Chapter 99 - 99 96 The Beacon Fires Rekindle
?Chapter 99: Chapter 96: The Beacon Fires Rekindle Chapter 99: Chapter 96: The Beacon Fires Rekindle Time slowly passed, and Zhou Lan’s military training was drawing to a close, with Yang Mingzhi and others returning to Yinghe Castle.
However, Yang Zhenshan knew that Zhou Lan’s training was only an interim conclusion and that she would definitely continue training in the future.
After all, she commands an army of eight thousand troops. To train such a large number of soldiers into elite forces demands substantial time and resources, which could not be completed anytime soon.
But later, when Zhou Lan continues training, Yang Mingzhi and the others might not need to assist anymore; they had already helped Zhou Lan train hundreds of elite soldiers during this period.
With these elite troops, there was no longer much point for Yang Mingzhi in going to Jianning Guard.
With the return of Yang Mingzhi and others, the organizational structure planned by Yang Zhenshan was now complete.
A Deputy Thousand Households, a governor, and ten officers of Hundred Households had all been adequately appointed.
A total of one thousand one hundred twenty soldiers and officials were fully enlisted.
The defense government administration, grounded by Old Li, Lu Wenchun, and Lu Wenhua, had also taken shape.
To this day, Yang Zhenshan could truly be considered an actual defense officer, even though not particularly powerful yet but sufficiently capable to confront enemies.
Yang Zhenshan was very satisfied with this achievement, yet his heart was still filled with concerns.
It was now February.
Would the Northern barbarian cavalry come again this year?
Based on last year’s situation beyond the border, there was a high likelihood they would invade and plunder.
Otherwise, they would face a challenging year.
Today, the outside of Yinghe Castle remained bustling as usual. Soldiers from other garrisons, Fire Road Piles, and signal towers had returned to their posts after basic training and were conducting field exercises.
However, three hundred cavalry remained outside Yinghe Castle continuing their training.
Other soldiers were responsible for guarding the garrison and Fire Road Piles, but these three hundred cavalry did not need to, so Yang Zhenshan kept them outside Yinghe Castle and planned to have them reside within.
However, this meant that Yinghe Castle needed to be expanded. Though it currently had ample space for two hundred military households, adding three hundred more cavalry households would certainly exceed its capacity.
The expansion of Yinghe Castle could not be completed quickly, especially now during winter with freezing conditions making building impossible. Therefore, he had to let these cavalry stay in tents outside the garrison.
The thick tents were warmed by charcoal stoves. Despite consuming more charcoal, it wasn’t too cold.
