    Chapter 1007 – Future Empress


    Apart from mainmander Baiqi, Ouyang Shuo appointed Shi Wanshui and Zhou Yu as the deputymanders to help Baiqi.


    Guards Legion Corps marshal Huo Qubing would be the vanguard general.


    After the entire structure was set up, they needed to discuss the details.


    The five legions of the Dragon Legion Corps, four from the Guards Legion Corps, and two from the Bear Legion Corps could be sent. The City Protection Legion Corps would leave the 4th legion to defend Beihai City while the other four could be sent too.


    It was a total of 15 legions, 1.05 million troops.


    The remaining Tiger, Leopard, and Eagle Legion Corps needed to take charge of the long north border of the dynasty or get ready for internal wars. As such, they could not be moved.


    They would only be thrown in if the Annan battle situation turned bad.


    On the navy side, the Emperor Squadron and the Yashan Squadron were all sent. The Pacific Squadron would only send one division, as it had other important responsibilities.


    Apart from upying Hawaii, the Pacific Squadron would still need to threaten the north and south enemies.


    North was naturally the Yanhuang Alliance.


    Ouyang Shuo was not sure if Di Chen would make use of this battle to attack Great Xia.


    Those aristocratic family children only cared about interests and did not mind taking heartless action.


    Hence, during the war period, the Pacific Squadron needed to ensure that the surrounding ocean regions were under their absolute control and that the Yanhuang Alliance would not have a chance to find trouble.


    On the south side was Luzon. After the Luzon Squadron was badly beaten by the Yashan Squadronst time, they did not dare to make any sounds.


    Although that was the case, Ouyang Shuo still did not dare to let his guard down.


    A dog that does not bark was one that would bite.


    Luzon was the core of the ASEAN Lords that wanted war. Without the threat on the ocean, who knows if they would be tempted to join in.


    The three squadrons, apart from ocean warfare, disembarking, and fighting, also had the mission of ferrying troops and carrying resources.


    To ensure that the million troops and resources smoothly arrive on the frontlines, Great Xia had gathered 800te merchant ships to ensure a smooth supply line.


    Apart from that, Yanhuo Yaonie’s Indian Ocean Squadron would be in charge of threatening the other ASEAN countries, especially Zhe and Java.


    In conclusion, for this battle, Great Xia would basically use all the troops they possibly could.


    Next was the specific strategy. On this matter, Baiqi, Jia Xu, and the strategists and generals had more speaking rights. Ouyang Shuo only listened on and did not interfere.


    The entire military meetingsted for five days.


    When the dust settled, the Great Xia war machine started to work. With the Grand Council’s help, the participating forces started to gather at their designated spots.


    The ocean amounts of war resources were also being gathered urgently.


    ************


    In the blink of an eye, it was already the 3rd month.


    The winter season slowly dissipated, especially in Shanhai City, which was on the southwest and was affected by the subtropical ocean climate. In the city, one could already smell spring.


    Ice melting, the earth awakening, the dead silent wilderness started to blossom.


    After the Lantern Festival was the start of another school term.


    Since she became the princess, Bing’er’s studies in ancient Chinese civilization became moremon. As time went on, her afternoon sses started to sh with the virtual lessons she was taking in the morning.


    The best way was to not go to the virtual lessons and let professional teacher teach modern lessons in the pce. With the position of Great Xia, finding some teachers was a simple matter.


    However, Ouyang Shuo did not do that.


    The reason was simple. In the virtual ssroom, she had friends to learn and y together with. If she moved to the pce, she would be truly alone.


    Only after he epted his family did the mater turn for the better. Estimates had 56 people still in school. From middle school to university, there were people at every level.


    Ouyang Shuo decided to choose a pce at the outer parts of the Xia Pce to be the imperial college for rtives of the emperor to study in.


    All the fees would be paid for by the royal family.


    The royal college would mix modern lessons with ancient Chinese civilization lessons. Apart from that, Ouyang Shuo would also prepare a suitable true internal cultivation method for each student to build the foundations of their cultivation.


    The Great Xia royal family did not only need civil servants, but it also needed generals.


    As the only direct line princess, Bing’er would go to school in the royal college.


    During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the royal college was the highest education system. As Great Xia already had the Xinan University, the royal college would not be under the Imperial Court Structure.


    Ouyang Shuo’s royal college would be different from those during ancient times.


    When the news came out, the royal family rtives did not have a reason to disagree. They wished for a chance to get closer to the royal family.


    Taking a step back, even if they did not intend to use this chance to build on rtionships, the teachers in the college would be top grade. For their children to study there meant that they would be a step better than normal children.


    Not to mention the secret manuals that others dreamed of.


    Since the king had made such a promise, the secret manuals would be Gold Rank at worst or even King Rank.


    As the matter concerned the princess, the Science, Education, Culture, and Health Department was really efficient, establishing the college in less than a month. A group of teachers were also hired.


    3rd month, 1st day, the royal college officially started running.


    This was a big matter for the royal family, so Ouyang Shuo put aside some matters to attend the unveiling and opening ceremony.


    Family members with children attending were also invited to the ceremony.


    Ouyang Shuo was the king and someone they all looked up to. As such, all the words he said aimed to encourage the children to respect their teachers and study hard.


    Although the words were the same old stuff, the logic made sense.


    Bing’er was wearing a blue robe that was standardized for the school. She looked really cute and schrly. She sat at the front, listening attentively to her brother.


    Maybe, at this moment, she realized the role of the royal family. As the princess, her position was extraordinary, and she needed to be a model for her cousins.


    The royal college was not a pce for the royal family children to y around. On the contrary, the rules here were much stricter than the virtual schools, and the work was also much more intense.


    Even if they had a good starting point, if they did not work hard, they would not seed.


    Ancient dynasties all paid attention to the studies of the prince. With the Qing Dynasty as an example, the prince would start school at 4 AM, and it would end at 4 PM.


    Every morning and noon, there would be two meals. Breakfast at 7 AM, lunch at 12. If any of them did not finish their work, it would dy the meal time for everyone else.


    Only after their teacher felt like they hadpleted the task could they proceed to eat.


    Their holidays were even more pitiful. Once they entered at six, they would only have holidays on New Year’s, Mid-Autumn Festival, their own birthday, and two days for their father’s birthday.


    Modern day students had holidays on festive seasons as well as summer breaks.


    Under such a strict system, many geniuses were often born.


    Kangxi Emperor really loved to learn when he was young. He had once learned astronomy, math, geography, and Latin from Nan Huauren and other schrs.


    Maybe they inherited his high intellect, as his children were all pirs of the dynasty. Unfortunately, only one of them could be emperor.


    But even so, they were all really talented.


    Not mentioning the royal family, but even in modern day society, children who came from rich families had better education thanmoners. However, their studies were even tougher.


    People like Di Chen, although they were getting destroyed by amoner like Ouyang Shuo, they were each skilled.


    If not, how could they manage such a huge territory at such a young age?


    Hence, for the Ouyang family to continue on, even extending to be a huge aristocratic family, he would need to start from the next generation, from education.


    This point was greatly supported by the old people in the family.


    In the words of Ouyang Bo, “Although our generation has suddenly blossomed, it’s useless. To extend the family legacy, we have to depend on the next generation.”


    When the other uncles heard that, theyughed.


    Although the words were a little extreme, they were correct.


    Of course, whether the Ouyang Family could take root on Hope and proliferate or not, apart from Ouyang Shuo, it mainly depended on Bing’er and the two unborn children.


    They were his direct descendants and the heirs to the throne.


    Although he did not tell anyone, in his eyes, there was no difference between men and women. He even though about letting Bing’er be the empress if she was good enough.


    ...


    After Ouyang Shuo finished talking, Bing’er, as the student representative, went to give her speech.


    Looking at the confident and elegant girl in blue, Ouyang Shuo’s eyes were filled with love.


    Love and happiness.


    All the girls and boys listening on were engrossed in her speech.


    This moment was worth remembering.
