Before the blue badge was priced enough, Ouyang Shuo was tantamount to intervening in the European battlefield.

"Pack up and visit the Maple Leaf Dynasty and the Mayan Dynasty." Ouyang Shuo said.

Emperor Chen was puzzled, "Maple Leaf Dynasty? ”

The Maple Leaf Dynasty is facing an invasion of the Dawson Dynasty, and it is only a matter of time before it falls, so what is the point of visiting the Maple Leaf Dynasty at this time? It's hard to do it, and it is impossible to send troops to aid the Maple Leaf Dynasty.

"Not bad. Tell the Maple Leaf Dynasty that as long as they offer a starting price, flintlock pistols and the latest artillery, Great Xia can sell them, and the quantity is enough. Ouyang Shuo said leisurely.

As thermal weapons gradually became the protagonist in warfare, the industrial base of the dynasty often became one of the key factors in battlefield wrestling.

After all, flintlock pistols and artillery, including ammunition, are consumables.

Without a strong industrial base, it is difficult to manufacture a sufficient number of guns and ammunition in a short period of time. The Maple Leaf Dynasty has too little population, and in this regard, it is obviously not comparable to the Dawson Dynasty.

Once the battlefield enters a stalemate, the Maple Leaf Dynasty is likely to be unable to resist due to the lack of succession.

But Bactria is different.

As one of the first dynasties in the world to start industrialization, it has a large land and abundant talent reserves, and flintlock pistols and artillery have been streamlined production.

On the basis of satisfying its own needs, Daxia still has the spare power to sell guns and ammunition to the outside world.

On the other hand, the sale of thermal weapons to foreign countries will not only make a lot of war profits, but also promote the industrialization of a new batch of cities, such as Shencheng and Zhenhaicheng, thus forming a virtuous circle.

It is equivalent to saying that Great Xia is using other people's money to develop its own city, killing two birds with one stone.

Such a scene is a bit similar to the United States during World War II, because the homeland is far away from the main battlefield, the country is at full speed, increasing investment in the military industry, and has become the largest creditor of European countries.

After the war, the United States also became the most industrialized country.

The current Great Xia, the homeland is peaceful, and there are no great enemies around, how similar it is to the United States in history.

This time, Ouyang Shuo wants to be the big winner behind the world war.

In addition to grand strategic considerations, selling thermal weapons to the Maple Leaf Dynasty and the Mayan Dynasty and trapping the Dawson Dynasty in the North American battlefield is also in line with the interests of Great Xia and is conducive to the global layout of Great Xia.

After listening to this, Di Chen was silent for a long time.

Only then did he know how big a gap there was between the two in terms of strategic vision.

Some people are born leaders with lofty vision, not to say that they are born in a family and receive elite education since childhood, and they will definitely be able to stand at the top.

Elite education only gives a relatively higher starting point, not an end.

At this time, Ouyang Shuo has already stood at the end of the line, and looking back, whether it is the elite of the family or the heroes of the common people, for Ouyang Shuo, there is actually no difference.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will leave tomorrow to facilitate this matter as soon as possible."

Emperor Chen completely put away his thoughts on being on a par with Ouyang Shuo, and began to serve the empire in a down-to-earth manner.

Ouyang Shuo just smiled.

…………

North America is full of gunsmoke, Europe is changing, and the Asian continent is not calm.

Tianzhu District.

A few years ago, the Ashoka Dynasty was defeated and retreated in the face of the joint attack of the Mauryan Dynasty and the Gupta Dynasty due to the loss of troops on the battlefield of Tibet.

After the onset of winter, the fighting ceased for a while, giving the Ashoka Empire a rare respite.

After the beginning of spring, the civil war in Tianzhu resumed.

This time, both the Mauryan Dynasty and the Gupta Dynasty made every effort to fight a battle, completely defeat the Ashoka Dynasty, and redivide the Tianzhu power structure.

The only thing that was beneficial to the Ashoka Dynasty was that the Ganges Plain, with the royal city of Delhi as the center and radiating to the surrounding area, was the richest land in Tianzhu and the birthplace of the Ganges civilization.

The Ashoka Dynasty, which had a favorable geographical location, had a high population density and abundant grain and grass.

This is the biggest hole card that Ashoka can play against the two major dynasties.

Even so, in the absence of other variables, in the face of the repeated onslaught of the two major dynasties, the fall of the Ashoka Dynasty is estimated to be a matter of time.

…………

And then there's the Persian Empire.

After the fall of the Mongol Empire, Ogedei fled to Persia with the rest of his army, and barely survived using the Persian cities he had captured as a stronghold.

Throughout the winter, the Persian Empire seemed indifferent to this.

After the beginning of spring, this silent empire finally showed its minions and sent a large army to the east, under the banner of "recovering lost territory", preparing to exterminate the Ögetai tribe and recover the city conquered by the Mongols.

Ironically, when the Mongols went west, they played the same banner.

As soon as the news came out, the Honglu Temple of Great Xia immediately sent an envoy to Persia, and said righteously: "The Mongol Empire has surrendered to Great Xia, and the city occupied by Mongolia, whether it is within or outside the country, according to legal principles, should be the city of Great Xia." Therefore, the thirteen cities in Persia were, in fact, the territory of Bactria . ”

"How to deal with the Wokotai Department is an internal affair of Great Xia, and I ask your country not to interfere without authorization, otherwise, it will be a provocation to Great Xia."

As soon as these words came out, it was a little difficult for the Persian Empire.

Send troops, they are worried that this will provoke Great Xia, if Great Xia also intervenes in this battle, Persia may not be able to please it, maybe, they will have to "lose their wives and break their troops", and they will be bloody in vain.

Once you have a bad relationship with Great Xia, the consequences will be unimaginable.

But if they stopped the infantry because of Daxia's warning, it would not only damage the prestige of the Persian Empire, but also ask them to give up the "fat meat" they had in hand, which would be a little unwilling.

And after all, these cities were originally theirs, and isn't it natural to take them back at this time? How did it turn out to be interference in the internal affairs of Great Xia.

The Persian Empire was also very dissatisfied with the domineering words and deeds of Great Xia, and the voices of the main battle came and went.

Of course, there are not a few people who are the main peacemakers.

If this can be exchanged for peace with Bactria is also a great temptation for the Persian Empire.

Just as the Persian Empire was wavering, things changed.
