Chapter 1066: Sneak Attacking Luzon Island

Translator:?ryangohsff?Editor:?Nora

After receiving the first-hand information regarding the assassination of Duan Zhengchun from Blood Sword, Ouyang Shuo needed to consider how to use this information as chips to negotiate with Duan Yu.

Duan Zhengchun was willing to yield but that did not mean that Duan Yu was going to as well.

Of course, without Great Xia supporting him, Duan Yu would not be able to ascend. Now, it was up to him to plan the protection of the Duan family whilst also ensuring that Great Xia took control of Dali.

Ouyang Shuo passed this on to a vote in the Cabinet, and he would make a decision when he returned.

...

6th month, 28th day, Edo.

Ouyang Shuo finally decided to return to the Capital City. Weirdly, he did not choose to teleport. Instead, he chose to travel back along with the Emperor Squadron and the Yashan Squadron.

Apart from the two squadrons, the Leopard Legion Corps as well as the Tiger Legion Corps 1st legion followed along.

The City Protection Legion Corps 1st legion temporarily remaining in Yingzhou Prefecture. Whilst the Privy Court completed the reorganization of the Yingzhou formation, the legion would be in charge of the defenses of the prefecture.

The Pacific Squadron naturally remained too.

At 9 AM, the huge squadron set off from Edo and went down south riding the waves.

It was already the 7th month, 1st day when they passed the Yizhou Straits. The country war month had come to an end, and all relevant buffs and restrictions were removed.

The world would welcome a temporary peaceful period.

The winners were busy occupying their new land while the losers were long gone from the wilderness.

As a result, no one felt that any territory would choose to start a country war right after the month ended.

The world had entered a half relaxed state, including Luzon. Ouyang Shuo recognized that point and decided to attack Luzon right when they felt that it was impossible.

...

7th month, 2nd day, Laoag.

Luzon was mainly made up of the Luzon island, Visayas, and Mindanao. Luzon was in the north while Visayas was in the middle of the two.

Luzon on the north side was the largest with the biggest population. It was the most economically prosperous island, and it produced rice and coconuts. The Luzon cigar was famous around the world.

Imperial City Manila was located on the south tip of Luzon island. Laoag was located at the north.

In ancient times, Luzon Island was a small country and was called Luzon. Since the Song and Yuan periods, Chinese merchant ships often came over to trade.

During the Ming Dynasty, Luzon had a big Luzon and a small Luzon. Since the 1571 to the 1898, Luzon island was occupied by the Spanish, which was why it was called small Luzon while big Luzon was the entire Luzon country occupied by the Spanish.

As an ocean city, Laoag in the morning slowly woke up, especially the pier as ships started to go out to sea to fish.

As the country war month had just ended, Luzon was uninvolved. Naturally, the civilians escaped all trouble. Not experiencing war, the entire city appeared really peaceful and quiet.

As the breeze blew across the cities and alleys, the civilians slowly woke up.

At this very moment, warships appeared at the front of the port. The unique blue ocean dragon flags of the Great Xia navy along with the white masts moved toward the rising sun, fluttering in the wind.

As it got closer to the port, the squadron picked up speed.

Before the civilians could even react, the vanguard forces charged into the port.

‘Hong! Hong! Hong!’

The sudden cannon fire broke the peace and quiet of the city, waking people up from their sleep.

“What happened?”

People hurried out of their beds, rushing anxiously out to the streets to check out what was going on without even washing up.

“It’s cannon fire coming from the pier,” someone said.

“Are they pirates?”

The civilians were at a lost. They, who had never been through a war, panicked.

Laoag city Lord had already awakened and gotten intel about the pier being shot, “Quick, go investigate whether they are pirates or an enemy.”

The city Lord was still really calm.

However, calmness could not save Laoag. Before they could find a clear answer, the Leopard Legion Corps had smoothly disembarked under the orders of Han Xin.

The huge army charged into the city without much resistance, quickly taking control.

Following which, Ouyang Shuo brought the Divine Martial Guards into the City Lord’s Manor. Han Xin did not stay, ordering the Leopard Legion Corps to spread out with Laoag as the center to attack the surrounding territories.

The 1st legion of the Tiger Legion Corps remained in Laoag.

Within the City Lord’s Manor, Ouyang Shuo took out the teleportation talisman he had just gotten and chose to use it. Along with a blue light that flashed across, a mysterious teleportation formation appeared on the square.

With this, Great Xia had a bridge to Luzon and could teleport over an army at any moment to take it down. This was much easier than fighting an outright war from the seas.

Along with the teleportation formation opening, the Divine Martial Guards brought Ouyang Shuo’s decree back to Shanhai City. He ordered the Cabinet to move a batch of officials to take over the city to maintain order.

Luckily, when he left Edo, he had already informed the Cabinet in advance. If not, they would have had their hands full. During the country war period, Great Xia expanded their territory, sending huge amounts of officials to Korea, Zhenla, Nanzhang, and Yingzhou. Now that they needed to assist Luzon as well, they were in fact facing some problems.

The sudden Battle of Luzon went unexpectedly smoothly.

Before the squadron arrived at the port, in truth, they had already engaged with the 1st division of the Luzon squadron placed on the north. The squadron that was not prepared could not return fire in front of the Great Xia Squadron.

In less than two hours, the 1st division was wiped out.

At that moment, the Luzon players who were sleeping received a System Notification.

“System Notification: China Region Lord Qiyue Wuqi starts a country war, Luzon enters country war mode, imperial city Manila enters level 2 state of emergency.”

...

“System Notification: Luzon enters country war mode, based on country war rules, imperial city teleportation with other territory teleportation formations are cut off, players are unable to revive when they die.”

...

Probably at this moment, the Luzon players had started to gather toward the north.

As they used the squadron returning back as a cover, and it was also a special time because the country war month had just ended, taking down Laoag was not difficult.

The difficult part was how to keep it.

If they let Great Xia take a huge bite out of Luzon, even if Luzon Lord Ma Ding could take it, the eight million players could not. They would stop at nothing to take Laoag back.

Without the teleportation formation, Ouyang Shuo definitely would not dare to infuriate Luzon at this moment.

Even after opening up the cross-country teleportation formation, Ouyang Shuo did not expect to take down the entire Luzon through this battle. They had just been through a huge country war, and the army was really exhausted.

As long as they defended Laoag, it would count as their victory.

Han Xin led the troops to sweep the territories, but it was not to expand their territory. Rather, he had two goals. First, to pillage grain. Secondly, to pillage artisans and civilians.

With grain, the army could stay in Laoag for a long time.

As for the artisans and the civilians, they were naturally used to strengthen the defenses of Laoag and make it into a castle. action

The bunch of officials that the Cabinet sent were instantly sent to work.

With the help of the 1st legion of the Tiger Legion Corps, a portion of the civilians were sent out of the city to cut down all the forests and even set fire to the wild grass.

Outside of Laoag, there was nowhere to hide.

The wood cut down and the stone gathered were sent to the city and amassed. They would be used as city defense resources or used to strengthen the defense.

The workshops within the city also started to work to produce arrows.

Apart from that, Ouyang Shuo also made use of the squadron to bring a bunch of weapons and grain from Edo to help the army get past the hardest start.

The future Laoag City would be under military control.

In the end, this was a super barrack that was in charge of fighting against Luzon.

After opening up the cross-country teleportation formation, Ouyang Shuo informed allied guilds and asked them to send players who liked to PK over to help.

One could foresee that before Great Xia sent large amounts of troops to attack Luzon, there would be huge PK battles outside Laoag at every moment.

This would become a hotspot for PK maniacs.

...

The highly effective administrative system of Great Xia was on full display in Laoag.

Without Ouyang Shuo opening his mouth, in just two days, everything headed onto the right path. On the outside, the Han Xin led Leopard Legion Corps had engaged with the Luzon vanguard forces.

Although they did not want to fully invade Luzon at this moment, Ouyang Shuo did not mind the Leopard Legion Corps fighting them. They could crush the enemy’s confidence and let them see the strength of the Great Xia Army.

The engagement at the front and the construction of the backlines. Everything proceeded well.

After receiving Ouyang Shuo’s request, Blood Romance and the others were really passionate. At the same time, they were amazed by Ouyang Shuo’s craziness as they sent out PK squads to assist.

When the China region players got the news that Great Xia actually built a cross country teleportation formation, some PK maniacs were excited. Without Ouyang Shuo summoning them, they applied to teleport over.

Ouyang Shuo naturally welcomed all of them.

In a short few days, Laoag gathered up a hundred thousand PK maniacs.

The huge number of players swarming in put a large burden on Laoag’s logistics. Ouyang Shuo immediately ordered Annan Province and Qiongzhou Prefecture to send grain over.

At the same time, he welcomed the Great Xia chambers of commerce to come over to trade.

To ensure the safety of the nearby ocean region, the Yashan Squadron housed two divisions in the port, which was enough to ensure the safety of the traveling ships.

Furthermore, with the Indian Ocean squadron ready to help, the Luzon squadron definitely would not have the confidence to sneak attack Laoag.

7th month, 7th day, seeing Laoag slowly stabilize, Ouyang Shuo left Han Xin to take charge while he returned to Shanhai City under the protection of the Emperor Squadron.

The 1st legion of the Tiger Legion Corps would also return to their camp.
