Chapter 618 : Chapter 299: Whereabouts of Gan Ning (1)
Chapter 299 Gan Ning’s whereabouts
On that day, Liu Biao appointed Huang Zhong as general to command the Seventh Army.
Under the command of Huang Zhong, rewards and punishments were clearly defined, and the momentum of the Xiangyang army suddenly increased.
"How could this happen? Then it would be meaningless for me to rescue Zhang Yun and other generals." In Cai Mansion, when Cai Mao heard Liu Biao's appointment, he was stunned.[
The purpose of his return after rescuing Zhang Yun and others was to rely on the power of these people in the army to infiltrate the army and make his power even greater.
But along the way, Huang Zhong emerged. This man carried out drastic reforms, broke up all the forces at the middle levels of the army, and re-appointed officers at all levels.
The original power disappeared. The generals Zhang Yun and other generals he took back at risk were basically useless. This was equivalent to helping Lu Su conquer Wenpin and Wang Wei in vain.
Cai Hao suddenly felt the urge to vomit blood, as if he had not picked up the sesame seeds and lost the watermelon.
………………
Xinye City.
During this period, Liu Feng scattered many secret places in Jingchu, and a total of 200,000 gold had been gathered in Xinye City. The construction of Xinye City began.
Fourteen thousand field soldiers and countless strong men joined in to expand the outer city wall.
According to the plan, Xinye City will become a huge city twelve miles long from east to west and eight miles wide from north to south. In such a huge city, more than 100,000 people will live in the city.
The civil servants under Liu Feng and the families of military generals would also live in the inner city.
A city of this size is not only rare in the world, but it is also the first-class city today except for a few big cities such as Xudu and Chang'an.
It is very suitable for the status of Crown Prince Liu Feng.
Similarly, the original governor's palace in the inner city was expanded to a certain extent and became Tian Feng's exclusive official residence for the governor. Lu Su chose another mansion in the city and hung a plaque saying "Yang Wei Zhonglang's Palace"
.
Liu Feng lived with Lu Su in this new official residence.
On this day, Liu Feng, together with Lu Su, Tian Feng, Wenpin and others, inspected the city's expansion site.
Following Wenpin and Wang Wei's family members, all came to Xinye. Wenpin and Wang Wei also took up their respective posts. Wang Wei led 6,000 troops to guard Fancheng, and Wenpin led 6,000 troops to follow Lu Su to guard Xinye.
At this moment, the expansion site is in full swing. There are countless field soldiers and strong men hitting the ground with thick stones. This will make the land more solid and the built city wall will not collapse easily.
The city walls of this era were all made of earth. It was a rammed earth wall with several layers of city bricks wrapped around it. This kind of structure was not steel-reinforced concrete.
If it is not handled properly, it may collapse in a few years.[
"When the expansion of this city is completed, we can use it as the center to spread outward and dominate the world." Liu Feng was surrounded by Lu Su, Tian Feng, Wenpin and others. He inspected the construction site and pointed at the bustling surroundings.
Scene, he said proudly.
After the battle in Fancheng, he will definitely rise in Xinye. This city will not only always be his royal city, but also the foundation for the development of his power.
Lu Su, Tian Feng, Wenpin and others around him were also very happy. Especially Wenpin, as a newly joined general, Wenpin felt firsthand the simplicity and ability of Liu Feng's forces.
The composition is really very simple, a general named Lu Su who is in charge of the overall situation, and several powerful generals. Tian Feng, the governor of Xinye County, and Yi Ji, the governor of Nanxiang County.
