Chapter 837 – Moving and Rebuilding

Each legion corps had one Taiping Country General taking up the role of Legion General. Additionally, there were Major Generals such as Military Law Secretary Feng Yunshan and Xiao Chaogui, Hu Yubiao, and Qin Rigang.

The Taiping Country generals had officially risen and became a huge power in the army.

The only party that could compete with them would be the Three Kingdom generals. However, they were not from the same faction and whether they could be listed together or not was unknown.

Zhang Xutuo, Luo Shixin, and Qinqiong; this teacher-student combination was also really eye-catching.

Of course, with Baiqi, Han Xin, Huo Qubing, and Sun Bin, these four God Generals in charge, along with a strict military law system, Ouyang Shuo was not worried that any of the generals would try anything funny.

Whilst arranging their appointments, Ouyang Shuo also purposely split up the generals from the same systems.

With the three legion corps all reaching full strength, Shanhai City had a total of 20 War Fighting Legions, with 1.4 million troops guarding its huge border.

The four borders were connected, forming a narrow strip, so they lacked sufficient strategic depth. If it was not that nearly half of it was oceans or territory borders, Shanhai City would face an even greater defensive pressure.

Hence, Ouyang Shuo decided to fill up the three legion corps all at once.

Morning of the 23rd day, Ouyang Shuo was in Xunlong City. He gathered Du Ruhui and the other generals to hold a military meeting to announce the expansion plan and relevant appointments.

The specific reorganization work would be left to the Military Affairs Bureau. Ouyang Shuo's only request was to break up the armies of each territory and for them not to be biased against any generals.

Ouyang Shuo had once written to the 16 Lords of Minnan Province to ask them to evaluate all their generals.

After the military meeting was over, Ouyang Shuo met Qinqiong alone.

Evaluation: Qinqiong is valiant and good at using the horse lance. Loyal to his Lord till death, he strived to serve the country well.

Once the truth was out, Qinqiong turned his hatred toward King City, ”If it were not for them, my Lord would not betray Shanhai City.” At least, that was what Qinqiong felt.

Hence, Qinqiong strongly requested to guard the border of Fuyong Prefecture.

Ouyang Shuo agreed to his request and also had a discussion with Tiger Legion Marshal Sun Bin. Not long after, the Tiger Legion headquarters would move to Fuyong Prefecture.

Sun Bin would lead the 1st legion of the Tiger Legion Corps as well as the 3rd and 4th legions under Fan Lihua and Qinqiong and guard Minnan Province.

This climatic battle between Sun Bin and Wuqi was going to be one to look forward to.

As for the defenses of Shaozhou Prefecture, Di Qing's 2nd legion and Li Xiucheng's 5th legion would work together. At the same time, Di Qing would become the Deputy Marshal of the legion corps and be in charge of the defense of Lingnan Province.

With that, not only did they not weaken the overall defenses in Lingnan Province, but they also strengthened their defenses against Jiangnan. The Tiger Legion Corps also became the first to cross over two provinces.

The newly formed 5th legion of the Leopard Legion Corps would be sent to Tianjing City to be in charge of guarding the Satellite City. If needed, they could go up north to help out.

...

3rd month, 24th day, after arranging all the military affairs, Ouyang Shuo started his one week tour.

Since the establishment of the country was imminent and the Satellite City matter had not been settled, taking out a week was already Ouyang Shuo's maximum. Luckily, the four Prefectures of Minnan Province were really stable, so Ouyang Shuo just needed to show himself to announce that he was the ruler.

If he had time in the future, Ouyang Shuo would come over once again. Using this chance, Ouyang Shuo also gained a rough understanding of these four Prefectures of land.

Let us start with Longyan Prefecture.
