The banquet went very smoothly, at least on the surface, Bai Chongan and other civil and military officials were very satisfied, and then Bai Chongan went to inspect the subordinate Yong'an Fort, Changning Town and other places. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yong'an Fort is no longer what it was when Xiao Yigang left, and Xiao Yihou's successor Huang Yang and the current tun official Liu Shiren strictly followed Xiao Yi's instructions.

For a long time, the territory of Yong'an Fort has been peaceful and peaceful, but it is not peaceful in Yong'an Fort.

A huge construction project has been carried out since the beginning of Xiao Yi's resignation, and only now it is half completed, and Xiao Yi has envisioned a grand blueprint for Yong'an Fort.

There are many reasons why it has not been completed now, the most important is the reason for money and grain, Xiao Yi's money and grain sources are mostly obtained by bandits, and it was dull for a long time ago, and the acres have not been harvested, so there is no extra silver to buy raw materials, and the food for asking people to work has not been able to settle for a long time, and now that he has returned from victory, Xiao is also ready to start building again.

Yong'an Fort was originally built with two gates, the west 'Ping Thief Gate' and the east 'Expulsion Gate', which means that there is no need to mention it again.

When Xiao Yigang left, Yong'an Fort only had a wall about seven meters high, and there were no other buildings and passages.

This time to Yong'an Fort, even Xiao Yi was surprised by the changes in Yong'an Fort, first of all, the city wall, only the city wall was reinforced to a height of more than ten meters, and the four corners of the city wall were built with a square battlement, which was a horse face, in order to better defend the city.

There were piers built every few meters on the city wall, which could be used by archers or musketeers to shoot, which Xiao Yilin did not have when he left.

Entering the city, because Yong'an Fort is newly built, all the houses in the fort that rises from the ground are made of stone, row upon row in Yong'an Fort, the streets are also distinct, and there are two new streets and several small roads outside the main street where the fort was originally built.

In addition, Yong'an Fort also established a horse farm, military camp, school field, shooting range, etc., which is not much different from the peach blossom fort under the governance.

If Xiao Yi is asked, Yong'an Fort is better than Peach Blossom Castle, which was built brick by brick by himself, and will always be his rear and sustenance in the future.

The most striking places in the fort are three places, one is where Xiao Yi lived at that time, and now it has been changed to the Guantun official office.

Speaking of the official hall of the tunguan, there are very few official halls in other tunbao, and the peach blossom fort is not only, but also the largest and most magnificent one of the forts within a radius of 100 miles.

The second is the first masonry deep well under Xiao Yi's rule, which is known as the 'General Flag Well', and it is heard that the people have to worship the well water before coming here to fetch water.

The last one is the ancestral hall of the Yong'an Army.

There are also people who often come to worship here, and there are always two Yong'an army spears with helmets and armor outside the ancestral hall standing with guns in their hands, and the two sides of the ancestral hall are still pasted when the original construction was completed, and Xiao Yi waved his pen to make it.

"An Yingling, drive the Tartar thieves to die on the battlefield."

"China is prosperous, and the Yongan Iron Army stands in the sky."

Giving people a sense of awe, the people heard that Xiao Yi had returned to Yong'an Fort, and hurriedly put down the farm work in their hands and ran to greet and watch.

Bai Chongan didn't know what the people were thinking, and when he saw the people in such a warm atmosphere, he thought it was to welcome him, and he was also overjoyed at the moment.

At this time, he stood in front of the ancestral hall and looked at this couplet, Bai Chongan asked casually: "Xiao Yi, did you make this couplet?" ”

Xiao Yi nodded yes for Cheng Xiang, and then Li Erniu exclaimed: "I didn't think that Brother Xiao was a good hand at suppressing thieves, and this style is also extraordinary!" ”

Not to mention the surprise of those civil officials, Xu Feng and some of the officials behind him kept nodding.

Bai Chongan glanced at Xiao Yi and asked, "Can this official enter the view?" ”

Xiao Yi remained silent and said: "It is an honor for all the soldiers of the Yong'an Army to come to visit the ancestral hall of Yong'an Fort, my lord, please!" ”

Immediately after Xiao Yi made a gesture, Bai Chongan nodded with satisfaction and strode in, and his descendants all followed the fish.

There is no fancy decoration in the ancestral hall, and there are spirit cards of soldiers who died in battle, and these spirit cards are hung with the military cards issued to them by Xiao Yi during his lifetime.

At this time, Liu Shiren, who was the official of Yong'an Fort, slowly explained: "There are a total of 318 tokens in the ancestral hall, and since January of the third year of Chongzhen, the spiritual seats of the soldiers who died in battle have been placed in this ancestral hall......

Following Liu Shiren's words, Bai Chongan and the others stepped forward to look at them one by one.

Fan Rang, the third captain of the 12th squad of Yong'an Fort, Chongzhen's third year on January 21, the horseman attacked Yong'an Fort, and died defending Yong'an Fort.

The front ones were all killed in the battle of the original horse drawers, this was to resist the horse thieves, but some of the back surprised Bai Chongan and the others, they were all killed in battle with the Tartars?

Wang Dahu, in February of the third year of Chongzhen, was killed by the Tartars in the battle to defend the Beijing Division.

Li Cheng, the fifth team of the 12th squad of Yong'an Fort, Chongzhen followed Xiao Yixiao Wutai Mountain in three years to loot dozens of Houjin Mongolian cavalry, and died in battle.

……

Even Bai Chongan felt awe-inspired, and when he saw these tablets in front of him, he also felt a little bored, so he stopped Liu Shiren and walked out of the ancestral hall in a few steps.

When he got outside, he took a deep breath and felt much more comfortable, then he sighed: "There are so many heroes and martyrs in the Yong'an Army, if the defense of each fort can be like the Yong'an Army, why worry about the injustice!" ”

Li Erniu and Xu Feng were also in a trance after walking out of the ancestral hall, and sighed: "It's really full of loyalty!" ”

They found that Xiao was nowhere to be seen, and looked back.

Xiao Yi and the accompanying Huang Yang, Shi Lu and other Peach Blossom Fort generals bowed respectfully to those spiritual positions in the ancestral hall at this time, their tense bodies and movements were clear and clear, so that people could see at a glance that they were sincere.

Only then did they realize that the people outside were kneeling on the ground at some point.

Later, Xiao also accompanied Bai Chongan and his party to see the general flag well, and then went to Changning Town, after coming out of Changning Town, Bai Chongan had no intention of inspecting other tunbao, so he directly resigned and returned to the state city.

……

Walking on the way back to Zhou City, Bai Chongan has always looked solemn, half a year ago he had people inspect Wang Changliang's Changning Town and Liu Yiming's Peach Blossom Fort when he was defending, and he now has a bookcase recorded in the mansion.

And Xu Feng and the others also went to Peach Blossom Castle once, and although the news of their return had changed somewhat, it was not very obvious, and they didn't care too much.

Now I see that Xiao Yi's nearly 600 soldiers are all strong enough to defeat a peasant army of 2,000, and Xiao Yi's guards and fields are clearly layered, this time Xiao Yi left a deep impression on him, how did these Xiao Yi do it.

With this in mind, he returned to his mansion in the state city, and although there were songs and dances in front of the banquet, he still seemed absent-minded.

Xu Feng was puzzled and asked, "It's a little different to see that the lord came back from Peach Blossom Castle today, but what are you dissatisfied with Xiao Yi?" ”

Bai Chongan immediately retreated and said, "What do you think of Xiao Yi's strength?" ”

Xu Feng thought about it carefully, and said in a deep voice: "Nearly six hundred strong families, don't hide it from the adult, I feel that this time the adult will be promoted to the Acropolis, and he should get what he wants." ”

This Xu Feng said with a voice, Bai Chongan is still a moral character, and it is inconvenient for him to say that Xiao Yi will take over, so he only says that Bai Chongan has been promoted to the Acropolis.

Bai Chongan nodded, this time there was a great chance that he could be promoted to the Acropolis, and he was very happy needless to say.

But once he is promoted, the position of integrity officer in Ulzhou is afraid that it is none other than Xiao Yi, and he can see clearly all the defensive officers under him, whether it is political achievements or military achievements, none of them can compare to half of Xiao Yi, who else will it be if it is not Xiao Yi this time?

At that time, Xiao Yi will no longer be restrained in Ulzhou, and it will be difficult to restrain and monitor him from acropolis, and from Xiao Yi's point of view, it is inevitable that his situation will be beyond his control.

When he visited the territory of Peach Blossom Fort today, he was shocked, and his worries came from this.

Xu Feng struggled a little in his heart, but finally said: "If the adult wants to restrain Xiao Yi, you can prepare a small gift for the garrison lord, go and see it in person, maybe there is a turnaround, Xiao Yi's position, can't the garrison also send it to the military department." ”

Bai Chongan's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "High, really high!" (To be continued.) )
