The first thousand two hundred and ninety-six chapters embattled Spain

Receiving the Egyptian dynasty is more complicated than expected.

Because the Egyptian dynasty was not defeated by Daxia by force, Daxia had not even put any pressure on the Egyptian dynasty head-on, thus leaving hidden dangers.

Perhaps in the eyes of Egyptian people, such surrender is better than saying "betrayal".

Fortunately, Daxia signed a legal agreement with the Egyptian dynasty, and there was no fraud.

On April 18th, at 10 a.m., Kou Zhun, the second assistant to the Daxia Cabinet, joined forces with the African guardian Mulanyue, to visit Cairo City and officially take over Egypt.

At this time, Cairo's defense had been taken over by the Greedy Lang Army.

The African War Zone Command and the Greedy Lang Army General Command were moved to Cairo. There is no doubt that Cairo will become the central city of Daxia in Africa.

As Mulanyue and her party arrived in Cairo, the Egyptian dynasty officially disintegrated, and the royal family members temporarily lived in the palace, but they did not come forward, and would not even take a step forward from the palace.

According to the arrangement of the azure badge, they will live in the Germanic dynasty in the future.

A group of civil and military ministers were also dismissed.

In the rule of Egypt, Daxia's strategy was to boil frogs in warm water. Therefore, whether it was Egyptian court officials or local officials, the African Protectorate would be allowed to remain in office.

The maximum appointment of local officials was a response strategy adopted by Daxia.

In this way, the Egyptian people's resistance to Daxia will be much smaller, which will be conducive to the smooth transition of power. In two or three years, this resistance will basically be calmed.

Even then, appointing local officials is the mainstream.

The African continent is no longer as good as the southern Xinjiang, and its recognition of Chinese civilization is relatively low. It is too difficult to force assimilate, so I can only slowly try to win over local people as much as possible.

To describe it in an inappropriate sentence, it is "using barbarians to control barbarians."

…………

Capital.

Just when Mulanyue and her entourage were taking over the Egyptian dynasty, the court was also studying related personnel layouts.

Except for the Sudan area being incorporated into the Sudan province, the newly established Egyptian provinces and Libya provinces need to send a governor to his post.

Especially the Egyptian Governor was the top priority.

The cabinet suggested that it is best to select one of the five current governors of the African Protectorate to serve as the governor of Egypt, because these five governors are familiar with the situation in Africa and are easier to enter the role.

Ouyang Shuo recognized the cabinet's suggestions.

Among the five governors, Sultan Governor Pei Yun and Kenyan Governor Cao Shen were sent to Africa and naturally could not be transferred.

The rest are Ethiopian Governor Du Sijing, Tanzania Governor Sun Wuji and Mosan Governor Yang Xiuqing.

Given that Du Sijing has always been under Mulanyue's command, in order to avoid suspicion, Ouyang Shuo also excluded Du Sijing from this transfer.

Furthermore, the strategic position of the Ethiopian province is also very important, and it is inseparable from Du Sijing.

Changsun Wuji was transferred last year and was far from familiar with the situation in Africa and was excluded. In this way, Yang Xiuqing became the only candidate.

Ouyang Shuo did not hesitate and made a decision directly to transfer Yang Xiuqing to Egyptian Governor.

This former core figure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is also considered an old minister of the Empire. He works diligently, and is the best choice for both talent and ability.

Yang Xiuqing's experience in Taiping Heavenly Kingdom also created his strengths of being good at appeasement, which was also of great help to his leadership of Egyptian provinces.

In this way, Ouyang Shuo has no reason not to reuse Yang Xiuqing.

The one who took over the position of Governor General of Mosan was Caiyun, the former governor of Xingyi County, North Sichuan Province.

Against the backdrop of the abolition of the government office and the increase of county-level organization, the rank of county magistrates has actually declined, and they were promoted from county magistrates to governors, which is a real fish jumping over the dragon gate.

Caiyun Nan is the former lord of Caiyun City, and is also the core figure of the former [Southern Hunan City State]. Before joining Daxia, he had a conflict and confrontation with Daxia.

Logically speaking, it is difficult for such a person to be promoted. It is already rare to be able to safely maintain the position of county magistrate, let alone become promoted to provincial governor.

Ouyang Shuo made such a decision, firstly, Caiyun South has managed Xingyi County well in recent years. As a lord, Caiyun South can reach that point, at least prove that he has the ability.

Second, it can be considered as buying bones for half a thousand yuan.

If Ouyang Shuo wants a lord-level official to convey a message, Daxia, regardless of their "crime", can be reused as long as he takes care of his efforts after he surrenders.

The court would not look at them with tinted glasses.

The governor of Libya Province was promoted from Hao Jiancheng, the governor of Zhaoqing County, Lingnan Province.

Like Gu Xiuwen, Zhou Haichen and others, Hao Jiancheng was also a favorite student of Ouyang Shuo and the best among the indigenous civil servants. Before serving as the magistrate of Zhaoqing County, he served as the director of the construction department in the territory.

There is a reason to transfer Hao Jiancheng to Libya.

More than 95% of the entire Libya area is desert and semi-desert. There are only narrow plains along the northern coast that can be used for farming and living, and the land utilization rate is extremely low.

However, Libya is adjacent to the Mediterranean, and this point alone is enough to attract the attention of the Great Xia. Not to mention, like Egypt, Libya is also rich in oil, and its strategic position has become prominent.

In addition, Tunisia, which was included in the Libyan province, is located at the northernmost end of Africa, in the middle of the Mediterranean route, and across the Tunisian Strait, facing Italy. It is a must-pass route for Middle Eastern oil to transport to Western Europe and the United States, and its geographical location is very important.

The Atlantic Fleet will build a naval base in Etna, Tunisia.

It is not without reason to learn that Egypt has surrendered to the Great Xia Dynasty. When the Atlantic Fleet returns to the Mediterranean, the Caesar Fleet, which is once glorious, will be in big trouble.

Controlling the Tunisian Strait is equivalent to controlling the Mediterranean navigation route.

In addition, the Strait of Gibraltar and the Suez Canal are all under the control of Daxia. It can basically be said that Daxia has already controlled the life core of Mediterranean trade.

Such a Libyan province is of course worthy of Ouyang Shuo's dispatch of a confidant minister to guard it.

At the beginning, Mr. Chen did not dare to make a decision and ceded the Egyptian dynasty to Daxia, which was also concerned about this.

Sadly, although the Egyptian dynasty controlled the Suez Canal and Tunisia, there was no navy, so they could only sigh and give in to their maritime rights and interests.

Finally, it was cheaper in Daxia.

…………

In mid-April, just when Daxia was taking over the Egyptian dynasty in an orderly manner, the 500,000 troops of the Egyptian dynasty were quietly gathering and stationed outside Cairo.

On April 22, a half million Egyptian army took advantage of the night to enter Cairo City, disappeared after the teleportation array, and appeared at the base point city thousands of miles away.

According to the rules of the game, the Egyptian dynasty surrendered to Daxia, and the 500,000 Egyptian army naturally belonged to the Daxia army, so the teleportation array within Daxia could be used.

This realizes the teleportation from Cairo to Base Point City.

The next morning, 500,000 Egyptian troops landed on the Spanish dynasty under the escort of the Second Atlantic Fleet stationed in the Port of Gibraltar.

This kicked off the prelude to the Egyptian army's conquest of the Spanish dynasty.

At the same time, the North African Army of Daxia, which had just entered the Libyan province, took advantage of the situation to advance westward and attacked the Algerian region, which had been included in the Spanish dynasty.

The banner raised by the North African army is "revenge".

Ouyang Shuo did not forget that the silver hand and the blue badge were the shells of Algeria that forced Daxia to abandon the Moroccan province.

Two years later, Daxia came to avenge this.

On April 24, as agreed, after purchasing a firearm, the Indian Empire launched a counterattack on the Argentina area controlled by the Spanish dynasty.
