Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather - Chapter 674

Emperor Tianwu thought about his tone and asked, “Is the Yang family in Liaodong strong?”

Zhang Luan and Jian Chengfeng looked at each other and said, “Your Majesty, the Yang family in Liaodong is very strong, and Yang Zhengshan is also very strong!”

“Your Majesty must have heard of Yang Zhengshan, right?”

Emperor Tianwu shook his head, “No!”

So, time can erase any trace of anyone, even Yang Zhengshan is no exception.

He has not appeared in front of the world of Darong for too long, so that no young people today have heard of his name.

Zhang Luan thought for a while and said, “Yang Zhengshan, also known as the first generation of Jing’an Marquis, was born in a farmer. He became the general of Chongshan Town in just over ten years and was named Jing’an Marquis by Emperor Chongzong!”

Emperor Chongzong was Emperor Chengping, and Yang Zhengshan, the Marquis of Jing’an, was granted the title of Emperor Chengping.

“This person is good at training troops, good at military tactics, good at making strange plans, decisive in killing, and wins every battle!”

“The Hu tribe in the East China Sea was destroyed, and Yang Zhengshan made great achievements. The rebellion of King Qing in the previous generation was quelled by Yang Zhengshan, and he also burned the 100,000 Hu cavalry of the Wuliang Hu tribe in one fire!”

“After that, Yang Zhengshan also led the navy to conquer Xingyue Gate and destroy Xingyue Gate in one battle!”

“Lead 30,000 elite troops to fight for 4,000 miles and attack the Wuliang royal court from afar.”

“The split of the Uliang royal court is caused by his battle!”

After hearing this, Emperor Tianwu said, “I remembered it. I had heard of this person before, but didn’t he leave Darong?”

Zhang Luan said: “That’s right, he left Darong, but the Yang family did not leave Darong completely. Chongshan Town and Tenglong Guard have always been in the hands of the Yang family!”

“Now that the army in Chongshan Town has moved south, it must have been instructed by Yang Zhengshan!”

“Your Majesty, Chongshan Town is not only strong in the army, but also many innate warriors, but also more innate warriors in the Yang family!”

Emperor Tianwu frowned slightly and asked, “What does it mean?”

Zhang Luan took a deep breath, “No need to say much about Yang Zhengshan’s cultivation. I can be sure that his strength is far above me. In addition to Yang Zhengshan, his three sons are all innate warriors, and his wife. Yu is also a congenital warrior!”

“Also, the Yang clan has at least five innate warriors.”

“Why did Darong Court dare not touch the Yang family in Liaodong? It is because the Yang family in Liaodong is too strong. Why did Yang Zhengshan leave Darong back then? It is because the Yang family was so strong that the court was afraid of it!”

Emperor Tianwu frowned, “Wouldn’t the Yang family in Liaodong be stronger than Darong’s court?”

Zhang Luan smiled bitterly, “That’s right! If the Yang family comes back, the Yang family and the Yang family in Liaodong will be stronger than the Darong court before!”

He had a good relationship with Yang Zhengshan and had a detailed understanding of the Yang family, so he was most afraid of the Yang family.

Emperor Tianwu was a little unhappy. He felt that the Yang family might be very strong, but Zhang Luan said this a little bit that he wanted to increase others’ ambitions and destroy his own prestige.

“Senior Wang He, do you know about the Yang family?” Emperor Tianwu asked at Wang He who had just joined him.

He still respects Wang He very much, after all, Wang He is also an old senior, and he also helped him win Kyoto.

Wang He stroked his beard and shook his head, “I don’t know much about Yang Zhengshan, but I also know that Yang Zhengshan is not simple!”

He had never dealt with Yang Zhengshan, and their Wang family did not have much friendship with the Yang family, but he had never heard of Yang Zhengshan’s deeds in Kyoto before.

Emperor Tianwu thought about it and felt that it was nothing to pay attention to the Yang family and the Yang family, so he asked, “What do you mean?”

“Raising troops north to block the army in Chongshan Town!” Zhang Luan said without hesitation.

“But our previous plan was to go south into Jiangnan!” Emperor Tianwu said with a frown.

Compared to the wealthy Jiangnan, he really doesn’t like the bitter and cold land of Liaodong.

Although Liaodong has been prosperous in recent years, no matter how prosperous Liaodong is, it is not as good as Jiangnan.

So the plan they had made before was to quickly go south after conquering Kyoto.

Zhang Luan shook his head slightly, “One time, another time, since the Yang family has taken action, we must do our best and must not be underestimated.”

“Your Majesty, the threat from the Yang family in Liaodong is definitely greater than that of King Qing of Jiangnan!”

Emperor Tianwu frowned. He looked at Zhang Luan and then at Jian Chengfeng with an agreement.

“Then raise your troops north!”

Emperor Tianwu naturally has his own strengths when he was able to go from being a mountain king to his current level.

And his biggest advantage is listening to advice.

Willing to accept persuasion by those with ability and ability.

Zhang Luan, Jian Chengfeng and Wang He are undoubtedly the most capable and capable people under his command.

However, Emperor Tianwu also had his own ideas, and he asked, “Can we win over the Yang family?”

This question was asked by Zhang Luan and others.

“This ~~”

Zhang Luan hesitated for a moment, “It’s probably difficult!”

“Why?” Emperor Tianwu asked.

Zhang Luan thought for a while and said, “You can try it, but Your Majesty, don’t have too much expectations!”

Emperor Tianwu just wanted to try it out, and did not think that he could really win over the Yang family under his command.

“Okay, Senior Zhang will be responsible for this matter.”

“As for the matter of raising troops to go north, we are not in a hurry for the time being. We have just experienced a big battle and need time to rest!”

“Everyone first discusses a charter, and then acts in accordance with the charter!”

After some discussion, they decided to let the soldiers rest for ten days before heading north.

It’s not that they don’t want to go north as soon as possible, but they really can’t go north now.

The soldiers need to rest and raise food and grass.

The prefectures north of Kyoto are not in their hands. If they want to go north, they may need to hit them one by one.

The army in Chongqing Town will not be able to come south for a while, so they don’t need to hurry up.

In addition, they must also be wary of Chen Hengchang in Jiangnan.

At this time, Yang Chengye led the 30,000 town camp to Biaoying, and had arrived at Pingyuan Dongyang Prefecture and met Lin Zhan.

When the army of Chongshan Town went south, the first move was not the various generals from Chongshan Town, but the Beihai Navy in Yu Tonghai.

After receiving Yang Chengye’s order, Yu Tonghai immediately led the Beihai Navy to the south. In just three days, they had 10,000 soldiers entering Jizhou and blocked the Ruhe River.

Once the Ruhe River channel is blocked, it is equivalent to cutting off the contact between Liaodong and Kyoto.

Yang Chengye went south and the Ruhe blocked, which meant that the war was coming, but that the dynasty was changed.

The first time Yang Chengye arrived in Dongyang Prefecture, it meant that the Liaodong area had completely changed its dynasty.

The master of Liaodong is no longer Emperor Darong, no longer the Darong court, but the Yang family.

The soldiers and officials of Liaodong quickly accepted this.

From now on, the Liaoyuan and Pingyuan provinces no longer have the jurisdiction of the court, but are directly under the jurisdiction of the General’s Office in Chongshan Town.

Yang Chengye did not become king, nor did he proclaim himself emperor. He just formed the General’s Mansion in the name of the Marquis of Jing’an, all military and political affairs in the Prime Minister Chongshan Town and Liaodong.

In name, he did not rebel, but punished rebellion and supported the country.

In addition to Liaodong, western Liaoning is also included in the jurisdiction of the General’s Office in Chongshan Town.

Yang Qinteng, the general of Jianning Guards in the middle road, and Yang Jishan, the guards in Jinzhou, have led the reinforcements to the south to Dongsheng Prefecture in Liaoxi. Jiang Nanguo, the former governor of Chongshan Town, was appointed as the governor of Liaoxi by Yang Chengye, and commanded all government affairs in western Liaoxi.

Lu Wenyuan had already arrived at Chongshanguan and was the prime minister of the General’s Office. Although this prime minister was a temporary official position, everyone understood that Lu Wenyuan was the first civil servant under the General’s Office.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Zheng Yulin, the former governor of Chongshan Town, was appointed as the governor of Liaoyuan, and Lin Zhan was appointed as the governor of Pingyuan. In this way, the civil service system under the rule of the General was considered to have completed the basic framework.

The arrangement of civil servants in Chongqing Town and Liaodong seems to be a bit ridiculous, but in fact it fully reflects the profound background of the Yang family.

Of course, there is no need to say much about Lu Wenyuan and Lin Zhan, but there are many senior officials like Zheng Yulin under the command of the Yang family, and the Yang family has many young and available officials.

With the Yang family’s background, it is easy to establish a complete small court in Liaodong.

So when Yang Chengye arrived in Dongyang Prefecture, the small court in Chongshan Town had already started to operate efficiently.

A large number of civil servants transported countless food and grass to Jizhou, a large number of troops were launched, a large number of new recruits were recruited, and a large number of civil servants were transferred. For a time, the entire Chongshan Town and Liaodong were busy.

A huge war machine has not only a powerful army, but also a stronger logistics support system.

At this time, Chongqing Town and Liaodong advanced side by side, fully reflecting the powerful logistics support system of the General Mansion of Chongqing Town.

In the yamen of the governor’s office in Dongyang Prefecture City, Yang Chengye and Lin Zhan were discussing the war.

“At present, 300,000 stones of grain and grass have been stored in Jizhou, which is enough for the consumption of a 100,000 army in three months. However, the horse material is insufficient. There are many cavalry in our army, with more than 60,000 war horses, and this horse eats more than people. “” “”

“At present, Jizhou can only guarantee two months of horse feed supply!”

Lin Zhan said while continuing tea for Yang Chengye.

Currently, the army in Chongqing Town is divided into four routes, led by Yang Chengye himself in the middle route. Currently, there are 30,000 towns and battalions, and there are 30,000 Yang family troops in the future, totaling 60,000 troops, of which nearly half are cavalry.

There are two reinforcements battalions on the West Road, Jianningwei and Yang Jishan, Jianzhouwei, and Yang Jishan, Jinzhouwei. There are 15,000 soldiers. They will temporarily station in Dongsheng Prefecture, and can support the army of the middle road, or support Zhou Lan in the northern part of Longyuan.

There are reinforcements camps of Dingliao Wei on the East Road and Songzhou Wei on the East Road, and there are also 15,000 soldiers. They are now on the north bank of the Ruhe River and can cross the river and enter Yongping Prefecture at any time.

There are the Beihai Navy of Tenglong Guard on the water and land, with 3,000 warships of all sizes and 30,000 naval soldiers. They can support the East Road Army in the East China Sea and are also responsible for transporting food and grass for the army.

The food and grass in Chongqing Town went south from Tenglongwei to Jizhou.

The four armies totaled 120,000, and there were more than 40,000 craftsmen and civilians who accompanied the army, as well as 100,000 soldiers and civilians who were responsible for the escort of food and grass.

A total of more than 260,000 soldiers and civilians were dispatched, which could be called a 300,000 army.

It sounds like it has very few troops, far less than Daliang’s 300,000 troops.

But in fact, the 300,000 army in Daliang is not as good as the 300,000 army in Chongqing. Although the 300,000 army in Daliang is regarded as an army, the real elite is less than 100,000, and the rest are not as good as the Chongshan Town. The soldiers.

At present, there is not much difference in the strength of the two sides.

However, the army in Chongshan Town is relatively scattered, and a large number of 300,000 troops are gathered around Kyoto.

“Don’t worry about food and grass. The food and grass in Chongqing Town are enough to support the 300,000 army in a year of battle!” Yang Chengye said with a smile.

Lin Zhan’s eyes lit up, “There is so much food and grass in Chongshan Town?”

These days he has been busy preparing food and grass for the army. Although Pingyuan Province has been relatively prosperous in recent years, Pingyuan Province has not stored too much food and grass.

Lin Zhan has made an estimate that if he is given enough time, he should be able to prepare one million shi of food and grass this year, after collecting the summer and autumn taxes.

At present, he can only mobilize 500,000 shi of food and grass at most.

500,000 shi sounds like a lot, but it is not enough for a few months of consumption for people and horses.

Let’s put it this way, according to the military system of Chongshan Town, an army of 10,000 people will consume about 20,000 shi of food and grass per month, including the rations of the soldiers and the fodder for the war horses.

On average, one person and one horse will consume two shi of food and grass per month.

This is just food, there are also meat, vegetables, etc.

The military rations in Chongshan Town are still very abundant.

Yang Chengye smiled and said, “Grandpa gave me 10 million taels of silver. Starting from a year ago, these silvers were exchanged for food and military equipment and transported to Fuzhou and Tenglongwei.”

“Currently, Fuzhou and Tenglongwei are equipped with a large amount of food and military equipment!”

Lin Zhan showed a look of realization, “So that’s it!”

“But where is the old master?”

Lin Zhan missed Yang Zhengshan a little. He hadn’t seen Yang Zhengshan for more than ten years.

Yang Chengye thought about it, “I don’t know, maybe in Dongyang City!”

He really didn’t know where Yang Zhengshan was. He knew that Yang Zhengshan was in Chongshan Pass before, but he didn’t know where he was now.

He thought Yang Zhengshan should have followed.

“Is that so!” Lin Zhan said, “I don’t know if he is willing to come and see me! I haven’t seen Master and Master’s wife for more than ten years!”

Just as the two were talking, someone outside the door suddenly announced, “My Lord, someone outside the door wants to see you!”

“Who is it?” Yang Chengye asked.

“The people here claim to be An Yuxing, Zhou Tianci and Liang Shengze!”

Yang Chengye and Lin Zhan looked at each other and immediately realized that helpers had arrived.

“Please come in quickly. Forget it. I’ll go and greet them myself!”
