The 13th year of Zhaoping, October.
Ten miles outside the Border Army Camp.
Marquis Jingbian, Great General Fan, clad in bright silver armor, stood with a group of border army generals. Among them were several who had accompanied Liu Hengchang to the border army as his trusted aides. After a year of training soldiers at the border army, Liu Hengchang returned to the Capital City, leaving these aides behind to serve as mid-level and lower-ranking military generals.
Great General Fan was most perceptive and considerate, significantly raising and utilizing these generals. Today, upon the imperial inspection reaching the border army, Great General Fan led the generals out to welcome them ten miles away.
The familiar Red Flood Dragon Banner fluttered in the earth's tremors.
Her Majesty, the Empress of Da Liang, appeared before the generals with an imposing posture as she rode her steed.
