The government agencies at all levels within Xiangyang City were the first to be built, and Liu Bei has been staying in the city for a while and has not gone out, so he is not very clear about Liu Yi’s actions during this period.

But when he and everyone came outside the city to watch Xiangyang City, the feeling suddenly became different.

Looking around, the rows of ferocious tiger heads on the top of the city looked here fiercely. Even when Liu Bei and Guan Yu, who had been through the battlefield for a long time, even when facing those tiger targets, they still felt unspeakable palpitations and were very light, but they did exist. People like them all had this feeling, and that was even more so for ordinary soldiers.

In the open tiger's mouth, the riding Pojun crossbow was vaguely visible, and the cold and cold light made people feel like they were on their backs.

When Liu Bei and Guan Yu were bored, they also discussed how to crack the enemy if they used this kind of Pojun crossbow to defend the city. They also had some ideas. However, at this moment, facing those Pojun crossbows completely carved by tiger heads, any ideas became a joke.

Guan Yu was right. In fact, it was enough to make a baffle. There was no need for a tiger head, but when you were really standing outside the city, you could clearly feel the deterrent power brought by the tiger head.

Behind the account, the rows of dragons were as shocking as the visual impact of the dragons roaring the sky. Liu Bei knew that it was a bracket, but he didn't know that, and thought that it was nothing to install flashy carvings on the city wall.

It’s hard to say that I feel anything, but when I am standing outside the city and facing the city wall, the unspeakable sense of depression makes people feel a little weaker in momentum, as if I am facing a city, but a nest with countless beasts.

"What do you think Yun Chang?" Liu Bei watched for a while and suddenly looked at Guan Yu.

"The situation won before the battle." Guan Yu looked at the city wall and said slowly for a long time. When Liu Yi was carving, he was not understanding the meaning and felt a little suspicious of taking off his pants and farting. But when he was really standing on the opposite side, Guan Yu understood a little. Liu Yi did not do these things for the sake of being beautiful for no reason.

"With such a city, why not be afraid of Cao's army!" Liu Bei was also very happy and couldn't help laughing.

For such a majestic city, how many troops are Cao's army preparing to deploy to break through?

Guan Yu and others also stroked their beards and smiled. Although the Xiangyang City in front of them was not big compared to Chang'an and Luoyang cities, they were strong enough to be regarded as the best in the world.

"According to Bo Yuan's words, Xiangyang City will be finished work by the end of the year, but I don't know what the scene will be?" Pang Tong shook his head aside. He also made some efforts in the design of Xiangyang City. At that time, Liu Yi had often harassed him with letters. Now, seeing the establishment of Xiangyang City, I feel a little proud in my heart.

Liu Bei nodded and led everyone down the Han River. From a distance, he saw that the construction was also started on Fancheng. He said curiously: "There are also fortifications in Fancheng?"

Guan Yu looked at it and nodded, "Boyuan wanted to build a bridge to connect the two cities of Xiangfan. In this way, no matter which side Cao's army attacked, it would be equivalent to fighting against the two cities of Xiangfan. In addition, Boyuan also made some improvements to the defense of Fancheng."

If Cao Cao built such a bridge, it would not be easy for Guan Yu to destroy the two cities of Xiangfan at the beginning. However, according to Liu Yi, with the construction capabilities of the other princes at present, even Cao Cao would not be easy to build such a bridge. At least it would be difficult to build in a short period of time. However, if the floating bridge was built, it would be easy to be destroyed. As for the one built by Liu Yi, it was said that Liu Yi designed thirty-six independent circular arches to support each other, perfectly distributing the weight of the bridge.

Anyway, Guan Yu didn't understand it at that time, but he just knew that the bridge could support a lot of power and not collapse because of it. At this moment, the general outline of the bridge had already emerged. From a distance, it was made up of two huge arches. There were also separate small arches between the two arches, which looked quite beautiful.

"Can this bridge pass?" The group came to the arch bridge, and the official in charge of supervising the worker quickly came up and greeted Liu Bei and others. Liu Bei pointed at the arch bridge road.

"Go back to the lord." The official shook his head and said, "The cement and stones on the bridge have just been laid and are waiting to solidify at this moment. If you go up at this time, you may destroy the cement."

"Solidify?" Liu Bei didn't quite understand, but since he couldn't, he didn't force it. He just thought the bridge was beautiful and wanted to go up and see the scenery of the Han River. However, this kind of thing can be done in the future. At present, he will continue to walk forward with everyone.

After passing Xiangyang, there are large areas of farmland, and you can see small manors, which are spread out in this wilderness ten miles or even further apart.

Liu Yi took everyone to worship Liu Biao, and came to a manor freely. It was the busy farming moment. The water wheel, which was about two meters high, slowly rotated, leading the stone mill in the mill to rotate by itself. Someone was constantly filling the grain next to it.

"These are all farms designed by Boyuan. Using water wheels to use water power to automatically push the mill, saving a lot of effort. The most important thing is that this thing is not difficult to make. Even if there is no Tiangongfang participating, ordinary craftsmen can make it." Pang Tong saw Liu Bei's curiosity and explained with a smile: "And some fertilizers in this farm can also be used to feed livestock, poultry, and many people with land in Xiangyang have been doing this during this period. Some money will ask Tiangongfang people to come out to help build the farm. There are hundreds of farms in Xiangyang alone. I heard that Boyuan promoted this farm in Changsha, Guiyang and other places and reclaimed a lot of fields. Only the four counties in Jingnan. The wasteland that has been reclaimed in recent years has been as large as one million hectares. In recent years, Jingzhou's population has increased a lot, but there has never been a grain shortage. Boyuan made great contributions."

Liu Bei nodded after hearing this. Liu Bei has indeed not lacked food and supplies in recent years. This is also an important reason why he can do a good job in politics and encourage childbirth.

According to the estimates of Liu Yi, Zhuge Liang and others, although Jingnan is remote, it actually has great potential. With the current farming level, if these four counties are developed, the population of the five counties in Jingnan will be expanded to 6 million. It is far from saturated at present. Perhaps there will be no day of saturation in this life, but for this reason, Liu Bei's power can always maintain a growth trend.

This is also the reason why Liu Yi was so nervous about Jingnan, even more than Jingbei. After all, Jingbei’s potential has reached the limit that can be reached at the moment, and it is impossible to experience explosive growth even if it develops. Jingnan is different. As long as he is willing to invest enough financial and manpower, Jingnan is a treasure land. It can be seen from the growth rate of Jingnan’s population over the years. And according to Liu Yi, in another thirty or fifty years, Jingnan will usher in an opportunity for a surge in population.

"After this battle, I will ask Bo Yuan to return to Shuzhong and serve as the young mansion!" Liu Bei looked at the farm in front of him and nodded with a smile.

The position of the young mansion is the most suitable position for Liu Yi, and the contributions Liu Yi has made over the years are enough to make him the Nine Ministers.

Pang Tong nodded after hearing this. Although Liu Bei, the position of the Young Mansion, is a bit outspoken now, it is basically a foregone conclusion that Liu Bei will be the king after the war is over. Liu Yi is ranked as the ninth minister at that time, and no one within the entire Liu Bei group dares to object. After all, it is not worth mentioning the credit. The connections that Liu Yi has accumulated over the years are enough to shut up those who dislike Liu Yi.

"Didn't your brother want Bo Yuan to pacify Nanzhong?" Guan Yu looked at Liu Bei with some confusion. He had heard that Liu Yi would go to Nanzhong, although he also felt that Liu Yi was the most suitable for him to serve as the young mansion.

"Boyuan is still in charge of General Annan, so he can go to pacify Nanzhong first and then come back to report his duties." Liu Bei smiled and said, "Is the Young Mansion? Although he is ranked as the Ninth Minister, if it were not for someone like Liu Yi, it would be a false position. He has already left this position for Liu Yi. He believes that Liu Yi can show his strength again in Nanzhong.

Guan Yu nodded when he heard this, looked at Liu Bei and said, "Brother, I have something I want to ask my brother to agree to."

"Oh?" Liu Bei looked at Guan Yu and smiled, "You and my brother have been together for many years, so why should you say something other than that? Yun Chang has something to say, so why should you say it bluntly."

"Xing'er is thirteen after this year. When Bo Yuan entered Nanzhong, Xing'er was old and reached the age of time. Instead of being protected by me, it would be better to follow Bo Yuan to Nanzhong." Guan Yu was silent for a moment.

"Wouldn't it be better to let Xing'er be by Yun Chang's side?" Liu Bei looked at Guan Yu with some surprise.

"Originally, Yu also thought so." Guan Yu shook his head and said, "But I should know what's so easy."

Guan Ping followed Guan Yu at that time, with his martial arts and abilities, but he was still difficult to stand alone. Later, he went to Jingnan with Liu Yi, but after returning, some changes occurred. He no longer obeyed Guan Yu and had his own opinions. Although Guan Yu was quite angry at the time, the facts later proved that Guan Ping had gradually gained the ability to lead a county since then, and performed very well in the Battle of Hanzhong.

The key to this should be Liu Yi. Therefore, Guan Yu hopes to throw Guan Xing to Liu Yi in advance. He is very capable, but he is not very good at teaching people. He can teach martial arts and other things, but how to be independent is obviously better at Liu Yi.

"Do you know..." Liu Bei suddenly smiled when he heard this: "When he went south, Yide also asked the same thing, wanting Baoer to follow Bo Yuan."

Guan Yu: "..."

He suddenly found that his third brother looked reckless, but his mind and vision were quite lively. You must know that Guan Yu’s decision has been available for a long time. After all, isn’t it a disguised saying that he has no ability to teach his son? This third brother Zhang is simply cruel!

"Don't worry, second brother." Liu Bei smiled and said, "Boyuan had asked me for someone before, so I asked Xing'er and Bao'er to follow Boyuan to experience it, and then gave him Wei Yue, Chen Ergou and Liu Sandao together. He also used these people."
