Chapter 1127 – One Real and One Fake

Luzon, Java, and Australia; the three of them were one body.

Thinking along this line, the group of them gathered together, pooling their ideas. This meeting lasted till night before they finally managed to take out an overall structure for this battle.

After this, the Grand Council would be in charge of the specifics and the generals on the frontlines would follow the plan.

The orange red setting sun covered the Xia Palace, shining through the red door and entering the hall. Facing the setting sun, Ouyang Shuo stretched, not bothering about his image. Before the meeting ended, he announced a series of appointments.

The army used to attack Luzon was as usual; it would be known as the expedition army.

Dragon Legion Corps marshal Baiqi was the expedition general, Jia Xu was the advisor, Huo Qubing was the vanguard general, Hanoi marshal Xue Rengui was the left general, and Emperor Squadron Fleet Admiral Zhou Yu was the right general.

The specific troops deployed included the Dragon Legion Corps, the Guards Legion Corps, Hanoi 1st, 2nd, and 3rd legions, Emperor Squadron, Yashan Squadron 1st, 2nd, and 3rd division, and the 4th division of the Indian Ocean Squadron.

The 1st and 5th legions of the City Protection Legion as well as the 1st and 5th division of the Indian Ocean Squadron would act as backup forces to be thrown in if needed.

Since they were backup, they naturally had to be prepared in advance.

At this point, the pre-war preparations for the Battle of Luzon came to an end. Now, only the flames await.

...

11th month, 7th day, Auckland Region.

Before this, after Siam went under Great Xia, New Zealand's imperial city Wellington did the same. This meant that the entirety of New Zealand belonged to Great Xia.

Although that was the case, in Great Xia's regional planning, New Zealand was still listed as Auckland region. Jason was still the provincial general and was deeply trusted by Ouyang Shuo.

Auckland City.

Using the cover of the night, Huo Qubing led 350 thousand Guards Legion Corps troops and sneakily teleported over.

Auckland provincial general Jason had received the secret orders from the Imperial Court long ago, and with the help of the Auckland formation, they had set up curfew in the city. This whole matter was a secret to ensure that the tracks of the Guards Legion Corps were not revealed.

Since Australia was one of the war targets, how could the nearby New Zealand be left out?

Of course, if outsiders saw the Great Xia Guards Legion Corps here, they would be shocked. As on the morning of the same day, the Honglu Temple Outreach Division had revealed to the public the dynasty's plan toward Luzon.

In the announced participating army list, the Guards Legion Corps was included.

Who knew that this eye-catching trump card force would suddenly appear in Auckland, tens of thousands of miles away from Luzon?

Very quickly, the answer was revealed.

The next morning, when the sky turned bright, the 1st and 4th legions of the Guards Legion Corps, under the protection of the 4th division of the Indian Ocean Squadron, advanced toward the neighboring Australia region.

After doing so much, Great Xia was actually going to take down Australia first?

Maybe.

Braving the ocean wind and charging through the mist, the squadron rode the waves and were ready to sound the first gun of the Battle of Luzon.

At 2 PM, the squadron entered Sydney Harbor.

The Australia region did not have a foundation for industrialization and lacked advanced artisans. Apart from purchasing merchant ships from the outside, they only had some fishing boats. They did not have a navy.
