Therefore, the tribe leader casually sent a small team over to check out the situation. If the situation was good, they would bring them back. If the situation was bad, they would just row away.
But having said that, there are only more than a thousand Shire horses domesticated by the Celts. After all, these horses eat a lot. Although the Celtics have a lot of pasture, they still need to consider the cost, so there is no
Be more tame.
"Yes, Your Highness." The knight commander bowed to the Pope and said that he would send someone to find out the situation.
"Speaking of which, are those domesticated horses valuable?" Although the Pope had the idea of making three poles if there were no dates, he was still a little curious about how high-end the so-called high-end war horses were.
"I have never seen this one, but I heard from some core members who know it that it is a super horse breed with a shoulder height of two meters and a weight of one ton." The knight commander said with some embarrassment. He also felt that this data was unreliable.
But in order to brag, there must be a template, and it is impossible to brag blindly, so he told the Pope the data he heard.
The Pope was stunned. There were also precious horses in the Yuan family's stables. These were all tribute horses from barbarians from all over the country. Although Yuan Tan gave most of them to the generals on the front line, he still kept a dozen of them.
Others don't dare to think about these war horses, but the Pope will ride them out for a walk when he is in a good mood.
Yuan Tan didn't raise any objections to this, and looked resigned. Therefore, the Pope at least knew what the shape of the war horse was. The horses in their stables were 1.7 meters tall at the withers, which was pretty good.
Tributes from local tribes.
In fact, the Yuan family in Sizhao City was really good in other aspects except being attacked by Rome. In this era, these people are all uncivilized barbarians. To say that these people are difficult to deal with, it is indeed difficult to deal with them.
But I also particularly recognize the strong.
Although Yuan Tan was an unlucky boy who was kicked out of the Han Dynasty, his current combat power is considered to be a powerful force that can be squeezed into one hand on earth. Naturally, the Siberian savages are no match for Yuan Tan, and Yuan Tan defeated them.
Later, they began to take the initiative to teach them how to reclaim wasteland and farm, change their customs, and bring these savages into a civilized society.
By now, these Siberian savages have basically recognized the Yuan family as the boss and the Han family as the eldest boss. After all, after experiencing the warm city, they then lived in a bunker in the snow. The blizzard was really unbearable, so most of these savage tribes
Come to me with gifts.
High-quality wild horses are the most common gift, and Yuan Tan does not reject anyone who comes.
"Two meters high?" The pope's voice was a little louder, "Weighing close to a ton? Are you kidding!"
At this time, apart from the Romans who had relatively standard weights and measures, other places in Europe had their own standards. The arrival of the Yuan family brought here the most advanced weights and measures system in the Central Plains.
However, precisely because it is a barbaric wilderness with nothing, it is quite simple to transform it. Therefore, the savages under Yuan's command now basically understand the concepts of various weights and measures, which are easy to use and often used. How can I be wrong?
"Your Highness, we are not talking nonsense. This is the conclusion I came to after asking specifically. And I think the people who know these war horses all gave the same answer. So even if there is a gap, I'm afraid the gap is not big. We can try it.
." The knight commander said carefully.
"Very good." The Pope nodded after hearing this, "In that case, quickly arrange for a trip to Great Britain. As for those previous thieves, if they are willing to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side, give them a chance. If not, you understand."
After the Pope's brain came online, he was still very powerful. When the Knight Commander heard this, he quickly nodded in agreement. To be honest, since the previous incident happened, even the Knight Commander who had no idea of betraying the Yuan family had no idea when facing the Pope.
Quite cowardly.
"Okay, you go arrange the manpower and see who is willing to go mine. I'll go back first." The Pope is in a good mood. The gems are about to be obtained. What's more important is that his Celtic family is actually a bit old. Hehehe
, although the pope who eats Yuan Tan every day has no pressure at all, maybe he needs to supplement a little. After all, breaking the world level is also a matter of face.
On the other side, Yong Kai half-deadly looked up at the gate of Sizhao City. Behind him were eighty shire horses. After several months of evaluation, the Yong family finally raised the shire horses to their peak form.
Their weight exceeds one ton, and their shoulder heights exceed two meters each.
Especially after grooming, every horse looks so cool.
Then under the will of the entire family, the Yongkai family took Yongmao's detailed evaluation report and took 80 shire horses to Sizhao City where the Yuan family was located.
If this is just the case, that's it. After the Yong family made some calculations, they felt that since the family had personally sent it to the Yuan family, in order not to bother the two masters, the family master would also send the war horses as tribute to Chang'an.
Forget it.
Calculating the time, it would only be more than July when we arrived at the Yuan family, and it would be August when we arrived at Congling. Then we would go to the western regions and pass through Liangzhou, and finally arrive at Chang'an. It seemed that we could just catch up with the Great Court Meeting, so the elders of the Yong family thought
I thought, I prepared some New Year gifts in advance for Yong Kai to bring.
After all, as a prince, if you don’t go to the imperial meeting, no one will say anything to you. After all, your body is not in Chang’an, and the country will not force you to do so. Likewise, if you don’t go in body, you can just write a congratulatory document, and then hand over the ingots for the annual festival.
, it can almost be fooled. After all, the situation in the Han Dynasty is not the same as during the reign of Emperor Wu, so we won't bother with those details.
By the way, there was a reason why Emperor Wu was so anxious that he directly paid gold to seize the title. In the fifth year of Yuanding, Emperor Wu ordered a conquest of South Vietnam. None of the Han princes responded and joined the army. Emperor Wu did not explode on the spot until the big sacrifice.
Only then was he ruthless, so he was patient.
When I was in my twenties, I would probably have shed blood on the spot just because of this incident.
However, there is some sense of propriety in this kind of thing. To put it simply, if you don’t go and deliver the gold, you can just write the New Year congratulations and that’s it. But now that you have gone, it’s not good to have empty hands. How much should you bring?
Order a gift and it will look good on your face.
The elders of the Yong family all went there as usual, and they just happened to participate in the court meeting, which proved that the Yong family was still alive and it was quite good to sing hymns.
Therefore, while tying up and sealing up the struggling and humiliating head of the family, he packed various gifts into boxes and sent people to haul them away together. Fortunately, Sharma's endurance and load-bearing capacity were terrible, and it was normal to drag several tons of things.
It's all drizzle.
It was so tragic that Yong Kai was packed up and shipped away, and now that he had arrived at Sizhao City of the Yuan family, Yong Kai didn't bother to scold his mother anymore, since those who scolded his family again wouldn't hear him.
"Long time no see, Marquis Shifang." When Yong Kai entered the city, he attracted a lot of people. After all, they had all seen horses, but to be honest, I had never seen such an outrageous horse, so the gatekeeper
Zhu Bao sent someone to notify Yuan Tan and hurried out to greet him.
Seeing that he was an acquaintance, Yong Kai smiled with difficulty, and then said, "General Zhu, things have been going well lately. My family has bred a number of good horses in Xinshifang. Although there are some flaws, they are far better than before.
, so I sent a group of them as stallions."
This thing is particularly delicious. This is Yong Kai's evaluation. However, the Yong family has so many reserves and is afraid that the Sharma will be overwhelmed. When leaving, the Yong family leader used a cart to pull many carts of grain and grass. Anyway,
The load and endurance of this thing are terrible. It has been fed all the way, so it doesn't even lose fat. It looks like the most muscular horse among horses.
"Please, please." Zhu Bao looked at these tall horses and almost salivated. They were taller than him. Their tendons and body shape were all guarantees of their combat effectiveness.
"Then I'll go in first." Yong Kai bowed his hands, and then led the group of horses into the city gate hole. When the people coming and going saw this thing, they all naturally gave way.
When Yuan Tan received the news, he came to pick up Yong Kai personally. After all, the Yong family is a very reliable younger brother of their Yuan family. Even if they are not strong, they have to be protected, not to mention the soldiers guarding the city gate.
The head of the Yong family personally brought a group of divine horses over. Yuan Tan was so fierce in boasting that I felt sorry for the Yong family if I didn't come out to see them.
So Yuan Tan went out to greet him personally, and was stunned. Is this a horse? Do you call this a horse? Are you sure this is not a mutated unicorn?
Especially the horse that Yong Kai rode was covered with weights all over its body. For a normal war horse, with this armor on it, it would be foaming at the mouth after running a few steps, but for a Sharma horse,
Even with a mere few hundred kilograms of weight, I can still reach a speed of forty kilometers per hour.
Although this speed can be easily achieved by top-level war horses in real life, let alone top-level war horses that have been strengthened by the essence of heaven and earth, it is very outrageous to run at this speed while wearing a load of several hundred kilograms, because most of them
Most horses weigh less than the armor on this horse under Yong Kai's crotch, and this horse's terrible endurance can wear this armor for a long time.
"Yehou." Yong Kai turned over and dismounted and saluted Yuan Tan. To be honest, Yong Kai really didn't know that the Yuan family had obtained the canonization document. He couldn't even come out of the house where he died, and he basically didn't receive any news from the outside, so it really wasn't
Offend Yuan Tan.
As for Yuan Tan, he was really shocked at this time. When Yong Kai gave him a gift, Yuan Tan forgot to return the gift. Is this a horse? Don't think that I will think you are a horse because you are covered with a layer of horse skin!
Wen on the side bumped into Yuan Tan secretly. Yuan Tan reacted and quickly returned Yong Kai's gift. Then he laughed and grabbed Yong Kai's hands and led Yong Kai through the door. Regardless of whether he was in a trance or not, this was their Yuan Tan.
The Yuan family is going to be in trouble. When I save 20,000 horses, I can kill your Romans. Can the heavy infantry defense line restrain the cavalry? Come on, restrain one!
