Chapter 131 Taming the Mount
Liu He walked around the two horses and looked at them again and again.
Although these two horses are still young, they are majestic and have almost perfect muscle lines. As for their expressions, they are not the same as ordinary war horses. In front of other war horses, they are really outstanding and extraordinary!
The two horses noticed the arrival of Liu He and the other two, raised their heads and neighed, with a clear and loud voice, especially the light yellow horse. It neighed and resounded throughout the sky, shocking the several ordinary war horses next to them.
"Divine Horse, it's indeed a divine horse!"
The three of them felt itchy and stepped forward to try to touch the two horses.
However, as the saying goes, "wildness is hard to tame", although these two horses were captured by Zhang and Su families through great hardships, they were not ordinary people after all. How could they surrender so easily? Even if they were tied into the stable, they still moved around, not allowing the three of them to touch them at all, and seemed irritable.
"Brother, these two horses seem to be difficult to tame. However, with my riding skills and martial arts, it is natural that I can ask my brother to pick one first, so that Gongyi and I can see our horizons!"
Guan Yu clasped his fists and said. Liu He was also a little moved when he heard this, but soon thought of another thing.
It is already February now, and it is less than a month before the Yellow Turban burst. I have already prepared my weapons and armor, but I just lack good mounts.
Liu He already has the Black King. Although it will take some time before he can ride, it is not very urgent.
In contrast, Guan Yu and his men needed better war horses than him, especially Guan Yu. His Spring and Autumn sword skills must be equipped with a divine horse and a good horse to exert greater power.
Liu He grabbed Guan Yu and Cheng Liang's hands and smiled and said, "You don't have to be humble. Brother Yu already has the Black King. You should ride these two horses by two brothers."
"Brother..." The two of them wanted to say something, but Liu He pretended to be angry and glared at him.
"Okay, since my elder brother said that, I'd better obey my orders than respect!"
The two of them clasped their fists and smiled, then looked at the two BMWs, their eyes full of joy and even fanaticism.
The war horse is comparable to the second life of a military general, and its importance is even greater than that of weapons and armor. No famous general does not love good horses, let alone the world-class generals like Guan Yu and Cheng Liang!
"Two sons-in-law, please!"
The servants of Zhang and Su families made a gesture of invitation. Liu He stood in the distance and looked at them with anticipation.
"Third brother, come on!"
With Guan Yu's order, the two stepped into the stable, one of them holding a horse.
Guan Yu grabbed the maroon horse, while Cheng Liang caught the pale yellow horse.
How could these two horses stop? They move left and right, and neigh, but they are still young after all. If they were adults, maybe Guan Yu and Cheng Liang could not do anything, but now they are not the opponents of these two great generals.
Soon, the two of them turned over on the horse's back. The two of them were not willing to be outdone, rushed out of the stable, jumped in the back garden, trying to throw them off their backs.
But Guan Yu and Cheng Liang were already strong, and together with practicing equestrian for many years, how could they easily fall?
Two men and two horses, in the back garden of the county government, they "fighted" for more than two minutes, but none of them showed signs of fatigue.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, it's true that a divine horse! If an ordinary war horse has to do this, he will have no strength now, but these two young horses are still so lively, which shows how fierce they are!"
An old man from the Zhang family next to him stroked his beard and said in admiration.
"Haha, brother Shibian, why do you only see the courage of these two horses? If I see it, the two sons-in-law are even more powerful. Even Fan Kuai may not be able to live again!" said another old man.
When the old man from the Zhang family heard this, he nodded frequently: "Not bad, the head of the family has always had a very accurate vision. These two sons-in-law are indeed among the people, and County Magistrate Liu is an unparalleled hero in the world!"
After hearing their praise, Liu He politely said a few words, and then continued to focus on his two brothers.
Two divine horses, one red and one yellow, jumped and ran no matter how they jumped and ran, Guan Yu and Cheng Liang clamped their legs tightly on the horse's belly, grabbed the mane on the horse's neck, and gritted their teeth and refused to let go.
Finally, after a while of tossing, the movements of the two horses began to slow down, and obviously they were exhausted. Liu He's eyes lit up, knowing that this was the critical moment to tame these two divine horses!
Guan Yu and Cheng Liang also saw this, used the last bit of strength on their bodies, and squeezed their legs hard!
"Go!" With a loud shout, the two horses were caught in this, which really hurt. In addition, they had consumed 70% to 80% of their physical strength, so they finally couldn't do anything else.
The two of them slapped their horses and squeezed their belly. The two horses neighed in a low voice and rushed out towards the door.
After riding a horse on the street for a short circle, the two returned to the back garden. With their hands tied, they could only hear a loud neighing sound. The two horses stood up. After falling down again, they turned over and dismounted, stroking the bodies of the two horses with cares on their faces. At this time, the two divine horses also seemed much more at peace.
"Congratulations, congratulations to the two sons-in-law for successfully taming these divine horses! It will take nearly half a year for these two horses to become adults, and their foot strength will be stronger by then!"
The followers and servants of the two families came up to congratulate them.
"The two virtuous brothers have the help of this divine horse, which is like a tiger with wings. Ask who else is our brother's rival in the world? Haha!"
Liu He was also very happy. Guan Yu and Cheng Liang got such a divine horse, which was no different from him.
The two of them were also very excited. While giving gifts to everyone, they continued to caress their beloved horse mounts without letting go.
"Mr. Liu County Magistrate." The old man from the Zhang family who had just spoken bowed and said, "This is my disciple. He has learned the art of horse racing since he was a child. Now he is better than blue than blue. According to the instructions of the head of the family, we will leave him in Langdiao County to take care of the war horses for the Magistrate Liu."
After saying that, a man about twenty-six or seven years old walked out from behind him and bowed to Liu He: "The villain's surname is Mo, his name is Da, and his courtesy name is Wende. He has met County Magistrate Liu! In the future, he will definitely take care of all the war horses for County Magistrate Liu to be fat and strong, and full of energy!"
Liu He looked at Moda and saw that his eyes were bright and his hands were covered with calluses. He looked a little capable.
"System boss, come and check the attributes of this Moda."
"In the system query, please wait... Ding! Moda attributes: Commander 37, Martial power 52, Intelligence 74, Political power 36, Special attributes: None, Special stunt: None."
Liu He nodded secretly. Moda's attributes were pretty good, but since the other party said that he was proficient in horse raising horses, he naturally would not send him another way. Wouldn't that waste talent?
"Well, this job has a great responsibility. I am preparing to set up the position of Ma Cheng in the army. If you perform well, I can consider awarding this position to you!"
Moda was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "The villain must do his best to do things with all his heart and live up to the high expectations of the county magistrate!"
When he heard that he had the chance to get an official position, the rest of the Zhang and Su families suddenly showed a little enviousness, even the "master" who recommended him just now was a little shaking.
But it was useless to be moved. He knew that he was old and could not bear to raise horses with the army. If his disciple could become this Ma Cheng, he would remember his goodness as a master in the future. This was the best choice.
At this time, Guan Yu turned around and looked at Liu He and said, "I would like to give these two mounts a name!"
Military generals love horses, and horses also have spirituality, so many military generals like to give their war horses a nice name, call them every day, and form a better tacit understanding in the long run.
Liu He lowered his head and pondered for a while, then looked at the two divine horses.
"When this maroon-red horse was just running, it was like a red smoke. The white hair on its four hooves turned into a white shadow. Just call it the red smoke shadow. As for this light yellow, his voice resounded through the clouds, and his demeanor was as good as a divine beast. How about just calling it a roar of the Qilin?"
Guan Yu and Cheng Liang repeatedly said these two names several times, and then they both stroking their hands and applauded.
"Okay, a good name! My brother is much more educated than my old Cheng, haha!"
Liu He turned around and instructed Mo Da: "After a moment, you will follow my second brother Yun Chang and my disciple Ye Xiang, and go to Huangshui Township together. Then, the Red Yan Jueying and Qilin Roar will be placed in the stable next to my mount, Black King. From now on, I will take care of these three mounts with Zhao Xingming, who is responsible for taming the Black King. Oh, by the way, Brother Wende will also go there."
Moda was not very clear about the situation of the Black King, but Guan Yu and Cheng Liang understood it. Therefore, after hearing Liu He's instructions, he was very confused.
"Brother, that Black King is the king of beasts. He is afraid that the five brothers and five of us dare not face each other's sharp edges. Put these two horses next to him, wouldn't it be..." Guan Yu said with concern.
After hearing his words, Moda and the others also changed slightly.
What else can be called the king of beasts? Even Moda himself began to tremble a little if he wanted to be with such a beast.
Liu He smiled slightly and said, "Haha, you don't know the spirituality of the Black King. How could you hurt your own people at will? Besides, our brothers will inevitably fight side by side in the future. If your mounts are afraid of the Black King and cannot walk when they see him, how can we fight together? Our cavalry is scared by the Black King, then will we be defeated without fighting?"
When Guan Yu and Cheng Liang heard this, they felt it made sense, so they stopped talking, and Moda was not easy to disobey.
As for the other people, they secretly praised Liu He in their hearts. Even such a strange beast could be subdued to a mount. It seems that the head of the family from home had bet the right treasure this time!
All the people decided to go back and tell Guan Yu, Cheng Liang and the bravery of County Magistrate Liu to the head of the family.
