Chapter 81: Return

As the moon gradually crossed the sky, the night passed peacefully, and nothing happened that Xiao Yi feared. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

A new day gradually rose, and Xiao Yi and the others poured all the remaining mutton into the pot and boiled the mutton soup, with some hard dry food made by He Ping, and a fragrant breakfast appeared in front of everyone.

Today is not yesterday's sad thing, everyone is a storm again, a pot of mutton, more than 20 servings of dry food to eat the essence, full of food, Han Dong smiled and said that it has been a long time since I have eaten so happily, after packing up the things for dinner, everyone is on the way back to Yong'an Fort.

The sun was shining, as the weather gradually warmed up, Xiao Yi was wearing a thick mandarin duck jacket, and there was already some fine sweat on his forehead, plus he was in a hurry, he felt a little hot, and it seemed that he was going back to change into dry clothes.

The group walked all morning and finally saw the pier guards of Yong'an Fort from a distance, which means that they are almost at the boundary of Yong'an Fort, and they don't know if they have arrived. I don't know if Shi Lu has come back with someone, it's been so long, will something happen, Xiao Yi has only been away for a day, and he is very worried.

"What kind of pier is this, why is it strange in this life, I haven't seen it before, and there are officers and soldiers on duty?" Zhong Yang looked at the pier platform from a distance, and was surprised.

Several people also looked at it, only to see that on the pier, a figure standing upright with a spear in the distance could be seen in the distance. Han Dong said happily, "Seeing this pier from a distance makes me feel a little safe. Bao Shi and Heya behind him also looked at the pier platform and didn't know what they were thinking.

"Brother Xiao, this is the Mandarin Duck Water, you can go up to the pier guard on the edge along this Mandarin Duck Water. At this time, I don't know if all the wasteland has been reclaimed. Shi Gang said with a smile.

Xiao Yi walked slowly while leading the horse, "It should be nearing the end, we have been away for a whole day." ”

Shi Gang nodded, and the four of them slowly walked along the mandarin duck water.

I saw that the mandarin duck water river was clear and visible to the bottom, not wide or narrow, the water was several zhang deep, and the river was hundreds of meters wide. It is just enough to prevent a small group of people from crossing the river, and the most beneficial thing is that this mandarin duck water has many tributaries, and the tributaries are scattered, which also causes the river to appear wider.

If there are people over there who want to cross the river, it is impossible to cross without a bridge, so it is very simple to stop it.

Soon, he was almost in front of the dun guard, Zhong Yang gasped, looked at this dun guard, and marveled.

The location of the dun guards is on the high ground, so the field of vision is vast, and the soldiers on the dun guard found Xiao Yi and his party from a distance, but they couldn't see the people's clothes clearly.

Wang Dayong, the captain of the night team, said that when he saw anyone, he would put the fire on the fire as soon as he saw it, and he was ready to light the beacon fire at any time.

The garrison soldier was immediately ready to light the beacon fire, and said something to the people who were working around the guard, and the people hurriedly hid in the guard and watched nervously from the top.

The garrison went out of the guard, untied his horse, and took his saber with him. Roared and rode towards Xiao Yi and his party, watching from a distance, the more I looked, the more wrong it became, so familiar!

When I got closer, I saw that Xiao Yi was back, and dismounted directly, "The little one has seen a hundred households!" Brother Shi! ”

Xiao Yi saw the fully armed soldiers who came out to check, and nodded to signal him to get up.

When the soldier got up, "What's your name, it's a recruit who joined the army some time ago." ”

The soldier said loudly, "Yes, the little Zhao Dahe participated in the Battle of Xiaowutai Mountain, and he rotated the guards today!" ”

Listening to Zhao Dahe's humble and arrogant answer, Xiao Yi said hello, "Zhao Dahe, you don't slack off on defense at all times, you should take a credit!" ”

"Thank you, sir!" Zhao Dahe was very pleased.

"My lord, hurry up and rest in the pier, and wait for my Pegasus to report the return of Brother Huang!" said that he wanted to step forward to take the luggage for Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi waved his hand, "No need, you just fly the horse to report it." ”

Zhao Dahe glanced at Xiao Yi, his eyes flashed with hesitation, and then without hesitation, he turned over and got on the horse, "Yes!" With a loud shout, he galloped east, raising puffs of smoke and dust.

Shi Gang looked at Zhao Dahe's performance just now, and said with a smile, "This kid has grown up, but he can't even stand up in line, and I even kicked this kid." ”

Xiao Yi nodded, "They are all good seedlings, and everyone is growing." ”

Xiao Yi and his entourage walked to the side of the dun guard and saw the people who had been waiting for a long time. When the people saw Xiao Yi coming, they stepped forward one after another and surrounded Xiao Yi and his party, showing their enthusiasm.

Zhongyang looked at Xiao Yi, it was the first time he had seen Guan Tun who was so popular with a group of people, it seemed that this Xiao Yi was very popular here, so he wanted to go to Yong'an Fort to see.

Xiao Yi didn't expect the people to be so enthusiastic, so he hurriedly handed it over to Shi Gang and hid aside. Shi just got rid of the people and let the people continue to work. found Xiao Yi who was squatting behind the dun guard, and laughed.

"Brother Xiao, you hand over these people to me, it's better for you to hide to the side."

Xiao Yi had a serious face, and said to Shi Gang, "Old Shi, let's talk about it, did you find any deficiencies in our Dunwei just now?" ”

Shi Gang looked at Xiao Yi, who had a serious expression, and also put away his smile.

After thinking about it for a while, "No, I feel that our dun guards are very useful, and the cost is small, which is much better than those border army duns." ”

"No, not exactly." After a pause, Xiao Yi continued, "You say, why did Zhao Dahe come to us just now? ”

Shi Gang replied without thinking: "This still needs to be asked, of course I saw it to greet you and me." ”

Otherwise, Zhao Dahe saw someone in the distance, and he wasn't sure whether it was friend or foe. That's why it's going to come out and find out, and it's risky to do that. For example, Zhao Dahe saw clearly but was killed, and at night, he couldn't see clearly, so that the role of our dun guard was completely lost. Xiao Yi talked eloquently.

Shi Gang also understood the seriousness of the matter when he heard it, "Otherwise, each dun guard will be on duty?" ”

Xiao Yi waved his hand again, "No, now there are thirty-six guards around Yong'an Fort, and there are already thirty-six people in each place, and one more person will be dispatched, and the number of guards will reach more than seventy, and we don't have so many soldiers." ”

Shi Gang had no choice, "Then how to solve it?" ”

Xiao Yi sighed, he actually had a way in his heart. But he can't say, because he doesn't know if this method is feasible, and there are too many variables in the material and personnel.

He just sighed, "Let's do this first, and then I'll talk to Huang Yang and them when I get back to the castle." Shi Gang nodded.

Looking at the people who were busy working, everyone was smiling. Han Dong asked, "It's the first time I've seen such a hot reclaim of wasteland. ”

A man smiled without looking back.

"These barren fields are not easy to cultivate." Han Dong hesitated.

Fang just pressed a person who was holding a hoe to open the land, and said with a smile, "This is not true, the adults of the hundred households have given each of us ploughing oxen, and it is not difficult to plow at all." ”

A woman brought a bucket of water and put it on the ground, wiped her sweat, and said with a smile, "Yes, this is all my own land, and I am happy to think about it." ”

Own land? Han Dong looked at the bucket in the woman's hand, "This bucket of water must be very tiring to carry from the river!" ”

But the woman smiled and said, "Well, from the river, the craftsmen dug a well there yesterday, and it is much more convenient." Speaking of which, thank you, there are many wells in this area! ”

After hearing this, Han Dong was stunned, digging wells, opening wasteland, dividing fields, dividing cattle... These were all things that I couldn't think of before, but the people here actually have all of them, looking at the scene of their joy and enthusiasm, this is still Datong?

Looking blankly into the distance, Han Dong found another dun guard, the same as the previous dun guard. A garrison soldier with a spear in his hand stood on a pier guard and guarded the field.
