June 19, Shanhai City.

During the three-day preparation time for the battle, Ouyang Shuo was not only making various preparations for participating in the Battle of Weishui, but also always paying attention to the negotiation process in the Mediterranean.

Under the mediation of Queen Caria, and Violet made a promise on behalf of the Bactrian dynasty that the Atlantic Fleet would not cross the Mediterranean, the suspended negotiation process was finally restarted.

It was only in the terms of negotiation that the Mediterranean lords became more and more demanding, which made Violet angry.

Ouyang Shuo sent a letter to Violet to calm her down, and there was no need to negotiate a result immediately, it was better to drag it out like this and turn it into a marathon negotiation.

At present, Alvaro has led the fourth and fifth formations of the Atlantic Fleet to set off from the Atlantic Ocean and begin to sail around the African continent, crossing the Cape of Good Hope and opening up new routes.

The moment the Atlantic Fleet appeared in the Gulf of Aden was the moment when the bargaining chips of the two sides reversed.

Therefore, Ouyang Shuo was not in a hurry at all.

In three days, there was another major event in Shanhai City.

Just yesterday, the bidding meeting for the qualifications of the Rabat Satellite Town Shou Guild led by the Commerce Department finally came to an end, and the winning bidder was a guild alliance formed by five large guilds in Xianyang Wangcheng.

The five guilds were integrated into the [Jiangshan League], and on the condition of 4 million gold coins, 7% of the equity of the [Jiangshan League] and 50% of the tax revenue of the satellite city, they obtained the qualification of the town guard guild, and became another super guild in China.

According to the usual practice, at the request of the [Jiangshan League], the Great Xia Dynasty transferred 2% of the equity of the Four Seas Money Village to the [Jiangshan League] at a price of three million gold coins.

Compared with the equity when the first fundraising was raised, the equity of Sihai Qian Zhuang has appreciated by 50%.

I think that the [Bloody Mercenary Group] entrenched in Xianyang is too powerful, and the Xianyang Guild has no choice but to choose to go overseas and seek other development.

Of course, for the [Jiangshan League], taking a step back may be a vast sky.

By the second half of Gaia's fourth year, the Wilderness Territory oligarchs were emerging, and the mergers and reorganizations between guilds were intensifying, and as the agglomeration effect of the satellite cities was further strengthened, the guild giants showed more and more dominance.

For other guilds, a strong reorganization is a way to stand out.

The premise is to increase the quota of satellite cities.

In the current game environment, guilds that do not have satellite town guard qualifications, no matter how huge the scale, have to rely on people's breath, and are feared by the town guard guild, and it is difficult to really rise.

There are only two ways to add a new satellite city, one is to promote the territory to the capital, and the other is to destroy the country. As for the capital, there seems to be no hope for anyone at the moment, so they can only look forward to the destruction of the country.

It is precisely because of this that there have been many guilds that have recently shown favor to the Great Xia Dynasty. Those guilds that failed to bid also booked their tickets for the next auction early.

Players in China don't know that the Great Xia Dynasty is the real national war giant.

Ouyang Shuo was indifferent to this, he was no longer interested in playing any alliance game with these guilds, and wanted to win the qualification of the town guard guild? Simple, exchange real money for it.

…………

As early as a few months ago, Ouyang Shuo had been doing his homework on the Battle of Weishui, and he had thoroughly studied this battle and had a deep understanding of the causes and consequences.

The "Huangting Inner Scene Sutra" that Ouyang Shuo wanted to get was the highest reward of the Eastern Jin Dynasty camp. Therefore, Ouyang Shuo had no choice but to choose the Eastern Jin camp.

If this were not the case, Ouyang Shuo would have wanted to choose the former Qin camp and make another counterattack.

In Ouyang Shuo's opinion, if the Inhuman Legion joins, the former Qin camp has a lot to do. As long as the situation is stabilized and the situation does not collapse, in front of the Former Qin army, which has an absolute superiority in strength, the Eastern Jin Dynasty is not easy to fight.

Fortunately, Phoenix Prisoner and the others were interesting enough to learn that Ouyang Shuo had chosen the Eastern Jin Dynasty camp, and without saying a word, they followed one by one and chose the camp and fought side by side.

Ouyang Shuo has already spoken on the forum, making his camp choice public.

If the [Yanhuang League] also chose the Eastern Jin camp, then this battle would be too boring. Ouyang Shuo let out his words, no matter whether Di Chen and the others wanted it or not, they could only choose the former Qin camp.

As for how the other lords were chosen, Ouyang Shuo didn't care much.

Although some people on the forum interpreted that as the confrontation between the Great Xia Dynasty and the [Yanhuang League] became more and more intense, the [Northern Sichuan City-State] and the [Southern Hunan City-State] in the cracks and whirlpools will also split internally and start a new round of standing, and the [Battle of Huangshui] is an examination room to review the "ingredients" of the lords.

Ouyang Shuo scoffed at this.

The player's idea is a little too simple, it is undeniable that the Great Xia Dynasty and the [Yanhuang League] have buried a lot of dark chess pieces in the two major city-states, but no one will be stupid enough to expose these chess pieces in the battle.

If anyone really judges the opponent's chess pieces through the camp selection of the battle, I am afraid that they will suffer a big loss.

At present, the battle in the wilderness of China has a faint feeling of princes competing for hegemony, and the intricacies and treacherous clouds are not something that ordinary players can speculate and interpret.

Before you know it, a new group of "elites" has been born in the game, standing out from the crowd.

…………

At nine o'clock in the morning, the system announcement sounded on time.

"System announcement: In 383 AD, the former Qin Emperor Fu Jian poured a million troops to the south to conquer the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and finally returned defeated, the dynasty collapsed, and the seventh epic battle, the Battle of Weishui, officially began!"

Check the conditions for participating in the battle, designate the participating troops, and choose a faction......

Of the 100,000 troops of the Great Xia Dynasty this time, Ouyang Shuo chose the second legion of the Praetorian Guard, the first formation of the Yashan Fleet, the Marine Corps directly under the Navy Headquarters, plus three thousand divine guards and an air flying team, basically using the 100,000 reference quota to the extreme.

The Marine Corps, which is directly under the Navy Command, recently concluded its training course at the special operations training base and officially entered the stage of actual combat exercises.

This time, Ouyang Shuo took the Marines to participate in the war, which was also to give them a chance to fight.

The air flying team has become the standard equipment for the Great Xia Dynasty to participate in battles, even if it cannot effectively kill the enemy, at least it is not a reconnaissance sword.

After the setting was completed, a system prompt sound sounded in Ouyang Shuo's ears.

"System Prompt: Teleportation Begins!"

After a brief whirlwind, Ouyang Shuo and his party appeared on the battlefield of Weishui.

"System prompt: Players are welcome to come to the base camp of the Eastern Jin Dynasty camp - the military camp on the east bank of the river."

"The east bank of the river?"

Ouyang Shuo was stunned, according to the course of the war in history, if the base camp of the Eastern Jin Dynasty was in Weishui, then Gaia had crossed all the foreplay and directly deduced the battle of Weishui to the most critical step.

That is, the two armies are facing each other across the water, and a big war will break out at any time.

The water is also used as fertilizer water, the source is the general ridge between Feixi and Shou County, it is divided into two branches, it flows to the northwest, passes through two hundred miles, goes out of Shou County and enters the Huai River; Those who flow to the southeast are injected into Chaohu Lake.

The place where the battle broke out was the southeast tributary of the river, which was not very spacious. The surging river that poured down from the General Ridge rushed through and gradually subsided.

It is precisely in this way that the Eastern Jin Dynasty army can easily cross the river during the battle.

didn't have time to think about it, Ouyang Shuo completed the registration first as usual, and then joined Feng Prisoner and the others. In this teleportation, the Second Legion of the Praetorian Guard and the Shenwuwei appeared in the barracks, and the first formation of the Yashan Fleet, the Marine Corps, and the Air Flying Team appeared in the Huai River, stationed with the Eastern Jin Dynasty Naval Division.

Ouyang Shuo believed that Xiongba, even Wolf Warrior, Emperor Chen and others, might also bring the navy to help this time, so as not to be controlled by the Yashan fleet at once.

In the historical battle of Weishui, the role of water warfare was not very conspicuous. Because of the appearance of the Inhuman fleet in the game, I am afraid that it will present a different situation, and there are many more variables.

In a short time, the Inhuman Legions participating in the campaign were teleported to the campaign map one by one.

Just after Ouyang Shuo joined Feng Prisoner and the others, there were bursts of battle announcements in his ears.

"Battle Announcement: A total of thirty lords participated in the Battle of Weishui, with a total strength of 620,000. There were thirteen lords in the Eastern Jin camp, with a total strength of 370,000; There were a total of seventeen lords in the Former Qin camp, with a total strength of 400,000. ”

……

In the battle of the water, all the lords who qualified for the competition came, and none of them were absent.

The lords of a second-level county town have reached the second-class marquis, and they can lead 20,000 troops into the battle map, and they already have the capital to compete for the battle, so they are not afraid of being used as cannon fodder; Second, the competition in the wilderness intensifies, and the surviving lords are no longer willing to give up any opportunity to earn merit points.

Not only that, but even the total strength of the two camps is basically the same. The number of lords of the former Qin camp is relatively large, not because the [Yanhuang Alliance] is more popular, but because they have seven members of the alliance alone.

In contrast, the [Shanhai Alliance] now has only four members left.

Among the 370,000 troops in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the [Shanhai Alliance] army alone reached 190,000, more than half. Except for the siege lion, which brought pure infantry, the troops of the phoenix prisoner and the jaywood were mainly cavalry.

Similarly, the total strength of the [Yanhuang Alliance] is 200,000, which is just half of the former Qin Yiren Legion.

This also shows that the future battles are basically under the influence of the two alliances, and other lords must be attached to the wings of the two alliances if they want to get a piece of the pie in the battle.

"Campaign Announcement: Because the Eastern Jin Dynasty camp is weaker than the former Qin camp, according to the battle rules, the Eastern Jin Dynasty camp will automatically receive a 5% increase in the defense of the troops."

……

Because the forces of the two factions are almost the same, the buff effect is naturally greatly reduced. The 5% defense buff of the troops has little effect on the outcome of the war.

The only impact is estimated to be that the casualties of the Inhuman Legion on the side of the Eastern Jin Dynasty camp may be a little less.

"Battle announcement: According to the results of the title and merit value test, the representative of the Eastern Jin Dynasty camp is the duke. The representative of the former Qin camp is Emperor Chen, a first-class marquis. ”

……

At present, Emperor Chen is still the member of the [Yanhuang Alliance] with the most merit points, and has even opened up the distance from Chun Shenjun, faintly keeping pace with the phoenix.

Perhaps, Handan City has a real chance to become the second capital city in China.
