Chapter 1353 – Great Xia Spaceship
After many twists and turns, Lin Jing still jumped out of the Imperial Palace Guards system to take charge of the Martial Management Division.
Ought Shuo had his reason behind such an arrangement.
First, along with Xie Siyun taking charge of the Imperial Palace Guards, Lin Jing continuing to stay there might lead to suspicion. It did not match with the rules the Imperial Court had set for the Imperial Palace Guards.
Moving Lin Jing away was a result of circumstances.
Secondly, the expanded Martial Management Division had a huge change in status. It was the Empire’s super organization responsible for maintaining the safety of the underworld.
Li Jing managing the Martial Management Division was also good for Bing’er’s rule.
As for the other three generals promoted to marshal, it followed normal promotions, opening up the Legion General promotion to marshal channel. These promotions allowed the other generals to see hope.
Apart from the six chosen generals, only five thousand people would come, including one thousand Divine Martial Guards led by Xu Chu and two independent regiments.
The one thousand Divine Martial Guards were all cyborgs, and they were the central pillar of strength for protecting Ouyang Shuo. They also formed the core military strength of this exploration team.
This alone used up 50 million of Ouyang Shuo’s points.
The two independent regiments were led by Baiqi and Han Xin. The scale was not too big, but they could be considered the backbone of the team’s future military.
Only 100 officers in the regiment were cyborgs. Two-third of the soldiers were combat robots and one-third were combat occupation players.
Such a ratio ensured the army’s absolute loyalty.
Apart from the civil servants and generals, Ouyang Shuo made plans for the intel system. Out of the two intel heads, Black Snake Guards Commander Black Snake would follow Ouyang Shuo and proceed to Planet Hope.
With Ouyang Shuo there, Black Snake would not dare to do anything funny.
Without Ouyang Shuo’s supervision, the Black Snake Guards had spent an extended period of time overseas. Ouyang Shuo was worried about whether Bing’er could control this dangerous intel organization or not.
Taking away Black Snake was necessary.
Of course, exploring Planet Hope would require an intel expert like Black Snake to collect the relevant information. They needed to put up complete defenses and preventive measures to prevent the events of Hope City from repeating.
Shanhai Guards commander Shen Buhai would shift over to the position of Black Snake Guards commander.
This arrangement was a type of mutual restriction.
The Shanhai Guard’s new commander would be Shadow Guard Cui Tianqi, making up for the last missing piece.
Cui Tianqi had followed Bing’er since childhood and was extremely loyal to both Ouyang Shuo and her. Him taking charge would be equivalent to a protective talisman for Bing’er.
With that, the Cabinet, the Imperial Palace Guards, the Martial Management Division, and the Shanhai Guards had people Bing’er could trust and rely on, basically solidifying the roots of her rule.
Ouyang Shuo still was not pleased and wished to arrange things a little better.
Such effort even made his wife Song Jia a little jealous.
Amongst the civil servants, Imperial Capital Governor Tian Wenjing was the Qiongzhou Governor and was one of the old officials of her land. He had a relationship with her and could be considered an ally.
Not only that, but Ouyang Shuo also took the chance to promote a batch of Qiongzhou officials to support her.
At this point, this massive adjustment came to an end, and the court assembly concluded. Under the eyes of the core officials, Bing’er started her rule.
A new page in Great Xia’s history was underway.
…
5th month, 5th day, afternoon, Great Xia emperor palace.
Gaia appeared in Ouyang Shuo’s Imperial Reading Room again and directly asked, “Is the name list ready?” She was referring to the list of people from Great Xia going to Planet Hope.
Apart from the officials, generals, basic officials, and troops, a special group was chosen from the Empire’s people. They were the artisans and technical talents that had volunteered in advance.
This group numbered at around 20 thousand people.
A large half were work occupation players and were mainly Chinese.
This left Ouyang Shuo truly touched.
In front of uncertain times, in the face of mankind’s survival, Ouyang Shuo was not the only one that could step up. The combat occupation players from the Imperial Palace Guards and the rest of them were pumped.
This was an arduous journey; willing sacrifice was the basis for mankind’s survival.
“It’s done!”
Ouyang Shuo emailed the list to Gaia. Looking out at the entire game world, Ouyang Shuo was probably the only one with Gaia’s email.
“In these two days, I’ll shift them to the two spaceships. When you go offline, familiarize yourself with the warship. I also have a huge gift for you.” Gaia said.
“Definitely.”
Ouyang Shuo was looking forward to the gift Gaia mentioned.
…
Two days passed by quickly.
During this period, in the face of Great Xia’s pressure, the Arab Empire did not reply. It seemed like they had not made a decision.
Ouyang Shuo was not willing to drag things on any longer, so he ordered the 1st and 2nd legions of the South Asia legion corps to cross the border and officially declare war.
It seemed like spilling blood was the only way for things to proceed.
If time were not of the essence, Ouyang Shuo would not be willing to take such action. However, since the matter could not be delayed, he had to finish things quickly and unify Asia soon.
Meanwhile, Gaia was moving things at god speed. The exploration team was shifted over to the two spaceships. They could breakaway at any time and be on their way.
On the ships, apart from the workers, Gaia prepared a large quantity of resources like engineer robots, scouting satellites, drones, various nutrition injections, and various seeds.
Even some animals from Earth were sent over to the spaceship.
All in all, the resources they needed for the early periods were provided by Gaia. This was much more than what the Lords were given when they started from the village stage.
After all, reality was much more cruel than the game world.
Before his game cabin was shifted over to the spaceship, Ouyang Shuo and his family went offline for a small gathering. Song Jia, Bing’er, Xie Siyun, Lin Jing, Yu’er, and Luo’er were all present.
This could be viewed as his send off.
That night, his wife, Song Jia, forced herself to smile. However, everyone could feel her unwillingness and sadness. Bing’er cried out, acting nothing like a ruling queen.
Yu’er and Luo’er were still young. Seeing their aunt cry, they cried out too.
Even Lin Jing had tears at the corner of her eyes.
The scene that night would be etched into Ouyang Shuo’s mind; it was something that he would never forget for his entire life.
Who knows when he would be able to reunite with them after this. If things went wrong, this goodbye might be forever.
Life had no certainties, and it was the same case for fate and destiny.
5th month, 8th day, when Ouyang Shuo exited the game cabin, he was already on the spaceship named the Great Xia spaceship. Gaia had thoughtfully arranged a single room for him.
Ouyang Shuo was excited to understand this spaceship.
