God of War Ye Fan: Sexy sister-in-law insisted on marrying me
Chapter 889 - 889: Giving the Red Tiger Army as a Gift to Ye Fan? Just Going with the Flow!“Old Gu, please rise!”
Seeing Gu Tang taking it so seriously, Ye Fan’s expression also became solemn, and he immediately stepped forward to help him up.
In fact, although Ye Fan had thoughts of taking down the Red Tiger Army, even if Gu Tang had not surrendered, he would have stepped in to help Gu Tang cleanse the royal family and Prince Jin’s overreaching influence in the Red Tiger Domain.
Because the Red Tiger Army defending the Red Tiger Domain is too important, serving as a wall of defense for the Northwest of Great Xia against Europa, as well as other barbarians from the northern directions, providing strong deterrence for so many years!
The main reason is that Gu Tang has absolute control over the Red Tiger Domain! But the royal family and Prince Jin do not want Gu Tang to be too powerful!
But they have not considered that once trouble arises here, Europa and the Northwest Barbarians will not let go of Great Xia’s territory. Once the Martial Arts Experts invade, countless civilians will be caught up and affected, which is a matter of great righteousness, not to be influenced by personal desires.
But now, since Gu Tang has expressed his intentions, Ye Fan feels reassured!
After a few words, the two of them walked out of the marshal’s tent side by side.
The atmosphere outside was strange, solemn and tense, oppressively dense, making it hard to breathe.
“Father Marshal? You… are well?”
Seeing Gu Tang for the first time, Gu Changsheng was completely stunned, his eyes wide open, his face full of disbelief.
After exclaiming, his eyes sparkled uncontrollably with ecstatic joy, and he rushed over in a few steps, patting Gu Tang’s shoulder and back left and right.
“It really is Father Marshal! What great benevolence! Young Master Ye is a divine being… please accept my bow…”
Overjoyed, Gu Changsheng spoke in an archaic manner and actually bowed to Ye Fan…
Ye Fan was somewhat helpless, but he did not stop him!
An hour ago, Gu Tang, who had gray hair and a withered physique, now suddenly regained his former vigor, and even seemed stronger than before, it was like a dream.
Ye Fan gave him a huge surprise, and even though he was somewhat prepared, the sudden reality was naturally overwhelming.
“It’s me! You… when will you stop talking so pedantically? Speak plainly?”
Gu Tang glared at Gu Changsheng, lightly scolding him with a stern face, yet his eyes were full of indulgence.
“Rest assured, father! I will do all I can… to correct my mistakes…”
Gu Tang shook his head helplessly and exchanged a look with Ye Fan beside him!
His own son was good at everything, just too fond of reading those ancient texts, leading to his archaic way of talking!
“Congratulations, Great Commander!”
At this moment, a group of Gu family’s trusted aides, Red Tiger Guards, and others also came to their senses, their expressions excited, and they all bowed on one knee together.
Gu Tang waved his hand, “I owe my present position to a rebirth-like favor, all thanks to Young Master Ye’s intervention!”
The generals and guards all turned their eyes towards Ye Fan, lowered their heads and again shouted in unison, “Thank you, Young Master Ye, for your heroic efforts in saving the Red Tiger Army from dire straits!”
To this, Ye Fan remained composed, merely smiling and nodding, “No need for such formalities, please rise.”
While speaking, suddenly there came a sound of iron hooves thundering in the distance, with clouds of dust rising, resembling a sandstorm blowing up.
Clearly, it was a signal of a large Iron Cavalry army swiftly approaching, possibly tens of thousands in number.
At the forefront of the army, a hundred iron cavalry galloped forward, coming to an abrupt halt near them, their steps uniform.
Over a hundred officers dismounted, and the one at the head, an older man with a short beard dressed in military attire, led them quickly forward.
Upon approaching, he clasped his fists and knelt on one knee, “Great Commander, Shan Lianshan leading the army has arrived late, I hope the Great Commander will forgive me.”
This person is none other but the leader of the three Vice Commanders of the Red Tiger Camp, named Shan Lianshan, an absolute confidant of Gu Tang, and has been battling alongside him in the Northwest Border battlefield for over thirty years, as close as brothers.
For this reason, the hundred thousand Iron Cavalry of the Red Tiger Camp has always been led by Shan Lianshan, stationed around the central camp for tens of miles.
Just now, Shan Lianshan received the news that there was a revolt in the camp. Vice Commanders Hu and Zhou were each leading their confidants to besiege the command tent.
In a fit of rage, he immediately mobilized thirty thousand soldiers and hurried over…
“It’s fine that you’ve come, not late at all.”
Gu Tang waved his hand, summoning Shan Lianshan and over a hundred other commanders, all loyal and devoted, who were overjoyed to see his recovery from poisoning, and congratulated him with fists clasped.
In just a moment, the thirty thousand Iron Cavalry that followed stopped a hundred paces away, and as the dust settled, a mighty army of Iron Cavalry stretched beyond sight, its awe-inspiring militaristic might dissuading anyone from looking too closely.
“With all the commanders gathered, today is a good opportunity for me to announce something.”
Scanning the commanders, Gu Tang’s expression became stern, commanding respect without anger, “Although I’m in the command tent, I’ve been afflicted with Time Poison, indicating there are covetous eyes. The disorder within the Red Tiger Army is apparent and precarious.”
“Fortunately, Young Marshal Ye Fan has grace in his action, and saved my life, thereby saving the entire Red Tiger Army.”
“Therefore, I decide, from this moment on, Young Ye is a great benefactor of the entire Red Tiger Domain! Seeing Young Ye is akin to seeing me; no need for orders, he can mobilize my Red Tiger Domain’s million-strong army!”
“Among you, who supports and who opposes?”
At these words, the generals were taken aback.
But there was no feeling of rejection, all were Gu Tang’s core confidants, loyal without question. Since Ye Fan had saved Gu Tang’s life, he was their savior as well.
“We will follow the Commander’s orders! Greetings to Young Ye!”
In an instant, over a hundred commanders, thousands of Red Tiger Guards, and the thirty thousand Red Tiger Army soldiers standing a hundred paces away, all clasped their fists and knelt on one knee, paying a deep respect to Ye Fan.
Ye Fan immediately raised his hand, “Generals, please rise!”
“I object!”
As his words fell, from among the hundreds of people bound by fine steel chains beside the command tent, a discordant voice arose.
Everyone’s gaze turned, and saw that the speaker was none other than the leader, Vice Commander Hu, “Gu Tang, although you are the commander of the Red Tiger Army, you’re merely receiving royal stipends, temporarily overseeing the Red Tiger Army.”
“What right do you have to offer the Red Tiger Army to Ye Fan as a gift? What right does Ye Fan have to command the royal family’s Red Tiger Army? Are you intending to rebel?”
“How dare you question Young Ye and me? You should worry about yourself first.”
Gu Tang’s face darkened, and he rebuked sharply, “I ask you, Ye previously attended to me in the command tent to treat my poisoning. Changsheng clearly stated to avoid disturbances, and even specifically ordered my Bodyguards to guard outside the tent.”
“Yet, you and Zhou Li, brought your men and Bodyguards to forcefully enter my tent, causing chaos inside, affecting Young Marshal’s performance, and putting me in life-threatening danger. What are your intentions?”
At these words, the eyes of hundreds of commanders nearby and the thirty thousand Iron Cavalry soldiers afar all bore an intense scrutiny.
“That’s not true, how could I purposely create chaos?”
Vice Commander Hu stubbornly refused to admit it, “I was just worried about the Great Commander’s safety, wanting to bring a military doctor to examine him.”
“But Gu Tang not only showed no gratitude but also yelled at me, and even ordered the Red Tiger Guards to intervene, along with outsiders, to tie me and all my subordinates up and push us into the Military Prison, clearly misjudging our good intentions!”
“This act disheartens the soldiers of the three armies!”
