In fact, the Peacock King had no choice.
On July 10, the Peacock King made a decision to mobilize 150,000 troops from the front line to defend the border. At the same time, an envoy was immediately sent to Delhi to prepare for peace talks with King Ashoka.
The Peacock King hopes to stop fighting with the Ashoka Dynasty and make an unanimous external.
"At present, the internal conflict between us, no matter who wins or loses, is Tianzhu's internal affairs, and now the bandits and bandits come to invade, they are actually foreign enemies, they are here to steal Tianzhu's territory, we must guard against it."
"If your country wishes to end the war and return to peace, I would like to give back the territory of the city. After thinking about it, you must not become the sinner of Tianzhu through the ages." Peacock King said in his letter of credence.
The words are sincere, and the grace and power are in harmony.
In order to stop the war, the Peacock King even returned Yiying's invaded territory.
Only when the two sides stop fighting can the Maurya Dynasty withdraw more troops from the front line to fight against Daxia's invasion, otherwise, the Maurya Dynasty can't stop Daxia's tiger and wolf army at all.
In the face of survival and expansion, the Peacock King naturally chose the former.
The Maurya Dynasty had great expectations for this peace talk. After all, in his opinion, if he could easily conquer all the lost ground without a single soldier, it would definitely be a big temptation for King Ashoka.
For this reason, King Peacock even sent a letter to King Gupta, urging King Gupta to give up the occupied territory together and fight against the invasion of Daxia, saying: "Daxia is the teacher of tigers and wolves, and his appetite is so great. We should advance and retreat together."
Although the two dynasties belong to different camps, they should have a consensus on the issue of dealing with the Great Xia.
Sure enough, King Gupta replied quickly, expressing that he would send a mission to Delhi to discuss the matter of stopping troops and making peace.
In this way, the weight of the peace talks immediately increased.
The only thing that makes the Peacock King still doubtful is that in the reply letter, King Gupta only stated that he wanted peace talks, but did not make it clear that he wanted to return the occupied territories.
The Peacock King can also understand a thing or two about King Gupta's thoughts.
The main body of the Gupta Dynasty is in the Deccan Plateau, and it currently occupies the territory of the Ashoka Dynasty, which is the most fertile. It is of great significance to the Gupta Dynasty, and it cannot be easily given up.
In addition, Daxia did not use troops against the Gupta Dynasty at the moment, so the Gupta King was naturally not so eager.
The Peacock King was not good at persuading him, so he could only wait and see what happened. He believed that after three years of patience, Daxia suddenly sent troops to Tianzhu, and it was definitely not aimless.
The next big battle may exceed everyone's imagination.
It is absolutely impossible for the Gupta Dynasty to be alone. By then, the Gupta King will definitely wake up.
Especially when he thought of Daxia's sudden return of one million prisoners of war to the Ashoka Dynasty before, an indelible cloud flashed in the eyes of the Peacock King.
He had a faint feeling that Da Xia might have been planning Tianzhu for a long time.
"It's windy!"
Thinking of Tianzhu's internal strife for a year and a half, the Peacock King shuddered unconsciously.
…
Ashoka Dynasty, Delhi City.
As the only royal city in Tianzhu, the momentum of Delhi City is not inferior to any royal city in Huaxia District. Because of the layout of ninety-nine returning to one, it even has its own unique charm.
Looking at the world, it is also a first-class city.
In July, the city of Derry suddenly became lively because of the sudden invasion of the Maurya Dynasty by the Great Xia. In just two days, two envoys successively came to Derry with great fanfare.
This is the trick of the Peacock King.
Through such a method, he wanted to spread the signal of the peace talks throughout the city of Derry, so as to win the support of public opinion and increase the bargaining chips for the peace talks.
Normally speaking, the Peacock King's response is quite appropriate, and there is no problem.
The only problem is that the Great Xia was one step ahead of the Maurya Dynasty. Half a month before the Maurya Dynasty sent the mission, the Great Xia Mission had quietly arrived in Delhi.
To this day, Daxia's use of diplomatic means has long been pure and pure, and the global dynasties cannot match it.
The Daxia envoys brought goodwill and threatened to cooperate with the Ashoka Dynasty to attack the Maurya Dynasty and the Gupta Dynasty in one fell swoop. This proposal fits Ashoka's mind.
With the current strength of the Ashoka Dynasty, it can still barely support the alliance against the Maurya Dynasty and the Gupta Dynasty, but it is not enough to truly annihilate the two dynasties.
If Daxia is willing to come forward, it will naturally depend on the First World War.
Therefore, the two parties happily signed the covenant, and Daxia even sent Zhang Yi, the Minister of Honglu Temple, to attend the signing ceremony of the covenant in person to show respect for the Ashoka Dynasty.
This of course satisfied Ashoka.
The cooperation between the two parties even has a tendency to develop into a "honeymoon period".
Therefore, when the Maurya Dynasty's envoys arrived in Delhi, although they used tricks, they were rejected without any surprise.
Not to mention seeing King Ashoka, he didn't even see the face of an important minister.
This is embarrassing!
The envoys came with great expectations, but they had no choice but to rush back in despair.
A farce, before it even started, it ended without a problem.
Not only that, but on the day the Maurya Dynasty envoys arrived in Delhi, the Ashoka army stepped up their offensive on the front line without showing any mercy.
The Maurya Dynasty withdrew 150,000 troops from the front line, but it gave the Ashoka Dynasty a chance.
Great Xia sent heavy troops to attack the Maurya Dynasty, which confirmed the promise made half a month ago. How could King Ashoka have peace talks with the Maurya Dynasty, and was only satisfied with regaining the lost ground.
Ashoka wanted more than half of Tianzhu.
In order to confuse Ashoka, Daxia even stated in the covenant that when Tianzhu was divided in the future, Daxia only wanted the territory of the Gupta Dynasty, and gave the fat meat of the Maurya Dynasty to the Ashoka Dynasty.
"Big Xia occupied Tianzhu just to control the Indian Ocean." The envoy said vowedly.
Although Ashoka was skeptical, he was still very excited to hear about the partition plan. If he could occupy all the territory of the Mauryan Dynasty, the Ashoka Dynasty would not only be able to recover, but also go to a higher level.
…
The Peacock King who got the news was extremely disappointed.
Facing the left and right attacks of the Ashoka Dynasty and the Great Xia, the Maurya Dynasty could not stand it at all, and could only hope for the assistance of its allies, the Gupta Dynasty.
It's a pity that Daxia has already reached this point.
On July 15th, under the escort of the Indian Ocean Fleet, the Great Xia South Route Army landed on the eastern coast of the Gupta Dynasty, leaving the Gupta Dynasty with no time for other matters.
Like the Maurya Dynasty, the one-and-a-half-year war caused heavy losses to the Gupta Dynasty's army, with its strength reduced to less than 700,000, more than half of which were sent to the front.
Because in King Gupta's view, it is unlikely that Daxia coveted the Gupta Dynasty in the hilly area.
Even if you want to fight, you must fight the Maurya Dynasty first.
Facts have proved that King Gupta's judgment was correct, and the Maurya Dynasty was indeed attacked first.
The problem is that Daxia's appetite is so great that he is targeting the entire Tianzhu region, and the Gupta Dynasty is naturally not immune. The expedition of the Great Xia South Route Army completely broke King Gupta's intention to reinforce the Maurya Dynasty.
For a time, the structure of Tianzhu District ushered in new changes. From the previous Ashoka Dynasty 1V2, it gradually evolved into a 2V2 epic duel.
