***The Great Xia Empire-Persian Empire War***

In order to take down the Persian Empire quickly, Ouyang Shuo treated the matter seriously. He sent three armies for a total of 31 legions and 1.55 million troops.

The top front came from Phoenix legion corps’ four legions in the North Asia warzone; they would enter from Xijiang Province. Phoenix legion corps commander Guo Ziyi would be the north front commander.

The middle front included the four legions of the Bear legion corps and the three from the West Asia legion corps for a total of 350 thousand troops; they would enter from Xijiang Province.

God General Wang Jian would take up the role of middle front commander.

The bottom front would consist of the 1st to 4th legion corps of the South Asia warzone, a total of a million troops. They were the main force of this attack and would attack from Ashoka Province.

God General Li Jing would personally lead these troops.

Apart from that, the Indian Ocean Squadron would also launch attacks on the shorelines of the Persian Empire.

Great Xia’s sudden declaration of war was a hard to accept disaster for the Persian Empire. Although the Persian Empire had two million troops, it was difficult for them to win against the Great Xia Army coming from three fronts.

The Persian Empire’s internal stability was an advantage but also a massive disadvantage.

Out of the two million troops, more than half were imperial city guards that had basically never experienced war; their actual combat ability was terrible.

If that were not the case, the Mongol Empire would not have beaten the Persian Empire to the point where their face swelled up during their west conquering.

Compared to the Mongol iron cavalry, the Great Xia Army was more than a level higher.

Based on combat strength, the 1.5 million Great Xia troops were equal to or greater than the two million Persian Empire troops.

How could the Persian Empire win?

They could only seek help from their allies.

There were three dynasties connected to the Persian Empire that were in the Silver Hand camp, namely the Arab Empire, the Caesar Dynasty, and the Romanov Dynasty.

The Caesar and Romanov dynasties were trapped on the European battlefield. They were even looking for the Persian Empire to help them. There was no way they would have the energy to help the Persian Empire instead.

In particular, the Romanov Empire was busy conquering Ottoman Dynasty land. Moreover, the region where it was connected to the Persian Empire by was also the east region, which was an area where they had little people. As a result, they lacked the ability to help.

The greatest possibility was the Arab Empire.

The two empires had the same origins. However, as a result of a difference in faith, they were split into two empires. Their current relationship was not that friendly, and whether the Arab Empire was willing to help them or not was a truly unknown factor.

Not to mention that the Arab Empire also had to face the direct threat of Great Xia’s Africa warzone.

All things considered, the Persian Empire could only face this battle on its own.
