At this time, Jingbian Fort was the spiritual center of the East Road, Wang Dou, the supreme leader of the East Road, Xie Xiuniang, the loving mother, many senior officers and stewards, Han Chao, Gao Shiyin, Zhong Xiancai, Zhong Tiaoyang, Xie Yike, Qi Tianliang, Zhong Rong, etc., all came out of Jingbian Fort, and there were a large number of middle and low-level officers in the army, so although Jingbian Fort was small, there were many people who paid attention.

Every year, there are a large number of military families and soldiers to visit, as well as the students of various schools to pay respects, etc., with the higher the status of Wang Dou, the more famous Jingbian Fort is.

When Wang Dou said goodbye, Jingbian Fort was repaired more and more beautifully, the iconic large waterwheel by the Dongfang River stood tall, and some pigsty and chicken farms by the fort in the past were also gone, which looked quite clean.

Not than before there is only one south gate, now Jingbian Fort has the east, south, west three gates, with gravel path, respectively leading to the state city, five forts, Shunxiang Fort all places, the roadside is also planted with woods, walk on the path, look at Jingbian Fort in the distance, if leading to a quiet garden center.

Most of the people living in Jingbian Fort are the original old residents, and there are also some disabled and retired sergeants who are also willing to live inside and outside the fort.

They have a ploughing team to help them work, they have a monthly pension, and they come from all walks of life to express their condolences every year, and they live a worry-free life, listening to opera and singing every day, which is very leisurely. Those who can't stay idle can also go to the training department and each tunpu to serve as instructors, or to the staff department and the education department.

At this time, the chief of the fort was the original Dongjiazhuang general banner Hongqiu, although this rough man was not very literate, but he was a bold person, and he was of great help to Wang Dou back then, so when he was his old boss and the current ambassador of the Department of Civil Affairs, Zhang Gui recommended Hongqiu as the chief of Jingbian Fort, Wang Dou approved and agreed.

Before he arrived in front of Jingbian Fort, Wang Dou saw a towering statue on the Jingbian pier platform in the fort, which was wearing armor and standing by sword. Who is it if it's not you?

When I arrived in front of the Yongning Gate, I saw a large number of temple stages near the South Gate. There are also inns and restaurants, etc., but they are the industry of local military households, which are specially designed to entertain visitors and publicize how Wang Dou has risen. invincible and a series of deeds, and also obtained income as a result. It's really relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to eat the water, and relying on people to eat people.

When Wang Dou arrived, Hongqiu led the people of the castle to greet him outside the city gate. Everyone had tears in their eyes: "Great future, you!" ”

Looking at the excited burgers, Wang Dou was also excited, and solemnly arched his hand: "Fight, are you brothers and sisters okay?" ”

Everyone gossiped and said: "General, we are all good, we just miss the general day and night!" ”

Everyone gathered around Wang Dou, and one of his right arms seemed to be disabled. The young man who smiled and showed two huge tiger teeth said, "General." Do you remember the little ones? ”

Wang Dou has a good memory, most of the people or things he has seen can be remembered in his heart, and in a flash, he already knows who this person is, and said with a smile: "I remember you, the night non-accepting sergeant Xiao Bin, nicknamed "Big Tooth". Brother Xiao, are you doing well? Monthly pension of grain and rice. Can you get it? ”

As soon as these words came out, Qi Tianliang and others of the Logistics Department became nervous. But I heard Xiao Bin sigh: "The small one is very good, there is a pension grain and rice every month, and there are people who help cultivate the fields, but they are ......."

He looked lost and just sighed.

Wang Dou was about to ask him what was on his mind, when a woman from another side said, "General, I want to tell you about the big tooth." ”

Wang Dou saw that this woman was also in her twenties, her expression was quite shrewd and pungent, and he hesitated slightly: "Who is this eldest sister?" ”

The woman said, but it was the widow of the seriously wounded when Wang Dou suppressed bandits in the seventh year of Chongzhen, and the second sergeant who died after Wang Dou's army, and the woman was called Sun Niangzi inside and outside the fort.

Wang Dou asked Mrs. Sun how she was doing well, and if she had received the monthly pension grain and rice? …,

Xiao Bin said with a smile: "The general doesn't have to worry, she has a field to care for, and she has also set up a chicken farm on the side of Shunxiang Fort, which is beautiful." ”

Sun Niangzi hated him and said: "The slave family is good, but you drink too much every day, what has become of you?" ”

She turned to Wang Dou: "It just so happens that the general is here, but I have to talk about you well." ”

She was quite close to Xiao Bin in her expression, and the two seemed to be secretly in love. Also, Sun Niangzi is a young woman who is in her youth, her deceased husband has been dead for many years, and it is impossible to remain widowed forever, such as Wang Dou's mother Zhong's family, Han Zhong's widow Li Xiaoniangzi, there are still few people who keep festivals for their husbands for a lifetime.

In front of Wang Dou, Xiao Bin did not hide his thoughts, it turned out that after the sentry battle in the eleventh year of Chongzhen, Xiao Bin was seriously injured in his right arm, and Wen Daxing originally planned to let him serve as a training instructor for non-commissioned officers at night, but Xiao Bin was disheartened and just retired.

He saw that his brothers were galloping on the battlefield in the past, he was crippled, and his heart was lost, he was a sentimental person, and he often used wine to drown his sorrows, and he was very decadent. In the end, it developed to Long Er, Bench, Tiger Master, Qiang Ye and other people who knew each other in the past are not seen, Sun Niangzi lives with him in Jingbian Fort, and slowly falls in love, seeing him like this, he can't help but blame.

In fact, how can Big Tooth not have pride in his heart? Willing to be decadent like this?

Wang Dou listened to Xiao Bin's words, his expression became serious, and he said: "Brother Xiao, although your right arm is disabled, you are also a promising person, how can you be so decadent?" From tomorrow onwards, you will go to Ambassador Wen to report and train strong night non-commissioned officers for our Jingbian Army! ”

Seeing that the general still remembered himself and cared about himself, Daya burst into tears, tried to clench his fists, lay on the ground, and shouted: "Yes, I don't accept the sergeant Xiao Bin at night." ”

He lay on the ground for a long time, feeling a broad palm patting on his shoulder, he knew that it was the general's hand, and then several palms were patted on his shoulder, he knew that it was the hand of his Shangguan Wen Daxing, as well as his brother bench and others.

At some point, he burst into tears.

Then a soft voice sounded in his ear: "This is my man." ”

……

Wang Dou entered Jingbian Fort, but the fort was still like that, the houses were in order, and the rocky streets and alleys were spotless.

Wang Dou entered the former General Flag Office, and then climbed the Jingbian pier platform to look out, reminiscing about the past, staying for a long time, and there was a feeling that the years were urging people to grow old and that people were wrong.

He looked at Xinzhuang to the west, the former civil fort has now become a military fort, except for the Li family in the village, almost all the people of Zhuang have become military households. At this time, the chief of the fort was also the former tun chief of Zhouzhuang, Jia Duonan.

The Li family in the past. When Wang Dou was the head of Jingbian Fort, he looked like a behemoth, but now he feels insignificant.

The current Li family. He also desperately showed favor to Wang Dou, not only renovated the ancestral house of the Wang family in Xinzhuang, but also funded a big monument in front of the fort, as well as a tall statue of Wang Dou. Claim that this is the hometown of the loyal and brave uncle, and the general.

In order to compete for Wang Dou's homeland, Jingbian Fort and Xinzhuang can be described as fighting openly and secretly.

After leaving Jingbian Fort, Wang Dou led the army back to Yongning. He ordered the soldiers to take a ten-day holiday and return home to rest, and everyone cheered for a while.

……

After rewarding the soldiers and arranging the military camp, Wang Dou led the guards into Yongning City, his mother Zhong, his wife Xie Xiuniang, and Ji Junjiao. There are also a few concubines and so on. They all greeted each other in front of the General's Mansion.

When Emperor Chongzhen's holy decree went to Xiangyang, at the same time, the holy decree went to the East Road, and sealed the wife and son of Wang Dou, and sealed three generations.

The current Xie Xiuniang is already Mrs. Bo and her mother Zhong. It's Mrs. Taibo, their crown clothes. Same as Yipin, all are true red large-sleeved shirts. Wear a gold crown and, if you wear regular clothes, a crewneck shirt. Wang Dou's son-in-law Wang Zheng, then the shade is a brocade cloth and a thousand households.

Relatives were all excited to see each other, Wang Dou looked at his mother, she was in her fifties, but she was in very good spirits. Maybe it's because of good spirit and good maintenance, part of the original gray hair turned black, and the wrinkles on the face have also stretched a lot. …,

What hasn't changed is that his hair is still meticulously combed, and the stubborn and strong expression on his face has not changed. The original "Wang Dou" did not have much similarity with her personality, but the current Wang Dou is similar to Zhong's temperament.

Looking at this woman, Wang Dou's heart swelled with warmth, her mother Zhong, she was strong and self-reliant, and never bowed to fate. She was also full of charity and compassion, generous to the poor, never forgetting mercy even in the midst of nobility and wealth, shrewd and full of kindness, and was a representative of the great women of that era.

Wang Dou pushed the golden mountain, poured the jade pillar, and bowed to the Zhong family.

Nowadays, there are very few people who can make Wang Dou kneel, and Zhong is one of them.

Zhong came over to help Wang Dou up, with a happy smile on his face: "It's good." ”

She looked at Wang Dou carefully: "Alas, I'm thin again." ”

Perhaps in the eyes of the mother, the son will always be thin.

Wang Dou smiled and said, "Mother, let's talk about it when you enter the mansion." ”

Zhong patted his head: "Look at me, I'm really old." ”

She greeted her son and daughter-in-law: "Let's go into the house, let's talk about it." ”

Everyone laughed, and surrounded Wang Dou and the Zhong family into the general's mansion.

……

Wang Dou bathed and changed clothes, and after changing into civilian clothes, he exhaled happily, it was still comfortable at home.

When he came to the hall, his mother and wife were there, but Xie Yike was nowhere to be found, and asked, "Where is Yike?" ”

Xie Xiuniang thought that Wang Dou didn't like it, and was about to say it in a hurry, Zhong smiled: "I asked him to see his daughter-in-law, I haven't seen him for half a year, and I see that he misses him very much." ”

Wang Dou smiled and said, "It's still the mother who thinks thoughtfully, and the child wants the guards to return home and reunite." ”

Now in Wang Doujun, the general and former generals and their families have moved to Yongning City, Xie Yike and his wife Chu Xiaoniang also have a house in Yongning City, and there is a duty room in the general's mansion. The rest of the guards lived in the general's palace and took turns on duty.

Many of their wives and sisters are still working in the general's mansion. Needless to say, the loyalty of these people is needless to say, and now the safety of Wang Dou and his family is all concerned and consciously maintained by everyone in the East Road group.

Of course, there are still most of the guards' wives and families in Baoanzhou, Shunxiangbao and other places, Wang Dou wants to give them vacations, and reward them with wealth and silk, so that they can go home.

The maid brought hot tea, Wang Dou took a sip, and suddenly felt that the mansion seemed to have changed a little, knowing the son Mo Ruomu, Zhong smiled and said: "After you are crowned uncle, the court's decree will come down, and your daughter-in-law will be named Mrs. Uncle, and the old woman will be Mrs. Taibo." This mansion, the officials of the head ceremony department of the capital also came, according to the expansion of the mansion of the prince, the marquis, and the prince, there are now seven rooms in the front hall, seven rooms in the middle room, and seven rooms in the back hall, and the honor guard is also given. Alas, she is not as old as the old woman, and she can still enjoy such wealth. ”

Ji Junjiao smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, this is the dignity of the imperial court. ”

Zhong sighed: "Yes, this is the dignity of the imperial court, and my son's identity is different." ”

Wang Dou was also satisfied when he saw his mother's happiness, and he clapped his hands: "My sons and daughters, let them all come to see me." (To be continued.) )
