Chapter 1123 Make an Offer! (12/18)

The construction funds for Hawaii will also fall on the prisoners and warships of the Freedom Fleet.

After supplementing the battle damage, at least two and a half formations, that is, half a fleet, can be reorganized from this batch of spoils. Ouyang Shuo has no intention of expanding the Great Xia Navy, how to deal with these prisoners and warships has become a tricky matter.

Fortunately, at this time, Feng Prison Huang solved this problem for him.

Although Phoenix's Dajin is inland, it also has an overseas base like Hokkaido. In view of the prosperity of ocean trade and the irreversible trend of trade globalization, Feng Prison Huang is naturally unwilling to be left behind.

To form a navy, the Great Jin is imperative.

However, the Jin Dynasty had no senior shipbuilders and could not build shipyards; it had no naval generals and senior sailors, so it could not train naval troops, and building a fleet could only be a castle in the air.

Feng Prisonhuang also thought about whether it is possible to outsource the new type of outsourcing to Daxia to manufacture warships, but Daxia's shipyards scattered all over the country are busy building Z1 warships, and there is no time at all.

It would take too long to wait for the large ships and warships that the Great Xia Fleet had replaced.

And even if there are warships, it is useless without naval generals and senior crew members. Even if Daxia can support a group of instructors, it is not enough to support a fleet.

Because of this matter, Feng Prisonhuang was worried a lot.

The Battle of Hawaii brought dawn to the struggling Phoenix.

On the day when the prisoners of the Liberty Fleet were escorted to Yingzhou Province, Feng Prison Huang, who had a keen sense of smell, rushed to Shanhai City to test Ouyang Shuo's plan for disposing of the spoils.

Knowing that Ouyang Shuo is no different from expanding the navy, Feng Prison Huang was overjoyed, "Ouyang, sell them to me!"

"sell to you?"

Ouyang Shuo didn't react immediately.

"Yes!" Feng Prisonhuang couldn't hide his excitement, and said proudly: "Pack up and sell this batch of prisoners of war, warships, artillery, crew, etc. to Da Jin, and you can make a price!"

Only then did Ouyang Shuo suddenly realize, and said with a smile, "This is a good idea."

This deal is really done, it can be described as a win-win situation.

It's just that Daxia has only sold warships, but not "fleets", so how to negotiate the price is really hard to figure out. Fortunately, Ouyang Shuo is not a person who cares about every detail, so he made a rough estimate and said, "Then let's make a price of four million gold coins!"

The value of prisoners of war and crew members is the most difficult to evaluate. To Da Xia, it may be insignificant, but to Da Jin, it is worth a thousand dollars.

Ouyang Shuo's price was 4 million, which is really not expensive, it is already a friendship price.

"make a deal!"

Feng Prison Huang was also very forthright, and directly agreed to come down, and then said a little embarrassedly: "Ouyang Shuo, can this money be paid in two installments, and it can be taken out at once. The finances are a bit tight."

"No problem." Ouyang Shuo understood very well.

Even if it is Daxia, it would cost him 4 million gold coins at a time, not to mention the newly established Dajin. Ouyang Shuo was overwhelmed by Feng Prison and Huang's ability to pay in two payments.

After the matter was settled, the next thing was simple. Except for Nimitz being escorted back to Shanhai City, the remaining prisoners of war and warships were directly escorted to Hokkaido, waiting for reorganization on the spot.

The Great Jin Dynasty had a fleet of its own overnight.

Taking this opportunity, Ouyang Shuo also adjusted the location of the Pacific Fleet.

With Daxia occupying Kyushu Island and Shikoku Island, Ouyang Shuo decided to call the shots and handed over all patrol missions in the Bohai Sea, Yellow Sea, East China Sea and Dongying Sea to the Coastal Fleet.

The Pacific Fleet is only responsible for deep sea operations.

After the adjustment, the Pacific Fleet left only the first fleet stationed in Yingzhou Province, which is also the fleet headquarters; the second and third fleets are permanently stationed in Hawaii County, and the fourth fleet is responsible for opening up the South American route.

Ouyang Shuo planned that in the future, the Pacific Fleet could set up a stronghold on the South American continent, which would be used to station the fourth formation of the Pacific Fleet to complete a complete maritime defense chain.

The remaining fifth formation is naturally also used as a mobile training formation at sea, patrolling back and forth in various places.

After this round of adjustments, the layout of the Great Xia Navy in the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean has basically become complete, firmly grasping the sea dominance of the two oceans, and resolutely maintaining the Great Xia's maritime hegemony.

The next step is to focus on supporting the Atlantic Fleet.

…………

After dealing with the matter of the Maldives and Hawaii, Ouyang Shuo turned his attention back to the mainland.

Regarding the handling of the territory of the Kingdom of Jin, the Liao and Jin provinces were established in accordance with the court's practice. It is also the province with the largest territory in Daxia so far, four or five times the size of ordinary provinces.

The provincial government was naturally chosen in Ningfu, the old capital of the Kingdom of Jin.

What needs to be explained is that whether it is Huining Mansion, Hara Helin in Mongolia, or Luoxie City in Tubo, the biggest difference between them and the Nine Kings City is that there is no teleportation array.

Of course, there are no satellite cities.

This is why the Qing Dynasty had to go to great lengths to transport weapons and equipment to the Kingdom of Jin through sea routes. After conquering the Kingdom of Jin, it was quite difficult for Great Xia to govern the province of Nuoda.

For this reason, the imperial court had to assign an excellent governor to the Liao and Jin provinces, and after many selections, Ouyang Shuo finally delineated Huo Guang, the governor of Lingnan.

Huo Guang has both civil and military skills, he understands the way of governing the country, and has a tough soldier side, which is most suitable for guarding the frontier. He also has the experience of serving as the Governor of Lingnan, which is enough for a great job.

The vacancy left by Huo Guang as governor of Lingnan was filled by Wei Ran, governor of Chaozhou.

Wei Ran's success is in vain, and his decline is in vain. Bai Qi for his son-in-law, Wei Ran defected to Daxia, and was appointed as the prefect of Lianzhou right away.

But luck doesn't last long.

Because Wei Ran and Bai Qi, one civil and one military, are both at the core of the center, it is inevitable to attract rumors, and Wei Ran is greedy for money, so the script is a bit unclean.

As a result, he failed in the competition for the Shanhai Order, and Wei Ran was dispatched by Ouyang Shuo to serve in Chaozhou County, Lingnan Province.

It is said to be flat, but in fact it has been lowered by half a level, because Lianzhou County is the center of the imperial court, and its importance is several times higher than that of ordinary Chaozhou County.

After being assigned to Zhili, Shanhai Ling became a second-rank official, half a rank higher than the governor.

In this way, it can be regarded as a wake-up call for Ouyang Shuo to Wei Ran.

Fortunately, Wei Ran is very knowledgeable, he is conscientious in his post as governor of Chaozhou, and he has never been greedy for money. He is excellent in the annual assessment, and has been listed as one of the candidates for governor by Ouyang Shuo.

This time Huo Guang was transferred to Liaojin Province, and Wei Ran's promotion was logical.

It's just that in this way, Song Wen's loss is inevitable. If there was no such thing as Song Tianxiong before, Ouyang Shuo might take this opportunity to let Song Wen go to another level, the governor of Lingnan.

Appointing the governor of the province is only the first step in the transformation of the Liaojin province.

It was Ouyang Shuo's next move that surprised people and caused quite a stir in the court.
