Chapter 1160 – One Versus Four

In the blink of an eye, it was the 3rd month, 10th day.

During this period of time, the Morocco relocation job had proceeded in an orderly manner. In order to not raise suspicion of Silver Hand, the entire process was relatively slow.

On this day, the Silver Hand Alliance Army vanguard forces arrived at the Algeria border.

At the area where Morocco and Algeria intersected, half was high plains, and the other half was mountains that made it hard to travel. When Lu Bu was ordered to chase and capture the Morocco King, he got lost in these mountains and woods.

As the attacking side, the Alliance Army had no choice but to travel through the forest.

On the contrary, the West Africa Legion corps, especially the 1st and 2nd legions of the original Morocco formation, were very familiar with the area and had started preparing defensive work.

The first time the two sides engaged was on the 13th day of the 3rd month.

On that day, the vanguard forces of the Alliance Army walked out of the mountains and forests and officially stepped onto Great Xia land. At that moment, the West Africa Legion corps used the convenience of the geography and their home ground advantage to set up an ambush, giving the Alliance Army a heavy blow.

The 100 thousand vanguard forces were scattered in the forests, while the West Africa Legion corps was like a ghost, claiming the lives of the enemy.

If it were not for their main force arriving in time, these 100 thousand troops would more or less be all dead.

Even so, 30 thousand of the 100 thousand army died, teaching the Alliance Army a bloody lesson. It announced to the world that the invincible army of Great Xia would not be provoked.

However, when the Alliance Army main force arrived, the West Africa legion corps suddenly yielded and fled.

In the next week, the Alliance Army won successive battles quickly, taking down the cities around Morocco. The west Africa legion corps retreated all the way toward Rabat.

Although that was the case, the Alliance Army did not put down their guard.

Rabat had a teleportation formation, and Great Xia could send troops at any moment. All signs showed that Great Xia was going to rely on Rabat to fight a siege and defense battle against the Alliance Army.

However, the Alliance Army did not hesitate and headed right for Rabat.

3rd month, 21st day, the Battle of Rabat officially began as the huge Alliance Army surrounded the city.

Just as the Alliance Army had expected, the defense of the Great Xia Army was really stubborn. They had a sort of fearless feeling, which made the battlefield enter a standstill.

At this very moment, the Great Xia Army that was ready and waiting bared its fangs.

…

3rd month, 22nd day, Piao Country.

Piao Country’s southwest was the Andaman Sea, connected in the northwest to India, northeast to China, southeast to Siam and Nanzhang, and its capital Naypyidaw

was located in the central China region.

Speaking of which, the Piao Country was a civilization with a long history, going through four feudal dynasties. During the Pegu dynasty, it even submitted to China.

Piao country had 4.5 million people. After the 6th system update, the original 450 thousand imperial city guards were reduced to 225 thousand.

During this period of time, Piao Country Lord Mo Angyin was really depressed. As a member of Azure Badge, he could not go against the plans of the organization and was forced to stand on the frontlines against Great Xia.

Thinking about this giant of a neighbor, Mo Angyin felt a chill run down his spine.

Regardless of who wins in the battle between Great Xia and the organization in the future, Piao country would only be a chess piece. Mo Angyin could not see any glorious prospects.

The lesson from Australian Lord Avera was still fresh in his mind.

However, as a member of the organization, Mo Angyin could not go against it because the relationship between the two sides was too deep. As long as the organization wanted it, his reputation could be totally destroyed.

The reason why a chess piece was a chess piece was as such.

Just as Mo Angyin was unsettled, a System Notification sounded out in his ear.

“System Notification: China Region Lord Ouyang Shuo has started a country war, Piao country enters country war mode, entering level 2 state of emergency. As for the specific situation, players please check it out yourselves.”

…

“System Notification: Piao country enters country war mode. Based on the rules, during this period, the imperial city teleportation formation will be cut off from the territory ones. Players are unable to revive when they die.”

…

“How did this happen?” Mo Angyin’s face was ashen white. Based on the intel from the organization, Great Xia should be focusing on Morocco, so why did they suddenly attack Piao Country?

Thinking back to how Great Xia usually acted, Mo Angyin suddenly thought about something.

“Are they trying to lead the troops away from Morocco, or are they trying to misdirect us?”

Mo Angyin was not in the mood to guess. With the character of Great Xia, since they had started the war, they would not stop until they won it. With Piao Country’s weak strength, how would they be able to block it?

“In the end, I’ll be a sacrificial victim of the organization!” Mo Angyin was filled with grievances.

However, this grievances had nowhere to be released.

The only party that could save Piao was their neighbor, the Peacock Dynasty.

22nd day 8 AM, Great Xia southwest warzone commander Baiqi led the Dragon Legion Corps and the Hanoi legion corps, a total of 650 thousand troops, to cross the border and start the country war.

The motto of the Great Xia Army was to end the betrayal.

Before this, Piao Country had sent envoys to express their willingness to submit to Great Xia. However, they then changed their mind. To Great Xia, this was a betrayal, and there was nothing wrong with them taking revenge.

…

Same day, Johor.

Johor was split by the South China Sea into two. The Johor peninsula connected to Siam as well as Kalimantan, which was connected to Java.

Imperial city Putrajaya was located in the Johor peninsula.

Compared to Piao Country, Johor only had 2.5 million players, so Putrajaya only had 125 thousand guards.

At basically the same time as the Battle of Piao Country began, Johor was suddenly hit with the flames of war and was destined to be drowned by the Great Xia Army.

At 8 AM, the Tiger Legion Corps that was lying in wait in Xingzhou Prefecture went past the narrow Johor Straits to attack Johor peninsula to take down Putrajaya under Sun Bin’s leadership.

At 9 AM, under the protection of the Yashan Squadron, the Leopard Legion Corps and the Luzon formation entered Kalimantan.

Kalimantan was the third biggest island in the world, and its land size was similar to Qinghai Province. Its north was owned by Johor and the south was owned by Java.

Han Xin leading his troops to attack Kalimantan meant that Great Xia was not only attacking Johor and Piao, these two traitors, but they were also going to officially declare war on Java.

Such an imposing manner was so shocking.

The moment the System Notification sounded out, Johor Lord Shantha probably had the same feeling as Mo Angyin. Apart from bitterness, there was nothing else.

…

Let us talk about Java.

Java was formed from 17508 small islands, and it was the biggest chain island country. Its biggest area was Kalimantan, Sumatra, Irian island, Java island, and Sulawesi island.

Although Great Xia was declaring war on three countries had once, it did not lose its head.

Java was not such an easy country to take down, so declaring war on it was mainly to nibble at it, reducing the strategic space of Java and make it so that it could not start waves in Southeast Asia.

Out of the five islands, Java island where imperial city Jakarta was located as well as Sumatra island where Badong City was located were not within the attack range of this battle. The remaining three islands were not so lucky.

Han Xin was in charge of taking down Kalimantan, the Nanjiang legion corps was tasked with taking down Irian island that was next to Australia. As for Sulawesi, it would depend on the progression of the battle.

If they could smoothly take down the three islands, it would be enough to hurt Java whilst not shaking its roots and challenging their bottom line.

If Java were to go all out, it would be really problematic.

…

In a day, Great Xia started three consecutive country wars.

Apart from using the million troops in the southwest war zone, they moved the Leopard and Tiger Legion Corps, totally giving up on the west and north defenses to go all out.

In Ouyang Shuo’s words, “Since we are going to play, let’s go all out.”

Utilizing the power of the war exempt card, Ouyang Shuo was prepared to sweep Southeast Asia and chase Silver Hand and Azure Badge out of it. This was to create a stable backline for future expansion.

This seemed really risky, but it was actually a really safe plan.

Java, Johor, and Piao formed a combined battle front. As they were attacked at the same time, they could not help one another.

As a result, whether they fought or not did not make much of a difference.

Since that was the case, rather than defending on the backfoot, why not strike out and show the invincibility of Great Xia? It would make Silver Hand realize that when compared to Azure Badge, Great Xia was not weak.

And this was not all that Great Xia did.

Zhang Liang had mentioned that Somalia Province might fall in the same way as Morocco. As such, they needed to take down another country in Africa to combine it with Somalia.

With two provinces, Great Xia would not fear any challenge.

One had to say that the reason why Morocco was in such an awkward position was because it was separated from Somalia; they were not connected.

If not, Great Xia might have been able to have a good battle with Silver Hand in Africa.

Hence, while they started the three wars in Southeast Asia, Great Xia also started one in Africa, aiming right at Ethiopia.

Ethiopia had three thousand years of history, establishing the Nubia empire in 800 BC. Currently, they had 10 million players and the 500 thousand guards in the imperial city of Addis Ababa.

Compared to Southeast Asia, Ethipia alone was bigger than both Johor and Piao added together.

As a result, to take it down, Great Xia sent out the Guards Legion Corps, City Protection Legion Corps, and the East Africa legion corps, dispatching a million troops. Apart from that, the West Africa legion corps would assist after they left Morocco Province.

Consequently, the Battle of Ethiopia would be a crucial battle in this string of wars.

If they were solely fighting Ethiopia, the Great Xia Army would have a high chance of winning. Who knows whether the Arab Empire at the side would join in and make matters complicated or not.

The war exempt card lasted only for a month, which meant that it would be the best if all four battles could end within that month.

If not, they were going to face many problems.

It was due to the basis of having a month that Great Xia did not send troops for half a month to prepare better.

It was okay if they did not strike, but when they did, they would shock everyone.

…

The sudden operation of Great Xia shocked the globe once more.

Just as everyone in the world felt that Great Xia was going to have a fight against Silver Hand in Morocco Province, Great Xia suddenly swung its spear and started four country wars.

Hence, Great Xia was clearly not thinking about keeping Morocco.

The truth was just that. When the war matters on the 22nd day ended, Mulan Yue led the last batch of officials to leave and teleport back to Shanhai City, awaiting arrangements from the Imperial Court.

The West Africa Legion corps left the 3rd and 4th legions to defend Jidian City while the other three were thrown into the Somalia.

3rd month, 23rd day, the Alliance Army smoothly took down Morocco.

Regretfully, on the way to Rabat, the Morocco King was unfortunately killed by Great Xia soldiers and did not manage to reestablish his country.

Anyone could see who the so-called Great Xia remaining soldiers were…

Silver Hand was not so generous to give up Morocco Province to an NPC after spending so much to take it down. From the start, it was not going to work.

After the battle, as for who the Morocco Province belonged to, Silver Hand was really controlled, and they did not all fight for it.

For the organization to survive for hundreds of years, they had their own ways.

Before the war, the Silver Hand had internally decided on what to do with the province. Simply put, the province would be handled by the Spanish and 70% of the taxes would go to the organization.

For Silver Hand to work on the global scale, it needed large amounts of financial support. Before which, the expenditure was paid by the own Lords. Now, with shared territory, the situation naturally becomes different.

The remaining 30% was the profits for Spain. After considering the daily expenses, it would not be much. Especially once the Alliance Army saw the empty treasury when they entered Rabat, which caused them a headache.

In a short half a month, all the essence of Morocco was removed, and only an empty burden was left for Silver Hand.

Under Mulan Yue’s leadership, Chinese culture had taken root in Morocco. Now, to suddenly be ruled by the Spanish, the people would not be happy.

For the Spanish to get on the right path in Morocco Province, they would have to spend a lot of effort and resources.

The part that made Spanish Lord Casillas feel like a bone was in his throat was Jidian City. After they took down Morocco Province, they tried attack Jidian City.

The result was that they tried for a morning before totally giving up.

Without mentioning the disturbances of the magic-powered submarine and the overpowered performance of the combat puppets, just the three thousand cannons alone posed a huge problem.

After one round of firing, no ship dared to get close.

“How is that even a city? It is basically a super cannon.” No matter how strong the Alliance Army was, they did not dare to attack while braving such cannon fire.

Such losses were not something the Alliance Army could bear.

Such an outcome not only made it uncomfortable for Casillas, but it also stunned the higher ups of Silver Hand. Thinking about it, they all did so much, but they did not get any practical benefits.

“Great Xia still has a presence here in the Mediterranean Ocean. We tried so hard, yet we only got one piece of land in Africa?”
