Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather
Chapter 145: Inspection of the Tunbu
The next day, Yang Zhengshan came to Chengguanbao again with more than a dozen carts of food and two large boxes of silver.
Under the expectant gaze of the soldiers, Yang Zhengshan handed them portions of food and silver.
In fact, each soldier did not get much food and silver, only three buckets of food and one tael of silver, but this was an extra income and was not included in their food and salary.
In this regard, the soldiers were very happy and had more recognition and respect for Yang Zhengshan in their hearts.
In fact, as the training unfolded, Yang Zhengshan's image in their hearts had become taller.
The training was very hard, and many people complained about it.
But every time they ate the food full of oil stars, their complaints disappeared.
Having enough food is still their biggest pursuit.
Although they used to follow Xu Wanfu, and Xu Wanfu had a lot of silver in his hands, in fact, whether Xu Wanfu had silver or not had nothing to do with them, and Xu Wanfu would not kindly share the silver with them.
At most, Xu Wanfu did not deduct their food and wages, but the problem is that the food and wages sent down from above are not enough, and Xu Wanfu will not pay for it himself.
Therefore, these soldiers could not get the full amount of food and wages before.
Yang Zhengshan not only let them eat enough, but also gave them the full amount of food and wages, and even gave them a festival gift during the New Year.
With such a leader, let alone let them train, even if they were asked to go through fire and water, they could grit their teeth and persevere.
Of course, now they can only grit their teeth and persevere. If they want them to willingly go through fire and water for Yang Zhengshan, Yang Zhengshan must continue to show his favor.
"Thank you for the reward, sir!"
On the parade ground, a soldier who had just received food kowtowed to Yang Zhengshan with tears in his eyes.
His kowtow made Yang Zhengshan stunned.
The soldiers before him also thanked him, but they only thanked him with the fist-holding military bow. This kowtow was the first one.
"The ground is cold, get up!" Yang Zhengshan said softly.
The soldier stood up from the ground with his head down, raised his hand to wipe the tears from his eyes, and then walked away quickly.
There were many soldiers waiting behind him, and he couldn't delay too much time.
Yang Zhengshan looked at his back, thought about it, and said to Song Dashan beside him: "Go and ask what's going on?"
"Yes!"
Song Dashan responded, and Yang Zhengshan continued to distribute the New Year gifts.
There were nearly a thousand soldiers in the garrison camp, and Yang Zhengshan handed the gifts to them personally without missing a single one.
When the distribution was over, it was almost dusk.
However, Yang Zhengshan still didn't forget the soldier, "What's the matter with that man?"
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that his mother is sick, and the cost of taking medicine is relatively high recently." Song Dashan said.
People are born, grow old, get sick, and die, which is inevitable.
But for these ordinary soldiers, a serious illness will not only kill people, but also make a family become penniless.
Not to mention here, even in the past life, it is not uncommon for people to become poor due to illness.
"Let the doctor in the government office go to see his mother!"
Yang Zhengshan didn't have a good solution for this matter.
He mentioned the idea of training military doctors in the military training records, but there is no military doctor in the garrison camp now.
Moreover, military doctors and doctors are two completely different professions. Military doctors only need some emergency skills, which is relatively simple to train, but it is much more difficult to train doctors.
There is only one doctor in the garrison office.
Yang Zhengshan thought about training more military doctors and doctors in the future, but now he should let the doctor go to see the mother of the soldier first.
"If you need medicinal materials, there are also in the government office, you can use them yourself!"
Yang Zhengshan continued to instruct Song Dashan.
"Yes!" Song Dashan responded.
Yang Zhengshan nodded and returned to the garrison office.
…
After the annual gifts of the garrison camp were distributed, Yang Zhengshan led 300 soldiers of the garrison camp and escorted more than 30 carts of food and grass out of the city the next morning.
The Anyuan Prefecture Garrison Office has two defense officers and seven garrison officers, which means there are nine garrisons.
Yang Zhengshan certainly cannot visit all the fire towers and beacons, but he has to visit all the nine garrisons in person.
Twenty miles out of the north gate of Anyuan City, they came to the first garrison, Shalingbao.
Shalingbao has a defense official office, which is responsible for governing the three surrounding garrisons. The defense officer is called Xie Yuan.
Yang Zhengshan did not have much impression of Xie Yuan. Although he had seen Xie Yuan several times, Xie Yuan's presence seemed to be very low and did not leave any impression on Yang Zhengshan.
"Shalingbao Defense Officer Xie Yuan greets the garrison!"
In front of Shalingbao, Xie Yuan strode over and bowed with his fists.
Yang Zhengshan was riding on his horse, looking at the defense officer with some surprise.
Xie Yuan was neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, and looked ordinary, and there seemed to be nothing special about him.
This was probably why Yang Zhengshan had not noticed him before.
But now Yang Zhengshan felt that this subordinate seemed to be very extraordinary.
His big strides did not conceal his momentum at all, and his deep eyes were full of sharpness that could not be ignored.
"No need to be polite!" Yang Zhengshan was surprised in his heart, but said calmly on the surface.
"Thank you, sir!" Xie Yuan stood up and said, "Please come in, sir!"
Then the group entered Shaling Fort.
Shaling Fort is a large fort with two hundred military households in it.
Yang Zhengshan originally thought that Shaling Fort would be a dirty and dilapidated fort, but he did not expect that Shaling Fort was actually very clean and tidy, and the soldiers and military households were also full of energy. It was not what Yang Zhengshan had imagined. Extremely thin.
Under the guidance of Xie Yuan, Yang Zhengshan walked towards the defense government office while looking at the surrounding situation.
It's not surprising that he had such thoughts before, after all, Cao Han was the guard of Anyuan City, Xu Wanfu was the general manager, and Tian Gui was the garrison officer.
With these three Shangguan here, one can imagine what the Tunbao below would be like.
"Master Xie's cultivation level is not low, right?" Yang Zhengshan asked lightly.
"The lower official's qualifications are stupid, and after thirty years of training, he is only on the fourth level of acquired skills!" Xie Yuan said.
The corner of Yang Zhengshan's mouth curled up slightly, the fourth level of Houtian was indeed not outstanding.
However, among defensive officers, such a level of cultivation is already considered quite high.
"Yes, Mr. Xie's management of Tunpu is very good!"
"The lower officials are incompetent and can only take care of Shaling Fort!" Xie Yuan said with a look of shame.
The corners of Yang Zhengshan's mouth raised even higher.
This Master Xie is an interesting person.
His cultivation level is not low, but he has never shown it.
His abilities are good, but they are easily overlooked.
A capable and powerful person who had not left the slightest impression on Yang Zhengshan before.
Moreover, this person did not even notice the secret military guard. There was no information about Xie Yuan in the booklet Wei Cen gave him.
Hiding clumsiness?
"Call all the soldiers!" Yang Zhengshan ordered.
"Sir, wait a moment!"
Xie Yuan said something and ordered people to gather the soldiers.
The clanging gong sounded, and within three minutes more than a hundred soldiers gathered in front of the government office.
Looking at the more than a hundred soldiers standing upright, Yang Zhengshan looked at Xie Yuan with increasingly interesting eyes.
"Master Xie is very good at hiding his clumsiness!"
Xie Yuan lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "This official is not willing to hide his clumsiness!"
Yang Zhengshan understood what he meant. Hiding one's clumsiness was just a helpless move. Just like Han Cheng had to choose to surrender, facing Cao Han and Xu Wanfu, they had to restrain their sharpness and be willing to do nothing.
In fact, this situation is not uncommon in Chongshan Town.
In the past twenty years, Chongshan Town has turned from prosperity to decline. A large number of greedy and incompetent people have controlled power, leaving truly capable people with no hope of promotion.
Some fools will face up to this injustice, but there are also smart people who will curb their sharpness and choose to hide their clumsiness.
The reason why Zhang Shouwang lost was because basically all the senior officials in Chongshan Town were mediocre people.
The reason why Liang Chu brought Yunlong Guards to take office was because he knew that Chongshan Town was rotten to the core, and he had to bring his own soldiers to help him reorganize Chongshan Town.
The reason why Zhou Lan cleaned up the Jianning Guards was because she saw clearly that those military attaches were not available at all.
And what about Yang Zhengshan?
Wasn't he also inspecting Tunpu to clean up the borers like Tian Gui?
But he didn't expect that there was actually a useful person hidden among them.
From the soldiers in front of him, Yang Zhengshan could see that Xie Yuan had not neglected military affairs and should train these soldiers regularly.
"Don't you have to hide your clumsiness now?"
"Your Excellency is upright, why should a lower official hide his clumsiness?" Xie Yuan said softly.
He knew very well what Yang Zhengshan had done during this period.
It was precisely because he knew it that he chose not to hide it anymore.
Who would want to do nothing if they can show off their skills and make great achievements?
He is not young anymore, and his chances are running out. He finally waited for Yang Zhengshan, and he didn't want to be a fortified official who did nothing.
Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, stroked his beard, and said: "Distribute food, let the soldiers have a good year first, and we will talk about other years later!"
Regarding Xie Yuan's situation, Yang Zhengshan still needs to be more cautious.
Although Xie Yuan's performance today was beyond his expectation, he couldn't believe everything in front of him so easily.
Hiding does not mean that you can only hide your stupidity, it may also be a way to cover up your evil deeds.
He needs to truly understand Xie Yuan before he can decide whether to reuse Xie Yuan.
The distribution of food was very fast. In just half an hour, Yang Zhengshan distributed the prepared food and money to the soldiers.
Then he did not stop at Shaling Fort, but took Xie Yuan towards other forts.
Xie Yuan, the defense officer, was in charge of four forts. In addition to Shaling Fort, there were three more forts, all of which were relatively close to Anyuan City.
Although they are all under the jurisdiction of Xie Yuan, the situation of the other three forts is much worse than that of Shaling Fort.
Dirty, dilapidated, poor, etc.
It was similar to the situation when Yang Zhengshan first arrived at Yinghe Fort.
This was the situation after Yang Zhengshan warned these fort officials, so what was the situation before the warning.
Under the flattery and flattery of the three fort officials, Yang Zhengshan distributed food and money to every soldier.
He was not in a hurry to deal with these fort officials, but left with a gloomy expression.
The gloomy look on his face meant that he was very dissatisfied, which made the three fort officials feel uneasy.
In fact, Yang Zhengshan had already made a decision in his heart, and these three fort officials would be able to live until the end of the year.
