Chapter 1512 Entering the Guards Camp

"Hmph! If you don't write it, don't blame the marshal for not remembering old feelings!" Wei Changxian said.

Fang Yun sighed softly and said: "Shangshu is just asking for forgiveness. It doesn't mean anything at first. However, since the war is not serious now, it is of little use to keep me in Nancheng. If the marshal allows me to walk outside Zhucheng, for example Go fishing in Lingdingyang, bask in the sun at the beach, and inspect my Zhang family’s property, I will be very grateful.”

"No wonder you dared to write that song "Mrs. Xi". It turned out that you had this plan. It was just for your personal guards! Since you made the conditions, I will go back and tell the marshal to prove that we did not deliberately embarrass you. . Of course, it doesn’t matter whether the marshal agrees to your leaving the city. "

Wei Changxian turned and left.

Two hours later, Wei Changxian sent a message.

"As long as you go to Shu to plead guilty, the marshal will give you a waist card, which allows you to move within ten miles of Zhucheng. Once you go outside this range, the marshal will kill you on the spot for intending to surrender to the enemy!"

"Thank you Marshal for me!"

Fang Yun put away his official seal, smiled slightly, and said to the bachelor, his mental state is very important. He has been too nervous these days. It would be of great benefit to travel around for a few days to understand the world and nature.

"I just recently realized that Chu State's national destiny has been suppressing me! The tests of the Ninth Mountain have repeatedly exceeded my expectations. If I can't relax my mind well and readjust my mentality, I may not be able to be promoted to a bachelor in a short time. How many scholars are just separated from promotion by a thin layer of paper, but they can't break through after decades. Of course, what's more important is that if I can't go out, I won't be able to see the Guards. "

Fang Yun casually asked his subordinates to write an apology letter, which only contained some empty words and clichés, leaving Lumenhou with no clue.

In the early morning of the next day, Wei Changxian sent a badge that allowed him to leave the city, and Fang Yun immediately rode his horse to the headquarters of the Zhujiang Hou Guards.

These days, Fang Yun has been under house arrest by Marquis Lumen and can only move around in a small area in the south of the city. He has not even officially met with Marquis Zhujiang's personal guards.

Every Marquis of Zhujiang personally led an additional 10,000 personal guards in addition to the 200,000 Zhujiang troops.

But ten years ago, this personal guard army was broken up and distributed to various armies.

In these years, the Marquis of Zhujiang's personal guard has completely become a new barracks. A large number of recruits have been assigned to the personal guard army. They will be assigned to other armies soon, and new recruits will soon come in.

The iron-clad Pearl City and the running water of the personal guards have become a common saying among the Pearl River Army.

When the Marquis of Zhujiang was away, the general of the Chinese Army also led the Guards. Therefore, the Guards were always under the control of Zhang Qingfeng. Although the soldiers were constantly mobilized, more than half of the officers were Zhang Qingfeng's people. They drilled normally every day, except that they had not experienced actual combat. , the overall strength of the entire Guards Army exceeds that of an ordinary recruit camp.

Fang Yun rode his horse to the gate of the guard camp. The three characters "Pingjiang Army" were written on the gate, and the Chinese general Zhang Qingfeng and the generals of the Pingjiang Army were standing outside the gate waiting.

Fang Yun smiled slightly, got off his horse, and walked forward with his whip in hand.

"I've seen the Marquis of Zhujiang!" Headed by Zhang Qingfeng, all the generals bowed and saluted.

Fang Yun glanced at the willow tree in front of the military camp and remembered Zhang Longxiang's incident recorded in the book given by the old man Shushan.

"You're welcome, this is not my first time here. It's a pity that the old willows that have been bathed in the spring breeze have grown old after more than ten years..." Fang Yun felt sad.

There were a few generals present who were old men from the Pearl River Army and looked sad, but most of them were new recruits to the Guards. Although they didn't understand Fang Yun's sadness, after listening to Fang Yun's words, they could understand his desire to revisit his old place. emotion.

"Just come back!" Zhang Qingfeng seemed to have something sparkling in his eyes, but his expression remained serious.

Fang Yun looked at Zhang Qingfeng, who had white hair and two scars on his chin clearly visible.

"Enter the camp." Fang Yun nodded lightly.

Fang Yun entered the guard camp with the generals in front and behind him. Tens of thousands of soldiers stood on both sides. The moment Fang Yun stepped into the military camp, all the soldiers knelt down on one knee and half-kneeled with their weapons in hand. Their voices were uniform and they shouted loudly at the same time. shouted loudly.

"Welcome the Marquis back to camp!"

Fang Yun stood still and looked around at the tens of thousands of soldiers on both sides of the road. In just a moment, Fang Yun remembered tens of thousands of faces, remembered the look in each person's eyes, and could even judge their likes and dislikes of him.

"Stand!" Fang Yun issued the order with his tongue full of spring thunder, and all the soldiers immediately stood upright, raised their heads and chests, looked straight ahead, and their momentum soared into the sky.

Black armor like a forest.

The morning breeze of spring blew by, and Fang Yun felt a slight surge in his heart.

This is the first time to officially take charge of the army.

Fang Yun nodded lightly and said with a smile: "Yes, the army is solemn and high-spirited! Tonight you can choose for yourself whether to stay in the guard camp and follow me. Those who are still here after tomorrow will all be descendants of Zhujiang."

After saying that, Fang Yun strode forward to the white Chinese army tent of the Guards Camp.

Fang Yun entered the tent, glanced around, walked straight to the big demon tiger leather chair, lifted up his robe, turned and sat down, put his hands on the armrests, and looked at the generals.

The generals were divided into two rows and stood in front, bowing their heads slightly.

"Sit down." Fang Yun said.

"Thank you, Lord Marquis!" The generals responded and sat on both sides.

"What I said just now is the same for you. At this time tomorrow, you can come or not." Fang Yun said.

The generals were silent.

"From today on, I am the leader of the Pingjiang Army. I have no regard for the past affairs. But from now on, I will make the decision on all matters concerning the Guards!" Fang Yun sat high on the throne and looked at everyone coldly.

Zhang Qingfeng immediately stood up and saluted, saying: "From today on, I will no longer lead the personal guards. Everything is up to the Marquis."

All the officers stood up and said in unison: "Everything is up to the Marquis."

Fang Yun nodded and said: "Time is urgent, so let's not talk nonsense. Come on, move all the account books, warehouse documents, military intelligence documents, etc. in the army within 15 years to the camp. This Marquis will personally lead the army."

The faces of many officers changed slightly. They didn't expect that the new Marquis would be so direct. However, several of them looked relaxed afterwards. The account books and documents of an army are so voluminous that even a Hanlin would need dozens of days to read them all. After reading and analyzing them, it would take at least a year to completely sort them out.

"My Lord, some volumes are sealed in the general warehouse of the Pearl River Army."

"Take my warrant and go get them."

"Yes!"

"Don't be idle, go and deliver all the account books and documents!"

"Yes!" All the generals left, leaving only Zhang Qingfeng and General Pingjiang.

Fang Yun stood up and smiled at General Pingjiang, and General Pingjiang Su Lun immediately stood up.

"I met you a few times in the past, but it was a long time ago and I don't remember it clearly. I just came here this year and talked about you with General Qingfeng. He admired you very much and said that if you were not the General Pingjiang, he would not be at ease. The Royal Guards are called the most useless army. You don't feel wronged, right?"

Fang Yun said, looking at Su Lun with a smile.

Jinshi Su Lun was about 30 years old, thin, not tall, with slightly dark skin, but very broad shoulders and very bright eyes.

Su Lun smiled calmly and said, "I naturally have complaints, but the old general has been kind to me, and I will never let him down."
