Three days later, the show of forcing the Feng family to abdicate finally came to an end.
The Yan Huang Alliance provided a Black Iron Village Creation Token, and Feng Wu's brother, Feng Tianlie, built Fengxiang Village in the Luoyang region. All the family members in Luo Feng County moved to Fengxiang Village.
Apart from Feng Qiuhuang's best friend, Qing Luan, the Vermillion Bird, Black Swan, and Snow Goose were forced to move to Fengxiang Village. After Ouyang Shuo received the news, he immediately kicked the three out of the Alliance channel.
As soon as Fengxiang Village was established, it was accepted as a new member of the Yan Huang Alliance.
In a short period of time, Luo Feng County suffered heavy losses. They lost tens of thousands of people, and their territory was almost paralyzed. They also owed Shanhai County a huge debt.
In order to raise funds, Ouyang Shuo had no choice but to collect Shanhai County's income from the first half of August. He had collected 8,500 gold coins, and in addition to the 14000 gold coins he had previously, he had a total of 22500 gold coins.
Ouyang Shuo lent Luo Feng County 20000 gold. Of course, this money was transferred through the Bank of the Four Seas branch in Luo Feng County.
20,000 gold for two years, and the repayment would be 1418 gold each month. Just like Xunlong County, the repayment would be automatically transferred to the Bank of the Four Seas branch's reserve.
Ouyang Shuo did this because he didn't want to kill the goose that laid the golden eggs. This way, Feng Qiuhuang and Xunlong Point could use the repayment to rebuild their territory, and it wouldn't drag down the territory's development. The price they paid was the territory's economic lifeline. If everything went according to plan, the territory would gradually be controlled by the Bank of the Four Seas.
When the last batch of players left, Ouyang Shuo stayed by Feng Qiuhuang's side. The strange thing was that Feng Qiuhuang didn't show any sadness. Instead, he looked relieved.
As they faced the setting sun, Feng Qiuhuang suddenly turned around and revealed a relaxed and brilliant smile to Ouyang Shuo. That smile was filled with the feeling of having his shackles removed and finally obtaining freedom, and it was filled with the joy of obtaining new life, causing it to be unforgettable.
In that instant, Ouyang Shuo was slightly dazed. He seemed to see a proud phoenix being reborn in the midst of raging flames.
At that moment, Ouyang Shuo was completely relieved.
"Hey, why do I feel like I've been used?" Ouyang Shuo feigned dissatisfaction.
Feng Qiuhuang turned around. Her exquisite face was radiant as she smiled coquettishly and said, "You are a man. Don't mind these details. I will repay you."
"How do I repay you?"
"How about I give myself to you?"
"Cough, cough," Ouyang Shuo choked and said with a wry smile, "I say, Eldest Miss, can you not casually make this kind of joke? It will scare people to death."
"What? Feeling guilty?! Don't worry, I won't tell Song Jia. "Feng Qiuhuang smiled faintly.
Ouyang Shuo shook his head. "Stop! Can't we just be friends? "
"Ah Xi, am I that unattractive?" Feng Qiuhuang was originally joking, but seeing Ouyang Shuo's reaction, her pride was completely hurt. Women were very sensitive in this aspect.
Ouyang Shuo raised his hands in surrender and said fawningly, "If you dare say that the number one beauty of the China region is unattractive, then I don't want to live anymore. I will be killed by your fans."
Ouyang Shuo had a reason for saying this. Not long ago, the top ten beauties of the China region was finally released by some busybodies on the forums and received a considerable amount of recognition.
Feng Qiuhuang won the championship and gained countless fans in a single night.
Feng Qiuhuang smiled. "It's good that you know."
The moment Ouyang Shuo was teleported away, Feng Qiuhuang suddenly said, "Wuyi, thank you!" Ouyang Shuo's body paused, but he didn't turn around. He waved his hand and turned into a ray of white light, disappearing from the teleportation array.
"Big sister, how can you say that Wuyi is a blockhead? He actually ignored big sister's charm." Qing Luan felt indignant for Feng Qiuhuang. When the two were talking, she had been standing by the side.
Feng Qiuhuang smiled bitterly and shook her head. "I can see that Wuyi is a loyal person. You didn't participate in the Battle of Muye this time, so you didn't see his girlfriend, Song Jia. She is also an absolute beauty. "Her tone still contained a trace of loneliness. Which girl didn't yearn for love?!
… …
Handan County.
"Grandfather, I don't understand."
"What don't you understand?"
"I don't understand. Why did you let Feng Qiuhuang go so easily? Why did you give up the opportunity to attack the Shanhai Alliance?"
"Do you think that the attack wasn't enough?"
"Of course it wasn't enough. Feng Qiuhuang used 20,000 gold coins to buy a Silver Grade Village Creation Token, and he even used it half a year earlier. He didn't make a loss at all. What kind of attack is this?!" Di Chen was indignant.
"You, you're still too one-sided. Haven't you noticed that the price of food in the market has already started to rise, and the territory's food reserves are almost depleted? "Di Chen's grandfather said with a look of exasperation.
Di Chen froze. "Grandfather, what do you mean?"
"20,000 gold coins is not a small amount. No matter how rich Shanhai County is, it will definitely use up all of its liquid funds. Shanhai County has the highest population in China, and its demand for food is also the highest. Once the price of food rises, he won't be able to say that he doesn't have money to spare. Let's see what he can do then. "The old man was very confident.
Di Chen understood and immediately flattered, "Grandfather, you're really thoughtful."
… …
After Ouyang Shuo returned to the territory, he immediately gathered all the generals and held a military meeting.
He pointed out bluntly, "Following the territory's promotion, the population of our headquarters has exceeded the 50,000 mark. We have the objective conditions to expand our army again."
None of the generals had any objections to the expansion. The last time Shanhai County had expanded its army was three months ago, when it had just been promoted to a Level 1 County. As a Level 2 County, Shanhai County had not expanded its army on a large scale, so now was the right time to expand its army.
According to Ouyang Shuo's intentions, he wanted to adjust the structure of the county's army once and for all during this military meeting. This was to prevent the frequent reorganization of the army, which would affect the army's fighting strength and morale.
Ouyang Shuo looked around and said, "I've decided to officially establish the Shanhai County's First Division, with five brigades and a direct subordinate company, totaling 13,500 people."
All the generals were shocked. They did not expect their lord to be so generous. One had to know that Shanhai County currently only had one mixed brigade. Adding another four brigades and a direct subordinate company was simply too much.
The head of the military bureau, Ge Hongliang, braced himself and said, "Lord, Shanhai County's population is not enough to support a division. Do you think we should form one or two brigades first, and then form a division when the time is right? "
Ouyang Shuo shook his head and said, "Don't worry, Head Ge. The division is not meant to be full immediately. If nothing goes wrong, the first division will be the main force in the county. "
Ouyang Shuo's words completely dispelled everyone's worries. The upper limit of a Level 3 County was a hundred thousand people, and with the additional territory, it was more than enough to support a division.
After reaching an agreement, Ouyang Shuo announced his army reorganization plan, "The mixed brigade stationed at the West Barracks will be renamed as the first division's first brigade, with General Shi still as the brigade commander. The vanguard battalion stationed at the North Barracks will be expanded by two more cavalry battalions, and will be upgraded to a vanguard brigade, the first division's second brigade. "
"Lin Yi!"
"Here!" Lin Yi stepped out of the ranks.
"You will be the brigade commander of the first division's second brigade. You will be fully responsible for the formation of the second brigade."
Although he had a premonition, Lin Yi was still a little excited to be officially appointed as a brigade commander, "Thank you for the promotion, Lord. I will not let you down!" Brigade commanders needed mid-level generals, and Lin Yi was just the right person for it.
Ouyang Shuo nodded and continued, "Set up the East Barracks at the East Barracks, in charge of the strategic defense of the east side of the territory. Similarly, set up the first division's third brigade in the East Barracks, and each battalion will be based on the West Barracks, forming two heavy infantry battalions, one cavalry battalion, one spearman battalion, and one archer battalion. The original cavalry battalion of the Pool Water Barracks will be incorporated into the third brigade, and will be renamed as the third battalion of the third brigade. "
In fact, when the cavalry battalion of the Pool Water Barracks was established, it was already foreshadowing the establishment of the East Barracks. Initially, the newly formed cavalry battalion was not under the command of the Pool Water Barracks, and belonged to the field army.
Ouyang Shuo turned his head and looked at E Lai, who was attending the military meeting for the first time. He smiled and said, "General E Lai, I appoint you as the commander of the East Barracks, and at the same time, as the brigade commander of the third brigade."
"Yes!" E Lai stepped out of the ranks and bowed.
No one objected to E Lai's appointment, and it was a well-deserved title.
"Due to the uniqueness of the heavy infantry battalion, we need to select elite barbarian warriors. Hence, the third brigade will only form a spearman battalion and an archer battalion from the reserves for the time being. The two heavy infantry battalions will be held back for now, and when the time is right, they will be formed again. " E Lai had just arrived at Shanhai County, and did not have a thorough understanding of the territory's situation. Ouyang Shuo felt that it was necessary to explain.
E Lai nodded, indicating that he understood.
"As for the first division's fourth and fifth brigades, they will be held back for now, and will not be formed for the time being." Ouyang Shuo said helplessly. The lack of intermediate generals made Ouyang Shuo powerless, and he could not find anyone who could be the brigade commander. He looked around at the generals, and said in a deep voice, "Here, I promise everyone that the first beginner general to be promoted to an intermediate general will be the one to be the brigade commander. I hope that everyone will work hard, and do not disappoint me. "
Zhao Sihu and the rest looked ashamed, as they were unable to share the burden of their lord, and it was a dereliction of duty.
Ouyang Shuo continued, "I will temporarily hold the position of the first division's commander. The Lord's personal guards will be promoted to the personal guards battalion, and Wang Feng will be the battalion commander." Ouyang Shuo looked at his personal guard captain, and said, "Wang Feng!"
"Here!"
"Although the personal guard battalion will be expanded, the standards for selecting members cannot be lowered. I don't need you to do everything in one go, but you must strive for perfection, understand?" Ouyang Shuo did not wish for the strength of this trump card troop to decline because of the expansion.
"Understood!" Wang Feng said solemnly. (To be continued.)
