Chapter 38 Reward
Lu Bu looked at the running Mongolian horse, his eyes gradually brightened, and suddenly his heart moved.
"In exchange for two Arabian horses."
"200 points have been deducted and the redemption is completed. Do you want to withdraw it now?"
"Take it out now and keep it in the woods."
"It has been taken out, please check it with the host."
Lu Bu hurriedly turned his head and saw two tall war horses walking slowly out through the woods.
"Look, there are two more war horses there. Go and catch them for me."
The guards hurriedly turned their heads to look. When they saw the Arabian horses in the woods, their eyes suddenly lit up.
The Arabian horse attracts a large number of people not only by its speed nor its advantages, but also by its appearance.
Although the Arabian horse's head is not big, it looks extremely delicate, especially its eyes, which are much larger than other horses and are bright and shining.
Although the slender neck, long horse mane, and back are shorter, they are extremely well-proportioned with the whole body.
Especially the chestnut-colored fur is as soft as silk, shining like silk in the sun.
Arabian horses are extremely humane. Before the guards could enter the woods, they had already neighed and ran out of the woods.
Everyone thought it was going to run away, but they never thought that two war horses would run out of the woods and quickly come to the front of the red rabbit horse, stretching out their horses' heads to sniff.
But the red rabbit horse snorted, turned around, and raised its head proudly.
Although the Arabian horse is a good horse, compared with the red rabbit, it is still very different.
The red rabbit horse is the king of horses. When other war horses see it, they will naturally feel a sense of disaster.
Although Red Rabbit Ma was a little disdainful of the two Arabian horses, Lu Bu's eyes lit up when he saw them, and he kept admiring them in his heart.
"Good horse, really good horse."
With his many years of experience, he knows that an Arabian horse is definitely a good horse just by looking at its lines and frame.
More than a dozen guards immediately surrounded him and tied the Arabian horse with a rope, and then he felt relieved.
"What a horse!"
"I'm so lucky today, I met so many war horses."
"Ready your horse!"
After hearing the order, everyone hurriedly mounted one of the Arabian horses.
Lu Bu pointed at a guard and said, "Get on your horse and compete with them."
"As you command!"
The guard immediately jumped on the Arabian horse, shouted, and galloped out.
"Come on, let's have a try."
Three war horses ran wildly on the plain. Although they started from different positions, it was immediately obvious that the fastest one was of course the Arabian horse.
The horse running in second place was a Mongolian horse. Although it was short, it could run very fast with its four hooves thrown away.
The slowest one was the ordinary war horse ridden by Li Gu, which actually fell at the back.
Seeing this scene, Lu Bu was ecstatic. He never expected that the already small Mongolian horse would bring him such a big surprise.
Even if the Mongolian horse ran as fast as an ordinary war horse, Lu Bu would be very satisfied.
The attributes of the Mongolian horse have been made very clear. It is not picky about food and can survive even in ice and snow. This is its strength, and this is what Lu Bu likes.
When we were in Bingzhou, we missed many good opportunities because of the lack of supplies for war horses.
If you had a war horse like the Mongolian horse, you would probably have to win a lot more battles.
There are also Arabian horses. Lu Bu didn't expect them to be so fast. Although they are still incomparable to the red rabbit horses, they are much faster than ordinary horses and can be called BMWs.
Now Lu Bu can't equip a large number of Arabian horses. It's too luxurious and he doesn't have so many points.
Thinking of this, Lu Bu thought. Since he couldn't equip a large number of horses, and the Arabian horses could be called BMWs, they might as well treat them as rewards.
For example, if he performs meritorious service in a battle or performs well in normal times, he can be rewarded with an Arabian horse.
Thinking that all the generals on his side would ride tall and graceful Arabian horses in the future, Lu Bu was so excited that he couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh.
"Haha, that's great. Let's go back to the city now."
…
When Lu Bu returned to the city, he did not go back to his home, but rushed to the military camp with Zhang Hu and other guards.
When the generals heard the news, they rushed to greet him.
"See Wen Hou."
The crowd gathered around Lu Bu and came to the main hall of the military camp.
Lu Bu came to the main seat and sat down, looked around at everyone, laughed and said, "Everyone, who can do the most to drive Cao Mengde away this time?"
When everyone heard this, they all said, "Of course, General Zhang and General Cheng deserve the most credit."
The ability to burn Cao's army's grain this time was all thanks to the Bingzhou Cavalry, and as the leaders of the Bingzhou Cavalry, Zhang Liao and Cheng Lian certainly contributed the most.
Zhang Liao hurriedly stepped forward and handed over his hand, "If you want to say that the greatest contribution is made, Marquis Wen's internal response deserves the greatest credit."
Cheng Lian nodded, "It's just a pity that he can't come to receive the reward.
However, I admire him as a man!"
Lu Bu didn't want to dwell on this topic any longer, so he waved his hand and said with a smile, "I always reward you if you have merit. Since you two have made the greatest contribution, of course I must reward you."
At this point, Lu Bu paused and asked with a smile, "Everyone, please come with me to see what the rewards are for the two of them?"
After speaking, Lu Bu led everyone out of the hall and shouted, "Zhang Hu, bring the horse over."
Cheng Lian thought it was some kind of treasure, but when he heard it was a war horse, he was a little disappointed and muttered, "It turns out to be a war horse."
Lu Bu glanced at Cheng Lian, "You don't want it?"
Cheng Lian hurriedly handed over his hand, "How about I record a meritorious deed?"
Lu Bu nodded but said nothing, because he knew that Cheng Lian, a fool, would definitely regret it.
When Cheng Lian saw the Arabian horse brought over by Zhang Hu, his eyes lit up and his eyes immediately straightened!
"Good baby!"
Lu Bu turned his head and looked at Zhang Liao with bright eyes, "General Zhang, if you don't want this reward from me, just let them take it back."
"no!"
Zhang Liao, who had been attracted by the graceful appearance of the Arabian horse, heard this sentence and immediately refused without thinking.
After Zhang Liao came to his senses, he hurriedly handed over his hand and said, "I would like to thank Marquis Wen for the reward."
As generals like them, we know better than anyone else that a good war horse is simply a second life.
Needless to say how powerful it is when charging, but simply speaking, once defeated, when escaping, if you run fast, you can save your life. If you run slow, of course it is over!
Therefore, for cavalry, the best companion on the battlefield is not a comrade-in-arms, but a war horse.
Although Zhang Liao didn't know these two horses, with his many years of experience, he was certain in his heart that they were definitely good horses and couldn't go wrong!
