The autumn hunt ended, and early the next morning, Li Shimin returned to Beijing with his ministers.

When Qin Tian and the others returned home, it was already before dusk.

Chang'an City before dusk has a sense of slaughter, quite poignant.

The weather is getting colder day by day.

The Ninth Princess already knew about Li Shimin asking Qin Tian to buy a horse, and Tang Rong was very angry about this.

"What does the saint mean, he doesn't want the court to spend money, and he still wants a good horse, can't it be that we can buy it at our own expense?"

Tang Rong was reluctant to spend money, the ninth princess was beside her, but it was hard to say anything, Ben Lei Ma was too expensive, and it was indeed a bit embarrassing for her husband to buy it, but the cavalry was obviously very important to the Tang Dynasty.

"Xianggong, have you thought of a way?" Lu Huaniang asked, Qin Tian shook his head: "Not for the time being, let's take one step at a time, buy it, I definitely won't use our money to buy it." ”

No one's money is blown by the wind, although he is the prime minister, but Datang is not his, how can this kind of thing pit him alone?

A few people chatted for a while, and then they went their separate ways, Qin Tian was not in a hurry to rest, but ordered someone to buy materials for making the Tang Divine Crossbow, and the Ninth Princess saw him like this, and asked, "Can you really make a divine crossbow?" ”

"Of course, when it is made, it will definitely shock everyone."

The Ninth Princess pursed her lips, but she didn't have the slightest suspicion.

The next day, Qin Tian did not go to the early court.

He knew that as long as he went to the early dynasty, Li Shimin would definitely buy the Lei Ma for the matter, since this was the case, then hide.

Anyway, he had an excuse, so he said that he was studying the Tang Divine Crossbow at home.

But who would have thought that when it was almost noon, a palace man came in a hurry.

"Little Marquis, the Holy Lord announced that you have entered the palace."

"Go back and tell the saint, just say that I am making the Tang Divine Crossbow."

"The saint said, no matter what you are doing, you have to enter the palace, otherwise you will be severely punished."

The word severe punishment was quite ruthless, Qin Tian showed a look of distress on his face, so he could only put down the work in his hand and follow the palace man into the palace.

The palace is a little mottled, and the autumn scenery is even more interesting.

When he came to the imperial study, Li Shimin was reviewing the folds.

He glanced at Qin Tian and said, "Qin Aiqing is here?" ”

The tone was good, as if there was no meaning of anger, Qin Tian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Holy Xuan Weichen is here, I don't know what happened?" ”

"What did you think about what I told you about buying a Benleima?"

"This ......"

"Qin Aiqing, this is an important matter for my Datang, don't be negligent, if you have any way, just say it."

Qin Tian was speechless, if you are willing to give money, won't this matter be solved.

"Holy Lord, this is not easy to do."

When these words came out, Li Shimin suddenly frowned, and said coldly: "I must come up with a way to come up with a way today, otherwise I won't want to leave the palace, I will raise you in the palace." ”

Li Shimin was very angry, and what he said was particularly scoundrel, shameless, Qin Tian was a little stunned, he didn't expect that these words came out of Li Shimin's mouth, dignified son, is it so shameless?

"Holy ......"

Without waiting for Qin Tian to finish speaking, Li Shimin got up directly to leave, Qin Tian didn't want to come up with a way, he wasn't ready to talk nonsense with Qin Tian, seeing this, Qin Tiancai was really anxious, how could he not let him go home?

Therefore, Qin Tian hurriedly changed his words and said, "Holy Lord, there is a way, there is a way." ”

Li Shimin, who was about to leave, immediately stopped when he heard this, turned to look at Qin Tiandao: "Is there really a way?" ”

"There's really a way."

Li Shimin sat back and asked, "Let's talk about it, how to get Ben Lei Ma." ”

"Shengshang, the imperial court's finances are insufficient, so naturally they can't buy Benlei Horses in large quantities, but I have a lot of rich businessmen and powerful people in the Tang Dynasty, and they have a lot of money, so you might as well let them pay for Benlei Horses by themselves."

Hearing this, Li Shimin's brows condensed, let these people pay, it would be good.

Qin Tian was not in a hurry, and continued: "Holy Lord, everyone has the heart of loving horses, they are rich people, who doesn't want to buy a few good horses?" The saint ordered them to pay for it, and the court subsidized them with some money, and with this discount, those people didn't take this opportunity to buy it. ”

You can save money, and naturally someone will take advantage of this opportunity to buy a good horse, but Li Shimin's brows are even tighter, because Qin Tian's method can't solve the problem at all.

"Qin Aiqing, are you fooling me?"

"Shengshang, the minister dares, what the Shengshang wants, isn't it to run thunder horses, and after those rich people buy horses, you can let these horses breed, within two years, there will be a lot more good horses in my Tang Dynasty, and at that time, cavalry can be successful."

It is obviously impossible to do it overnight, and if you want to build an invincible cavalry, you can only do it through time.

As long as there is time, there is nothing in this world that cannot be done.

It's just that after hearing Qin Tian's method, Li Shimin was a little disliked, after two years, the cavalry could be completed, it would be too slow, he couldn't wait so long.

"Qin Aiqing, is there a faster way?"

"Shengshang, if you want to hurry, you can't reach it, with my current strength in the Tang Dynasty, it is not enough to fight with the Turks, or in other words, it is okay to fight in one battle, but to destroy the Turks, the strength is not enough, and it is necessary to endure it in two or three years, so what if you wait for two years?"

Speaking of this, Qin Tian said again: "The Holy Lord has even endured such a thing as the Weishui Alliance, not to mention that it has only been two years, and in this battle, my Datang is not to defeat the Turks, but to destroy the Turks, and never suffer in the future, so that the Holy Lord can raise his eyebrows." ”

Qin Tian said this, Li Shimin's expression slowly calmed down, he naturally knew the current strength of the Tang Dynasty, if he was not absolutely sure, he would not easily use troops against the Turks.

It's only two years, and he can bear it.

Big husband, what can't you bear in order to succeed?

"Qin Aiqing is right, there is nothing I can't bear, two years, there is no problem, it's just that this horse was bought by those powerful people, even if it is breeding, it doesn't belong to the imperial court, right?"

It is not difficult for Datang to have Ben Lei Ma, but the difficult thing is how to get Ben Lei Ma from these people.

"Shengshang, it's not difficult to get your hands on it, when the saint builds a cavalry, you can collect Benlei horses, give some commissions to the owner of the horse, if the horse has a loss, and then give them some compensation, and then there is, encourage the people to raise horses, the people raise more horses, naturally can reduce the price of horses, at that time, even if it is a Benlei horse, it will definitely reduce the price, if the Tang Dynasty is financially rich, then you can buy a batch back, two ways, can always solve the problem of cavalry."

In general, in war, many soldiers on horseback are self-prepared horses, and the court gives a certain subsidy, and if the cavalry is cavalry, there are those who bring their own horses, and there are also those who use court horses, and it is okay to collect some good horses.
