Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

Just when Yang Zhengshan was sleeping soundly, the General's Mansion received the latest battle report from Jiacheng.

However, it was not Liang Chu who was in charge of the General's Mansion at this time, but Lu Chongde.

Liang Chu had already led the army to the battle, and Lu Chongde was in charge of the military affairs of Chongshan Town.

"Sir, Jiacheng battle report!"

In the study, a clerk put a document on the desk in front of Lu Chongde. Lu Chongde just nodded and did not check the battle report immediately.

After he finished his official business, he picked up the battle report and read it.

He just glanced at it and frowned slightly.

Jiacheng has almost a battle report every day these days, and most of the content of the battle report comes from Yang Zhengshan, the garrison of Anyuan City.

The general content is that Yang Zhengshan led the garrison camp to attack a certain tribe on a certain day and night, how many enemies were killed, how many heads were beheaded, how much was seized, etc.

If it was just one or two times, Lu Chongde would naturally not find it strange, but for seven consecutive days, one report every day, which made him feel a little strange.

You say he doesn't believe it, and he thinks Yang Zhengshan shouldn't do such a mess.

Although he has never met Yang Zhengshan, he has heard a lot about Yang Zhengshan, such as the marriage between the Yang family and the Marquis' Mansion. How could he not know about this?

For example, Yang Zhengshan once helped the Secret Guard to investigate the case of treason, the relationship between Yang Zhengshan and Zhou Lan, etc.

Although Yang Zhengshan's official position is not high, because of these reasons, he still knows Yang Zhengshan very well, including Yang Zhengshan's record in Yinghe Fort.

But you want him to believe it, he can't believe it no matter how he thinks about it.

Lu Chongde looked at the latest battle report, pondered for a while, then looked up and asked the clerk who was helping him handle official business: "Has Captain Yan set off?"

"Report to the adults, Captain Yan set off yesterday!" The clerk replied.

Lu Chongde nodded and said: "Then suppress the battle report of Jiacheng first, and send it to Kyoto after Captain Yan confirms it!"

Before accurately verifying the battle exploits, he really couldn't send the battle report to Kyoto.

Because once it is sent to Kyoto, it means that everyone in Chongshan Town has recognized this military achievement.

Although the General's Office had sent Yuan Wanli to verify the military achievement before, Lu Chongde felt that Yuan Wanli might help Yang Zhengshan to falsify it.

This possibility is very low, but it must be prevented.

So yesterday he specifically asked the Secret Guard to verify Yang Zhengshan's military achievement, that is, the Captain Yan in his mouth.

There should be no problem with the Secret Guard verifying the military achievement!

Even if there is a problem, it is the problem of the Secret Guard.

Even the Secret Guard was deceived, so naturally all the blame is on him.

Lu Chongde's calculations were very loud in his mind.

…

Yang Zhengshan slept until noon, and the fatigue all over his body disappeared without a trace, replaced by full of vitality.

Getting up from the bed, Yang Zhengshan stretched his waist hard, and bursts of dull thunder sound came out of his body.

Oh~~

The comfortable feeling made Yang Zhengshan couldn't help but scream.

"Sir, you are awake!"

Outside the door, Zhou Ren had been waiting for some time, listening to the voice in the tent, and asked softly.

"Awake!"

Yang Zhengshan responded clearly, then picked up the brand new clothes and clean armor beside him and put them on.

"Is there something?"

Yang Zhengshan asked Zhou Ren while tidying up his clothes and armor.

Zhou Ren said: "Sir, there are people coming from Chongshan Pass again, saying that they want to verify the military exploits. Sir Yuan has taken them to check the heads!"

"When did they come?" Yang Zhengshan asked indifferently.

"About an hour ago!"

Yang Zhengshan paused slightly. An hour ago, he came and did nothing, and went directly to verify the military exploits?

This is a surprise attack!

"Do you know who it is?"

"I don't know, the other party just showed the token and official documents of the governor's office. They are a group of twenty people, and they look a bit difficult to mess with!" Zhou Ren expressed his impression of the visitor.

"Not easy to mess with!" Yang Zhengshan rubbed his soft beard, thinking.

It's the governor's office, not the general's office!

This is actually nothing.

The governor is in charge of the administration, military affairs, supervision, etc. of Chongshan Town. He can be said to be a real frontier official. Now Liang Chu is leading troops outside, so it is normal for Lu Chongde to send people to verify the military exploits.

However, after the other party came, he did nothing and went directly to check the heads, which obviously showed his suspicion of him.

"Forget it, where are the people? I'll go and see!"

Suspicion is inevitable, but let's see the specific situation first.

After that, Yang Zhengshan and Zhou Ren came to the previous settlement of Zaltz.

At this time, the settlement of Zaltz had become a ruin, but the heads of Zaltz were still there. Wang Sheng and Yuan Wanli helped to treat them with lime, which can be preserved for a long time.

"Captain Luo, there are only more than 5,000 heads here. Because there are too many heads, we didn't transport them all back!"

Yuan Wanli stood in front of a thin middle-aged man and said with a bitter look.

It takes time to process the heads. In fact, there is no need to process so many heads. They will definitely not take them back.

At the beginning, Yuan Wanli wanted to put the heads together as much as possible to ensure that there would be no problems in the subsequent inspection.

However, the garrison camp slaughtered a tribe a day, and there were thousands of heads every day. They really couldn't handle it, so they stopped this somewhat strange work.

Luo Chenhu, also known as Luo Baihu, looked at the pile of heads in front of him, with an unconcealable surprise in his eyes.

"If Luo Baihu wants to check other heads, I can take him there to check, but the other heads are distributed in seven Hu tribes, and it will take a little time to check!" Yuan Wanli said.

In fact, it is not difficult to confirm the record. The ruins of the seven tribes are there, and tens of thousands of corpses will not rot in a short time.

As long as you go and take a look, you will understand that the military exploits they reported are not false at all, and they may even be underreported.

"No need!" Luo Chenhu shook his head slightly.

With these heads, there is no need to continue to check.

Falsely reporting military exploits is actually nothing. Killing 300 enemies and reporting 500, killing 500 enemies and reporting 1,000, this is actually not a big deal, and even such an unspoken rule has been formed in major border towns.

With thousands of heads, reporting more than 10,000 beheadings is enough to explain to the higher-ups.

Moreover, he had just checked that these heads were all heads of adult men, not even women, children, and the elderly.

The most important thing was that he had already seen the difference between the soldiers in the garrison camp when he was in the garrison camp just now.

Songyuan River can wash away the fatigue and dirt on the soldiers, but it cannot wash away the murderous aura on them.

The strong murderous aura made him feel frightened.

The key is that this is not the murderous aura of one person, but all the soldiers have such a strong murderous aura.

It can be imagined that these soldiers are definitely killing gods on the battlefield.

At this time, Yang Zhengshan came over with Zhou Ren.

"Greetings, sir!"

"Secret Wuwei Zhenbei Division Captain Luo Chenhu greets Sir Yang!"

Luo Chenhu saw Yang Zhengshan and bowed with his fists.

Yang Zhengshan raised his eyebrows, and he turned out to be a member of the Secret Wuwei.

"Captain Luo, no need to be polite!"

He said with a slight smile.

Luo Chenhu raised his head and looked at Yang Zhengshan, but his heart trembled slightly.

He had also heard of Yang Zhengshan's name. When investigating the case of treason, although it was Wei Cen who had always been in contact with Yang Zhengshan, in fact, many people in Zhenbei Division were very familiar with Yang Zhengshan.

Because before Lu Hua called Yang Zhengshan, the Secret Guard had investigated Yang Zhengshan's identity and background, and when investigating the case, the Secret Guard also arranged a lot of people to cooperate in the investigation.

For example, the Black Cliff Village was surrounded and suppressed by Luo Chenhu.

Yang Zhengshan at this time was somewhat beyond Luo Chenhu's expectations. He originally thought that Yang Zhengshan would be full of murderous aura like those soldiers in the garrison camp, but in fact, Yang Zhengshan had no murderous aura at all.

His eyes were deep and clear, with a kind smile on his face, and even a little kind and gentle!

Kind and gentle!

Luo Chenhu felt that he was bewitched, and he actually felt that Yang Zhengshan had kind and gentle eyes.

How could a person who led the garrison camp to kill tens of thousands of enemies be kind and gentle?

There is only one explanation for this situation, that is, Yang Zhengshan can control his murderous aura freely!

"Does Captain Luo want to check other battlefields?" Yang Zhengshan asked with a faint smile.

Since he is a member of the Secret Guard, he doesn't have to worry. After all, he has helped the Secret Guard.

"No need, I have confirmed that your military exploits are not fake!" Luo Chenhu replied.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, without saying much, "In that case, let's go to eat first! I just woke up and I'm very hungry!"

He is really hungry!

He has slept from yesterday afternoon until now, and he hasn't had a drop of water. How can he not be hungry?

"Please, Lord Yang!" Luo Chenhu is of course okay!

Soon, the group returned to the camp, but a table of simple meals was placed on the table in a moment.

The meals were still mainly dried vegetable soup and stewed meat. Under these conditions, even if Yang Zhengshan wanted to eat something good, he couldn't eat it.

Luo Chenhu is not a delicate person. When the Secret Guards were performing their missions, they had suffered all kinds of hardships.

After the meal, Yang Zhengshan chatted with Luo Chenhu for a while. He wanted to ask about Wei Cen's situation, but the Secret Guard had many rules and their whereabouts were generally not disclosed to the outside world, so Yang Zhengshan gave up the idea and just asked about the situation in Chongshan Pass.

…

Just when Yang Zhengshan was having a meal, Wang Bin received a letter from Yang Zhengshan near Heiyun Mountain.

The sender was none other than Song Dashan.

Wang Bin led the reinforcement battalion and just wiped out a tribe. Now they were resting near Heiyun Mountain and cleaning up the battlefield.

Wang Bin was a little surprised to receive Yang Zhengshan's letter, but what surprised him more was Yang Zhengshan's record in the past few days.

He received supplies and letters from Jiacheng every day, including Yang Zhengshan's battle report.

The first time he saw Song Dashan, he couldn't help asking: "Did you really massacre seven tribes?"

"General, not seven, but eight!" Song Dashan said honestly.

"Eight!" Wang Bin was even more shocked.

He has only received seven battle reports, and the last one has not been delivered yet.

"Eight!"

In the tent, the military officers of the reinforcement camp looked at each other in bewilderment.

Among the military officers, Zhang Yuanwu, the garrison commander of Qihe City, was even more shocked.

Zhang Yuanwu was also a capable and ambitious man. He wanted to kill the enemy and make merit in this war, so since entering the north, he has been trying to find the traces of the Hu tribe.

Hard work pays off, his efforts were not in vain, and he really found a tribe.

It was just that he had to ask for help from his immediate superior Wang Bin due to the strength of his garrison battalion.

Although he could not get full credit after Wang Bin led the reinforcement battalion, he could at least get some credit.

In his opinion, this was already very good, and it was in line with the situation of the garrison battalion he led at the beginning.

However, now that he heard that the Anyuan City garrison battalion had eliminated eight Hu people tribes in a row, he even suspected that he had hallucinations.

Is there such a big gap?

Zhang Yuanwu was shocked and couldn't help but have such a question.

The several garrisons under Wang Bin knew that the garrison battalion under Yang Zhengshan was very strong. Well, it was stronger than them, but no matter how strong it was, there shouldn't be such a big gap.

The garrison battalion had only more than a thousand people. How could it wipe out eight Hu people tribes in just over ten days?

Even if these Hu people tribes were only small tribes of a few hundred people, Wang Bin thought it was impossible.
