Due to the large piles of wood and stone removed from the Si Lean Bandit Village, the raw materials for the construction of the fort wall fortress can be said to be sufficient. ”

Then he went around again.

……

In the planning and calculation of Wang Dou and the craftsmen, the fortress wall of Jingbian Fort is slightly smaller than that of Dongjiazhuang, with a circumference of one mile and dozens of steps, the fort wall is about ten meters high, and the city foundation is five meters thick, without bricks. Set up a south gate in the south direction, build a city tower on the gate, set up an urn city outside, and then have a moat.

Outside the fort, another arena was built for the training of sergeants, and a martial arts hall for the officers to sit and command and rest.

In the fort, the streets and alleys were planned to be paved with rocks, and there were drainage ditches on both sides, which were also paved with stones. Because the topography of Jingbian Fort is high in the north and low in the south, if it rains, it is easy to drain water, and there is no danger of rain and waterlogging. At the same time, a stone pit was built outside the south gate, and in the future, the stagnant water was directly discharged from the fort to the outside of the stone pit through the waterway, and the water would be used for the use of people and livestock in the fort, and even for future field irrigation.

This idea was conceived by Wang Dou, and after deliberation by the craftsmen, he thought it was feasible, and at the same time admired Wang Dou's whimsy.

After the street was built, because the fort had planned a piece of land in advance, in the future, the military households or foreign residents in the fort, if they did not want to live in the barracks, could buy land from Wang Dou, build their own houses on the divided plots, and finally the people of the fort jointly built temples, theaters and other public buildings.

With the design of Wang Dou and the craftsmen, the military households of Jingbian Fort only need to work hard, and Wang Dou and others estimate that it will take about two or three months to build the fort wall.

High-intensity labor requires a lot of rice grain, although Wang Dou can't let everyone eat white noodles, but millet grains, black flour cakes Wang Dou can be full. High-intensity labor also needs to be meaty, otherwise the physical strength will not be able to support it, and it is easy to urinate blood.

Wang Dou also stipulated one day of meat and five days of vegetarian food when he opened up the wasteland last year, gave Yu morning porridge in the early morning, and gave a ladle of wine for every ten people on seven days.

With a Shangguan like Wang Dou, plus building his own homeland, although the work is very heavy, everyone is very motivated.

Seeing this group of displaced people, Wang Dou was taken aback, and saw that this group of displaced people had about ten families and more than fifty people, which was the largest number of people who came to Jingbian Fort at these times. They were all ragged, yellow-skinned, and they all spoke with the same accent, as if they were from the same village.

These people stood in front of the south gate, looking at everyone around them with fearful eyes, and at the same time their eyes were full of hope.

In their surroundings, some of the military households in Jingbian Fort who were working pointed out and discussed with them from time to time, looking at these miserable displaced people, the military households of Jingbian Fort realized their happiness, thinking that they were the same as them back then, but now they can be fed and clothed, which makes their voices speak louder.

When Wang Dou and his party came out, they saw a circle of people around those homeless people, Yang Tong walked up and shouted: "What are you doing, don't you have to work?" ”

The soldiers dispersed with a bang, and went back to their work, but everyone's ears were raised high, and they kept an eye on the movement here.

When the people saw a young military leader come out and shout at everyone, they seemed to be very powerful, and everyone subconsciously shrank their bodies. However, seeing that this person is dignified, he is missing two front teeth on his mouth, which makes his speech a little leaky and his voice is slurred.

Looking at the past again, the wanderers saw Wang Dou who was surrounded by everyone like the stars holding the moon, and saw that although he was young, he was tall and burly, and his momentum was extraordinary.

Knowing that this was the famous Lord Wang Dou, the exiles knelt down one after another and begged, "Please take it in." ”

Wang Dou smelled the sour smell of these people who had not bathed for many days, and then glanced at these hungry people, from men to women, from old people to children, all of them had expectant eyes, and he asked, "Where did you come from?" Where are the people? ”

One of the old men came out and kowtowed, and he said in a trembling voice: "The little one came from the bosom, the family suffered a disaster, and the land tax was heavy, so he had to come out to escape the famine. ”

Immediately there was another prostration.

Qi Tianliang had been paying attention to Wang Dou's expression, and when he saw him nodding slightly, he stepped forward and said loudly: "Your Excellency is gracious and willing to take you in, but you need to remember the rules of our Jingbian Fort, when you come to the fort, you need to join all the military households, and those who don't want to be expelled immediately!" ”

"In the future, we will organize you to reclaim wasteland, and borrow oxen and plows and other things, and divide the fields in the future, and in the first year, the fort will exempt everyone from tax and grain. In the second year, one bucket of grain was levied per mu of tuntian to pay for the cattle and other silver that had been borrowed before. From the third year onwards, two buckets of grain will be levied per mu, are you willing? ”

These homeless people who came to the country have all heard the rules of Jingbian Fort, and in this current world, it is important to be able to eat and dress warmly, and where are the civilian households better than the military households? Not to mention that there was also their own land and cattle distribution, and after that, everyone could live a stable life, and those military households in front of them are examples.

At that moment, everyone kowtowed and said, "It's all up to the adults!" ”

Wang Dou asked Qi Tianliang to arrange for these people to go down, cook some porridge for these people to eat first, and then let them go to the river to take a bath, so that no bacteria would be brought into the fort. In addition, he instructed Zhong Rong to register these people one by one and give them military household posts, and they will be the military households of Jingbian Fort in the future.

Wang Dou arranged barracks and dormitories for these new military households, and after these people rested for a few days, he let them build the fort wall to work, with these new recruits, maybe the fort wall could be built faster, and after the fort wall was built, these new people would be organized to reclaim the wasteland.

In the end, Wang Dou took Zhong Rong's document and looked at it, and couldn't help but be taken aback, from the beginning of the year to the present, there have been more than 30 new military households and more than 100 people. Even the original military and artisan households, the current Jingbian Fort has hundreds of households, with a population of more than 400.

At present, the population size of Jingbianbao is already over Xinzhuang, which is on par with Dongjiazhuang.
