Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

As Zhao Yuan said, the Hu army was completely defeated at this time.

Just like when the Chongshan Town army was defeated in Fushan City, the defeat was like a mountain. Once the rout started, it was comprehensive.

Even Hu Qi, who was always known for his fierceness, could only flee in the face of a chaotic defeat.

However, compared with the original Chongshan Town army, the defeat of the Hu army was relatively organized and orderly.

Yang Zhengshan only had a hundred cavalry, so it was naturally impossible for him to rush into the center of the battlefield and confront the enemy head-on. They wandered around the periphery of the Hu's defeated army, chasing down those who fell behind.

Although this would not accomplish much, mosquito legs were also meat, and even if they were just a few heads, it was still worth a day's work.

What's more, what they got was not a few heads, but hundreds.

When it was daylight, the one hundred cavalrymen behind Yang Zhengshan each had at least three heads hanging on their horses.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the high-spirited soldiers, and everyone around his eyes smiled a little deeper.

He liked this kind of battle the most, just like a hunter rounding up his prey. It was easy and safe. After hunting for more than an hour, not one of them died.

Of course, this is also the reason why they only wander around the periphery.

Looking at the disappearing troops in the north, Yang Zhengshan shook his head with some regret, "What a pity!"

"What's a pity?" Zhao Yuan smiled with his teeth exposed.

He cut off ten heads with his own hands, and his men also gained a lot. Sixty percent of the more than a hundred cavalry behind them were his, so they had at least achieved level 200 this time.

He really didn't expect that they were just here to confirm their military exploits, that they could actually achieve such great achievements.

With such military exploits, there is no problem for him to be promoted to a thousand households.

"It's a pity that we have too few troops!" Yang Zhengshan laughed.

Zhao Yuan didn't feel any regret, he was very satisfied with such a gain.

"It's almost over, let's go back!"

Yang Zhengshan said again.

They are not the protagonists in this battle, the protagonist is the Zhenbiao Fifth Battalion at Chongshan Pass.

Speaking of which, Yang Zhengshan was very curious about how Liang Chu did it.

The Fifth Zhenbiao Battalion was in Chongshan Pass. How did he let the Fifth Zhenbiao Battalion out of the city without telling the Hu camp?

This question did not bother Yang Zhengshan for a long time, because the specific process of the battle spread in Guancheng the next day.

Zhao Yuan was also curious, so he made a special trip to Guancheng. Although he did not enter the city due to the restrictions in Guancheng, he got to know the matter after he talked to the scouts patrolling outside.

Zhao Yuan knew it, and Yang Zhengshan naturally knew it too.

After listening to Zhao Yuan's story, Yang Zhengshan couldn't help but admire: "Master Hou is really a courageous and well-planned man!"

It turned out that Liang Chu's plan was very simple. He had already received the news that the Hu tribe was about to invade before the Hu tribe's army arrived in Guancheng.

So he transferred all Zhenbiao's fifth battalion away from Guancheng in advance.

That's right, Liang Chu has been planning an empty city in Chongshan Pass these days.

There are less than 10,000 defenders in Chongshan Pass, and the real elites have always been hidden in the mountains and forests to the east.

"I have long heard that our Marquis Chang Ping is a god in military skills, and he is well-known today!" Zhao Yuan was also full of shock.

The Empty City Strategy is not that easy to sing.

If the Hu tribe really attacks the city, the empty city plan will inevitably be exposed.

What Yang Zhengshan admired most about Liang Chu was not that he dared to use the empty city strategy, but that he actually waited for more than half a month. Wait until the Hu camp completely relaxes its vigilance, and wait until the Hu camp believes that they will not come out to fight.

Half a month!

Every day should be extremely painful, but Liang Chu could still sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.

Yang Zhengshan really admires such courage and character.

If it were him, he might not be as patient as Liang Chu.

"Sure enough, you can't underestimate the people of the world!"

Yang Zhengshan thought secretly in his heart.

As a time traveler, he has a natural sense of superiority and treats everyone as if he were an aborigine.

Especially since he also owns the spiritual spring space, this makes him even more arrogant that I will be the best in the world sooner or later.

Fortunately, his nature was quite down-to-earth and he did not let his superiority and arrogance turn into arrogance and ignorance.

Watching Liang Chu's operations in person made his mind become calmer and more condensed.

The more a person experiences, the more insights he will gain and his character will become calmer.

Although Yang Zhengshan is a time traveler, he was just a young man under thirty years old in his previous life. In terms of experience, most of it came from the bombardment of network traffic, but there were very few true personal experiences of suffering, life and death.

Compared with people in this world, he may be a little advanced in knowledge and thinking, but when it comes to intelligence and character, he may be far inferior to some amazing and talented people.

This is not to belittle oneself, but to seek truth from facts.

Times create heroes. Only by truly experiencing the times and witnessing the changes in the times can we have the foundation to become a hero.

How can you climb to the top if you haven’t walked there or seen it with your own eyes?

Zhao Yuan stayed at Linguan Fort for another two days before leaving. After he left, Yang Zhengshan dispersed all the cavalry in the fort. After confirming that the Hu army was completely defeated, he returned to Yinghe Fort. .

This time while guarding Linguan Fort, his soldiers suffered heavy casualties, which brought sadness to all the forts under the jurisdiction of the Defense Office.

But the dead have passed away, and the living will continue to live on.

On the third day of March, a grand funeral was held in Yinghe Fort.

Yang Zhengshan led all the officials in the government office to personally carry the coffins and bury the fallen soldiers.

The cemetery of Yinghebao is on the hillside to the west of Tunbao. It is backed by green mountains and faces thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in Darong. It is a geomantic treasure.

It's just that this cemetery is a bit huge, spreading from one side of the mountain to the other side of the mountain.

Looking at the countless graves, Yang Zhengshan felt heavy in his heart.

It is said that one general's achievements are worth thousands of bones, but how many soldiers were buried in this small fort?

The funeral ended in mourning, and Yinghe Fort also took on new life in sorrow.

The main force of the Hu tribe was defeated, and the fifth battalion of Zhenbiao in Chongshan Pass was free to clean up the Hu cavalry who entered the country.

In just half a month, good news came one after another in Guancheng. Hu Qi who entered the country were either surrounded or expelled.

After more than a year of war, the people of Chongshan Town finally regained their previous peace.

The Hu clan has been severely injured in this battle. Although they still retain some strength, they will not be able to invade the Darong border for at least three years.

The war ended and the busy spring plowing began.

The common people and military households who were still immersed in the grief of losing their loved ones had to pick up farm tools and start farming.

And Yang Zhengshan was also busy. While organizing spring plowing for military households, he was planning to recruit men from military households to join the army again.

This is something that cannot be helped. The missing soldiers must be supplemented, and the supplemented soldiers must be trained.

They must continue to guard the borders of Da Rong and make sacrifices for the safety of the people of Da Rong.

Time passed day by day, and spring plowing was over before I knew it.

Chongshan Town has also ushered in the best season. Spring is warm, flowers are blooming, everything is revived, and green mountains and green waters cover the desolate land.

On this day, Yang Zhengshan finished handling the government affairs and came to the horse farm.

The horse farm is the most important industry of his Yang family. Whether the Yang family will become rich in the future depends entirely on the horse farm.

"The little one pays homage to the adults, the eldest father, and the Fourth Master Jiang!"

As soon as they entered the racecourse, Ma San greeted them.

The master is naturally talking about Yang Zhengshan, the uncle is referring to Yang Mingcheng, and Fourth Master Jiang is referring to Jiang He.

That's right, Jiang He has also been upgraded to a master!

After the war, Jiang He assisted Yang Mingcheng in managing the Yang family's property. He had been to the horse farm many times before, and Ma San was already familiar with him.

"Let's go, take me to see the newborn foal!" Yang Zhengshan walked directly towards the stable.

Spring is coming, and Ma San no longer keeps the horses in the stables. The guys at the horse farm will take the horses out for walks.

The horses in the stable at this time were all foals, and there was one that was just born two days ago.

When buying horses last year, Yang Mingcheng bought a pregnant mare on Ma San's suggestion.

Currently, there are ten mares in the horse farm, six three-year-old foals, eight two-year-old foals, and ten inferior horses that have just reached adulthood.

Walking into the stable, Yang Zhengshan came to the newborn foal and asked, "How is it doing?"

The foal followed the mare. When he saw Yang Zhengshan entering the horse pen, he leaned toward the mare uneasily.

"It's very healthy. If nothing goes wrong, it can become an excellent war horse!" Ma San looked at the foal with very gentle eyes, just like an old mother looking at her child.

As a horse herder, Ma San really likes horses.

He takes great care of his horses, even more than he takes care of his own children.

Yang Zhengshan looked sideways at the little pony and saw that it was indeed very energetic, so he felt relieved.

This was the first colt born in the horse farm. He naturally hoped that the colt would grow up healthily and then give him money in exchange.

Compared to Ma San, Yang Zhengshan's attitude towards Ma was a bit unkind.

He raises horses just to make money. Except for Hongyun, he doesn't have much affection for other horses.

Then Yang Zhengshan looked at the other foals and walked around the racecourse.

Of course, he wasn't just wandering around in boredom. He took the opportunity to spill a lot of spiritual spring water.

He even sprinkled some spiritual spring water on the grass of the racecourse. The green grass will grow extraordinarily lush after absorbing the spiritual spring water, and it will also have some of the effects of the spiritual spring water.

After the horse eats the grass, it will also be nourished by the spiritual spring water.

However, the racecourse is not small, and Yang Zhengshan only sprinkled two or three bowls of spiritual spring water.

"Bring these three ponies back to me!"

Before leaving, Yang Zhengshan also took away three three-year-old foals.

This was what he prepared for Yang Yunxue, Wang Yunqiao and Lin Zhan.

This year Yang Yunxue is twelve years old, Wang Yunqiao and Lin Zhan are also eleven years old, and they can learn riding skills.

"You can take the time to teach Yunxue and the others how to ride in the future!"

On the way back, Yang Zhengshan said to Yang Mingcheng.

"Dad, don't worry, I will teach them well!" Yang Mingcheng said honestly.

Yang Zhengshan nodded and said to Jiang He: "Yunyan also wants to learn to ride a horse. You will teach her when the time comes!"

Jiang He just learned the riding skills and was taught by Yang Mingcheng.

"Okay, dad!" Jiang He said shyly.

Although the young man is married and has children, he is still a shy young man.

Especially when facing Yang Zhengshan, he was a bit too honest.
