Among the skills that he had obtained previously, top-notch horse rearing was very important because warhorses were always very rare.
If one was good at raising warhorses, they could keep increasing the number of warhorses. After a few years, they could have a large number of warhorses and a powerful cavalry. At that time, they could push out the three treasures of cavalry, namely, the double-sided stirrups, the high bridge saddle, and the horseshoe!
Xiang Qian did not give Cao Cao the three treasures of the cavalry because Cao Cao only had 2000 warhorses under his command. They were far inferior to Dong Zhuo, who had come from Western Liang!
Once the three treasures of cavalry were introduced, it would instead benefit Dong Zhuo, Gongsun Zan, and the other border forces who occupied the horse breeding land. It would also benefit the nomadic tribes such as the Southern Xiongnu and Xianbei!
Therefore, Xiang Qian's goal was to wait until he had 100,000 warhorses and could conquer the world in one go. At that time, he would promote the three treasures of cavalry!
Warhorses not only depended on the spoils of war, but also on one's own careful nurturing. Therefore, if one were to pass down the top-notch horse-raising ability, it would be great to have a hundred thousand cavalry in three to five years!
……
Xiang Qian got the answer he wanted from Cai Yan and Cai Wenji's reaction and was satisfied.
He smiled and said,"I'm just joking with everyone. I was just sparring with Ma Chao, the son of Wuwei Prefecture's Ma Teng. We made a bet. Ma Chao lost to me, so he gave me 1000 warhorses. At the same time, he asked his little sister, Ma Yunlu, to be my follower!”
Cao Cao heaved a sigh of relief.
Just now, Cao Cao was worried that Ma Teng would use his daughter as bait to lure Xiang Qian to pledge loyalty. Now, it seemed that Xiang Qian was still loyal to him.
Therefore, Cao Cao laughed loudly and said," That's good. It seems that Governor Ma is also a straightforward person. He is willing to lose!"
There is no time to lose. Wen Jin, you will escort Wenji to Chenliu County. It is best if you return within five days!”
Xiang Qian led the 800 Xiang Family's Army, one person riding two horses, and rushed to Chenliu County.
Cai Wenji didn't know how to ride a horse, and she didn't have a coachman. Xiang Qian had Ma Yunlu drive the carriage and carry Cai Wenji on the road.
Ma Yunlu didn't know how to drive a carriage, so she said coquettishly,""General, aren't you forcing me?”
Xiang Qian smiled faintly and said," I thought you Ma people knew how to drive horses. Since you don't, then sit in the carriage and have a chat with Miss Cai!"”
Xiang Qian asked his subordinates who knew how to drive to drive the carriage.
Ma Yunlu and Cai Wenji sat in the carriage together.
Before they set off, Xiang Yu had used the system to communicate with Bian Yuer.
He looked at Bian Yu-er's beautiful face on the virtual screen that only he could see.
"Yu 'Er! If nothing unexpected happens, we will be able to return to Chen Liu in two days. At that time, we can meet up!”
Bian Yuer was puzzled." It's four to five hundred miles from Suanzao to Chenliu. Can we get there in two days?" A normal march would take at least 10 days!"
Xiang Qian smiled." I'm riding two horses now. I'm changing horses, so I'm moving very fast. Think about it now. Is there any way for us to meet?"”
Cao Cao only asked Xiang Qian to escort Cai Wenji back to Chenliu, not to visit his beloved wife Bian Yuer.
If Xiang Qian wanted to see Bian Yu-er, he would need Bian Yu-er to create an opportunity for herself!
Bian Yu-er thought for a moment and said," I can't think of a foolproof plan at the moment. Don't we still have two days? Let me think about it carefully!"”
To Bian Yu-er, she originally only wanted to use Xiang Qian to have a child. She had never thought of doing anything to Xiang Qian!
However, after these days of contact, especially being able to see each other from hundreds of miles away, Bian Yu-er was shocked by Xiang Qian and had an indescribable admiration for him. She looked forward to dating Xiang Qian even more!
As a result, these days, Bian Yu-er's mind only had Xiang Qian's shadow and did not think of Cao Cao at all!
However, Bian Yuer knew very well that her relationship with Xiang Qian must be kept a secret and must not be discovered.
Otherwise, with Cao Cao's character, she and Xiang Qian could only flee to the ends of the earth!
Therefore, Bian Yu-er had to think of a foolproof plan before she dared to date Xiang Qian.
However, Xiang Qian did not care about this at all. Even if Cao Cao found out, Xiang Qian could just leave Cao Cao and join another lord!
Just like in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, Li Zicheng's general, Gao Jie, had committed adultery with Li Zicheng's wife, Xing Shi. After Li Zicheng discovered it, Gao Jie brought Xing Shi to join the Ming army. In the end, they became one of the four major towns of Nanming!
Of course, if he was not discovered by Cao Cao, Xiang Qian was prepared to stay with Cao Cao!
This was because Cao Cao was the fastest to unify the world, especially with Xiang Qian's help!
After he unified the world, once Cao Cao decided to abandon the rabbit, he would not be able to blame Xiang Qian. Xiang Qian would never be Han Xin, he would only be Lu Buwei!
How could the life of King Zhuang Xiang of Qin be so short? Lu Buwei was not without suspicion!
……
In the carriage, Ma Yunlu and Cai Wenji looked at each other, feeling awkward.
Ma Yunlu was a child of the grasslands. She had been practicing martial arts with her father and brother since she was young. She had never been interested in those scholarly young ladies from aristocratic families. She and Cai Wenji were from two different worlds!
Although Cai Wenji admired Xiang Qian's unparalleled martial prowess, she still found it hard to agree with a woman in armor.
Therefore, Cai Wenji and Ma Yunlu didn't have the same aura and didn't have anything in common.
Ma Yunlu simply opened the curtain and looked at the carriage that was illuminated by the clouds.
She noticed that Xiang Qian was very strange. He kept looking up as if he was looking at something.
"General Xiang! What are you doing? It feels so strange!”
