Chapter 181 Ten Thousand Horses

Horses play an unrivaled role in this era. Transportation, combat, and even plowing are indispensable. Ordinary families cannot afford to raise a horse.

Daxing City is now booming in four-wheeled carriages, and the demand for horses is very high, which has caused the price of horses to rise sharply. However, the horses used to pull carts are just ordinary horses, truly expensive war horses.

War horses are different from ordinary horses. War horses must be specially raised, and there are clear requirements for height, speed, load, and training.

A war horse that can go to the battlefield cannot be trained overnight. It takes a long time and costs a lot.

The biggest production of Jincheng is war horses, which is an important horse herder for the imperial court.

This is also the reason why Hao Yuan was eager to eliminate the bandits, but he actually attracted Xue Ju, the hungry tiger.

Only after the elimination of Xue Ju, the special bandit suppression troops successively wiped out the bandits.

Hao Yuan now responds to His Highness Dai King’s request. When His Highness Dai King’s orders to war horses, Hao Yuan personally sent someone to select 10,000 best war horses.

Before the bandit suppression work was completed, ten thousand war horses had been transported to Daxing City.

Daxing City Royal Horse Supervisor

"Herod, Herod!" The horse neighed for a long time.

At this moment, thousands of horses in the Imperial Horse Prison were galloping, with great momentum.

"Good horse!"

With so many war horses in front of him, Yang You couldn't help but shout.

"Your Highness the King of Dai, these war horses are all first-class and good horses, and they are all breeds of good horses in the Western Regions. Even the Turkic horses may not be as good as these." The horse official from Jincheng said respectfully.

"Um!"

Looking at the tall horses in front of him, Yang You nodded with satisfaction.

Behind Yang You, the military generals also looked hot.

"King Dai! Are these war horses for our military?" Qu Tutong looked surprised.

Qu Tutong had a special emotion for these Longxi military horses. The battle of fame was in Longxi. At that time, he was ordered to investigate the case of hidden horses in Longxi, and found out that 20,000 hidden horses were sensational across the country.

Behind him, Yin Shishi Shi, Sang Xianhe, Pang Yu, Yao Junsu and other military generals were also full of hope. With these ten thousand war horses, the combat effectiveness of Daxing City will surely rise to a great level.

After the Yinshi Division repelled Liang Shidu, because of its disadvantage in cavalry, it ordered Song Laosheng to watch Liang Shidu in Diaoyin County, and led half of his troops back to Daxing City.

At this moment, when he saw so many war horses, Yin Shishi's eyes shone. If he had had these 10,000 war horses before, Liang would definitely not be able to escape his pursuit.

Yang You shook his head and said, "There are ten thousand horses in Daxing City. I got these ten thousand horses in the name of the Luoyang crisis."

After Yang You finished speaking, the eyes of the military generals suddenly dimmed.

The situation in Luoyang is now critical, and it is indeed the time to need these war horses the most.

Although Yin Shishi Master was unwilling to accept it, he still said: "His Highness Dai King takes into account the overall situation. It is actually a blessing for the empire."

Other generals also praised them.

However, Yang You changed his tone: "Of course, we can't just do good things in Daxing City?"

The generals looked at Yang You in confusion, a little puzzled.

"Now Luoyang City is in material shortage, and I guess it can't raise these 10,000 war horses. According to me, 5,000 horses are a suitable number." Yang You smiled slightly and cut off five,000 horses as soon as he opened his mouth.

Yang You pointed to the horse officer from Jincheng and said, "Pick out the five thousand best horses."

"Yes!" Ma Guan replied readily.

"Your Highness the King of Dai is wise!" The generals were delighted.

Who can’t help but look at Yang You with admiration. Who can’t like the King of Dai who can benefit the military?

"If Daxing City adds another 5,000 cavalry, no enemy will dare to invade Daxing City." Yinshishi said proudly, and with his momentum of victory just now, he was full of arrogance.

"Yang You, look at me riding a horse!" Yang Jier shouted from afar.

I heard that a large number of horses were transported over, and Yang Ji'er had to follow him, so Yang You had to let her come over.

Yang Ji'er was riding a docile little mare, and she was yelling excitedly when she was riding a horse for the first time.

A group of eunuchs stared at each other nervously, fearing that Yang Ji'er would be injured.

Seeing Yang Ji'er happy, Yang You smiled knowingly.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, Before Lord Hao came, he searched for various horse ranch farms and finally found a peerless horse, and specially presented it to Your Highness, Your Highness," said Ma Guan Xian.

"Oh!" Yang You was surprised.

Although there is horse riding in the etiquette of the Dai King, Yang You has never ridden a real good horse.

Yang You couldn't help but look forward to it. Could it be that it is comparable to those famous horses in history? If you don't want to compare with Chitu, just like Lu!

The horse officer left and soon led a black horse over.

This black horse is extremely tall, half a head taller than an ordinary horse. Its four hooves are strong, and its waist and abdomen are full of strong muscles. It is obvious that it is an abnormally majestic horse.

"Good horse!" The generals were knowledgeable and could tell at a glance that this horse was extraordinary.

What is even more commendable is that this horse is extremely docile and does not struggle at all in the hands of the horse officer.

"I have reported to Your Highness, Your Highness, this horse was born by Your Highness in the horse farm. You have just turned three years old and can travel thousands of miles a day. What's even more difficult is that you have a very docile personality and are actually a good horse in all of thousands. It is the most suitable for Your Highness, Your Highness," said the horse official respectfully.

Indeed, if it weren't for the gentleness of this horse, Hao Yuan wouldn't have dared to present this horse to Yang You.

If the horse he offered suddenly went crazy and injured Yang You, he would be very guilty.

Yang You was also extremely depressed. He thought he was going to fight for three hundred rounds and subdue a peerless horse, but he didn't know that it was a perfect horse.

But thinking about his small body, he sighed and felt that this horse was very suitable for him.

Yang You stepped forward and gently stroked the dark horse. Sure enough, the dark horse did not resist at all, and was very close to Yang You.

Yang You didn't think he was so domineering. Instead, he secretly complained in his heart that this horse was either born weak or had a big nerve.

"I'll call you Xiaohei from now on!" Yang You said softly.

Under the service of everyone, Yang You turned over the horse, Xiao Hei stood steadily, without moving at all. After adapting for a while, Yang You then urged the horse to gallop.

Feeling the whistling wind in his ears, Yang You was extremely satisfied. Xiao Hei was indeed extremely divine. The horse was fast. What is even more commendable is that Xiao Hei ran very smoothly and did not feel any bumps at all.

Yang You ran a few more laps before he could enjoy it.

“Good riding!”

"His Royal Highness Dai is indeed both civil and military."

"It has a few demeanors like the emperor!"

Although Yang You's riding skills were average, the generals also cooperated and cheered loudly.

Yang You nodded proudly, and automatically ignored Yang Ji'er's ridicule. Can her words be true for a little girl riding a mare?

Yang You turned over and got off the horse and bowed proudly to thank him.

"God of all, please go and choose one!" Yang You said. It is better to have fun alone than to have fun.

"Your Highness Xie Daiwang!" The generals were overjoyed, and immediately rushed towards the horses like a hungry tiger pounced on food.

"This jade flower tests me!"

"This General Tan Chima is here to ask for it!"

"I have long been fond of this Red Maned Horse, and no one can rob it."
