As a lord, I was forced to farm

Chapter 981 Production
Zheng was shocked. It was not uncommon for mares to give birth in the horse farm, but what caused such a commotion was that the horse was about to give birth!

He didn't even bother feeding the wild blue horse. He pressed Little Purple's head into his pocket to make sure she was safe, and then immediately rushed to the vicinity of the birthing room with the other horse herders.

"Brother Zheng!"

Zheng Da held a prominent position at the horse farm, and many horse handlers greeted him as he approached.

Everyone's eyes held a mixture of tension and anticipation, and Zheng Da was no exception. He quickly asked, "How is it? Have Commander Mu and the others arrived?"

Speak of the devil, and he appears! Li Peilian and Maha strode over, carrying tools and looking serious.

Looking at the gathered horse herders, Maha said sternly, "Don't all gather here, go and do your own things!"

Although everyone succumbed to Mah's tyranny, they were too concerned about the horses that were about to give birth, and they were all absentmindedly circling around the birthing room.

Li Peilian continued walking and entered the production room with several experienced horse breeders.

Stepping through the door, I was surprised to see the Wind Spirit Horse.

The Wind Spirit Horse is light blue all over, with a long mane, a height of nearly two meters, a slender build, but muscles as hard as an old ox's sinew. When it runs, it emits a faint blue light, making it naturally elegant and extraordinary.

The spirit horse before them, however, had lost its graceful bearing. It was now heavily pregnant, its smooth mane soaked with sweat, streaked with clumps and bits of grass, making it look disheveled and in pain.

Yes, this is a spirit horse that is pregnant with new life!
But the Wind Spirit Horses are monopolized by the Da Ce County City. All the Wind Spirit male horses that have been lost have been castrated. How could this Wind Spirit mare be pregnant?
That's because it wasn't the Wind Spirit stallion that caused the Wind Spirit mare to get pregnant, but the Wild Green stallion!

This spirit horse was a healthy mare that I bought from a merchant long before I captured Chaolian County, and it has been kept on the ranch ever since.

Although there are almost no uncastrated Fengling stallions circulating in the market, some horse dealers have not given up on the idea of ​​breeding Fengling horses and have therefore considered breeding them with other horse breeds.

However, the Fengling horse is already the best existing breed of horse with perfect genes. When other breeds of stallions are mated with the Fengling horse, the offspring will hardly inherit the mother's excellent genes. In particular, when ordinary horses are mated with the Fengling horse, the offspring will basically only be ordinary horses. At most, the physique of these ordinary horse calves will be much better than that of other ordinary horses.

But Li Peilian thought that the Wild Green Horse's genes were no less than those of the Wind Spirit Horse, and it was even stronger and more powerful than the Wind Spirit Horse. If the Wind Spirit Horse and the Wild Green Horse were to crossbreed, would their offspring inherit the superior genes of either the Wild Green Horse or the Wind Spirit Horse?

Therefore, at Xisong Ranch, the horse herders intentionally allowed Fengling Horse and Huangqing Horse to bond.

However, both types of spirit horses are very proud, and it is not easy to get them to communicate. In nearly a year, the group has only managed to get forty-eight wind spirit horses pregnant. The wind spirit horse in front of them is the first pregnant mare about to give birth!

"Chief Shepherd, the base of Little Firefly's tail is wet; her water must have broken!" Little Firefly is the name of the pregnant mare.

Little Firefly lay down and stood up repeatedly until she finally stopped moving on the fourth time. She lay on her side, legs outstretched, neck on the ground, her breathing heavy, her belly heaving violently. An experienced midwife noticed Little Firefly's unusually large belly and suspected twins. Her expression turned grave. "A mare usually only gives birth to one calf at a time. This is Little Firefly's first birth, and she's crossbred with a Wild Blue Horse. The situation is somewhat dangerous!"

As they talked, the midwives worked quickly and efficiently, preparing elixirs to replenish Xiao Ying's strength and keeping a close eye on her condition.

The commotion in its belly grew stronger and stronger. Suddenly, two front hooves appeared, covered by a thin layer of grayish-white fetal membrane, huddled together, one in front of the other as if bowing. Then came its nose, shoulders...

However, once her shoulder was exposed, the mare's breathing became even heavier—her shoulder was stuck!
The reason is that the calf's shoulders seemed to be wrapped with something, making its shoulders, which were wider than those of a typical Wind Spirit Horse calf, stuck in the mother's narrow birth canal!
“It’s the bronze armor of the Wild Blue Horse!” Li Peilian’s heart skipped a beat. She had excellent eyesight. This cub had the flowing hair of the Wind Spirit Horse, but it also had the armor of the Wild Blue Horse!

"Quickly, think of a way to ensure this cub is born safely!"

The midwife immediately stepped in to help. Fortunately, the midwife had previously bonded with Xiaoying, and the Wind Spirit Horse was quite intelligent, knowing that these humans were helping it, so it did not react excessively.

Sweating profusely, the team adjusted the foal's birthing position and fed the mare some energy-boosting liquid. With the combined efforts of the mare and the midwives, the foal slid out as the mare arched her back once more.

"it is good!"

The group cheered, and the midwife who had determined that the mare was carrying twins didn't relax. She touched the mare's belly and shouted, "There's another one! Keep it up!"

After the first pony came out, the second one went much more smoothly, and soon another foal was born!

The first foal was larger, and after the mare gently licked the mucus off its body, it actually stood up shakily!
The second cub was thinner, its four legs trembling like grass in the wind. After standing for a short while, it lost its strength and lay down on the ground.

Li Peilian examined the two foals. In terms of appearance, the two foals were somewhat different.

The eldest brother inherited the coat color of the Wind Spirit Horse, which was light blue. He had long limbs and some bronze armor pieces scattered on his body, located on his knees, shoulders and near his heart.

The second son inherited the blue color of the Wild Blue Horse, and his limbs were shorter, making him more like a Wild Blue Horse with a stable and low-slung base. However, the second son was completely unarmored, with a bare body, but his mane was quite long, like that of the Wind Spirit Horse.

"These two foals look completely different!" The group exclaimed in surprise as they looked at the two foals.

"This boss is quite burly; no wonder Xiaoying suffered so much."

Although the two foals were born safely, everyone was still a little uneasy. They turned their attention to Li Peilian, and Maha quickly asked, "Chief Shepherd, how are these two horses? Are they promising talents?"

Li Peilian nodded and then shook her head. "Now it seems that the spirit horse is definitely a spirit horse, but this is also the first time that the wind spirit horse and the wild blue horse have been crossbred. Whether it is good or bad, we still have to see."
