Chapter 1169

In this round of personnel adjustments by the imperial court, although only Du Sijing was promoted as a governor, there were more than a hundred new county guards and magistrates, which can be called a round of major adjustments.

Among the promoted officials were county magistrates and magistrates who stood out in the previous assessment, and some Beijing officials went down to fill vacancies, as well as local officials from Pyu, Johor, Java, and Ethiopia.

For these local officials, as long as they are innocent, the court will still reuse them.

It even goes so far as to say that the imperial court also specifically stipulated that in the newly established Hetao Province, Heluo Province, and Ethiopian Province, local officials must account for more than one-third of the three-level government officials in prefectures and counties.

Otherwise, it is impossible to win the hearts of the people.

As for whether these local officials can be promoted in the future or eliminated in the next round of assessment, it all depends on their personal ability and political achievements. Even if you are demoted, you can't blame the court for injustice.

…………

On May 1st of the sixth year of Gaia, Shanhai City.

In the Hall of Martial Heroes, Ouyang Shuo was deliberating a new round of army reorganization plan. Han Xin, Minister of Military Affairs, Du Ruhui, Minister of Military Affairs, and Gao Shun, Director of Training of the Privy Council, were on the list one by one.

This round of the national war has achieved fruitful results, and each of the four major battlefields has gained something.

In the first battle of Johor, the 120,000 Johor royal city guards and the 150,000 territorial army, except for the dead, the remaining 200,000 troops all surrendered.

In the battle of Java, because the resistance of the Padang Territory army was not very active, the three islands combined only captured 80,000 people.

Then there is the Pyu battlefield.

The army of the Peacock Dynasty fought soy sauce all the way, but the Pyu army fought very resolutely. Half of the 220,000 imperial city guards and 250,000 territorial troops died in the battle, and only 230,000 prisoners of war.

The largest number of prisoners of war is still in the Ethiopian battlefield.

The 500,000 Royal City Forbidden Army, together with the 500,000 Territory Army, retreated repeatedly under the attack of the Great Xia Army. After this battle, the Military Aircraft Department came to a conclusion that the combat effectiveness of African armies is generally lower than that of Asian armies.

This is the truth.

In the absence of external intervention, nearly 700,000 people from Ethiopia's million-strong army were captured.

Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo did not hesitate at all, and immediately ordered that half of the Ethiopian prisoners of war be released on the spot, and arranged for them to retire from active duty, or be transferred to government servants, or transferred to the reserve army, or other.

Great Xia's elite soldier strategy must be unswervingly implemented.

The remaining 860,000 prisoners of war, after excluding the wounded and unqualified soldiers, and supplementing the battle losses of the West African Army, East African Army, Hanoi Army and other participating armies, there are finally nearly 600,000 people left.

In view of this, the imperial court decided to upgrade the Luzon Corps to the Heluo Army and supplement the three legions. Zhang Han, the former head of the Lusong Corps and general of Anbei, was promoted to the commander of the Heluo Army and awarded the rank of second-rank Nanzhong General.

There are three border defense forces in the Southwest Theater, the Hanoi Army is responsible for guarding Hanoi and Hetao provinces, the Heluo Army is responsible for guarding Luzon and Heluo Provinces, and the Southern Border Army is responsible for guarding the vast Australian province.

The three commanders of the Heluo Army were all taken over by prisoners of war generals. One was from Johor and the other two were from Pyu.

In addition to supplementing the three legions of the Heluo Army, the remaining prisoners of war can also be reorganized into a group army.

The Privy Council and the Military Aircraft Department combined and suggested to form a border defense army in the interior, one to share the border defense pressure of the Huben Army and the Leopard Army, and the other to suppress the monster lairs in the territory.

Otherwise, under the double restraint of the monster lair and the border, elite troops like the Huben Army and the Baotao Army will be easily tied up and cannot be easily mobilized.

To be able to participate in the battle this time, it is still with the help of the [War Immunity Card].

With the sixth round of system updates, Gaia strives to bring the game world into line with the real world, and the chances of such heaven-defying props like [War Immunity Card] appearing will only become smaller and smaller.

In this battle, the treasuries of Johor and other countries were searched, but no too dazzling treasures were found.

Ouyang Shuo agreed with the Privy Council's proposal, so the matter was settled.

The imperial court decided to form the Xiangjiang Army to assist the Baotao Army and the Huben Army, and be responsible for the garrison of Hunan Province, Jiangchuan Province, Southern Fujian Province, and Lingnan Province.

Zhang Xutuo, the former commander of the Fifth Army of the Baotao Army and a famous general in the Sui Dynasty, was promoted to the commander of the Xiangjiang Army and awarded the rank of general of the second-rank Chinese Army.

The five regiment commanders of the Xiangjiang Army were either promoted by the generals of the young and strong faction according to the usual practice, or were appointed by historical generals who had newly joined the Great Xia. At this time, the Great Xia did not lack independent generals.

After the establishment of the Xiangjiang Army, the remaining 40,000 prisoners of war were placed in the North African tutelary fort, where they were secretly trained as musketeers and also received maritime training.

After the destruction of the Atlantic Fleet, Ouyang Shuo was very unwilling and had instructed the Navy Command to start the reconstruction of the Atlantic Fleet.

This reconstruction will adopt the highest standard.

Ouyang Shuo hoped that the Atlantic Fleet, reborn from the ashes, would one day return to the Atlantic battlefield, avenge its shame, and show off the power of Great Xia.

So far, the reorganization of the army has come to an end.

This is not over yet. Apart from forming an army, Ouyang Shuo took advantage of this opportunity to make another big move.

Under Ouyang Shuo's proposal, the imperial court decided to set up the Southeast War Zone, which included Hunan Province, Jiangchuan Province, Fujian Province, Lingnan Province and Yizhou County.

Overall, the Southeast Theater is the front line against the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The purpose of setting up the war zone is to integrate the military forces in the area, form a joint force, strengthen the coordinated combat capability among the group armies, and lay the foundation for the future attack on the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It can be seen from this that Ouyang Shuo has officially put on the agenda to defeat the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The incident in the Morocco province made Ouyang Shuo realize the great significance of "to fight against the outside world, we must first settle down at home". If the hidden dangers in the Huaxia region are not cleared, the road of Daxia's external expansion will still be bumpy.

The Blind Huben Army, Baotao Army, and the newly formed Xiangjiang Army in the southeast theater, because they include two elite divisions, their overall combat power is no worse than that of the previously established southwest theater.

The commander of the theater is promoted by Han Xin, the commander of the Baotao Army. According to the usual practice, Han Xin will also serve as the commander of the Baotao Army.

In this way, it also matches Han Xin's status as the rotating minister of the Military Aircraft Department.

In addition to setting up the Southeast War Zone, Ouyang Shuo decided to set up the Northwest War Zone in one step. The area under his jurisdiction included Shu Province, Yunnan Province, and Northern Sichuan Province.

The remaining southern Sichuan Province belongs to the Zhili District, which is guarded by the city guards.

With the establishment of the two major war zones, the military cooperation between the dynasty's provinces will rise to a new level, whether it is dealing with the ever-emerging monsters or fighting abroad, it will be very beneficial.

From now on, there will be no dead ends in the Great Xia territory.

There are two elite divisions under the Northwest Theater, the Flying Bear Army and the Yingyang Army. The commander of the theater is the rotating minister of the Military Aircraft Department, the commander of the Feixiong Army, and the general Li Jing was promoted.

Under the unified command of Li Jing, the Flying Bear Army and the Yingyang Army can cooperate in a unified manner. Whether it is besieging the Shuhan Dynasty internally and cleaning up monster lairs, or conquering Xixia and Tubo externally, the efficiency will be improved.

The three generals, Bai Qi, Han Xin, and Li Jing, are also the three rotating ministers of the Military Aircraft Department, and the commanders-in-chief of the three major war zones. They have completely established their positions in the army and are unshakable.

Of course, the theater cannot be in place in one step.

The biggest difference between the theater and the group army is that there is a relatively fixed headquarters, and the overall structure combines the dual functions of the Military Aircraft Department and the Privy Council.

In order to form a theater command, a large number of professional military personnel are needed, and logistics, training, intelligence, and operational staff must be well-equipped and strong.

Some officers are drawn from the Privy Council or military aircraft, and the rest can only be drawn from the army.

In addition to fighting, the group army also bears the burden of training military personnel.

As early as after Bai Qi joined the territory, the Great Xia Army began to specialize. Today, even battalions and brigades are equipped with special logistics officers and staff officers.

The talent reserve in the military is still very sufficient.

It was because of this that Ouyang Shuo had the confidence to set up two major theaters at once, not to say that the theaters were just for display and could not be truly operated.

When the two war zones are on the right track, the workload of the Military Aircraft Department will also be greatly shared.
