The Prodigal Son's Happy Life - Chapter 299
[Chapter 299 Leaving the city?]
General Fang is a generous man.
At least, that’s how it looked in the eyes of the two guards at this moment.
Even though he didn’t know his superior, General Fang didn’t care about him.
But only Fang Xiu and the captain knew the reason.
Fang Xiu patted the two people’s shoulders to encourage them, and then walked towards the camp.
The captain next to him followed behind him.
Fang Xiu knew this person. He was one of the captains under Sun Teng at the time. However, after Sun Teng’s death, he knew what was going on. He was safe and sound under his command and never did anything out of the ordinary.
Fang Xiu also kept him until now.
“Where is General Liang?”
Fang Xiu asked as he walked.
When the captain heard this, he hurriedly stood up and said respectfully: “General, General Liang is discussing daily training with the subordinates in the camp. Presumably, he is still there now.”
Fang Xiu nodded and said no more .
asked, and walked towards Liang Hu’s camp.
The two guards guarding the door of the camp were both veterans. When they saw Fang Xiu, a look of surprise appeared on their faces. Then, they stood upright and said respectfully: “General Fang!”
Fang Xiu waved his hand, indicating that no need. Duo Li opened the curtain of the tent and walked in.
The space inside the tent is not large, and there are several desks placed there.
Liang Hu sat at the front, and the other captains lined up on both sides.
Seeing someone suddenly break in, everyone in the camp was a little confused.
Liang Hu was the first to react. He stood up from the front of the case, bowed respectfully, and said, “General.”
Seeing this, the other people came to their senses and stood up to salute.
Fang Xiu waved his hand, walked straight to Liang Hu’s seat at the front, and sat down.
Liang Hu consciously gave up his position and stood aside respectfully.
In his heart, the entire pro-military army, even the real generals, did not deserve his respect.
General Fang was the only one who personally promoted himself from a small civilian captain to a right lieutenant general. He kept this kindness in his heart.
You must know that in a place with a very strict hierarchy like Chu State, it is extremely rare for a soldier from an ordinary family to reach the position of captain.
Then he said that he himself crawled out of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood, and fought on the border with the grassland tribes for who knows how many years before he obtained the title of a school captain.
After returning to the capital, in less than two months, he was able to become the Youzhonglang General of the Youyu Forest Guards. All this was due to General Fang recommending him in front of His Majesty.
Without the general’s recommendation, he might have to sit in this position for the rest of his life.
Although the other captains did not have the same respect as Liang Hu, they were also in awe of their superior officers.
In the past, when the prodigal son of Fang Mansion was mentioned, the most he would be disdainful of.
However, after getting in touch with Fang Xiu during this period, they realized what kind of ruthless character this playboy and prodigal son was known to be.
As soon as he arrived at Youyu Linwei, he drove out Sun Teng, the well-established Youzhonglang general, and appointed his own cronies without causing His Majesty’s disgust.
In addition, with the right feather Lin Wei, who was not considered the top among the sixteen guards, he broke out of the tight encirclement and made the pro-military review transparent.
Coupled with what happened at the Honglu Temple banquet, this kind of thing caused a great change in their mentality.
For his direct superior, he has gone from disdain to respect and fear now.
After Fang Xiu sat down, his eyes stayed on the captains for a moment, and then he said: “According to your Majesty’s order, during this period, the right feather forest guard will be under the full command of this general.”
This sentence was said without any beginning or end. After everyone heard this, they all felt a little confused, more or less.
What does it mean to be under the full command of this general? Aren’t you originally the general of Lin Wei at the right wing? ?
Could it be that General Tian wants to give up his position to you?
This is a bit incredible.
Since the establishment of the Sixteenth Guards of the Pro-Army, it seems that there has never been such a young general.
You know, their Shangguan has not yet reached the rank. Fang
Xiu did not answer their questions, but continued: “During this time, you can sort out your luggage and follow me out of the city.”
“This”
everyone heard. After saying this, they looked at each other even more confused, somewhat confused.
General, are you confused? We are the pro-army troops in the city.
You are not allowed to leave the imperial city. If you do, who will guard Your Majesty?
And this matter is not trivial. If His Majesty finds out, all of them might be implicated.
Not to mention them, even their family members may be implicated.
Even if General Fang asked them to do this, they would not dare to act rashly.
When Fang Xiu saw this scene, he glanced at them and said calmly: “If you have any questions, it’s okay to ask.”
Only when he was in the Yulin Guards did he have such a serious side.
Because he knew that facing these people, without a certain momentum and a certain posture, it would be impossible to intimidate them.
Lowering his head, a captain hesitated for a moment, but couldn’t help but said: “General, it’s not that we don’t obey your order, it’s just that this matter is of great importance. Should it be reported to the Ministry of War, the Cabinet and the Palace?
With His Majesty’s approval, From now on, it’s never too late to take action.”
This sentence is very secretive.
No one present was stupid, and it was easy to understand the voice behind these words.
Without His Majesty’s decree, we will not move.
You can do whatever you want, don’t involve us in such a fatal matter.
When Fang Xiu heard this, he didn’t have much reaction. He just nodded. Then, he took out an imperial edict from his arms and said, “You are right.
This is His Majesty’s edict, commanding You Yulin to Wei went out of the city to develop a powerful weapon for fireworks. During this period, all matters, no matter how big or small, will be handled by this general.”
After hearing this, everyone was slightly startled, and then they looked strange.
The most important tool for developing fireworks?
What does this mean? Their feelings moved them outside the city just to develop fireworks?
This is a bit too ridiculous.
Several people looked at each other. If they hadn’t seen the imperial edict in Fang Xiu’s hand, they would hardly have believed that what Fang Xiu said was true.
Could it be that General Fang’s brain disease has occurred again?
This idea only appeared in my mind for a moment and was rejected.
Facts have proven countless times that General Fang’s brain disease will only occur when it should be committed.
For example, accidentally cutting off the arm of the Minister of Rites, or bumping into Prince Ning at the banquet.
Obviously, the brain disease was just an excuse, and General Fang was actually many times smarter than everyone they knew.
So what exactly does this mean?
Is it true that we are asked to go outside the city to develop fireworks?
