889 Mysterious Plan Z (1/2)

Chapter 889 – Mysterious Plan Z

6th month, 15th day, Shanhai City, Xia Palace, West Hall.

At 10 AM, all the famous media outlets in China gathered to witness a glorious moment. The Great Xia Dynasty King and Stone City Lord Wufu were signing a vassal state agreement.

No one expected the recently returned Xia King to throw down such a huge bomb.

10 minutes later, Ouyang Shuo and Wufu appeared together. With many people as witnesses, they signed the agreement.

After which, Ouyang Shuo and Wufu did not leave right away. Instead, they stayed to answer a few of the media's questions.

The moment their words ended, the reporters all raised their hands. They really wanted to know the inside news. Ouyang Shuo smiled and called for Quick Daily News.

”Xia King, if Stone City is your vassal state, are they still a member of the Shanhai Alliance?”

Ouyang Shuo replied, ”Stone City working with the Great Xia Dynasty is still within the alliance structure. It's just a closer knit cooperation.”

Following which, someone asked Wufu, ”Lord Wufu, to suddenly make the Great Xia Dynasty your suzerain state, were you forced to? What happened behind the scenes?”

Wufu was really calm, ”The Great Xia Dynasty is the top territory in the world, and the Xia King is my good friend; this cooperation is due to strategic considerations.”

Ouyang Shuo added, ”If there was insider news, why would I invite all of you here?”

”Hahaha!”

Friendly laughter broke out within the hall. Whether the people truly believed those words or not, no one knew.

After which, someone asked, ”Xia King, as the suzerain state of Stone City, what are your views on the recent conflict between Handan City and Stone City?”

After this person finished his words, the entire hall was silent as they all looked at Ouyang Shuo. The media was the most sensitive, and they could feel that this was the reason for Stone City's actions.

Ouyang Shuo was prepared for this, and he said solemnly, ”As the suzerain state, I have the obligation to protect the safety of Stone City. If Handan City provokes Stone City once more, I would not mind sending troops.”

This was a declaration of war.

'Hua~~~~'

All of the reporters at the scene were really excited, recording down Ouyang Shuo's words.

”Scoop, what a big scoop!”

Some reporters even thought of titles for tomorrow such as 'Great Xia Dynasty declares war on Handan City!'

Ouyang Shuo accepted a few more questions before the ceremony ended. The moment it did, the news of Stone City becoming a vassal state spread across the entire China region.

More hidden currents moved in the China region.

As the top territory in the world, every action by the dynasty would attract attention, much less such huge news. This matter blew up the forums.

Some people even said, ”The China region is about to explode.”

At the same time, the 4th legion of the Leopard Legion Corps housed at the border of Zhen An Prefecture were ordered to teleport to Stone City to fulfil the promise.

A few days ago, the Teaching Division led by Cai Mao boarded the 10 turreted ships and proceeded toward Binhai Bay.

Stone City had also started their soldier recruitment operation to prepare to build the Binhai Squadron.

All of this was bad news for Handan City.

...

Zhili Province, Handan City.

After learning that the Great Xia Dynasty and Stone City had signed a suzerainty agreement, Di Chen was in a bad mood. For Di Chen, who wanted to take down the entire province, this was the worst news he could have received.

Yanhuang Alliance had tried to enjoy suzerain treatment from the Yunnan City-State, but they did not get what they wished for. Who knew that the Great Xia Dynasty would be a step ahead of them?

”It seems like our actions against Stone City have backfired.” Di Chen was feeling regret. He did not expect Wufu to be so weak; he was unable to handle even a little pressure.

”What a coward!” Di Chen was furious.

Di Chen's previous actions were because he wanted to take down Stone City, but he was worried his actions would be too much and would attract the attention of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Di Chen wanted to use the warm water cooking frog method to slowly eat up Stone City. Who knew that the frog would not follow the plan and jumped into the bowl of the Great Xia Dynasty?

”That old fox has benefited from all this.” Di Chen was filled with regret.

Juedai Fenghua was silent at the side. She had actually warned him at the start to not do anything toward Stone City. If he wanted to act, he needed to give them a lethal blow.

However, Di Chen did not listen.
