Chapter 1310 – Flames of War Rise up in Africa Once More

After three months of intense fighting, the European continent was filled with solemn killing intent, seriousness, and a sense of tragedy. As the main battlefield, the Ottoman Dynasty was in tatters.

The stubbornness of the Ottoman Dynasty had greatly exceeded the predictions of the Alliance Army.

In this life or death battle, in the span of a short three months, the Ottoman Dynasty enlisted 400 thousand troops. Their overall strength increased instead of decreasing.

As time passed, the logistical pressure on the Alliance Army grew apparent.

The European battlefield fell to a standstill all of a sudden. At such a time, the Alliance Army hoped for the help of the Dawson Dynasty to conquer the Ottoman Dynasty with the smallest price possible.

If not, and more time passed, the Alliance Army would suffer heavy losses even if they won. If things went wrong, all the resources amassed by the European continent would be lost in this war.

However, the Dawson Dynasty had just taken a huge loss in South America. Not to mention losing the Columbia region, Great Xia was at their door in the Gulf of Mexico.

The current Jack was facing enough problems and was trying to obtain victory in North America. Where would he find the excess strength to help his European allies an Atlantic Ocean away?

This made things awkward.

The only aspect that made the Alliance Army happy was that the hidden threat of Great Xia did not truly want to enter the European battlefield. Even the North Africa legion corps were pushing forward unusually slowly in Algeria.

Although they did not understand why, they were happy.

It was under such circumstances that Great Xia, which was lying in wait, finally revealed its fangs.

7th month, 2nd day, the Great Xia North Africa legion corps that was deep in Algeria borders changed the course of action, suddenly becoming really mobile. They launched a relentless assault on the Spanish army in the region.

Due to the unexpected nature of the attack, the Spanish army was forced back in defeat.

Not only did the North Africa legion corps hold the numerical advantage, the individual strength of their soldiers were greater too. They were naturally unstoppable, and they swept up half of Algeria in less than a week.

7th month, 10th day, the North Africa legion corps arrived under Algiers City.

Although they moved in swiftly, they did not have grain concerns.

During the standoff, the Africa Governor-General House had gathered up a large quantity of grain from the Libya and Egypt provinces, sending an endless amount to the frontlines and amassing them at the surrounding cities.

With the North Africa legion corps exerting their strength, the grain transport group swiftly followed up, and they worked closely with one another.

Such highly efficient logistical management was a result of Great Xia’s full scale takeover of the Egypt Dynasty.

Three months had passed since Great Xia took over Egypt. With the hard work of the Governor-General House and the Provincial Governor offices, the Egypt and Libya provinces had slowly walked onto the right path.

Regardless of whether the civilians were willing or not, they had silently accepted the fact that their ruler had changed.

Along with the threat of the army and the kindness of the offices, the mindset of the people changed. They adapted to their new lives and did not think about creating any problems.

Order was restored.

For those who really could not accept it, the wrongdoers locked up in the jails were their best warning.

Africa Governor-General Mulan Yue loved to use both gentle and tough methods to rule Africa. Usually, this gentle young woman would walk the streets and chat with the people like a neighbor.

However, when they faced truly tough situations and needed to be decisive, she would not even frown.

From the time she managed Morocco Province, Mulan Yue’s name had spread out in Africa. After becoming the Governor-General, her fame had reached a new peak.

The African people called her the reincarnation of Hua Mulan and respected her greatly.

That was not without reason.

From the 4th to the 7th month, less than 100 riots happened in the three provinces. Large and small protest incidents went from the streets to become a group riot.  ( NovelFull )

Mulan Yue did not stop the protests. However, the offices did not show mercy if things got violent, and they would send out the bailiffs to crush it.

If the bailiffs were not enough, they sent the provincial garrison forces.

During the worst incident, she contacted the Africa warzone to send a proper army to quash it.

As such, the evil storm was slowly killed off.

The hotheaded Egyptian people slowly woke up. They knew that nothing good would come of them going against the Imperial Court, and they would even implicate their families.

On the contrary, if they recognized the Imperial Court’s rule, they would quickly realize that Great Xia’s internal politics were more efficient and fair.

Along with the Imperial Court building schools, hospitals, and roads, their lives greatly improved.

Along with the influx of a large number of merchants, their future lives would only get better.

Comparing the two, the choice was obvious.

After three months of transition, the threats in the various provinces were getting controlled. Along with the South America war ending, Ouyang Shuo decided to start the Africa war.

Africa warzone commander Baiqi understood Ouyang Shuo’s intentions.

With the Governor-General House as its back shield, the Africa warzone felt confident about launching a ferocious assault on their target. They would not need to worry about their back garden being on fire.

Just as the North Africa legion corps entered the west, the 4th and 5th legions of the Wolf legion corps went west along the shore, acting as their reserve force; they could be thrown in at any moment.

The Africa warzone was exerting its full strength.

…

Like the Battle of Columbia that had just ended, Great Xia’s every action could snatch the world’s attention and make them the focus of the world.

This matter was no exception.

The happiest party was naturally Azure Badge.

During the past three months, they had rushed Great Xia numerous times but to no avail. They waited and prayed, and finally, the Great Xia Army acted.

The moment the Great Xia Army moved, Azure Badge saw a chance of victory.

The Egypt army that had experienced a tough few months was stuck in the south of Spain. In front, there was an army intercepting them; behind, there was a lack of grain support. In the 6th month, they survived by scrounging the land.

If it were not for their toughness, they would have collapsed.

If Great Xia could conquer Algeria and Morocco, not only could they break the arm of the Spain Dynasty, but it could also open up the logistical supply line, which would grant the Egypt army a breath of new life.

As such, the European battlefield would welcome a change.

The trigger to these series of events was in the hands of Great Xia.

Although it made one feel helpless, that was the truth.

Some people would be happy, while others would be sad.

The saddest would have to be the Spain Dynasty.

The poor Spain was just played by the Dawson Dynasty in South America and was chased out of Argentina, making Casillas’s heart bleed.

Before his wound could close up, Great Xia stabbed them once more in Africa.

As this knife went in, it claimed close to half of Spain’s life.

As they had to be careful, Casillas had left half of the 120 thousand that retreated from South America in Spain. He had sent the remaining over to Africa.

As such, the Spain Dynasty had 160 thousand troops in Africa. Along with enlisting troops on the spot, they barely reached 200 thousand.

Obviously, such numbers could not fend off the Great Xia Army.

Luckily, the Great Xia Army did not show too much invasiveness, which allowed Casillas to heave a sigh of relief.

He was not a fool; he would not think that Great Xia was not attacking due to mercy. In his eyes, there was a higher chance that Great Xia was prepared to sit on the fence to watch the European dynasties fight amongst themselves and do nothing on the sides.

Only then could all of this make sense.  ( NovelFull )

Due to similar conjectures, Henry and the others did not rush to send their troops in Africa to the Algeria region.

Africa was not a peaceful place, so they did not dare to be careless.

How would they have known that Ouyang Shuo was not willing to be a bystander? Instead, he wished to be a sh*t stirrer. He was stirring up Europe into a mess and preventing its rise.

This error in judgement caused the current series of events.

Now, Casillas was facing a dilemma. Should he give up on Africa or go all out?

For this matter, Casillas had no choice but to hold another six country meeting.
