Other than forming the Dragon Xiang Legion, Ouyang Shuo also formed the second legion, the Tiger Legion.
Ouyang Shuo decreed that Sun Bin would be given the title of 'Great General' and be appointed as the commander of the Tiger Legion. Great General was the highest honor for a general, followed by Great General and then the other generals.
Sun Bin was the second general after Bai Qi to receive the title of Great General.
The Tiger Legion only had two divisions for the time being.
The First Division would be led by Fan Lihua. The targets were mainly the prisoners of war from the Yan Huang Alliance, which was a mixed infantry and cavalry division.
The Second Division would be led by Dai Qin. The targets were mainly the elite cavalry of the Grassland Alliance Army that had surrendered, which was a cavalry division.
The configuration of the two divisions was basically the same as the Dragon Xiang Legion's First and Second Divisions.
Other than the ordinary soldiers, there were also a group of mid-level generals who were responsible for the reorganization of the prisoners of war. Among them, there were the generals of the allied forces and the surrendered generals of the Grassland Alliance.
Ouyang Shuo also had arrangements for these surrendered generals.
The general principle was to cross posts.
For example, the two Brigade Marshals of the Dragon Xiang Legion's Second Division, Sun Tengjiao and the Shadow Cavalry, would be transferred to the Tiger Legion's Second Division and would still be Brigade Marshals.
Of the seven generals of the Grassland Alliance Army, one died and one was seriously injured in the battle of Lianzhou. After consulting with Dai Qin, there was one who was not suitable to be a Brigade Marshal.
As for the remaining four, three of them were assigned to the Dragon Xiang Legion's Second Division, while the last one was assigned to the Tiger Legion's Second Division, serving under Dai Qin.
The remaining two Brigade Marshals of the Tiger Legion's Second Division would be promoted from the surrendered generals.
Similarly, the Dragon Xiang Legion's First Division and the Tiger Legion's First Division would also have to cross posts. Zhao Yan and Li Mingliang would be transferred to the Tiger Legion's First Division.
The remaining vacancies would either be filled by the surrendered generals or promoted from the Battalion Marshals. The three Battalion Marshals, Guo Liang, Su Wang and Liao Kai, were all promoted.
The promotion of a group of old generals ensured Ouyang Shuo's control over the two legions.
The headquarters of the Tiger Legion was not located in Lianzhou County, but in Cliff Mountain City, which was across the sea.
When the North Sea Fleet returned, the Tiger Legion would be stationed in Cliff Mountain City with the third migration fleet.
Jingzhou Island was the real battlefield of the Tiger Troop.
Conquering Cliff Prefecture not only met the expectations of Sun Bin and Dai Qin, but also coincided with where Fan Lihua belonged.
Such an arrangement could be said to be a stroke of genius.
As soon as Cliff Mountain City was established, it was guarded by two large field combat divisions.
Ouyang Shuo believed that ordinary native tribes wouldn't dare to rashly go against Cliff Mountain City. When the Tiger Troop was in place, Cliff Mountain City would welcome a period of rapid development.
At this point, the adjustment of the army finally came to an end.
Ouyang Shuo completed the military structure and personnel arrangement. The remaining work was handed over to the military administration.
In the afternoon, Ouyang Shuo gave himself a holiday.
Ever since the first day of the first month, he had been busy meeting people from all over the world without a moment of rest.
Half a day of leisure in a fleeting life.
Tomorrow, Ouyang Shuo would be busy again. According to his proposal, the members of the Tianshan Sea Alliance would gather in Shanhai City tomorrow to hold the annual alliance meeting.
Apart from the various Lords, Ouyang Shuo had also invited the guilds related to the Alliance of Mountains and Seas, including Snow Mourning Rose, Cool Breeze Pavilion, Rain Listening Pavilion, and the Rattlesnake Mercenary Group.
Rain Listening Pavilion was the guild that secretly cooperated with Feng Qiuhuang.
After the promotion of Fallen Phoenix City, Feng Qiuhuang announced the relationship between her and the master of Rain Listening Pavilion, Sword Qi Thunderous. It was with the help of Rain Listening Pavilion that Feng Qiuhuang was one step ahead of White Birch and completed the promotion of her territory.
Long before the Feng family split, Feng Qiuhuang had started to secretly support Rain Listening Pavilion.
Because of her grudge with the leader of Unparalleled Sword Qi, One Sword from the West, Sword Qi Thunderous left in a fit of anger and founded Breeze Pavilion alone to fight against the veteran guild Unparalleled Sword Qi.
In the early days of Breeze Pavilion's establishment, it was extremely difficult for Sword Qi Thunderous to be a woman. Feng Qiuhuang had a unique insight. Although it was her first time playing a game, she had a keen eye for investment.
Feng Qiuhuang took the initiative to find Sword Qi Thunderous and expressed that she could secretly support the development of Breeze Pavilion.
Just like that, the two strong women teamed up.
Even after the Feng family split, Sword Qi Thunderous did not give up on their cooperation.
Their cooperation withstood the test and their relationship became more and more solid.
When Feng Qiuhuang first found Sword Qi Thunderous and took the initiative to express goodwill to Ouyang Shuo, they both had the same goal, which was to accumulate strength in order to break away from the control of the family.
Reality proved that Feng Qiuhuang's strategy was extremely successful.
It had to be said that Feng Qiuhuang was truly ingenious in the operation of the big picture. In his previous life, Feng Qiuhuang was ranked first among the top ten beauties of the China region, not only because of her peerless beauty.
… …
In the back garden of the Marquis's Mansion, Ouyang Shuo casually sat in a pavilion.
On the grass outside the pavilion, Bing'er brought a group of children to play the game of Eagle Catching Chicks.
Some of these children were natives, and some were the children of players.
The world of children was different from that of adults.
In their eyes, there was no difference between themselves and the natives. They were all friends.
If there were really powerful children who looked down on the natives, it was the result of the adults' instigation.
Ouyang Shuo was very happy that Bing'er could make friends.
In the afternoon, when he was free, Ouyang Shuo specially asked Bing'er to invite her friends to the back garden to play together. In the garden, other than all kinds of beautiful scenery, Zisu also prepared all kinds of fruits and exquisite pastries.
It was a very happy thing for the children to be able to play in the Marquis's Mansion.
Usually, the back garden of the Marquis's Mansion was definitely a forbidden area for them.
"Brother!"
Bing'er ran over with her forehead covered in sweat. Her expression was extremely happy, and her little face was flushed.
"Darling, you must be tired!"
Ouyang Shuo handed the little girl a towel and let her wipe her sweat.
"I'm not tired!"
The little girl took the towel, wiped herself twice, and was about to run out again.
What a dirty monkey!
Ouyang Shuo smiled bitterly and stopped the little girl, saying, "You've played for so long, why don't you go and call your friends to rest in the pavilion?! The food that Sister Zisu prepared for you guys hasn't been eaten yet! "
"Okay!"
It would have been fine if her brother didn't mention it. Once he mentioned food, Bing'er was really a little hungry.
The little girl turned around and ran back to the grass to call her friends.
In an instant, more than ten children ran to the pavilion.
Among these children, the oldest was no more than ten years old, and the youngest was only six or seven years old. It was the age of innocence. When they ran to the pavilion, they didn't forget to greet Ouyang Shuo.
They called him by a variety of names.
"Uncle!"
"Brother!"
"Marquis!"
…
Those who called him Marquis were all native children.
When their parents learned that their children were invited by the little princess and could be a guest in the Marquis's Mansion, not to mention how glorious it was, they couldn't wait to let the whole neighborhood know.
Before they left, they repeatedly told their children to salute when they saw the Marquis.
Ouyang Shuo nodded at them one by one and personally entertained them.
At Bing'er's age, her worldview was slowly forming. Ouyang Shuo would not neglect her friends. If he did, it would be worse than offending the little girl herself.
Sure enough, seeing her brother warmly entertain her friends, the little girl stood at the side and smiled sweetly.
There was a little girl who was only six and a half years old. She had a round face, big eyes, and long eyelashes. She was very cute. When Ouyang Shuo saw her, he couldn't help but pick up the little girl and put her on his lap.
The little girl was not shy and kept giggling.
Her crisp voice made Ouyang Shuo feel refreshed. The fatigue of the past few days was swept away.
When he saw these lovely children, all his worries disappeared.
While they were busy, Zi Su came over.
"Marquis, the owner of the Eight Extremes Boxing Club, Lin Yue, is outside and wants to see you!"
"Oh?" Ouyang Shuo thought for a while and basically guessed the purpose of Lin Yue's visit. Bian Que should have finished refining the Rhinoceros Poison Dissolving Pill and let Lin Yue take it.
Lin Yue came to see the Marquis's Mansion because his hidden illness had been cured and he was here to thank him.
"Bring him here!"
Ouyang Shuo didn't want to go back to the study, so he just received him in the garden. After all, it was not an official business.
"Yes!"
After a while, Lin Yue came to the back garden under Zi Su's guidance.
Seeing the Marquis mingling with a group of children, Lin Yue was a little stunned. In his eyes, the Marquis had always been unfathomable. It was really rare to see the Marquis in real life.
"Brother Lin is here. Sit down!"
Hearing this, Lin Yue sat down anxiously, but his butt only touched half of the stool. With the Marquis's current status, there were not many people who could sit face to face with him. Lin Yue asked himself if he was one of them.
Although Bing 'er liked to play, she was very sensible.
The little girl was very satisfied with her brother's performance today. Therefore, seeing that her brother was going to entertain the guests, the little girl took the initiative to bring her friends to another pavilion to play.
"The little princess is so smart!"
Seeing this, Lin Yue couldn't help but praise.
Ouyang Shuo shook his head and said with a smile, "She's so naughty every day. I can't control her!"
Lin Yue didn't reply. Instead, he got up and knelt on one knee.
"I thank the Marquis for your kindness!"
Seeing this, Ouyang Shuo hurriedly helped him up. "Brother Lin, there's no need to do this!"
Lin Yue didn't comply. He bowed deeply before he got up and said, "Fortunately, the divine doctor Bian Que cured my hidden illness. To me, the Marquis is no different from giving me a new lease on life. "
"This is a good thing. We should celebrate." Ouyang Shuo was overjoyed and said, "Servants, serve wine!"
"Yes!"
Soon, a table of exquisite small banquets was set up in the pavilion.
Ouyang Shuo raised his wine cup. "Come, I propose a toast to Brother Lin. Congratulations on your recovery."
Seeing this, Lin Yue was a little emotional. He raised his wine cup with trembling hands. He was originally a tough man, but at this moment, his voice was a little choked. There was kindness, joy and freedom from the hidden illness. He said, "Thank you, Marquis!"
After that, he drank the wine in his cup. (To be continued.)
