Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 182 Picking a War Horse 1
After the banquet, Gongsun Xu said to Zhao Yun: "Tomorrow, ten thousand war horses will be transferred from the racecourse. Remember to mix them with good and bad, and let them choose tomorrow. I would like to see what the representatives of these princes have. What's so special about it."

After hearing this, Zhao Yun asked: "Is ten thousand war horses a bit too much? It seems that there is no need for this. Thousands of horses are enough."

Gongsun Xu shook his head and replied: "No, the selection of war horses tomorrow is actually related to our war horse business. I want them to see the strength of our northern border. How can we deter them if we don't take out ten thousand war horses? You just do it Let's see how they react tomorrow."

Zhao Yun nodded to express his understanding. Anyway, ten thousand war horses is not difficult. It depends on how the representatives of the princes choose the horses tomorrow.

On the second day, Gongsun Xu was still escorted by Dian Wei and others to the barracks, and the representatives of the princes also came early, especially those generals, who were all gearing up to choose their horses, and they waited for Gongsun Xu to give an order.

Seeing everyone's excitement, Gongsun Xu smiled and said, "This time, the selection of horses will be carried out at the horse farm behind the barracks. However, the specific method will not be disclosed. Let me tell you one thing first. Besides you can choose the horses, I will Some of the soldiers under his command will also participate.

This time, all the top [-] martial arts performers in the military can participate in this horse selection activity, and the top [-] performers in civil martial arts can also participate.

In the process of choosing a horse, there may be disputes. After all, BMW is hard to find. If two or more people have their eyes on the same horse, it is inevitable to snatch it. Let me declare first that everyone must be kind. , don't hurt your peace because of the war horse.

The number of people involved in the selection of war horses will not exceed two hundred, but the number of war horses reaches ten thousand, that is to say, I can guarantee that everyone can choose a good horse. As for whether the talisman meets your wishes, then I have no control over it. "

Everyone felt itchy when they heard this. There are tens of thousands of war horses, and they are all war horses in the northern Xinjiang army. It is a kind of enjoyment to choose one's own mount from so many war horses. Many generals can't wait.

At this time, Huang Xu stepped forward and asked, "Master, I wonder if I can participate."

Gongsun Xu laughed and said: "Of course, you, Dianman, and the [-] lieutenants from the Qinbingwei Youth Battalion can all participate. Of course, if Yide and the others want to participate, it is also possible. There are so many horses , there is always something that can meet your requirements.”

The guards nearby all cheered when they heard this, and Gongsun Xu continued with a smile: "If I didn't have both a mount and an auxiliary mount, maybe I would also participate in this event? The difficulty of this event and I won’t explain how exciting it is, you will know everything later.”

As soon as Gongsun Xu finished speaking, Sun Ce immediately stepped forward and said, "General, my righteous brother Zhou Yu is also good at dancing swords. I wonder if he can participate?"

Gongsun Xu turned his head and stared at Zhou Yu who was beside Sun Ce for a few moments. Zhou Yu is still young and cannot see the demeanor of a feather fan and a scarf. Brother, your righteous brother is my righteous brother, and he is also good at sword dancing, of course he can participate."

Sun Ce laughed and said, "Since this is the case, brother, I have an unfeeling request from you. My sister, Shangxiang, is over ten years old now. After hearing my story about how we defeated the Huns in Hedong and the grasslands, my little sister I admire my elder brother very much.

My little sister has a different temperament from ordinary girls. Since he was a child, he has been pestering me to teach him martial arts. In addition, he likes to dance with guns and sticks. Now, he also considers himself a female general, but he has never had a suitable mount. ,,,,,,"

Before Sun Ce finished speaking, Gongsun Xu smiled and said: "Well, you Sun Ce, you just want a free war horse, and you have made so many detours with me. Let me tell you first, you are still young, I'm afraid It is not suitable for adult war horses, you have to remember this, as for the others, you can figure it out yourself, just treat it as a gift from me to my little sister."

"Thank you, brother, I understand." Sun Ce happily replied, completely ignoring the jealous eyes of Gao Lan, Ji Ling and others behind him.

This Sun Ce, who seems careless, has put so much thought into it. Just for a while, Sun Ce has two more horses than others with just a few words. This kid is really unkind. The urge to push Sun Ce to the ground and beat him up.

However, this kind of thinking is just thinking about it. They dare not understand Sun Ce in front of Gongsun Xu. After all, Sun Ce is still his sworn brother.

Seeing that everyone couldn't wait any longer, Gongsun Xu smiled and said: "Okay, come with me, the racecourse is huge, don't get lost, there are heavy guards around the racecourse, if you go to the wrong place, you may be caught. The soldiers under my command were arrested.

I don't want any surprises for you, understand? "

Everyone heard that it was Gongsun Xu who was warning them not to mess around, so everyone responded cooperatively: "Understood."

After getting everyone's reply, Gongsun Xu smiled and led everyone towards the place where the horses gathered.

After a while, everyone arrived at their destination. At this moment, what was in front of everyone was a magnificent scene: tens of thousands of war horses gathered together, either taking a leisurely walk, chasing and playing, or eating forage. When these ten thousand war horses appeared in front of everyone, many people couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

Many of these people have also seen this kind of scene, but this kind of scene is still relatively rare. In the Central Plains, how can there be such good conditions to get tens of thousands of war horses for people to watch? Only the northern grasslands can There are so many war horses in captivity.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were straightened, Gongsun Xu couldn't help laughing and said, "Everyone, the selection of war horses has already begun, so don't just sit here and watch. Today, no matter what kind of war horse you pick, it will be thousands of miles away." Pick a good horse."

After hearing this, Huang Xudianman and the two didn't hesitate, they immediately wandered around the group of horses, and from time to time they pulled a horse to look left and right, and even went up to touch it. When they felt dissatisfied, they immediately changed to another batch. war horse.

The top [-] soldiers performing martial arts in the army and Gongsun Xu's personal guard captain still stood there without moving. They didn't seem to be in a hurry, but they were right when they thought about it. There are so many war horses, what's the rush? OK inside.

Compared to Huang Xu and Dianman's activeness, the rest of the people seemed a little overwhelmed. Huang Xu and Dianman dared to do this, obviously because they had a lot of contact with war horses, and they were familiar with the habits and appearance of many horses. Although they are young, they are obviously veterans by looking at their posture.

Sun Ce was also in a hurry at this time, and he immediately ran to Huang Xu and Dianman to please him and said, "Hey, let me say, two brothers, can you help me pick a good horse too? Uh, no, help me pick three good horses." Yes, you can not."

After hearing this, Huang Xu said without turning his head: "Stop making trouble, our war horses haven't been picked yet, so let's pick them together, if there are good ones, you can help us lead them first, and wait for more than a dozen horses to be picked. Alright, when the time comes, we'll pick the best from here."

After hearing this, Dianman said anxiously: "Yes, hurry up, we pick, you are responsible for leading, don't wait for them to rush forward."

"Okay, I can do this, hahaha, no problem." Sun Ce replied with a smile.

On the other side, Gao Lan and Ji Ling looked at each other and immediately followed Huang Xu to choose war horses. Anyway, Huang Xu just said that they would pick the best dozen horses, and wait for them to choose from the best dozen horses. After choosing your own among the horses, the rest is yours.

I have to say that Gao Lan and Ji Ling's little calculation is really good. The most important thing is that if they do this, it will save trouble and convenience. Moreover, the quality of the selected war horses is also high. There is no other way. , who said that these two generals don't know much about war horses?

However, other people are not so lucky. They have almost no friendship with Huang Xu, the two young generals, and they have no time to help them. Besides, there are only so many BMW horses. It's good to choose by yourself, so how can you have time to help others?

Seeing Huang Xu and others busy, Gongsun Xu couldn't help laughing. At this time, Cao Ren walked up to Gongsun Xu and said, "General, I have a merciless request."

"You said, as long as it's not too much, I can satisfy your request." Gongsun continued with a smile.

"It's like this, this time, my lord sent me here, mainly for my two nephews to experience it." Cao Ren pointed at the two teenagers behind him after speaking.

Then, Cao Ren continued to introduce: "They are called Cao Ang and Cao Chun, and they are the two best children in the younger generation of my family. Today is a rare opportunity. I wonder if the general can let these two also choose their own mounts. Of course , I will buy the mounts I choose at a high price, and I will never let the general suffer."

After hearing this, Gongsun Xu looked at the two young men who were about the same age as himself behind Cao Ren. He said they were teenagers, but in fact, they were closer to youths in appearance. They both looked like young men.

After hearing this, Gongsun Xu glanced at Cao Ren, and then, Gongsun Xu smiled and said, "Well, don't talk about money or not, just treat it as a gift from me to Eldest Young Master and Cao Family Qianliju."

After Cao Ren heard this, he was shocked. It turned out that Gongsun Xu had already pointed out the identities of these two people. Cao Ang was Cao Cao's eldest son, the eldest son that Gongsun Xu said, and Cao Chun was nicknamed the Cao family by his elders since he was a child. Qian Liju and Cao Ren now feel a sense of fear towards Gongsun Xu.

Now that he was found out, Cao Ren was embarrassed to continue to hide it. He was about to explain, but Gongsun Xu waved his hand to stop him and said, "Go and prepare to choose a horse. You and I know some things well. I am not a person without measure."

Hearing what Gongsun Xu said, Cao Ren was determined, and he immediately replied respectfully: "Thank you, General, I will definitely report this to my lord according to the truth. My lord will definitely remember the general's kindness."

After finishing speaking, Cao Ren turned around and explained the key points of choosing a horse to the two behind him.
