Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather.

Chapter 576: The Wealth of the Wuliang Royal Court
As his hand loosened, Master Zhixuan was suspended in the air by the spear, and the life force in his body slowly drained away.

It was not until Yang Zhengshan pulled out his spear that his body fell to the ground.

When the gun tip was pulled out, there was still blood on it, and the blood slowly dripped onto the bluestone floor. However, Yang Zhengshan turned his head to look at the house in the distance.

No one knows whose mansion it is, nor who is hiding in the house.

But it didn't matter anymore. Soon the door was pushed open and several soldiers covered in blood rushed into the house. A scream was heard, and then the soldiers came out and began to search the next room.

Yang Zhengshan withdrew his gaze, jumped onto the courtyard wall, then leaped into the air and rushed towards the direction of the palace.

At this time, on the wall of the palace, Yang Minghao and Yang Chengxu were being besieged by many warriors.

Yang Zhengshan just took a glance, picked up a few scimitars from the ground, and threw them towards where they were fighting.

The scimitar spun and fell into the crowd, splashing blood.

Then Yang Zhengshan looked at the closed palace gate again and kicked it out.

Boom~~
He kicked twice, and the ten-foot-high palace gate collapsed with a loud bang.

This palace gate was too simple, so simple that it couldn't even stop Yang Zhengshan.

In comparison, the city gate just now was much stronger.

"kill!"

Yang Zhengshan shouted coldly.

The many soldiers behind him immediately rushed into the palace.

Screams and screams rang out one after another, corpses fell inside and outside the magnificent palace, and blood formed streams and flowed into the pond in the palace.

Yang Zhengshan stepped into the palace step by step, looking around at the pavilions and towers.

This palace is richly decorated, displaying wealth and splendor everywhere.

Perhaps in terms of craftsmanship, this place is far inferior to Dayong’s Palace, but in terms of splendor, this place even surpasses Dayong’s Palace.

Don't think that the Wulianghu people are poor. Only the ordinary herdsmen are poor. The nobles of the Wulianghu people are very rich.

As the palace of King Wuliang, this is also the richest place of the Wulianghu tribe.

"Zhongji Palace!"

Yang Zhengshan looked up at the plaque above the palace and couldn't help but sneer.

Then he entered the palace. It was empty, without a single person, corpse or blood. He looked up at the throne on the stone steps.

The throne was carved entirely from white jade, inlaid with golden patterns, and many shining gems, and was also covered with a tiger skin.

Yang Zhengshan walked up and sat down, feeling very comfortable!
"Yes, I like it!"

The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, and he stretched out his hand and directly put the throne into the Lingquan space.

The battle outside the palace was still going on. I walked out of the palace, sat on the steps in front of the palace, and quietly watched the battle on the city wall in the distance.

It’s not that he wants to be lazy, he just needs a break.

For a whole month, other soldiers could have relaxed a little, but he was always on edge. Just now, he first hit the city gate with a pistol and then killed Master Zhixuan.

The process looks easy, but it actually consumes a lot of energy.

One thundering move and one gun shot consumed a lot of his energy and innate true energy. To be honest, if another innate warrior came, he might have to fight to the death.

Fortunately, there is only one innate warrior here, Master Zhixuan.

As time passed slowly, the screams and cries in the city gradually subsided, and when the sun set, the battle gradually subsided.

Many soldiers were leaning against the walls on the street, gasping for breath.

Several trumpets sounded again, and the light cavalry cruising outside the city retracted their formation and entered the city.

When the sunset completely sank into the horizon, the four gates of Yemi City were finally closed, but now the city has a new owner.

"My lord, everything has been cleaned up!" Song Dashan came to Yang Zhengshan and said in a hoarse voice.

Yang Zhengshan looked at his arm and asked, "Are you injured?"

"It's just a minor injury!" Song Dashan grinned.

Yang Zhengshan nodded and slowly stood up, "Let's go, we should be able to get a good night's sleep tonight!"

After a month of living in the open air, they can finally sleep in houses. Although the city is filled with a strong smell of blood, it does not affect the soldiers' rest.

Tonight, the soldiers can not only have a good sleep, but also have a good meal.

When Yang Zhengshan walked out of the palace, the soldiers had already started cooking in their mansions in the city.

The battlefield has not been cleaned up yet and the city is still full of corpses.

Some soldiers were already treating the wounded, while others were collecting the bodies of their comrades.

As for the corpses of the Hu people, there is no way to clean them up today.

Late at night, Yang Zhengshan fell asleep soundly while sitting on the tower of the South Gate. There were still light cavalry soldiers stationed on the city wall.

Although the soldiers were very tired, they could not ignore the necessary vigilance.

Yang Zhengshan personally sat on the city wall to prevent any enemy attacks at night.

However, the Wuliang tribe members reacted slowly, and the night was peaceful.

When morning came again, Yang Zhengshan woke up, feeling refreshed.

He stood in front of the city wall and stretched lazily.

"Greetings, My Lord!" The soldiers patrolling the city wall bowed when they saw him.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, "Have you slept yet?"

"We slept for three hours and just changed shifts!" the soldier grinned.

Yang Zhengshan smiled and said, "Then you will have to work harder. There will be other brothers to take over the shift later!"

"Dad, breakfast is ready!"

At this moment, Yang Minghao came over with the food.

"Noodles!"

Yang Zhengshan looked at the food he brought and his appetite immediately grew.

It was a very ordinary pancake, but Yang Zhengshan felt like drooling.

Damn it, during this month, except for the first few days when they were able to eat the bread they brought with them, the rest of the time they had either horse meat or dried meat, and at most some broth.

"Hey, there's a lot of food in the city. I just checked and there's a whole granary full of wheat!"

"But the other granaries are empty. They must have been taken away by Wuto!"

Yang Minghao put the food on the table. It was a very simple meal, a few large pancakes, made very roughly, and a large bowl of vegetable soup.

But Yang Zhengshan enjoyed the meal very much.

"Where's the mountain?"

"He was on duty last night and just went to bed."

"Well, let Chengxu come over to guard it later, and we will clean up the city first!" Yang Zhengshan said while eating a pancake.

Yang Minghao said: "I have asked the brothers to move the bodies and search for supplies in the city!"

"There are a lot of gold and silver in the city. Should we take them away?"

"How many are there?" Yang Zhengshan asked curiously.

Yang Minghao replied, "I don't know yet. The treasury in the palace has been found. There is a lot of gold and silver. Every mansion in the city has a lot of silver stored in it."

Yang Zhengshan thought for a while and said, "We definitely can't take everything away. We can only take a small part at most!" This is the capital of the Wuliang royal court. The property in the city should be half of the wealth of the Wuliang royal court.

I can’t say how much there is, but we can still find gold, silver and other valuables worth tens of millions of taels of silver. In addition to gold, silver and other valuables, there should be many other precious things here.

There are no magical fruits in the Wuliang Royal Court, but there must be many precious medicines.

In addition to precious medicines, some rarer minerals, skills, secret books, pill recipes, etc. are also very valuable things.

In the future, the Yang family will develop independently on Xingyue Island. These things are their foundation, so they will naturally take away everything they can.

Openly, they couldn't take away too much, but secretly, Yang Zhengshan put all these things into the Lingquan space.

Yang Zhengshan thought for a moment and said, "Take your men to search and transport all the valuables to the palace first."

"Yes!" Yang Minghao replied.

After breakfast, Yang Zhengshan went to the palace first. All the bodies in the palace had been moved away, but there were still a lot of bloodstains on the ground.

Of course, the soldiers' way of dealing with the corpses was also very brutal. They would not bother to bury the bodies, but would just find some vacant houses and throw the bodies in.

Utuo's palace was quite large, and he had many concubines. Unfortunately, none of the soldiers had any mercy on them, and all of the concubines had turned into dead souls.

As for Wutuo's children, I'm sorry, except for the soldiers from Chongshan Town, there should be no other survivors in the city.

Yang Zhengshan had issued the order for the massacre long ago.

"Have you found the palace's treasure house?"

Yang Zhengshan asked the captain who was in charge of searching the palace.

The captain in front of him looked to be about thirty years old, with a handsome face and a slender figure. He lacked a tough air, but instead had a bit of scholarly spirit.

But he is not a scholar. His name is Yang Qinhu, and he is a member of the Yang family's Qin generation.

Yang Qinhu was also one of the Yang family members who followed Yang Zhengshan relatively early. He followed Yang Zhengshan when Yang Zhengshan was still in Tenglong Guard.

Later, Yang Zhengshan became the general of Chongshan Town, and he joined the Chongshan Town Flag Battalion.

"Found it, My Lord, follow me!" Yang Qinhu led Yang Zhengshan to a palace in the royal palace.

However, the treasure house does not refer to this palace, but to the basement under the palace.

Walking down the stairs, a wide underground space soon appeared in Yang Zhengshan's eyes.

"These are precious medicines, over there are some ores, and over there are some weapons..."

Yang Qinhu gave a brief introduction.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the things in the treasure house and nodded slightly.

Treasures passed before his eyes one after another, but few of them could arouse his interest.

"These are pills!" Yang Qinhu said, pointing to a shelf.

There are porcelain bottles on the shelves, each with a label on it.

Not to mention, there are quite a lot of pills.

Yang Zhengshan opened a porcelain bottle at random and smelled it, and found that they were all well-preserved pills.

"What is your current level of cultivation?"

"Well, I just broke through to the seventh level of the acquired realm some time ago!" Yang Qinhu said.

Yang Zhengshan smiled, then opened the porcelain bottle containing the Sanhua Blood Qi Pill, poured out nine pills from it, and put them into a small porcelain bottle.

"The Three Flower Blood Qi Pill is made from the Baise Flower, Qianxin Flower, and Six-Leaf Peony Flower. Although it cannot increase the strength of the Qi, it can replenish the Qi and blood of the seventh and eighth level warriors, allowing them to condense the Qi more quickly!"

"This is the most suitable for you now. Take it. You can only use one pill a month. After using up nine pills, do not take this kind of pill anymore. It is best not to take any pills within a year!"

He threw the small porcelain bottle to Yang Qinhu.

Yang Qinhu was stunned for a moment, then said happily: "Thank you great uncle for the reward!"

Yang Zhengshan waved his hand and continued to check the pills on the shelf. At the same time, he gave instructions: "Your gun skills are a bit off. Although everyone has a different understanding of gun skills, the foundation of our Yang family's gun skills is fast, accurate and ruthless. Your gun is ruthless enough, but not fast enough."

"I remember there is a martial arts book called Thirteen Quick Gun Styles. Where can I see it?"

"When we get back to Chongshan Town, go ask Minghao!"

Yang Qinhu was even more delighted, "Thank you great uncle for your guidance!"

Yang Zhengshan looked at the other things and said, "Go find some boxes, pack up everything here, and take everything away when we leave!"

"Yes!" Yang Qinhu responded and went out to look for the box and the person.

Yang Zhengshan took the opportunity to put some things here into the Lingquan space.

He didn't take a lot, but they were all good things.

The remaining things are also good things, but most of them are things that the Yang family has no shortage of, such as elixirs. He is too lazy to touch them, as he can refine all of them.

A moment later, Yang Qinhu came back with a dozen soldiers.

They packed everything here into boxes.

Of course, they wouldn't notice that something was missing, because he didn't know how much was there.

All day long, the soldiers were collecting good things in the city.

A large number of valuable items were moved to the palace by the soldiers, including countless gold and silver jewelry, precious medicinal materials, jade, precious furs, etc.

Thousands of soldiers spent a whole day moving valuables.

So many treasures were placed in a mess on the square of the Jidian Hall in the palace, and the entire square turned into a treasure mountain.

"It's a pity we can't take it with us!"

After Song Dashan woke up, he ran over and looked at so many good things, and couldn't help but feel regretful.

Yang Zhengshan smiled and asked, "Are there many war horses in the city?"

"Not many, only about a thousand!" Song Dashan replied.

The Wulianghu tribe has no shortage of war horses, but the war horses in Yemi City were probably taken to the battlefield by Wutuo. Most of the war horses in the city were used by many noble families in the Wuliang royal court.

"Go and get ready. We'll leave after two more days of rest!" Yang Zhengshan ordered.

"Oh, aren't we waiting for Wu Tuo to come back?" Song Dashan asked.

Yang Zhengshan shook his head. "No more waiting. If he comes back, we might not be able to leave!"

He wanted to kill Wutuo before, but now he doesn't want to kill Wutuo.

When Wu Tuo came back and saw Ye Mi City completely turned into ruins, Yang Zhengshan felt that this was more painful than killing him.

Don't forget, all of Utuo's wives, concubines, and children were slaughtered.

hehe~~
A hint of coldness flashed across Yang Zhengshan's eyes.

I believe Wutuo will remember this great gift for the rest of his life.

In addition to this reason, Yang Zhengshan also did not want his soldiers to suffer too many casualties.

Although yesterday's battle went smoothly and Yemi City was captured with ease, the soldiers suffered heavy casualties.

There were more than 2,000 soldiers killed in the battle, 600 to 700 seriously injured, and more than 5,000 slightly injured.

The reason for such heavy casualties was, firstly, that the soldiers were exhausted when they rushed into the city and their combat effectiveness was greatly weakened; secondly, this was the royal city of the Wulianghu tribe after all. Although Wutuo took away most of the elite soldiers and generals, there were still many martial arts masters in the city.

If they stayed and waited for Wutuo, perhaps Yang Zhengshan could kill Wutuo, but the less than 20,000 soldiers under his command would probably have to fight hard.

Don't forget that Utuo still has 120,000 elite Hu cavalry under his command.

Yang Zhengshan couldn't risk the annihilation of his entire army by staying and killing Wutuo.
