Chapter 223: Stupid Song Dashan

After a serious meeting, Yang Zhengshan did not stay in Jiacheng and immediately rushed back to Anyuan City.

After returning to Anyuan City, Yang Zhengshan began to prepare for the expedition.

In fact, there is nothing left to prepare. The garrison office has been preparing since the beginning of the year, and now everything that needs to be prepared has been almost completed. What remains is the intensive training of the soldiers.

However, this year's spring ploughing is about to begin. While going out is important, spring ploughing cannot be delayed.

Therefore, what Yang Zhengshan needs to do is to try his best to ensure that spring plowing can be completed smoothly without affecting the expedition.

As time passed, Yang Zhengshan traveled between the Chengguan Fort and the Tunbao outside the city every day.

While supervising the spring ploughing work, he also trained with the soldiers of the garrison camp.

As March comes, spring ploughing is on the agenda, and the time to go out is also approaching.

On this day, Yang Zhengshan was in Chengguan Fort, inspecting the training of the soldiers.

He looked at the aggressive soldiers and felt very satisfied.

After nearly three years of training, the soldiers of the garrison battalion have become the elite among the elite. The only thing they lack is actual combat.

Once they are dragged onto the battlefield and see blood, they will become demons that the enemy fears.

Yang Zhengshan had great confidence in them, and they also had great confidence in Yang Zhengshan.

After the inspection, Yang Zhengshan, Han Cheng and Song Dashan returned to the main hall.

Currently, the garrison battalion has one captain, Han Cheng, and two lieutenant commanders, Song Dashan and Yang Mingzhen.

After Wang Sheng left, Yang Mingzhen was promoted to captain of a hundred households.

At present, among the Yang family members under Yang Zhengshan, Yang Mingzhen is also his key training target.

Yang Mingzhen is the oldest among the group of Yang family members recommended by Yang Zhengxiang when Yang Zhengshan was still in Yinghe Fort.

He is twenty-eight years old this year, and his cultivation has reached the third level of the acquired realm.

In terms of personality, he is not as calm and serious as Yang Mingwu, but rather a bit similar to Yang Mingzhi, with a lively mind and smart work.

Now Yang Mingzhen has taken on the leading role in the garrison camp, and he is basically responsible for all training matters.

Song Dashan is mainly responsible for the city defense tasks and is responsible for coordinating patrols and shift changes among the soldiers. Recently, he has also been cooperating with Xie Yuan to take over city defense matters.

Han Cheng is responsible for coordinating the overall situation and ensuring the logistical needs of the garrison battalion.

As for Yang Zhengshan, he will not interfere in specific matters. What he has to do is to find out the gaps and prevent Han Cheng and others from making mistakes.

This is actually the characteristic of Yang Zhengshan's way of doing things.

He has always tried his best to stay out of specific affairs. In his opinion, the most important thing for a leader is to use people.

At most, he would just do the beginning, and the rest of the work would be handed over to his subordinates.

Of course, he is not a hands-off boss. He will do a good job of subsequent supervision and coordinate relations with all parties, such as Songzhou Guard, Bingbei Road, Canjiang Shogunate and other government offices.

In the main room, Yang Zhengshan, Han Cheng and Song Dashan sat down, and Han Fei immediately brought them tea.

Han Cheng glanced at his son, smiled, and said nothing.

Han Fei has been with Yang Zhengshan for more than two years, and he has seen the changes in Han Fei over the past two years.

To be honest, at this moment he was extremely glad for his original choice.

As a father, he hopes his son will have a better future.

Although Han Fei does not have a specific official position now, his cultivation has reached the third level of the acquired realm, and he will definitely surpass him in the future. In terms of his style of doing things, Han Fei has also learned the true teachings of Yang Zhengshan, and every move carries the shadow of Yang Zhengshan.

He believed that Han Fei's future must be far better than his.

"Dashan, Song Hao's marriage hasn't been decided yet!"

Taking a break from his busy schedule, Yang Zhengshan talked about family matters.

Song Dashan was stunned for a moment, "Probably not yet!"

These matters are all handled by his wife. He has been busy with official duties recently and has no time to take care of these family affairs.

"Haha, you don't care about your son at all!" Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and said with a smile.

Song Dashan smiled innocently.

Care about your son!

Aren't sons meant to be beaten? Do they still need your care?

Han Cheng next to him looked at Song Dashan, then at Yang Zhengshan. Suddenly, he had an idea in his mind and couldn't help but envy Song Dashan.

In fact, this is not difficult to guess. Since Yang Zhengshan asked about Song Hao's marriage, he must have some ideas in his mind.

The news that the Yang family had been engaged with the Marquis' Mansion some time ago was no secret. The second young lady of the Yang family was already engaged, so there was only one person left.

Wang Yunqiao.

As Yang Zhengshan's subordinate, Han Cheng naturally knew something about the situation of the Yang family.

Han Cheng had already guessed it, but Song Dashan still didn't react and was still smiling foolishly.

This guy is so naive. If you ask him to do something, he will do it seriously. But if you try to play tricks on him or keep him in suspense, it would be like playing the lute to a cow.

Yang Zhengshan was also helpless and could only say: "Yun Qiao is also old enough to get married!"

But Song Dashan still didn't react, instead he said: "Miss Yunqiao is well-behaved and clever. It would be a blessing for anyone to marry her!"

Then there is no more.

Very good, and you know how to say nice things.

Yang Zhengshan had the urge to hold his forehead. He felt that Yu Qingyi should be the one to handle this matter. Song Dashan's argument was simply not convincing.

"You, you, hey~~"

Yang Zhengshan really didn't know what to say. He couldn't just say it out loud.

Yunqiao is a girl, so she must be reserved when it comes to marriage.

Even if he wanted Yun Qiao to marry Song Hao, he couldn't go and beg Song Dashan for help.

It should be the Song family who proposes marriage, not the Yang family.

Yang Zhengshan turned his sleeves and left. Song Dashan was confused, but he could still see the unhappiness on Yang Zhengshan's face.

"Sir, what happened?" Song Dashan asked Han Cheng beside him.

Han Cheng coughed lightly and reminded: "You should go back and discuss this with your wife!"

However, he couldn't say too much about this matter. After all, it was not something that had been decided. If he said something he shouldn't have, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

So Song Dashan has to figure this out on his own.

After saying that, he tucked his sleeves in and walked out of the main room.

Song Dashan was confused. What does this have to do with my wife?
Although it is still unclear, Song Dashan has an advantage, that is, he has a good wife, and he tends to listen to his wife.

It was his wife who suggested that he follow Yang Zhengshan to Anyuan City.

In the evening, after Song Dashan returned home, he immediately told his wife what Yang Zhengshan had said.

"Madam, what does Lord Yang mean by this? Why is he angry?"

After telling the story once, Song Dashan asked seriously.

Song Li looked at Song Dashan as if he were mentally retarded, "You are such an idiot!"

"Why did my wife scold me?" Song Dashan was a little dissatisfied.

Not only did Mrs. Song Li scold him, she also picked up a rolling pin and hit him hard, "You stupid head!"

Song Li knew very well what kind of person her husband was, and she was also used to Song Dashan's temper. However, every time Song Dashan did something stupid, she couldn't help but want to scold and hit him.

"Okay, don't worry about it!" Song Li really didn't want to explain to Song Dashan.

Song Dashan looked at his wife and thought for a while, "Okay, I'll go practice for a while!"

Soon, he put the matter behind him.

He always thinks that if he can't figure something out, he shouldn't think about it, and he always does what others tell him to do seriously.

Of course, there are not many people who can order him to do something. Currently, there are only his wife and Yang Zhengshan. As for other people, he will also weigh them and have his own judgment of right and wrong.

It's just that his assessment and judgment of right and wrong only remain on the surface.

Song Dashan is a little stupid, but he is not completely stupid. The most important thing is that he has a good wife.

He put the matter behind him, but Song Li did not.

The next morning, Song Li brought Song Hao to the Yang family to visit Yu Qingyi.

In the past, the Song Li family had never dared to think about marrying into the Yang family.

The Song family can be as wealthy as it is today thanks to Yang Zhengshan’s support.

If it weren't for Yang Zhengshan, Song Dashan might still be just a small flag now.

Now that she knew that Yang Zhengshan intended to marry Wang Yunqiao to Song Hao, Song Li felt like a blessing had been sent from heaven.

Song Hao and Wang Yunqiao are in love with each other. They have been attracted to each other for a long time, but they have been hiding it due to etiquette.

Now that the elders of both sides have agreed to their marriage, they are naturally very happy.

The wedding process of the two went very quickly and was much simpler than that of Liang Jinyan and Yang Yunxue. After all, the Marquis' Mansion was of high status and had many rules and etiquette.

The Yang family and the Song family didn't have so many details. After Yu Qingyi and Song Li reached an agreement, all that was left was just a formality.

Of course, Yang Zhengshan’s rules cannot be broken.

Daughters of the Yang family can only get married after they turn sixteen. Although Wang Yunqiao is not a daughter of the Yang family, Yang Zhengshan raises her as a daughter, so he also requires that Wang Yunqiao be married after she turns sixteen.

Just when the Yang and Song families were discussing the marriage of Wang Yunqiao and Song Hao, the military order to attack the Hu tribe in the East China Sea came down from Chongshan Town.

April 8th, the 29th year of Chengping.

A group of cavalry came from Jiacheng to the garrison office of Anyuan City.

"Lord Yang, this is a military order!"

A man with a resolute face handed a document to Yang Zhengshan personally.

Yang Zhengshan took a deep breath, took the document, and said calmly, "Thank you for your hard work!"

"It's not hard. Since the military order has been delivered, we will take our leave first!"

A dozen or so cavalrymen came and left quickly. They stayed in the garrison hall for less than a quarter of an hour and then left in a hurry.

Yang Zhengshan did not try to keep them, because he knew very well that these cavalrymen still had to go to other cities to deliver military orders.

In the main hall, Yang Zhengshan opened the official document.

Looking at the content above, Yang Zhengshan showed a bright smile on his face.

“Interesting, interesting, hahaha~~”

He didn't expect that he would receive such a military order, and he didn't expect that the expedition plan formulated by Lu Chongde and Liang Chu would be like this.

This was far beyond his expectations, and I believe it was beyond everyone's expectations as well.

But it's a really good plan.

When Yang Zhengshan read the contents of the military order, he couldn't help but become excited.
