Yes. Outside the capital, four large battalions were erected one after another, and for two months, Liu Bei's soldiers and horses could be seen coming from the direction of Ruoxian County every day.

At first, there was only one big battalion, and Zhang Ren and other generals could still come out to fight with Liu Beijun, but with the continuous arrival of Liu Beijun, Cheng. Du's morale began to gradually decline.

When the second battalion was built, Liu Zhang did not dare to send troops out of the city easily, for fear that Liu Bei would take advantage of the situation to attack the city.

Such a move made the soldiers and civilians of Chengdu panic, did Cao Jun withdraw from the army? Otherwise, where would Liu Bei come from so many troops to besiege the city?

Of course, some people wonder if Liu Bei is bluffing? In fact, there are not so many centaurs? After all, if you really have so many people, it would be good to kill them directly, so why bother? Just sent troops to try a few times, but they were all driven back, which made all the capable people in the capital of Chengdu frowned, even if Liu Bei did not have an army of 120,000, there were a lot of people,

In Shuzhong in June, the sultry weather is like a steamer, so that the people in it have the illusion that they may be steamed at any time, but Liu Beijun in the barracks, this feeling is not strong, the air is not cool, but it is definitely not related to the heat, but if you get out of the barracks, it is simply two worlds, so that many soldiers once wondered if there was anything dirty in the barracks.

The attribute of being warm in winter and cool in summer, I don't know if it will make the soldiers suffer from heat stroke directly during the battle, or wait until the autumn and winter to talk about the war.

Liu Yi sat on horseback, thinking about these messy questions while hurrying, he didn't feel anything when he left the camp in the morning, but now as the sun gradually rose, the sultry feeling finally made Liu Yi realize how unfriendly the summer in Shu was to outsiders, and even had an urge to turn around and respond.

If you want to say how hot it is, it's just that this stuffy feeling, as if you are in a steam room, at the same temperature, this Shu land and the outside world are definitely two experiences.

"Is this self-inflicted?" Liu Yi looked at the surrounding scenery and sighed, thanks to his strong physique, an ordinary scribe, if he didn't adapt to the weather in Shuzhong, I am afraid that he would have suffered from heat stroke a long time ago.

"What kind of place are you looking for, sir?" The accompanying general was a Jingzhou general, and he obviously couldn't stand the sultry climate at the moment, and wanted to go back to the barracks, but he saw Liu Yi hanging around with a compass, but he never decided on the position he was looking for, and he was a little impatient.

"This kind of thing, you can't rush it." Liu Yi shook his head, as for what he is going to do, this time he is looking for a suitable place to build a village, Liu Bei Dingshu is already a stable thing, Liu Yi wants to take advantage of the fact that he is okay now, and apply what he has learned during this time to practice, and it can be regarded as an investment in advance. It is likely that for a long time in history, Liu Bei's governance will occupy a place here in advance and build a prosperous house, even if you don't live there, you can sit and wait for appreciation.

Just like places like Mocheng, Yueyang, and Fishing Township, as Liu Yi's industry, taxes naturally have to be paid, but except for cities like Yueyang, other places are all named by Liu Bei, which is Liu Yi's legal property.

So this time, Liu Yi also faked his public welfare and built a manor for himself.

In the past, when Liu Yi built a manor, he basically chose the land casually, and felt that the local environment was good, so Liu Yi started to build it directly, but since he came into contact with the more mysterious things such as the Five Elements Bagua and the corresponding attributes, Liu Yi is now ready to find a place with a particularly prosperous location for himself.

Seeing that the general was not angry, Liu Yi also had the heart to show off, and said with a smile: "According to the distribution of the world, this is a . The direction of the capital corresponds to the hexagram, the five elements belong to gold, and the qi of the soldiers is too heavy, so this place is elected as the land of the five elements of the qi and gold of the meager qi, so the five elements can be balanced, so this place can not be found randomly, this should be on the sky, and the five elements should be on the bottom. ”

"Then the gentleman can just do some calculations?" The general did not understand, according to this statement, although it is complicated, but into . It's all so big, it's not hard to find the right place, right?

"I built Zhuangzi because I wanted to live in people, and the place could not be separated. It's too far away, in addition, it is necessary to become a bureau of the five elements, this kind of location is not easy to find, the five elements are born together, and it is difficult to distinguish between the five elements in terms of technique, in addition, there are rivers and mountains and rivers around, such a place, it is difficult to find~" Liu Yi shook his head and said.

If according to the theory of the Five Elements Bagua, it is indeed not difficult to find as the general said, if this place is really a blank sheet of paper, it is too easy to find this kind of place.

But there is no place on the earth that will really be like a blank sheet of paper for you to smear, you have to combine the local topography to find the most suitable place to live, and the transportation is convenient, there are mountains and rivers to open up the wasteland, that is rare.

The general was ignorant when he heard this, and followed behind Liu Yi with a bitter face, drooping his head, not understanding why Liu Yi ran to build a Zhuangzi for himself during the war, why the lord would agree, and even the lord allocated money to Liu Yi to build a house.

Liu Yi naturally doesn't know what the generals think, even if he knows, he will only hehe, although he said that he was building a Zhuangzi for himself, but looking at Mocheng and fishing towns, how much profit can be provided to Liu Bei every year to know why Liu Bei is so generous to Liu Yi's move, not to mention that Mocheng and fishing towns bring not only huge profits, but more importantly, they can drive the development of the entire region, such as the fishing town established by Liu Yi at the beginning, the concept and structure of fish ponds, mulberry trees, and textiles have driven how much Jingzhou's economy, Even Jiangdong began to follow suit, knowing why Liu Bei would support Liu Yi's behavior.

This means that in the near future, once Liu Bei wins the . After sitting in Yizhou, you can quickly get a lot of funding.

What's more, in the blueprint of Shu that Liu Yi gave Liu Bei, this Liu Yi's new village is just the beginning.

Liu Yi is ready to use Chengdu as the foundation to establish a barracks specially used for training sergeants. The capital of the university, not the construction in the success. In the capital, according to Liu Yi's statement, it is to establish an independent school palace outside the city that specializes in cultivating talents in all aspects for Liu Bei, in addition to the printing plant that Liu Yi has always been thinking about, if Liu Bei occupies Shuzhong, according to Liu Yi's plan, since it is impossible to sweep the world in a short period of time, it is better to use the closed environment of Shu to promote printing and paper books.

Even if the sergeant of Shu is opposed, but it is only to deal with the scholars of a state and not to be the enemy of the corporal of the world, Liu Bei is a strong master, and the whole Jingzhou as a backing, and when the first batch of talents is gradually cultivated in Shuzhong, it can be promoted to Jingzhou, and at that time, Liu Bei will have enough background to do this, of course, Liu Bei may not be able to see it in his lifetime, but Liu Yi believes that he will be able to see it in his lifetime.

Regardless of the results of Liu Yi's promotion of this kind of paper book, but Cheng. The capital school can indeed bring great benefits to Liu Bei, at least in terms of talents, it can gradually get rid of the demand for the family, and it is impossible to eliminate the family, because the new people will gradually become new families, but these new families are indeed controlled by Liu Bei, so that in addition to the Jingzhou scholars, Shu sergeants, and Dongzhou scholars, a descendant talent team that is completely controlled by Liu Bei can be added, and at the same time, the talent team in Shu will be strengthened, so that Liu Bei has absolute control over the entire territory.

Liu Bei's needs are different from Liu Yi's direction, but in terms of interests, it is obvious that it is of long-term significance to Liu Bei's rights, so Liu Bei naturally fully supports Liu Yi's idea.

After looking for a day, he didn't find a suitable place, Liu Yi could only give up for the time being, go back to the camp to rest, and come out tomorrow to continue the search. were surrounded by four large camps, and Liu Yi set up a watchtower as high as seven zhang in each camp, Liu Zhangjun continued to retreat in the city, but if he wanted to get out of the city, Liu Bei would immediately be alarmed.

Of course, it's not really impossible to get around, and it is still possible to bypass the four battalions by going down from the city wall with a rope ladder overnight, but it is only suitable for sending people to run out to ask for help, although Liu Bei also set up a lot of open posts and secret posts around him, but this kind of sporadic stragglers are difficult to completely block, and there is no need to block them.

The longer the time drags on, the more beneficial it will be for Liu Bei. The more pessimistic the news he got, and even Liu Yi suggested that Liu Bei remove those bright posts and secret posts when the time is ripe and let Cheng. Liu Zhangjun in the capital can get more accurate information, psychologically, make the opponent desperate first, and then recruit Liu Zhang, it should not be a big problem.

After returning to the barracks, the whole person felt a lot more comfortable, Liu Yi remembered something, asked the soldiers who escorted him to return to the team on their own, and went straight to find Jian Yong.

"Is that pine still in the city?" Liu Yi sat opposite Jian Yong and went straight to the point.

If Zhang Song hadn't been cheated by his brother as he was in history, it would have been a good help, although Fa Zheng is also staying in Cheng. all, but the status is not high after all, and he can't even see Liu Zhang's face, no matter how capable he is, he can't show it if he can't see the main master, on the other hand, Zhang Song, as a driver in Yizhou, as Liu Zhang's secretary, can contact Liu Bei for a long time, and at this time, the role he can play is great.

"Don't you know?" Jian Yong looked at Liu Yi suspiciously: "Previously, Shiyuan sent a letter to Zhang Song, but he mistakenly sent it to his brother's mansion, and was killed by Liu Zhang. ”

Liu Yi remembered that when he first entered Shu, Pang Tong told him in private that Zhang Song was a repeated, but he could use it but not keep it, wouldn't it be a ghost of this thing?

Nodding with some regret, Liu Yi said a few words to Jian Yong, then got up to say goodbye, without Zhang Song as an internal response, it seems that he can only defeat all Liu Zhang's hopes and then send someone to say that Liu Zhang will be surrendered.
