Youzhou also has a horse farm, the owner of the horse farm is the Sima supervisor Ma Yuan in Liu Yi's mansion that day, although this person is not famous, he can have a very good relationship with a cadre of military generals in Liu Yi's army, especially Zhao Yun, Yan Gang, Shan Jing and other iron cavalry generals, and then added Huaxiong Fan Chou. There are many classifications of talents in Liu Yi's eyes, and this Ma Yuan is good at raising horses, and breeding is also his strength, and even the masters of Wuhuan and Xiongnu who were hired heavily in the horse farm admire him, in Liu Yi's opinion, Ma Yuan and Ban Qing play a role that is no longer under any general.

"I watched the horses on a whim today, where is the owner of the horse farm?" The guards saw the general and a cadre of generals rushing from a distance, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, Liu Yi smiled slightly, and asked, he has been educated by the idea of equality for all people in later generations for a long time, and he is extremely kind when he is not on official business.

"General, there is a mare in the tent today who has a difficult birth, and the owner of the horse farm has gone in person, so I will go to spread the word." In Liu Yijun, the word general is the exclusive title given to him by the soldiers, and the rest should be given names, which can also reflect his prestige among the soldiers.

"Hey, no, you can just take me and the others there, for the horse farm owner, this is a big deal, if you call him here, you have to complain." Liu Yi stopped, he respected these people with a skill, and admired their professional attitude.

The group came to the front of the tent under the guidance of the guards, and there was a faint neighing of horses inside, Liu Yi signaled the generals to keep quiet, and did not enter, so they waited quietly outside the stable.

After about a tea time, a short and fat man walked out covered in blood, and when he saw Liu Yi's obvious expression here, he was stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute the lord.

"Ma Yuan has seen the general, and the situation of Honghua today is very critical, so Ma Yuan is rude." Honghua is the name of the mare, just like Liu Yi knows the names of many soldiers, Ma Yuan is also familiar with every horse in the horse farm, and this alone can show his obsession, if a person wants to achieve a very high status in a certain field, obsession is essential.

"Hehe, the owner of the horse farm is polite, it was Liu who disturbed him, go and change your clothes." Liu Yi said with a smile and Wen Yan, not caring at all about Ma Yuan's actions and appearance at this time.

"Yes, General, wait." After Ma Yuan finished speaking, he gave a salute to the generals before he hurried away, Zhao Yun and the others also smiled politely and signaled him to go quickly, Yan Gang even stepped forward to accompany Ma Yuan directly to change clothes, so it can be seen that the relationship between this person and the generals is extremely harmonious.

After another moment, Ma Yuan came back with a clean clothes, Liu Yi and the generals also went to watch the 10,000 war horses under his guidance, with the continuous strengthening of Liu Yi's power in recent years, the scope of the horse farm has also expanded, and there are Youzhou horse farms within a radius of dozens of miles, with special army patrols, of course, this place is also a fertile place for Ma Yuan to carefully select water and plants.

Liu Yi remembers that when he first came to Beiping, it took Ma Yuan half a year to determine this place as a place to raise horses, climate, grass seeds, and water flow. Even the hardness of the soil is within the scope of Ma Yuan's exploration, and he specially invited many people who are proficient in water and grass from other races to investigate together, which shows his intentions.

This huge horse farm also has a regional division, Ma Yuan according to the general's meaning, the general horse and the horse used in the transportation to distinguish, and then it is more and more fine, short-distance, long-distance, focus on impact, pay attention to endurance, breeding, horse and donkey hybridization, all have special people to be responsible, in Liu Yi's words, Ma Yuan has done a heinous degree in the meticulousness of the work, and in the name of "horse idiot", the appreciation is overflowing.

War horses and ordinary horses are not the same food, after coming to this world, Liu Yi knew that war horses are to eat meat, the configuration is also very particular, with the army is mostly meatloaf-based, than other princes' soldiers have to eat better, of course, in Liu Yi's army will not appear with horses to fight for food, these cavalry in the perennial battle with the crotch of the horse to form a kind of feelings is incomprehensible to ordinary people, not to mention that their own food is very good, even if they eat poorly, will not let the horse be wronged, When you enter the Iron Cavalry Battalion, there will be veterans who will teach you various methods of taking care of the horses, and these methods are summarized by the people in the horse farm led by Ma Yuan through years of practice.

There is a core area in the horse farm, which is the most abundant place for aquatic plants, which is the ** area, with the strong support of Liu Yi, Ma Yuan has been concentrating on the study of breeding techniques, hoping that the quality of self-produced war horses in Youzhou can also be greatly improved. This area is not accessible to ordinary people in the racecourse, which is a kind of technical secrecy, and Liu Yi recognizes it.

On this horse farm, Liu Yi's investment can be described as huge, all kinds of facilities are perfect according to Ma Yuan's requirements, of course, his investment is not without returns, the mules and horses produced in Youzhou Horse Farm have long-lasting endurance and extraordinary loads, first of all, the Youzhou merchants led by Mi and Zhen began to buy for business, and later with their footprints, merchants from many states and counties in Dahan will come to buy, Wei family, Qin family, Zhang family, Lu family, these other four families also followed. However, when it comes to foreign merchants, Liu Yi is not so preferential in terms of price, but fortunately, it is not too much, with the excellent performance of Youzhou mules and horses, businessmen are still flocking to it. The annual income in this area is sufficient for the expenses of the racecourse, and most of it is naturally used by the RM1 for other expenses.

For the general, Ma Yuan is also heartily grateful, there are thousands of miles of horses and Bole, Liu Yi is not only reusing him, giving him power, providing the required materials according to his requirements, the most important thing is that trust and respect, the general in front of him will always be a close young man, after the emperor entered Beiping, he set up Sima Jian, Ma Yuan got the official position, and his family is proud of it! Every year he has at his disposal thousands of taels of silver, of course, he will not be greedy for a penny, since ancient times Huaxia is a scholar for the confidant to die, although Ma Yuan did not consider himself a soldier before, but also knew that the righteousness of every slaughter of dogs, the general treated him with righteousness, he wanted to die to repay.

"Ma Yuan, these horses from Xiliang are very good, according to your vision, how many can be used for the military." Looking at the 10,000 horses in front of him, Liu Yi asked happily. The generals are all overjoyed, and even more have been secretly selected in their hearts.

"What the general said is not bad, Xiliang's batch of horses is better than foreign horses in terms of endurance, the villain is checking in detail, when there are some that can be used for stallions, as for the use of combat horses, it will take time for the villain to fight, I think I will give the general a clear number after seven days." This is the speaking style of the horse idiot, he is always meticulous, and he never speaks lightly until he is very sure, but as long as he says it, Liu Yi is convinced, and he also appreciates his style.

"Okay, when your numbers come out, I will ask Zhicai to give you a copy of what each battalion needs, and then it will be completed as soon as possible!" Liu Yi said with a smile, and walked slowly around the horse farm after speaking, carefully looking at the facilities everywhere, and sometimes chatting with other members, and then looking at Ma Yuan, at this time, he was already surrounded by a group of generals and stars like a moon, talking nonsense, nothing more than asking Ma Yuan to give them some more high-quality when distributing war horses, Ma Yuan also responded to the requirements of the generals with a smile on his face, and seemed extremely skilled.

At this time, the horses also began to run every day under the arrangement of the horse farm staff, and the momentum between the galloping horses was unparalleled for a while, and Liu Yi was also proud, and in time, he would be able to have an elite iron horse ride all over the Han picturesque country, no, maybe not limited to the Han!
