Chapter 136 Adjustment
"The subordinates are incompetent, and the stone fortress is dangerously trapped by thieves." Jiang Faye looked ashamed.

Yang Zheng felt even more ashamed in his heart. At first he believed in Duan Da.

Although they always say that the clans are as close as one family, in fact they still prefer their own clan in their hearts.

This is human nature.

"Isn't this still under attack? Duan Da followed me through life and death, and never thought he would betray me. The fault is not yours, but mine." Yang Zheng shouldn't have put him in the mine in the first place.

"General..." Jiang Faye was greatly moved.

Yang Zheng also noticed that Jiang Faye's prestige was insufficient and his ability was mediocre.

It can be seen from the fact that the logging department has only been a small tribe for so many years.

Except for the Qiang people in Jishibao, the Han army did not trust him very much.

As soon as there is trouble, immediately defect.

The Han and Qiang fought on and off for more than a hundred years, and the crisis of trust was not easily eliminated.

The main opponent in the future will be Zhong Qiang, and Jiang Faye's identity as a Qiang is a bit embarrassing.

It's okay to be a Qiang follower, but it's not enough to be alone.

"I have recommended it to General Xiahou. From now on, you will be my guardian of Qiang. Come with me to Xiping."

Protecting the Qiang, starting from a sixth-rank official, can be regarded as Yang Zheng's personal staff.

But at least it has a reputation.

"Thank you, General!" Jiang Faye cupped his hands, secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

It can be seen that it is not easy to manage Jishi Fort. Blacksmiths, equipment, money and food are all in the fort. If Duan Da takes it, the consequences will be disastrous.

Talked with Jiang Faye in detail for a while, and made some family gossip.

"Ah Lian is happy."

"What?" Yang Zheng couldn't believe it for a moment.

Jiang Faye said with a smile: "The last time Zhou Tongzhi sent the two wives here, it happened to be cold, the doctor in the castle saw it and said Ah Lian was three months pregnant."

Yang Zheng was overjoyed, and rubbed his hands repeatedly. He has always felt unreal for being a human being in two lives, but his blood has continued, and suddenly, his connection with this world has deepened.

Not just beating and killing, not just intrigues, not just blood licking with the tip of a knife.

There is also a touch of warmth.

This may be a gift from God.

Without blood relationship in the true sense, Yang Zheng is always alone in this world.

No one could understand the joy in Yang Zheng's heart.

"Thank you father-in-law." Yang Zheng gave Jiang Faye a junior salute.

At this time, Jiang Faye also showed a touch of warmth on his face.

The relationship between the two is also strengthened by this little life.

"Haha, I don't get in the way. The two wives are in the small house outside the castle. I was afraid of accidents when I clashed with Duan Da, so I built a small house on the north mountain wall."

Yang Zheng cupped his hands, and went to Beishan with Liu Heng and other personal guards under the leadership of several Qiang soldiers.

There are secret sentries and guards along the way.

Jiang Faye's ability is average, but his mind is still very cautious.

On the cliff of Beishan, a small stone castle was built.

More than a dozen strong Qiang soldiers and Han soldiers guarded here.

Seeing Yang Zheng was like seeing the backbone, with awe and admiration in his eyes.

"General!"

Yang Zheng nodded slightly.

Today is different from the past. There were only a few hundred people before, and they had to be maintained by emotions.

But Duan Da's betrayal taught Yang Zheng a lesson.

You can't get too close to your subordinates, otherwise some people will always feel that since you can do it, so can I.

Duan Da was influenced by this kind of psychology, and felt that he was just out of luck.

There are countless people who capsized here in history.

Li Cunxu destroyed Liang in a hundred battles, but an actor could slap him in the face in public, and his personal guards could pull his horse's head for a reward...

When Li Zicheng entered Beijing, Liu Zongmin said bluntly: "The power of the emperor belongs to you, and the prestige of torture belongs to me. Don't worry about it."

Those at the top must maintain their majesty, so that those below will be in awe.

Otherwise, the people below will always give birth to the illusion that I can do it.

Keeping a certain distance is necessary.

Authority is authority, and power is supported by prestige.

The stone house is quite simple, and the wooden fence forms a yard.

Dozens of little girls chattered and busily acted as temporary maids.

Liu Heng and his personal guards stayed outside the courtyard.

"General..." The girls were surprised with joy.

Yang Zheng entered the stone house without changing his face.

With a bang, a pottery bowl fell to the ground and shattered, and the corn porridge inside flowed all over the floor.

"General?"

Chun Niang and Ah Lian wept with joy.

Yang Zheng looked at the food on the ground and frowned, "How do you eat these things?"

"Don't blame the general. There was a conflict between the Jishi Fort and the mine, and people took away the grain of the Hanhan. It's good to have these." The father and daughter were connected, and Ah Lian hurriedly defended Jiang Faye.

Yang Zheng said to the outside: "Go get some mutton, if you don't have it, kill the horse."

Liu Heng responded.

Looking at the haggard and emaciated appearance of the second daughter, Yang Zheng couldn't help but feel a little distressed thinking that he had suffered a lot these days.

Ever since they followed me, they haven't lived a stable life for a few days. Today the Shu people come to invade, tomorrow Guo Huai makes trouble, and the day after tomorrow Qiang Hu makes trouble...

Yang Zheng had to concentrate all his energy on dealing with it.

Occasionally getting along with the second daughter is more desire than love.

"You have worked hard." Yang Zheng's face was full of warmth, and he put his arm around one person.

The second daughter leaned obediently on his shoulder...

Outside the window, the little girls stretched their heads to get in.

"Go, go, look, there will be no mutton to eat." Yang Zheng threatened.

"Wow..." The little girls scattered.

Yang Zheng stayed with the second daughter for two days, like a competent husband, he felt a lot of sympathy for Ah Lian.

For Chunniang, more rain and dew were poured.

The second woman's complexion improved a lot.

However, it is impossible for Yang Zheng to indulge in Gentle Township for a long time, there are too many people attached to him.

On the third day, Zhang Te, Zhou Yu, Jiang Fare, Yin Chun, Zhou Fang, Gongsun Fu and several core personnel rushed over.

Zhao Aqi was in Shu, Yuan Xiao stayed in Xidu.

Zhang Te clasped his hands and said, "Forgive me, General. Duan Da's incident happened suddenly, and my subordinates..."

"It's not your fault in this matter. You can play by ear and transfer the people from Xihe Daying to Jishi Mountain, which is meritorious service." Yang Zheng just talked about the matter.

Duan Da's rebellion did not spread, and Zhang Te, Yin Chun, Zhou Fang, and Gongsun Fu all contributed to it.

Under the circumstances at that time, who could tell whether Duan Da and Jiang Faye were humans or ghosts?
It is the best choice to stand still and keep our duty.

Because they have nearly [-] Xihaihu slaves in their hands, and they can move the whole body with one hair. If these slaves riot, it will not be such a small battle.

Duan Da's rebellion is not all bad, at least it proves that other people are still loyal and reliable.

It can also be regarded as cleaning up potential internal threats.

"Let's stop with the rebellion. The imperial court will promote me to be the captain of Qiang Guard, and I will be stationed in the western capital!"

"Congratulations, General!" The eyes of several people were filled with joy.

Yang Zheng handed the blood-stained silk to everyone.

After seeing their names, they half-kneeled in front of Yang Zheng one after another.

"Thank you for your promotion, General."

Without Yang Zheng, they would probably still be the corporal chiefs and super chiefs in the military guard battalion, without special opportunities, it would be as difficult as climbing up.

"Zhou Yu, Yin Chun, Jishi Mountain will be handed over to you two from now on."

"Follow the order!" The two cupped their hands.

Zhou Yu is capable of writing and martial arts, he is actually the most suitable candidate, and he can best understand Yang Zheng's intentions.

Yin Chun was decisive and scheming, the last time he attacked and killed Ye Wudai, the few suggestions he put forward were quite pertinent.

Today's Jishi Mountain is mixed with Qiang and Hu, and it needs capable generals to guard it.

The shortcomings of Jiang Faye's lack of prestige have been exposed.

It's better to stay by my side, in the future, people who are familiar with Qiang affairs will be indispensable by my side.
