Chapter 263: The Discussion of Cutting the City
Tianma is produced in the westernmost part of Daqing Mountain, is the holy product of horses, is not afraid of Rong Qiang wolf riding, the foot distance far exceeds the ordinary black and red Hua, and even comparable to the king of horses. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 However, Pegasi are wild and untamable, and very few people can use it as their foot power, let alone take it to the battlefield - the light of the sword and spear will only make Pegasi even more mad.
The Pegasi are stealthy and in large groups, and even if the army does, they may not be able to subdue them. Therefore, all the good horses with the Pegasus bloodline in the world today are produced by the mares raised by the herdsmen under the Daqing Mountains during the horse mating season. Compared to Pegasi, these horses are much more docile, but their speed is much less. Naturally, mixed-breed horses inherited the weakness of the mare's timidity, fearing wolves to ride, but also fearing beasts, and some even feared people.
The price of a hybrid horse is between a normal military horse and a good horse, while the price of a Pegasus is sky-high, but it has always been priceless. And at this moment, seeing this Pegasus who was locked in a wooden cage like a beast, Han Feng instantly understood.
Pegasi are huge, fierce, and live far west of the Great Green Mountains - all of this shows that Pegasi were not the creatures they should have been "on this side of the mountain" in the first place. It was originally a beast, a monster on the other side of the mountain, and it had the same origin as a snow sculpture and so on, but for some reason, it was left here, and it became a foreign object that people wanted but feared to get.
Han Feng took a breath silently: the stone carvings in the Holy City had only been seen by him and Mingxi, and Zhan Zhongqi might know a little bit about it, but it was not enough for him to think of it. As for Willow Springs...... He couldn't guess that Pegasi wasn't supposed to be an animal in the first place, so what was his purpose in bringing Pegasus over at this moment?
Used in exchange, no other.
Looking at the Pegasus that was as dark as a moonless night, Han Feng shook his head and said, "This is useless to us. ”
"Useless?" said Liu Quan, raising an eyebrow, "If you have a Pegasus, you don't have to be afraid of the Rong people." "Behind Pingsha City is the thousands of wolf horses of the Rong people, which is also the biggest help for Pingsha City in addition to its own defenders. If the cavalry of Fengguan Mangcheng is matched with the heavenly horses, they will definitely become the fierce opponents of the wolf cavalry, and even become the most powerful cavalry in the whole world.
Of course, there is a premise for all of this: that the Pegasi can be tamed.
So Han Feng still shook his head, and at the same time stretched out his hand and clicked on the wooden cage: "If you bring it, you have to use the cage." The implication is that even the northern generation that caught the Pegasus had no way to tame it.
Liu Quan said: "The Northern Dynasty can't, but the Western Dynasty does." Exactly...... It's the royal brother, you have a way. ”
Liu Quan had already calculated it thoroughly, Han Feng looked at Manghou who was slightly hostile and Zhan Zhongqi who was smiling, and the answer that Liu Quan was referring to slowly appeared in his heart. If there is anyone who can tame the Pegasus, it is the horse protector at the foot of Xiji Mountain, who is a friend of the horse and accompanies the horse for life. And the Northern Dynasty completely turned his face with them because of the theft of Chihua, but he had a nine-burning bond with them...... I have to admit that this is indeed a must-have.
Liu Quan said vaguely, and Han Feng didn't intend to tell it all in front of Manghou. The two glanced at each other thoughtfully, and Han Feng said, "How many Pegasus do you have?"
Liu Quan said: "Tens of thousands. We've found the Pegasus, but it's not easy to get them all out. Pegasi are useless in the Northern Generation, and the most they can do is tell the Western Generation, but they can't spend their efforts in vain to help you catch them. Unless ......"
"Give food. Manghou Langran spoke, "Haha, Beidai is really a good idea." From Fengguan Mangcheng to Daqingshan, it is necessary to cross the Nanchangmen, which is known as a natural danger, and it is naturally not as easy as Pingsha soldiers to take the road between the two mountains. I don't know how much Emperor Liu plans to sell for this address?"
Liu Quan laughed and said, "Isn't it tacky to talk about money? 10,000 stone of military food is enough." In addition, the expenses of my Pingsha soldiers on the way to Daqingshan also had to be helped by Manghou. ”
Seeing that the two of them could talk about entering the port, Manghou didn't expect Han Feng to interject horizontally: "Wait." I would like to add another 50,000 stone of military rations, and I don't need the help of the Pingsha soldiers to help subdue the heavenly horses, but I am willing to change the capital for a city!"
This was a proposal that surprised everyone, and even Liu Quan's face changed. He was stunned and silent, staring at Han Feng with wide eyes, and asked, "You want to leave the capital?"
"Yes. Han Feng replied. He calmly looked at Manghou, whose face was pale, and then moved his gaze to Zhan Zhongqi.
Zhan Zhongqi still had an unpredictable smile on his face, he stroked his fake beard, and his face was full of triumphant glory - this smile was seen in Han Feng's eyes, and he only felt warm in his heart.
With so many people present, except for Liu Quan, perhaps only Zhan Zhongqi knew why he wanted to leave the capital.
It's not that his hometown is hard to give up, he wants to leave the capital, but more for the iron ore in the northwest of the capital. Even with the help of fire and thunder, ordinary soldiers still need sophisticated weapons, Pingsha City itself has mineral deposits, and the iron ore in Lidu is nothing more than icing on the cake for them, but it is very important to Fengguan Mangcheng, which only has gold and silver. What's more, Lidu is adjacent to the west of Daqingshan, and it can even be regarded as guarding the main road between Daqingshan and Changmen Mountain.
50,000 military rations are enough to stretch the already scarce Fengguan Mangcheng, but this is not a loss-making business.
And the negotiation between the two countries, since the emperor of a country has opened his mouth, even the Marquis of Manghou has to obey for the time being...... As if sensing the tension at the banquet, Pegasus "Night" became more and more reluctant to stop in the wooden cage, snorting and pacing, making the wooden cage sway and make the people around it nervous.
Zhan Zhongqi opened his mouth at the right time: "Lidu is only an empty city now, and whether it can subdue the Heavenly Horse is still unknown to us. 60,000 stone of military rations, this is not a loss. Isn't the Northern Dynasty still satisfied?"
"The stakes are big and still open to discussion. Liu Quan dealt with two sentences with an expressionless face, no matter what, Lidu was considered the territory of the Northern Dynasty, and without the consent of Xing Hou, he would not dare to make this decision easily even with the respect of the emperor.
Han Feng said, "It's time to think about it." Why don't you go back to the post station to rest first?"
"It's fine. Liu Quan got up as he spoke. When he got up, he obviously shook his body, as if he was exhausted by physical strength, but Han Feng could see clearly that the corners of his mouth were faintly oozing blood.
Liu Quan's demeanor was much slower, his hand trembled slightly and took it into his arms, Qu Yuan and Wei Wei stood up almost at the same time, both blocking Liu Quan's side, one left and one right, blocking the eyes of others tightly.
Thinking of the previous situation on the shore of Chengjing Lake, Han Feng realized in his heart: Liu Quan used medicine to control the green nightmare, and gradually hollowed out his body, and it seemed that it was not as good as day by day. I don't know how long he can hold on in such a situation.
