[Chapter 1348 Silver Fading]

“What do you say?” William asked.

Annie glanced at William, and said cautiously, “I think you’d better admit defeat to Ouyang Shuo in advance.”

“…”

William was silent, embarrassed.

“Admit defeat now, we still have a little bargaining power, don’t wait for the enemy to capture Fort Avek, then we will really be nothing.” Although Annie couldn’t bear it, she still wanted to make it clear.

“I heard that Daxia treats lords who can voluntarily surrender very preferentially. Even a deadly enemy like Xiongba can sit in the high position of Xijiang Protectorate. Brother, you are no worse than them.”

“Forget it!” William sighed deeply, “I admit defeat! For Gangduo, for the family, perhaps this is the best ending, and there is no need to worry about it anymore.”

“Brother, you have to hold on.” Annie was a little worried.

The defeat of Gangduo seemed to have mobilized William’s energy and spirit, and he lost his fighting spirit.

William waved his hand, unwilling to continue the conversation.

Seeing Annie, she had no choice but to back down.

…………

April of Gaia’s tenth year was a turbulent time for the European continent.

First, the Great Xia raided the Gangduo dynasty, and then it broke out that the Gaul dynasty was attached to the Germanic dynasty, and at the same time took the opportunity to incorporate the news of the Spanish army and the Gangduo army, which surprised people.

On April 7th, news spread that the Gangduo Dynasty had surrendered to Daxia.

Shocking news came one after another, and in the blink of an eye, the war-torn continent of Europe underwent a major reshuffle, forming a new power structure.

Not only that, on April 10, the Germanic dynasty, which had just annexed the Gaul dynasty and gained momentum, immediately launched a counterattack against the invading Romanov dynasty, and was about to regain lost ground.

The Romanov dynasty is known for its viciousness, how could it give up the meat of the mouth?

Of course, Pushkin was not a reckless man. He also tried to negotiate with the Germanic dynasty, wanting to use the existing front as the border, redraw the border, and coexist peacefully.

How can the Germanic king Manstein agree?

You know, the most fertile land of the Germanic dynasty was occupied by the Romanov dynasty.

Manstein threatened to start peace talks only if the Romanov dynasty returned all its territories.

Such harsh conditions were also unacceptable to Pushkin.

Pushkin was reluctant, and more importantly, once the Romanov dynasty retreated to the original border, with the current strength of the Germanic dynasty, after recuperating, it is likely to counterattack the Romanov dynasty.

Pushkin valued the strategic security of St. Petersburg more than anything else.

There are irreconcilable conflicts of interest between the two dynasties. Since they can’t reach an agreement, they can only be resolved through war.

On the other hand, the Caesar dynasty saw the Gaul dynasty defecting to the enemy, the Gundor dynasty collapsed, and the Spanish dynasty that had already collapsed, the Silver Hand’s power in the European continent was cut in half.

With the collapse of the two dynasties, the strength of the Silver Hand in the world has also suffered a serious setback. If the precarious Persian Empire is included, the number of Silver Hands has dropped from ten at its peak to four.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Caesar withdrew his army from the front line in desperation and placed them on the border.

Judging by his posture, Caesar is not going to participate in the battle for the time being, and he will come to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and he will bet on which side wins.

With the affairs of the Gaul dynasty ahead, Caesar had no pressure.

Seeing that Caesar was so cowardly and unwilling to share the pressure for the Romanov dynasty, Pushkin immediately became angry and publicly accused Caesar of being a cowardly and selfish villain who betrayed the organization.

Why is Caesar so easy to bully?

Immediately return the color.

The scolding battle between the two gradually went from internal to public, and staged a big farce.

In fact, the Silver Hand’s power in Europe has been disintegrated, and it can no longer form a joint force, which makes Jack on the other side of the Atlantic very sad, but he does nothing.

Jack has his problems too.

After annexing the Gaul dynasty, the Germanic dynasty began to integrate the territories of several major dynasties in West Africa, expel the army of the Caesar dynasty,

Bring all of West Africa under Germanic rule.

In this way, the Germanic dynasty can unite with the Bantu dynasty in the south to form a pincer attack on the Central African region that was defeated by the Dawson dynasty.

Judging from the posture, the azure badge is preparing to drive the Dawson Dynasty out of the African continent.

Presumably, after stabilizing the situation in Europe, the ambitions of the Azure Badge also swelled. They were no longer satisfied with being a nest in the European continent, but wanted to establish a new world in Africa.

If Central Africa is really taken by them, they may be able to compete with the Daxia African Protectorate Tribunal.

This is what Ouyang Shuo didn’t want to see.

In this way, the African continent, which has not been calm for a long time, is bound to become a new battlefield for the three major forces to compete. However, the situation of this struggle will not be limited to wars on the surface, but more in the dark.

The flames of war in Africa may be difficult to extinguish in a short period of time.

…………

April 15th, Beijing Normal University.

The Silver Hand suffered a serious setback and was on the verge of disintegration, which made Ouyang Shuo feel good.

At the same time, Ouyang Shuo had to be vigilant due to the adversity of the azure badge.

The global situation is far from being completely clear.

To Ouyang Shuo’s relief, the fact that the Gaul dynasty joined the Germanic dynasty showed that in the face of survival, the binding force of the two organizations on their members was not as strong as he imagined.

Everything is still based on strength.

This provides the basis for the complete eradication of the two major organizations in Daxia in the future.

This morning, the imperial court’s disposal plan for the Gangduo Dynasty has been fully released, and it is waiting to be promulgated and implemented.

The imperial court decided to establish the entire Gangduo Dynasty as the Gangduo Province, and appointed Wang Shouren, the former governor of Kyoto and also the veteran governor of the empire, as the governor of Gangduo to guard this strategic hub for the empire.

In view of the fact that the Gangduo Province is isolated overseas and it is not easy for the imperial court to manage, the imperial court also decided to set up the Gangduo Jiedu Envoy Office above the Gangduo Governor’s Yamen and under the imperial court to lead the military and political affairs of the Gangduo area on behalf of the imperial court.

Under the authorization of the imperial court, the Jiedu Shifu exercises limited military and political power.

The difference is that the government of the Gangduo Province is located in Fort Avek, and the Jiedushi Mansion is located in the former British royal city – Wudu.

Such an arrangement also weakens the intervention of the Jiedu Envoy’s Mansion in the Governor’s Yamen.

The original Gangduo King William was entrusted by Ouyang Shuo with a heavy responsibility as the first Gangduo Jiedu envoy.

Such an arrangement is not only a compensation for William’s voluntary surrender, but also a means to appease the people of Gangduo.

It is not an easy task for the people of Gangduo, especially the proud Gangduo players, to suddenly accept the rule of the Eastern Dynasty. It needs to be done step by step.

If Ouyang Shuo hadn’t agreed to go to the Hope Star, the Gunduo players would have started to riot.

In addition to domestic arrangements, there are also military deployments.

The ghost army, together with the Gangduo descended army, was reorganized into the Western European Army, which was temporarily placed under the jurisdiction of the Gangduo Jiedu Mansion.

The remaining soldiers in the reorganization did not arrange to retire, but were temporarily incorporated into the reserve service.

Zeng Guoquan, the former commander of the Ghost Army, continues to serve as the commander of the Western European Army.

William’s sister, Anne, the former Princess of Gunduo, was appointed as the head of the First Army of the Western European Army.

In this way, the two most important members of the original Gangduo Dynasty have been properly arranged.

After taking over the Gangduo Dynasty, Da Xia sent an envoy to the Germanic Dynasty, demanding that the Germanic Dynasty return the 120,000 Gangduo troops it had seized.

The reasons given by Daxia are also very good. Since the Gangduo Dynasty surrendered to Daxia, Daxia naturally has the obligation to “take home” the soldiers who were detained without reason.

“There is a one-month deadline. If you don’t pay back, you will have to fight against each other.” Ouyang Shuo’s tone was very tough.

To do so, one is to buy Gangduo people’s hearts.

The people of Gangduo are glass-hearted, and they have always played the role of the weak in the European continent. The former King William of Gangduo has never been tough in front of European dynasties, which makes the people of Gangduo, especially the players of Gangduo, feel aggrieved.

Now, as soon as Daxia took over Gangduo, he put on a strong posture and vented his anger on their behalf, which would naturally win people’s hearts and let them see the benefits of surrendering to Daxia.

Second, Ouyang Shuo also wanted to take the opportunity to beat the mountain and shake the tiger, to beat the Germanic Dynasty.

Ouyang Shuo vaguely noticed that after the annexation of the Gaul Dynasty, the Germanic Dynasty became a bit cocky, UU Reading www.

sonicmtl.com vaguely regards himself as the boss of Europe, and even his attitude towards Da Xia is not as respectful as before.

This is not allowed by Ouyang Shuo.

Ouyang Shuo wanted to use this matter to wake up the Germanic Dynasty and see who is the boss.

He has reason to believe that the current German dynasty would never have the guts to break up with Daxia.

Among other things, once Daxia cut off the sea trade channel of the Germanic dynasty, it would be enough for the Germanic dynasty to drink a pot.

Therefore, the 120,000 Gangduo army had to be paid back by the Germanic dynasty.

Ouyang Shuo really wanted to see what kind of expression Manstein, who was in full bloom at the moment, would show after seeing the Daxia envoys. It would be very exciting.

After the Germanic Dynasty returned the impounded Gangduo Army, the global forces would have a new understanding of the situation in Europe, which would be very beneficial to the hegemony of Great Xia.

In addition to the army, the imperial court also has arrangements for the Gangduo Royal Fleet.

In the sea battle with the Atlantic Fleet, only two formations of the Royal Fleet were defeated, and the other three formations were still cruising in the North Sea at that time and did not have time to participate in the battle.

Otherwise, the outcome of the naval battle might be different.

After the surrender of the Gangdor Dynasty, the Royal Fleet naturally faced the fate of reorganization.

Ouyang Shuo did not treat them badly.

The decree simplifies the Royal Gundor Fleet into two formations, eliminates all sailing battleships, and equips all ironclad ships.

At the same time, the name of the fleet was changed to the Mediterranean Fleet.

As the name suggests, the Mediterranean Fleet will patrol the Mediterranean Sea full-time, so as to reduce the burden on the Atlantic Fleet and make up for this shortcoming.

The Mediterranean Fleet belongs to the African theater. The former Royal Fleet Commander Nelson, who is also a famous admiral in British history, was appointed as the Admiral of the Mediterranean Fleet.

This can be regarded as the best of people.
