Chapter 1110 TWP Turned Out
Just when Daxia officially sent troops to attack the Kingdom of Jin, news that was unfavorable to Daxia came from overseas one after another.
On September 21st, Bangalore City, the largest territory in the Tianzhu District, was successfully promoted to the Maurya Dynasty. As soon as it was promoted, the Lion Kingdom adjacent to the Tianzhu District announced that it would belong to the Maurya Dynasty and become a county under the Maurya Dynasty.
The Lion Country, also known as Ceylon and Sri Lanka, is a tropical island country located in the Indian Ocean, at the southern tip of the South Asian subcontinent, facing the Indian Peninsula across the Palk Strait in the northwest.
The country's biggest advantage lies in its mining industry and geographical location. It is an island rich in gemstones. It is one of the top five gemstone producing countries in the world. It is known as the "Gem Island". Ruby, sapphire and cat's eye are the most famous.
The Lion Kingdom means "paradise" or "bright and rich land" in Sinhala. It has the reputation of "jewel kingdom" and "pearl of the Indian Ocean". It was considered the most beautiful island by Marco Polo.
In the 5th century BC, the Sinhalese migrated from Tianzhu to the Lion Kingdom.
In 247 BC, King Ashoka of the Mauryan Dynasty in Tianzhu sent his son to the island. Since then, the Sinhalese abandoned Brahmanism and converted to Buddhism. Around 311, the tooth of the Buddha was introduced from Tianzhu to the Lion Kingdom.
It can be seen from this that the Lion Kingdom has a deep relationship with Tianzhu, and it is normal to choose to belong to the Maurya Dynasty.
Prior to this, Lion Country was an important supply point in the Indian Ocean section of the Great Xia route. Ouyang Shuo also tried to send a mission to establish a closer relationship with the Lion Kingdom.
It's just that the Lion Kingdom has not responded positively.
If he forcibly attacks the Lion Kingdom, Ouyang Shuo has a lot of worries considering the Tianzhu District, which is very close to him. Unexpectedly, the Lion Kingdom had already made up its mind to take shelter of the Maurya Dynasty.
In this way, it is a big hidden danger to the Great Xia Route.
Once the Lion Kingdom does not cooperate, or the Maurya Dynasty shows hostility to Daxia, hundreds of merchant ships every day will not be able to obtain a stable supply point in the vast Indian Ocean.
It will be a major blow to Daxia's ocean trade.
Just as Ouyang Shuo was preparing to send an envoy to the Maurya Dynasty to inquire about the other party's attitude, the Dawson Dynasty, who was far away across the ocean, finally bared its fangs and made a move against Daxia.
September 23rd, an ordinary day.
On this day, the Dawson Dynasty, the Gondor Dynasty, the Romanov Dynasty, the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Arabian Empire, the Persian Empire, the Germanic Dynasty, the Gaul Dynasty and the newly established Maurya Dynasty, together with more than thirty large territories, published A joint declaration to jointly form a "global trade partnership", referred to as TWP.
Leading the charge is Jack's Dawson dynasty.
According to the declaration, in order to stimulate global trade growth and promote trade globalization, TWP members will implement mutually beneficial policies such as zero tariffs and visa exemptions.
There is no doubt that this is a global trade organization above the "Trans-Mediterranean Trade Partnership Agreement" and "Trans-Pacific Trade Partnership Agreement" led by Daxia.
Even more than half of the members of the two major agreements have joined the TWP.
Especially the Mediterranean territories, although they dare not openly withdraw from the "Trans-Mediterranean Trade Partnership Agreement", after joining the TWP, they will definitely weaken their trade with Daxia spontaneously.
This is a fatal blow to Daxia's ocean trade.
And as the Maurya Dynasty joined TWP, one can imagine its attitude towards Daxia, Ouyang Shuo simply canceled the missions that were going to the Maurya Dynasty.
A cloud of dark clouds is covering the sky of Daxia, and the wind and rain are about to come.
…………
Shanhai City, Summer Palace.
In the imperial study room, Jiang Shang, the chief assistant of the cabinet, Zhang Liang, the elder of the cabinet and the senior scholar of the cabinet, Fan Li, the minister of finance, and Du Ruhui, the minister of military affairs, got the imperial edict and gathered here to discuss major issues.
Ouyang Shuo said straight to the point: "There is no need to deny it. The facts are already in front of us. TWP is a trade card played by Silver Hand to suppress us. It hits the vital point and needs to be dealt with carefully."
Reminiscent of the trade blockade against Dazhou that Daxia had just ended, Ouyang Shuo smiled wryly in his heart, "Tit for tat. As soon as Daxia made a move, the Silver Hand counterattacked."
It is certainly not easy for the Silver Hand to last for hundreds of years.
With the intensification of global territorial annexation, the Silver Hand, which was consciously divided into individual small units by Gaia, is gathering together at an accelerated rate, forming a joint force again, and bursting out with shocking power.
TWP is nothing more than an attempt by them.
In the future, with the help of members all over the world, the Silver Hand will definitely do other earth-shattering events, and no matter what the Silver Hand does, Daxia will bear the brunt of it.
Because the current Great Xia has already become an obstacle to the rise of the Silver Hand in the game world.
"For Daxia, the arduous challenge has just begun." Ouyang Shuo judged like this, and when he thought of this, he felt a surge of enthusiasm in his heart, full of ambition.
Gaia's five years of Great Xia were invincible and invincible.
This seems to give people an illusion that Da Xia has already stood at the pinnacle of the game world, and no one can shake and surpass him. "It's time to wake up now!" Ouyang Shuo looked at Jiang Shang and the others, and warned secretly: "Recently, there is a sense of arrogance in the court, which makes me very worried."
That's right, Daxia's ability to overcome a strong enemy depends on the fact that there are no opponents in the Huaxia District. Even the old opponent Da Zhou has been suppressed by Daxia. How can we not make people feel underestimated? !
Up and down the court, people's hearts are floating.
Jiang Shang and the others looked at each other, nodded in unison, then got up together and bowed to Ouyang Shuo: "I can't share the king's worries. It's our negligence as ministers. Please punish the king."
The atmosphere in the court is not correct, and the cabinet should take the first responsibility.
As the chief assistant of the cabinet, Jiang Shang is naturally to blame, and he will be the first to be held accountable.
Ouyang Shuo waved his hands, "Get up. This unhealthy wind is not a result of a day, and I ask you to be more vigilant. You should pour more cold water at ordinary times, and don't let this wind blow."
This move by the Silver Hand is not all bad for Da Xia.
"promise!"
"Let's get down to business." Ouyang Shuo's expression became solemn, "Ocean-sea trade has become one of the lifeblood of the dynasty, and major twists and turns are absolutely not allowed. Now that the TWP has just been established, how it will affect the dynasty's trade is yet to be determined by the Ministry of Finance. further evaluation."
"The top priority before us is how to forcefully fight back against TWP, and declare and maintain Great Xia's unchallenged maritime supremacy. Only in this way can we stabilize allies and partners, especially those who are vacillating, from Into the TWP camp."
When hegemony is challenged, the best response is naturally war.
