Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

The night ends and the day dawns.

That night, the entire Yangjia Village was immersed in grief.

Even the atmosphere in Yang Zhengshan's home seemed particularly solemn.

Although everyone in the Yang family was fine in this battle, there were so many casualties in the village, and everyone was still in a very uncomfortable mood.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning.

Yang Mingzhi went to replace Yang Minghui for inspection early in the morning.

Although they had just experienced a battle, the guard duty of Yangjia Village had not been slackened, and the due vigilance and inspections were still indispensable.

Fortunately, Yang Zhengshan no longer has to worry about these matters personally. Yang Mingcheng, Yang Mingzhi and Yang Mingwu will discuss and deal with these matters.

After breakfast, just when Yang Zhengshan was about to go see the wounded, Yang Mingzhi came back in a hurry.

"Dad, the general wanted to see you yesterday!"

"What's the matter with him?" Yang Zhengshan asked with a frown.

Last night, he did not let the frontier soldiers into the village, but only asked people to send them some hot water and food.

His attitude towards the border troops was better than that of the Hu people, but he was not unprepared.

Don't think that Da Rong's army is one of your own. In fact, many people died under the butcher's knife of Da Rong's own army. Some soldiers and bandits are more terrifying than bandits and Huqi.

"I don't know, he is waiting behind the village!" Yang Mingzhi said.

Yang Zhengshan thought for a while and walked towards the back of the village.

When he arrived at the village, he saw Zhou Lan directing a dozen soldiers to carry a lot of things.

"The common people pay homage to the general!" Yang Zhengshan bowed and said.

"The strong man saved my life, no need to be polite!" Zhou Lan returned the salute and said.

Yang Zhengshan raised his head and looked at Zhou Lan.

But when he saw it, he was stunned.

Female!

Although the two fought side by side yesterday, he really didn't notice that the general was a woman.

It's not his fault. Yesterday, Zhou Lan was in a mess and her face was so gray that it was impossible to tell her true appearance. In addition, her voice was hoarse and sounded similar to a man's voice, so Yang Zhengshan naturally thought that this is a man.

Seeing that Yang Zhengshan was stunned, Zhou Lan smiled and said, "You don't know my identity yet, might you? I am Zhou Lan, the guerrilla from Zuoying, Zhenbiao, Chongshan Town!"

Yang Zhengshan was stunned again.

Dayong's military system is divided into two types, the guard system and the recruitment system.

The garrison system refers to the establishment of garrison stations from Kyoto to prefectures and counties, with external control under the Dusi and internal control under the Five Military Governor's Office.

The recruitment system is to spend money to recruit soldiers and recruit soldiers according to strict standards. Not only are the soldiers paid, but they are also exempted from corvee taxes.

The garrison system is to integrate soldiers with farmers and guard villages, while the recruitment system is to cultivate professional soldiers.

The border army has both a guard system and a recruiting system.

The forts on the border defense line all belong to the garrison, that is, they farm while guarding the forts.

The Zhenbiao Battalion recruits soldiers. There are five Zhenbiao Battalions in Chongshan Town. Each battalion has between 3,000 and 5,000 people, all of whom are elite.

Back then, he originally joined the border army through recruitment, and relied on his skills as a warrior to become a soldier in the Zhenbiaoqian camp of Chongshan Town.

Therefore, Yang Zhengshan knows Chongshan Town Zhenbiao Camp fairly well.

The woman in front of me is actually a guerrilla general from Zhenbiao Zuoying!

Guerrilla generals are usually appointed by the commander-in-chief of the capital, which means that this person is actually a third-grade military attache.

Genuine third grade!

A strange color flashed in Yang Zhengshan's eyes.

This does not comply with the rules of the town standard camp!

The Zhenbiao Camp implements a recruitment system, and the strongest are always given priority.

To put it simply, if you want to hold an important position, you must have the corresponding cultivation and strength.

The guerrilla general is the commander of a battalion. Based on his original memory, he should have at least an acquired level of cultivation above the fifth level.

But the woman in front of me should only have the second or third level of cultivation.

When this happened, Yang Zhengshan could only think of two reasons. First, the current Zhenbiao Camp was somewhat different from the Zhenbiao Camp twenty years ago, so it did not comply with the rules in the original memory. The second is that this woman has an extraordinary identity and background and can break some of the rules of the border army.

Or maybe it's both reasons.

But these have nothing to do with Yang Zhengshan.

Yang Zhengshan just thought about it and bowed again: "Meet General Zhou!"

"Your Excellency has helped me save my life. There is no need to be polite. If you don't mind, you can call me by my name, Brother Yang!" Zhou Lan said.

When she called Brother Yang, Yang Zhengshan couldn't help but tremble.

What does it mean?

Why do you call me brother?

Although he helped Zhou Lan a lot, he wouldn't be so close to her.

This is a feudal society, and the defense between men and women is like a shackle that locks everyone away. Let alone calling them eldest brother, strangers must be careful even when they say a word.

This is true in villages, not to mention among those aristocratic families, the rigid rules are even more outrageous.

As for women joining the army, it’s not impossible.

Martial arts are popular, and the army needs strong warriors, and there are many martial arts masters among women, so it is inevitable that there will be some strange women in the army.

These strange women may be more relaxed about those rigid rules, but some rules still need to be observed.

Calling him "big brother" when he comes up is somewhat out of order.

However, Yang Zhengshan's excitement was not because Zhou Lan broke the rules. As a time traveler, how could he care about those messy rules.

The reason why he was so excited was because Zhou Lan's big brother call was too gentle.

That's right, it's gentle.

The voice seemed to have hooks that pierced Yang Zhengshan's heart.

Yesterday, the woman's words were as unpleasant as tearing rags, but today, the call of "big brother" made Yang Zhengshan's heart numb.

Meow!

This woman is sick!

He didn't think the voice was nice, but felt uncomfortable, with goose bumps all over his body.

The call of "big brother" made Yang Zhengshan take a step back involuntarily and look at Zhou Lan with doubt.

Only then did he realize that Zhou Lan seemed to be very good-looking, with an oval face, big eyes, double eyelids, delicate features, but a little rough skin.

She should be around 30 years old, and her figure, uh, can't be seen. She was wearing a cotton armor that wrapped her body tightly, and it was hard to tell the depth.

Ugh!

Is the line of sight a little crooked?

Yang Zhengshan quickly retracted his gaze and looked at Zhou Lan with a smile, "General Zhou, just call me by my name!"

He really couldn't stand being called big brother.

The goose bumps haven't gone away yet.

Zhou Lan seemed to think that she called him "brother" a little too tactfully, and a blush appeared on her face.

"Brother Zhengshan!"

Embarrassed, she deliberately called him again in a hoarse voice.

"Uh uh, it's much more comfortable this way!" Yang Zhengshan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

It's so embarrassing!

It's not like I haven't seen women before.

But I really can't stand your calling me "brother".

You're not calling me, you're seducing me!

Zhou Lan's face turned even redder.

"Ahem." She coughed lightly to ease the embarrassment in her heart, then pointed to a pile of things behind her and said, "This is the spoils of war. The credit belongs to us, and the spoils belong to you!"

Oh, I'm so fake, I'm so embarrassed!

It's all because of that bastard Niu Duzi, who insisted on making me pretend to be weak, saying that being weak can make people feel close.

I've said it before, I'm not a weak person!

Zhou Lan pointed at the spoils on the hillside and complained in her heart.

Yang Zhengshan didn't know what she was complaining about. He looked up the hillside and saw the soldiers carrying a lot of things like ants moving house.

There were leather armor, cotton clothes, weapons, bows and arrows, and more than a dozen dead horses. There were all kinds of things piled up in a large area.
