"What do you think of this song, little Zimou?"

Cai Yong, a famous scholar in the late Han Dynasty, stayed in Du Fu's Thatched Cottage and specially invited Chu Tian to listen to music in Du Fu's Thatched Cottage.

In order to appease this group of celebrities and to better conquer the disciples of Xun Yu, Xun You and other aristocratic families in the future, Chu Tian took the time to come to Du Fu's Thatched Cottage and talk with the celebrities.

"This song is very wonderful, I wonder who composed it?"

Chu Tian heard the sound of the guqin coming from behind the screen. Although he was tone-deaf and couldn't tell whether it was good or bad, he was right as long as he praised the other person.

I don't know why, but the music actually has a relaxing effect.

Cai Yong replied: "This is the guqin played by my little girl."

"I wonder if you have the idea of ​​working in a band or thatched cottage..."

Chu Tian heard that Cai Yong had brought Cai Wenji to Langya Kingdom from the war-torn Chenliu County, so he took up the idea of ​​Cai Wenji.

What he covets is the bonus that Cai Wenji brings to the territory.

The bonus that a talented woman brings to the territory will undoubtedly be very high.

"this……"

Considering that he is old, it seems that Cai Yong should find a job for his daughter. Otherwise, he may be helpless in the future.

"The orchestra may be a bit noisy and has a strong market atmosphere, so it would be good to work in Du Fu's Thatched Cottage and devote yourself to the study of literature. You can also work in the orchestra and perform one or two performances a month."

If the band can use Cai Wenji's brand name, it may be able to attract more business. Rare things are more valuable, and performing one or two performances every month will actually make Cai Wenji's worth higher.

"This depends on my daughter's wishes."

Cai Yong hesitated for a while, thinking that Langya country had female military generals and was prosperous. She respected the literati, and if she served in Du Fu's thatched cottage, it would not be a mistreatment of her daughter.

The sound of the guqin behind the screen suddenly stopped. Cai Wenji came out from behind the screen and saluted her father and Chu Tian: "Zhaoji has seen Langya Prime Minister, General Fubo, and famous people gathered in the thatched cottage. Zhaoji is just afraid that joining the thatched cottage will damage the reputation of the thatched cottage."

reputation."

Chu Tian looked at Cai Wenji, she looked rather frail, about fourteen or fifteen years old, and was not married yet.

"No way. In the future, the thatched cottage can be divided into a women's pavilion, specifically for women to take up posts and educate the people."

In order to attract special talents, Chutian divided Du Fu's Thatched Cottage into two parts. The main body is the literati represented by Du Fu, Cai Yong, and Lu Zhi. There is also a special female pavilion that can train female students. If talented girls are recruited in the future, such as

Li Qingzhao and Yu Xuanji can both take up positions in the Nu Pavilion to educate the people and make Xiacheng a cultural center.

"Will the Cottage really set up a women's pavilion? If so, Zhao Ji's willingness to serve in the Cottage can also play a role."

Cai Wenji exclaimed softly, she did not expect that Chutian would set up a special organization to let talented women show their effectiveness.

Chu Tian thought to himself that it was more than just a little effect.

Even if Cai Wenji does nothing, as long as she serves in the official organization of Lord Xia City, her bonus will be effective.

Du Fu Thatched Cottage is a cultural building directly under the jurisdiction of the Lord's Mansion, and it is also a building built by Chu Tian. After Cai Wenji had the idea of ​​working in Du Fu Thatched Cottage, Chu Tian could already see Cai Wenji's panel.

【Name】:Cai Yan

[Talent]: Special talent (talented woman)

【Age】:15

[Commander]:10 [Force]:10 [Intelligence]:75 [Politics]:45 [Charm]:93

【Favorability】:52

【Character】: Unlucky

[Characteristic 1]: Unfortunate talented woman (S-level exclusive trait, territorial cultural prosperity, influence +13%, easy to gain sympathy from men; when playing music, it can make the listener feel peaceful)

[Characteristic 2]: Han Yuefu Poet (A-level characteristics, territorial cultural prosperity, influence +10%, when the same characteristics are superimposed, the effect decreases)

[Characteristic 3]: Calligrapher (A-level trait, when serving as a teacher, the probability of special talents among students increases)

No wonder Chutian felt a sense of tranquility when he listened to the music just now. It turned out to be Cai Wenji’s own effect.

This is the third unfortunate hero of the Chutian forces. The first two unfortunate heroes are Li Guang and Du Fu.

Because of Chutian's protection, the fate of these unlucky people was changed.

Li Guang made many military exploits, beheading Xiao Jian, the former Prime Minister of Langya, and shooting Dong Zhuo's Cavalry Commander Hu Zhen.

The thatched cottage was named after Du Fu. Du Fu now became a famous person in Langya Kingdom and had no worries about food and clothing.

Cai Wenji was originally going to marry a short-lived husband, and then was robbed by the Southern Huns. Now Cai Wenji also entered Du Fu's thatched cottage, and her fate changed.

Leaving Cai Wenji in Du Fu's Thatched Cottage, Cai Yong, who has nowhere to go, will probably stay in Xiacheng.

"My lord, General Wu Dun who is stationed in Jiqiu County sent an urgent report that the Xuzhou coalition cavalry appeared outside Qiu County, numbering about 10,000. They are trying to cut off the grain road between Jiqiu County and Kaiyang County, and may launch a surprise attack on Xiacheng.

And the villages and towns near Xia City!"

Chu Tian was about to brush up his favorability with Cai Yong, Cai Wenji and his daughter so that Cai Yong and Cai Wenji could serve the Langya Kingdom better, when the soldiers from the lord's palace came to inform Chu Tian of important information.

"Ten thousand cavalry... Mr. Cai, Miss Cai, I have military affairs to attend to. Come and visit the thatched cottage when you have time."

Chu Tian knew that military affairs were urgent and could not delay for a moment.

Cai Yong said: "Let's go. The war is in chaos. I didn't expect that Langya Kingdom is also at war. There is no peace in the world."

Cai Wenji bowed humbly: "I hope General Fubo can defeat the powerful enemy."

Chu Tian hurriedly returned to the Lord's Mansion and immediately spread out the map of Langya Kingdom to determine the route and purpose of the enemy's 10,000 cavalry.

As a member of the army, Fang Xuanling immediately assisted Chu Tian in making decisions.

"Xue Li, has Zhao Yun returned?"

"Not yet."

"How many cavalry are there in the city?"

"There are only Hua Mulan, Li Guang's 600 high-level cavalry, 2,000 light cavalry, and heavy cavalry troops. In addition, the 4,000 light cavalry recruited using Xiliang war horses are not high enough."

"The enemy invaded the Kou Langya Kingdom with 10,000 light cavalry. They must have moved quickly. The heavy cavalry troops were of no use at all. Only the light cavalry could drive them away. If these 10,000 light cavalry dared to penetrate deep into the enemy's territory, the leader might be Yang Ye.

, Yang Wudi."

Chu Tian thought of the reputation of the Yang family generals and was worried about Yang Wudi being in the opponent's camp.

Yang Ye was a famous cavalry commander and had superior military strength. He often used ten thousand light cavalry. Chu Tian felt a headache for Yang Ye.

Yang Zhong took the initiative to lead the cavalry to invade the Langya Kingdom and carried out active defense tactics, which ruined Chutian's plan for a decisive battle with the Xuzhou coalition forces in Tancheng.

Active defense by the defender is more difficult to deal with than passive defense.

"We can only send Hua Mulan and Li Guang to lead the light cavalry to drive away Yang Ye. Zhou Yafu leads the Xiliu Camp and the Shesheng Battalion to support Hua Mulan and Li Guang. The newly recruited light cavalry will also go into battle and will become elite through the baptism of fire."

Chu Tian had many generals under his command who could be dispatched, but Hua Xiong's heavy cavalry was useless against Yang Ye's light cavalry because they could not catch up with Yang Ye.

Li Xiuning's Detachment of Women is one of his trump cards, and Chu Tian does not intend to use it lightly.

So Chu Tian still used a group of veteran-level generals to encircle, suppress and expel Yang Ye and the 10,000 light cavalry led by him who had entered the Langya Kingdom.

"Xue Li and Zhao Yun will immediately go to support Hua Mulan and Li Guang after they return to Xiacheng. It's best to capture Yang Ye alive. If nothing can be done, you can kill him."

Chu Tian considered that Yang Ye was difficult to deal with, so he sent all the cavalry to encircle and suppress Yang Ye this time.

Chu Tian had the idea of ​​​​recruiting the generals of the Yang family, but Yang Ye was a loyal general like Zhao Yun and Gao Shun. I am afraid that even Fang Xuanling would not be able to make him surrender after being captured alive, unless his lord was captured alive.

.

"Where is the target that Yang Ye's 10,000 light cavalry plans to attack..."

Chu Tian guessed Yang Ye's attack direction on the map.

The places Yang Ye may attack include Liangshan Town, Xiacheng, Yunlai Town, and...

"My lord, an enemy ranger has appeared in Shangbi Town!"

"What he wants to fight is Shangbi Town?"

Chu Tian was shocked.

There are gold mines and iron mines in Shangbi Town. There are high-end blacksmith shops and military workshops in the town, which continuously provide gold, weapons and armor to Xia City. It is an important place for Xia City.

Although higher-grade iron ore and silver mines were later discovered in Yangdu County, Ju County and other places, and the importance of Shangbi Town declined, Shangbi Town still had a lot of iron tools. If Shangbi Town was conquered by Yang Ye,

Langya Kingdom's losses were considerable.

"Let Hua Mulan, Li Guang, and Zhou Yafu go to support Shangbi Town...wait..."

Chu Tian fell into silence. He suddenly thought that Yang Ye would not be so reckless and forcefully attack Shangbi Town.

Shangbi Town is now a third-level town. In order to protect the important Shangbi Town, Chutian also built a stone city wall and more than a dozen wooden arrow towers in Shangbi Town. In addition to the difficult terrain of Shangbi Town, thousands of miners were temporarily recruited to guard the town.

The city was difficult for cavalry to attack.

Fang Xuanling had the same idea as Chu Tian at this time: "This may be Yang Wudi's plan to lure the enemy, or it may be a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain."

"It's really tricky to meet a first-rate general."

Chu Tian couldn't help but sigh.

Yang Ye had the advantage in military strength and took the initiative everywhere, while Langya State was quite passive due to insufficient military strength.
