Inside Taiji Palace, Li Shiming was reading the news that Chang Tu had brought back. It recorded everything that had happened to Duan Peng during this period of time, including training silkpants and raising pigs. Everything was recorded very clearly.
" This Duan Peng is really not simple." "I didn't expect that after such a short period of time, I've actually turned this group of silkpants into qualified armed personnel. He's quite capable." Li Shiming laughed.”
"Your Majesty clearly sees that this Duan Peng is indeed extraordinary.”Chang Tupei smiled and replied," His training method is very simple. It's just running and standing in a military posture. However, the results are gratifying." Now, all the lords and Great Generals had to thank Duan Peng whenever they opened their mouths. It had become a rule.”
"Haha, in that case, I really have to thank this kid for resolving the worries of my civil and military officials.”Li Shi Min was in a good mood. He smiled and asked,"Chang Tu, how do you think this one should reward Duan Peng?”
"Your Majesty is wise and will naturally help. This old servant does not dare to say anything.”Chang Tu humbly said. This was where he was smart. Making decisions for the Emperor was the same as seeking death.
Li Shi Min looked at the last three words that appeared on the record and smiled.
"Our Great Tang has twelve guards, and they actually added a Jinyiwei to this one.”Li Shiming smiled and said,"It's not impossible to become a Jinyiwei. I want to see your ability."”
In fact, Li Shiming had wanted to meet Duan Peng since the time of the mandarin duck formation. However, due to a strange combination of factors, he did not succeed. Li Shiming also had the intention to observe in secret. That was why he let Chang Tu send people to secretly monitor everything about Duan Peng and even investigate everything about Duan Peng.
It could be said that from that day onwards, everything about Duan Peng was under the eyes of Second Emperor Li, and every detail was recorded clearly.
More and more records were sent back, and Second Emperor Li was more and more satisfied with Duan Peng. From the initial pure admiration, it became a kind of anticipation.
Chang Tu brought Li Shiming's imperial edict and headed to Duan Peng's temporary security headquarters. Although his subordinates kept sending news that surprised Chang Tu, when he arrived at Duan Peng's temporary security headquarters, he was even more shocked.
There was still a difference between hearsay and seeing it with one's own eyes.
Chang Tu stood in the distance and looked at the silkpants and Xu Guang who were standing in a military posture. He could faintly feel a murderous aura. Although it wasn't like the oppressive murderous aura of the Left Guards, it still made people feel that this was a training ground and they didn't dare to joke around.
Chang Tu straightened his clothes, then held the imperial edict high and entered the temporary security headquarters.
" The imperial edict has been issued. Duan Peng accepts the edict." Chang Tu shouted.
Although Duan Peng was very surprised, he couldn't refuse the imperial edict when it was in front of him. Otherwise, Second Emperor Li wasn't a good-tempered person either.
"I, Duan Peng, accept the decree." Duan Peng said seriously, leading everyone to kneel down.
Although Duan Peng was very resistant to kneeling in his heart, he also knew that this was unavoidable in feudal society. He could only resign himself to fate and do as the romans do.
Li Er's imperial edict wasn't as long and jerky as Duan Peng imagined. It simply and clearly stated Li Er's Majesty's intentions.
The imperial edict told Duan Peng that he was already a rank 8 official lieutenant under the Left Guards Army, but he could build a security headquarters on the spot, and the Branch Office would be in charge of everything.
Duan Peng could recruit 600 soldiers and train them by himself to form an independent army called the Embroidered Guard Camp. Duan Peng would appoint the camp general to take charge of everything.
Chang Tu didn't stay for long. After leaving the imperial edict, he left with his men.
Other than Duan Peng, everyone was dumbstruck. They didn't expect Duan Peng to become a battalion general from a marshal in such a short time. Moreover, he was an independent army and wasn't bound by the Left Guards.
To a newcomer, this was a great trust. Even Duan Peng felt that Second Emperor Li was a little too assured of him.
"Don't say anything else. We have to celebrate tonight.”"Brothers, listen to me! Carry Boss and let's go!" Zhangsun Chong laughed loudly.”
The silkpants, Xu Guang, and the others lifted Duan Peng up and ran directly towards Chengan City. Zhang Qiaoniang smiled helplessly and took the imperial edict to help Duan Peng put it away. Then, she began to pack up everything in the temporary security headquarters so that Duan Peng and the others could celebrate without worry.
Early the next morning, Duan Peng, accompanied by Zhangsun Chong and Li Zhen, two relatively reliable fellows, brought the imperial edict to the Branch Office to collect all the necessary supplies.
This included half a year's salary of four thousand strings of money, six hundred sets of guard uniforms, long weapons, and other weapons. Duan Peng's official residence and armor were all prepared. All of them were packed and transported to the Embroidered Guard Camp by the Branch Office.
Duan Peng asked Xu Guang and the others to move the six hundred sets of security suits into a newly built wooden house to serve as a temporary military arsenal. As for the other two wooden houses, they directly placed weapons as temporary armory.
Just as they finished packing up, the Ministry of Works sent people to build a new security headquarters. They said that they were building a security headquarters, but in fact, they were just setting up a few fences and turning the surrounding ten or so miles into the camp of the Embroidered Uniform Battalion. Then, they left some tents and other things for Duan Peng before leaving.
Fortunately, Duan Peng didn't lack these few people either. He called Xu Guang and the others and Zhangsun Chong, this group of silkpants, and started to set up the tent again.
After busying himself for two full days, the camp of the Embroidered Guards Camp was finally made into a proper appearance. As the camp general of the Embroidered Guards Camp, Duan Peng ascended the tent for the first time.
Xu Guang and Yuan Hong's group of actors and Zhangsun Chong's group of silkpants stood on the left and right. Each of them looked proud and had smiles in their eyes.
"Today, our Embroidered Guard Camp is officially established.”Duan Peng smiled and said," The twenty-eight of us are the roots of this Embroidered Guard Camp. In the future, we must act according to the military rules of our Embroidered Guard Camp. If there is any disobedience, we will be punished according to military law. Do you all understand?!"”
"Understood!" Everyone answered loudly without any hesitation.
Duan Peng nodded and was very satisfied with this kind of reaction. He took the opportunity to read out the new military rules of the Embroidered Guard Camp, including training, various situations during wartime, rewards and punishments, and so on.
"The military rules of the Royal Guards are not only your restrictions, but also your standards.”After Duan Peng finished reading the military rules, he said to everyone seriously,""Let me tell you now, although we have twenty-eight people now, in the future, our Embroidered Guard Camp will be a sharp blade for the country. You will be proud of this name!”
