On the eve of the big battle, the news of Consonance City and Shanhai City merging caused a massive wave in the wilderness.

Along with this merger, the two biggest alliances in China were walking two totally different paths. Shanhai Alliance was swallowing internally and slowly becoming one entity.

Yanhuang Alliance was individually blooming like a flower, becoming brighter and brighter.

The underground casinos of the nine imperial cities all opened up bets for the Battle of Mengding. Before this, those who bought Shanhai City winning was 1 paying 3, Yunnan City-State was 1 paying 5.

The moment the news came out, the various casinos all changed the odds to favor Shanhai City. The odds were now 1 to 2 for Shanhai City and 1 to 6 for Yunnnan City-State.

Obviously, the players did not think that things would go well for the Yunnan City-State.

At that very moment, Yunnan City-State also made a large move. That afternoon, Di Chen appeared in Qin Feng's Tengchong City and announced that Handan Alliance had formed an alliance with Tengchong City.

”When needed, Handan City will provide help to Tengchong City.” At the alliance conference, Di Chen threw down such a sentence, similar to Ouyang Shuo's actions.

As a result, everyone was riled up.

The players were wondering whether this battle would become a chaotic one that wrapped up the entire China.

People who were just watching would never mind things being too big.

When Ouyang Shuo received the news, he just smiled.

The Yanhuang Alliance had been making such small actions all along, so how could Ouyang Shuo not have taken measures against them? If they truly sent troops to help Yunnan City-State, it would not end well for them.

9th month. 12th day, Consonance City.

Since Consonance City had merged into Shanhai City, Cao Chun and Cao Hong still ended up under Ouyang Shuo in the end; they did not know whether they should laugh or cry.

After the greetings, they were sent to Shanhai City to learn along with Xiahou Yuan and the others.

The five generals under Cao Cao were General Zhang Liao, General Le Jing, General Yujin, General Xu Huang, and General Zhang He.

Apart from them, the Xiahou Family and the Cao Family's statuses were higher than them, including Xiahou Dun, Cao Den, Cao Chun, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu, and Xiahou Shang; they were known as the Eight Tiger Cavalry.

Out of the eight, Xiahou Dun was the most favored and Cao Ren was second.

After the Battle of Red Cliff, Cao Ren died in battle.

Cao Chun and Cao Hong were appointed as the commanders of the most elite Tiger Leopard Cavalry under Cao Cao, and they could be considered the generals that he trusted the most.

Especially Cao Chun; he was the first commander of the Tiger Leopard Cavalry.

Hence, in the Cao Cao Organization, Cao Chun and his brother's positions were far higher than Zhang Liao. However, the Consonance City Generals had Zhang Liao as their leader, making them feel rather awkward.

Their cultivation in the army academy was to get them out of that situation.

Along with the two joining the academy, the Army Military Academy's special class had expanded to 15 people; the lineup was unprecedented.

After dealing with the two brothers, Ouyang Shuo immediately led the Divine Martial Guards to the frontlines to review the Consonance City Legion. Of course, they were now the 3rd legion of the Dragon Legion Corps.

As for Consonance City, apart from Bai Hua, who was officially appointed as the Governor of Kunming Prefecture, everything remained as per normal. The structure of Consonance City followed Shanhai City, so there was no need to change.

At the same time, to calm down the hearts of the people, Ouyang Shuo naturally would not make changes to the roles and positions. If he wanted to make changes, he would just wait till the battle ended.

They needed to hand over the list of officials in Kunming Prefecture to the Administration Bureau so that they could record it.

Apart from that, the salary system of Kunming Prefecture would be connected to Shanhai City, and the law system would be connected as well. Such detailed work would naturally be left to the Nanjiang Govenror-General house's four directors to deal with.

The Kunming Prefecture structure needed to remove the Consonance City Military Affairs Department and move some of the officials into the Military Affairs Bureau. A portion would be moved to the Nanyang Navy Headquarters.

Before leaving, Ouyang Shuo had already told the Financial Bureau to, in the name of the Nanjiang Governor-General House, give two months of salary to the thousands of officials in the Kunming Prefecture.

Such bribery acts were much needed.

To the Kunming people, changing a Lord in a night was something that was not easy to adapt to.

As they say, they would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix.

There were many people in Kunming Prefecture who were unhappy or did not understand it. These people needed some time to adjust and needed the Governor-General House to perform some groundwork.

Wei Yang had already suggested they utilize the law system in Kunming Prefecture to wash out the place.

During the news conference, the merger that they both announced had started long ago. When Ouyang Shuo was on his voyage, the officials of both sides had undergone numerous negotiations.

Just the records of the negotiations could be stacked up to a person's height.

With this work done, could Ouyang Shuo finally make that suggestion to Bai Hua. If not, such a matter was not something that they could settle with a few words.

Now, there was nothing more they needed to do.

Bai Hua would personally take charge of Consonance City to cooperate with the Nanjiang Governor-General House for the handover.

...

Three days later, Ouyang Shuo and his group reached the 3rd legion camp.

”General Zhang Liao greets the Monarch!”
