With the continuous victories of the Xia army and the rapid expansion of the territory of the Xia Kingdom in various places, the huge sand table in the Tiger's Den Hall in the Sea King's Palace in Wang Zezhen became even larger, and the territory of the Xia Kingdom specially marked with the red flag looked dense and more shocking.

In Zhenhai City in February, it was still snowy outside, but the Tiger's Den Hall was still warm as spring because of the use of various boiler heating, at this time Wang Ze was only wearing a woolen casual clothes, looking at this sand table with a satisfied smile.

Although the victory of the Xia army in Rinan County allowed the main force of more than 100,000 Sui troops to retreat safely to Jiaozhi County, the Xia State officially divided most of Jiuzhen County and the entire Ninan County south of Jiuzhen County into its own territory, and confronted the Sui army of Jiaozhi County across a river.

In addition, the still desolate Zhuya County (Hainan Island) also temporarily fell into the hands of the Xia State with the invasion of the Xia State Water Army, and the powerful Sui Empire was helpless, and could only blame its own water army for not being as strong as the Xia State Water Army.

However, Zhuya County is mainly the territory of Mrs. Xian's slang, Wang Ze can only mean that of course it is impossible to occupy it forever, two months after the Sui army basically withdrew from Jiuzhen County, Xia Guo withdrew from this island, but anyone can see that as long as Xia Guo is willing, this island can be occupied at any time.

Not to mention the controversy within the Xian family and the troubles of the Sui Empire's rulers, after all the victories of the Xia State in Nanyang, they began to further encroach and occupy various places, especially the newly victorious Ninan County.

The Xia army of Ninan County not only occupied almost the entire Jiuzhen County to the north, but also occupied the entire Gutara region to the south, launched a massive expansion into the mouth of the Mekong River and a vast area further south, and even expanded to the east bank of the Mekong River to the west.

You must know that both sides of the Mekong River are basically the territory of the Zhenla country at this time, if it were not for the internal strife in Zhenla, it would be absolutely impossible to attack the Linyi country, this time the Xia army of Ninan County almost cut off one-fifth of the territory from the civil strife of Zhenla, and it was still very fertile land.

Although he didn't have the energy to go to Gu Zhenla for a while, there was no one in the entire Nanyang who could resist his own forces, and this rich, fertile, and hot land in all seasons had become the back garden of the Xia Kingdom.

Oh no, but also include Yan Fuzhou (Australia) further south, without any enemies on the sea, and after mastering absolute sea dominance, this vast ocean can already be galloped and roamed by itself, and as much territory as you want, you can row as much as you want.

In addition to the fact that the battle situation in the South Seas made him happy, the battle in the West Ocean was also very smooth.

After tens of thousands of infantry troops led by Cao An and Fang Lei, as well as hundreds of advanced warships of the First Fleet, arrived in the Western Ocean, they joined forces with the Kan Le Third Fleet on the Pearl Islands to launch a large-scale operation against the combined naval forces of the Kingdom of Pandia and the Lion Kingdom of Ceylon.

Under the full preparation of the Xia army, the combined forces of the two countries were defeated, not to mention the annihilation of the naval army, and was counterattacked by the Xia army to the land, and the Xia army of Dingrong City under the leadership of Shen Buqian not only opened up their own territory in Dingrong City, but also expanded this land by five times.

They even expelled the Tianzhu untouchables from the land by the way, expanding the space for further relocation of the Han people, this land has more than 30,000 square kilometers, and when the number of people increases to more than 100,000, it is enough to set up a small county.

At the same time, the Xia army led by Cao An and Fang Lei conquered the capital of the Pandia Kingdom and captured almost all the royal family members, including the king and prince, and it can be said that the country has been effectively destroyed.

Because the Pandia Kingdom has been integrating the southern Tianzhu Peninsula for a relatively short time, under the auspices of the Xia Kingdom, the country that has just become the overlord of the Southern Tianzhu Dynasty has been divided into five small countries again, and after killing all the members of the Pandia royal family, the Xia army is the master of dividing the remaining territories of Pandia to five more cooperative ministers.

Under the temptation of becoming the lord of a country, these ministers did not care about boring things such as national hatred and family hatred, so they rushed to provide a lot of assistance to the Xia army, not to mention, and even the southernmost small country ceded the southernmost territory of the entire country to the Xia state.

In this way, the Xia Kingdom completely controlled a large area of land at the southernmost tip of the South Tianzhu Peninsula, laying a solid foundation for the Xia Kingdom to further expand inland in the future.

After seeing the tragic experience of the Pandian royal family, the king of Ceylon no longer mentioned anything to increase the power of Western maritime trade, and simply surrendered neatly, and took the initiative to compensate a large amount of property.

In fact, the Xia Kingdom valued more than the property paid by Ceylon, nor the various gems abundant in the area, but the ownership of two pieces of land obtained on the territory of Ceylon, which were the later Jaffna on the peninsula in the northeast of the island, and Colombo in the southwest.

Of course, there is no large city in these two places at present, that is, Jaffna is very close to the South Tianzhu Continent, and a small city has been established, and the location of Colombo in the later era is even more desolate, and there is nothing.

Based on these two excellent ports, the Xia Kingdom circled out nearly 1,000 square kilometers of land in each of the Ceylon circles, and after obtaining these two good deep-water ports, the expanding Kanle Third Fleet did not have to be resigned to the Pearl Islands, which were too small in scale.

After using the two fat chickens of Pandia and Lion Country Ceylon as tools to set an example for monkeys, the original commotion of the Zhuyuan Kingdom finally stopped, but they were frightened by the tragic fate of the Pandians, and the attitude of the Xia people was very clear, I can pick you up if you listen to me, and if you are disobedient, you can be killed.

Not only did the Zhu Kingdom completely extinguish the idea of revenge and restore the territory, but the other countries that wanted Huang Que to be behind also had to stop, this Xia Country was not only strong, but even had a great ability to take revenge, so it was better to provoke less subtlety.

After Wang Ze received the good news from the West, he was very satisfied with the way Cao An and Fang Lei dealt with it, only with iron and blood can these fearful and unvirtuous guys be deterred, since we Han people have so many people, then simply spread the seeds all over the world, why leave those fertile lands to others.

Under the tragic example of the Pandia Kingdom and the Lion Kingdom Ceylon, the merchant ships of the Xia Kingdom went to Dongtianzhu and other places at the mouth of the Ganges River to conduct normal trade, and there was no longer the appearance of being troubled by local officials everywhere at the beginning, which was the deterrent of the Xia army.

After occupying a few new strongholds in southern Tianzhu, Wang Ze set his sights on the mouth of the Ganges River, which was not only the trade center of Tianzhu on the east coast, but also the center of trade between Tianzhu inland and overseas countries, and its geographical location was somewhat similar to that of Shanghai in later China.

Wang Ze wanted to attack this place not because the land was fertile and the people were rich, but because the mouth of the Ganges River was too close to Shannanqiang, or the newly established Tubo, and it was far easier to send troops to attack Tubo from here than from the direction of Huangshui.

As long as the Xia army went up the wide Ganges River, and then along the Tisda River, which originated in Sikkim in later generations, they could go all the way from the waterway to Sikkim, which could save a lot of distance, and when the Xia army arrived here, it was only five or six hundred miles away from the capital of Tibet at this time.

Even if you add the difficulty of climbing the Himalayas, it is definitely much easier than climbing the mountains of Jishi Mountain (Ashimaqing Daxue Mountain), Bayankala Mountain, and Tanggula Mountain from the north.

At this time, Tubo was still built in the southern part of the Brahmaputra River in Pibocheng, not Lhasa in later generations, and Lhasa did not establish the capital in Luoqi until the Song Dynasty cadres married Li Er's niece Princess Wencheng as a little wife, and at this time the leader of Tubo was still under the leadership of the Song Dynasty cadre his grandfather Dabu Nesai.

Moreover, the Song Dynasty cadres did not establish the capital in Luo because they wanted to settle Princess Wencheng well, but to better attack the wealthy Li Tang Dynasty, which is undoubtedly a great irony in the history books of later generations that Princess Wencheng was regarded as the main wife and the friendship between Tubo and the Tang Dynasty was hyped up.

There is no doubt that the trend of Tibet becoming stronger is undoubted, but it is a pity that because it is deep in the inland plateau, even if the Xia Kingdom wants to interfere, it is impossible.

Wang Ze also knew that he would not be able to interfere with the unification of the entire plateau by Tubo before he defeated the Sui Dynasty, but it was necessary for him to prepare for the battle with the Tubo in advance, otherwise the Tang Dynasty would be too heavy in the future to fight the Tubo people on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

At this time, the most powerful countries in Tianzhu are undoubtedly the two countries of Eastern Tianzhu and Northern Tianzhu, Northern Tianzhu is because the Huns who established the country have not completely declined, and the wealth and prosperity of the Ganges estuary have provided a lot of wealth for Eastern Tianzhu, and Xia must face great problems if they want to expand their power here.

However, Wang Ze is not afraid, why Bangladesh can be established in later generations is not because there are a large number of *** living here, it is precisely because the Arabs vigorously expanded their power at the mouth of the Ganges River when they controlled the sea routes between the east and the west, which made this place far from the Persian Gulf have so many ***.

Wang Ze now also controls the route between the east and the west, and has a stronger maritime advantage, coupled with the lessons of Pandia and the Lion Kingdom Ceylon in front of him, as long as the Xia Kingdom quietly develops forces here, there will not be too many people who dare to oppose it.

As soon as he thought of this, Wang Ze felt a burst of pride in his heart, from the panic that had just crossed over to the Northern and Southern Dynasties, to now he seemed to be leading the global map changes.

Although it does not have the ability and prestige of the global hegemon of the later generations of the Mirijian Empire, the only countries that can confront him at present are the Sui Dynasty and the Turks, and the other declining Roman Empire and the Persian Empire are not their opponents at all.

When he thought of Persian Wang Ze, he was angry.

The Persian Empire was no longer as powerful as Darius I or Ctesiphon, and after hundreds of years of war with the Roman Empire and the Huns, Persia was not as powerful as it used to be, in fact, as long as he did business honestly, he would take care of this great patron.

However, Persia is bent on monopolizing the trade between the East and the West, not only wants to monopolize the trade in the Persian Gulf, but even wants to repeatedly block the waterways of Yemen, which makes Wang Ze happy in his heart?

Therefore, when the news came from the West that the Fourth Fleet united with the Axumites and the Romans to defeat Persia and invade again, Wang Ze didn't mention how happy he was.

In particular, after Cao An, Fang Lei, and the First Fleet arrived at the Zhiyuan Islands, they simply went around the Persian Gulf together, not only sending all the last navy of the Persian Empire to the bottom of the sea, but even making a series of thorough friendly visits to its various coastal port cities.

In the complex psychological changes of the Persians regretting and regretting, tens of thousands of Xia soldiers led by Cao An and Fang Lei withdrew contentedly, but the position of the mouth of the Persian Gulf was guarded by the Fourth Fleet of the Xia State, and all ships passing through here had to pay taxes to the Xia people, whether it was Persian ships or ships from other countries.

As a result, the Western shipping route controlled by the Xia State was completely restored again, and the Yemeni waterway became more prosperous, and the Xia Kingdom's control of this shipping route was more solid, but the maritime trade through the Persian Gulf was lowered by a level, so that the Persians did not know how to face their past selves.

With the complete cessation of the wars in the South and Western Seas, the maritime trade and domestic economic production of the Xia State reached a new level, and with the cessation of the wars in these places, the Xia State finally had more energy to attack the Turks and guard against the increasingly powerful Sui Empire.
