Lord of the people online game

"Give me a batch of Don war horses used by the Cossack cavalry."

Chu Tian had a meal in the lobby of the main city in the south, opposite the long table was Caterina. He asked Caterina for a batch of high-quality war horses without hesitation.

It is very costly to raise ordinary war horses in Xuzhou and Yanzhou. The land for raising an ordinary war horse can support more than a dozen people for farming. As for high-quality war horses, they require excellent feed and are even more costly.

So Chu Tian had the idea of ​​Katerina.

When Ekaterina mentioned that she had a territory in the Don River, the cost of raising war horses was much lower. The Don hippo is an excellent war horse used by the Cossack cavalry. If you can pit a group of war horses from Ekaterina to return to the Eastern Han Dynasty, you can save 100,000 taels of silver, which is also considered 100,000 taels of gold. For Ekaterina, the cost of cultivating thousands of war horses in the River River is less than 100,000 taels of silver.

Yekaterina squinted her eyes: "What do you want the hippo to do?"

"Improve the horse breeds in the Central Plains of the Eastern Han Dynasty."

"The war horses in the army are all slaughter horses, and you can't cultivate descendants even if you bring them back to the Eastern Han Dynasty. When I return to the main world, I can give you hundreds of unslaughtered stallions. However, it is difficult for you to improve your horse breeds."

Catherine looked at the man sitting opposite him, not very optimistic about his plan to improve his horse breed.

Chu Tian knew that she had a large number of cavalry and was an eagle on the prairie, so she should have a lot of insight into raising horses: "How do you say it?"

"First of all, with the natural conditions in your place, the best war horses are not well taken care of. A large number of hippos will die every year, and the breed will decrease. If you take care of carefully and maintain the breed, the horse's government expenditure will be huge. The cost of cultivating a high-quality war horse from a young age may be several times higher than the cost of buying a high-quality war horse directly, because the purchased war horses can be put into use immediately."

"Secondly, if the base number of introduced good horses is too small, and the annual good horses will die because they are not adapted to the local conditions and the base number to be improved is very large. During the back-crossing process, the breeding results are likely to disappear."

"In addition, it takes ten years to improve the war horses to achieve some results, and thirty years to achieve significant results. This is to improve the breed under modern conditions. Unless you think that the second generation of horses can achieve the results you want, the probability of such a small one is very small."

"In the end, it's the problem of water and soil. Improved horse breeds may fail. Two or three generations may not have the ideal breeds. Some ancient civilizations even spent hundreds of years to improve horse breeds."

Yekaterina's words made Chu Tian need to consider more detailedly.

Raising horses in farming areas is a good idea, but they only take care of war horses since childhood. The mortality rate, breed degradation, and the opportunity cost of occupying arable land is much higher than that in nomadic areas. The possibility of high-quality war horses deterioration is higher.

The main reason is that the war horses were improved for too long. In modern times, it took ten years to improve war horses to achieve initial results, and there were significant results in thirty years.

After thirty years, Chu Tian thought that he was in his fifties...

After thirty years, Chu Tian thought he was enough to seize a land of production.

"Give up the war horses in your place. You can consider using Mongolian horses, Dayuan horses, and Don hippos to improve the Ili horses. The cultivation of Ili horses is mainly based on Don hippos. Or, using Mongolian horses, Baikal horses, and Arab war horses to improve the three hippos. However, you must have excellent pastures, such as alpine meadows, mountain meadows, and mountain meadow grasslands... Otherwise, it will be extremely difficult to improve horse breeds, or it may be extremely expensive, and may not achieve the goal unless you have the resources and conditions of industrial civilization."

Katerina talked eroticly.

Chu Tian's eyes lit up, and Katerina was a talent.

No wonder she could become the largest lord of the Grand Duchy of Moscow.

Seeing Chu Tian staring at her, although her body was a little hot, Caterina still asked uneasily: "What's wrong? What I'm wrong?"

"No, you're right. Having a good ranch can really reduce the burden. However, you can try to improve horse breeds from now on to prepare for the next generation. If you don't have to use this generation, you can also use it in the future."

Chu Tian looked at Ye Katerina with a hot look: "I really want to catch you back to the Eastern Han Dynasty to raise horses."

Yekaterina was a little angry. It’s okay to raise a child, but how could she get a horse?

Chu Tian already knew it.

It takes a lot of time and energy to improve the horse breed, and it cannot relieve intimidation.

In the Chutian generation, snatching horse-producing land and sweeping the world faster than improving horse breeds.

Improved horse breeds takes time and can be carried out simultaneously.

Perhaps only ten, twenty, or even thirty, or fifty years will the local horse breeds undergo earth-shaking changes.

"Can you let me go now?"

Of course, Chu Tian could not catch Yekaterina in the territory of the territory and raise horses in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Whether Yekaterina is willing to let him go is a question.

"Who wants to keep you here, Sophia, take him away."

"Then I'll leave."

"Wait..." Ekaterina regretted again and thought in a hurry, "How should I give you the stallion of the Don Hippo? Our territory should establish a teleportation array."

With the teleportation array, there will be a way to trick Chu Tian into St. Petersburg in the future...

"Can a teleportation 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 earth separated from Yekaterina's St. Petersburg. Yes, it is exactly half a earth.

"St. Petersburg is the 'world trade node' of the Grand Duchy of Moscow. You should know that the world trade nodes can be transported at a high price. If the world trade node of your Han Empire, the Western Region Protectorate, is willing to sign a treaty with St. Petersburg to open the teleportation array, I can send people to take the horse from St. Petersburg to the Western Region Protectorate, and then use the Western Region Protectorate to other cities in the Eastern Han Dynasty."

Ekaterina explained.

In fact, it is also very simple. It is to teleport from St. Petersburg to the Western Regions Protectorate, and then from the Western Regions Protectorate to Xiacheng.

The world trade node is very important, ensuring the circulation of specialties and population, and it is also a way to carry out expeditions.

The Western Regions Protectorate and Nanhai County were two world trade nodes in the Eastern Han Dynasty, representing the land Silk Road and the Maritime Silk Road, respectively. They were occupied by the Western Regions Protector Huo'an and the Jiaozhou Governor Wang Defa.

Huo'an's relationship with Chu Tian is OK, and it should be no problem to sign the St. Petersburg-Western Region Protectorate Treaty.

In theory, there is a possibility of using teleportation array to attack other civilizations, but Chu Tian doesn't have to worry too much.

The teleportation array can only teleport at most a few hundred people at a time, and the cost is extremely high. Unless a lord is rich enough, he will directly send troops from St. Petersburg to attack the Western Region Protectorate. Teleporting hundreds of people at a time is just a death sentence.

Furthermore, the teleportation arrays are mutual, and the Western Regions Protectorate can also send troops to St. Petersburg.

St. Petersburg is a bridgehead for attacking Northern and Eastern Europe.

If you have money in the future, Chu Tian would not mind taking a 100,000 army to St. Petersburg for sightseeing.

"There is no problem in opening the teleportation array, but you give me 20,000 Pitton war horses and 30,000 other war horses. 50,000 war horses should not be a big problem for you who own a ranch. I will be of great use to return to the main world. As a consideration, I will give you a sum of gold and silver."

Chu Tian obtained a lot of spoils in the national war, and plundered a large number of gold and silver jewelry from the dead enemy troops, as well as the throne of Emperor Suleiman. Chu Tian exchanged them all with Katerina.

Yekaterina has a vast grassland, with more horses than Xu Fengnian's Longxi war horses. In addition, her personal relationship...

In exchange of interests on the national war battlefield, there is no need to consider the cost of the teleportation array. Chu Tian bought a war horse from Xu Fengnian and could buy three war horses from Katerina!

Of course, this is with Yekaterina's consent.

When it comes to business, Caterina is serious and refuses to retreat.

"Don't forget that you are still my servant now, and you should obey your master's request. Otherwise..."

In order to buy 50,000 excellent war horses from Ekaterina at a market price of one-third, Chu Tian had to take out the hemp rope that Ekaterina gave him.

Although Caterina is a pervert, Chu Tian could only sacrifice himself for the sake of 50,000 war horses...

"No, these are fifty thousand war horses...I...I will never agree..."

Yekaterina has a firm will.

About two hours later, the defeated Caterina finally decided to sell 50,000 war horses to Chu Tian.

Fifty thousand war horses were indeed nothing to her. In this national war, there were more than fifty thousand war horses captured alone. Ekaterina used troops to conquer the Cossack tribe in the Don River Basin, and she could not count the number of war horses she had.

Chu Tian got Ekaterina and obtained 50,000 war horses. Ekaterina promised that after the teleportation array was opened, the excellent breeders from the Don hippos were sent to Xiacheng, and then he left Ekaterina's room with satisfaction.

Chu Tian’s generals were anxiously waiting for their lord’s return. Their lord suddenly disappeared last night, and even Dian Wei was unaware of it.

Joan of Arc and Li Xiuning asked Sophia for someone, but Sophia asked for a question and didn't know it, and both sides almost ignited.

When Chu Tian came out, he resolved the tension between the two sides.

Li Xiuning seemed to have seen something. After all, she is as smart as Xia Tianliang.

This matter is not complicated or simple.

Chu Tian found Huo'an and discussed opening up the Silk Road with Europe. Huo'an's Western Region Protectorate was originally a transit station in the East and the West. He was very happy to open a teleportation array with St. Petersburg: "As long as the monitoring of the teleportation array is strengthened and the teleportation array is closed in time, European legions will not be able to reach the Western Region Protectorate."

"Then I'll ask you for this."

Chu Tian just needs to wait for Caterina to deliver the Don Hippo stallion as agreed.

Chu Tian also purchased a batch of Dayuan horse stallions from Huo'an and carried out small-scale horse breed improvement plans, using Dun Hippo and Dayuan horse to improve war horses in the Central Plains.

However, raising good horses in the Central Plains is expensive and time-consuming. The military horses I usually buy are incitement horses and cannot reproduce offspring.

Before seizing the horse-producing land, the source of excellent war horses is basically based on buying.

Catherine's 50,000 war horses were enough for Chu Tian to spend some time. What's more, Chu Tian also captured many war horses alive in the national war, including Mongolian horses and Arab horses...but most war horses were horses and lost their ability to reproduce.

"With St. Petersburg in the future, can we send our troops to Eastern Europe?"

Huo'an thought.

"It depends on whether Yekaterina agrees. She should not want our army to step onto her territory."

Chu Tian drew a clear line between individuals and territory, and most of the same was true for Ye Katerina.

She would allow the Han army to appear in Eastern Europe unless she had a common interest.

Huo An thought, it was indeed the case: "And from the Western Regions Protectorate to St. Petersburg, the price is not small. It is estimated that a soldier will need two or thirty taels. A hundred thousand troops will be two million taels, or even three million taels of silver."

Thinking of this astronomical figure, Chu Tian and Huo An shook their heads.

Unless a special expedition is organized, you are willing to use such a great price.

"The national war is about to end, and Temujin has no chance to overtake in a short period of time. Just in case, Cao Cao, Wei Qing and Le Yi swept away the nearby enemies."

In order to suppress Temujin during the last period of the national war, Chu Tian sent commanders such as Wei Qing, Cao Cao, and Le Yi to sweep the nearby civilizations and continue to score points.

Cao Cao fought in the southern main city and served as Chu Tian's substitute. It was Cao Cao's letter of fame and his first time running-in with Wei Qing, Le Yi, Zhou Yafu and other legion commanders.

Wei Qing and Zhou Yafu may not be as omnipotent as Cao Cao, but his ability to command troops is almost the same as that of Cao Cao, and he is in the ranks of commanders of the army.

Cao Cao's loyalty has also increased. Coupled with Chu Tian's "Hanwu" characteristics, Cao Cao's loyalty has increased even more.

Next, just wait until the national war is over.

During this period, Catherine selected 50,000 war horses and handed them to Chu Tian. Anyway, after returning to the Grand Principal of Moscow, she could soon replenish war horses.

"These war horses have lost a lot of weight after the national war and need good care."

Catherine was obviously very familiar with the war horses.

Chu Tian took over 50,000 war horses, and at the same time paid a batch of gold and silver to hand over the throne of Emperor Suleiman to Ekaterina.

Catherine Equal to the throne of Suleiman the Great, and her reputation in Europe will increase greatly 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, and it is definitely not a loss.

Caterina, Joan of Arc and Li Xiuning looked at each other, feeling faintly hostile.

The national war is about to end. Temujin, who is besieging the city of the Mughal Empire, finds that he has no chance to catch up with Chu Tian because Chu Tian’s points are still increasing.

The lack of large-scale siege equipment such as Xiangyang cannons, the Mongolian cavalry's ability to siege cities was not strong, and they could only rely on the minions to attack the city.

Crassu, one of the three giants in Rome, was brought to Meet Temujin by Mongolian cavalry.

Crassus was sweating profusely in front of the Eastern Demon King.

"The national war will end soon, and you will be taken to Mobei to serve me and survive. The premise is that you have a talent..."

Temujin used a dagger to pass through Crassu's throat. Crassu felt the coldness of the dagger and swallowed: "Money, I am willing to redeem my freedom with ten thousand taels of gold!"

Temujin said coldly: "No, you want to get me one million taels of gold."
