Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

"At present, we have to do three things. The first is to select young and strong people for training. The second is to strengthen the defense of the village. The third is to find a temporary place to live in Changqing Mountain!" Yang Zhengshan continued.

Yang Zhengxiang lowered his head and pondered for a moment, "You will do the training of young and strong people, and leave the rest to me!"

He probably guessed Yang Zhengshan's intention. Yang Zhengshan wanted to train young and strong people not only to protect Yangjia Village, but also to gain merit for himself.

This is Yang Zhengshan's selfishness, but he did not oppose Yang Zhengshan's selfishness, and even welcomed it.

Yang Zhengshan is a member of the Yang family. If Yang Zhengshan really fights for a smooth road, it will be a good thing for the Yang family.

Perhaps this smooth road needs a lot of blood and flesh to pave, he is still willing to support Yang Zhengshan.

Warriors are different from scholars. Scholars can pass the exams and become rich and noble once they are on the list, while warriors can only step on blood and corpses to achieve glory.

With the support of Yang Zhengxiang, the selection of young men in Yangjia Village went smoothly.

There are a total of 78 households in Yangjia Village. Each household here is not a family of three or four people. Almost every household has more than a dozen people.

The total population of the entire Yangjia Village should be around 1,000, and there are about 200 to 300 young men aged 15 to 35, but Yang Zhengshan only selected more than 100 people.

He selected those who were around 20 years old and dared to fight and kill. As for those who were sneaky, cowardly and incompetent, he naturally would not want them.

…

In the main hall of the Yang family, the three brothers Yang Mingcheng stood upright in front of Yang Zhengshan.

"Dad, other families have people participating, should we also train together!" Yang Mingcheng looked at Yang Zhengshan with shining eyes.

Yang Zhengshan's eyes swept between the three brothers, and the three brothers were all full of expectations and excitement.

Although they have always been taught by Yang Zhengshan, this training is different from the previous teachings. The previous teachings were just practicing martial arts and practicing martial arts, while this training is military training.

Men love to be armed, especially those who practice martial arts.

"You all have to participate in the training, but boss, you have to focus on the family!" Yang Zhengshan said.

"Ah!" Yang Mingcheng was stunned, "Dad, I am a warrior, shouldn't I follow you to train well?"

Yang Zhengshan shook his head slightly and said, "You should also understand the purpose of training young and strong men. It is to resist the Hu tribe. Once we really encounter the Hu tribe, it will be a life-and-death battle. At that time, I will definitely have no time to take care of the family, and this family needs you to protect it!"

Once the war starts, anything can happen. Yang Zhengshan cannot pull all the young and strong men of the Yang family to the battlefield. He must leave one person to guard the house.

The remaining women and children need someone to rely on, and Yang Mingcheng, the eldest son, is undoubtedly the most suitable person.

Training must be participated in, but Yang Mingcheng cannot follow him to the battlefield.

"This~~" Yang Mingcheng hesitated. He turned his head to look at his wife and son standing outside the door, and finally nodded dejectedly, "Son understands!"

Yang Zhengshan looked at Yang Mingzhi and Yang Minghao again and said, "Second brother, I will arrange a position for you to manage the team. It depends on you whether you can take it up!"

A team of more than 100 people naturally has a clear organization. The organization of the Darong Border Army is five people in a group, two groups in a squad, three squads in a team, and three teams in a sentry.

Yang Zhengshan divided more than 100 young men into three teams according to this organization, and set up three management teams, namely Yang Mingzhi, Yang Zhengxiang's eldest son Yang Minghui, and Yang Mingwu, who is tall and strong and brave by nature.

Yang Minghui needs no introduction. He is the eldest son of Yang Zhengxiang. Whatever the Yang family wants to do, they can't do without Yang Zhengxiang's support, and naturally they have to take care of Yang Zhengxiang's children and grandchildren.

As for Yang Mingwu, he was specially selected by Yang Zhengshan. The reason for choosing him is very simple, just because he is tall enough and strong enough.

That body size is the same as that of Big Bear and Little Bear. Just standing there can scare people.

Before Yang Mingcheng became a warrior, he should be the most likely person in Yangjia Village to become a warrior.

"Yes, Dad!" Yang Mingzhi was so excited that he almost jumped up when he heard that he could be a team leader.

"Dad, what about me? I don't want to be a team leader. I can be a squad leader!" Yang Minghao couldn't help but say.

Yang Zhengshan glanced at him and said, "You follow me and be a personal soldier."

"Ah, a squad leader is not okay, a sergeant is also okay. I don't pick!" Yang Minghao said unsatisfiedly.

Yang Zhengshan narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "You kid, follow me honestly. If you dare to mess around, you will be punished by the family law!"

Among the three brothers, this kid is the most jumpy. He does whatever he wants. He is either thinking about getting a wife or making trouble all day long.

"Me!" Yang Minghao wanted to fight for it, but feeling the coldness in Yang Zhengshan's eyes, he shrank his neck and dared not say another word.

The next morning, in the wasteland on the back mountain of Yangjia Village.

More than a hundred young men gathered with long spears, and there were a large number of villagers watching around.

Although the villagers were very uneasy about the upcoming border war, Yang Zhengshan's training of young men still made them want to come and see the excitement.

They were very curious about how Yang Zhengshan would train his boy.

Even Yang Zhengxiang and several elders came to watch.

Yang Zhengshan stood above, looking down at the messy crowd, his face solemn.

The young men in Yangjia Village all practiced martial arts and could fight, but being able to fight did not mean that they were qualified soldiers.

The army emphasizes discipline, and military orders are as strict as mountains. To put it bluntly, these people in front of them are just a mob.

Even if they have practiced martial arts, they cannot hide the fact that they are farmers.

As for how to train the army, Yang Zhengshan still felt a little confident.

The original person has been in the army for a year, and he has also participated in several military trainings, so he has some experience.

"Shut up!"

Listening to the noisy words, Yang Zhengshan shouted coldly.

The chilling voice spread, causing everyone to tremble and become silent.

"From now on, no one is allowed to speak without my order! If you want to speak, raise your hand and report!"

"Understand?"

Yang Zhengshan asked loudly.

"Understood!" A sparse voice sounded.

"Louder, got it?"

"clear!"

"Understand?"

"clear!"

The powerful voices gathered together and spread.

Yang Zhengshan nodded with satisfaction. Although they were just a group of rabble, the advantage was that these people could listen to him.

It was not in vain that he had been walking around Yangjiacun during this period of time, accumulating his own prestige.

"You should all know about the war at the border, so I won't say more. Now I want to talk about why you are being trained!"

Yang Zhengshan put his hands behind his back, stood tall and straight, and said loudly and solemnly: "Training you is not for me, nor for yourself, but for your parents, wives and children."

"Your duty is to protect, protect this home of Yangjia Village, protect the parents, wives and children in this home, and protect this pure land that may be invaded by evil people!"

"Look back at them!" Yang Zhengshan raised his hand and pointed at the onlookers and said: "If one day, the Hu people come over to kill them, invade them, and take away their money and food, you should know what to do. ?”

"Think about Jiangjia Village, think about Xiaolin Village, think about those wailing under the thick smoke, ready-made examples are right in front of you!"

"And those are just mountain bandits. The Hu people are more ferocious and terrifying than the bandits. The Hu people will not only burn, kill, and loot, but they will also kidnap your wives, daughters, and sisters, humiliate them, and take your brothers, children, and grandchildren as slaves."

Listening to Yang Zhengshan's words, all the young men below showed angry expressions, while the surrounding villagers all looked fearful and unwilling.

They have heard about what happened to Jiangjia Village and what happened to Xiaolin Village.

No one wants to see Yangjiacun become like that.
