Chapter 1121: Make a Bid! (12/18)
First, the construction of Hawaii will fall on the prisoners of war and warships of the Freedom Fleet.
After replenishing the battle damage, this batch of loot can be reorganized into at least two and a half formations, that is, half a fleet. Ouyang Shuo currently has no intention of expanding the Great Xia Naval Division, and how to deal with this batch of prisoners of war and warships has become a tricky matter.
Fortunately, at this time, the phoenix prisoner solved this problem for him.
Although the Great Jin Dynasty of the Phoenix Prisoner is inland, there is also an overseas base such as Hokkaido. In view of the prosperity of ocean trade, the trend of trade globalization is irreversible, and the phoenix prisoner is naturally unwilling to be left behind.
To form a water division, it is imperative to make a big jin.
However, the Great Jin Dynasty had no senior shipbuilders and could not afford to build a shipyard; Second, the generals and senior sailors of the navy division cannot train the troops of the navy division, and the formation of the fleet can only be a castle in the air.
Phoenix Prisoner also thought about whether he could entrust Great Xia to manufacture warships in the new form of outsourcing, but the shipyards distributed in Great Xia were busy building Z1 warships, and they couldn't spare time at all.
If you want to wait for the Great Xia fleet to replace the building ships and battleships, it will take too long.
And even if there are warships, it is in vain to have no naval generals and senior sailors, and even if Great Xia can fund a group of instructors, it is not enough to support a fleet.
For this matter, the phoenix prisoner was not less worried.
The Battle of Hawaii brings light to the beleaguered phoenix.
On the day that the captives of the Free Fleet were escorted to Yingzhou Province, the phoenix prisoner with a keen sense of smell rushed to Shanhai City to test Ouyang Shuo's plan for the disposal of this batch of loot.
Knowing that Ouyang Shuo was no different from expanding the water division, the phoenix prisoner was overjoyed, "Ouyang, sell them to me!" ”
"Sold to you?"
Ouyang Shuo didn't react for a moment.
"yes!" The phoenix prisoner couldn't hide his excitement, and said arrogantly: "Pack and sell these prisoners of war, warships, artillery, crews, etc. to Dajin, you can make a price!" ”
Ouyang Shuo suddenly said with a smile: "This is a good idea. ”
The deal did happen, and it was a win-win.
It's just that Great Xia has only sold warships, but not the "fleet", so how to negotiate is really hard to calculate. Fortunately, Ouyang Shuo is not a person who cares, so after a rough estimate, he said, "Then let's make it for four million gold coins!" ”
The value of prisoners of war and crew members is the most difficult to assess, and it may be insignificant to Great Xia, but for Great Jin, it is a thousand gold.
Ouyang Shuo's price of four million is really not expensive, it is already a friendship price.
"Deal!"
The phoenix prisoner was also very bold, and directly agreed, and when he came, he said a little embarrassedly: "Ouyang Shuo, can this money be paid in two installments, take it out at once, the finances are a little tight." ”
"No problem." Ouyang Shuo understood very well.
Even if it is Great Xia, it will have to cut the meat if it takes out four million gold coins at one time, not to mention the Great Jin that has just been established. The phoenix prisoner can pay off twice, which has already made Ouyang Shuo look at it.
After the matter was settled, the next thing was simple, except for Nimitz who was escorted back to Shanhai Castle, the remaining prisoners of war and warships were directly escorted to Hokkaido, waiting for reorganization on the spot.
Overnight, the Great Jin Dynasty had a fleet of its own.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ouyang Shuo also made some adjustments to the location of the Pacific Fleet.
With the occupation of Kyushu Island and Shikoku Island in Great Xia, Ouyang Shuo simply took the lead and handed over the patrol tasks of the Bohai Sea, the Yellow Sea, the East China Sea, and the Dongying Sea to the coastal fleet.
The Pacific Fleet is only responsible for deep-sea operations.
After the adjustment, only the first formation of the Pacific Fleet was left to be stationed in Yingzhou Province, which was also the fleet headquarters; The second and third formations are stationed in Hawaii County, and the fourth formation is responsible for opening up the South American shipping route.
Ouyang Shuo plans that in the future, the Pacific Fleet can build a stronghold on the South American continent and be used to station the fourth formation of the Pacific Fleet to complete a complete maritime defense chain.
The remaining Fifth Formation naturally also served as a maritime mobile training formation, patrolling back and forth in various places.
After this round of adjustments, the layout of the Bactrian naval division in the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean has basically become complete, firmly grasping the sea control of the two oceans, and resolutely maintaining the maritime hegemony of the Great Xia.
The next step is to focus on supporting the Atlantic Fleet.
…………
After dealing with the Maldives and Hawaii affairs, Ouyang Shuo turned his attention back to the mainland.
The disposition of the territory of the Jin State, in accordance with the practice of the imperial court, established the Liaojin Province, which is also the province with the most extensive territory in Daxia so far, four or five times the area of ordinary provinces.
The provincial governance office is naturally chosen in Ningfu, the old capital of Jinguo.
It should be noted that whether it is Huining Mansion, or Hala and Lin in Mongolia, or Luo Some Cities in Tibet, the biggest difference between them and the Nine Great Kings is that there is no teleportation array.
Of course, there are no satellite towns.
It is precisely because of this that the Qing Dynasty had to go to great lengths to transport weapons and equipment to the Jin State by sea. After conquering the Kingdom of Jin, it was not easy for Great Xia to govern a large province.
For this reason, the imperial court had to equip Liaojin Province with an excellent governor to choose from, and Ouyang Shuo finally circled Huo Guang, the governor of Lingnan.
Huo Guang has both civil and military skills, not only understands the way of governing the country, but also has the fierce side of a soldier, and is the most suitable for guarding the frontier, and has the experience of being the governor of Lingnan, which is enough to be worthy of a great task.
The vacancy of the governor of Lingnan left by Huo Guang was filled by Wei Ran, the county guard of Chaozhou.
Wei Ran is growth is also white, and decay is also white. Rushing to his son-in-law Bai Qi, Wei Ran defected to Daxia, and was appointed as the county guard of Lianzhou as soon as he came, and he was unique for a while.
But the good luck didn't last long.
Because Wei Ran and Bai Qi, one writer and one martial arts, are both in the center, it is inevitable to cause rumors, and Wei Ran is greedy for money, so the script is a little unclean.
As a result, he lost the competition for the Shanhai Order, and Wei Ran was assigned by Ouyang Shuo to serve in Chaozhou County, Lingnan Province.
It is said that it is 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 was even more senior from the second rank, half a level higher than the governor.
In this way, it can be regarded as Ouyang Shuo's wake-up call to Wei Ran.
Fortunately, Wei Ran is knowledgeable, conscientious and conscientious in keeping his post in Chaozhou County, and there is no greed for money, and he is excellent in the annual assessment, and he has been listed by Ouyang Shuo as one of the candidates for the governor.
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 it weren't for Song Tianxiong's previous incident, Ouyang Shuo might take this opportunity to let Song Wen go to the next level, Governor Lingnan.
The designation of the governor of the province is only the first step in the transformation of Liaojin Province.
Ouyang Shuo's next move was a big surprise, and it caused a lot of waves in the imperial court.
