"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission: Recruiting talents!"
"Mission completion reward: 50,000 reputation points, all attributes + 10. The system has automatically released the reward!"
Actually, Bai Feng did not care too much about the reward for this mission.
The most important thing was that he had recruited Yan Pu.
With Yan Pu by his side, he could go out without any worries.
At this time, Cheng Yu came to say goodbye.
Boss Cao had already sent people to pick him up. After all, Cao Cao needed to fight on many fronts. Without Cheng Yu, it would be difficult to fight.
Fortunately, Bai Feng had already told Cheng Yu to inform Yan Pu about the replacement work.
Yan Pu was indeed someone with experience. He also had a good understanding of Hanzhong. In just one day, he was able to quickly familiarize himself with the current Hanzhong.
On the second day, he directly began to inspect the paddy fields. His efficiency was very high.
As for the two generals Yang Ang and Yang Ren that he had unexpectedly obtained, their usefulness far exceeded Bai Feng's expectations.
This Hanzhong City actually had its own City Defense Army. However, they were all remnants of Zhang Lu's troops.
There were around 30,000 of them, which was not a small number.
Ever since he took over, they had been dragging their feet. They were not even willing to patrol the city.
Bai Feng was too lazy to care about them.
These guys were basically just waiting to die. After Zhang Lu was eliminated, they seemed to think that he would do something bad to them. Therefore, they used this method to try and attract Bai Feng's attention.
However, Bai Feng really did not have the time to care about them.
Furthermore, Cheng Yu was busy dealing with the farmers. Therefore, they were lazy every day.
When Bai Feng came back this time, he planned to directly dismiss them and let them go home to farm or fend for themselves.
In any case, it was better than taking food and not working.
However, to Bai Feng's surprise, after Yang Ang and Yang Ren took over, the city guards were patrolling the city energetically the next day. Bai Feng didn't know what method they used, but the city guards were patrolling the city energetically the next day.
It had to be said that professional matters should be left to the professionals.
Although Yang Ang and Yang Ren's martial prowess was average, they were still capable of dealing with these Hanzhong City Guards.
With this, Bai Feng had already completed two missions in the new round. The Reputation Points he had accumulated over this period of time had already reached around 350,000.
With these Reputation Points, Bai Feng could do whatever he wanted.
Therefore, Bai Feng exchanged for an enhanced version of the Qin Crossbow blueprint and gave it to Ma Jun. He asked him to modify the current ballista according to the blueprint.
Bai Feng was no stranger to this Qin Crossbow. Before the space-time reversal, he had used it to fight his way to Wu County. Naturally, it was very useful for sieging cities.
Correspondingly, they weren't any weaker when it came to defending the city.
When the three to five giant arrows were shot out, no matter what kind of shield or armor it was, it was impossible to block them.
Ma Jun was shocked when he saw the blueprint.
"Sir, this … this is a Qin Crossbow?!"
"Legend has it that the Qin Dynasty's crossbows were unparalleled in the world, but they have been lost for a long time. How did Sir get such a good thing?"
Bai Feng narrowed his eyes and thought about how to explain.
In the end, Ma Jun took the blueprint and went to the ballista.
"Good, good!"
"With this blueprint, I have a plan to modify the ballista!"
"I see! So this is how it was modified! No wonder the Qin Dynasty's crossbows are said to be top-notch even in the present day! "
Bai Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He was indeed a craftsman.
This Ma Jun was truly obsessed with his creation, to the point where he had completely forgotten himself.
"Take your time, Sir. Try to make these ballistas as soon as possible."
Bai Feng smiled and turned to look at the ballista.
Bai Feng requested ten ballistas, and each one was guaranteed to be equipped with a ballista and ten archers.
Currently, one of the ballistas was completed.
As for the other nine, although they weren't completed yet, they were all being built at the same time. The foundations were all completed, and they should be completed soon.
With the ballistas' speed, it would take at most a month to complete them.
The deadline for the mission was three months.
Ma Jun's speed was indeed worthy of his reputation.
…
At the same time, in Jingzhou.
Cao Chun was bored to death. He sat in front of the city gate and guarded it with the Ferocious Cavalry, just like how he guarded the city gate in Jingzhou years ago.
"General, should we go and check on Liu Bei's movements?"
"Wei Emperor is leading troops to attack Jiangdong. It's not good for us to be idle like this, is it?"
At this moment, a Ferocious Cavalry soldier said weakly.
This situation had been going on for two or three days.
When these soldiers first attacked Jingzhou, they had been slashing and charging on their horses almost every day.
Now that they were suddenly idle, they weren't used to it.
Cao Chun said unhappily,
"What can we do if we're idle?"
"Our Ferocious Cavalry is invincible on land, but what can we do on water?"
"That Liu Bei has been beaten back repeatedly. He's currently hiding in the city, afraid that we'll attack Jiaozhou directly."
"What's there to see?"
Cao Chun was also very sullen.
The Ferocious Cavalry were the best in the world. They were truly invincible on land. Of course, this was after the Formation Breaker disappeared.
However, today's Cao Chun was actually guarding the city gate like he was in the past!
However, Cao Chun also knew that while the Ferocious Cavalry could attack Jingzhou, they wouldn't be able to do anything to Jiangdong.
When attacking Jiangdong, they didn't bring a single cavalry. All of them were navy and army.
How to transport the cavalry's horses across the Yangtze River was a big problem.
Cao Chun only wanted to finish the battle quickly so that he could bring the Ferocious Cavalry back to Xuchang.
Every time he came to Jingzhou, nothing good would happen.
At this moment, a Ferocious Cavalry soldier hurried over and said,
"Report!"
"General, someone has come to visit. He claims to be from Hanzhong and has a message for you."
Cao Chun, who was originally enjoying the sun with his eyes closed, suddenly froze. He immediately straightened his body and said,
"What? From Hanzhong? "
"Could it be that Sir sent him?!"
That soldier continued,
"That person said that his name is Jiang Wei and that he has a letter for Sir."
Cao Chun was startled when he heard this.
"Beuyo? Quickly tell him to come find me! "
Cao Chun couldn't help but have a myriad of thoughts.
Could it be that something happened in Hanzhong and he needed his help?
But that didn't make sense.
Bai Feng's cavalry wasn't inferior to the Ferocious Cavalry. In fact, they were much stronger.
What kind of enemy could a lord who could kill four hundred thousand with ten thousand meet that he needed to call for reinforcements?
Just those Di people? That was impossible.
Could it be that there was a problem in Jingzhou?
