(ncil, I’m an old friend, thank you for your vote.) The horse administration of the Sui Dynasty has been quite perfect, and the scale of the racecourse has also been expanding year by year. By the Daye period, the two racecourses in Liangzhou and Yulin were completely formed, and the Western Regions were open, and the horse breeds were
It was also guaranteed.
This is also one of the foundations of the Sui Dynasty's strength. With these war horses, the Turks did not dare to go south easily. With these war horses, rebel armies gradually emerged everywhere. The cavalry of the Sui Dynasty rushed to the rescue from all directions. They could arrive in the blink of an eye.
The foundation of the Sui Dynasty could not be shaken.
The expansion of the Sui Dynasty's territory was actually directly related to its perfect horse administration.
Canghe Racecourse has sufficient pasture, but it is similar to Liangzhou Racecourse and Yulin Racecourse. Due to the long-term threat of Turks, it cannot sustainably and effectively expand its scale.
During the last years of Emperor Wen's reign and the early years of Daye's reign, there was also a Sui pasture in Yunzhong.
Unfortunately, after Han King Yang Liang made a rebellion, although Yang Su quickly put an end to it, the many people involved greatly weakened the strength of the Yanmen garrison in Mayi.
Yunzhong Shouchuo Mansion was abandoned, and Yunzhong Ranch was once again occupied by some grassland tribes.
The most important reason for the shrinkage of pastures in Jin is actually that after the Turkic Khanate had surrendered for many years, the Sui Dynasty began to turn its attention to the Western Regions, coupled with internal fighting, as well as a series of large-scale corvee labor in the early years of the Great Cause, which caused the decline of people's livelihood, uprisings, etc.
The incident caused one of the most important northern frontier fortresses in the Sui Dynasty, the two counties of Mayi and Yanmen, to be severely affected.
Ma Zheng is actually just one aspect of it.
Three people, driving a group of horses, arrived at Canghe Racecourse.
In late spring, water and grass are in abundance. Looking around, one can see a vast expanse of green, with the Cang River meandering like a long snake, injecting infinite vitality into the land. Suddenly, Li Po seemed to be back on the grassland outside the Great Wall.
........
From a distance, several horses were galloping towards them. They were the guards of the racecourse and also the shepherds of the racecourse.
The group of people gathered together and headed straight to the racecourse.
Along the way, the people at the racecourse looked at Li Po and the three of them strangely.
They were ordered to pick up the people, and waited for half a day and one night before the people arrived. Unexpectedly, these people drove more than 20 horses, which was quite different from the instructions they received.
Of course, no matter who asked, the three people would not say that they had been strongmen for a day on the road.
In addition to these war horses, they also contained a lot of copper coins in their horse pockets.
When we arrived at the racecourse, the feeling was different.
Because Li Po is now driving Cao Xing to join the army. His official position is not high, but he is ordered to inspect the pastures.
There is no need for Li Po to fight for anything, the respect he receives is unprecedented.
Rows of stables and fences appeared in the field of vision, the braying of cattle and sheep, and the neighing of horses made the place full of life.
The characteristics of Tai Sui Racecourse are also mixed with the government-run breeding industry.
The shepherds here are different from the Kuhaha in the inn. Most of them are soldiers, some have military positions, and some are officials.
The racecourse clerk who accompanied Li Po had a dark and red face, and his smile never stopped.
At this time, he pointed to the front and said with a smile: "Li Junjun, you have worked hard all the way. When you get here, you are home. If you need anything, just ask me. The only thing missing here is a mother-in-law, and everything else is lacking."
Li Po laughed and said, "There is no shortage of men here. How do you think General Li lives here?"
The man didn't get over his boredom yet and laughed twice before realizing something was wrong, and the smile immediately froze on his face.
Li Po laughed heartily, feeling refreshed and clear in his thoughts.
The man kept talking, joking about joining the army, joking about joining the army, but in fact, he admired Li Po's courage and was curious about Li Po's origins.
It's rare for someone to dare to make fun of Commander Li for being a woman in front of others.
Soon, Li Po met Li Bi.
A large bonfire was burning brightly, and a yellow sheep was placed on it, making a sizzling sound.
Several men, with their strong upper bodies naked, kept turning the handles to adjust the position of the yellow sheep.
Roast a whole lamb. Li Po suddenly swallowed his saliva. He didn't know how good these guys were at cooking. It would be better not to waste the ingredients.
As usual, the girl was sitting on a wooden pillar not far away, holding her teeth and waiting for food to be brought to her mouth.
Yuen Long and Li Chun were separated from each other, standing stupidly like two Guanyin boys.
Seeing Li Po, the two guys immediately cheered up and came over to meet him.
Li Chun seemed to have not seen him for several years. He put his arms around Li Po's waist and his eyes were red. Yuen Long stood beside him and grinned.
The three strong men of Duandao were surrounded by others like heroes and came to Li Bi. They bowed and hammered their chests.
Li Bi kept her eyes on the blazing bonfire, waved her hands casually, and said calmly: "You did a good job, take a good rest for two days. You haven't finished your work yet, so don't slack off."
Okay, let’s just say it.
This imperial servant's method is a bit low-level. You should give me a smile instead of a hug or something, right? Or maybe a promotion, a salary increase or something, that's fine too.
Li Po cursed as he led Li Chun to the campfire, sat down, smelled the aroma of the meat, and finally felt better.
Li Chun ran away for a while, and when he came back, he took a package in his hand, put it down, turned around and got another basin of water, then asked Li Po to take off his shirt, and began to clean his wounds carefully.
The wound on Li Po's shoulder was not deep, but it was quite long. There was no need to think about disinfecting it with strong alcohol. He could only rely on his own resistance.
However, some wound medicines are still very effective.
After Li Po was bandaged, Li Chun stayed beside Li Po with peace of mind, muttering that the eldest brother didn't take Xiaochun with him when he went out this time.
Li Po felt that this child was beginning to be of some use, but his female consciousness was slowly awakening. When he thought about it, he was very annoying.
When Li Po's stomach began to growl while waiting, the yellow sheep was finally roasted.
The people at the racecourse were busy serving tea and water to the people coming from the county, and also served barbecue.
All the heads of the racecourse were present, and they all gathered around Li Bi. It was actually no different from how they received the leaders later.
Officialdom has been the same for thousands of years, and it seems that it has never changed.
Of course, Li Po could barely be considered a member of the officialdom now. When he was enjoying his privileges, he didn't have the leisure to think about these matters of welcoming and sending off.
Put the barbecue into your mouth, well, the taste is so-so, I can only say it is better than fresh.
In Yuen Long, Li Wu and the others gathered around Li Po, eating with their mouths full of oil.
I only felt pity for Chen Er. He was injured a bit seriously. He didn't need to think about the yellow mutton. He couldn't drink wine yet. He could only watch helplessly as everyone feasted on them. He was eating pickles, corn rice, and a pot of boiled food next to him.
It turned into a mushy ghost, which looked really pitiful.
