    Chapter 1119 – Unprecedented


    Avera did not need to be so afraid, as Ouyang Shuo temporarily did not have the time to bother about that matter.


    Along with the end of the Battle of Hawaii and the Battle of Jin, there were many things for him to handle. Needless to say, he needed to take this chance to re-evaluate the world situation.


    He had enraged the Dawson Dynasty, and that had its pros and cons.


    Crushing the Free Squadron helped to solidify Great Xia’s might on the ocean and scare off most small threats. However, they had totally made enemies with Silver Hand. In the future, TWP would only huddle closer together to go against Great Xia.


    The academic faction was like a fisherman and could continue to be a bystander.


    Naturally, Ouyang Shuo would not allow them to do so. The day that Yashan Squadron returned, the Outreach Division of the Honglu Temple made an announcement that stirred up discussion around the world.


    The announcement wrote, “As a trading nation, Great Xia respects naval freedom and protects free trade. From now on, we open up the Cape of Good Hope, Gulf of Aden, Maldives, a Straits, Hawaii, and other trade routes to the world such that we can develop global trade together.”


    “At the same time, Great Xia respects the various trade organizations that exist. Be it the ones that we have signed with or other members of other trade organizations, we wee them to join us.”


    “Of course, Great Xia would continue to protect our interests as usual on the ocean to protect the safety of the trade route. Anyone who threatens us cannot be epted.”


    This notification that was both soft and hard caused the world to shake.


    No one would feel that Great Xia’s act of opening up ports and trade routes was a weak act after they had just destroyed Dawson Dynasty’s Free Squadron.


    “This is a newly rising dynasty, having unprecedented magnanimity and ss.” Media outletsmented like this.


    Great Xia taking a step back to proceed forward was not only was a signal for Silver Hand to temporary halt their attacks, but it also totally turned around the debates on the forums. They had once again obtained the high ground and praise of yers around the world.


    “Now, it’s time to see how Jack reacts,” Ouyang Shuo said.


    If Jack was smart enough, he would swallow this and walk down the path Ouyang Shuo set out for him. He would reorganize the global strategy of TWP and focus on going against the academic faction.


    Great Xia wanted to prove to Silver Hand and the Academic Faction through a series of wars that Great Xia was not weak, and they could not be disregarded in the grand scheme of things.


    This message was one that both of them understood.


    Apart from that, Ouyang Shuo had other reasons for sending out the announcement.


    First, to stabilize voyage trading.


    Great Xia opening up ports and trade routes at crucial areas was a move that would definitely tempt TWP members to restart trade with Great Xia.


    As there were no restrictions, it helped to form regional trade between the different regions.


    The ck Snake Guards had gotten news that before the Battle of Hawaii was revealed, some Lords in the Mediterranean were ready to leave the agreement.


    With Great Xia’s promise, apart from crazy people like Caesar, there probably would not be many who would go to the extreme. Silver Hand mainly consisted of aristocratic families, and they always ced bets on both sides.


    Ouyang Shuo was not sure about the others, but Henry would definitely not leave.


    With the above two points, they could basically stabilize the scale of Great Xia voyage trading. Along with the opening up of South America’s market, the overall effect was minuscule.


    Right as the Battle of Hawaii ended, Great Xia sent out an enormous envoy led by Zhang Yi himself toward the Indian Empire.


    This trip would definitely bring Great Xia many unexpected surprises.


    Of course, if TWP knew their ce and did not go all out against Great Xia, even lowering themselves to promote global trade, it would be a great opportunity for Great Xia.


    A global trading era had arrived.


    Secondly, to buy time.


    Silver Hand’s forceful actions made Ouyang Shuo realize that when facing such a monster, Great Xia could only have certain advantages. In terms of overall strength, the difference was still like heaven and earth.


    Putting it bluntly, Great Xia did not have the ability to go head to head against Silver Hand.


    If not, after the Battle of Hawaii had ended, Great Xia’sbined squadron could have chased the win and attacked Dawson Dynasty to give Jack an unforgettable lesson.


    However, if they did that, their rtionship would fall to an irrecoverable stage.


    Toward this, Ouyang Shuo did not feel any regret, and he even felt a little proud. The Great Xia he made had only existed for five years, whilst his opponent Silver Hand was an organization that hadsted hundreds of years.


    If it were not for the end of the world and theary migration, there would not be Earth Online. Ouyang Shuo would not even have the right to talk to them, much less go head to head against them.


    “The path has to be taken step by step.” Ouyang Shuo warned himself.


    Although Great Xia could notpete with Silver Hand, it had its advantages. In five years, Great Xia had obtained a really strong territory specialties and hidden buildings.


    This foundation was something that no territory in the world couldpare to.


    Along with the talent pool of five thousand years of Chinese history, as long as Great Xia digested it, they could surge forward.


    Furthermore, Great Xia still had problems internally.


    Before this, the three country ruling policies that Ouyang Shuo made up, be it making it official, making thew, or monitoring, all of them needed time to execute and slowly change the dynasty.


    This needed a rtively stable external environment.


    With so many elements mixed together, Ouyang Shuo decide to yield. When he held the upper hand, he did not force people into the corner. Instead, he magnanimously showed kind intentions.


    That was because Great Xia still needed time to grow.


    ...


    What Ouyang Shuo did not know was that Great Xia’s announcement not only made the world discuss about it, but it also shocked the powerful Lords in the world as well as higher ups in both Silver Hand and the academic faction.


    The two organizations both held secret meetings to discuss the matter.


    Maybe at that moment, the old fogeys of Silver Hand, those old men that had lived for so long, had started to pay attention to Ouyang Shuo. They began to treat him as a significant person.


    Such treatment being ced on a young man was unprecedented.
