"Oh!"
Ye Xin frowned and looked at Cao Huachun without saying anything.
"Huachun, just tell me your thoughts. After you go out, don't make a sound, understand?”
Whether Yuan Chonghuan had a problem or not, Ye Xin still couldn't judge. However, as the ruler of a country, even if he was suspicious of Yuan Chonghuan, he should calm down and wait until he saw the situation clearly.
Ye Xin did this to appease Yuan Chonghuan. Yuan Chonghuan's matter was still unclear, so Ye Xin planned to wait and see.
After Yuan Chonghuan's reply was sent out, Ye Xin called Cao Huachun over, saying that he wanted to inspect the army.
"Huachun, is the Brave Guards Battalion of my Prince Xin's estate still in the capital?”
"Emperor, of course! Now that the Valiant Guard Battalion is your private armed force, they are stationed outside the city. As long as you say the word, the Valiant Guard Battalion will immediately rush in to help!”
"Alright, I don't need the help of the Brave Guard Camp now. However, bring me out to take a look. I want to see the situation of the Brave Guard Camp!”
Before Sun Chuanting left, he had instructed Ye Xin to train a private army in the capital to defend the capital.
In the late Ming Dynasty, there were many powerful military forces. For example, the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, Sun Chengzong and Yuan Chonghuan's Guanning Iron Cavalry, Sun Chuanting's Qin soldiers, and Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army. They were all very powerful military forces.
Among these military forces, there was a very powerful but easily overlooked army, which was the Yongwei Battalion of Emperor Chongzhen's imperial guards.
The Brave Guard Battalion did not have many people, only a few hundred, but they were made up of martial arts experts. The strength of this Brave Guard Battalion was very strong. In the later stages of the battle, they had encountered the Manchu Eight Banners. With just a few hundred people, they had forced the Manchu Eight Banners to retreat. This showed how strong the Brave Guard Battalion was.
Cao Huachun was Emperor Chongzhen's trusted aide when he was Prince Xin. He had always been the one leading the Brave Guard Battalion. After hearing Ye Xin's instructions, Cao Huachun quickly brought Ye Xin to the place where the Brave Guard Battalion was stationed outside the city.
As an army formed by martial artists, the Brave Guards Battalion was stationed in a mountainous area. Usually, the experts of the Brave Guard Camp were not trained to charge like the army, but to fight alone, so that they could fight against ten in the palace.
But now, what Ye Xin needed was a cavalry force that was good at fighting. Ye Xin did not need the Valiant Guard Camp to fight in the palace, but to protect the capital.
"Your Majesty!"
When the people of the Brave Guard Camp saw Ye Xin come over, they all came over and bowed respectfully to him.
"Hehe, everyone is too polite! Everyone followed me here from Prince Xin's Imperial Residence. We are all acquaintances, so there's no need to be so polite!”
Ye Xin was very familiar with the soldiers of the Valiant Guard Camp. This way, he could show the soldiers that Ye Xin would not forget his roots, and this would encourage them to serve him even more.
As expected, when Ye Xinxin treated the soldiers with such a cordial attitude, the soldiers felt that they had been chosen by the emperor and were very excited.
"Everyone, you have been stationed outside the city for some time. I have not asked you to go to the city during this period of time. Do you know why?”
"Reporting to the emperor! We felt that the Emperor had sent us here to protect the Emperor's succession. Now that the Emperor's throne is secure, he naturally doesn't need us to enter the capital to protect him!”
"Well said! I indeed don't need your protection now, but the Great Ming Empire still needs your protection! Back then, you were trained to protect me, but now, I hope to retrain you to protect the Ming Dynasty!”
"This…"
The soldiers of the Brave Guard Camp were all martial arts experts. It was definitely not a problem for these people to be bodyguards and participate in the palace struggles to fight against a hundred people. However, if they were to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, they might be a little weaker than ordinary soldiers.
After all, on the battlefield, it was important to work together as a team. This was very different from the one-on-one battles of ordinary martial artists.?
Thus, after Ye Xin expressed his intention to train them on the battlefield, the soldiers of the Valiant Guard Camp looked at each other and did not immediately agree.
Ye Xin looked at the reactions of the soldiers and knew what they were thinking, so he smiled and continued to encourage them.
"Your Majesty!"
"Good, that's great!"
Ye Xin looked at the determined gazes of the Brave Guard Camp and felt very satisfied.
"Everyone, don't worry! Since you have entrusted your lives to me, I will definitely be responsible for you! Zhen will now lead you and forge you into the most elite armored lions of Great Ming!”
