Chapter 410 Thirty-five Years of Peace

Yang Zhengshan felt that it was not a bad thing to accept Yuhengxingtang.

In fact, he had already accepted more than 20 disciples sent by Hengdaomen before, and the disciples of Hengdaomen had been assigned to the Zhenbiao Five Battalions.

Now, in addition to the Five Army Battalions he brought from Tenglongwei, the Zhenbiao Five Battalions still had less than 10,000 remnants, which were the soldiers who defected in the previous battle of Chongshan Pass.

In other words, the Zhenbiao Five Battalions still lacked about 14,000 soldiers.

In addition to the Zhenbiao Five Battalions, the soldiers of the various reinforcement battalions were also short of a lot.

Yang Zhengshan had already planned to recruit soldiers for the Zhenbiao Five Battalions next year, so it was not a big deal to accept the disciples of Yuhengxingtang now.

"In that case, then you can bring all the people here."

"I have brought them here, and the three hundred disciples are all in the pass city, and they can join the army at any time!" Luo Jinsong said.

Yang Zhengshan couldn't help but smile. It seemed that Luo Jinsong had made up his mind to join the army, otherwise he would not be so determined to bring everyone to Chongshan Pass.

He brought all the people to Chongshan Pass, which meant that they had already abandoned the Yuhengxingtang Hall, and probably even the family property had been distributed.

If Yang Zhengshan did not accept them, they would most likely disband and go their separate ways.

Yang Zhengshan thought for a while and said, "In that case, you will report to the General's Mansion early tomorrow morning, and I will arrange official positions for you tomorrow!"

"Thank you, Lord!" Luo Jinsong said with joy.

With his cultivation, it is easy to get an official position, but he is a martial artist after all. Even if he has the ninth level of the acquired cultivation, Yang Zhengshan will not arrange an important official position for him.

Luo Jinsong actually doesn't care much about the grade of the official position. He just wants to surrender to Yang Zhengshan, not really want to be an official.

Of course, being an official is also good for him. With an official position, Xingyuemen will have more concerns when dealing with him.

The next morning, when Yang Zhengshan came to the General's Mansion, Luo Jinsong was already standing in the yard of the General's Mansion with 300 warriors.

"My Lord!" Lu Wenhua came over immediately when he saw Yang Zhengshan.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, then walked in front of the warriors and scanned them calmly.

His eyes were calm, but they made the warriors feel a strong power. As his eyes moved, the warriors lowered their heads one by one, restrained their previous casual mentality, and dared not look at him.

"Since you choose to join the army, you must abide by military regulations and laws in the future! If you violate military laws, no one can save you!"

"Do you understand?"

Yang Zhengshan said coldly.

"I understand!" A sparse voice sounded.

Yang Zhengshan's eyebrows were raised, and his aura suddenly became strong, like a thunderbolt pressing on everyone's heart.

"Your voice is weak, a group of rabble, speak louder!"

"Do you understand?"

He shouted again in a cold voice.

"I understand!"

This time the voice became much louder and more uniform.

Yang Zhengshan nodded indifferently, his eyes fell on Luo Jinsong who was standing in front of him.

"Luo Jinsong!"

"I'm here!" Luo Jinsong straightened his chest and raised his head, and took a step forward.

"From today on, you will serve as the sitting officer of this marquis's personal guard camp as the commander of the guard!" Yang Zhengshan said.

The personal guard camp is the elite of the elite, and is the strongest army under Yang Zhengshan. Although there are only two hundred people, each of them is a warrior above the fourth level of the acquired realm.

Any one of them is enough to be the general of the fifth battalion of the town.

Before, Yang Minghao had always led the personal guard camp, but now Yang Minghao has entered the town's rear camp as the sitting officer, so the battalion officer of the personal guard camp is vacant.

Originally, Yang Zhengshan wanted to promote someone from the personal guard camp, but now that Luo Jinsong has joined him, it is just right for him to be the sitting officer.

Putting Luo Jinsong in the personal guard camp, Yang Zhengshan also meant to keep an eye on him personally.

After all, Luo Jinsong had just come over, and Yang Zhengshan certainly didn't trust him much.

The sitting officer of the Royal Guards was not an important position, and he didn't have much real power. Even the dispatch within the Royal Guards had to obey Yang Zhengshan's orders.

Therefore, Luo Jinsong's sitting officer had a greater symbolic significance.

To put it nicely, sitting in this position meant that he was Yang Zhengshan's confidant, but to put it bluntly, it was just a decoration, with no real power at all.

Whether Luo Jinsong could integrate into the Royal Guards depended on whether he could get along with the soldiers of the Royal Guards.

The soldiers of the Royal Guards were all elite among the elite, and they were arrogant. Yang Minghao relied on being Yang Zhengshan's son to manage the Royal Guards very well, but if Luo Jinsong wanted to integrate into the Royal Guards, he had to put down his pride and get along with the soldiers completely.

However, this was a good position for Luo Jinsong.

It doesn't matter whether he has real power or not. What matters is that he joined Yang Zhengshan because he wanted to follow Yang Zhengshan. The position of the battalion commander of the personal guard camp is undoubtedly a position closer to Yang Zhengshan.

So Luo Jinsong happily clasped his fists and accepted the order: "I obey your order!"

"Yes!" Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly and looked at Li Chengguo, Qian Zhonghe and Ji Zhengfei.

"Li Chengguo, you should go to the Marquis' Mansion to retire. There are many guards in the Marquis' Mansion. You can be their coach!" Yang Zhengshan said softly.

Li Chengguo's age does not allow him to join the army. The generals in the army should retire to the second line at his age. At his age, he wants to join the army. It is really difficult for Yang Zhengshan to arrange an official position for him.

It is also a good choice to let him live in the Marquis' Mansion. The guards of the Marquis' Mansion are also a considerable force. Now the guards of the Marquis' Mansion have three commanders, namely Ding Qiu, Wu Zheng and Wu Zhan, and a coach, that is, Zhu Shanghe.

Although Li Chengguo is old, his cultivation is not low, and he has rich experience in the martial arts world. He is qualified to be the coach of these guards in the Marquis' Mansion.

"I obey your order. Thank you, Lord Marquis, for giving me a place to stay!" Li Chengguo had no objection. For him, any future is already vain, and only a place to stay is the most important.

If he was not afraid that Xingyuemen would cause trouble for him, he would even want to find a place to live in seclusion and be an old farmer in the countryside.

Yang Zhengshan's arrangement was just what he wanted.

"Qian Zhonghe, Ji Zhengfei, you two should go to the fifth battalion of Zhenbiao to be a joint camp officer first!" Yang Zhengshan said.

The assistant sitting officer is the deputy of the sitting officer. The positions of the five battalions of Zhenbiao include guerrilla general, sitting officer, assistant sitting officer, thousand commander, battalion commander, sentry commander, and team leader.

The guerrilla general is the chief officer, and the sitting officer is the deputy. The assistant sitting officer is not permanent and can serve as the assistant of the guerrilla general or the sitting officer.

"I obey your order!"

Qian Zhonghe and Ji Zhengfei naturally had no objection. Since they had decided to join Yang Zhengshan, they naturally had to obey Yang Zhengshan's arrangements.

And Yang Zhengshan's arrangements for them were reasonable and in line with their psychological expectations.

The main characters were arranged properly, and the rest of the people were easier to arrange.

Yang Zhengshan did not have to arrange them one by one, and directly divided them into seven groups, which were assigned to the five battalions of Zhenbiao and the six reinforcement battalions.

The number of people assigned to the five battalions of Zhenbiao was relatively large, almost one-third, and they were all relatively strong.

The number of people assigned to the six reinforcement battalions was relatively small, with only more than 30 people along the way, all of whom were ordinary warriors.

After the arrangement was completed, Yang Zhengshan asked the five battalions of the town to come and take the people away first. As for those assigned to the reinforcement battalion, they can go back first and report to the various generals' shogunate after the New Year.

"Where are your families?"

After everyone dispersed, Yang Zhengshan walked into the lobby of the general's mansion and asked Luo Jinsong.

These three hundred warriors are not all alone. Many of them are with their families. Warriors can be arranged in the town battalion and the reinforcement battalion, but their families must have a place to stay.

"Don't worry, my lord, their families will go with them to live in various places!" Luo Jinsong said.

"Do they want to buy their own houses?"

"Well, they have silver in their hands. I have distributed all the money of Yuhengxingtang." Luo Jinsong said.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, "You are a loyal person!"

Yang Zhengshan didn't know how much silver Yuhengxingtang had before, but it was estimated that there must be tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Three hundred people share tens of thousands of taels of silver, and each person can get at least a hundred taels.

A hundred taels of silver is not much, but it is enough to buy a small courtyard in the city and settle down.

Besides, these warriors must have money in their homes. It is impossible for them to be penniless and rely on the money given by Luo Jinsong to live.

"I also hope that these brothers can live a good life in the future!" Luo Jinsong said with a smile.

Yang Zhengshan nodded and stopped caring.

"You should go to the guard camp to get familiar with it first. The New Year is coming soon. There is nothing to do before the New Year. Everything will be discussed after the New Year!"

"Yes!" Luo Jinsong said.

After sending Luo Jinsong away, Yang Zhengshan went to the study to handle official business.

There are three days before the New Year. The things that should be handled have been handled almost. The things that have not been handled cannot be handled now. They have to wait until after the New Year.

He sat in the study for more than half an hour and then returned home.

…

A year of sorrow and joy has passed tonight, and the temples will be new tomorrow.

Time flies, and the seasons flow. Before we know it, it has come to the first day of the first lunar month in the thirty-fifth year of Chengping.

The mansion is decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, and the courtyard is decorated with plum blossoms in full bloom, with a faint fragrance. The Yang family members, dressed in brocade robes and thick fur coats, gathered in the main courtyard to greet each other, and laughter echoed throughout the courtyard.

Early in the morning, Yang Zhengshan sat in the main hall in a dark blue brocade robe and Yu Qingyi with pearls and jade on her head, waiting for his children and grandchildren to come and greet him.

Every year, the first day of the first lunar month is the most lively day for the Yang family. As the population of the Yang family increases, the lively atmosphere becomes more and more intense.

This year's Yang family is even more lively. After all, the Yang family is now a mansion, and the identities of all the people in the Yang family have changed.

In the main hall, each room greeted Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi one after another. When everyone finished greeting, it was already close to the time of Si.

Yang Zhengshan called Yang Mingzhi to the study.

Years ago, Yang Mingzhi had been in Fuzhou City and only came back on New Year's Eve. Yang Zhengshan hadn't had a good chat with Yang Mingzhi yet.
