"The soldiers and horses in the city are mobilized frequently, and there must be another battle."

"This time Lord Zhou Mu is going to attack Taishan County. It is said that the three major lords of Taishan County once attacked the Langya Kingdom and were hated by Lord Zhou Mu, so there is this crusade."

"I just need an excuse to conquer Taishan County."

During Chutian's expedition, the residents of Xiacheng discovered that there were a large number of horse-drawn carriages transporting grain and grass to the front line every day. The crusade against Taishan County requisitioned 100,000 local warriors from the Langya Kingdom and thousands of horse-drawn carriages and mule-carts. There was an endless stream.

Xia Liang needs to continuously dispatch food and grass to the front line, and Chu Tiancai has no worries.

She and Li Xiuning were patrolling the city to ensure the security of Xia City, followed by a group of government officials.

Players and civilians in the city couldn't help but look at Xia Liang and Li Xiuning who were patrolling. Just a glance was pleasing to the eye.

"Some players in the city carry weapons, which may affect public security. Therefore, their weapons must be confiscated and the Lord's Mansion shall have full jurisdiction over public security."

Li Xiuning pointed at the players with swords on their waists on the street.

Xia Liang also noticed this problem: "It seems that it is necessary to issue a 'Knife Hunting Order' to prohibit civilians from owning weapons and armor. In the past, there were remnants of the Yellow Turbans of Langya Kingdom, bandits, and horse thieves everywhere. It is understandable that civilians have weapons. But

Nowadays, in addition to the wars between princes, all kinds of bandits are suppressed by the government, and civilians with weapons will become a threat and may even be used by the enemy."

"The weapons owned by many aliens are even more precious than those of ordinary soldiers, and they may not be willing to hand them over."

"Civilians whose weapons have been confiscated will be given certain compensation. Those who are unwilling to hand over their weapons will be expelled from Xiacheng. They have assets in Xiacheng, so they will not be reluctant to hand over their weapons. We can also replenish the arsenal by collecting weapons."

"yes."

When Xuzhou Mu personally attacked Taishan County, the lord's palace posted a notice requiring all civilians to hand over all weapons within a month. This government order was called the "Knife Hunting Order."

The Sword Hunting Order caused a violent reaction in Xia City, and free players who were accustomed to wearing swords were unwilling to hand over their swords.

However, after the Detachment of Women and the Xiacheng Yamen suppressed dozens of recalcitrant free players, the vast majority of players chose to compromise. In their hearts, they still recognized the control of weapons.

Chutian is working hard to calm down the troubled times, and the Sword Hunting Order is one aspect of calming down the troubled times. When people in the world no longer need to go out to carry weapons, it means that the troubled times are basically over.

For more precious weapons, the Lord's Mansion purchases them at low prices, and players who are unwilling to sell them to the Lord's Mansion can also sell them themselves.

"The lord's palace is collecting weapons. From now on, only the government will own weapons in Langya Kingdom. This may not be a good thing."

"Xuzhou Mu is young and promising... Could it be that in this world, the only way to stop war is to use force?"

"There is no other way."

Lu Zhi talked with Zheng Xuan, a great scholar who came to the Eastern Han Dynasty. They studied in the same school and knew each other.

With Lu Zhi, Cai Yong and others settling in Du Fu's Thatched Cottage, the current Xiacheng has become a gathering place and refuge for the great Confucians in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Wars are going on everywhere, and Xuzhou has been relatively calm. At least Xiacheng has no possibility of letting the enemy invade the city.

Zheng Xuan recently heard that Lu Zhi and Cai Yong were in Xiacheng of Langya Kingdom, not far from Beihai Kingdom, so he came to Xuzhou Langya Kingdom from Beihai Kingdom in Qingzhou to meet them.

Lu Zhi said: "Xuzhou Mu has reorganized the Han Yuefu in Xiacheng and expanded the scope of the Han Yuefu to include poetry, songs, music, dance, etc."

"To be honest, I have recommended my little girl to take a job in the female pavilion of Han Yuefu, so that she will have someone to rely on in the future."

Cai Yong stroked his beard, resigned from office at an old age and sent Cai Wenji to Han Yuefu, and he finally solved his worries.

The Han Yuefu was an official institution, and Cai Wenji entered the Han Yuefu to engage in the compilation of literary and artistic works, and belonged to the ranks of officials. Although the status of the Han Yuefu was not high among the institutions under the lord's government, she was an official after all.

Chu Zimou was a man of meritocracy and did not even spare women.

"We old guys don't have a few good years to live. Why don't you stay in Xia City, and we can study the classics together. The lord's mansion will pay you a salary every month, so you can have no worries about food and clothing."

Lu Zhi tried to retain Zheng Xuan.

Chu Tian treated these great Confucians of the late Han Dynasty well. As long as they could bring bonuses to the territory, it was nothing if Chu Tian spent a small amount of money to worship them.

Zheng Xuan hesitated a little: "This place is also in chaos..."

Lu Zhi said meaningfully: "But Xia City has never been captured."

From the perspective of Lu Zhi, who was good at using troops, it was already a miracle that Xia City had experienced several wars in the past few years without ever falling.

"My friends are here, I might as well live here."

Zheng Xuan heard that living in Xiacheng would free him from worries and allow him to concentrate on studying knowledge, so he came up with the idea of ​​​​living in Xiacheng.

A city that has never been sacked by enemies means that there is no need to worry about the loss of manuscripts.

Diao Chan, who was stranded in Xiacheng, a music studio under the jurisdiction of the Han Yuefu, asked Wu Qingcheng if she could be recommended to the Han Yuefu.

Wang Yun sent her and her group to Langya Kingdom for refuge, but instead Wang Yun was robbed by Dong Zhuo and taken to Chang'an.

Now Diao Chan is almost penniless and needs to work.

Whether it is the Han Yuefu or the music studio under the Han Yuefu, it is a suitable job for her.

"My sister came just in time. Han Yuefu recruits talented women from all over the world. With my sister's talent, although I can't say that she is accomplished in writing, her dancing is definitely not bad. I can recommend you to Han Yuefu. Maybe you don't need to go to Yuefu.

Fang is as public as her sister."

Wu Qingcheng takes great care of Diao Chan.

"Han Yuefu? Han Yuefu also recruits women? And women of my status..."

"With your talent, you are not an ordinary citizen. Well, let me try to recommend it to the Han Yuefu. If you can go to the Han Yuefu to teach dance, it would be the best."

"Um."

The eighth-level Han Yuefu building is about to be completed. As an important government office, Xia Liang personally intervenes in the matter.

The Han Yuefu is quite special. Except for a few minor officials who serve as clerks, the rest of the members must be talented people who are proficient in music or writing.

"Cai Yong, Cai Yan, and Du Fu are all willing to join Han Yuefu, and there are also some recommended talents..."

Xia Liang checked the list of personnel for the upcoming Han Yuefu, and some of them were recommended.

"Diao Chan...?"

As a player, Xia Liang certainly knows who Diao Chan is.

Unexpectedly, Han Yuefu would attract many special talents living in Xiacheng.

"I want to meet this Diao Chan."

Xia Liang was worried that someone would risk Diao Chan's name and join Han Yuefu, so he planned to check it himself.

Diao Chan was summoned by Lang Ya Xiang and was flattered, so she accepted the invitation and came.

She thought Langya Xiang was a man, but it turned out to be a female official.

"Are you Diao Chan?"

Xia Liang carefully looked at the young Diao Chan, but she already looked like a beautiful woman. According to the legend, the "closed moon" in "Closing Moon and the flowers" describes Diao Chan.

"The little girl's acting name is indeed Diao Chan."

"I can agree to your entry into Han Yuefu, but you need to agree to one condition."

Being cold in summer is inevitably selfish.

"Can you really enter Han Yuefu?"

"As long as you free up some time every month to teach me how to dance after you arrive at Han Yuefu."

Xia Liang sees that Diao Chan is only thirteen or fourteen years old, so he can lead him on the right track, and he can also learn dance skills from Diao Chan, and maybe he can please Chu Tian.

Diao Chan agreed easily: "Of course it's not a problem."

"Do you have a place to live in Xia City? According to the lord's mansion's allowance for special talents, with your rank, you should be able to buy a private house in Xia City soon."

Xia Liang did not lower Diao Chan's allowance because of her young age, but instead paid her allowance according to the treatment of top talents.

As one of the four beauties, the bonus Diao Chan brings to the territory is self-evident.

Moreover, Diao Chan seems to have special characteristics. Even though as a woman, Xia Liang, I feel pity for Diao Chan.

"Sir, are you serious?"

Diao Chan did not expect that not only could she enter Han Yuefu, but she would also be regarded as a top talent.

"Mr. Xuzhou Mu is a meritocracy. As long as you stay and work in Han Yuefu, you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life."

…

"Ding! SS-level achievement mission - four beauties have started."

Chu Tian, ​​who was fighting in Taishan County, suddenly received a reminder that the achievement of "Four Beauties" was actually activated.

Chu Tian had no impression of conquering any of the four beauties.

There is only one possibility, and that is that there are four beauties serving in the lord's mansion.

"Is it Han Yuefu?"

Chu Tian thought of the Han Yuefu that was being built. If a talented girl joined the Han Yuefu, she would be indirectly loyal to Chu Tian, ​​and she could also start the achievements of the "Four Beauties".

When you return to Xiacheng, you must see which of the four beauties joined Han Yuefu.

"Nan Wuyang County has surrendered."

Chu Tian led the army to advance behind the cavalry. Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun, Hua Mulan, and Joan of Arc's cavalry had already penetrated deep into the enemy territory. Chu Tian's army was in the rear to attack the city and take over the second county seat.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui were taken by Chu Tian to join the army. The two of them joined forces to make more accurate judgments.

Du Ruhui deduced the march progress of the vanguard cavalry: "According to the itinerary, the three cavalry regiments should be less than a hundred miles away from the Taishan County headquarters."
