Wang Fugui called Zhao Tao and rushed towards the Forbidden Army camp in the imperial city with his guards...c
In Dachuan, there are three types of troops.
One is the county soldiers, that is, local troops, which are found in every county in various places. They are small in number and not strong in combat effectiveness. They only play the role of maintaining public order and suppressing bandits.
One is the Forbidden Army, which is the central army of the imperial court. It is a regular army. It is stationed near the capital on weekdays. It is the largest in number and has strong combat effectiveness. Among them, the guards in the capital and the Imperial Guard in the imperial city belong to the Forbidden Army.
Wang Fugui's eldest brother, the eldest prince, is in charge of the Imperial Guard.
The third type is the border guards.
These troops are stationed at the border fortress all year round to guard the country's gates. Because they fight all year round, they are extremely powerful, such as the Great Wall Guards, Yumen Pass Guards, Qinsai Guards, etc.
Many of these border guards are directly under certain generals or are hereditary armies.
For example, the Qi family's army guards Yumen Pass together with the Yumen Pass guards. The Qi family's army only obeys the orders of the Qi family and is classified as a private army. Of course, the number is small, and the court cannot allow such an important pass like Yumen Pass to be completely destroyed.
It fell into the hands of the Qi family.
Five years ago, the Yumen Pass garrison numbered 200,000, which was the strongest army in the entire Dachuan Dynasty. It was an existence that terrified countless monsters, barbarians and other countries in the Western Regions.
The Yumen Pass guard at that time also had a name called...
Yue Family Army!
Although the Yue family army is the imperial guard, it is almost the same as a private army, and it is more loyal than any family's private army.
Yue Qing's prestige in the army is unmatched by anyone. With just one order from him, the Yue family's army can wield their swords against any enemy and be invincible.
Of course, it was precisely because of this that three imperial edicts were issued to recall Yue Qing...
Wang Fugui rode his horse all the way to the outside of the Imperial Guard camp. At this time, Chai Yuan had just arrived.
After the two informed each other, they rode in and met the legendary eldest prince.
The eldest prince is in his early thirties. He is tall and has a sharp face. He has the majesty of a general.
"Sixth brother, Mr. Chai, why are you here? Come in and drink tea."
The eldest prince smiled and stretched out his hand.
"Brother, hurry up and come with me to arrest people."
With a smile on his face, Wang Fugui grabbed the eldest prince's hand and said quickly.
"Arrest someone? Arrest who?"
"On my way back to the capital, there was a guy who attacked us. I didn't catch him and let him run away. This time Qingyu found traces of that guy again. It's in Biancheng. Let's rush there quickly. If we can
Let’s start tomorrow morning.”
"The person who attacked you?"
The eldest prince looked puzzled, then suddenly realized after a moment,
"Remember, I heard about the sneak attack in southern Luochuan last month before you returned to the capital, right? I heard that Marquis Annan and you guys dealt with that person, and in the end he escaped with serious injuries.
, he is still a second-grade strong man, right.”
"Yes, that's that guy. I've caught him this time. I can't let him run away no matter what."
Wang Fugui looked anxious and excited, but felt helpless in his heart.
He really wants to help, and calling him a strong man from Fugui Chamber of Commerce is the most suitable, with strong fighting ability and loyalty, but the problem is, Chai Yuan also wants to help.
When the time comes when your sixth prince calls over a bunch of strong men, how do you explain it?
Therefore, I cannot use my identity as the chief rudder of the Fugui Chamber of Commerce to help, I can only use my identity as the Sixth Prince.
When he thought of this, Wang Fugui became very angry and felt more and more that he should win over Chai Yuan as soon as possible.
But a prince was not enough to deter the Jianghu forces who came to help Gongsun Zhan. He had to recruit an important person who could represent the royal family and the court.
Then only the eldest brother who is the general of the Imperial Guard is most suitable.
The eldest prince is the eldest brother. He has a gentle and generous temperament. He has no ambition and is very friendly to his younger brothers.
Kind and caring, the most important thing is that the eldest prince is a commoner like him.
"Marquis An Nan is here too. That's good. The person who attacked you should indeed be caught and killed.
but……"
The eldest prince looked embarrassed,
"For things like mobilizing the imperial guards, you must have the warrant and edict from the emperor. If you mobilize the troops without permission, even if I am the prince, I will be jailed.
How about you and I go ask Father for instructions first and get the warrant and edict before we go?"
Wang Fugui immediately shook his head,
"This kind of thing cannot be delayed and cannot be delayed. It is getting late now, and it is not certain whether Father will see you or not. If we delay further, what will we do if that guy runs away again?
How can I find him next time?"
The fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better. If they go to lead troops to support and ask for instructions, the mastermind behind it will definitely know about it. When the time comes, that person will cause trouble behind the scenes and what will happen if they can't mobilize the troops?
Now we just lead the troops out without asking for instructions. No one knows what they are doing with the troops."
Wang Fugui believed that the person behind the scenes probably didn't know that Gu Tianfeng was invited by Gongsun Zhan to help.
Of course, if the person behind the scenes knew that even if they reported the news, they would have already set off with their troops and horses, and he would not be able to stop them even if he wanted to.
So faster is better.
"Brother, you are a great general of the Imperial Guard, but you don't even have the power to mobilize troops? Then you are a slut general, why do you treat this as a mascot?"
"What are you talking about? If an emergency occurs, I naturally have the authority to mobilize the Imperial Guard to encircle and suppress the traitor assassins.
Even in normal times, there is no big problem if I mobilize troops with less than a thousand troops, as long as the divisions are well-known."
"That's alright. Isn't this considered an emergency? Murdering the prince is a major crime against the nine clans. Even if you lead troops out of the city, you are still famous."
After thinking for a moment, the eldest prince nodded, feeling that it was polite. Even if his father was asking questions, he could use the excuse of loving his younger brother.
Moreover, my father had always valued and trusted him, otherwise it would not have been possible to entrust him with the command of the Imperial Guard, which was related to his own safety.
The princes knew their father and were most willing to see a harmonious picture of brothers, friends, and brothers. Even if their brains were knocked out in private, they had to show a friendly and kind expression on the surface.
"There are 20,000 Guardsmen. I can't take them all away. I can only take 2,000 at most, just to arrest a few of them. Any more will be unjustifiable."
The eldest prince is a prince after all, and he still has some courage.
"Okay, let's set off now."
The eldest prince called two commanders of the imperial guards and asked them to lead their own troops and follow him into battle.
Soon, an elite cavalry force of two thousand people set off from the imperial city and galloped towards the east.
Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.
While the emperor was looking at the book, Lu Bing, the commander of the Imperial Guards, suddenly asked to see him.
"Xuan."
Lu Bing quickly walked into the imperial study room.
