The World Online - Chapter 1434

[Chapter 1344 Persian Good Friday]

Gaia ten years, March 5th.

Surprisingly, Gaia’s first war of ten years did not take place in Europe, but in Asia.

On that day, Great Xia formally declared war on the Persian Empire.

The Persian Empire has a vast territory, and the total number of players is around 30 million. After the Mongol Empire suffered the Western Expedition, the total force of the Empire remained at 2 million.

Coupled with the entrenched Persian Gulf, it was once regarded as an emerging empire in Asia.

In addition, the Persian Empire rarely participated in foreign wars except for the battle with the Mongol Empire. It was internally stable, economically and trade prosperous, and its industry was relatively developed. It was the last important opponent of Daxia in Asia.

Before attacking Tianzhu, Ouyang Shuo hadn’t thought about whether to go to war against the Persian Empire.

The smooth advancement of the battle of Tianzhu not only won another heavyweight Protectorate for Daxia, but also saved a million elite troops, giving Ouyang Shuo the confidence to start a war against Persia.

The identity of the Asian hegemon also has a certain blessing in this battle.

In order to take down the Persian Empire as soon as possible, Ouyang Shuo was not ambiguous at all this time, and dispatched the upper, middle and lower armies, a total of 31 legions, 1.55 million troops.

The Upper Route Army, led by the four regiments of the Fengxiang Army affiliated to the North Asia Theater, marched from Beitaguan in the western Xinjiang province; the Fengxiang Army was led by Guo Ziyi, the general who conquered the North, and served as the commander of the Upper Route Army.

The Central Route Army, consisting of four regiments of the Flying Bear Army and three regiments of the West Asia Army, a total of 350,000 troops, marched from Nanchengguan in the Western Xinjiang Province.

The divine general Wang Jian served as the commander-in-chief of the Central Route Army.

The Lower Route Army, composed of the First South Asian Army to the Fourth Army, has a total of one million troops. It is also the main force for this expedition to the Persian Empire, marching from Ayu Province.

The god general Li Jing personally took command of the expedition.

In addition, the Indian Ocean Fleet will also attack the coastal areas of the Persian Empire from the sea.

Defeat an enemy, use the strength of the country, and then attack the next target.

This kind of approach is very similar to the “meat grinder plan” proposed by Jia Xu in the Tubo battlefield, and it can be regarded as the creation of a Great Xia model.

If things go well, the model can continue to work.

The basis of the operation was due to the success of the Great Xia in the Tianzhu battlefield. It was with the help of unconventional tactics such as the “Emperor’s Death Talisman” that the Great Xia Army was able to easily win.

If you have been head-to-head with the Ashoka Dynasty, I am afraid that it will only be a miserable victory in the end.

Great Xia’s sudden declaration of war was undoubtedly an unacceptable disaster for the Persian Empire.

Regardless of the fact that the Persian Empire has an army of two million, it is difficult to find a chance to win in the face of the three-way Great Xia Army.

The internal stability of the Persian Empire is an advantage, but also a great disadvantage.

Of the two million troops, more than half were reorganized from the imperial guards of various countries. They had basically never experienced any wars, and their actual combat capabilities were really worrying.

Otherwise, the Western Expedition of the Mongol Empire would not have bruised the Persian Empire.

Compared with the Mongolian iron cavalry, the Great Xia Army is more than a step stronger.

The 1.5 million Great Xia army, if you want to convert the combat power, it is at least worth the 3 million or even larger troops of the Persian Empire.

How can the Persian Empire win?

The only way is to ask the allies for help.

Bordering the Persian Empire and belonging to the Silver Hand camp, there are three major dynasties, namely the Arab Empire, the Caesar Dynasty, and the Romanov Dynasty.

Both the Caesar dynasty and the Romanov dynasty were trapped in the European battlefield, and they were counting on the reinforcements of the Persian Empire. It was impossible for them to have the energy to support the Persian Empire in turn.

In particular, the Romanov dynasty was busy attacking the Germanic dynasty, bordering the Persian Empire, and the Far East, which was vast and sparsely populated, lacked support.

Most likely, it is estimated to be the Arab Empire.

The two empires came from the same source, but because of their different beliefs, they were divided into two empires. At that time, the relationship was not very friendly. Whether the Arab Empire could lend a helping hand was still unknown.

Not to mention, the Arab Empire also faced the direct threat of the Great Xia African Theater.

After all the calculations, the Persian Empire can only fight alone.

…………

Great Xia declared war on Persia, like a nuclear bomb, stirring up the calm global situation.

Not only was the Persian Empire the victim, but other people did not expect that Daxia, which was deeply involved in the whirlpool of public opinion, would go on as usual, not forgetting to expand externally, and continue the road to hegemony in the game world.

It seems that the destruction of City of Hope did not have any impact on Daxia’s strategic decision.

This naturally became a reason for the Silver Hand to attack Great Xia.

The problem is, the silver hand and the azure badge are shaping Ouyang Shuo’s image of “Great and Upright”. If you stand up and criticize Ouyang Shuo at this time, it will be wasted not long ago.

Therefore, they can only keep silent, knock out teeth and swallow blood.

“I have to suspect that Ouyang Shuo took advantage of this delicate opportunity to start the war recklessly. UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com” Jack, who was on the other side of the ocean, couldn’t help expressing such emotion.

Jack is not ignorant of the strategic position of the Persian Empire, nor is he ignorant of how precious the oil and gas resources in the Persian Gulf are, but facing the help of the Persian Empire, the Dawson Dynasty is really helpless.

After winning Tianzhu, Daxia’s strategy is terrifyingly deep, and the overall strength has reached a new level. It is really not something that the Dawson Dynasty can compete with.

This was also one of the reasons why the Silver Hand was eager to send Ouyang Shuo, the “God of Plague”, away.

Although there were rumors that Ouyang Shuo was trying his best to cultivate a successor, Jack was still very confident in dealing with this “little girl” Ouyang Bing.

Great Xia’s declaration of war also made the temporarily cooled global battlefield activated again.

Ordinary players can’t understand the inner mystery of Daxia’s declaration of war, but the lords are very clear.

In a sense, with the destruction of Hope City and the impediment of human settlement on Hope Star, the status of the game world has risen instead of falling, and it has become a veritable second world.

In the foreseeable future, most human beings will continue to live in the game world.

Therefore, the competition for the dominance of the game world has actually become more important than before, surpassing the previous competition for the three places.

This is a pie-sharing operation, and the last thing I want to lag behind.

That’s why Ouyang Shuo was able to ignore the public opinion of the outside world and brazenly declare war on the Persian Empire shortly after the Tianzhu War subsided.

The inner logic comes from this.

If the Persian Empire can be defeated and the oil and gas resources in the Persian Gulf can be completely controlled, in the future wave of industrial competition, Daxia will basically be invincible.

At this time, Ouyang Shuo was like a father about to go on a long journey, always wanting to do things as well as possible before leaving, so as to leave a solid family fortune for his successor, Bing’er.

Otherwise, you won’t feel at ease when you leave.
