"I was fooled by that bastard Chen Zichuan. There are indeed horses in the south, but the Yunnan horses in the south are all ponies. At first, I thought the horses sent to me were all ponies and they hadn't been raised yet. Later I realized that these horses can only grow so long.
"Big." Zhou Yu said angrily, "But the racecourse is fine, but we need to introduce high-quality horse breeds. I discussed it with Cao Sikong..."
"Oh oh oh." Sun Ce quickly said that Zhou Yu did a good job and did not dare to make any more suicide remarks. There was no way, sometimes Zhou Yu really couldn't afford to offend him.
Zhou Yu ate in silence and didn't want to talk to his adoptive brother. After a while, Zhou Yu put down his bowls and chopsticks and slowly said, "Although I was tricked by Chen Zichuan, the things are real and there are no big differences. He
There is really no problem in managing the pastures provided.”
"Well, then why don't we raise cattle and sheep here?" Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu in confusion and asked, "I have the impression that our place is all a horse farm."
"One does not have good breeds, and the other is Chen Zichuan's large pasture. Although there is prairie, it is mostly used for cattle, sheep and horses to walk and maintain their condition. Well, if you think about it carefully, it is actually more for war horses to exercise.
, The grassland attached to Chen Zichuan's pasture is not used for cattle and sheep to graze!" Zhou Yu said rather helplessly, he had long discovered that Chen Xi did not follow the routine in many things!
"Well, the pasture is not used for grazing, but for exercising the war horses. This is very interesting." Sun Ce said with a surprised look on his face while eating beef.
"He raises cattle and sheep in captivity, then grows pasture, invests in concentrates and pasture, and makes the cattle and sheep grow up quickly enough to eat." Zhou Yu said with an indifferent face, "That guy raises cattle and sheep purely for eating and running.
The more they are, the more they will be consumed and their growth will be slower, so they are all locked up. This is probably the thinking pattern, but it should be correct."
Sun Ce was stunned. It was the first time he heard of such an operation, but when he thought about it, it seemed to make sense.
"In short, there is no possibility for our ranch here. I will look for a place in South Vietnam to see if I can build another ranch. I always feel that guy Chen Zichuan is deliberately teasing me." Zhou Yu said with a slight displeasure.
"Oh, by the way, I remember you raised a lot of Yunnan horses at that time, right? What should you do now?" Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu curiously and asked. This time, he really wasn't worried.
After taking a sideways look at Sun Ce, Zhou Yu sighed, "I wasted so much manpower and material resources. How could I throw all those things out? Naturally, I used them as pack horses, but speaking of them, as pack horses, these ponies
The endurance is very good, much better than human power."
Seeing that Zhou Yu had calmed down, Sun Ce stopped asking any more questions, pointed at the pot, and told Zhou Yu to continue eating meat. At this moment, a cry suddenly came from the sky, which was the sound of a trusting eagle.
Different from ordinary military affairs being delivered by fast horses, when major events occur, news will be delivered by letter eagles in the Central Plains. These letter eagles are only available in Chang'an, Moling, Yecheng and Sichuan and Chengdu. After the Chang'an Alliance,
, in order to prevent big trouble from happening, Chen Xi gave each of the other three guys a few letter eagles to convey important news.
This cry immediately surprised Sun Ce. It has been a year since he saw Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Liu Zhang send him a secret eagle message. After all, the speed of this thing is so fast that it is almost subsonic or
Sonic, using this thing basically means something big will happen. Last year, so many things were not used by anyone. This time, this thing is actually used to communicate. Is this the end of the world?
Sun Ce rushed out with his chopsticks and whistled to the sky. The letter eagle flew down with a booming sound. Sun Ce's heart sank. If this situation was not a big deal, Sun Ce said that he would definitely rush over and have a good talk with Cao Cao.
He untied the secret message from Xin Ying's leg and asked the servant to take Xin Ying down to feed him some food and drink. Zhou Yu had already walked out at this time.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Yu now changed from his previous gentleness, and carried a certain kind of commanding authority, commanding the majesty of the world. This was Zhou Yu on the battlefield.
Sun Ce rolled his eyes, then laughed and said, "I didn't read it either. God knows what the content is. But if it can be sent as a letter eagle, it can only be said that something big has happened. But in this situation, to what extent is it considered a big thing?
Liu Bei took action? It’s not a big deal.”
While talking, Sun Ce handed the secret letter directly to Zhou Yu, "Look, you can tell the result after reading it. You can also see what Cao Sikong wants to do."
Zhou Yu reached out and took the rolled-up secret message. For some reason, even before he saw the content, he had already inexplicably guessed some of the content. He just didn't know whether it was from the west or the south, but it was sent from Cao Cao.
It should be the West.
Suppressing the distracting thoughts in his heart, Zhou Yu opened the secret letter, which was written in a small seal. Zhou Yu couldn't help but his face darkened. What was he trying to do by writing it in such a small way so that no one could continue to read it?
"Hold the lamp, go back and take a look." Zhou Yu said with a dark face, always feeling that Cao Cao did it on purpose.
On the other side, Cao Cao, who received the secret letter an hour earlier than Sun Ce, has now summoned his subordinates, civil and military officials, and even invited Ma Teng and Han Sui.
"I have sent relevant matters to Yecheng, Moling and Chengdu. It won't take long for them to receive relevant content. This is an urgent report from the Western Regions. Please read it all." Cao Cao copied the secret letter.
, the two of them handed out one share, and now his heart sank.
After originally receiving information about the war between Rome and Parthia from the Western Regions, Cao Cao also had the idea of picking up corpses secretly. After all, the two tigers were fighting each other, so he could just grab some tiger bones, tiger meat, tiger tails, tiger skins, etc.
You can also make a lot of money.
Therefore, some time ago, Cao Cao secretly began to study how to pick up the resting corpses to strengthen himself.
As a result, it had only been a few days. Before Cao Cao could figure out the correct plan for picking up the corpse, and before Cao Cao had time to appreciate the power of Rome and Anxi, now came the information that made Cao Cao even crazier.
Guishang, that is, the one who said he wanted to marry a Han princess in the Han Dynasty court last year, turned against the Han Dynasty and threatened the Han Dynasty. After being captured by Dian Wei and Ma Chao, the so-called armored Bai Bai was never heard from again.
A great country of ten thousand.
Originally, Cao Cao had forgotten about this matter, and asked Dahonglu and Liu Yu to inform Liu Zhang to take care of solving the matter. After all, more than half a year had passed, and Da Yuezhi had not yet done anything, so Cao Cao thought that the other party was still the same.
Little Yakuza.
Everyone knows what Cao Cao's situation is now. The regent princess doesn't work, she just doesn't work, and she doesn't work either dead or alive. Cao Cao can only do it in front of a powerful minister who is very envied by others. He is known as Prime Minister Cao, who manages everything every day. For this matter, Cao Cao started again
Take medicine to avoid headaches. He doesn't want to go to Hua Tuo to be a craniotomy test subject.
Although Hua Tuo repeatedly assured that even if he had to open his head, Cao Cao's life would be safe, but Cao Cao still expressed his gratitude and insensitivity. In order to avoid being captured and used as a test subject, Cao Cao was very concerned about headaches.
, maintain it every day to avoid headaches.
Craniotomy? Humph, how can I let you, Hua Tuo, use my Cao Cao's head to do a craniotomy? Don't think that if you are a big medical expert and a person who has entered the temple, I will give you permission. Stay away from me.
Naturally, in order to take good care of his brain and avoid Hua Tuo's attention, Cao Cao tried to reduce the fatigue level of his brain as much as possible, and naturally he forgot about trivial matters like Kushan.
What's more, normally I wouldn't pay too much attention to this matter. After all, Liu Yu has been notified to explain to Liu Zhang. Since Liu Zhang is urging me, there will naturally be a result and explanation. After all, Liu Tong has never mentioned this matter again. Cao Cao
Everyone thought Liu Zhang had solved the problem, but today they suddenly received such news.
Now that Cao Cao has calmed down and thought about it, with Liu Tong's character, he might have forgotten the incident soon after it passed. As for Guishang, does Liu Tong still remember such a thing?
, maybe someone needs to remind you.
However, just now, Cao Cao received new information about Kushan, a battle report sent by Sima Yi from the Western Regions. The Yuezhi, who had been forgotten by the Han Dynasty in a corner, was preparing to send troops. Well, at first this news
Cao Cao didn't take it seriously, but after looking down, Cao Cao felt a little confused and quickly sent a report. This time something really happened.
A super elite legion estimated to have the combat effectiveness of a military spirit legion, two dual-talented super elite legions, more than 70,000 regular soldiers wearing light armor, and a number of low-caste cannon fodder not included in the calculation.
Because the traitor was too high-ranking, the upper castes in the southern part of Kushan could not capture the lower caste party members, so the information on the generals was very detailed, but the strength of the troops had to be estimated.
The approximate military strength is between 150,000 and 200,000, with 80,000 to 110,000 truly capable soldiers, and as many as 23 generals at the level of internal energy separation, and this is only the power of the high castes in the southern Kushan.
You must know that the country of Kushan can even be divided into two parts, north and south, and the north seems to be controlling the south in terms of military strength and combat power and other war-related aspects.
With the combat power now displayed on paper, Cao Cao felt inexplicably that the words the Kushan envoy roared in the Han Dynasty court last year with "a million men in armor" were really not a joke.
With this kind of strength, including auxiliary soldiers and civilians, it's not a big deal if I can get you a million soldiers without bragging.
It was precisely because of this terrifying strength that Cao Cao suddenly realized why the Kushan envoy did something that was unacceptable to the Han Dynasty last year.
Because they are also a powerful and powerful empire, they cannot be insulted.
But now that the matter has come to this point, Cao Cao has nothing to say. He has already let go. How can he swallow it back? Not to mention that the Han Dynasty really doesn’t have a princess now. Even if there is, you are so embarrassed now. How can the Han Dynasty give you face?
