Chapter 1166 – Change in the Way He Uses People

4th month, 28th day, Shanhai City.

Ouyang Shuo did not bother about Di Chen’s fear. Along with the end of the Battle of Ethiopia, a large amount of territory was waiting to be received and many war prisoners were getting ready to be organized.

To Great Xia, the hard work and bustle had only just began.

Due to the Southeast Asia situation slowly calming down, becoming a portion of Great Xia, the Cabinet suggested they make this region a part of the Australian continent administrative region to remodel and reorganize the area.

First, they would remove the Auckland region.

The Auckland region was directly listed under the Australian Province, becoming a prefecture under it. Deciding where the Auckland Region belonged posed a problem. Along with the Australia region situation calming down, that problem was totally solved.

Of course, they only removed the administrative region. Ouyang Shuo still had high hopes toward Auckland Provincial Governor Jason. He was appointed as the Australia Provincial Governor, taking a step up.

The current Australia Provincial Governor Lu Xiufu had other roles to undertake.

Secondly, reorganize Hanoi Province and Siam.

Hanoi Province was formed by Annan, Zhenla, and Nanzhang. This reorganization would merge Siam Country into Hanoi Province, forming a giant province.

The governing area would shift from Hanoi City to Vientiane, which was located around the center of the province.

After Siam country submitted, they had been working together with the Imperial Court. Today, the remodeling had been completed, and it was little inappropriate for them to keep their country title. As a result, Ouyang Shuo used this chance to merge them into Hanoi Province.

After merging them, Siam Provincial Governor Ti Lade would become the Luzon Provincial Governor. The current Luzon Provincial Governor Gu Xiuwen would become the Hanoi Provinical Governor. The current Hanoi Provincial Governor Zhu Zongxian would be appointed elsewhere.

The series of changes weakened the influence of Ti Lade in Siam while giving a good position to Gu Xiuwen.

The Hanoi Province after the merger was made up of the lands of four countries. Not only in Nanjiang, but even in the entire dynasty, it was one of the top two provinces. The position of Hanoi Provincial Governor was naturally more important and had higher weight than others.

There was one more point that was easily overlooked.

From a geographical position point of view, apart from Chuannan Province where Shanhai City was located in, Hanoi Province was the closest to Shanhai City, and it could be seen as the gate to the south of the Capital City.

Under such circumstances, the position of Hanoi Province was naturally really high.

Hence, Ouyang Shuo specially decreed the Provincial Governor to take the title of deputy minister of the Administrative Court, a secondary Grade 2 rank, which was a rank higher than normal Provincial Governors.

With that, Gu Xiuwen, who was a native civil servant, jumped to become the brightest star in the Great Xia civil servant group, becoming one of the most famous people in the dynasty.

There was some news that said Gu Xiuwen became the Hanoi Province because of the king’s insistence. The Cabinet had some other opinions about it. After all, be it in terms of ability or experience, it should not be the turn of Gu Xiuwen, who had just become the Luzon Provincial Governor.

However, Ouyang Shuo naturally had his reasons for this decision.

They were now entering the 6th year of Gaia, and in the eyes of Ouyang Shuo, historical talents were not something rare. At this stage, historical talents would move to Great Xia every month.

It was previously mentioned that historical talents were good, but they had many weaknesses. The most lethal weakness was the restriction of their historical knowledge, which did not fit with the ideology of Great Xia.

The natives did not have such a problem.

People like Gu Xiuwen started following Ouyang Shuo since the village stage and grew up along with Great Xia. Under the influence of Ouyang Shuo, their political ideals and ideologies were exactly the same as his, so there would be no differences in meshing together.

Using such a person to hold an important position in the dynasty was naturally a decision that made Ouyang Shuo feel at ease.

Hence, at such a stage, people like Gu Xiuwen, Cui Shousi, and Sun Yannong would have more of an advantage than historical talents, which was why Ouyang Shuo focused on their development.

Instantiating these people into the reality was the most suitable choice.

Putting Gu Xiuwen at an important post was just the start, and it was also the beginning of the change in how Ouyang Shuo used people.

Thirdly, establishing the Hetao Province.

The southeast region’s narrow land area of Piao was also merged into Hanoi Province. The remaining area formed up the Hetao Province.

The name of Piao was abandoned, showing Great Xia’s change in Southeast Asia. Apart from the previous Luzon and Annan, none of the countries could keep their country title.

The entire Southeast Asia region was Great Xia’s back garden.

Former Australia Provincial Governor Lu Xiufu would become the Hetao Provincial Governor. Hetao Province was connected to Peacock Dynasty, and it was the frontlines of Great Xia to India. Moving Lu Xiufu over was Ouyang Shuo thinking highly of him.

Fourthly, establishing the Heluo Province.

Heluo Province included Johor, Brunei that was occupied by Johor as well as Java’s Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Irian islands.

At the same time, Xingzhou Prefecture was also merged into Heluo Province.

The newly built Heluo Province, be it in terms of size or strategic importance, was number one or two in Nanjiang, even exceeding that of Hanoi Province.

This was because it not only controlled the Straits of Malacca, but it also had the role of locking down Java. Along with the Nanjiang Governor-General House being in Lion City, it could be seen as the governing center of Nanjiang.

The original Hanoi Provincial Governor Zhu Zongxian would become the Heluo Provincial Governor, getting the deputy minister rank of military affairs, becoming a secondary Grade 2 official. Through this, one could see that Ouyang Shuo trusted and had faith in Hu Zongxian.

The reason why he let Gu Xiuwen lead Hanoi Province and Hu Zongxian Heluo Province was because he was an all rounded official and could hold his ground better in Heluo Province.

Great Xia removed the puppet state in the region and established two provinces. Under the precedence of no new Provincial Governors, Great Xia completed their plan of Southeast Asia.

Once the Nanjiang situation stabilized, Great Xia would obtain a huge territory that could line up alongside the mainland.

Based on the previous rules, the newly built Hetao and Heluo Provinces would be under Nanjiang rule. The power of Nanjiang Governor-General Bai Hua reached a whole new peak.

Even Di Chen did not dare to say that he had more power than Bai Hua.

Along with the achievement value updating in real time, Bai Hua’s achievement value would welcome a whole new jump.

Xia Palace, Imperial Reading Room.

The newly appointed Hanoi Provincial Governor Gu Xiuwen had just left after listening to Ouyang Shuo’s debrief. Mulan Yue was currently sitting opposite to Ouyang Shuo.

After the fall of Morocco Province, Mulan Yue led her bunch of officials back to Shanhai City.

Ouyang Shuo wanted to use this chance to let Mulan Yue take up an appointment in the Imperial Court or be appointed as a Provincial Governor in some province. In the future, at a suitable time, Ouyang Shuo would make plans for her.

A hot land like Africa was not suitable for a girl like Mulan Yue.

Who would have known that she would actually develop feelings for Africa? She wanted to go back there, and she even said that she was willing to work in Jidian City as the City Magistrate.

Ouyang Shuo tried to convince her many times, but she did not listen.

Looking at the young girl, Ouyang Shuo rubbed his forehead. Who would have known that this young girl would be as stubborn as a horse?

“Do not think about being the Jidian City Magistrate.”

What could defending Jidian City do? How was it worth a duchess like Mulan Yue?

Ouyang Shuo sighed and decided that since this was her choice and the conditions allowed it, he would fulfill it.

“Then let me go to Ethiopia!” Mulan Yue said quickly.

Ouyang Shuo shook his head, “The Imperial Court has decided to form the North Africa Regional Guard House with Somalia and Ethiopia Provinces as the base, go be the guard!”

“Great!” Mulan Yue did not show any hesitation.

Compared to a Governor-General house, a regional guard house was a grade lower. It was also because North Africa had just two provinces, so building a Governor-General house would be a huge joke.

A regional guard house would not be a problem.

In the future, when Great Xia expanded in North Africa, they would upgrade it to a Governor-General House.

The governing area of the North Africa Regional Guard House was set in Ethiopia’s capital, Addis Ababa. In history, Addis Ababa was the headquarters of Africa.

As for the Ethiopia Provincial Governor, Morocco Province Provincial Governor Office Administration Director Du Sijing, he would be promoted to continue supporting Mulan Yue to rule North Africa.

Promoting him also helped to calm down and console the Morocco Province officials.

Apart from Du Sijing, all the Morocco Province officials were either arranged to work in Ethiopia Province or in the newly built regional guard house. They would help Mulan Yue control the situation.

Such good treatment was something that only Mulan Yue could enjoy.

Even when Bai Hua was appointed as the Nanjiang Governor-General, she did not enjoy such treatment. This could be considered biasness toward Mulan Yue.

Those who understood the reasons behind it naturally would not say much and would feel that it was to be expected. Out of the four of them, the one that Ouyang Shuo was the closest to and trusted the most was Mulan Yue.

Everyone had a chance of betraying him except for Mulan Yue.

The relationship between the two was similar to the relationship between a brother and a sister, standing the test of blood and fire.

At this point, the post war regional adjustments had ended. The routine military organization was next.
