Chapter 1140: Enemies and Friends

The eight dynasties that sent envoys to He had eight kinds of thoughts.

The most insincere is the Shu Han Dynasty, after the envoys submitted their credentials, they simply left and left, and the two sides were already on the same footing, and there was really nothing to perform.

The most sincere was the Sui Dynasty, where the envoy group was personally led by the crown prince Yang Yong, who not only brought the national letter, but also brought the Kyushu Ding, which was unconditionally presented to Great Xia.

Emperor Wen of Sui's gesture of favor is already very obvious.

Ouyang Shuo smiled, since the Sui Dynasty was so sincere, as long as they could accept being an idle king with a different surname in Great Xia, Ouyang Shuo didn't want to wield the butcher's knife and kill them all.

It's just that the dispute between Yang Yong and Yang Guang doesn't know how it will end.

The most difficult to guess is the Qing Dynasty, it stands to reason that the Qing Dynasty is also a sworn enemy of Great Xia, but the envoys behave like friends of Great Xia, which is terrifying.

However, the envoys never mentioned the matter of Kyushu Ding, which made people foggy.

The most refreshing were the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, and both envoys said that as long as Great Xia promised not to summon their forbidden army, they would be willing to sacrifice the Kyushu Ding.

The two dynasties are located in the territory of the Great Zhou, as the so-called "enemy of the enemy is a friend", whether it is Zhao Kuangyin of the Song Dynasty or Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty, they do not want to have a grudge against the Great Xia.

In addition, there is the incense of the battle map, and the cooperation is logical.

Zhao Kuangyin and Zhu Yuanzhang were afraid that when they were dealing with the Great Zhou Dynasty, Ouyang Shuo suddenly used the supreme privilege to summon 100,000 forbidden troops, which would make people's heads big.

In this regard, Ouyang Shuo naturally agreed readily.

The envoys of Daqin and Datang also said that they could sacrifice Kyushu Ding if certain conditions were met, and as for the specific conditions, the two sides had to send delegations for further consultation.

Either way, there is hope.

However, the Han Dynasty who is dominant in the Central Plains never mentions the matter of Kyushu Ding.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set the Central Plains, there were soldiers and land, and he was unwilling to compromise easily, so naturally he did not have the intention of dedicating Kyushu Ding.

Ouyang Shuo just smiled and didn't say anything at the time.

With the departure of the envoys one by one, although the whole task has made great progress, it is still in the clouds, and the main crux is concentrated in the Qing Dynasty and the Han Dynasty.

If it is really a last resort, Ouyang Shuo can only use thunderbolt means.

…………

As soon as the envoys of the eight dynasties left, the phoenix prisoner sent an envoy to congratulate him, although the two dynasties changed from allies to respectful and subordinate relations, but this did not affect the iron-blooded friendship between the two.

Then, the Tubo Dynasty and the Western Xia Kingdom also sent envoys to congratulate them.

The envoys of the two dynasties are very interesting, the meaning of the Tubo Dynasty is to hope to marry a princess of Bactria in order to become friendly for generations; Western Xia was willing to marry a princess into the Great Xia royal family.

Harmony, the only magic weapon of ancient alliances.

It's a pity that someone sat in a well and watched the sky and misjudged the situation in the wilderness.

The envoys of the Tubo Dynasty completely angered Ouyang Shuo, although he did not get angry on the spot, when he met with the minister in private, he showed no mercy, "Some people are afraid that they haven't woken up yet, do they really regard Daxia as the Tang Dynasty in the weak period?!" It's time to wake them up. ”

Ouyang Shuo's words were almost a prelude to Great Xia's imminent declaration of war on Tibet. It was precisely because of the need for secrecy before the war that Ouyang Shuo held back his anger and did not attack on the spot when he met with the envoys.

The Tubo Dynasty was smart this time, but it was mistaken by being smart.

The envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty arrived on the last day of the deadline, and after reluctantly submitting their credentials, they left in a hurry.

In the end, Emperor Chen still didn't have the courage to start a war with Great Xia and refused to come.

Mongolia and the Western Turkic Khanate, before the deadline, still did not send an envoy group, and the meaning of rebelliousness has been clearly revealed. Perhaps in the eyes of Genghis Khan, no one is above him.

The first challenger to the Supreme Throne has emerged.

It is now the end of December, and the northern land has entered a cold winter again, and it is impossible to start a war with the Mongols. Everything will have to wait until after the beginning of spring next year.

…………

Just when Ouyang Shuo received the envoys of the various dynasties, the envoys sent by Great Xia to the Indian Empire finally returned to Shanhai City before New Year's Day and brought the national letter of the Indian Empire.

The two dynasties formally formed an alliance.

This mission not only heralded the official opening of the South American trade route, but also responded positively to the appeal of Bactria to occupy a port base on the South American continent.

When the time is right, the two sides will cooperate in South America once and take a small country.

At this point, before the arrival of the sixth year of Gaia, in response to the emergence of TP, all the deployments made by Ouyang Shuo before have landed one by one, stabilizing the maritime trade of Great Xia.

Although in the Mediterranean and Atlantic, in the face of the encirclement of several core members of the TP, there are still many challenges in Daxia, but fortunately, it has finally taken the first step to confront the TP head-on.

…………

December 27, Shanhai City.

While Ouyang Shuo was busy receiving the envoys of the major forces, the statistical work of the Battle of Luzon had also come to an end. To this end, Ouyang Shuo convened a military meeting again to discuss the plan for the disposal of prisoners of war.

According to statistics, in this battle, the Great Xia army lost a total of nearly 200,000 people, and the Hanoi army alone lost more than 60,000 people. In order to successfully lure the enemy army out of the city of Iligan, the Hanoi army did pay a huge price.

In addition, the major casualties were basically in the first battle of Manila.

It is impossible for a million-strong army to bulldoze the enemy's five lines of defense without paying a certain price.

The post-war pension expenses alone were astronomical.

Fortunately, after taking Australia and Luzon one after another, tens of millions of gold coins and a large number of weapons and equipment were looted in the treasury of the two royal cities alone, which could basically fill this hole.

If the consumption of grain and grass materials is included, as well as the reconstruction support for the Australian provinces and Luzon provinces, only in terms of money, the imperial treasury will be at least 4 million gold coins.

Of course, the number of prisoners of war in this battle was also very staggering.

The Australian battlefield, including the surprise attack on the Melbourne coalition forces and the confrontation with the Forbidden Army in the Royal City of Canberra, combined the two major battles, which combined to capture a total of 230,000 prisoners of war.

In the first battle of Mindanao, the enemy dispatched 450,000 allied troops, and in addition to the war dead, the remaining 320,000 surrendered and became prisoners of war.

Then there was the toughest battle in Manila.

The 800,000 forbidden troops in Luzon, together with the 100,000 territorial army, except for the dead, the remaining 510,000 people all surrendered and became prisoners of war in Bactria.

Combined, the three add up to 1.06 million people.

After deducting the replenishment of battle losses and excluding the wounded and unqualified soldiers, there are still 750,000 prisoners of war waiting for reorganization, and there is still a slight surplus in the two group armies.

How to reorganize this huge army of prisoners of war became the most important thing in the middle age of the Great Xia Army.
