Chapter 77 I believe you will do it well
"I remember that the defense officer of Yinghebao is Zhang Zhongxiang!"
"I dismissed him!" Zhou Lan said nonchalantly.
Domineering!
Yang Zhengshan secretly gave Zhou Lan a thumbs up.
"I will take office in Jianningwei tomorrow. I will send you the official uniform and official seal in two or three days, and you can take office in Yinghebao!"
"By the way, lend me a few of those young men under your command!"
Zhou Lan said.
Yang Zhengshan blinked and borrowed young men!
General, young men are not allowed to be borrowed!
"What does the general want them to do?"
Zhou Lan noticed the weirdness in his eyes and said unhappily: "What else can I do? Train the soldiers!"
"They are all soldiers trained by you. They should have learned some skills from you! I want to use them to train the soldiers of Jianningwei!"
She originally valued Yang Zhengshan because Yang Zhengshan could train soldiers.
And Yang Zhengshan did not disappoint her. It took only two months to train a group of refugees into a brave and hard-working elite.
In fact, she wanted Yang Zhengshan to train the soldiers of Jianning Guard, but this was unrealistic.
Jianning Guard was not the left camp of Zhenbiao. The soldiers of Jianning Guard were distributed in various garrisons, shouldering the responsibilities of guarding the garrisons and guarding, and could not be concentrated in one place for training.
Since Yang Zhengshan was to serve as the defense officer of Yinghe Fort, he naturally had to train the soldiers of Yinghe Fort, Sanshan Fort and Xiangyuan Fort, so she could only borrow people from Yang Zhengshan to train the soldiers of other garrisons.
"Their official positions!" Yang Zhengshan wanted to fight for Yang Mingwu and Yang Mingzhi.
"You can arrange the official positions of Yinghe Fort yourself. I just borrowed people, not that I won't return them to you!" Zhou Lan said.
She has decided to give Yang Zhengshan full authority over Yinghebao, Sanshanbao, Xiangyuanbao and Linguanbao. As for other positions, she also has her own people and needs to arrange them. Naturally, Yang Zhengshan cannot occupy too many official positions.
"Okay, I will arrange a few people to go with the general later!"
Yang Zhengshan is naturally satisfied with Zhou Lan's arrangement.
Yinghebao has many official positions, including two deputy thousand households, two pacifications, and ten hundred households, which are enough to arrange Yang Mingwu and others.
As for the original officials of Yinghebao, it depends on whether they know what is good for them. If they know what is good for them, they will be kept. If they don't know what is good for them, they will all be thrown to Zhou Lan.
He believes that Zhou Lan will be willing to deal with a batch of waste.
No, Zhou Lan should have dealt with a batch of waste, otherwise he would not be able to sit as the defense officer of Yinghebao.
Then, Yang Zhengshan thought about who should follow Zhou Lan to help.
You can choose between Yang Mingzhi and Yang Mingwu.
He thought about it and decided to let Yang Mingzhi go. It was not because he cared about his son, but because Yang Mingwu was too straightforward and was not suitable to be with Zhou Lan.
In contrast, Yang Mingzhi was smart enough, and if he really encountered trouble, he would not suffer too much.
For the others, let's choose the five older ones.
It is said that a young man with no hair on his face will not be able to do things well. To be an instructor, it is naturally better to look mature.
After sending Zhou Lan away, a burst of joyful cheers immediately rang out in the government office.
"Dad, you got promoted!"
"Haha, your Excellency is so powerful!"
"Congratulations, your Excellency, congratulations, your Excellency!"
In the courtyard of the government office, Yang Minghao, Yang Mingwu, Yang Chengze, Yang Chengxu, Lao Li and others were all beaming with joy and high spirits.
When Yang Zhengshan was promoted, they would naturally rise with the tide.
Especially the children of the Yang family, they followed Yang Zhengshan to Chongshan Pass, didn't they just want to make a name for themselves?
Let alone them, even Yang Zhengshan couldn't help but feel a little eager.
He got promoted!
He was a fifth-rank rank 1,000-householder.
Although it was not a one-step promotion, it was also a step up.
Before, he was only a trial 100-householder, and served as a deputy commander in the left camp of the town. At most, he was a small follower, but now, he was a big follower, or a small leader.
After the joy, Yang Zhengshan quickly calmed down and said, "Chengze, after I take office in Yinghe Fort, you will serve as the garrison officer of Linguan Fort. You should get in touch with the affairs of Linguan Fort in the next few days to avoid being in a hurry!"
Yang Chengze was stunned and said uncertainly, "Sir, can I do it?"
He was just a small flag with ten soldiers under him before. Now Yang Zhengshan asked him to serve as the garrison officer, and he was somewhat unconfident.
"I believe you will do a good job!" Yang Zhengshan said with a smile.
Yang Chengze is only sixteen years old this year, just a young man, but Yang Zhengshan thinks he can be a good garrison officer.
Because Yang Chengze is mature at a young age, perhaps it is because Yang Zhengxiang had too many expectations for him in the past, after all, he is Yang Zhengxiang's eldest grandson.
In the past, Yang Zhengxiang felt that his son was useless, so he placed all his hopes on his grandson.
Expectations and pressure coexist, which makes Yang Chengze's character much more stable than his peers.
"Sir, I will definitely do it well!"
Encouraged by Yang Zhengshan, Yang Chengze couldn't help but said with emotion.
Yang Zhengshan patted his shoulder and said to Lao Li: "You stay in Linguanbao to help Chengze first, and go to Yinghebao after a while!"
Lao Li is not a soldier in Linguanbao, but he will still take Lao Li with him because he thinks Lao Li is very suitable to be a housekeeper.
With Lao Li around, he can worry a lot less.
"Yes, sir!" Lao Li smiled with teeth showing.
Yang Zhengshan looked at Yang Mingwu again, "Mingwu will be the deputy commander of Yinghe Fort, Mingzhi will be the governor of Yinghe Fort, as for the others, we will make arrangements after we get to Yinghe Fort."
A deputy captain and a pacification officer, these two positions he must hold in his own hands.
As for why Yang Mingwu was appointed as a deputy captain, it was because Yang Mingwu was stronger than Yang Mingzhi.
In addition, he did not want to over-promote Yang Mingzhi and let Yang Mingwu put pressure on him. He also wanted to put some pressure on Yang Mingzhi, so that Yang Mingzhi would not think that he could live a carefree life with his father around.
After the affairs of Linguan Fort were properly arranged, Yang Zhengshan's mind also drifted to Yinghe Fort.
Yinghe Fort was different from Linguan Fort. Linguan Fort was a rebuilt garrison, not actually a complete garrison.
The border defense line of Chongshan Town was a beacon every five miles, a tower every ten miles, a fort every thirty miles, and a city every hundred miles. There were several fire towers and beacons under each garrison.
Strictly speaking, Yang Zhengshan, a thousand-household commander, should have ten hundred-household commanders under his command, but in fact, there are many abandoned garrisons in Chongshan Town, and there are only three hundred-household commanders under the jurisdiction of Yinghe Fort, with a total of no more than 500 soldiers.
And the garrison of thirty miles does not mean that there is a garrison every thirty miles. The garrisons are not connected in a straight line, but are built according to the degree of danger in each place.
For example, Sanshan Fort is located southwest of Yinghe Fort, less than twenty miles away from Yinghe Fort, while Xiangyuan Fort is located southeast of Yinghe Fort, farther away from Yinghe Fort.
There are also beacons and fire towers between garrisons, and the number of beacons and fire towers under the jurisdiction of each garrison is also different, about three to five.
And each beacon and fire tower will have five to ten guards, who are responsible for farming and guarding.
And both the beacon and the fire tower have their families living.
Yang Zhengshan served as the defense officer of Yinghe Fort, and actually governed the garrison towers of more than thirty miles around Yinghe Fort.
There are more than 400 soldiers and more than 400 military households under his command, with a total population of about 2,000 to 3,000 people.
If he can recruit all the soldiers in the garrison, the number of soldiers can reach more than 1,100 and the population can reach more than 5,000.
This also means that he has to feed these people, let them live a good life, and make them be of one mind with him.
Yang Zhengshan has some idea of how the military households in the garrison live.
It is far worse than that of farmers.
So after he takes office, the first thing he has to do is to help the poor.
Fortunately, he has some food in his hands now, so he doesn't have to worry about food and grass in the short term.
The most urgent task is the problem of drought.
I don't know if those garrisons have dug wells. If not, it will be troublesome.
Thinking of this, Yang Zhengshan couldn't help but want to go to Yinghebao to take office as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, his official seal and official robes have not been delivered yet, so he can't take office at all.
