When Chu Tian was patrolling the village, he saw Li Ergou, the elder of the village, and asked him earnestly, “Elder Li, do we have any skill books or magical weapons in our village?”

Elder Li frowned for a long time, and finally replied slowly, “There is a magical weapon in our village.”

Chu Tian’s eyes lit up. “Bring it to me!”

He just asked casually. He didn’t expect that the village really had magical weapons?!

Chu Tian currently didn’t have any skills. As for equipment, he only had a bronze-level iron sword. If there were magical weapons in the village, maybe he could increase his strength!

After a while, Elder Li dragged a rusty iron sword over. He only had a 5 in Strength, so he panted as he said, “This is the best sword in our village!”

“This is the best sword in our village?!”

Chu Tian looked at the iron sword’s features.

[Weapon]: Rusty fine iron longsword (silver grade)

[Status]: Damaged

Not only was the sword just silver grade, it was broken!

“Elder Li, maybe we should keep this best sword in the village. Think of it as a treasure of the village.”

Chu Tian patted Elder Li’s shoulder sincerely, and let the poor Elder Li drag the iron sword back to where it was.

Major construction was underway in Xia Village to build thatched huts or wooden houses for the new refugees.

In addition to the refugees, the newly recruited Hua Mulan also needed a residence in Xia Village. Hua Mulan’s residence was close to the Lord’s Mansion, so as to help prevent damage to the stone tablet there.

The type of house built for Hua Mulan was a wooden house since you couldn’t exactly let a royal-level commander live in a thatched hut…

Wooden houses needed wood to be built. Villagers volunteered to build the wooden house for Hua Mulan, who was guarding the village, so there was no need to pay salaries.

It was day 5. There were now 200 residents at Xia Village. They needed 40 more villagers.

When the village got upgraded to Level 2, Chu Tian would consider going to the nearby Langya City. 

Langya City was a large city. Currently, it was still a neutral area, with the army of Tao Qian, the Governor of Xuzhou Prefecture, maintaining order. If you wanted to buy supplies, you had to go to Langya City. Chu Tian also wanted to know how the other players were doing.

“Village chief, we’re in trouble!”

Elder Li hurriedly ran into the lord’s mansion and woke up Chu Tian, who was lying in bed thinking about life.

“Elder Li, what’s the matter?”

“The Yellow Turban… Yellow Turban soldiers are here! There are at least 60 of them!”

“Sixty Yellow Turban soldiers?!”

Chu Tian grabbed the iron sword by the bed and hurriedly followed Elder Li to the entrance of the village.

The wooden gate at the entrance of the village was closed tightly, with 80 local soldiers gathered behind the wooden fence. Hua Mulan, who temporarily succeeded the Bronze Hero Zhao Qi as the head of local soldiers, arranged them in a line, with the hunters on the sides. The rest of the local soldiers were armed with spears, sickles, and pickaxes; they were the main troops.

While the wooden fence was only a Level 1 defense construction, it was still a defense project, giving the hero and soldiers hiding behind the fence an additional point.

[Command]: Hua Mulan

[Troops]: Local soldiers of Xia Village

[Grade]: Grade 1 foot soldiers

[Head Count]: 80

[Average Skill Level]: Infantry (Level 1)

[Morale]: 71/100

[Attack Power]: 5+1.25

[Defense Power]: 5+1.25+1

[Speed]: 5+0

[Special Effect]: Speed of morale decline -50%

[Characteristics]: Those who win the hearts of the people win the world.

Because of the addition from Hua Mulan and the wooden fence, the defense power from these local soldiers of Xia Village had reached an astonishing 7.25, and the high morale could be maintained for a long time.

There were 60 Yellow Turban soldiers right outside the village!

These bandits either had yellow turbans tied on their heads or shoulders, and they looked ferocious. Since they had probably looted the surrounding villages, they had been replenished, so they didn’t look jaundiced or too thin.

The few Yellow Turban soldiers in front were even riding on horses.

The warhorses were very expensive.

There weren’t very many cavalries in the plains because the cost of maintaining cavalry was high.

When Chu Tian saw the warhorses, he looked greedy. If they could capture these horses, whether they were used for cavalry in the future, or sold for a nice sum of money, either choice would be great.

A minor leader of the Yellow Turbans was carrying a big sword with a ghost head. He was less than a hundred steps away from the village entrance. “Open up and let us in! Or we will destroy the village and leave nothing alive!”

The 60 yellow turban soldiers held up a variety of weapons and shouted, “Destroy the village, leave nothing alive!”

The local soldiers of Xia Village sweated profusely.

They were just farmers. Never mind 60 ferocious bandits, even a couple of Yellow Turban soldiers were enough to terrify them.

“Don’t be afraid! We can keep them back!”

Chu Tian encouraged these local soldiers. He noticed that after the Yellow Turban soldiers gloated, the fighters’ morale had dropped from 71 to 67 points.

This was with the help of Hua Mulan’s S-class characteristic, ‘Great Heroines’, which reduced the morale drop by 50%, otherwise the morale of the local soldiers would have dropped to 63 points.

As Level 1 foot soldiers, these local soldiers’ morale dropped so quickly. They really weren’t too reliable…

Chu Tian looked at the Bronze Hero. “Zhao Qi, didn’t you say that Shangtian Village had killed more than a dozen Yellow Turban soldiers, and there were only about 40 of them left?”

“Sir, I don’t know what’s going on. Maybe there are other Yellow Turban bandits nearby. That little leader is the one who destroyed our Shangtian Village!”

Zhao Qi’s palms were sweaty. His strength was not as powerful as the little Yellow Turban leader. He had finally settled down in Xia Village, but the Yellow Turbans had come to attack again.

Chu Tian looked at the little Yellow Turban leader again, wondering if he was a Special Hero or just a random Ordinary Hero with a system refresh.

Before ‘Feudal Lords’ had its public test, Chu Yian had seen information about the Yellow Turbans of the NPC forces on the official game forum. The Yellow Turbans had a lot of Special Heroes.

The most famous heroes of the Yellow Turban Army were of course the three brothers: Tiangong General Zhang Jiao, Digong General Zhang Bao, and Rengong General Zhang Liang, as well as Guan Hai, Zhou Cang, Liao Hua, and Pei Yuanshao, etc.

If their adversary was a Special Hero, it’d be great.

Chu Tian, “Who is at the door?”

“I’m Xie Lao San of the Yellow Turban Army. If you know what’s good for you, give up all your food and women! Or I’m gonna tie you up and drag you around on the street with a horse!”

The little Yellow Turban leader kept cursing. When he saw Hua Mulan behind the wooden fence, he suddenly became ravenous. “That girl is a pretty one. Brothers take the village! You can have the other girls. That one is mine!”

“Loot money, loot grains, loot women!”

When the Yellow Turban soldiers shouted these dated slogans, their morale climbed!

Nothing increased these Yellow Turban soldiers’ morale faster than money, grains, and women.

The little Yellow Turban leader lifted the ghost-face sword overhead as the 60 Yellow Turban soldiers started to attack the village.

They had no form or order, nor did they need them. Their own combat power was enough to handle the local soldiers.

“You can’t handle this woman.”

Chu Tian shook his head.

The Royal-Level Commander Hua Mulan aimed a hunting bow at the little Yellow Turban leader. 

Her strength was 81 points. The bow was stretched so tight that the ordinary hunting bow was trembling violently. Because of Hua Mulan’s tremendous strength, the hunting bow was almost about to be destroyed.

It was not fun to be hit by an arrow from a commander with 81 in strength.
