Chapter 1043 – Yanhuang Alliance Disbands
A series of System Notifications made the entire wilderness bustle with excitement.
“System Notification: Battle of Yashan has officially ended, the 36 Liangshan great men automatically enter the game progression.”
...
Out of the Liangshan good men mentioned in Water Margin, only 36 of them truly existed. The remaining 72 were added in because of the needs of the novels.
Even so, the 36 Liangshan good men appeared in the wilderness, giving rise to a huge uproar. That was because each and every one was exceptional, which was why Gaia posted a System Notification.
Who knows how many of them would join Great Xia.
The notifications still did not stop. The last one was related to Ouyang Shuo.
“System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi for gathering the three heroes of later Song, specially awarded one King Rank summoning talisman and 100 thousand reputation points!”
...
The moment the notification sounded out, Di Chen and the others nearly vomited blood.
“How can the game be played like this? Why does the old fox get all the good stuff?”
Di Chen felt really aggrieved. In the Battle Map, the Yanhuang Alliance had done a lot as well, so why did Ouyang Shuo get all the benefits
It was simply unfair.
If he wanted to blame something, he could only blame himself for lacking Ouyang Shuo’s charm.
Ouyang Shuo felt delighted deep down. In one Battle of Yashan, he not only earned 150 thousand merit points, but he also got a chance to get six historical talents. It was a huge harvest.
...
After arranging for Lu Xiufu and the others simply, Ouyang Shuo returned to his reading room and took out the two talismans.
Ouyang Shuo first tore open the King Rank summoning talisman that Gaia had rewarded him. A white light shone across, and a woman of absolute beauty appeared.
“I’m Li Shishi, greetings, my king!”
Ouyang Shuo was stunned, as he did not expect to summon such a special person.
Legends had it that Li Shishi was loved by Emperor Huizong of Song and favored by Song Dynasty famous poet Zhou Bangyan. Hence, one could see that her life story was really legendary, and her looks were exceptional.
Although Ouyang Shuo had already seen the four beauties, the first time he saw Li Shishi, he was still astonished. This was a type of beauty that was different from what Wang Zhaojun possessed.
Shanhai City also had brothels, but Ouyang Shuo did not plan to send her there. Compared to the brothel, there was a place more suitable for a girl with both looks and reputation.
That place was the Mountain and Sea Entertainment Holdings.
At the current date, the holdings had Wang Zhaojun, Diaochan, and other superstars. Li Shishi’s addition would definitely stun and attract more men.
Of course, she would also bring in huge profits. After asking Tsing Yi to bring her away, Ouyang Shuo started to use the second summoning talisman.
“System Notification: Player Qiyue Wuqi is using a designated summoning talisman, please specify the person’s name!”
Summoning Talisman (Song) could summon a pair of Song Dynasty officials. It had no rank restrictions. Naturally, the higher the rank, the better.
South Song had the Zhongxing four generals, Yuefei, Han Shizong, Zhang Jun, and Liu Guangshi. Out of the four of them, apart from Yuefei and Han Shizong, the other two were not much.
Between the two of them, Ouyang Shuo decided to choose the more famous Yuefei. Furthermore, with his arrival, his son, Yue Yun, would immediately come over, so it was worth it!
On the side of the civil servants, Wang Anshi was one of the top 10 ministers in history, so he would definitely be a God Rank talent. However, Ouyang Shuo did not like him. This idealist who wanted change did not suit the current Great Xia.
If he summoned Wang Anshi, it would only create problems for himself.
History proved that Wang Anshi’s revolution was a total failure. Not only did he fail to save North Song, it also dragged the Song Dynasty down into a battle between factions.
Thinking about it, Ouyang Shuo decided to summon Ouyang Xiu. It was not that he had much contribution or great work. Rather, the part that Ouyang Shuo paid attention to was his influence.
He was the leader of the literary circle of the Song Dynasty, leading the North Song poetry revolution and developed on the ideals of the olden literature.
With such a person here, Great Xia would not need to worry about getting other literary people.
Apart from that, Ouyang Shuo had a huge batch of students who stood out from the rest. Amongst them included people such as Su Zhe, Su Shi, and Zeng Fan. There were also huge Confucianism believers like Zhang Zai and Cheng Hao.
Ouyang Xiu had many students, which included Han Qi, Siam Guang, Bao Zheng, and others. These people were all recommended and admired by him. Out of the eight houses of Tang and Song, the five people from Song came from his teachings.
Hence, summoning Ouyang Xiu was definitely a good choice.
“I select Ouyang Xiu and Yuefei!”
“System Notification: Selection fits the requirement, starting summoning!”
A white light shone across as Ouyang Xiu and Yuefei both appeared. They bowed, “Greetings, my king!”
Ouyang Shuo smiled and helped them up.
Ouyang Xiu looked very different from what the books described him as.
Although he was the leader of the literary circle, he was not handsome. Not only that, but he was even a little ugly. Not only was he really short sighted, but he had two bunny teeth, and his entire person was short and fat.
Ouyang Shuo naturally would not judge a book by its cover, giving him a lot of respect. Even Yuefei took the initiative to greet him when he saw Ouyang Xiu.
The Song Dynasty used civil servants to rule the generals, so Yuefei’s actions were subconscious.
The Yuefei that appeared in the wilderness was close to 40, an active and filled with strength age.
After getting them, Ouyang Shuo took a look at both of their stats.

...
After sending away the two of them, the aftermath of the Battle of Yashan finally came to an end. As for their appointments, including that of the three heroes of later Song, it would have to wait until Ouyang Shuo discussed with the Cabinet.
The Battle of Yashan lasted for 20 days, when Ouyang Shuo returned to Shanhai City, it was the morning of the 21st day of the 5th month.
At 3 PM, a piece of news suddenly spread across the wilderness.
The moment the Battle of Yashan ended, Chun Shenjun’s Pill Sun City, Xiong Ba’s King City, Zhan Lang’s Blood Red City, and Wannan and Ludong Province that were occupied by the Yanhuang Alliance were all merged into Handan City.
With that, Handan City that had just upgraded to Capital City jumped into a giant that owned six provinces.
Ouyang Shuo guessed that the moment Handan City had upgraded, Chun Shenjun and the others were already ready to merge. However, considering that they could bring more troops to the Battle Map, they delayed it.
Only at this point did the Plan Z of the Yanhuang Alliance surface. They wanted to rely on the upgrade of Handan City to form a super dynasty to go up against Great Xia.
This was totally possible.
Different from Great Xia occupying Nanjiang, the five provinces that merged into Handan City were all rich lands. Since history, they were the core areas of dynasties, and their importance was far greater than that of Nanjiang.
To put it bluntly, even in the Qing Dynasty, the Nanjing region was half a barbarian land.
Hence, although they could not compare with Great Xia in terms of land, they were equal in terms of strength and potential. They even exceeded Great Xia in some areas.
Di Chen had already smoothly applied for the country establishment mission. Once he completes that, a new dynasty would stand tall in the Zhongyuan region and become a giant in the wilderness.
Along with this merger, a shocking fact was placed in front of everyone. The Yanhuang Alliance that had lasted for four years had disbanded, becoming a part of history.
At this moment, the Chinese players were all at a loss.
Since the start of the game, the Shanhai Alliance and the Yanhuang Alliance had gone head to head. It had already become a common topic, and in just five years, the stalemate had been broken.
In five years, from thousands of Lords in the Chinese wilderness, only three remained.
In terms of territory, Great Xia, Handan City, and Fallen Phoenix City could barely be termed as a situation of tripartite confrontation.
