Chapter 989: Anshi's Rebellion

Li Hongzhang has been in charge of preparing for the construction of the Sailor School for two months, and Beihai City has specially set aside a piece of land covering an area of 100 acres for the construction of the school, and so far it has only built a framework.

Coupled with the system update, the construction progress will slow down further.

This is just a hardware problem, and the more headache is the allocation of teachers. In ancient China, there was a shortage of naval generals, and the study of naval warfare was rarely involved, and it was difficult to find a group of qualified instructors.

However, the Sailor Academy is the core of reshaping the navy, which is related to the improvement of the overall combat quality of the navy. Ouyang Shuo convened the admirals to discuss this time, and also asked them to recommend some talents to teach in the Sailor Academy.

Since the establishment of the Great Xia Navy, it has experienced more than 100 naval battles of all sizes, and has tempered a group of outstanding and thoughtful young sailor generals on the battlefield, and has become the best instructor candidate in the Sailor Academy.

"Don't be reluctant to let people go, today you send an instructor to the Sailor Academy, and tomorrow the Sailor Academy will be able to send ten or a hundred outstanding students to the fleet." Ouyang Shuo said to Shi Lang and other generals like this.

The king has instructed like this, and these naval bigwigs can only endure the pain of love. Otherwise, Li Hongzhang alone, who has just arrived and has the title of a naval minister, will not be able to cope with these naval giants.

In addition to selecting instructors within the fleet, Ouyang Shuo also entrusted organizations such as the Black Snake Guard, Honglu Temple, and the Three Great Imperial Merchants to take advantage of overseas operations to poach people in Western countries.

With a lot of money, and with the prestige of Daxia, it can still attract some foreign elite talents.

Great Xia is tolerant of all rivers, and being able to put a foreign general like Álvaro in such a key position as the admiral of the Atlantic Fleet is enough to dispel the doubts of those Western generals.

For some diehards, who are indeed very talented, Ouyang Shuo even secretly instructed the black snake, "Even if it is a hard tie, it will be tied to this king to Daxia." ”

As long as you come, you are not afraid not to give in.

For the construction of the Sailor Academy, Ouyang Shuo also took great pains.

This is also something that cannot be helped, the foundation of the ancient Chinese navy is too weak, and Great Xia is destined to compete directly with the maritime powers, in order to shorten the gap, Ouyang Shuo can only make this decision.

In the next few days, centering on major issues such as the construction of the naval base, the preparation of the naval academy, and the adjustment of the navy's establishment, the 10 generals gathered together to discuss the navy's development plan.

Many times, Ouyang Shuo will personally come to listen, these generals are indeed not general, and many suggestions and ideas often make Ouyang Shuo feel refreshed.

As the discussion deepened, a grand blueprint depicting the future development prospects of the navy was gradually taking shape, and every general involved in it was full of enthusiasm and high morale.

They seem to foresee a mighty Imperial Navy galloping across the global oceans.

Ten generals enter and leave the summer palace every day, which naturally attracts the attention of people with intentions, and soon, the news that Daxia has convened the admiral to discuss the meeting quietly spread in China.

Even some inconsequential issues have been dug up.

Of course, this is the result of Ouyang Shuo's deliberate revelations, Da Xia really wants to discuss matters in secret, with the vigilance of the royal city, the strictness of the summer palace, and the secrecy of the meeting, how can outsiders detect it.

Ouyang Shuo just wanted to use this to send a signal to the outside world that the Great Xia target was outside and not inside.

Sure enough, as soon as the news came out, the players in China quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and after seeing the "professional analysis" of the media, everyone gradually reassured that there should be no civil war in China before the start of the national war.

"Unanimous to the outside!" It has become the slogan of players in China.

The most intuitive reaction is that in the voting for the leader of the national war on the forum, Ouyang Shuo's votes soared, breaking through the 10 million mark in just two days.

…………

Kyoto Province, Handan City.

"Is the old fox making a noise, or is he really preparing to expand overseas territories on a large scale?" The information received by [Emperor Feng] was more detailed than that spread on the forum, but the more this was the case, the more uneasy Di Chen became.

This is called being bitten by a snake once and being afraid of the well rope for ten years.

The peerless Fenghua saw it thoroughly, and said: "If Ouyang Shuo didn't want to lose the support of adventurous players, he wouldn't have released such fake news at such a sensitive moment. ”

"That's the same, I'm a fan of the authorities." Great Xia's attitude towards the [Yanhuang League] is directly related to the final implementation of Plan Z, so it is no wonder that Emperor Chen suffers from gains and losses.

Fortunately, the recent developments have been greatly beneficial to the [Yanhuang Alliance].

As soon as the national war came out, the [Yanhuang League] escaped and had enough time to implement Plan Z. At the auction, I unexpectedly got the [Meritorious Charm], which shortened the preparation time.

Everything is moving in a good direction.

"It's going to be fine."

Di Chen looked out the window, full of confidence.

………

Annam District, Hai Phong City.

Although he has long unified Annam, the lord of Haiphong City, Nguyen Tianque, is not living a comfortable life, and the source of all unhappiness is the neighbor of Haiphong City, the Great Xia Dynasty.

Ouyang Shuo's second ocean voyage, a Trans-Pacific Trade Partnership Cooperation Framework, tied Johor, Siam, Pi and Mud to the Chariot of Bactria with both soft and hard measures.

In the Indian Ocean, another hard lesson was given to the Padang fleet of the Javanese state.

The serial tricks of Daxia have caused ASEAN, which has gradually become one, to fall into division again, and even Bi Van Lie, the lord of the Zhenla Kingdom, has many complaints about Ruan Tianque.

Once again, the shadow of discord hangs over ASEAN.

But Ruan Tianque is really unwilling, if there is no ASEAN as a backing, Annan, who lives next to Daxia, will sooner or later become a piece of meat in Daxia's mouth and become the next Somalia.

There is an old Chinese saying: on the side of the couch, you will not allow others to snore.

At this moment, the secret agent lurking in China suddenly came with information, saying that Daxia was convening the admiral to discuss how not to make Ruan Tianque's heart tremble.

Ruan Tianque frowned, and said to his general, Li Li, who is also a famous general in Annan: "The intention of Daxia to convene the navy is already obvious, and we are afraid that we will bear the brunt." This battle is inevitable after all. ”

Li Li is a middle-aged general, and he has also been the king of Annam in history, with a domineering spirit, and said: "Since it is inevitable, let's actively prepare for war." If we really want to fight, we may not be afraid of them. ”

In the process of unifying Annam, Haiphong City also expanded its territorial army, and now has 300,000 regular troops, including the 800,000 forbidden troops in Wangcheng Hanoi, a total of 1.1 million troops.

If you count the Inhuman troops, the total strength can be doubled again, no wonder Li Li is full of confidence.

Li Li's eyes were only on Annan, but Ruan Tianque wanted to use external forces, Annan was close to Nanzhang and Zhenla, his lips were cold and his teeth were cold, once Annan was in trouble, they couldn't stand idly by.

Perhaps it is the heaven that does not destroy Annan, Gaia updated this time and launched a global alliance system, and Haiphong City formed an alliance with Nanzhang, Chenla, Luzon and Java at the first time.

In this battle, Annan was not without the strength of a war.

"If this battle is inevitable after all, then come on!" Ruan Tianque clenched his fists.

************

The situation in the outside world is changing, but Daxia does not move, and holds a naval meeting in a step-by-step manner.

This time, it was not easy to bring together the 10 admirals to discuss not only the development strategy of the navy, but also to discuss in detail the operational objectives of Gaia in the next five years.

Needless to say, the Royal Fleet and the Yashan Fleet, the key battle of Gaia's five years was to cooperate with the dynastic army and launch a war against Annam.

Naturally, the Litoral Fleet focused its main efforts on the national battle in June.

In addition to attacking Hawaii, the Pacific Fleet also had to complete the ocean-going voyage to South America and open up trade routes.

The target of the Indian Ocean Fleet is the Lion State.

The Lion Nation is rich in gemstones and is known as the "Pearl of the Indian Ocean" and is an important transit point on the Indian Ocean shipping route, with a very important strategic location.

The most important thing is that the Lion Kingdom and Tianzhu are only separated by a Baoke Strait, and the first group of outsiders on the island are the Sinhalese from Tianzhu, which can be said to be in the same lineage.

For the Lion Country, Lord Tianzhu is afraid that he has been coveting it for a long time.

In terms of population and territory, Tianzhu is comparable to China, and is one of the giants in Asia. It is foreseeable that if the Great Xia Indian Ocean Fleet wants to take down the Lion Country, there will be a fierce battle.

The goal of the Atlantic Fleet was to include South Africa as a vassal state of Bactria and then use the triangle of Morocco, Somalia and South Africa as nodes to gradually penetrate the influence of Bactria into the African continent.

It can be said that the tasks of each fleet are not clear, and they need to be coordinated as a whole.

Just as the naval conference was in full swing, on 12 January, a system announcement suddenly sounded.

"System announcement: All the territories in China have been promoted to first-class counties, triggering the campaign system, and the eighth battle [Anshi Rebellion] will be officially opened in three days, so stay tuned. Friendly reminder: Anshi Rebellion is a non-mandatory campaign scenario mission, and only territories promoted to first-class county towns are eligible to sign up. ”

……

The last territory in China to be promoted to a first-class county town was Shura City, which was the city of Shura.

Originally, the trigger condition for this battle was supposed to be the promotion of ten first-class county towns, but there were only eight territories left in China, and Gaia could only flexibly adjust the trigger conditions.

I don't know what the trigger conditions for the next campaign will be, Gaia.

Gaia has a rule that the country that triggers the campaign must have at least two lieges, and if one liege dominates the country, as is the case with the ASEAN countries, the campaign will be automatically terminated.

The essence of the battle is the confrontation between lords, and Gaia will not turn the battle into a one-man show in a certain territory, let alone let the campaign map become a battlefield for lords to earn merit points.

…………

When it comes to the Anshi Rebellion, it can be described as a household name.

To put it simply, the Anshi Rebellion was a rebellion war launched by An Lushan and Shi Siming against the Tang Dynasty from the end of Tang Xuanzong to the early years of Tang Dynasty Sect, which lasted for eight years.

This battle was a turning point in the Tang Dynasty's decline from prosperity to decline, prompting the Tang Dynasty to begin to have a situation of separating feudal towns. Some people even jokingly said that this was a turning point for the Central Plains Dynasty to weaken the foreign tribes in the north.

"Anshi Rebellion? That's where it gets interesting. Ouyang Shuo smiled slightly.
