Chapter 299 Want to see jokes
Just when Yang Fan was deeply shocked by this mighty army, Duan Zhixuan's barracks were a different scene.
Looking at the imperial edict on the plan before the position of the general manager, Duan Zhixuan was in a state of uncertainty, and his face suddenly turned red and white.
Among the sixteen guards in the Tang Dynasty, the left and right guards had the smallest number, and each guard had only 12,000 full staff.
The soldiers from the left and right guards were strictly selected, and everyone could be called a warrior who fought against ten.
Therefore, although the left and right guards have the smallest number of people, they are the most elite troops among the sixteen guards.
Now Yang Fan directly transferred a camp from the Right Guard, which was like cutting Duan Zhixuan's heart.
These soldiers were all his hard work and his confidence. What’s more important is that this Zuoying is extraordinary.
What exactly does His Majesty Li Er want to do?
Did you really start to be on guard against yourself because you got too close to the aristocratic family?
Otherwise, how could such elite troops be sent to escort food and grass? It is obviously trying to divide the rights in his hands.
You should know that from past experience, the army that escorted food and grass were composed of farmers who were temporarily dispatched.
It’s all because of the stick Yang Fan. If it weren’t for that kid, he wouldn’t have been so passive.
It used to be smooth sailing, but since I met that guy, everything has been going well!
Duan Zhixuan became more and more angry as he thought about it. He stood up with a loud voice, kicked Hu beside him away, and kept cursing.
Thinking of His Majesty Li Er's actions, Duan Zhixuan felt a little restless and panicked.
If Li Er really wants to attack himself, according to the emperor's temper, if he doesn't move, he will be eliminated. Once he moves, he will be able to eliminate the roots. Those of Prince Li Jiancheng and others are the lessons of the past.
The more Duan Zhixuan thought about it, the more scared he became. He didn't know what to do. Could it be that he really wanted to hand over military power and leisurely levies at home like Li Jing?
Although this is safe, Duan Zhixuan is unwilling to give up!
I thought I was just a rude person at the beginning and finally got to where I am now. How could I give up easily?
At this moment, footsteps came from outside the barracks. Because his mind was not in his mind, Duan Zhixuan was like a frightened bird, but he had to sit back to his commander's position first.
"I have met my father!" The person who came was Duan Zan.
Although he was a little surprised, Duan Zhixuan breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand to signal Duan Zan to sit down, and asked, "Does Zan'er have any urgent matters to come to be a father?"
Duan Zan stood up and replied, "My father, I heard that Your Majesty has transferred a large camp from the Right Guard to escort the food and grass for Yang Fan. Is there anything wrong?"
"It's true!" Duan Zhixuan's face was a little gray and nodded helplessly.
Duan Zan complained angrily: "How can Your Majesty do this? The Right Guard Army is the hard work of his father. How can we transfer it to others at will? Besides, it is just escorting food and grass. Is it necessary to mobilize the elite Right Guard?"
Upon hearing this, Duan Zhixuan was so scared that his face was bloodless and quickly scolded: "Zan'er, don't talk nonsense. You and I are all ministers. How can you discuss Your Majesty's decision in vain?"
As he said that, he ran to the barracks in panic and looked around. Seeing that there was no one around, Duan Zhixuan breathed a sigh of relief.
If His Majesty Li Er heard the words just now, even if he did not die, he would have to peel off his skin, and it would be even more impossible to go further.
Duan Zan also knew that the words just now were a bit reckless, but when he saw Duan Zhixuan so nervous, he said distractedly: "Don't be so nervous, my father, you have already asked the guards to stay away from the coach's tent when the child came in..."
Duan Zhixuan did not relax, but instead warned more cautiously: "Zan'er, some words can only be understood but not expressed. Be careful of the ears of the wall. As the saying goes, disaster comes from the mouth, and it is better to be careful in the future. Your Majesty is not a king who is easy to deal with."
At this time, Duan Zan finally restrained himself a little. As the imperial guard who guarded the capital, he had the opportunity to contact Li Er.
Although His Majesty Li Er mostly shows kindness, it is undeniable that His Majesty Li Er is even a cruel emperor.
If the words just now were heard by His Majesty Li Er, his life would be over.
He did not dare to point the finger at Li Er, and Yang Fan naturally became a scapegoat. Duan Zan said unanimously: "My father, can we just let that boy Yang Fan take the man away from the Right Guard?"
Duan Zhixuan walked back to the position of commander and said confidently: "It's simply whimsical that a kid who is not a military man wants to command the elite of the Right Guard."
"Is there any change?" Duan Zan asked anxiously.
Duan Zhixuan stroked the short beard under his jaw and smiled mysteriously: "Does Zan'er know which camp sent to that kid for his father?"
"Is it the left camp of the Right Guard?" Duan Zan suddenly realized after thinking for a while, and blurted out.
Duan Zhixuan said in a divine way: "That's right!"
"That stick is bitter!" Duan Zan was immediately ecstatic and laughed to the sky.
Duan Zhixuan nodded in agreement.
Speaking of the left camp of the Right Guard, Duan Zhixuan loves and hates it.
Because this Zuoying is like a useless person.
Although Duan Zhixuan, as the general of the Right Guard, manages the affairs of the Right Guard, the left camp of the Right Guard is an exception.
The reason for this is that we have to start with the composition of Zuoying.
Because all the soldiers in Zuoying were composed of Xuanjia Army.
Speaking of Xuanjia Army, everyone knows it.
At the beginning of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, His Majesty Li Er personally led a large army to eliminate separatist forces in various places, and the Xuanjia Army played a major role.
The Xuanjia Army is composed of the most powerful cavalry selected from the cavalry unit, all black clothes and iron black armor.
Moreover, the Xuanjia Army's record is even more impressive. Li Shimin once defeated Dou Jiande and Wang Shicong's tens of thousands of elite soldiers with only 3,500 Xuanjia elite soldiers, which shows the success of the Xuanjia Army.
As time passed, by the beginning of the tenth year of Zhenguan, the Xuanjia Army had expanded to more than 6,000 people.
Due to last year's military system reform, His Majesty Li Er left 3,000 Xuanjia Army as guards of the palace, almost all the rest were arranged into the Right Guard.
At first Duan Zhixuan was very happy, but unfortunately he couldn't be happy later.
Because even though these black armored soldiers took off their black armor, they were still very arrogant.
Duan Zhixuan could not command these people at all, so Zuoying became a pain in Duan Zhixuan's heart.
Such a powerful army could only be seen but not used. In desperation, Duan Zhixuan had to beg His Majesty Li Er to pardon the order to manage it.
So Li Er sent Zhou Daowu, who had grown up in the palace since childhood.
Although Zhou Daowu nominally manages Zuoying, he is actually just an empty affair.
How could these former Xuanjia Army be willing to obey a playboy in their eyes?
This is also the reason why Zhou Daowu was furious when Yang Fan praised Zhou Daowu's future.
Just when Duan Zhixuan and his son thought Yang Fan would be covered in dust, the soldiers on the Zuoying school ground made deafening shouts.
Zhou Daowu, who was also on the squad, was opening his mouth wide and looking disbelief.
