Datang: I show my cards, I am the emperor

Chapter 120 The Cultivation of War Horses, Du Ruhui suddenly realized [New Book Seeking Customization]

Unexpectedly, he got a harvest beyond his imagination, Du Ruhui's spirit couldn't help but be more excited, and his interest in talking between words was also greatly improved.

After silently remembering some of the detailed information he had just gotten, Du Ruhui then extended the topic outward.

Anyway, I'm here all the time, so I have to seize the opportunity to ask some key questions, so that I can make a reference for myself, and then slowly change it in the future.

After Du Ruhui's eyes rolled around a few times, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he immediately thought of a key question.

"Shopkeeper Wang, as far as I know, among the military department, there are subordinate divisions, treasury divisions, driving divisions and staff divisions. "

"I don't have anything else to say, but this driver is a little concerned. "

"Although there are a lot of horses in my Datang, they are just horses used to pull goods and carts every day, but the number of war horses seems to be very small. "

"You said that this problem of extreme shortage of war horses, how should it be properly solved?"

Wang Chen suddenly looked at him a little speechless.

"Why do you care about the issue of war horses, is it possible that the Ministry of War asked you to help them raise war horses?"

Du Ruhui immediately waved his hand a little embarrassed.

"How is it possible, the war horses of the military department are different from the horses we are looking for and pull the carriage, and they can't be compared at all. "

"The war horses that can go to the battlefield will not need us ordinary merchants to raise them, I just want to take over this business, and it is impossible to delegate it to us. "

Wang Chen spread his hands.

"In that case, then why are you still entangled in this, the source of the war horse is naturally known to the imperial court, and it is really unnecessary for you to worry so much about a small businessman. "

Du Ruhui scratched his head.

"Aren't I also curious, after all, according to your analysis, Brother Wang, at most, within a year or two, my lobby will start a war with the Turks, and if there is a lack of high-quality war horses, it will definitely not work. "

"Therefore, I also have some concerns in my heart, what kind of deployment will the imperial court make for this, you might as well give me a solution, right?"

Wang Chen sighed, his finger knuckles lightly tapped on the table.

"I said Lao Du, you guys are really a bunch of weirdos, and Lao Li is the leader, which has brought this atmosphere to ruin. "

"Obviously a group of businessmen, they don't talk about business or Fengyue in their spare time, and they make up some court affairs all day long. "

"The court didn't invite you to be officials, it's just burying talents. "

Speaking of this, Wang Chen couldn't help but complain in his heart.

These guys all like to discuss politics, one or two, and they like to analyze and discuss various policies and situations of the imperial court.

This kind of personality is really uncommon in ancient times, of course, it can't be right, there are always some people who like to sit in teahouses and taverns and talk about the world.

After all, the Tang Dynasty was not so strict with speech, and it was still in a state of relaxed environment, so it was quite common for a group of businessmen who had nothing to do and didn't know what to do when they were full.

Therefore, Wang Chen, who was accustomed to the character of his group of friends, saw Du Ruhui scratching his head uncontrollably by what he said, and his face was full of sneer.

I had to sigh, then leaned back in my chair and crossed my feet.

"Okay, okay, I'll reluctantly give you, a member of the gossip party, and talk about the imperial court's measures in horse politics. "

Although Du Ruhui didn't understand what the gossip party meant, he still nodded energetically, and then waited a little intently for what Wang Chen said next.

Wang Chen only raised one finger this time.

"Cultivating war horses and cultivating ordinary horses are completely different in nature, ordinary horses have stronger endurance and can withstand hard work. "

"But it is very unsuitable for galloping back and forth on the battlefield, running thousands of miles, so it is necessary to breed horses with good breeds and tall and strong physiques. "

"And the real key factor in breeding war horses, one is money, and the other is horse breed. "

"In terms of my current strength in the Tang Dynasty, in general, there is no shortage of money, at least the imperial court wants to breed war horses, and this money can definitely be taken. "

"The real difficulty lies in the breed of horses, which is the key to the imperial court's plan to breed war horses. "

After listening to this, Du Ruhui couldn't help but nodded, in fact, this is also the difficulty of breeding war horses in Datang.

The imperial court is not short of money now, but it doesn't know how to do it.

Not to mention that Du Ruhui, the secretary of the military department, cares about this issue, even the emperor Li Shimin, who often has headaches because of this.

Wang Chen saw that Lao Du was listening carefully, so he changed his posture, and then continued: "If you want to get a good horse breed, you either buy it, change it, or grab it!"

"Normal purchase, I don't need to say much about this method, among the two Khans of the Northern Turks, the Turki Khan is the existence of my Datang. "

"Let the imperial court contact him and quietly purchase a batch of excellent horse breeds, presumably this is not difficult at all. "

"If we talk about exchange, it has to do with the arms trade I just mentioned, selling weapons to small countries, but not for money, for their good horses. "

"For example, in Silla, there are tall Liaodong white horses in this country, and if they are used for breeding, they will be larger, and they will definitely give birth to war horses that inherit the characteristics of tallness. "

Du Ruhui was stunned for a moment.

What the?

In that part of the Liaodong Peninsula, there are still excellent breeds of war horses, and he really doesn't know about this.

In the concept of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces and even the Son of Heaven Li Shimin, the territory of Liaodong occupied by Goryeo is nothing more than a group of bitter haha.

Ambition is really ambitious, but poor is also very poor, I didn't expect them to have a Liaodong white horse worthy of the praise of the king's shopkeeper.

Unbelievable, this key information should be recorded as soon as possible, and it seems that trading with Silla is an indispensable part.

After writing down these two items, Du Ruhui hurriedly asked, "What kind of robbery is it?"

Wang Chen put down his upturned feet and drank all the wine from the wine glass on the table.

"It's literal, whoever has a good horse breed will rob whomever he wants!"

"The Turks in the north are actually a good target for robbery, after all, the Turki Khan is subject to the Jieli Khan, before my Tang Dynasty has a clear war with the Turks, he can only sneak around, and sell excellent horse breeds to us on a small scale. "

"Therefore, it is better to simply implement the method of robbery, and use a small Tang army to invade the grassland and rob their horses without starting a big war. "

"Even if the means are more resolute, they can also rob Tibet, although they live on the plateau, but in fact, there is no shortage of excellent war horses. "
