The military meeting in the Hall of Martial Valor was still ongoing.
In addition to the arrangement for the generals, Jia Xu also had an official position as the Chief Clerk of the Protectorate of Southern Border.
The Chief Clerk was first established in the Qin Dynasty. At that time, the Prime Minister and Generals all had Chief Clerks, equivalent to the current Secretary General or Chief of Staff. The Chief Clerk under the Generals could also lead troops into battle.
Historically, the Chief Clerk was in charge of different affairs, but most of them were officials with the nature of aides. Jia Xu's position was to be Ouyang Shuo's military aide. At the same time, he assisted Ouyang Shuo in managing the internal affairs of the Protectorate of Southern Border.
The internal affairs here referred to the affairs of the Outer Hall, including ceremonial guards, carriages, assistants, guards, salaries, and official matters. It was completely different from the Internal Affairs Division that Song Jia was in charge of.
The secretarial office led by Bai Nanpu was also under Jia Xu's jurisdiction.
Speaking of which, this was a position that Ouyang Shuo had tailor-made for Jia Xu. As the territory's affairs increased, the various directorates had their own interests to pursue. Ouyang Shuo increasingly needed to arrange some professional aides by his side.
The existence of an aide was to assist Ouyang Shuo in coordinating the various agencies. The second was to provide Ouyang Shuo with plans, suggestions, and political advice.
Of course, Jia Xu's main role was to assist in military affairs.
…
In addition to the new personnel, the city guard corps that had been transported back through the battle map would also move out of Shanhai City according to Ouyang Shuo's previous plan. They would set up a camp outside the city.
Considering the geographical location of Lianzhou Basin, Du Ruhui suggested that the city guard corps be set up at the original site of the Western Camp. They would also expand and improve it.
Because there was a small mountain near the Western Camp, it was named the Western Mountain Camp. In the future, the Western Mountain Camp would be referred to as the Rong Guards responsible for protecting Shanhai City.
At the same time, the Lianzhou Garrison Division would be disbanded and integrated into Shanhai City's bailiffs.
Aside from the elite Mongolian warhorses brought back by the city guards for their own use, the remaining forty thousand Mongolian warhorses were all transported to the Xunzhou Military Horse Farm.
The Xunzhou Military Horse Farm raised Mongolian warhorses and had become the territory's second largest military horse farm.
With the large-scale expansion of the territory's cavalry, warhorses, especially elite warhorses, would become an important bottleneck.
Although Ouyang Shuo had long ago established the Office of the Discipline and Discipline, as well as the Military Horse Farm of Storm Valley, the Military Horse Farm of Providence, and the Military Horse Farm of Xun Province, the supply of warhorses still could not meet the demand.
For a long time in the future, the territory would need to purchase warhorses from the outside world, especially Mongolia.
The problem was that Shanhai City and Mongolia were located at the northernmost point and southernmost point respectively. It was extremely inconvenient to transport them, and the cost was huge. It was truly a headache.
This time, the purchase of seventy thousand Mongolian warhorses was completed based on the settings of the war map.
Perhaps during the next battle, Ouyang Shuo would use this method to purchase Mongolian warhorses on a large scale. He planned to entrust Lao Ai, Feng Qiuhuang, and other allies to purchase the warhorses first. Then, they would bring them to the battle map through their infantry and hand them over to Shanhai City's infantry to bring them back to Shanhai City.
Although the process was complicated, it was the most convenient method that Ouyang Shuo could think of.
After solving the problem of the City Guard Corps, the military meeting came to an end. The aftermath of the battle map gradually dissipated, and Shanhai City embarked on a new journey.
Ouyang Shuo did not forget that before the war started, Shanhai City's biggest military operation was to attack. It was only temporarily stopped because of the battle.
As for the information he obtained from the battle map, Ouyang Shuo was not interested in building a White Hou elite army. Instead, he handed the manual to the military lecture hall to perfect the information bank.
At the same time, he would use the lecture hall to summarize and refine the essence of the White Hou elite army and teach it to the entire army. This was the most efficient way to utilize the resources.
In the afternoon of the 6th of September, Ouyang Shuo's study.
The afternoon sun shone through the exquisite window paper into the study, casting spots of light on the carpet. After experiencing the coldness of the battle map, one would finally understand the warmth of the sun.
In the light, Black Snake, Shen Buhai, and Zhang Yi, the three heads of intelligence and diplomacy, were all present. Other than them, the tactician Jia Xu, who had just been appointed as the Chief Historian, was also present.
Since he was a military advisor, Ouyang Shuo naturally gave Jia Xu the authority to access the territory's intelligence. Jia Xu was also one of the few officials in the territory who could directly communicate with the three organizations.
The newly appointed Chief Historian was now involved in a confidential matter.
Since the battle map and the Dragon Seeking Acupoints were at odds, Ouyang Shuo naturally had to strengthen his defense after returning to the main map. He was no longer the person who trusted his brothers wholeheartedly in his previous life.
"Have you found out which force is in contact with the Dragon Seeking Acupoints?" Ouyang Shuo asked Black Snake.
Black Snake nodded. "I've basically found out. Although I don't know who this force is, I can be sure that they are inextricably linked to Overlord City. "
"Overlord City?" Ouyang Shuo was a little surprised.
Black Snake also understood his Lord's confusion. He nodded and said, "It is indeed Overlord City. As for whether this contact is sincere or purely to sow discord, it is still uncertain for the time being. "
"What the purpose is is no longer important." A cold light flashed in Ouyang Shuo's eyes. He briefly explained the matter of the battle map. "Even if it was previously to sow discord, after this incident, the two parties might really be in cahoots with each other."
"My Lord, what do you mean?" A trace of inexplicable excitement flashed in Black Snake's eyes.
"From today onwards, we will officially launch the isolation plan for Dragon Seeking City. The three major organizations, the Black Snake Guards, the Shanhai Guards, and the Chamberlain of Dependencies, will work together to secretly dismember Dragon Seeking City and bring all of them under the direct control of Shanhai City. "
The establishment of the alliance relied on Shanhai City's influence. The list of alliance members had to be reported to Shanhai City. Ouyang Shuo even personally met some of the lords.
Be it the Black Snake Guards or the Chamberlain of Dependencies, none of them had relaxed their infiltration. Even the Dragon Seeking Acupoints probably didn't expect that the alliance he was so proud of had already fallen into Shanhai City's control.
The lords of the Minnan Province were willing to join definitely not because of Dragon Seeking City, but because of Shanhai City's huge influence in China.
It was unknown if they had a clear understanding of the Dragon Seeking Acupoints. However, judging from the performance of the Dragon Seeking Acupoints in the battle map, they probably hadn't realized it yet.
The Dragon Seeking Acupoints thought that Dragon Seeking City's influence in the Minnan Province was the result of his personal efforts.
Ouyang Shuo had already considered the embryonic form of Plan L when he was drawing the battle map. Now that his thoughts were clearer, he continued, "The infiltration of Dragon Seeking City must be even more secretive. I suspect that the Dragon Seeking Acupoints will strengthen their guard against you. Don't let them catch you by the tail. "
"My Lord, don't worry!" Black Snake smiled. "Dragon Seeking City's intelligence organization, to put it bluntly, is a complete layman. It's fine for them to investigate on the surface, but they're far from being able to fight with us. "
"Then focus on the people. They can't be laymen. At the very least, Handan City is a tough nut to crack." Ouyang Shuo warned.
