Li Xuancang set out for Anzhou City with his parents, eldest sister's family, and a group of servants, accompanied by thirty-one elite personal guards.

These thirty-one soldiers were seasoned veterans who had fought alongside him, loyal and formidable.

Their presence was not only for protection but also to serve as the core leadership for the thousand elite troops he would command in the future.

As he headed to Anzhou City to assume his post, he needed support to quickly gain control of the army.
