Chapter 365: Can't pull it out

Han Qi also thought that it would be very fast, he had already accelerated his speed as much as possible, and wherever the center was, it must be as fast as possible, but in any case, he didn't expect that it would be so fast, and at the same time, it would be ten thousand cavalry riding together.

Although there were a lot of horses in the Northern Song Dynasty, the cavalry in the formation still needed to be mobilized among many troops, that is, Bianliang, to mobilize so much.

At this point, Han Qi didn't expect this at all, but he just thought that under the control of the Privy Council, a part of the carriage would be sent over, but he didn't expect that it would be a large-scale cavalry.

According to the first army, there are only 100-200 cavalry, and these cavalry are transferred from at least 50 armies, so that they can barely reach the level of one person and one horse, and there is a slight remainder, which is already the limit for the Northern Song Dynasty.

In the northwest, he fought with Western Xia and Liao, especially after harvesting the first batch of Lingzhou decided to trade, Han Qi knew that in terms of cavalry, the gap between the Northern Song Dynasty and Liao and Western Xia was too big.

Even the worst of the Three Kingdoms, the Western Xia, has at least 5 million horses, not to mention the Liao State, it is not a joke, and even unceremoniously said that the vast Mongolian steppe has at least 10 million horses.

No wonder the cavalry of the Liao State and the Western Xia will be so powerful, when the Northern Song Dynasty is just reluctantly, among a small number of horses, among them, the premise of bantam horses, the other party can already choose among millions, or even tens of millions, the selected horses, of course, the best of the best, no wonder the combat effectiveness is so great.

However, Han Qi didn't think much about it, from the appearance of the longbow and the fortress, the defense system of the Northern Song Dynasty has embarked on another road, and it cannot be said that the advantages of that road, or the disadvantages of the other road, are mainly due to the difference in emphasis.

The Liao State and the Western Xia State just gave full play to their own advantages to the extreme, and they were more suitable for the environment of this era, so they had strong combat effectiveness, but the Northern Song Dynasty was not bad, and even to a certain extent, the Northern Song Dynasty had an advantage in the war situation in terms of economy and logistics, and the reason why it did not play a role was that it did not find a suitable road before.

The appearance of Zhao Xin has not had a great impact on the entire Northern Song Dynasty, but it has reached the most critical place, the longbow and the fortress, one attack and one defense, two weapons, perfectly combined, can perfectly combine the technology, manpower, and manufacturing power of the Northern Song Dynasty.

The population of the Western Xia is only a few million, millions of people, and the Liao State is only 10 million, and the two countries together are not even a quarter of the Northern Song Dynasty, as long as the problem of expensive iron materials is solved, if more troops are equipped, 500,000 to 500,000, 1 million to 1 million, can play a one-to-one consumption, I am afraid that the Northern Song Dynasty is just injured, and the Liao State will not be able to hold it.

Han Qi expelled the distracting thoughts in his heart, at this time, thinking about what to do, even if the Northern Song Dynasty can already have an advantage, but to defeat the Liao State, it is a long-term process, and the starting point of this is this transaction.

As long as the transaction is completed, when a large number of livestock enter the Northern Song Dynasty, the transaction will be substantially completed, which is a huge benefit to the Northern Song Dynasty.

In his own right, he thought that these brocades mobilized by the power of the Northern Song Dynasty would blind the eyes of those Liao people, but these were at a higher level, or they were the high-quality tributes in the palace, or the rewards of the ministers for their great achievements, even if he would not see them one by one, but one thing was certain, these things were definitely rare and high-quality products.

Chinese silk, developed for thousands of years, legend, is the wife of the Yellow Emperor invented silkworm silk, this is an ancient myth, there may be fragments of things handed down, more, is speculation, but archaeological excavations can not be faked, in 1998, found from the 21st century 5500 years from the site, found silk fragments, can prove that the Chinese as early as prehistory, already had silk.

Thousands of years, slowly developed and evolved, China's silk has become a business card, into a dumbfounded existence for all aliens, not to mention the Northern Song Dynasty, in the era of economic and technological prosperity, enough to shock the world, these national efforts, may only produce a few hundred horses of silk a year, how dazzling.

These, even in the Northern Song Dynasty, only a very small number of people have seen them, especially the top silk satin, in the Northern Song Dynasty, only the level of the governor and the political affairs, the top civil officials, or the top among the concubines, at least the level of the concubines can see it.

These people, at best, are one or two thousand people, such people, in the entire Northern Song Dynasty, are also a very small number, and it is impossible to see them in the Liao Kingdom, even Han Qi knows that these things, compared to the things collected in Xi'an before, are not ordinarily high, they are much higher.

Han Qi immediately found someone and selected 500 horses from the middle, of which only 40 sets were slightly better, and the others were brocades that seemed to be a little weaker, which were sorted out together, and then packed up in some more exquisite boxes and sent to Liaoguo.

The top, even Han Qi, is reluctant to take them all out now, just choose among them.

The speed of the Northern Song Dynasty was so fast, which really surprised Liao Xingzong's expectations, but he thought that such a perfect handicraft could not be mobilized so quickly, perhaps, it was just the foolery of the Song people.

Liao Xingzong, who had the idea of lowering the price in his heart, finally decided to take a look, but when he saw it, he saw it and couldn't get out of it.

When these fine products were displayed in Liao Xingzong's big tent, Liao Xingzong almost didn't look into them and couldn't pull them out.

As the emperor of Liao, he seems to have seen everything, but these silks have exceeded the luxury category he can imagine, and these are almost the top craftsmen in the entire Northern Song Dynasty, and their ingenuity and handiwork have finally condensed into a beautiful boutique.

Vivid birds and phoenixes, these beautiful and luxurious palace beauties, and some mythological stories and mountain and river scenery, as if nothing can not enter the brocade, where is this placed, it is a painting, not to mention the more magical change of scenery, the return of the painting, there is nothing unexpected, only can not be done.

This is a visual feast, but also an eye-opening provincial capital, in front of these silk with its own aperture, what words, have become pale and weak, see the eyes, it really can't pull out, each batch of brocade, have attracted the eyes of countless people, and even when the messenger is finished, for a long time, the entire handsome tent is silent, including Liao Xingzong, no one has spoken, the entire handsome tent, it is dead, everyone's eyes are focused on the brocade.
