In addition to training, there are also many military affairs, including expanding the roster of non-commissioned soldiers, and organizing and distributing. Weapons and military equipment, vehicle tents, grain, grass and horses, etc., because Yang Yan has to pay for the training of the army, so these things can only be handed over to Xin Qiji to deal with, every day Xin Qiji has to run all over the officials, households, soldiers, workers, privy council and other departments, despite the support of Zhongshu Province and the Privy Council, these departments do not dare to deliberately set up obstacles for them in the Pingnan matter, but they also tired Xin Qijian enough, almost unable to catch up with the effort to eat.

Later, Chen Liang really couldn't see it, so he came to help Xin Qiji share some affairs. After Jing Yanjun joined the training, Zhao Qianru also joined in to help, and Xin Qiji had some respite.

Moreover, Yang Yan issued an additional list of equipment: 15,000 fire bows and arrows, 10,000 fire crossbow arrows, 6,000 fire blasters, 300 thunderbolts, 300 tribulus fireballs, 400 iron artillery, 500 fierce oil bombs, 500 poison smoke balls, 150 fire dragon buckets, 100 small bed crossbows, etc. In this regard, the Ordnance Department did not dare to slack off and stepped up production. Wei Chang also stepped up supervision day and night.

During the training period, Yang Yan paid this month's military salary, and changed the previous practice of distributing the general's salary to each army, and then the army itself to send special personnel to each army to give the law to each soldier's hands, so that the command and general level of each army did not have the opportunity to be harsh. It has done what he promised, and many soldiers were paid a penny. Almost every soldier at the grassroots level received a full salary for the first time, and the morale of the army was greatly invigorated, and they also consciously worked harder in training.

Although some generals who often pay the military salaries of the army are dissatisfied, but now even the emperor, Zhongshu Province, and the Privy Council are all doing their best to support Yang Yan.

After Zhao Tuan learned about it, he said to Yu Yunwen: "The famous generals of the ancient times can make the soldiers serve with death, and now Yang Yan can break the rules and win the hearts of the army, which shows that he is the style of a general, and this time the pacification of the south can be expected to be successful." ”

At the same time, Zhao Tuan also felt that Yang Yan's military strength was insufficient, and he transferred the front division of the palace to Yang Yan. There were 3,400 men in the Destroying Front Army, including 300 cavalry, and the commander was named Wu Xi. So Yang Yan designated the Destroying Front Army as his own personal guard army, which was personally managed by himself. and saw Tie Chenglin arrange it in the Destroying Front Army, and handed Gu Xueping over to Zhao Qianru to take with him. In addition, Zhao Tuan gave the four flags of Longpan, Fengxiang, Tiger Wing, and Feiyan. Except for the Feiyan Banner, which is a special banner for the Shocking Yan Army, the other three flags were all given to Yang Yan. Yang Yan temporarily left these three banners in the Destroying Front Army. Later, the merits will be distributed to other armies.

In this way, 17 days of intensive preparations were made, and all the work was basically ready. But the firearms made by the ordnance supervision, the bed crossbow was still installed. At this time, Jingjiang Prefecture sent another official document, saying that the Manichaeans were gathering their forces, and Da Grate launched another attack, and sent reinforcements to the south to save the court. After discussion, Yu Yunwen, Chao Yanzhi and Yang Yan decided to leave Zhang Shiyan's Chinese army in Lin'an, wait for the completion of the ordnance prison, and then escort them to Guangnan. Yang Yan led the other four armies to the south first to stabilize the morale of the army in Quang Nam. The Privy Council also ordered Li Gongzuo to lead the naval army from Haizhou to Guangzhou to join Yang Yan's army.

The day before departure, Yang Yan gave the whole army a day off and rested. He also returned to the house and said goodbye to his family. Tassel and Yan Rui were packing for him, and Tie Chenglin and Gu Xueping also went back to the house to prepare. Yang Yan came to Yang Yizhong's mansion and said goodbye to Yang Yizhong and his wife first.

Since Yang Yan Guangnan came back, Yang Yizhong did not talk to him like Yizhu, but simply asked about Guangnan's experience, and Yang Yizhong was noncommittal about Zhao Tuan's appointment of himself as the main general to quell the Guangnan Rebellion, which is indeed a bit abnormal. Now that Yang Yan is about to go on the expedition, he can't help but want to ask Yang Yizhong if there is anything he wants to tell him.

After seeing Yang Yi and his wife, Mrs. Yang instructed him a few words, nothing more than some caution along the way, paying attention on the battlefield, etc., and then retreated to the back room, leaving only their grandparents and grandchildren to be alone. Yang Yan couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa, don't you have anything to tell me?" ”

Yang Yizhong smiled slightly and said: "Zihao, you have already been **, you can be on your own, you have your own opinions and thoughts on everything, you don't need grandpa to say anything more." ”

Yang Yan's heart trembled, this was the first time that Yang Yizhong used his own words to call himself, remembering Yang Yizhong's pure teaching to himself in the past, his heart was excited, and said: "But, I ......"

Yang Yizhong waved his hand and said, "I know what you're going to say?" In fact, you did a very good job in Guangnan this time, because it was in the two battles of Hengshan and Guangzhou, both under extremely unfavorable circumstances, the limited power in your hands was exerted to the maximum, just because you can do this, grandpa can also rest assured that you can go to Guangnan to quell the chaos. And I won't have any specific advice to you, lest my thoughts shackle your actions. He sighed softly and said, "At least Grandpa didn't have the courage to challenge the bad habit of withholding military salaries, but you dared to do it, which shows that you have already walked in front of Grandpa, and you don't need Grandpa to teach you how to do it anymore." ”

Yang Yan's voice was a little choked, and he said, "Grandpa......"

Yang Yizhong smiled slightly: "But there is one thing to remind you, since you have challenged the bad habit of deducting military salaries, then there is no turning back, and you must stick to it to the end." Don't think that those veteran oilers will be restrained by you all of a sudden, they are just temporarily patient, waiting for the opportunity to take revenge on you again. This point must not be taken lightly, otherwise not only will you not be able to pacify the south this time, but you will also lose badly. But I'm sure you can do it well. ”

Yang Yan felt a pang in his heart, he really didn't take this matter to heart, and thought that he would really be safe from now on. Said: "Grandpa, I understand, I will be careful." ”

Yang Yizhong nodded and said: "Also, Wu Xi is the person I raised with one hand, he is loyal, brave and good at fighting, you can definitely trust him, and the urging army is managed by him, although the number is not much, but the elite army of the front division of the palace is not inferior to the Fengsheng army, what Guan Jian's vicious battle does not visit him, it will not let you down." ”

Yang Yan nodded, Cao Xun and Gao Zhen will not lead the army directly, so at present, among the armies, the only one he can trust the most is Liu Fuwu's selection of the front army, although Zhang Shiyan is the commander of the Chinese army, but after all, he has just transferred to the Ma Military Division to serve as the commander, and he is not familiar with the army. Now with the addition of the Urging Army, he has mastered more than half of the current army, which makes Yang Yan feel much more at ease. At the same time, he was also grateful to Yang Yizhong, obviously allocating the front division of the palace to Yang Yan to command, and Yang Yizhong must have made a lot of efforts in secret.

Yang Yizhong nodded and said, "It's not too early, you are going to go on the expedition tomorrow, you have been busy training in the past few days, you must be very tired, go back and rest early." When you pacify the south this time and come back to know that the princess is married, grandpa will plan to retire and spend his old age in peace. ”

As soon as he mentioned Yang Yan's marriage, Yang Yan immediately remembered that Cao Xun and Gao Zhen begged him, and hurriedly told Yang Yizhong. This kind of thing is naturally not a problem for Yang Yizhong, and he has also met Cao Xun and Gao Zhen, and knows that both of them are promising young people, so he agreed. Yang Yan also breathed a sigh of relief, Yang Yi came forward, and the Zhang and Han families probably would not refuse, and they could be regarded as having an explanation for these two brothers.

Returning to his mansion from Yang Yizhong, Tassel and Yan Rui sorted out all the expenses for him to go out for him. Seeing Yang Yan coming back, he hurriedly explained to Yang Yan the things he had sorted out.

Since Yang Yan officially confirmed Yan Rui's identity, not only Yan Rui's whole person has also been relaxed, the gloomy cloud between her eyebrows has long disappeared, and even the tassel is very happy, firstly, she is not a jealous person, and she is grateful to Yan Rui for Yang Yan's punishment, so she is very friendly with Yan Rui, and secondly, Yang Yan seems to be getting stronger and stronger between the beds, and the tassel alone can't bear it for a long time, and every time she can always make her bones crisp and soft the next morning, and she can't get out of bed. Now that there is more Yan Rui, there is naturally one more person to share.

In fact, the Yang Mansion not only recognized that Tassel was Yang Yan's wife a long time ago, but also determined that Yan Rui would also be Yang Yan's wife and concubine sooner or later, but now Yang Yan and Princess Yongning have made a marriage contract, and they cannot marry them before they officially marry the princess. It's just that the whole house already treats the two of them as wives.

Yang Yan also felt that when he came back this time, he not only re-established the marriage contract with Zhao Qianru, but also set Yan Rui's identity, plus the tassel, it was not in vain that he could have the three of them as wives at the same time. For a while, my heart was also full of warmth.

At this time, Yan Rui got up and said, "My lord, it's not too early, you have to leave tomorrow, so let's rest early." I'll quit first. ”

Saying that, she turned around and was about to go out, but Yang Yan grabbed her sleeve and said, "Miss Yan Rui, don't go, you can stay and rest together tonight." ”

In fact, Yan Rui didn't want to accompany Yang Yan tonight, but she knew that she couldn't catch up with the status of the tassel in Yang Yan's heart no matter what, because she took the initiative to quit, and now she heard that Yang Yan wanted to accompany him with the tassel herself, although she was ashamed and shocked, she was also very willing in her heart. The tassel was also flushed with shame, but it was not against it.

It reached the shyness of the two of them, Yang Yanna could not bear it, hugged the two of them, walked into the bedroom, and spent the last night before the expedition.
