Chapter 9 Guzang City

[Crescent Halberd (Blue): Sharpness 3, Hardness 3, Force +1, Additional Attributes: Armor Break: Causes additional damage to armor.]
Guo Hao touched the new weapon and was reluctant to let it go. The crescent halberd perfectly matched his aesthetic taste and also had the armor-piercing attribute, which was perfect.
"Basic Archery" is just right for training young and strong men. Although they perform very poorly in combat, they are the only troops under his command after all.
Guo Hao was also hoping to train this group of young and strong men into archers.
The next day, Guo Hao took out the property he had obtained and distributed it to the soldiers who were about to leave. Both sides were very happy, and the military and civilians lived in harmony.
When hugging the village chief farewell, Guo Hao also stuffed a small gift into the village chief's pocket. The two smiled at each other and tacitly did not mention the matter of the Hu man's head and mount.
After seeing off the soldiers, Guo Hao couldn't wait to start counting the harvest.
"Count the spoils!"
Isn't the purpose of war to fight for profit? Otherwise, who would have the time to fight others?
In order to prevent the villagers from keeping the spoils for themselves, Guo Hao personally supervised the villagers to count the spoils that were piled up together.
It's not that I feel sorry for those few possessions, but the wind of selfishness must not be allowed to grow. A thousand-mile dam is breached by an ant hole, so we must guard against it.

Looking at the list of spoils in his hand, Guo Hao couldn't believe it. It looked bulging, but it turned out to be just some copper coins and food.
Apart from their valuable war horses, this Hu army was extremely poor.
"In this battle, 76 Hu people were killed, and a total of 76 war horses, 3 taels of gold, 160 taels of silver, 36,478 copper coins, 76 scimitars, 24 spears, 76 pieces of leather armor, and 132 shi of grain were seized."
After counting the spoils, Guang Lao was a little excited. Unlike Guo Hao who was greedy and unsatisfied, Guang Lao understood the value of these spoils. It meant that Beifeng Village could finally survive a complete winter and no one would starve to death or freeze to death anymore.
Guo Hao collected the weapons and war horses together and distributed the food to the villagers on the spot. With this food, the village could have a good winter.
After the village's main safety and food problems were solved, Guo Hao immediately struck while the iron was hot and began to plan the layout of the village according to the drawings he had designed offline.
In Guo Hao's plan, Beifeng Village will become his most solid base in Liangzhou. As long as the time comes, sweeping across Xiliang is no longer a dream.
Guo Hao took a large sum of money and planned to go to a nearby big city to exchange some things.
Before leaving, Guo Hao arranged everything in the village and let Guang Lao take charge of the overall situation on his behalf.
Wuwei County, the county seat was Guzang.
It was also the first time that Guo Hao saw a real large city. The large cities in the game were no worse than skyscrapers. The magnificent momentum made Guo Hao's scalp tingle.
The city wall is about twenty meters high, equivalent to a seven or eight- , and the flag of the Han Dynasty is hoisted on the top of the city wall.
There was a long queue of people entering the city in front of the city gate, including local civilians and merchant caravans. Several teams of soldiers guarding the city were guarding a huge wooden box and collecting different amounts of city entry tax from each person.
Using his village chief's official seal as proof of identity, Guo Hao passed through the city gate smoothly and saved a city entry tax.
Before Guo Hao found a place to live in the city, someone had already set his sights on him.
"Snapped"
A big hand patted Guo Hao on the shoulder. Guo Hao rolled over tactically as a conditioned reflex and almost took out his weapon and stabbed.
"Don't be nervous, brother. I mean no harm."
Guo Hao turned around and saw a mysterious man wrapped in a black robe.
"Why are you hiding in broad daylight? What do you want from me?" Guo Hao asked back dissatisfiedly, breaking free from the mysterious man's hand.
"Hehehe, it's a job requirement, it's a job requirement." The mysterious man smiled and didn't care about Guo Hao's attitude at all.
"You are a player too? What do you want from me?" After Guo Hao calmed down, he noticed something was wrong with the mysterious man. No matter how he looked at him, he was definitely a player.
"I'm an intelligence dealer. Seeing that you're so powerful, I couldn't help but want to come over and make friends with you." The mysterious man rubbed his hands and smiled awkwardly.
"I'm not interested. Go away and don't follow me." Guo Hao took a look at the warhorse in his hand and knew what this mysterious player was planning. He just wanted to get the news about the warhorse from here.
Players have just arrived and the price of warhorses is high. Owning a warhorse is basically a symbol of being a master among the player community.

According to the information Guo Hao learned on the forum, it is harder than climbing to the sky for players to buy a war horse. Not only do you need to be rich, but you also need to be famous. If ordinary players go to buy a horse, no one will pay any attention to you.
"Hey, don't be anxious, brother. You are new to this city and must be unfamiliar with it. Wouldn't it be great if you and I could share intelligence?" Upon hearing Guo Hao's refusal, the mysterious player became anxious on the spot.
In no time, the mysterious man took off his black robe and revealed his true face. He was a young man who looked less than 20 years old and judging by his temperament, he might still be a student.
"Brother, I have a lot of information. If you want, I can give you some information first." The young man's face was full of urgency.
Seeing the young man's look, Guo Hao became interested. He needed a war horse so urgently, so he must have something big to gain.
"What's your name?" Guo Hao pinched his chin and asked with interest.
"Brother, my name is Li Wan Li Fengxian!" The young man reported his name in the game. Guo Hao thought he would foolishly report his real name.
"Do you want to know where my warhorse came from?" Guo Hao pointed at the warhorse and carefully observed the expression on the young man's face.
"Yes, big brother, I'll give you one first. You can ask me anything you want. There is no news in Wuwei County that I don't know." The young man looked confident.
"Then do you know how much a war horse can be sold for in Wuwei County?" Guo Hao thought about it and planned to get some useful information from this silly boy.
"Of course I know. The most common warhorse in Wuwei County costs one thousand taels of silver!"
Guo Hao calculated in his mind that he only had two taels of gold and one hundred taels of silver, which was the contribution from the Hu people. Who knows how many people's blood was stained on it? In the end, his entire fortune was only enough to buy a small half of a warhorse. (1 tael of gold = 100 taels of silver = 10,000 copper coins)
"You already know how valuable war horses are, so how do you have the courage to share information with me?" Guo Hao deliberately pretended to be teasing a child.
"Our eldest sister is the commander of the city defense of Guzang City. There is no information in Guzang City that we don't know. As long as you are willing to share the information with us, you can get any information you want." The young man was obviously getting excited and started to expose his own family background.
"Commander of city defense?" Guo Hao was a little surprised. There were indeed many heroes in the world. His own small village was not enough for him to be proud of.
"You're trying to trick me!" Before Guo Hao could continue, the young man came to his senses and looked at Guo Hao angrily.
Guo Hao shamelessly added the young man as his gaming friend, acting as if nothing had happened.
"As long as you tell me if there is any place in Guzang City that can improve the attributes, I will tell you where the war horses came from." Guo Hao looked at the young man named Li Wan seriously.
"This is easy. There is a martial arts hall in Guzang City. As long as you pay money, you can go there to learn martial arts. There is also a private school. As long as you pay money, you can go there to learn literature. If all else fails, you can go to the mission hall to accept missions, and then catch thieves and beat bandits. These can all improve your attributes."
The young man told Guo Hao the information carelessly. Looking at Li Wan's innocent look, Guo Hao couldn't bear to break the innocence of a young man, so he gave up the idea of ​​robbing his fellow thieves.
"Go to the border and fight the Hu people. If you win, you will get a war horse!"
After saying this, Guo Hao walked away swaying, leaving the young man standing there with an excited look on his face.
