Chapter 852 – Atlantis’ Problem

4th month, 27th day, Jidian City.

Jidian City was built during the middle of the 8th month of the 3rd year of Gaia, and it has been half a year since then. The ruins that were engulfed in flames were now renewed to become a shining jewel of the Mediterranean.

After the first voyage ended, especially after opening up the teleportation formation in Jidian City, Shanhai City’s support for Jidian City had never ended. If they needed people, people were sent over, if they needed resources, resources were sent over.??U.p..dated by Novelfull.Com

At the current day, Jidian City was already a war castle, and the side of the castle facing the ocean was lined up with 200 P1 Type Cannons, which were enough to scare away everyone. Even if the Spanish Invincible Squadron attacked into the Gibraltar Straits, they could only back off and cower in the face of such firepower.

Towards the support of Shanhai City, Jidian City had repaid it. As the important chokepoint of the voyage trade route, Jidian City had earned over 200 thousand from trade tax.

Especially chambers of commerce like the Song Family, Bai Family Trading Corporation, and Cui Chamber of Commerce; they used the convenience of the teleportation formation to earn buckets of gold.

Due to the need to keep the matter a secret, Ouyang Shuo and his groups’ arrival did not shock many. Only Alvaro, the Jidian City Mayor, and Black Snake went over to receive him.

After a simple greeting, Ouyang Shuo entered the city manor and the Divine Martial Guards quietly took over the defensive duties. The City Protection Division of Jidian City was on alert on the outskirts.

After arriving in Jidian City, what Ouyang Shuo wanted to learn the most about was the Mediterranean Squadron.

In this attack on Morocco, the Mediterranean Squadron would play a hugely important role. Whether they would be able to fend off the Spanish Invincible Squadron or not, and to ensure their country destruction battle was not disrupted, would be the key to victory or defeat.

Luckily, Alvaro, this Spanish famous general, did not let Ouyang Shuo down.

Last year, when Ouyang Shuo left Jidian City, the Mediterranean Squadron was not unable to reach full scale due to the lack of manpower. Half a year had passed and the squadron had smoothly reached full scale.

The secret was in the pirates.

Alvaro followed and executed Ouyang Shuo’s pirate clearing strategy, leading the squadron into the Atlantic, killing various types of pirates, especially the Vikings who were boldly disturbing the Atlantic.

With that, not only did they protect the safety of the trade route, they also obtained a batch of fierce sailors and soldiers. The Mediterranean Squadron was made up of 1/4 of Vikings and half were originally pirates.

Luckily, Alvaro was a fierce and experience general, and only then did he manage to calm down and control the bunch.

Another change in the Mediterranean Squadron happened after Three Kingdoms General Lu Meng was appointed. The clash in eastern and western navy techniques and the merger of skills happened perfectly in the Mediterranean Squadron.

Alvaro’s attitude towards his assistant had changed from wary and defensive to one of admiration. Currently, the two had a close relationship.

Alvaro was really engrossed in how Lu Meng brought with him eastern tactics.

Similarly, Lu Meng was also a person who loved to learn. Seeing the more advanced western technologies and techniques, his eyes had been opened up.

The sparks formed through eastern and western knowledge merging made a great ideological platform for new ideas.

With the help of Admiral Zheng He, the two of them worked together to come up with a training manual that mixed eastern and western training methods to guide the entire navy.

After reviewing the Mediterranean Squadron, Ouyang Shuo felt more confident in the upcoming battle.

On the first day after reaching Jidian City, after reviewing the squadron, Ouyang Shuo spent the rest of his time talking to the officials. After the discussion, Ouyang Shuo had a clear understanding of the situation.

At night, Ouyang Shuo stayed alone in the reading room, closing his eyes and thinking.

Before coming, Ouyang Shuo was unsure about the Mediterranean strategy of the Great Xia Dynasty; he did not have a clear strategic plan.

The conversations during the day gave Ouyang Shuo a lot of inspiration and some ideas became clear. Combining it all together, he formed a certain strategic plan.

To use a sentence to describe it, it was, ‘High walls, father grain, slowly become king.’

4th month, 28th day, Ouyang Shuo who had made his mind up became more relaxed.

Under the protection of the Mediterranean Squadron, Ouyang Shuo quietly left Jidian City and went towards Atlantis City.

From the words of Black Snake, he learnt that Atlantis City was not having as good a time as it appeared.

As they were on the same side, the western Lords naturally wanted the technology of Atlantis and were willing to work with them.

The key was interests.

Kalia was a smart queen and knew that Atlantis having the technologies was the reason it was able to maintain its position in the Mediterranean. Hence, she would not release it on a large scale.

This caused conflicts with the western Lords.

No matter how wonderful a thing was, if one could not get it, one would not feel good about it. Not to mention that this was in a game where the law of the jungle reigned supreme.

Moreover, with how Atlantis City strongly supported Jidian City, it raised the unhappiness of the Lords. In their eyes, Atlantis City’s actions were a betrayal of civilization.

Being restricted by land, the city that did not really have a strong army had already become the target of ambitious players that wanted to swallow it.

However, Kalia did not mention this when she attended the coronation ceremony. Ouyang Shuo visiting Atlantis City was to help solve the problem for Kalia. … At 11 AM, the warship stopped at the port in Atlantis.

As this was a secret visit, furthermore there were many adventure gamemode players gathered from various Mediterranean countries, Ouyang Shuo disguised himself before sneaking into the palace.

Seeing Ouyang Shuo, Kalia was delighted.

However, the sharp Ouyang Shuo noticed that a few core members accompanying her showed unhappiness and wariness.

Seeing that, Ouyang Shuo had more and more confidence in his judgement.

After the simple greeting, Ouyang Shuo tossed out his idea, “Kalia, along with Vic City dropping out, the Mediterranean Alliance is lacking an important part. I think it’s time to disband it.”

Kalia’s expression changed, and she shook, “Why? Even without Vic City, I can still find other territories to fill the gap, why disband?” During the coronation ceremony, Kalia had dragged 10 Mediterranean Lords over so her words were true.

Ouyang Shuo pressed down his hands to signal for her to calm down, “Disbanding the alliance does not mean stopping our cooperation. The terms of the alliance are still effective.” Thinking for a while, Ouyang Shuo added, “This would not affect our private friendship.”

“Then why disband?” Kalia asked.

Ouyang Shuo voiced his thoughts, “You should understand that a neutral Atlantis City is the best and would not be threatened and chided. Only then can you stay tall and above all. And such an Atlantis City fits the interests of Xia Dynasty in the Mediterranean.”

When Kalia heard that, she kept silent and did not reply.

Kalia obviously understood that theory. Although Atlantis City was faced with a crisis, it did not lack allies to work with.

At the very least, Greece had an absolutely good impression of Atlantis.

There were only a few Lords that dared to attack Atlantis City. A large portion of them still held a neutral attitude.

The only thing was that the close relationship between them and Jidian City as well as the needless provocation of Silver Hand was what these allies could not understand.

Hence, it placed Atlantis in a really awkward situation.

Ouyang Shuo had seen through this point, so he decided to cut Atlantis City loose and not allow them to fall into a crisis just for Jidian City.

“Then what about Jidian City?” Kalia asked uneasily.

Ouyang Shuo smiled and said confidently, “I came over to solve that problem so do not worry.”

“Do not lie to me. Can you tell me about the specifics?” Kalia did not believe it.

When Ouyang Shuo heard that, he smiled and said nothing. He swept his eyes across the Atlantis core members around, using his actions to send a message.

Who knows whether there was anyone present bought by Silver Hand.

Ouyang Shuo was not going to take that risk.

Kalia understood, turning around, “You can back off!”

When the ministers saw that, they all said goodbye one by one. In truth, many of them had met Ouyang Shuo and knew that he was the savior of Atlantis.

Their wariness was only because of their worry for the future of Atlantis.

They thought that Ouyang Shuo had come to create problems for them. Who knew that the situation would turn out as so, making it really awkward for them.

These old fellows had stayed too long at the bottom of the ocean and lacked some knowledge of the real world, making them look really adorable.

Only after they all left did Ouyang Shuo tell her about his plan. If Ouyang Shuo could take down Morocco, it would be great news for Atlantis too.

The two of them had a round of discussions.

Regarding the attack on Morocco, Ouyang Shuo still needed the coordination of Kalia.
