Purple Grade Mission: Build Hanzhong.
Within a month, set up enough troops to fend off the foreign tribes and build ten crossbows.
Mission Reward: 20,000 reputation points, 30% increase in Hanzhong reputation points.
Bai Feng's eyes lit up when he saw the mission reward.
Increased Hanzhong reputation points?
This was a genuinely good item!
Although Bai Feng had gained quite a lot of reputation points after killing the Qiang people, it was also depleting quickly.
A 30% increase was not much, but it was not a small amount either!
This would increase the efficiency of his automatic gain of reputation points!
Even if he did not have the 20,000 reputation points, Bai Feng would still do this mission.
Compared to the other two missions, this mission was not that difficult.
Bai Feng had to consider building crossbow platforms and assigning troops even without the quest saying so.
Although the Di people were weak in battle, they had a large population.
Moreover, the Di people were like the Han people. They were an agricultural people.
Unlike the Qiang people and the Xiongnu people, the Di people's population would grow quickly and they would not be as poor as the Han people's.
After all, they had to do it themselves.
The Di people were not ambitious in the beginning. They only wanted to be content with their territory.
However, after the new leader took office, the Di people had been harassing Hanzhong time and time again, causing frequent skirmishes at the border of Hanzhong.
That was why Bai Feng sent Li Cunxiao and Jiang Wei to teach the Di people a lesson.
The relationship between Hanzhong and the Di people became even more complicated.
Moreover, the foreign tribes had already heard about Cao Cao's expedition to the south. They would definitely want something.
Therefore, the crossbows had to be built.
During the battle with the Qiang people, Bai Feng realized the importance of the crossbows.
With this, it would be like a fortress in the future.
If they wanted to attack the city, they would have to ask for permission from the crossbows.
The difficulty of this mission was that it had to be completed within a month.
However, for the current Bai Feng, it was not a difficult task.
After all, Bai Feng had already invented cement. Not only was the crossbows made with cement strong, but they also did not require frequent maintenance.
The most important thing was that it was fast enough.
It was much easier than the traditional method of making crossbows.
Most of the Qiang people's crossbows were made of bamboo and were not very sturdy. A single fire would burn them all.
It was completely different if it was made of cement. The fire resistance of cement was far superior to that of bamboo.
Thinking of this, Bai Feng decided to prioritize this mission.
After that, he would look for Yan Pu.
As for the recruitment mission, it would be best if he could do it. If he couldn't, he could only give up.
Once the time limit was over, this mission would automatically be deemed invalid and he could accept other missions.
The next day, Bai Feng immediately summoned Liu Ba and ordered him to use cement to set up crossbows at the west gate of Hanzhong.
In addition, Bai Feng also sent his Black Armored Cavalry and Bing Province Wolf Cavalry to the west gate.
According to Liu Ba, the Di people had been here many times recently.
Hanzhong's defense was extremely weak, but they still had Ma Jun's grenades.
Moreover, the Qiang people were afraid of Li Cunxiao and only wanted to test the situation. After seeing the grenades, they became even more cautious and did not dare to send a large number of soldiers.
As such, Hanzhong was more scared than in danger.
However, just because they did not send soldiers before did not mean that they would not do so in the future.
If they did not do anything and the Di people sent out all of their soldiers, it would be terrible if Cao Cao's main forces did not return.
Now that the task of building the crossbow was settled, the next thing to do was to find Yan Pu.
Yan Pu's disappearance was after Zhang Lu's death.
In history, Yan Pu and Zhang Lu surrendered to Cao Cao.
However, Zhang Lu did not surrender and was killed by Cao Cao. As such, Yan Pu did not surrender and went missing.
However, Bai Feng was certain that Yan Pu was living in Bashu or Hanzhong.
After all, he had been under Zhang Lu for a long time and many people in the Cao camp knew him.
As such, it was difficult for Yan Pu to escape. Moreover, he did not have the energy to escape from Hanzhong.
Since he knew the general direction, Bai Feng sent out a hundred armored soldiers to search for Yan Pu's whereabouts.
Especially in the secluded corners of Hanzhong, it was most likely to find Yan Pu.
Da Qiao also hid in the same way.
After that, Xiao Qiao was also in Hanzhong. He had been in Hanzhong for so long and he did not notice her at all.
"Sir, why are you looking for Yan Pu?"
"That person is long gone. Moreover, he is one of Zhang Lu's remaining subordinates."
"Could it be that Sir is afraid that he will try to take back Hanzhong?"
Bai Feng naturally left this matter to Jiang Wei. Jiang Wei was puzzled after hearing Bai Feng's words.
Bai Feng shook his head and said, "No.
This Yan Pu is a talent and he is very good at governing a city. "
"Especially this Hanzhong. He has been governing this place for a long time."
"This time, I am looking for him so that when I go to war in the future, he can look after Hanzhong."
Jiang Wei was even more puzzled.
"But, this Yan Pu is one of Zhang Lu's subordinates. Even if we find him, he might not follow Sir, right?"
"Sir, you helped Wei Emperor destroy Hanzhong."
"Even if he follows Sir, I'm afraid … I'm afraid that this guy will suddenly decide to take back Hanzhong."
Bai Feng smiled faintly and shook his head.
"Don't worry, he won't."
"From the previous battle with Zhang Lu, Yan Pu is a smart person. Unfortunately, Fa Zheng and Zhang Song of Bashu were angered by Liu Zhang."
"Otherwise, we might not be able to take Hanzhong."
"Since he is a smart person, he should know what the people of Hanzhong are thinking."
"If he agrees, he will definitely not want to take back Hanzhong. This is tantamount to suicide."
"At that time, even if I agree, I'm afraid that the people will not agree."
After saying that, Bai Feng gestured at the people walking on the streets outside the governor's office.
Jiang Wei's face was filled with astonishment.
"Sir, you are right."
"However, I am still a little worried …"
Bai Feng waved his hand.
"Don't worry, when he is brought here, I will keep him if he is suitable."
"If he is not suitable, even if he wants to come to Hanzhong, I will not agree."
"Remember what I told you. Search carefully. Don't forget any small details."
"Since he wants to hide, he will not be easily found by us."
"Yes."
Seeing this, Jiang Wei could only accept the order.
Although he was still a little confused, he still did as he was told.
