Chapter 171: Xuzhong Empire's Personnel

Huang Xinyi then took back the map, pulled out a stack of ledgers, and handed one to each person in the room.

"Now, I will introduce you to some of the key figures who have taken up important positions, helping the Empire reach such great heights."

She had already introduced the empire's progress. Today, her focus would be on the personnel she had appointed across the empire to ensure smooth operations.

With five major cities under her control, along with a network of smaller towns, villages, and newly built cities, spread across vast tracts of land, strong and capable leadership was crucial.

As everyone opened their ledgers, she began to speak.

"As you know, over the past year, we've secured control of five major cities. These cities form the backbone of the Xuzhong Empire.

I have appointed governors, generals, and other key personnel to ensure that our territories not only remain secure but also thrive."

She paused briefly, her voice steady and authoritative. "Let me begin by discussing the five major cities and the leaders I have placed in each."

Jingzhong City, the capital of the empire, was the first city she discussed.

"Jingzhong City is our political and military center. As the heart of the empire, it requires strong leadership. I have appointed Xu Han as the governor of the city."

Since it was the first city they controlled, she chose Xu Han, a highly qualified person, known for his calm demeanor and decisive actions.

"He has shown exceptional skill in managing the complex political landscape of the capital city, and his diplomatic expertise has been vital in maintaining our alliances."

Everyone nodded. Huang Xinyi had already mentioned stepping down as city lord because the role consumed a lot of her time—time she could use for more important tasks.

As the empire's territory expanded, the amount of paperwork she had to handle increased significantly, so she appointed a spokesperson who would act as the city's public face.

Xu Han managed most of the city's day-to-day problems, leaving only the most critical decisions for her.

As a Xu family member, his loyalty was unquestionable, making him the perfect choice for the role.

"For the military defense of the capital," Huang Xinyi continued, "I have appointed General Li Sheng as the commander of the city's forces.

Huang Xinyi then turned her attention to Nanhe City, a crucial southern stronghold.

"Nanhe City is our gateway to the southern territories and a key trading port.

Governor Liu Qiang is in charge of this city. His experience in managing border cities makes him the ideal candidate for overseeing Nanhe.

He has already implemented several policies that have improved trade and increased security along the southern border."

Nanhe was built on an island in the middle of a massive lake where several major rivers converge.

These rivers flowed across the continent, making Nanhe a vital trade and transportation hub connecting river routes from different regions.

General Chen Rong was appointed to defend Nanhe.

"General Chen is known for his fearless leadership. He has led numerous successful campaigns against southern raiders and has fortified the city's defenses.

His aggressive tactics have made Nanhe City a formidable stronghold, deterring any would-be challengers."

Finally, she addressed Beiyang City, the northern frontier's critical outpost.

"Beiyang City is our first line of defense against northern threats.

Governor Zhang Lei oversees this city, and his ability to manage the harsh environment and maintain the city's infrastructure has been invaluable.

Zhang Lei has ensured that the city remains well-supplied and its defenses are in top condition, even during the harsh winter months."

Beiyang's military commander, General Zhao Lin, was renowned for his defensive strategies.

"General Zhao takes a different approach than some of our other generals. He excels in defensive warfare and has built an impressive network of fortifications along the northern border.

His focus on maintaining strong defenses has made Beiyang a near-impenetrable fortress."

Having covered the governors and generals of the five major cities, Huang Xinyi then turned her attention to the empire's overall military structure.
