Big man: I am the Champion Marquis!

Zhao Anguo came to the Guanjun Marquis's mansion with great joy, "Lord, can you really make me a general?"

Huo Xian smiled and said, "That should be the case. They said they would appoint you as General Yan. Just think about it. This means we have to attack Zhaoxin City and the heartland of the Xiongnu!"

Zhao Anguo didn't care about that and said happily, "That's good. We are going to fight the Huns anyway. I think this is not enough. We have to destroy the Huns."

General Wei Qing once captured Zhaoxin City at Yanshan Mountain and seized countless food, fodder, cattle and horses, but this was not the goal of Zhao Anguo and others.

As subordinates of Marquis Guanjun, they should have conquered the Xiongnu and reached the core areas of the Xiongnu. This is what Marquis Guanjun's subordinates should be like.

Although he seemed to be complaining, Zhao Anguo was happy in his heart. This was a proper title of general, much more impressive than his current title of General of the Central Army. Now he was considered as the same as Li Guangli and others.

It can even be said that once this general title is officially conferred, Zhao Anguo will be on the same level as Gongsun Ao and his biological father Zhao Po Nu, both of whom are people with the title of marquis and the official title of general.

In the army, he is second only to the two grand marshals and the rear general Cao Zong. He is on equal footing with the others. This means he has truly entered the top echelons of the Han military and is qualified to lead an army alone.

Zhao Anguo has now achieved his goal of being conferred a title of nobility and appointed a general, and has also reached the pinnacle of his life.

However, Huo Xian poured cold water on him and said, "Although you are going to become a general now, you can only stay in Yulin for the time being and lead the imperial guards."

Zhao Anguo knew this and said with a smile, "If I don't go to the camp, it must be you who will go to the camp often. I will definitely take good care of Yu Lin and Qi Men, because we still have to rely on them to fight hard battles!"

This is true. These two armies are not just imperial guards, but also elite field armies. If they really go to fight the Xiongnu, these two elite troops will be the trump cards in Huo Xian's hands.

Zhao Anguo continued, "Even if I get the title of general now, I won't think of joining the Northern Army."

The Southern Army was controlled by Cao Zong, so Zhao Anguo naturally wouldn't think too much about it. The Northern Army didn't need to think too much either, because His Majesty would definitely not allow it.

Even though Zhao Anguo seemed reckless, he was clear about some of the court affairs. Now he was no longer just a young man who only cared about fighting and killing, but a marquis of the Han Dynasty.

There are some things that everyone knows clearly. Huo Xian is not worthy of the title of Grand Marshal. Even though Huo Xian is recognized by the court and the public as the emperor's most trusted confidant, he is indeed trusted in an extraordinary way.

It's just that the emperor will definitely be on guard because of some power, and no one will have any objections to this.

Huo Xian reminded him, "Although you are still in charge of Yulin and Qimen, it is normal for you to train diligently. You should also pay more attention to the Southern Army and the Northern Army. If you see any useful people, tell me."

Zhao Anguo said without thinking, "Don't worry, my lord. I have been keeping an eye on it. Who among the army who has some ambitions doesn't want to come to our Yulin and Qimen?"

Not only Huo Xian felt comfortable with poaching, but Zhao Anguo was also adept at it.

Qimen and Yulin originally had high entry requirements and only selected some good families to join the army. However, in addition to training and internal recruitment, they also selected a series of outstanding soldiers from the Southern Army and the Northern Army.

Seeing Zhao Anguo's happy expression, Huo Xian naturally became happy as well. He knew that what he did was right and it was all very meaningful.

As a man, who doesn't have some ambitions?
What's more, joining the army, fighting on the battlefield, making achievements, and being awarded a title and become a general, this is also everyone's ambition and pursuit!
As the Marquis of Guanjun, it was even more necessary for Huo Xian to make the soldiers who followed him perform great deeds and make their lives more valuable. He could not just eat meat and get fiefs while his soldiers were in danger of losing their lives.

"I will not send Feng Dan to Yulin and Qimen, nor will I send Congxiao and the others." Huo Xian said, "All the troops in my Guanjun Marquis' Mansion who are above the rank of garrison commander will be sent to the Southern Army and the Northern Army."

Zhao Anguo said with some concern, "My Lord, it is better for you to stay in Yulin and Qimen. I can't always be in charge of these two groups of people now."

Huo Xian could only say earnestly, "An Guo, remember this. Qimen and Yulin are His Majesty's imperial guards, and we are only in charge. It's fine for the people from Guanjun Marquis' Mansion to train there, but they can't stay there for long."

Zhao Anguo understood immediately and said, "Then I will arrange the troops for you, and hand the list to the general, and let him make the arrangements."

Huo Xian smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay, it would be better if the general arranges it, it will definitely be safe. If I arrange it, I'm afraid my troops will have to fight the most difficult battle."

Chen Ju next to him said, "My Lord, we who come out of the Champion Marquis' Mansion are definitely going to fight a tough battle!"

Huo Xian was too lazy to explain to Chen Ju, and just said, "My arrangement is reasonable. Uncle Chen, I am the Grand Marshal and General of Cavalry. If you are capable, how come you don't even have a lieutenant!"

Zhao Hexi and Liu Mo also quickly agreed. Although they also felt that what Chen Ju said made sense, the troops of the Marquis of Guanjun were definitely going to fight a tough battle, which was no problem. But since the Marquis had arranged it, there must be many considerations, and these fighting men and rough men certainly didn't understand, so they just listened and didn't get involved.

Chen Ju was very angry. His two old brothers were always unreliable at critical moments. They didn't know how to think about things and only knew how to listen to the prince.

It's no wonder that many people outside say that the people in Guanjun Marquis' Mansion are unreliable. The old ones are all like this, how can they help the marquis share his worries!
No one cared about Chen Ju's worries. Even Huo Xian didn't care about those things. The main reason was that there was no need to worry too much. Some things could just be left to nature.

He could discuss some matters in the court with the general, the queen, the crown prince, including Gongsun He, Huo Guang and others, all of whom could help him with advice.

As for the military, Chen Ju and others could provide protection and kill the enemy, but they could not be relied upon for other things. As for the so-called rules of the powerful, Huo Xian naturally did not care about those rules. He felt that comfort was the most important thing.

Therefore, it was enough for the Marquis of Guanjun's Mansion to remain as it was before. Huo Xian thought it was good this way. He still enjoyed it very much and naturally did not care what other people said.

The main reason is that Huo Xian is used to doing things his own way, so naturally he doesn't care too much about many things.

Zhao Anguo came to the Marquis of Guanjun's Mansion happily and returned to the military camp happily. Now he just needed to continue training the troops. In a few days, the imperial edict would be conveyed and he could be appointed a general.

Huo Xian was not idle either, and said to Chen Ju, "Take my name card to the court and tell the court official that I feel the security in Chang'an is not good recently, and I want to train soldiers and catch thieves."

Chen Ju immediately said happily, "Lord, should we go to the army to find someone, or can the children of our Guanjun Marquis' Mansion just follow us?"

Huo Xian thought about it carefully and said, "Go to the army and call five people over. Just light cavalry. The village will send another fifteen troops. They can't all be from our village. This is a major event for the court."

Chen Ju and others thought it made perfect sense. Since they were trying to catch thieves, they would definitely need to mobilize the army. It would be absurd if all of them were Marquis Guanjun's men.

Chen Sanlang was speechless. His lord was the Grand Marshal, so why did he like to catch thieves? These were all matters of the Imperial Court. Moreover, he had to bring his troops with him, but he also had to go to the army to call for help.

This is not about arresting thieves. If you don't know, you might think this is about suppressing a rebellion. The Grand Marshal is leading the army personally, how could these be ordinary thieves?

But Chen Sanlang could only complain in his heart. His own lord just liked to catch thieves, and there was nothing others could do. When asked, he said it was a military training, and when asked again, he said that the Weiwei was in charge of the security of Jianzhang Palace.

Even though everyone knows that this is far-fetched talk, as long as His Majesty agrees to these things, no one can control this Marquis of Champion. He has been doing this since he was fifteen or sixteen years old, and everyone is used to it.

Liu Che in Jianzhang Palace soon learned the news and said jokingly, "This Huo Shan is really restless. I don't know which mausoleum town's tyrant is going to be in trouble!"

Huo Guang lowered his head, not knowing how to respond. His nephew just liked to catch thieves, and many people thought that this was just bullying the powerful under the banner of catching thieves, which was basically a regular routine.

Jin Midi thought it was normal. As long as Marquis Guanjun stayed in Chang'an for a long time, he would definitely find time to go to Lingyi to catch the thieves.

A group of elite cavalry broke into the gate, which must be the arrival of the Marquis of Guanjun. If there was peace for a year or two, it could only mean that the Marquis of Guanjun was fighting outside and had not returned to Chang'an, so the tyrants could continue to commit crimes with peace of mind.

Liu Che waved his hand and said, "Let him be, that's just his preference. Look at the list given to him, some of the tyrants and knights are not appropriate, Shan'er knows his limits."

It is true that the emperor favors Huo Shan, but there would not be many people who would speak up for those people arrested by Huo Shan.

This was not really a rural riot; those who could enjoy the treatment of having their homes broken into by the Marquis of Champion were basically people who had committed crimes, and the Marquis of Champion did not like to oppress civilians.

Jin Midi immediately said, "Your Majesty, I will go to the court to convey your order and send the files to the Marquis of Guanjun's mansion."

Liu Che smiled and waved his hands, "He doesn't care to read the files. He only asks about the name and the crime, and doesn't care about anything else. He has always been a soldier since he was a child, and he does things simply and straightforwardly."

However, Liu Che reminded, "Go and tell the Crown Prince that some villains might deliberately insert some names into the list. Don't let Shan'er's reputation be affected."

Huo Guang immediately accepted the order, as it was very important. No one dared to stop the Marquis of Guanjun from arresting people. However, if someone deliberately brought up some unjust cases, then Shan'er's reputation would be affected.

Therefore, the list sent to Shan'er must include those who are truly guilty, so that they can be arrested with greater peace of mind! (End of this chapter)
