Chapter 1263 – Squeezing Dry Their Last Bit of War Potential

Gaule Dynasty, Vic City.

Everybody had their difficulties. Along with the strong rise of the Spain Dynasty, the Gaule Dynasty had become the weakest out of the six European dynasties.

Hence, Henry's worries were no less than William's.

Although the Gaule Dynasty had six million players, one million more than House of Tudor, they were similarly facing many problems in west Africa. Till date, they had only taken down one small country, Libya.

Such a result did not mean much to the Gaule Dynasty and could not change much.

However, this was not the part that worried Henry.

The terrible geographical position of the dynasty worried him the most.

Southwest, the Gaule Dynasty and the Spain Dynasty were separated by the Pyrenees mountains. Southeast, it was separated from the Caesar Dynasty through the Alps. They belonged to the same camp and high mountains separated them, so there would not be any problems.

However, toward the northeast, it was located in the north European plains just like the Ottoman Dynasty. The boundless vast plains could not offer the Gaule Dynasty any strategic help.

Once Silver Hand decided to attack the Ottoman Dynasty, the Gaule Dynasty would be thrust to the forefront.

This placed them at a very passive position.

Henry did not believe the words of the organization that claimed that they could win in one battle.

The Ottoman Dynasty was not weak. If it truly faced the attacks of five dynasties, it would fight to the death. Being the weakest with nothing to protect them, the Gaule Dynasty would be the best choice for them to attack.

If that happened, the organization would benefit while the Gaule Dynasty might be lost.

Hence, as the Ottoman Dynasty expanded outward eagerly, Henry found it difficult to sleep. However, he was restricted by the geography and lacked the strength to change anything, so he could only quietly wait for the huge war to arrive.

Henry was looking forward to a change in the situation.

...

9th month, 15th day, Imperial Capital.

Ouyang Shuo temporarily lacked the energy to bother about Europe. Instead, it was Di Chen who submitted a memorial saying that he had arrived in Europe and would visit the six dynasties soon.

Ouyang Shuo did not have high hopes toward this matter.

Ouyang Shuo would need a good opportunity if he wanted to tear apart the two organizations.

On the other hand, Zhang Yi's first negotiation with the Mongol Empire made Ouyang Shuo disappointed. Genghis Khan agreed to let the Great Xia Army travel through the House of Ogedai, but he was not willing to submit to Great Xia.

The negotiation process froze up just like that.

Ouyang Shuo was really clear cut, summoning back Zhang Yi and saying, ”They only have one chance. The next time they want to negotiate, they will have to send someone to the imperial capital.”

Currently, Ouyang Shuo focused on the war of Tibet the most.

During the past few days, the four armies of Great Xia had gone all out, not bothering about sacrifices as they sieged city after city. They had already removed the first defensive line of Tibet and obtained a stable frontline base.

The two million Great Xia troops finally stepped onto Tibetan soil.

At the same time, the Ashoka Dynasty's 500 thousand guards and resources had all arrived in Tibet. Only then did the seismic battle between the two dynasties truly get underway.

Close to four million troops would fight a life or death war on the Tibet plateau. The fates of both dynasties were on the line, and neither side would be able to take the loss.

However, as their motives were different, the attitudes of both sides were different too.

The Ashoka Dynasty wanted to defend Tibet and protect their honor. As such, they were more conservative and let the enemy come to them. On the other hand, as Great Xia wanted to reduce the strength of the enemy and wear them down, it was really proactive and went all out.

One attacking and one defending, the effects would obviously be different.

Under Li Jing's leadership and the coordination of the four marshals and various generals, the two million troops formed a black line, pushing from east to west.
