After getting the first-hand information of the [Blood Blade] assassination of Duan Zhengchun, Ouyang Shuo now had to think about how to use it as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Duan Yu.

Duan Zhengchun's willingness to abdicate and make way for Xian does not mean that Duan Yu is willing.

Of course, without the support of Da Xia behind him, Duan Yu would not have been able to ascend the throne, and now it depends on how to arrange a decent way, that is, to preserve the survival of the Duan family, and to ensure that Da Xia controls Dali.

Ouyang Shuo handed over the matter to the cabinet for a vote, and he would make a decision when he returned to the capital.

…………

June 28, Edo Castle.

Ouyang Shuo finally decided to set off to return to the capital, but strangely enough, Ouyang Shuo did not choose to teleport, but let the royal fleet and the Yashan fleet accompany him, preparing to return to Shanhai City along the coastal road.

In addition to the two fleets, the Leopard Tao Army led by Han Xin and the First Army of the Tiger Army will also accompany him.

The 1st Regiment of the City Guard is temporarily stationed in Yingzhou County, and will be responsible for the defense of Yingzhou County until the Privy Council completes the reorganization of the Yingzhou Corps.

Naturally, the Pacific Fleet remained.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the fleet set out from Edo Port and sailed south, riding the wind and waves.

By the time the fleet passed through the Yizhou Strait, it was already July 1, and the first National War Month had officially come to an end, and the relevant buffs, attack restrictions, and other national war settings had all been canceled.

There was a brief period of calm around the world.

The victors are busy taking over new territories, and the losers are long gone in the wilderness.

Therefore, no one would think that any territory would be full of food and support, and choose to provoke a new national war at the end of the national war month, and the gains outweigh the losses.

The global territories entered a state of semi-relaxation, including the Luzon District. Ouyang Shuo saw this point, and suddenly launched a national war against Luzon at the most unlikely time.

…………

July 2, the city of Laoag.

Luzon is mainly composed of three island groups: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, with Luzon in the north, Mindanao in the south, and Visayas in between.

To the north, Luzon is the largest, most populous and most economically developed island in Luzon, rich in rice, coconuts and Luzon cigars are famous all over the world.

The Intramural City of Manila is located at the southernmost tip of Luzon, while the city of Laoag is located at the northernmost point of Luzon.

In ancient times, Luzon was a small country called Luzon. Since the Song and Yuan dynasties, Chinese merchant ships often came here to trade, and there are special descriptions in "Examination of the East and West Oceans" and "History of the Ming Dynasty: Foreign Biography".

From 1571 to 1898, Luzon Island was occupied by Spain, so "Hailu" was translated as Little Luzon, and the whole country ruled by Spain was called Greater Luzon.

As a harbor city, the city of Laoag gradually woke up in the early morning, especially at the wharf, where fishing boats were dressed in moonlight, riding the wind and waves, and began to go out to sea to fish.

In the just-concluded month of the national war, Luzon stayed out of the matter, and the people of the territory naturally escaped, not realizing the cruelty of the war, and the whole city seemed very peaceful and quiet.

The sea breeze blew through the streets and alleys, gradually waking up the sleeping people.

At this moment, warships appeared in front of the port, the unique blue sea dragon flag of the Great Xia Navy, with a canvas and white sails, facing the morning sun, and the hunting sound of the sea breeze.

Approaching the port, the fleet suddenly accelerated.

Before the people could react, the vanguard of the fleet had already rushed into the port.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The sudden sound of artillery broke the silence of the city and woke up the dreamers.

"What's going on?"

People got up in a hurry, didn't have time to wash, anxiously went out into the streets, asking each other.

"It's the sound of shelling coming from the direction of the docks." Someone said.

"Could it be a pirate?"

The people were at a loss, and they had never experienced war, and they seemed very flustered.

The lord of Laoag had also woken up, and had received information that the docks had been shelled, "Quick, go and find out if it's a pirate or an enemy warship." ”

The castle lord was quite calm.

But calmness could not save the city of Laoag, and before they could detect a result, the Leopard Tao army had successfully landed at the dock under the command of Han Xin.

The mighty army rushed into the city with little resistance, and soon took control of the vital points.

Subsequently, Ouyang Shuo took the Shenwu Guard into the City Lord's Mansion, while Han Xin did not stop, and commanded the Leopard Tao Army to take Laoag City as the base, scatter in all directions, and began to attack the surrounding territories.

The 1st Legion of the Tiger Army remained in the city of Laoag.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Ouyang Shuo took out the [Teleportation Talisman] he had just gotten and chose to use it, and as a blue light flashed, a mysterious transnational teleportation array appeared on the square in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

With this transnational teleportation array, Great Xia established a bridgehead in Luzon, ready to teleport a large army to attack Luzon. This is much cheaper than starting a national war and attacking from the sea.

With the opening of the teleportation array, Shenwuwei went to Shanhai City with Ouyang Shuo's edict, and ordered the cabinet to urgently dispatch a group of officials to take over the city and establish order.

Fortunately, when he set off from Edo City, Ouyang Shuo had already informed the cabinet in advance, otherwise he would have to be in a hurry. During the month of the National War, Bactria expanded its territory, and a large number of officials were already dispatched to Goryeo, Nanzhang, Zhenla, and Yingzhou Prefecture, and now they have to support Luzon, which is indeed a bit stretched.

The raid on Luzon went unusually well.

Before the fleet arrived at the port, it had actually engaged in a fire exchange with the first formation of the Luzon fleet in the surrounding waters. The Luzon fleet, which was unprepared, was almost powerless in front of the Great Xia fleet.

In less than two hours, the first formation of the Luzon fleet was completely routed.

It was at that moment that a system announcement sounded in the ears of the Luzon players who were still asleep.

"System announcement: The lord of Huaxia District said that Wuyi took the initiative to provoke a national war, Luzon entered the national war mode, and the royal city of Manila entered a second-level alert state, please check the specific situation for yourself!"

……

"System announcement: Luzon has entered the national war mode, according to the rules of the national war, during the national war, the royal city teleportation array will automatically cut off the connection with the territorial teleportation array, and the player cannot be reincarnated immediately if he dies, please be aware of the player!"

……

"Presumably, at this time, the Luzon players are already gathering to the north."

Because under the cover of the fleet's return, and in such a special period as the end of the national war month, it was not difficult to raid and take the city of Laoag.

The hard part is how to hold on.

Just let Great Xia take a bite in Luzon, even if the Luzon lord Martin can endure this breath, the eight million players in Luzon can't swallow this breath, and they will definitely take back Laoag City at all costs.

If there was no [Teleportation Talisman], it would be impossible for Ouyang Shuo to provoke Lu Zon at this time.

Even if the transnational teleportation array was opened, Ouyang Shuo never thought that he would take the entire Luzon through this big battle. Having just experienced a series of national wars, the Great Xia army is also very tired, and it is not suitable to start a big war again.

As long as you hold the city of Laoag, you will be considered victorious.

Han Xin led his troops to sweep the surrounding area not to expand the territory, the main purpose was twofold, one was to plunder grain and grass, and the other was to plunder the craftsmen and the common people.

With food and grass, the army can be stationed in the city of Laoag for a long time.

As for the craftsmen and the common people, it is natural to use it to strengthen the city defenses of Laoag City and build Laoag City into a fortress of war.

As soon as the officials sent by the cabinet arrived, they immediately went into action.

With the cooperation of the First Legion of the Tiger Army, a part of the people were driven out of the city, responsible for cutting down all the woods outside the city, and even the weeds had to be swept away.

Outside of Laoag, there will be nothing to hide.

The felled timber and the harvested stone were brought back to the city, stockpiled for use as fortifications, or as fortifications.

Workshops in the city also began to operate, producing enough arrows.

In addition, Ouyang Shuo also took advantage of the convenience of the fleet to bring a batch of weapons and equipment and grain and grass materials from Edo to help the army tide over the initial difficulties.

In the future, the city of Laoag will be under military control.

To put it bluntly, this will be a super barracks, responsible for fighting Luzon.

After opening the transnational teleportation array, Ouyang Shuo followed to inform the allied guilds such as the [Bloody Mercenary Group] and the [Dead Snow Rose Mercenary Group], and asked them to dispatch members of the guild who were keen on PK to come to help.

It is foreseeable that before the next large-scale invasion of Luzon in Great Xia, there will be a bloody PK between adventurous players outside the city of Laoag at every moment.

This will become a new hot spot for PK maniacs.

…………

The efficient administrative system of Great Xia is vividly reflected in the case of Laoag City.

Without Ouyang Shuo opening his mouth, in just two days, everything was already on the right track. On the periphery, the Leopard Tao army led by Han Xin had also engaged the Luzon vanguard troops.

Although he had no intention of invading Luzon in an all-out way, Ouyang Shuo did not mind using the hands of the Leopard Tao Army to fight Luzon, to blow Luzon's self-confidence and let them see the power of the Great Xia Army.

There is a battle at the front, construction at the rear, everything is in order.

Receiving Ouyang Shuo's request, Scarlet Romance and the others were also quite enthusiastic, and while feeling Ouyang Shuo's madness, they were very interested in sending a PK team to support.

When players in Huaxia learned that Great Xia had actually established a transnational teleportation array in Luzon, some PK madmen immediately became excited, and took the initiative to apply for teleportation to Laoag City without waiting for Ouyang Shuo to make a call.

Ouyang Shuo naturally did not refuse to come.

In just a few days, Laoag City has gathered 100,000 PK madmen.

The influx of a large number of players also caused a very large load on the logistics of Laoag City, and Ouyang Shuo immediately ordered the nearby Annan Province and Qiongzhou County to transport grain and grass to Laoag City.

At the same time, Ouyang Shuo also welcomed the Great Xia Chamber of Commerce to come here to carry out trade.

In order to ensure the safety of the waters near Laoag City, the Yashan Fleet will station two full formations in the port of Waag City, which is enough to ensure the safety of ships coming and going.

With the Indian Ocean Fleet responding, the Luzon Fleet would never have the courage to attack the city of Laoag.

On July 7, seeing that the city of Laoag was gradually stabilized, Ouyang Shuo left Han Xin to sit here for the time being, and he set off to return to Shanhai City under the escort of the royal fleet.

The 1st Regiment of the Tiger Army will also return to its station.
