The Arab Empire, known as an army of 1.5 million.

This is, of course, just a number.

According to the information given from the front, the Arab imperial army was not only poorly equipped, but also lacked training, lax discipline, and had no actual combat experience, making it a veritable weak brigade.

Ouyang Shuo ordered that 500,000 people be directly laid off and decommissioned to supplement the labor gap in the Arab region. Then 500,000 people were transferred to the railway army system to help the construction of the imperial railway.

The 500,000 men who were the most warlike were temporarily reorganized into the First Army and the Second Army of West Asia.

The whole process is expected to take one to two months.

At the same time, after the West Asian Army was stationed in the Arab Empire, the First and Second South Asian armies would be withdrawn from the territory of the Arab Empire.

The new garrison was chosen on the border of the Caesar dynasty.

In addition to the three regular group armies in the West Asia theater, there are also four temporary group armies, with a total strength of 1.75 million.

This is a rather staggering military force.

If Great Xia really wants to attack the Caesar Dynasty at any cost, then the other party will definitely not be able to bear it.

The situation in Europe seems to have become delicate.

…………

The surrender of the Arab Empire to Bactria triggered a violent shock in the global situation.

Globally, an unprecedented reshuffle was staged.

On 16 May, the day after the surrender of the Arab Empire, the war between the Germanic and Romanov dynasties ceased immediately.

Both sides stated that they would peacefully resolve the border dispute in the form of negotiations.

Obviously, the European bigwigs have realized that compared to the internal competition, on their periphery, Great Xia is already a behemoth, eyeing the European continent.

At this moment, if they still set off infighting, it would be even if they wanted to make Da Xia laugh off his big teeth.

The ceasefire was only the beginning of the internal integration of the European dynasties.

In particular, the number one of the Silver Hand, that is, the joint meeting initiated by Grandpa Jack, sounded the alarm for the dynasties.

The parties began to test each other and compromise.

Curiously, for some reason, the joint meeting did not reach a substantive framework for cooperation, and the two parties only expressed their concerns, and did not jointly form a global empire with the Dawson dynasty at the core, as proposed by One, to counter the continued expansion of Bactria.

Kings such as Caesar were not fools.

In the two-year European melee, the Silver Hand camp has gained the upper hand from the beginning to the current defeat, although there is the interference of Great Xia, the inaction of the Dawson Dynasty is also a point that cannot be ignored.

As the pillar of the Silver Hand, the Dawson Dynasty, which hangs alone outside the continents of Asia, Europe and Africa, has never provided any substantial help to the European battlefield from beginning to end.

On the contrary, the Dawson dynasty did not hesitate to invest in efforts to unify North America.

In Caesar's words, "The facts are already in front of you, and it is clear that Dawson's own interests are more important to Dawson than to the overall interests of the organization." ”

In this case, if the Dawson Dynasty stands up again and advocates the formation of a global empire with the Dawson Dynasty as the core, who will respond?

No one is a fool!

There is a pay, there will be a return.

The Dawson Dynasty did not shoulder the corresponding responsibility, but wanted to reap the maximum benefits, how could it be.

It was Manstein's proposal that impressed Caesar and Pushkin.

After the joint meeting, the three remaining kings of the European continent met and held a secret meeting to decide the future of Europe.

The slogan shouted: "Europe, Europe for Europeans!" ”

In other words, they will unite and kick the discredited Dawson Dynasty and start anew to create a new European continent.

It's very clever to do.

…………

On May 20, the tenth year of Gaia, a piece of news detonated the world.

The Germanic, Romanov and Caesar dynasties issued a joint declaration to unite the three dynasties to form a super-dynasty, the Europa Empire.

King Manstein of the Germanic dynasty was inaugurated as Emperor of the Europa Empire. Caesar and Pushkin, the two former kings, became the two pillars of the empire as princes.

As soon as the Europa Empire was founded, it was promoted to the third dynasty in the world, dominating the European continent.

Then, on May 21, the Bantu dynasty in Africa announced its voluntary annexation to the Europa Empire. The former king of Bantu also became the third prince of the Europa Empire.

Obviously, because it was established in a hurry and the internal interests have not been completely straightened out, the operating mechanism of the Europa Empire is very similar to that of the collapsed Great Zhou Dynasty, which is a bit of a shadow of the feudal system.

This is a surprising fit with the bloodline of European history.

In this way, the Europa Empire became a super empire across Europe, Asia and Africa in one fell swoop, and its overall strength surpassed the Dawson Dynasty in one fell swoop, becoming the second empire in the world after Great Xia.

Not only that, but the nascent Europa Empire is also a new dynasty that transcends the boundaries between the Silver Hand and the Blue Emblem, and is a great fusion of the members of both sides.

The traditional silver hand and the blue badge are dying away and will eventually disappear; In its place, there is a new faction territory with dynasties as a module.

The global pattern ushered in a super reshuffle, showing a new pattern of one super and two strong.

The Great Xia Empire naturally dominates the world, and is a veritable global hegemon; The Europa Empire and the Dawson Dynasty dominated Europe and North America respectively.

The Night Empire is in a safe corner, and there is no room for expansion.

As for the Indian Empire, under the current global situation, there is only a remnant of survival, and whether it can survive, or how long it can last, depends entirely on the attitude of Great Xia.

Globally, the only disputed territory appears to be limited to Central Africa.

The Bactria Empire, the Europa Empire, and the Dawson Dynasty all had a large number of territories in Africa, and the Congo region of Central Africa was the only disputed place, which could be regarded as a buffer zone between the three empires.

I am afraid that the future battle will be even more treacherous.

…………

In the blink of an eye, it was June.

At about 10 a.m. on June 3, Starfleet successfully arrived in the outer space of the resource satellite.

This means that the time of separation has come.

Ouyang Shuo did not make a sensational farewell speech, nor did he have any grand farewell ceremony, at noon that day, he quietly commanded the Daxia ship and the Huaxia ship, broke away from the large army, and sailed towards the unknown journey.

Two warships disappear into the vast space as players around the world watch.

A new page has been opened in the history of mankind.

…………

After setting sail, the members of the pioneer team, including Ouyang Shuo, rarely appeared in the game world, and they spent all day on the starship, discussing and formulating specific pioneer plans.

Unavoidably.

After the pioneer team set out, the game world seemed to have become deserted, and the waves were gone.

This is, of course, just an illusion.

On the road to hegemony, the struggle never ends.

In September of the tenth year of Gaia, after four months of combing, Daxia's rectification of West Asia officially came to an end. The wounds of war have been gradually healed.

With the influx of merchants, the West Asian Protectorate ushered in unprecedented prosperity.

The exploitation of oil and gas resources in the Persian Gulf has been included in the planning of the empire, and will surely become a new engine for the empire's industrialization and bring the empire to a new height.

After stabilizing West Asia, the complete opening of the Asian-European-African channel has been put on the highest agenda of the empire. The Empire will spend a lot of money and spend two to three years to complete this miracle of land transportation.

The six fleets of the empire have all completed the rearmament, and firmly control the global sea supremacy.

The volume of maritime trade is breaking records every day.

As the Bactria currency becomes the global currency, it is increasingly playing the role of the maker of global trade rules and the main engine of the global economy.

In particular, Huaxia District is the center of the global economy.

Daxia Bank is steadily moving forward with the goal of the World Bank in North Korea and China.

The industrialization of the coastal cities is advancing by leaps and bounds, science and technology are changing with each passing day, and all kinds of products are constantly pouring out, and the Great Xia Empire is transforming from an agricultural empire to an industrial empire.

The Asia-Europe-Africa Railway, which is under construction, will connect the entire Asian, Eurasian and African continents into one, completely opening up the Silk Road on one road.

Under such a combination of land and sea, the distance between the empire mainland and overseas will become shorter and shorter.

In contrast, the Dawson Dynasty, which monopolized North America, had neither the sea control in the previous life, nor overseas allies or key overseas territories, and even basic foreign trade had to depend on the face of Great Xia.

Based on this, the Dawson Dynasty's global influence is fading.

If this trend continues, one day, the Dawson Dynasty will follow the same path as the Night Empire, gradually isolated, and disconnected from the mainstream of the world.

In the future, the Asian, Eurasian and African continental plates will be the center of the world.

Under the great global prosperity, the shadow of war has always lingered.

On the first of September, almost without warning, the Bactria Empire suddenly declared war on the Europa Empire.

As soon as the news came out, the world was shocked.

A war between the First and Second Empires would be tantamount to a world war.

Ordinary people are at a loss and worried about it.

The Great Xia Army is indeed in action.

In North Asia, the Great Xia Fengxiang Army and the Northern Xinjiang Army, under the command of Li Mu, the commander of the theater of operations, brazenly crossed the northern border and entered the Siberian region.

In the Middle East, the First and Second Armies of South Asia, the First and Second Armies of West Asia, and even the Flying Bear Army, which is part of the West Asian theater of operations, are moving to the borders of Europe.

Depending on the situation, a great storm is coming towards the newly formed Europa Empire.

Not only that, on the African continent, the North African Army, which is part of the African theater, frequently puts pressure on the West African region of the Europa Empire and puts on an offensive posture.

In Europe, the Western European Army and the Northern European Army, which were subordinate to the Gang Duo Jie Du Embassy, were also actively preparing for war.

At sea, the Mediterranean Fleet and the Atlantic Fleet intensified their patrols in key shipping lanes, intending to blockade the entire Europa Empire's access to the sea.

The war situation is on the verge of breaking out.

This made the nascent Europa empire nervous.

After four months of running-in, although the Europa Empire has passed the most dangerous run-in period, its internal affairs have still not been completely straightened out.

After all, it is the fusion of the two camps, and it is not easy to talk about it.

Especially for the Germanic people in the central region, the Spaniards, Gauls, Caesars, and Romanovs were their enemies, and they were burdened with a sea of blood and hatred.

You must know that the two-year war has directly reduced the Germanic people by two percent.

In the face of the all-out attack of Great Xia, the Europa Empire really did not have enough confidence to dare to go to war and drag the entire empire into the quagmire of war.

As for the Dawson Dynasty, they would like to watch the play on the sidelines.

The formation of the Europa Empire is equivalent to completely excluding the Dawson Dynasty from the European system, which makes Jack very hurt, and he is even more angry than being overpowered by Great Xia.

At this time, it would be good for Jack not to step on it, where would he lend a helping hand.

Once the two empires start a full-scale war, it will not be solved in a day or two, as short as a year or two, and as long as it will last for several years.

This is a great opportunity for the re-emergence of the Dawson Dynasty.

Jack couldn't understand why Great Xia was hot-headed, and chose this time to suddenly start a war against the Europa Empire, "It's still young, impulsive." ”

To the regent of Great Xia, Jack not only underestimated it.

There is gossip that the reason why Great Xia declared war on the Europa Empire at this time was precisely the idea of this regent, and the purpose was to truly establish his authority in Great Xia through an epic battle.

…………

On September 5, the Europa Empire, a little panicked, sent an envoy headed by Prince Caesar to rush to Beijing to try to mediate the war dispute between the two sides.

They were also worried that the regent of Great Xia was young and vigorous, and he really did not hesitate to start an all-out war.

Therefore, the Europa Empire hoped that negotiations would end the war.

At the beginning, Da Xia's attitude was very tough, putting on a posture of never negotiating and only seeing the truth on the battlefield, which made Caesar and the others frightened and restless in the Jingshi Sifang Pavilion.

In order to alleviate the conflict, Caesar thought of one person, that is, the former president of the Federation and the current scholar of the Elder Seal University of the Great Xia Empire, and asked him to mediate on his behalf.

Chen Lao is the core advisor of the regent, and he can still speak.

Chen Lao, who cared about the old feelings, couldn't wipe off his face, and acted as a lobbyist again, and finally moved the regent of Great Xia and reluctantly agreed to start negotiations between the two sides.

Even so, the Great Xia side was aggressive.

Zhang Yi, the secretary of the Honglu Temple in Great Xia, on behalf of the imperial court, proposed two conditions for the envoys of the Europa Empire to strike the war - the cession of Siberia and West Africa.

When Caesar heard this, his brows tightened, and Daxia was really a lion's mouth.

In terms of territorial area alone, the two major regions that Bactria demanded to cede occupied more than half of the territory of the Europa Empire. Siberia alone is larger than the entire European continent.

Of course, the Siberian region is vast and sparsely populated, and its strategic value is much greater than its actual value.

One point that cannot be ignored is that the oil and gas resources in Siberia are the core engine supporting the industrialization of the Europa Empire, and it is also the most difficult point of the Europa Empire.

As for the West African region, it is an important support node of the Europa Empire in Africa.

Once West Africa is ceded, the influence of the Europa Empire in Africa will inevitably decline sharply, forming a pattern of Bactria being the dominant family, and I am afraid that even South Africa will not be able to keep it in the future.

In other words, no region was ceded to the Europa Empire.

Caesar, who could not be the Lord, could only consult the empire.

In the following week, the delegations of the two sides began to engage in arduous negotiations, and on the other side, the Great Xia army did not stop attacking and was aggressive on the battlefield.

In North Asia, the Fengxiang army advanced all the way to the Ural Mountains.

The Ural Mountains are the dividing line between Asia and Europe, between the Eastern European Plain and the Siberian Plain. The intention of the Fengxiang army to advance into the Ural Mountains and cut off the Siberian region is already very obvious.

On the contrary, due to the previous European war, during the Romanov Dynasty, in order to attack the Germanic Dynasty, the Romanov army was concentrated in the Eastern European Plain, and the garrison in Siberia was almost zero.

Sporadic garrisons, still after the map is zeroed.

Before that, ten times the size of Siberia, not to mention the garrison, communications was a big problem.

This gave the Great Xia Army a chance.

The advance of the Great Xia Army made the Europa Empire fall into greater passivity.

On 15 September, the First Army and the Second Army of Bactria followed the advance into the former Caesar region of the Europa Empire and directly attacked the hinterland of the Europa Empire.

The First Army and the Second Army of West Asia are also gearing up on the border.

Depending on the situation, Daxia will not achieve its goal, and he will not give up.

For a time, the Europa Empire was in the midst of an unprecedented crisis.

At a critical juncture, after a thorough assessment of the war, the Europa Empire finally relented and was willing to cede Siberia in exchange for a lasting peace.

Manstein was also sharp-eyed and knew that the real purpose of Bactria was to take over Siberia and truly unify Asia.

As for the West African region, it is nothing more than an appendage added by Bactria to increase its bargaining chips.

If you really want to be interested in West Africa, as early as last year, Great Xia could take advantage of the chaos in Europe and send troops to take it on its own, so how could it wait until now.

Sure enough, Bactria agreed to the terms of the Europa Empire.

On October 1, the two sides formally signed the Treaty of Urals, in which the Europa Empire ceded the entire Siberian region on the condition that it would not use force against the Europa Empire for five years.

The moment the treaty comes into force, it means that Asia, Europe and Africa will usher in a long period of peace.

In the next five years, economic and trade cooperation and people-to-people exchanges will replace war as the mainstream of Asia, Europe and Africa, and even the entire game world.

The peace that people all over the world have been waiting for has finally truly arrived.

As long as Great Xia and the Europa Empire can maintain their strength and do not take the initiative to start a major war, it is impossible for the Dawson Dynasty, the Night Empire, and the Indian Empire to have any thoughts.

Jack, who got the news, was devastated.

Only then did he realize that he really underestimated the regent of Great Xia.

From beginning to end, Daxia's performance, in order to take Siberia and unify Asia, did not mean to set off a full-scale war at all, which made Jack White happy.

The compromise and interaction between the Europa Empire and Bactria showed that the global dominance was firmly held by the two empires.

The marginalization of the Dawson dynasty is becoming clearer day by day.

Jack was still lost, but someone was scared in his heart, and that person was Keisuke Honda, the king of the Night Empire, who sent an envoy to Bactria the day after learning of the signing of the Ural Treaty.

Keisuke Honda said that the Night Empire is willing to continue its friendship with Great Xia, and at the same time obediently offer the Hawaiian Islands that he had previously seized to show his sincerity.

In this way, Hawaii County returned to the embrace of Great Xia in such a dramatic way.

…………

On October 5, the regent of Bactria issued a series of decrees making arrangements for the Siberian region.

The imperial decree established the entire Siberian region as the Northern Asian Metropolitan Protectorate, which consisted of the provinces of Western Siberia, Central Siberia and Eastern Siberia.

The Northern Xinjiang Protectorate was abolished, and the Northern Yuan Province and the Liaojin Province were placed under the direct jurisdiction of the imperial court.

The relevant personnel of the Northern Xinjiang Metropolitan Protectorate were transferred to the Northern Asian Metropolitan Protectorate as a whole. The former protector of the northern frontier continued to serve as the protector of the capital of North Asia; Shi Weiyu, the former governor of the Northern Xinjiang Prefecture, also continued to serve as the governor of the Northern Asian Prefecture.

The North Asian Theater was naturally transferred to the North Asian Metropolitan Protection Zone.

At the same time, the Privy Council also drew up a disarmament plan to gradually reduce or transfer the two major armies in South Asia and the two major armies in West Asia over the next two years, depending on the development of the situation.

Of course, disarmament is disarmament, and the management of the reserve force will never be slackened.

With the military foundation of Great Xia, if a world war really breaks out, more than 5 million reserve troops with combat experience can be re-recruited in a short period of time.

This is also one of the foundations for maintaining the rule of Bactria .

With the rapid advancement of industrialization, the upgrading of weapons and equipment is also changing with each passing day, and the birth of new weapons means that the form of war is also gradually changing.

The number of troops will no longer be the main factor in determining military strength.

That's of course an afterthought.

…………

The significance of taking Siberia for Bactria was not only to unify Asia geographically, but also to add a vast overseas territory.

The greater significance lies in obtaining another oil and gas resource.

So far, more than 70% of the world's oil and gas resources are in the hands of Daxia, giving Daxia the right to set oil and gas prices.

It also adds another important bargaining chip to the globalization of the Great Xia coin.

With the advancement of globalization, in the future, the Great Xia coin will gradually decouple from gold and turn to oil known as black gold.

At this point, Daxia has completed its strategic deployment ahead of schedule.

In addition, the establishment of the North Asian Metropolitan Protection Area is equivalent to sweeping away another hidden border danger in Bactria, and there is such a natural danger as the Ural Mountains in the north, which can basically be done with peace of mind.

Another point is that after taking the Siberian region, the Bactrian Navy can also take advantage of the situation to control the Bering Strait, and then enter the Arctic Ocean to further strengthen its sea supremacy.

In the future, Daxia is also preparing to build the Arctic Ocean Fleet to strengthen the control of the Arctic Ocean.

Through the Arctic Ocean, Great Xia can also form an interconnection with the Gangduo Jiedu Envoy, forming a huge encirclement of the Europa Empire from a large geographical position.

The strategic significance is extraordinary.

If you think a little further, after controlling the Siberian region, it provides a possibility for Bactria to attack North America by land, such as Alaska.

In this way, with the protection of the Americas, Great Xia could carry out a north-south attack on the Dawson Dynasty.

All in all, although the current land development value in Siberia is not large, it makes up for the weakest link of Daxia's global strategy and makes Daxia's global map form a perfect closure.

It also made the hegemony of Great Xia unbreakable.

In this way, it is not difficult to understand why Bactria will tear off the Siberian region from the hands of the Europa Empire even if it does not hesitate to launch a full-scale war.

This strategic arrangement was finalized as early as the military and political meeting at the end of the ninth year of Gaia.

The regent Bing'er implemented this strategy well, which made Ouyang Shuo, who had been paying attention to this matter throughout the whole process, very relieved, and felt that the cultivation of Bing'er in the past few years had not been in vain.

After several years of cultivation, it finally blossomed and bore fruit.

…………

December 30th of the tenth year of Gaia, Cosmos, Great Xia.

Trestle.

Ouyang Shuo sat on the captain's seat, and the curved transparent screen in front of him presented the starry sky outside at a glance.

In the middle of the barrier, a huge green planet comes into view.

That's Hope, a superplanet with more than 65% forest coverage.

After half a year of sailing, the pioneer team finally arrived in the outer space of Hope Star and is about to start a new pioneering journey. As soon as he thought of this, Ouyang Shuo couldn't hide his excitement in his heart.

The once hidden blood and adventurous enthusiasm are boiling again.

Looking at this fascinating planet, Ouyang Shuo could not restrain himself, and a desire to conquer was born in his heart, and the ambition and pride of the past burned again.

The dazzling light points of the starry sky evoked the memories in Ouyang Shuo's heart.

At this moment, Ouyang Shuo thought a lot.

There are the ups and downs of the adventurous career in the previous life, the anger when betrayed by the brother, the shock and excitement when reborn, and the panic and confusion when establishing Shanhai Village.

There are also those magnificent years of hegemony, the bloody battles, the careful calculations and plans, and the leading of Great Xia from one peak to another again and again.

All of a sudden, it all went up in smoke.

is like dust, gently brushed away by Ouyang Shuo from the bottom of his heart, and the past cannot be traced.

"Heroes don't mention the courage of the year!"

Looking at the dazzling and colorful star of hope, Ouyang Shuo only hoped that this was a new beginning.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Shuo stood up, resolutely turned around, and looked at the group of civil and military ministers standing behind him, Jiang Shang, Zhang Liang, Wei Ying, Fan Li, Jia Xu, Black Snake, Bai Qi, Han Xin, Ran Min, Evil Lai, Xue Rengui, Chang Yuchun and others, all in the list.

In the game world, they worked hard with Ouyang Shuo and achieved immortal feats.

Great Xia has also stood on top of the world.

Now, they have abandoned everything in the game world and started from scratch, following Ouyang Shuo again, ready to embark on a more dangerous and magnificent epic journey.

The monarch and the minister have long been linked by blood.

The ambition and pride in Ouyang Shuo's heart climbed to the peak, and the spirit of the whole person was changing sharply, his eyes swept over a group of ministers, and he said in a deep voice: "Zhuqing, are you willing to follow me and fight the world again?" ”

Seeing this, Jiang Shang and the others knelt on one knee one by one, their eyes were firm, and they swore in unison.

"Swear to follow Your Majesty!"
