Sun Jian arrived at Xia Pi and went directly for the city's prefecture, where he showed the former prefefct of the city the paper He Jin gave him. The prefect packed his bags and left, while Sun Jian asked messengers to talk to each of his retainers. He wanted to talk to each one of them personally and be sure that they wouldn't abandon him at his time of needs.
The first messenger went straight to Han Dang's place. "Master Han Dang, Lord Sun Jian wants to see you at the city's prefecture. Head there as fast as you can."

Xia Pi 1120 hours May, 184
Han Dang was among the leading portion of the procession, unopposed, marched its way through the suddenly quieted streets of Xia Pi. The crowd of peasants and those of the everyday market shifted to create a valley splitting the population as the party rode and walked through, silently observing soldiers with suits of armor jiggling as they shuffled along. Yigong felt the tension in the air as the gaze of numerous curious and simultaneously confused minds pierced his temples with wide-eyed gazes and grimaces.
Sun Jian had already led the way to the courtyard of the prefecture, and Han Dang naturally had a hand shoot upward to signal the troop to come to an abrupt halt. They were obedient, reining in their horses and steadying momentum from the ceaseless run, the last of the line at last filing through the build of common folk, waving the massive banner of crimson. Inscribed upon it, embroidered in dark contrasting thread, was the single character that struck fear in the bold hearts of the entirety of the realm.
"It's... It's Lord Sun Jian!"
"Heavens bless us! We are relieved of that insufferable abuser!"
Each and every man and woman, even child, raised a fist, raised a tool, raised a symbol of devotion and respect for the tiger of the south, gratefulness above all sentiments washing over their previously burdened souls. No longer would taxes impose a threat on life, no longer would they starve or roll in the abysmal depths of abject poverty. No longer would the land need any other dynasty save that of the Sun.
A grin flashed the corner of Han Dang's mouth as the young private dashed through the double doors of the prefecture, nearly bashing through the gates of the courtyard in his amateur haste.
"Master Han Dang, Lord Sun Jian wants to see you at the city's prefecture. Head there as fast as you can."
Gesturing to the messenger to be relieved of his duty, Yigong responded instantly in dismounting from the tawny steed, guards steering it away in safety while the general strode across the brief journey of gardens into the rather miniature architectural complex.

OOC: the package thing is just for RP-wise, if you want to say anything about that, be free, but it's not really necessary. I like including these things in my RP posts, so get used to it!

Two hands linked together in submissive gesture, a fist punching into the other palm, while Han Dang bowed his head. The recognition of his talent was naturally an occurrence unlikely to be skipped, but still the general was grateful for the efforts of his lord of witnessing and realizing his ambitious potentials as well as the lord's own. Which was really what set Sun Jian apart from the rest, and had attracted Yigong under the crimson banner to serve.
"Thank you, my lord. It shall be done, and victory will soon be claimed by the Sun army." With the brave statement, Han Dang made his withdrawal from the prefecture, gracefully accepting the massive package emerging from one of the side rooms with two worked arms, several bags of grain carried in a procession of wheelbarrows. Surely the lord had always had a heart for generous giving among his genuine, personal ambitions.
Leading the line back through the gates, he flicked his hand up high in the air as a final signal to the soldiers to have a quick break for what little time they had before the preparations for the first campaign would begin in full force.

After Han Dang went away, Sun Jian followed in a while, after signing some papers and receiving a representative of the people of Xia Pi, asking him to develop the city in a better way than the previous prefect. Sun Jian replied, saying that Xia Pi has turned the capital of his forces and of course he wouldn't let it fall in a hole. Saying that, he dismissed the person and went to the garden, asking his guards to summon some privates there. It was training time. TASK Summary: Sun Jian wants to train Xia Pi's troops. If you're in Sun Jian's army, go ahead and join! Rewards:- Sun Jian's Forces morale increase; - Gold Reward = 500

TASK FINISHED Results:- Sun Jian's Forces morale increases. Sun Jian didn't really stay to train his troops; he ordered an elite guard to do the job. He walked around the garden to think what he would do against the Yellow Turbans. He turned around, walked inside and asked for a servant to get some food for him. He locked himself inside his office and only opened the door to get the food. "Alright, I didn't want to be here in the first place. What happens to the Han isn't of my interest. But now that I'm here, I have to make it clear to everybody why." He stood up, punched the table, opened the door and headed to the garden, where the troops were still training. He shouted: "We march! Let's seize Xiao Pei and show the Yellow Turbans how wrong they are! We'll make them regret ever being born!" Then he spoke to the guard: "Gather everyone round and provide them with the armaments from the Barracks. I want everyone to be at the city's gate until tonight. Xiao Pei is defenseless right now. This should be an easy win." Saying this he walked away with his sword in hands.
EDIT: Alright, I talked to Simon and the task is annulled. I confess I didn't understand the task system he proposed at first, but now I got it. Just ignore it and continue with the RP
