Chapter 68: How to Increase Horse Production

So these things must first be put into his hands to make contributions, which made him couldn't help but feel excited.

"It's not enough." Li Feng looked at a few people and said: "These things can only form fire suppression when attacking the city. When climbing the city, we have to rely on ladders to climb. The casualties will be too high. We can't always think about relying on internal response.

Bar."

Su Dujue finished a few vegetable leaves and said: "We have considered what your majesty said. I have done a lot of research on this. I sent people to find two Luban descendants and formed a team of craftsmen.

Now this team is working hard to make a batch of ditch bridges, rush cars, well gates, and Lugong cars, but the projects of these things are huge and time-consuming, so the number is not large at the moment."

"Okay, these things are bulky ordnance. They don't need to be too many, but one must be prepared for each big city." After saying that, Li Feng took out another thing from his body and looked at a few people:

"As for horses, cavalry is an extremely important branch of the field army, so war horses are indispensable. Feizi, our ancestor of the Qin Dynasty, started his career by raising horses. There are seven horse farms in Guanzhong. I know that 3 have been restored. I don't know how many horses are produced.

.”

When asked, several people fell silent. It had been less than two years since Da Qin had stood up again, but it had accomplished a lot. The racecourse incident was just one of them. Now, in terms of results, no one could guarantee that the emperor would be satisfied.

Li Feng saw the difficulties of several people, so he had to call them by name: "Meng Rui, tell me."

"There are about 7,000 mature horses available, but the ministers are incompetent. The current pasture management is loose, the horse breeds are insufficient, and the training of war horses is chaotic. This is really a major flaw in our current government."

Li Feng sighed helplessly and expressed his understanding. He originally wanted to develop the historical Mongolian cavalry's joint attack strategy of light cavalry and heavy cavalry in advance.

But now it seems that it will have to be postponed for a while.

The issue of horse breeds and the number of war horses has not been addressed, so everything is empty talk.

He thought of horse politics. Historically, the Central Plains dynasty's major disadvantage when facing nomads was the lack of horses.

Once this problem was solved, the cavalry of the Han and Tang Dynasties came out one after another.

Of course, the Song Dynasty was an exception in history, because the superstructure was extremely weak.

The country name "Song" is also poisonous. "Song" means both "coward" and "give away".

No wonder later on, either he liked "big gifts" or he was a psychopath and a tyrant.

However, in order to solve the problem of war horses, the horse administration system of the Zhao and Song Dynasties that combined "herding horses" and "market horses" was actually very practical and could be used in other ways to make it your own.

Li Feng needs to recall the specific details carefully, and then let Meng Rui handle it when he has a detailed plan.

"Let's not mention the horses for now. I will think of a solution later. You should also pay more attention to strive for higher output. There is one more thing I want to tell you today."

Later, Li Feng informed everyone about Fan Zeng's return to his hometown, which Zan had not panicked about.

And expressed his intention: "What I mean is to get rid of Fan Zeng, an old man, in Zhu County, and then try to involve Wu Rui and Liu Bang.

Wu Rui is Yingbu's father-in-law. In this way, while getting rid of Fan Zeng, he can also cause unrest within the Chu army. It can be said that he kills two birds with one stone, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, this plan is very clever."

"Well, then which one of you is willing to take this deal?"

"Your Majesty, I will take charge. The two centurions lurking under Wu Rui happen to be my men, and Ji Bu is an extraordinary martial artist. During the battle of Guanpu, I saw how majestic he was, so I wanted to personally

I'll meet him, but it's a pity that he surrendered after the Battle of Zhanghan Julu and never had a chance. Now it's time to try his skills."

"Okay, as usual, one person is needed to be the deputy to check for deficiencies. Which of you will do it?" Li Feng knew and understood Bai Zhan's past. He was not a vegetarian.

"I'll go."

Han Xin stood up and volunteered: "Your Majesty, Fan Zeng and Ji Bu and I are old acquaintances, so I just want to give them a ride."

"Look, one has a technical itch, and the other wants to send his old friend off. It's really interesting. But I don't care, as long as I can complete the task. I only have one request. Xiang Yu and others can't have a good year this year."

Li Feng smiled and raised his glass: "Here, I wish them both immediate success."

After everyone drank, Li Feng continued to add: "Tomorrow at noon, I will ask Zan to go to Bai Zhan's house to find you. You can find out the specific situation from him. You can go out personally. I have no objection, but remember not to fall into the enemy's plot.

, compensate yourself for it.”

"I understand."

"Okay, everyone is open to eating and playing. The famous piano, percussion and construction band from Xianyang City will come up to perform later. All the expenses today will be paid by General Meng."

Meng Rui: "????..."

Everyone looked at Meng Rui: "!!!!..."

"By the way, after you finish eating the hot pot, bury the pot under this pavilion. If it doesn't melt away, it can be regarded as leaving some antiques for future generations." Li Feng stood up and took the child from Qin Yu: "I'll return it.

If you have anything to do, just leave first."

Seeing the emperor's shadow retreating away, everyone was in a state of confusion.

But it's okay, since there's no immediate boss present, everyone doesn't have to worry about anything, and it's more fun.

.......

Since the Spring Festival for the descendants of the Yan and Huang Dynasties, the twelfth lunar month has been the busiest and happiest day for the Chinese people. After a year of busy work, it is time to enjoy the fruits, no matter from the princes, generals or ordinary people, there is no exception.

As the emperor, Li Feng had a New Year's Eve dinner with the army lieutenants in advance, and quickly took care of some trivial matters. After Bai Zhan and Han Xin settled the matter, he could safely take Qin Yu, mother and son back to her parents' home to celebrate the New Year.

The Ying clan had been completely wiped out by Xiang Yu, and Li Feng had no direct relatives to answer to.

As for the affairs in the palace, just leave it to Li Yanran, a big-bellied woman, to take charge, and Aunt Xiao to assist.

After bringing them back, Li Feng gave Aunt Xiao a lot of power, and she worked very hard. Not only did she take good care of Li Yanran, a pregnant woman, but she also acted as a housekeeper and assisted the queen in managing the harem.

.......

At the Prime Minister's Mansion in Pengcheng, Fan Zeng was also packing up his bags, preparing to return to his hometown to catch up with old friends.

The reason why he attaches so much importance is that this old friend is actually not an ordinary person, but Fan Zeng's senior brother. As soon as he heard that his senior brother wanted to recruit him, he couldn't wait.

The senior brother is a man who knows everything about divination and astrology, so he just took this opportunity to ask Xiang Yu about his fortune-telling skills.

"Ji Bu, bring me more candy bars and wheat cakes. Senior brother likes to eat those things."

"Okay, Father, don't worry, Overlord has already prepared it."

"Father, you haven't even recovered from the maggots on your back, but you're leaving in such a hurry. Yu'er is really worried." Xiang Yu helped Yu Ji walk towards this side, followed by Kang Jie.
