I summoned all the famous generals of history in another world.

Chapter 853 The Emperor's Personal Guard - Xuanlong 2nd Guard!

"Father, elders, I, Yin Jingyi, will not fail you. I will fight with my life to secure a way out for the Yin family and for all of you."

Yin Jingyi took the key, his hand trembling slightly, and looked at his father with excitement in his eyes.

"Jing Yi, now the Yin family's wealth and everything else are in your hands."

"I hope you can lead the Yin family out of this dead end and towards a new life."

Yin Ting's voice carried a mixture of heaviness and anticipation.

Looking at the armor and weapons before him, Yin Jingyi felt an indescribable sense of responsibility welling up inside him.

These are not merely cold weapons, but the fruits of the hard work and hopes of countless ancestors of the Yin family over hundreds of years.

Just as Yin Jingyi was still somewhat excited, Yin Ting suddenly lowered his head and pondered for a moment, a trace of worry flashing in his weathered eyes.

As the current head of a family of generals for generations, he naturally understood that the Yin family alone was like an ant trying to shake a tree, unable to shake the foundation and roots of the Great Qian Dynasty that had stood for hundreds of years.

This dynasty is like a sleeping behemoth; once awakened, its counterattack will be far beyond what the Yin family can withstand alone.

"Jingyi, although our Yin family has accumulated wealth over hundreds of years, we are still far too insignificant in the face of the imperial dynasty."

"If we want to survive this storm, or even turn the tide, we need to find some more allies."

Yin Ting's voice sounded somewhat hoarse due to the series of unexpected events that night.

Upon hearing this, Yin Jingyi's eyes flashed, and he naturally understood the meaning behind his father's words.

Now that the Yin family hastily started their uprising, going it alone is not a wise move. Only by uniting with other powerful families who are also dissatisfied with the royal family can they have a chance of survival.

He waited quietly for his father to continue, already having some guesses in his mind.

"We need to unite with other powerful families who are also dissatisfied with the royal family and act together."

"Only in this way can we gather enough strength to contend with the royal family."

Yin Ting's words were filled with a resolute determination.

Yin Jingyi nodded, secretly admiring his father's foresight.

"Father, which powerful families can we court?"

Yin Jingyi asked in a deep voice, his tone tinged with urgency, for time was of the essence and every step concerned the life and death of the Yin family.

Moreover, the allies they choose to do are of paramount importance; otherwise, one wrong step could lead to utter ruin!

"First of all, there is your mother's maternal family—the Rongguo Duke Feng family. Like our Yin family, they are a family of generals, and in fact, several famous generals have emerged from their previous generations. Their influence in the army was once at its zenith."

"However, in order to suppress powerful families and support the poor, the previous emperor repeatedly suppressed the Feng family. Even several outstanding sons of the Feng family died tragically on the battlefield due to the decisions of the royal family and the scheming of the Xuanjing Division."

"How could the Feng family easily forget this debt?"

Yin Ting smiled slightly, revealing a shrewd and calculating nature.

Upon hearing this, Yin Jingyi's heart stirred. He had heard about the Feng family's plight and understood that this hatred was like a spark that, once ignited, would burn fiercely.

Given their current relationship, the Feng family is undoubtedly a target they can win over.

"Moreover, although the Feng family's power in the military has been greatly weakened, they still have many former protégés and subordinates who remember the Feng family's kindness. If the Feng family raises its banner..."

They will surely respond enthusiastically.

"Moreover, the current Rongguo Duke-Feng family, as compensation from the royal family for their suppression, still controls the left and right guards of the Qianfu Palace among the Emperor's personal guards—the Twelve Xuanlong Guards, and is responsible for the security patrol of the entire dynasty."

"This power should not be underestimated."

Yin Ting paused, glanced at Yin Jingyi who seemed to be deep in thought, and continued.

The Emperor's personal guards - the Twelve Xuanlong Guards, as the name suggests, are the last line of defense for the Great Qian imperial family and even the Great Qian Emperor!

They are divided into the Qianlong Left and Right Guards, the Qianfu Left and Right Guards, the Fengshi Left and Right Guards, the Wuxiong Left and Right Guards, the Chongyan Left and Right Guards, and finally the Jing Guards and the Qiankun Forbidden Guards who are Dao soldiers!

Among these, the Qianlong Left and Right Guards are the strongest guards among the Twelve Xuanlong Guards, except for the Dao soldiers - Qiankun Imperial Guards. They are usually the emperor's personal guards, responsible for the safety of the entire imperial city and the emperor's personal protection. They are usually personally controlled and mobilized by the emperor himself.

The two guards of the Qianfu, which are now controlled by the Feng family, are responsible for the security patrols of the entire imperial city. Well... to put it bluntly, they are the imperial city's "hat uncles" (a term used to describe corrupt officials in the imperial city).

Subsequently, the Left and Right Guards were generally stationed in the imperial mausoleum not far from the imperial city. Nominally, they were the guards who would accompany the emperor on his journeys to offer sacrifices to heaven or to inspect the territory.

However, because the strength of the Qianlong Left and Right Guards was so deeply ingrained in people's minds, the status of the Left and Right Guards became very awkward. Nowadays, they are usually stationed around the imperial mausoleum and have been reduced to the imperial mausoleum garrison. It is unknown how much combat power they still maintain.

The two guards of Wuxiong on the left and right, and the two guards of Chongyan on the left and right, were the field armies among the Twelve Guards of Xuanlong that were truly capable of fighting hard battles against the enemy head-on.

They were usually stationed at various strategic passes around the imperial city, responsible for protecting the entire imperial city.

Finally, there are the Pure Guards and the Daoist Soldiers - the Qiankun Imperial Guards. The Daoist Soldiers need no introduction; they are the strongest trump card held by the royal family. The Pure Guards are all composed of various eunuchs and palace guards, responsible for protecting the safety of the emperor's inner court and harem.

Therefore, when he heard his father say that they could win over the Feng family, who controlled the left and right guards of the Qianfu Imperial Guard, a burning desire flashed in Yin Jingyi's eyes. If the Feng family could join them, it would undoubtedly increase their chances of success.

"Besides the Feng family, there is also the Liu family, the Duke of Hua."

"The Liu family has been in business for generations and is extremely wealthy. Their trade routes cover every corner of the Great Qian Dynasty. However, in recent years, the royal family has been wary of the Liu family and has repeatedly suppressed their trade routes. They have even forcibly levied heavy taxes. In recent years, they have gone even further and have completely treated the Liu family as the royal family's private money bag."

"Although the Liu family appears to be swallowing their anger, they have long harbored resentment towards the royal family. If we can offer them substantial benefits, the Liu family might be willing to join us."

Yin Ting pondered for a moment, then continued.

"In addition, there is the Tong family, the Marquis of Jingbian."

"The Tong family has guarded the frontier for many years and made outstanding contributions. However, in recent years, the imperial family has also been suspicious of the Tong family, repeatedly stripping them of their military power, and even transferring their only legitimate son back to the capital for house arrest."

"How could the Tong family not harbor resentment for such cruelty and ingratitude? As long as we agree to rescue the Tong family's eldest son, the Tong family will definitely fight alongside us."

Yin Ting's words were tinged with coldness.

Listening to his father's words, Yin Jingyi couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration. He hadn't expected his father to know so much about the secrets of the current dynasty.

And despite making such a hasty decision, she was still able to react so quickly and offer him advice.

There's always a story waiting for you to uncover.
