Seeing that Yang Fan dared to be so arrogant when he arrived at his territory, Duan Zhixuan frowned and said with some displeasure: "Young people don't know the heights of the world. This is not a brothel or tavern, but a Youwei camp, and it is where the elite of the imperial court is located. But This is not a place for you to mess around!”
That tone clearly mistook Yang Fan for a novice who didn't understand anything.
Yang Fan secretly complained, why are you talking so much nonsense? Isn't it just that you don't want to give away the power in your hands?
Besides, if you haven’t seen a pig running, have you never eaten pork?
From ancient times to the present, the military has worshiped the strong. As long as a few thorns are subdued with thunderous means, who will dare to stand up again?
In addition, the purpose of Datang's military reforms was to strengthen the imperial power's control over the army.
Even if Duan Zhixuan is General Youwei, he cannot regard the Youwei Army as private property.
Although I don't like Duan Zhixuan's behavior, I really can't pretend to be tough and confront this guy at this moment.
Now it shoulders the important task of escorting grain and grass, and the forward army has already set off.
If the transportation of grain and grass is not smooth due to a hard confrontation with Duan Zhixuan, causing morale instability among the troops at the front, it will really be more than worth the gain.
Thinking of this, Yang Fan's tone softened a little, and he clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, General, for your advice. I was so reckless just now, so please forgive me. It is precisely because Your Majesty has entrusted you with such a heavy responsibility that I dare not slack off at all, so I am a little anxious; "
"Furthermore, the general is just starting out in the military. Although it cannot be said to be nonsense, it cannot be compared with a veteran general like the general who has experienced hundreds of battles. In the eyes of the general, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is nonsense, but he has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. General, please make it easier."
These words were spoken in such a low tone that Duan Zhixuan couldn't find fault and could not help but raise his brows.
I originally thought that Yang Fan was young and energetic, and as long as he spoke out, he would catch and beat anyone like a cockfight, and then he could use various reasons to deliberately delay it.
Once the transportation of food and grass fails, Yang Fan will definitely not be able to eat and carry around.
Unexpectedly, Yang Fan didn't play according to the routine at all, and suddenly became extremely gentle and low-profile, which caught Duan Zhixuan off guard.
Little did he know that as a descendant, Yang Fan knew how a man could bend and stretch.
What's more important is that sometimes you can punch out with more force by taking your fist back.
Seeing Yang Fan's submissive look, Duan Zhixuan knew that he had made a mistake, so he could only shout with a stern face: "Where is Captain Zhou?"
Someone outside the barracks shouted: "The general is here!"
As soon as the people arrived, there was a sound of armor scraping, and they soon arrived at the barracks.
Glancing at it with his peripheral vision, Yang Fan was surprised.
They were really enemies, and the person who came was an old acquaintance, it was Zhou Daowu who was beaten up by him at the Lishan banquet.
At this time, this guy was looking at him with a pair of cold eyes, and the resentment in his heart could be seen from the cold light flashing in his eyes from time to time.
Duan Zhixuan didn't care about that and directly ordered: "Your Majesty has decreed that the Left Camp of the Right Guards will obey the command of Marquis Zhongyi from today on. Now you will take him to the Zuoying. Marquis Zhongyi will arrange everything on his own."
"I will obey the general's order." Zhou Daowu knelt down on one knee and loudly agreed.
Duan Zhixuan raised his eyelids, looked at Yang Fan and said: "I have already given the order, and Marquis Zhongyi will do as he pleases. However, the soldiers in Zuoying are all strong and brave people. Whether they can command them in a consistent manner depends on Marquis Zhongyi's ability. Please take care of yourself, Marquis Zhongyi."
In fact, Duan Zhixuan also saw Yang Fan's jokes.
The meaning is obvious. I have given you soldiers in accordance with the imperial decree. Whether you can command them depends on your ability.
Of course, Yang Fan would not pester him just to show off his anger. After thanking him with fists in his hands, he followed Zhou Daowu out of the barracks.
Looking at Zhou Daowu who was walking in front without saying a word, Yang Fan coughed and said politely: "Captain Zhou, we don't know each other until we fight. Now that we are facing a powerful enemy, please put aside your personal opinions and put the overall situation first, so that you can live up to His Majesty." Hope."
Zhou Daowu was stunned for a moment, and then said with tears of gratitude: "I have won the favor of His Majesty to be appointed as the captain of Zuoying. Of course I know the priorities of things. Public is public and private is private. I understand clearly. Please rest assured, Marquis Zhongyi, and go on the expedition. During this period, I will definitely comply with the order."
Now that Yang Fan is his superior, even if he is dissatisfied, Zhou Daowu dare not speak out now.
What's more, escorting grain and grass may seem simple, but the responsibility is huge.
If an accident occurs because of trouble-making, even one more head of Zhou Daowu's head won't be enough to kill him.
However, seeing how Zhou Daowu was grateful to Li Er, Yang Fan couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He did a good job in brainwashing.
It’s no wonder that the middle and senior officers of the Forbidden Army guarding the capital, such as the Left and Right Guards, are all noble queens, obviously to ensure the absolute loyalty of the army.
Even a distinguished person like Duan Zhixuan, who was close to the family, would never have the idea of rebelling against Li.
Yang Fan chuckled: "Captain Zhou has a broad mind, I am really embarrassed, I admire you!"
Zhou Daowu did not reply, but took the lead with his head held high.
Haha... quite a character.
Yang Fan didn't pay attention and continued to ask: "How many soldiers are there in the right guard and left camp now?"
"A total of 3,200 sergeants!" Zhou Daowu glanced sideways at Yang Fan and spat out a few words, as if he cherished them like gold.
Yang Fan nodded and complimented: "Captain Zhou is in charge of a large camp at a young age. He is really young and promising, with a bright future."
I thought that talking nice and being close to each other would ease the relationship between the two, but I didn't know that it would have the opposite effect.
Zhou Daowu gave Yang Fan a cold look and stopped talking.
Yang Fan looked confused, what is going on?
Don’t these second-generation people from Chang’an City like to be praised by others?
Is this guy really a special case?
Just as he was about to speak again, he saw Zhou Daowu say with a cold face and said unhappily: "Marquis Zhongyi is young but is already a certain official. Aren't you bragging about yourself?"
After saying that, he swung his sword horizontally and strode forward with an expressionless face.
Damn it! Yang Fan really wanted to yell.
This guy is so shameless, he really puts his hot face on his cold butt.
If he hadn't rushed to the school grounds to recruit troops, he would have really wanted to beat up this pretense again. He simply deserved a beating.
You kid wants to act cool, right?
OK! We'll see.
We will spend a lot of time together in the future, but if you dare to shame me now, I have to let you know why I can be your boss.
Thinking of this, Yang Fan glanced at Zhou Daowu who was walking away, and followed him angrily.
After arriving at the left camp of the Right Guards, Yang Fan came to the stage to order troops. As the war drums sounded, in a short time, the campus of Nuo University was already crowded.
Although the soldiers were in a hurry, they walked quickly. The soldiers did not panic at all, let alone make noisy discussions. As they moved, there was only the sound of leather clothes scraping together.
After all the soldiers arrived at the school grounds, they automatically fell into the queue.
Although not as neatly organized as the soldiers of later generations, it can still be seen that they are orderly and spaced horizontally and vertically.
Yang Fan was a little surprised. He thought that the ancient sergeants were in a mess when they gathered together. The real elites should not be underestimated.
Judging from the bursts of murderous aura emanating from these people, it is obvious that this is a force capable of hundreds of battles.
Although the more than 500 soldiers he trained in Junyangfang may stand more neatly in formation than these people, they lack the courage to move forward.
This kind of army...
No wonder it can conquer the vast territory of Nuo, no wonder it can make all the barbarians surrender, no wonder it can make the Tang Dynasty stand on top of the world...
Worthy of the pride of the nation, Yang Fan gradually understood!
