Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 944: Chapter 670: It’s Finally Our Turn to Enter This Chaotic World!

The atmosphere in the main hall was somewhat heavy. Although everyone still didn’t know Yang Chengye’s plan, they had all heard the news that the capital city was under siege.

No matter what, with the capital city under siege, Chongshan Town must take action.

Yang Chengye’s gaze swept across the faces of the crowd, and then he slowly stood up.

Seeing him rise, everyone else also stood up one after another.

“Gentlemen, as officials of the court, we bear the responsibility of protecting the nation and the people. Now that the rebels have surrounded the capital city, attempting to overthrow the court, we must fight to the death for the country and the people!”

Yang Chengye said hypocritically.

Niu Zhuang, however, stood up and said, “The Marquis is right. With the capital city surrounded and the situation urgent, I propose we immediately dispatch troops to the south to support the capital!”

Yang Chengye looked at him and blinked, “Big brother, your acting is a bit fake.”

Jiang Nanguo looked at Yang Chengye, “Marquis, your acting is also very fake!”

“What’s this about the country and the people?”

“What’s this about supporting the capital?”

There’s a saying that could aptly describe Yang Chengye at this moment: Yang Chengye’s intentions are clear to all.

Although Yang Chengye hasn’t shown too much of his stance in Chongshan Town, everyone with a clear mind knows what kind of thoughts Yang Chengye harbors.

In the past, Chongshan Town at least superficially followed the orders of the court, but in the past year, Chongshan Town has almost treated the court as if it doesn’t exist.

Any orders from the court have been suppressed by Yang Chengye, and he has even detained several officials sent by the court.

He’s obvious, not too subtle about it.

Yang Mingwu looked at Yang Chengye, stroked his long beard, and laughed heartily, “Marquis, we are all ready and can set out at any time!”

“Yes, we have been holding back for a long time!” Lu Miaoheng also laughed.

Several Guerrilla Generals seemed eager to make a big move.

Yang Chengye, upon hearing this, beamed with a bright smile.

“Excellent!”

“It’s time for us to take the stage in this chaos of the world!”

With that, he opened the wooden box beside him and took out a square seal from it.

This square seal was small, only two inches and six parts, and it was made of copper.

It wasn’t a golden seal, nor a silver seal, just a small copper seal.

In Da Rong, super-ranking princes, commandery princes, dukes, and marquises have golden seals, standard first ranks to secondary second ranks have silver seals, and below standard third ranks, all have copper seals.

And the small copper seal Yang Chengye held now was not the Marquis Jing’an Seal, but Yang Zhenshan’s private seal from earlier years, which Yang Zhenshan used during his time at Yinghe Castle, An Yuan City, and Tenglong Guard for nearly ten years. People familiar with him from earlier years recognized this seal.

Such as Yang Mingwu, Yang Chengze, Yang Chengxu, Song Dashan, and others.

Looking at this small copper seal, Yang Mingwu’s eyes revealed a nostalgic look.

Now, in his seventies, he was a significant figure in Chongshan Town, but he longed most for the days when he followed Yang Zhenshan.

At that time, he was just a naive young man with not much in mind, just knowing to do whatever Yang Zhenshan instructed.

In the hall, only Yang Mingwu recognized this copper seal; Niu Zhuang had probably seen the imprint of this seal, while others did not understand its significance.

Holding the small copper seal, Yang Chengye’s eyes were full of eagerness.

“This is my grandfather’s private seal from early years, and it shall be used as the Great General’s seal of this marquis!”

“Luo Bo!”

He called loudly.

Luo Bo, standing beside him, promptly responded and then brought forward a stack of letters.

“Seal them!” Yang Chengye said solemnly.

“Issue orders, instruct the Vice General of Beiyuan Town, Song Dashan, to train the troops and prepare for the Wuliang Hu Clan’s invasion!”

“Issue orders, instruct Han Fei of the West Road Daning Guard of Chongshan Town, Dinghu Guard Wu An, to organize and prepare for war. If the Wuliang Hu Clan harasses Beiyuan Town, they will immediately set out to assist.”

“Issue orders, instruct Yang Qinteng of the Jianning Guard and Yang Jishan of the Jinzhou Guard in the central road of Chongshan Town to immediately lead the Rescue Camp south to East Bright Prefecture in Liaoxi.”
