Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

Tens of thousands of Hu bandits were divided into small groups, ranging from a few hundred to nearly a thousand, and entered Darong through the gaps between the fortress piers. They did not occupy land or attack the city, but only robbed supplies and massacred the people.

For a time, the prefectures and counties in the north of Liaozhou fell into war one after another. Massacres and panic spread to the south like a wave. A large number of people abandoned their homes to escape the war, but were intercepted and slaughtered by Hu bandits.

Five days passed in a flash.

Just as Yang Zhengshan was watching the young and strong men training in the back mountain, a bad news came to Yangjia Village.

Yang Zhengxiang hurried to the training ground, "Zhengshan, it's bad, the Hu people have entered the country!"

Yang Zhengshan's face changed slightly and asked, "What's the situation?"

"The county government just received news that Hu cavalry has entered Anning County." Yang Zhengxiang said breathlessly.

Yang Zhengshan narrowed his eyes.

The Hu people entered Anning County so quickly?

"Do you know what's happening at Chongshan Pass? Has it been breached?"

"No, it's said that Chongshan Pass is still in confrontation with the Hu army, but the county government is not very clear about the specific situation." Yang Zhengxiang said.

Yang Zhengshan took a deep breath.

"That's good, that's good!"

"As long as Chongshan Pass is not breached, it means that Darong has not been defeated!"

He didn't know much about the situation on the border, but he knew the importance of Chongshan Pass. Chongshan Pass is the most important fortress on Darong's northeastern border. As long as Chongshan Pass is not lost, Darong still has room to maneuver on the northeastern border.

However, the Hu cavalry has entered Anning County, which is not far from Yangjia Village.

"Chief, move the food to the mountain as soon as possible, as for the rest, let's see what happens!" Yang Zhengshan said.

"Okay, okay, I'll arrange it now!"

Yang Zhengxiang also calmed down, and after speaking, he hurried back to the village.

Yang Zhengshan pondered for a moment, turned around and walked to the top of the training ground, shouting: "Assemble!"

The next moment, a sharp whistle sounded, and the young men who were training immediately lined up and stepped in front of Yang Zhengshan.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the people standing straight, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

These young men in front of him already have the appearance of the army in his impression, neat and uniform, with their heads held high. Although they are wearing coarse linen clothes and holding the simplest long spears, they are quite imposing.

It is worth his painstaking teaching and using spiritual spring water to nourish their bodies during this period.

He glanced at everyone, without nonsense, and said directly: "The Hu cavalry has entered the territory of Anning County, and it should not be long before they will appear around our Yangjia Village."

"At present, we don't know the specific situation of the Hu cavalry. The only thing we can do is to prepare for the battle and ensure that our parents, wives and children retreat safely to the mountains at the critical moment."

"But before that, we must do a good job of reconnaissance and vigilance!"

"Yang Minghui!"

"Here!" Yang Minghui immediately stepped forward to respond.

"You are responsible for the defense of the village. You must patrol and guard day and night, and you must not slack off!" Yang Zhengshan ordered.

"Yes!"

"Yang Mingzhi!"

"Here!" Yang Mingzhi stepped forward, with his chest and head held high, his eyes sparkling.

During this period, Yang Mingzhi trained the hardest. In addition to the normal daily training, he would still practice martial arts for an hour after returning home.

Probably because he thought he was Yang Zhengshan's son and could not embarrass Yang Zhengshan.

Of course, Yang Zhengshan was also taking care of his son. People have closeness and distance, so his son naturally needs to be taken care of more.

Others can only drink diluted spiritual spring water, but Yang Mingzhi can drink normal spiritual spring water.

In more than a month, Yang Mingzhi not only became much stronger, but also grew a little taller.

"You are responsible for patrolling the back mountain to ensure that there is no enemy infiltration in the back mountain." Yang Zhengshan ordered.

The back mountain of Yangjia Village belongs to Changqing Mountain. Although it is only a few low hills, it covers a large area.

The most important thing is that the evacuation route of Yangjia Village is through the back mountain. Guarding the back mountain is to ensure the retreat of Yangjia Village.

"Yes!"

"Yang Mingwu!" Yang Zhengshan set his eyes on the tallest man in the team.

This guy is the strongest man in Yangjia Village, no one else.

Even Yang Zhengshan is a head shorter than him.

At the same time, he is also the fourth warrior in Yangjia Village, a new warrior after Yang Mingcheng.

Yang Mingwu becoming a warrior is something that Yang Zhengshan expected, but also something that Yang Zhengshan did not expect.

It is expected because Yang Mingwu's physique is much stronger than ordinary people, and he has been working hard to practice. In addition, Yang Zhengshan has used diluted spiritual spring water for him during this period, so it is not surprising that he can become a warrior.

It is unexpected because Yang Zhengshan did not expect Yang Mingwu to become a warrior so quickly. He thought Yang Mingzhi would be one step ahead, but he did not expect Yang Mingwu to become a warrior first.

"Here!" Yang Mingwu shouted loudly.

"You are responsible for guarding around the village. If you find the enemy, report immediately!" Yang Zhengshan ordered.

Yang Mingwu's eyes widened and he responded with high spirits: "Yes!"

Compared with others, he looked at Yang Zhengshan with more enthusiasm and admiration.

Although others also respected Yang Zhengshan, they were just respectful, but Yang Mingwu's attitude towards Yang Zhengshan was just like a die-hard fan meeting his idol.

That enthusiasm made Yang Zhengshan feel very uncomfortable.

The reason for this was that Yang Zhengshan made him a warrior.

Yes, in his heart, it was Yang Zhengshan who made him a warrior.

He practiced diligently for more than ten years but did not become a warrior. As a result, he became a warrior after training with Yang Zhengshan for more than half a month. This made him become a warrior. The opportunity to become a warrior fell on Yang Zhengshan.

In fact, Yang Zhengshan had some credit for his becoming a warrior, but the main credit was his accumulation of more than ten years.

Yang Zhengshan felt a little unworthy of this gratitude and enthusiasm.

After arranging everything, Yang Zhengshan was not idle. He turned back home and explained a few things. Then he and Yang Mingwu were on guard around Yangjia Village.

…

In the following days, the situation in Anning County became more and more chaotic.

A large number of people fleeing the war continued to pour in from the north, making Yangjia Village, which was already panic-stricken, even more panic-stricken.

At the same time, these refugees also brought a lot of news to Yang Zhengshan and his men.

The Hu cavalry killed and looted in the north, and the soldiers of Chongshan Town kept intercepting and blocking them.

The two sides fought one after another, and the battle situation was extremely tense.

The situation became more turbulent, and the people of Yangjia Village began to waver.

Some wanted to protect their homes, some wanted to hide in the mountains in advance, and some wanted to flee south with the refugees.

In panic, it was inevitable that there were many situations. Fortunately, there was the old and steady Yang Zhengxiang to suppress it, so there was no big chaos.

However, this also made Yang Zhengxiang physically and mentally exhausted. The whole person seemed to have aged ten years. The originally gray hair turned all silver-white, and there were many more wrinkles on his face.
