Chapter 636 Divide ASEAN

In addition to the seizure of the treasury, the equipment dropped by the Alien Legion is also a large income. Although these equipment are not suitable for deployment in the army, it is suitable to resell them to domestic players.

Even if part of the drops of the 100,000 Alien Legion were wiped out, the total value would not be less than a million gold coins.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Shuo raised his head and said, "Remember it."

"No!" Bai Nanpu took out the record book that he carried with him.

Since Zhang Tingyu, the Director of Civil Affairs, led the establishment of the territory memorial system, the edicts issued by Ouyang Shuo, if conditions permit, need to be polished by the secretary's office before they are issued.

After all, Ouyang Shuo's literary talent is really not flattering in the eyes of others.

"First, all the jewelry seized by the treasury will be transported back to Shanhai City and handed over to Madam."

After the Hou Mansion has withdrawn from the territorial property in an orderly manner, maintaining the daily expenses of the Hou Mansion is also a big expense. At the time of the big wedding, Song Jia set up an internal treasury based on the gifts received for the use of the Marquis. Therefore, every time a large sum is seized, Ouyang Shuo will allocate a part of it to the internal treasury and let Song Jia take care of it.

"Secondly, the weapons and equipment in the national treasury, except for the supplies of the ocean-going fleet, are all reserved for the Xingzhou County Security Division to be formed." The security division will use the captured 5,000 Imperial Guards as its skeleton , and then recruited some recruits in Lion City, and at the same time recruited some sergeants from Shanhai City to form it together.

"Thirdly, the seized alien equipment is handed over to the Finance Department for sale. The funds obtained are handed over to the Commercial Department, which will purchase famous teas for the upcoming tea trade."

It is too early to talk about opening up the sea trade routes between Shanhai City and the west. But with the fall of Xingguo, it is only a matter of time before the sea trade route between Shanhai City and the east is opened.

"Fourth, 1.7 million gold coins, the Marquis will retain 1 million gold coins. Another 500,000 gold coins will be used for the pensions of the fallen soldiers and military expenses for the expansion of the two major fleets. As for the remaining 200,000 gold coins Ten thousand gold coins will be directly transferred to Xingzhou County treasury." Ouyang Shuo finished distributing the huge amount of property in a few words.

At his level, dealing with millions of gold coins is already easy.

April 24, Xingzhou County.

"Your Majesty, the military situation on the front line!"

Chen Dameng hurried in with two sealed letters in his hand.

Ouyang Shuo took it and saw that the letter was sent by General Huo Qubing. The Imperial Guard Corps was in the northern part of Xingzhou County, and found traces of the reinforcements from the Johor Kingdom hidden here.

At present, Huo Qubing has quietly mobilized the imperial guards, surrounded 50,000 reinforcements, and is waiting to collect the net. Huo Qubing's letter was to ask the prince for instructions on how to deal with the support army.

Obviously, in Huo Qubing's eyes, they were already in his pocket.

The other secret letter was sent from the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Department in Shanhai City. According to the information detected by the Military Intelligence Department, the Annan navy began to patrol the waters of the Beihai Gulf, and it was menacing.

"Has ASEAN finally made a move?!" Ouyang Shuo muttered to himself.

Ouyang Shuo had predicted that such a day would come at the moment when Xingguo was captured. It is impossible to start a full-scale war with ASEAN countries, Ouyang Shuo's strategy is to alienate.

As long as ASEAN countries do not act in unison, there is nothing to worry about.

Ouyang Shuo immediately replied to Huo Qubing and the Military Affairs Department, sending two completely different military orders.

In the secret letter to Huo Qubing, Ouyang Shuo asked the imperial guards to detain the reinforcements with minimum casualties and temporarily take them into custody. At the same time, they let go of a small team and took the secret letter that Ouyang Shuo wrote to the players in Johor.

Ouyang Shuo stated in a confidential letter to Johor that Shanhai City is willing to start maritime trade with Johor, and that Johor should send a delegation to discuss specific matters in the Lion City.

At the end of the secret letter, Ouyang Shuo said, "Once the flames of war are ignited, not to mention whether Shanhai City can hold Xingzhou County, your country next to Xingzhou County will fall into the quagmire of war, completely become the main battlefield, and even the lives will be ruined. War Between trade and trade, which one is the choice that is really beneficial to your country, please think twice."

If it is to win over Johor, then it is a resolute counterattack to Kofi Annan.

Ouyang Shuo ordered Shi Lang, Admiral of the Navy, to be appointed as the commander-in-chief. He would unite the forces of the Jiaozhou Fleet, Beihai Gulf Fleet, and Yashan Fleet.

"This battle is related to the maritime strategy of the territory. The general must beat the Annan navy thoroughly, so that the Annan warship cannot leave the port, and completely display the glory of the Nanyang navy; let the ASEAN countries clearly realize that the Beihai Gulf is the territory of Shanhai City. Others No one can act recklessly in this sea area." Ouyang Shuo said.

Annan is one of the countries that Shanhai City must capture. Ouyang Shuo would never allow such an uneasy factor at the door of his house. This time Annan took the initiative to jump out and hit his arms.

In this way, the two sides will completely turn against each other. When the right time comes, Annan will have an excuse and righteousness to send troops from Shanhaicheng. Even if the ASEAN countries protest, it is not good to directly send troops to intervene.

Boil the frogs in warm water, nibble away at ASEAN bit by bit, constantly challenge the limits of ASEAN, and slowly disintegrate it. This is the grand strategy for ASEAN drawn up by Ouyang Shuo.

Conquering Xingguo is the first step, while suppressing Annan while winning over Johor is the second step of the strategy.

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

Johor State, Putrajaya.

Putrajaya, the King City of Johor, is located on the west coast of Johor, facing the Strait of Malacca to the west. The entire city is located at the intersection of the Klang River and the Gombak River, known as the "muddy estuary".

The largest player force in Johor, referred to as "one regiment and two counties".

Yituan, the largest player guild in China [Tiger Mercenary Corps], the inspiration for the name of the Mercenary Corps is the Malayan tiger, the national animal of Johor. The location of the mercenary regiment was chosen in Putrajaya.

The second counties are the first-level counties located in the two peninsulas of Johor. They are also the only two player counties in Johor, namely Perak City in the west peninsula and Sabah City in the east peninsula.

These three forces basically control the voice of the player group in Johor. The 50,000 reinforcements sent to Xingguo this time are mainly the army from Perak City.

The three bosses were facing a secret letter at this time, and looked at each other in blank dismay.

"The other party's suggestion, I think you can consider it." The speaker was the lord of Thunderbolt City, Dashike Shanda Bin Techa, or Shanda for short.

The names of the people of Johor are very special. They usually do not have a fixed surname, but only their own name. The son takes the father's name as the surname, and the father's surname is the grandfather's name, so the surnames of several generations in a family are different.

Among their names, the first name is listed first, and the last name is listed last. The men's last names and first names are separated by the word "bin", and the women's names are separated by "bindi".

Dashike Shanda Bin Tcha, said that "Shanda" is his first name, "Tcha" is his surname, which is his father's name, and "Bin" means male.

As for the "Dashik" at the front, it is a noble hereditary title.

Hearing that 50,000 reinforcements were detained by Shanhai City, Shanda was most worried. In addition, once the flames of war spread, the first to suffer is Thunderbolt City, which is adjacent to the Star Kingdom.

Therefore, Shanda is the most steadfast peacemaker among the three.

Shan Da, who was born noble, can be described as a representative of the children of the Johor family, and his status is similar to that of Di Chen in China. Perak City also faintly overwhelms Sabah City by half a point, and is regarded as the largest territory in Johor.

Because of this, Shanda can be said to be the one who speaks the most among the three.

"Hmph, this is just an expedient measure by the other party!" Hang Tuah, the head of the [Tiger Mercenary Corps], was dissatisfied with Shanda's concession, with long fiery red hair, which was very eye-catching, and said with a grin: "In my opinion, I still have to fight!" As he spoke, he waved his fist vigorously, showing off his strong muscles.

Hang Tuah, the number one player among adventure players in Johor, is known as the "Red Tiger" by the players because of his bravery and his iconic red hair.

Those who are hostile to him secretly call it "Crazy Tiger", which reflects the person's militancy and passion from the side.

Hang Tuah is the most active in provoking a national war, and has always been tit for tat with Shanda. This person is also from a prominent background, and the two belong to different fields, so naturally he is not afraid of Shanda.

When Shanda heard this, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

"You fool, one day, I will make you suffer." Shanda said secretly.

Like Xingguo, there are only a few guild leaders who overwhelm the lords. Although Hang Tuah is the leader of the largest guild in Johor, he has not been really taken seriously by Sanda.

It was Guo Yannan who really made Shanda fearful.

Guo Yannan, the lord of Sabah City, is also the only Chinese among the three, a representative of the Chinese forces in Johor. Because of this, Guo Yannan was extremely low-key and rarely expressed his opinions.

According to Guo Yannan's original intention, he naturally hoped to resolve this matter peacefully. A war is ignited, and Sabah City may not be spared. Second, as a Chinese, Guo Yannan had some conflicts in his heart if he wanted to start a war with China.

More importantly, Sabah City is adjacent to the waters of the Nansha Islands, and the sea transportation is extremely convenient. Once Johor opens up maritime trade with San Hai City, Sabah City will be the first to benefit.

Guo Yannan is confident that the maritime trade will bring the territory's finances to a new level.

Even so, Guo Yannan remained neutral. Without him, it's because Guo Yannan doesn't want to offend Hang Tuah.

In Johor, the Malays consider themselves natives. Non-Malays such as Chinese and Indians in the country are extremely despised and regarded as second-class citizens. The relationship between the two groups has never been harmonious.

However, the Chinese are extremely prominent in Johor, which makes the Malays even more upset. Hang Tuah is an orthodox Malay, and he has always looked down upon Guo Yannan.

Where is Guo Yannan? On the other hand, he upholds the doctrine of the mean inherited from the family, making concessions on the surface and only competing in secret. No matter how unhappy Hang Tuah is, facing the rise of Sabah City, he dare not really despise it in his heart.

That's why Guo Yannan made Shanda feel afraid.

It can be seen that the golden mean is sometimes a great art of survival.
