Chapter 1167: Three Great War Zones

This round of personnel adjustments in the imperial court, don't look at the promotion of only one governor Du Sijing, and there are more than 100 new county guards and prefects, which can be called a round of major adjustments.

The officials who were promoted included the county commanders and prefects who stood out in the previous year's assessment, as well as the Beijing officials who went down to fill the vacancies in the local areas, as well as the local officials in the country of Pio, Johor, Java and Ethiopia.

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

It is even said that the imperial court also specially stipulated that in the newly established Hetao Province, Heluo Province and Ethiopia Province, local officials must account for more than one-third of the officials at the three levels of the county government and county.

Otherwise, it will not be possible 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 evaluation, it all depends on their personal ability and political performance. Even if he is demoted, he cannot complain about the injustice of the court.

…………

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

In the Wuying Palace, Ouyang Shuo was deliberating on a new round of military reorganization plan, and Han Xin, the rotating minister of the Military Aircraft Department, Du Ruhui, the minister of military affairs, and Gao Shun, the director of training in the Privy Council, were all listed.

This round of national war has yielded fruitful results, and the four major battlefields have each made gains.

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

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

Then there is the battlefield of the country of Pyu.

The Mauryan army fought soy sauce throughout the whole process, but the army of the Pi Kingdom fought very resolutely, with 220,000 royal city forbidden troops and 250,000 territorial troops, half of them killed in the battle, and only 230,000 prisoners of war.

The largest number of prisoners of war belonged to the Ethiopian battlefield.

The 500,000 Wangcheng forbidden army, together with the 500,000 territorial army, retreated one after another under the blows of the Great Xia army. As a result of this war, the Military Aircraft Division came to the conclusion that the combat effectiveness of African armies was generally lower than that of Asian armies.

This is an indisputable fact.

In the absence of external intervention, nearly 700,000 Ethiopian million-strong troops were captured.

Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo did not hesitate, and immediately ordered the release of half of the Ethiopian prisoners of war on the spot, and arranged for them to retire from active duty, or transfer to government service, or transfer to reserve, or others.

Great Xia's strategy of elite troops must be unswervingly implemented.

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

In view of this, the imperial court decided to upgrade the Luzon Corps to the Heluo Army and replenish the three corps. Zhang Han, the former commander of the Luzon Corps and general of Anbei, was promoted to the commander of the Heluo Army and awarded the rank of Erpinnan Lieutenant General.

The Hanoi Army is responsible for guarding Hanoi Province and Hetao Province, the Heluo Army is responsible for guarding Luzon Province and Heluo Province, and the Southern Xinjiang Army is responsible for guarding the vast Australian Province.

The three commanders of the Helok Army were all taken over by prisoner of war generals, one from Johor and two from the country of Pyu, all of whom were the country's top historical talents, and they could be regarded as making the best use of their talents.

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

The Privy Council and the Military Aircraft Department combined and suggested the formation of a border guard army in the interior, one to share the border defense pressure of the Tiger Army and the Leopard Tao Army, and the other to suppress the monster nests in the territory.

Otherwise, under the dual control of the monster lair and the border, elite divisions like the Tiger Army and the Leopard Tao Army will easily be tied up and cannot be easily mobilized.

If you can participate in the war this time, you can still use the help of [War Immunity Cards].

With the sixth round of system updates, Gaia strives to integrate the game world with the real world, and the chance of appearing as anti-heaven items like [War Immunity Cards] will only get smaller and smaller.

In this battle, they searched the treasury of Johor and other countries, but they did not find too bright treasures.

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

The imperial court decided to form the Xiangjiang Army, assist the Leopard Tao Army and the Tiger Ben Army, and be responsible for the garrison of Xiangnan Province, Jiangchuan Province, Minnan Province and Lingnan Province.

Zhang Xutuo, the former commander of the Fifth Army of the Leopard Tao Army and a famous general of 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 corps commanders of the Xiangjiang Army were either promoted by the generals of the Shaozhuang faction according to the custom, or by the new historical generals who joined the Great Xia, and there was no shortage of generals in the Great Xia at this time.

After the formation of the Xiangjiang Army, the remaining 40,000 prisoners of war were placed in the North African town guards, secretly trained as musketeers, and also underwent training in maritime subjects.

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.

The highest standards will be adopted for this reconstruction.

Ouyang Shuo hopes that the Atlantic Fleet, which has been reborn from the ashes, will one day return to the Atlantic battlefield, and will be ashamed of the past and raise the prestige of Great Xia.

At this point, the reorganization of the armed forces has come to an end for the time being.

This is not over, in addition to forming an army, taking this opportunity, Ouyang Shuo has made another big move.

At Ouyang Shuo's suggestion, the imperial court decided to establish the North China Theater, which included the provinces of southern Hunan, Jiangchuan, southern Fujian, Lingnan and Yizhou.

On the whole, the North China Theater was the front line against the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The purpose of setting up the theater is precisely to integrate the military forces in the region, form a joint force, strengthen the coordinated combat capability between the group armies, and lay the foundation for attacking the Great Zhou Dynasty in the future.

It can be seen that Ouyang Shuo has officially put the destruction of the Great Zhou Dynasty on the agenda.

The matter of Morocco province made Ouyang Shuo realize the great significance of "first securing the interior before opening up the outside world", and if the hidden dangers of the Chinese region are not cleared, the road of external expansion in Daxia will be stumbling and looking forward to it.

The Blind Tiger Army, the Leopard Tao Army, and the newly formed Xiangjiang Army in the North China Theater were no worse than those of the previously established Southwest Theater because they included two elite divisions.

The commander of the theater was promoted by Han Xin, the commander of the Leopard Tao Army, and according to the usual practice, Han Xin will also hold the position of commander of the Leopard Tao Army, but after being promoted to the commander of the theater, the military rank will be promoted to general.

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

In addition to the establishment of the North China Theater, Ouyang Shuo simply took one step and followed the establishment of the Northwest Theater, which included Shudi Province, Yunnan Province and Northern Sichuan Province.

The remaining southern Sichuan provinces belong to the Zhili District and are guarded by the city guards.

With the establishment of the two major theaters, the military cooperation between the provinces of the dynasty will surely rise to a new height, whether it is to deal with the emerging monsters or foreign wars, it is very beneficial.

From now on, there will be no more defensive corners in the Great Xia territory.

The commander of the Northwest Theater was promoted to General Li Jing, the rotating minister of the Military Aircraft Department, the commander of the Flying Bear Army, and the general.

Under the unified command of Li Jing, the Flying Bear Army and the Eagle Yang Army will be able to cooperate in a unified manner, whether it is to besiege the Shu Han Dynasty internally and clean up the monster lair, or to conquer Western Xia 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 they are also the commanders of the three major theaters, which completely established the status of the three in the army, which is unshakable.

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

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

In order to set up a theater command, it is necessary to have a large number of professional military personnel, and the fields of logistics, training, intelligence, and operational staff must be fully equipped and strengthened.

Some officers were drawn from the Privy Council or the military aircraft, and the rest had to be drawn from the army.

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

As early as after Bai Qi joined the territory, the Great Xia Army opened the road of specialization, and today, the battalion and brigade levels are equipped with special logistics officers and staff officers.

The reserve of qualified personnel in the military is still very sufficient.

It is precisely because of this that Ouyang Shuo has the confidence to set up two war zones at once, so as not to say that the war zone is just an empty shelf and cannot really operate.

When the two theaters of war are on the right track, the workload of the military aircraft department will also be greatly shared.
