"Give me some don horses for Cossack cavalry."
Chutian dines in the hall of the southern main city. Opposite the long table is yekaterina. He asked Ekaterina for a number of first-class horses.
In Xuzhou and Yanzhou, the cost of raising ordinary war horses is very high. The land for raising an ordinary war horse can support more than ten people if it is used for farming. As for the first-class horses, they need good feed, and the cost is higher.
So Chu Tian had the idea of Ekaterina.
Yekaterina mentioned that she had a territory on the Don river, so the cost of raising horses was much lower. Dun hippopotamus is an excellent horse used by Cossack cavalry. If you can pit a batch of horses from yekaterina to go back to the Eastern Han Dynasty, you can save 100000 taels of silver, or 10000 taels of gold. For Ekaterina, the cost of training thousands of Don horses is less than 100000 taels of silver.
Ekaterina squinted. "What do you want to do with a hippopotamus?"
"Improve the horse breeds in the Central Plains of the Eastern Han Dynasty."
"All the horses in the army are gelding horses. You can't bring up offspring when you bring them back to the Eastern Han Dynasty. When I return to the Lord world, I can give you hundreds of stallions that have not been cut. But it's hard for you to improve the breed
Karina's trying to look at the man's improvement plan.
Chu Tian knows that she has a large number of cavalry and is an eagle on the prairie. She should have a good opinion on raising horses: "how do you say that?"
"First of all, because of the natural conditions there, if you don't take good care of the top class horses, a large number of them will die every year, and the breed will decline. If we take care of it carefully and maintain the breed, the horse administration will spend a lot. It may cost several times more to cultivate a top-grade horse from childhood than to buy it directly, because the purchased horse can be put into use immediately. "
"Secondly, if the base number of introduced good horses is too small, and the number of good horses to be improved is very large because of acclimatization every year, the breeding results may disappear in the process of backcross."
"What's more, it will take 10 years for the improvement of war horses to achieve any results, and 30 years to achieve remarkable results. This is still under the conditions of modern horse breeding improvement. Unless you think that the second generation of horses can achieve what you want, the probability is very small. "
"Finally, it's the soil and water problem. The improvement of horse breeds may fail, and there may be no ideal good breeding horses for two or three generations. Some ancient civilizations even spent hundreds of years improving horse breeds
What yekaterina said made Chu Tian need more detailed consideration.
It's OK to raise horses in farming areas, but only care for war horses when they are young. In addition, the death rate, variety degradation and opportunity cost of occupying cultivated land are much higher than those in nomadic areas. Superior horses are more likely to degenerate.
The main reason is that the war horse has been improved for too long. In modern times, it took ten years for the improvement of war horses to achieve initial results, and 30 years to achieve remarkable results.
Thirty years later, Chu Tian thought that he was in his fifties
In 30 years, Chu Tian thought he was enough to rob a horse farm.
"Give up the horses in your place. You can consider using Mongolian horse, Dawan horse and Dunhe horse to improve Ili horse. The breeding of Ili horse is based on the Dun hippopotamus. Or, the use of Mongolian horses, Baikal horses, Arab horses, improved Sanhe horse. However, you should have good pasture, such as alpine meadow, mountain meadow, mountain meadow grassland Otherwise, it will be extremely difficult to improve horse breeds, or extremely expensive, and may not be able to achieve the goal unless we have the resources and conditions of industrial civilization
Yekaterina talks.
Chutian's eyes brightened, and yekaterina was a talent.
No wonder she could be the biggest Lord of the Grand Duchy of Moscow.
Yekaterina saw Chu Tian staring at herself. Although her body was a little hot, she still asked anxiously, "what's the matter? I'm not right? "
"No, you're right. Having good pasture really reduces the burden. But improved horse breeds can be tried now to prepare for the next generation. This generation can't be used, and it can be used in the future. "
Chu Tian looked at yekaterina with a hot look in his eyes: "I really want to catch you back to the Eastern Han Dynasty to raise horses."
Ekaterina is a little angry. She can raise a child. How can she have a horse.
Chu Tian already knows.
It takes a lot of time and energy to improve the breed of horse.
In Chutian's generation, the speed of seizing horse production land was faster than that of improving horse breeds.
It takes time to improve the breed and can be done at the same time.
It may be ten or twenty years, or even thirty or fifty years before the indigenous horse breeds have changed dramatically.
"Let me go now?"
Of course, Chutian couldn't catch yekaterina to raise horses in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Whether Ekaterina was willing to let him go is a question.
"Who wants to keep you here, Sophia, take him away."
"Then I'll go."
"Wait..." Yekaterina regretted again and was quick to think, "how can I give you the stallion of the Don hippopotamus? Our territory should have a teleportation array. "With the transmission array, there will be a way to cheat Chu Tian to St. Petersburg
"Can a transmission array be established between the Eastern Han Dynasty and the cities of the Grand Duchy of Moscow?"
Chu Tian was a little surprised.
You know, his summer city is half a world away from Ekaterina's St. Petersburg. Exactly half the earth.
"St. Petersburg is the" World Trade node "of the Grand Duchy of Moscow. You should know that world trade nodes can be transmitted at a high price. If you, the world trade node of the Han Empire, are willing to sign an open transmission array treaty with St. Petersburg, I can send someone to take horses from St. Petersburg to the western regions capital guard, and then use the western regions capital to other cities in the Eastern Han Dynasty. "
Yekaterina explains.
In fact, it is also very simple, that is, from St. Petersburg to the western regions, and then from the western regions to Xiacheng.
The world trade node is very important, which ensures the circulation of specialty products and population, and is also a way to carry out expeditions.
As the two world trade nodes in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the capital of the western regions and Nanhai Prefecture, respectively representing the land Silk Road and the maritime Silk Road, were occupied by Huoan, the capital of the western regions, and Defa, the Mu king of Jiaozhou.
The relationship between huo'an and Chu Tian is OK. It should not be a problem to sign the Treaty of St. Petersburg and the western regions capital.
In theory, it is possible to use teleportation array to attack other civilizations, but Chu Tian doesn't have to worry too much.
Transmission array can only transmit hundreds of people at most at a time, and the cost is very high. Unless a lord is rich enough, he will send troops directly from St. Petersburg to attack the western regions capital. Hundreds of people were sent at a time, just to die.
Moreover, the teleportation array is mutual, and the garrison of the western regions can send troops to St. Petersburg.
St. Petersburg is a bridgehead to attack northern and Eastern Europe.
If he had money in the future, Chutian would not mind taking 100000 troops to St. Petersburg for sightseeing.
"There's no problem with opening the teleport array, but you'll give me 20000 donhe horses and 30000 other horses. Fifty thousand horses should not be a big problem for you who own a ranch. It's very useful to go back to the main world. In consideration, I will give you a sum of gold and silver. "
Chu Tian gained a lot of booty in the national war. He seized a large number of gold and silver ornaments from the dead enemy and the throne of Suleiman. Chu Tian Tong exchanged it with Ekaterina.
Yekaterina has a vast grassland, more than Xu Fengnian's Longxi horses. Plus personal relationships
In exchange of interests on the battlefield of the national war, the cost of transmitting array does not need to be considered. Chu Tian can buy three horses from Ekaterina at the price of one horse purchased from Xu Fengnian!
Of course, with yekaterina's consent.
When it comes to business, Ekaterina is serious and refuses to step back.
"Don't forget that you are still my servant, and you should obey the master's request. Otherwise... "
Chu Tian had to take out the hemp rope that yekaterina had given him in order to buy 50000 fine horses at one-third of the market price.
Although yekaterina was a pervert, Chu Tian had to sacrifice himself for 50000 horses
"No, it's 50000 horses I I will never promise... "
Ekaterina is determined.
About two hours later, yekaterina finally decided to sell 50000 horses to Chutian.
Fifty thousand horses were nothing to her. In this national war, more than 50000 horses were captured. Yekaterina used her forces to conquer the Cossack tribes in the Don River Basin. She did not know the number of horses she had.
Chutian takes over yekaterina and gets 50000 horses. Yekaterina promises that after the launch of the transmission array, she will send the excellent stallion of the Don hippopotamus to Xiacheng, and then she leaves yekaterina's room with satisfaction.
Chu Tian's ministers are anxiously waiting for their Lord's return. Their Lord suddenly disappeared last night, even Dianwei did not know.
Joan of arc and Li Xiuning asked for someone from Sophia. Sophia did not know about it when she asked, but both sides almost conflicted.
When Chu Tian came out, he resolved the tension between the two sides.
Li Xiuning seems to see something. After all, she is as smart as the cool summer.
It's not complicated to say it's complicated, and it's not simple to say it's simple.
Chu Tian came to Huoan to discuss the Silk Road with Europe. Huo'an's western region capital guard house was originally the eastern and Western transit station, and he was happy to open the transmission array with St. Petersburg: "as long as we strengthen the monitoring of the transmission array and close the transmission array in time, the European Legion can't enter the western region capital guard house."
"Then it's up to you."
Chutian only needs to wait for yekaterina to deliver the hippopotamus stallion according to the agreement.
Chu Tian also purchased a number of Dawan horses from Huoan, and carried out a small-scale improvement plan for horses. He used Dunhe horse and Dawan horse to improve the war horses in the Central Plains.
However, the cost of raising good horses in the Central Plains is high and the time is long. The military horses purchased at ordinary times are fanning horses, so they can't breed offspring.Before seizing the land of producing horses, the source of good horses was still bought.
Yekaterina's 50000 horses are enough for Chutian to spend a period of time. What's more, Chu Tian captured a lot of horses in the war, including Mongolian horses and Arabian horses However, the vast majority of war horses are gelding horses and lose the ability to reproduce.
"With St. Petersburg in the future, will we not be able to send troops to Eastern Europe?"
Hoan thought.
"It also depends on whether yekaterina agrees. She should not want our army to step on her territory."
Chutian drew a line between the individual and the territory, and yekaterina mostly did the same.
Unless there are common interests, she will allow the Han Army to appear in Eastern Europe.
Huo an thought, it is true: "and from the western regions to St. Petersburg, the cost is not small. It is estimated that a soldier needs 20 or 30 Liang. A hundred thousand troops is two million taels or even three million taels of silver. "
Chu Tian and huo'an both shook their heads at the thought of this astronomical number.
Only by organizing special expeditions could such a high price be spared.
"The national war is coming to an end, and Tiemuzhen has no chance to fight against Chaochao in a short period of time. In order to be on guard, Cao Cao, Wei Qing and Leyi swept the enemies nearby."
In order to suppress tie Muzhen in the last period of the national war, Chu Tian sent commanders such as Wei Qing, Cao Cao and Le Yi to sweep the nearby civilization and continue to brush points.
In the first World War in the southern main city, Cao Cao served as the substitute of Chu Tian, which was considered as Cao Cao's casting name. He ran in with Wei Qing, Le Yi, Zhou Yafu and other army leaders for the first time.
Wei Qing and Zhou Yafu may not have Cao Cao's omnipotence, but the ability of commanding troops and horses is almost the same as Cao Cao's, and they are in the ranks of Army leaders.
Cao Cao's loyalty also increased, and with Chu Tian's "Han Wu" characteristics, Cao Cao's loyalty increased more.
Next, just wait until the end of the war.
During that time, she gave it to Katrina. In any case, after returning to the Grand Duchy of Moscow, she would soon be able to replenish her horses.
"These horses lost a lot of weight after the national war and needed good health care."
Ekaterina was obviously familiar with the horses.
Chu Tian took over 50000 horses and paid a lot of gold and silver to give the throne of Suleiman to yekaterina.
Ekaterina won the throne of Suleiman the great, and her reputation in Europe will soar, because Suleiman is one of the enemies of Europe.
For Chu Tian, Suleiman's throne is just a piece of gold inlaid with gems, which is used to exchange for war horses.
Yekaterina and Joan of arc, Li Xiuning look at each other, vaguely hostile.
As the national war was coming to an end, Tiemuzhen, who was besieging the city of the Mughal Empire, found that he had no chance to catch up with Chu, because Chu Tian's points were still increasing.
Due to the lack of Xiangyang cannons and other large-scale siege equipment, Mongolian cavalry's siege ability is not strong, so they can only rely on their servants to attack the city.
Krasu, one of the three giants of Rome, was brought by Mongolian cavalry to meet Tiemuzhen, the commander of the war.
Krasu was sweating profusely in front of the Oriental demon king.
"The national war will soon be over. You will be taken to Mobei to serve me. You can live. If you have a talent... "
Tiemuzhen used a dagger to cross Kelasu's throat. Kelasu felt the chill of the dagger and swallowed his mouth: "money, I am willing to redeem my freedom with 10000 taels of gold!"
Tiemuzhen said coldly, "no, you need to help me get one million taels of gold."
