Chapter 364 I will help you transport cattle

What to do to kill those cattle? Isn’t the Tang Dynasty short of cattle? The next day, he returned to the modern world and showed up to deal with many things and was in love with Sister Li who happened to be in the imperial capital for one night and walked out of the camp where he stayed overnight. As soon as he stretched, he saw a lot of Tang troops gathered not far away to kill cattle. Then he asked Zhang Shuo, who was on duty outside his tent.

Let me say to the military admiral. Zhang Shuo, who had not slept all night, respectfully bowed to our Tang Dynasty. It was like a young man who dreamed that he could have a cow at home. Nowadays, anyone could have a cow at home, and no one had to work hard in the field. The government said that anyone who dared to kill a cow was a serious crime, and of course it was a cow at a lack of cow.

But there are too many cattle here. Zhang Shuo looked at the herds of cattle and sheep in the distance, his eyes full of regret and could not raise so many cattle and sheep. The cows and sheep here together were at least more than 100,000. We will not grazle, and we will soon go south to return to the Tang Dynasty, and we can't raise so many animals along the way.

As Zhang Shuo spoke, tears flowed down his eyes. The cattle, sheep and horses had to eat every day, and they ate more than people. There was no such a plump grassland to support them on the way south. In order to bring as many horses as possible, they could only kill cattle, sheep.

The Tang Dynasty must have lacked large animals. Farms like cattle that can replace at least several human resources are the most precious wealth for any farmer. The Tang Dynasty government also issued a ban on killing plowing ox to protect plowing ox. This time, the attack on Jie Li captured tens of thousands of horses, tens of thousands of cows and more sheep. But these animals could not be taken back alive.

The animals eat more food every day than people eat. As a Turkic Khan, Jie Li only had about 100,000 herders and these animals around him because there was no grassland on the grassland that could feed more people and animals. Otherwise, he would have concentrated all the population and livestock of the entire Eastern Turkic people around him.

The Jie Li Jinguan station is the most fertile grassland within a radius of thousands of miles nearby, but the upper limit of its support is only so many. If the Tang army heads south to the Tang Dynasty, it will be impossible for them to encounter such a good grassland along the way, and no one will grazing them. There are countless dangers waiting for them as Turks peek around.

Killing beefs and getting meat is helpless. Since you can't take it away, you can't leave it to the Turks, so you have to kill the marinated meat and make it jerky. This can be considered a way to make up for Yu Wu.

Yan Fei looked at the Tang army soldiers who were killing cattle in the distance in silence, and quickly thought about how to deal with this matter.

He wanted to increase the strength of the Tang Dynasty and make the Tang Dynasty powerful as soon as possible. The role of these cattle is naturally self-evident. Although these cattle are just beef cattle on the grassland, it can be considered as the ability of the Chinese farming nation. As long as it can be transported back to the Central Plains, it will not take long to become useful oxen. It can greatly improve grain output and liberate a large amount of human resources.

Yan Fei can transport a large amount of food to the Tang Dynasty, but he cannot transport active seeds. He can deliver meat to the Tang Dynasty, but he cannot transport alive cattle, sheep and livestock.s1;

As for mechanized agricultural tools, he had used them in Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty and space. They were indeed easy to use, but subsequent maintenance would be fatal. Because no one understood these things at all. The agricultural machinery that spent a lot of time and energy transported there had to give up after the failure because it could not repair and lacked spare parts. This was indeed a failed attempt in Yan Fei's opinion.

Moreover, agricultural equipment from the Ming Dynasty was only used in Liaodong, and the demand was not too high. But if it was in the Tang Dynasty, the demand was too high, and various logistical support such as providing oil would increase geometrically. Yan Fei did not want to transform himself into a hard-working transport aircraft, doing nothing but transporting supplies all day long. That was not the life he wanted to live.

After a while, Yan Fei walked towards the bullpen. He wanted to stop the Tang army from killing the cattle and transport these cattle to the Tang Dynasty alive. As long as these cattle could be transported to the Tang Dynasty, the strength of the Tang Dynasty would be greatly improved in a very short time. With his own support, the Tang army's cavalry could quickly rampant the world.

When Yan Fei came to the slaughter site, he saw tears rolling down his eyes in the huge eyes of the bull who was waiting for slaughter in the cow pen, which surprised him greatly.

Yan Fei often eats all kinds of delicious beef, but he rarely sees cows. This situation is unheard of at this time. He did not expect that other creatures except humans also have such feelings.

A Tang soldier holding a sharp knife and then cleaned the sharp knife in his hand and walked towards the next cow. He was also worried when he looked at the huge eyes of the bull.

He is a soldier in the palace and is naturally a farmer. For farmers, cattle are the most rare animals. It is also sad to kill cattle at this time. But this is a military order, and he has no choice but to obey the military order.

However, just as he was holding a sharp knife in his hand, he was about to kill the cow, a big hand reached over and grabbed his wrist directly.

When Li Jing, who was handling military affairs, received the news that Yan Fei was preventing the soldiers from killing cattle, anger suddenly arose in his heart. He gave the order to kill cattle because he knew very well that he could not take so many animals. However, Yan Fei's actions directly disobeyed his orders.

In name, Yan Fei was just a small recorder and joined the army. He dared to disobey the general's order and directly dealt with military law. But Li Jing had no choice but to do anything about him except being angry. In addition to being angry, he could only forcefully suppress the anger in his heart, get up and leave the military tent to see what Yan Fei wanted to do.

By the time Li Jing came to the bullpen, it was already surrounded by generals and soldiers. Everyone was listening to Yan Fei's shouting on the sturdy bull riding north.

Li Jing slowed down and understood after listening to a few words. Yan Fei was saying that these cattle were very important. Once brought back to the Tang Dynasty, it could bring a huge improvement to the national strength of the entire country. Killing meat so easily is nothing more than killing chickens and getting eggs.s1;

We all know this. After Li Jing understood Yan Fei’s meaning, he strode forward, but we couldn’t take so many cattle, sheep and horses back!

There are so many animals, and it is an unbearable number for people to eat horses every day. If they force themselves to go on the road, they will probably starve to death halfway through. Li Jing strode to Yan Fei and looked at him. I also know that these cattle are very important, but the food and grass we carry can at most support the horses to take back, so we can't take care of anything else. If we don't kill them, we can only leave it to the Turks!

Before the army moved, food and grass came first. Since the war records, China has always done enough logistics to fight. And with the transportation capabilities of this era, Li Jing was able to support the transport of tens of thousands of horses back, and the cattle and sheep were really uneasy.

Li Jing just said to Yan Fei that you don’t know anything and it’s just here to disrupt the morale of the army. Who can’t say good-sounding big words? The difference is whether you have the ability to do it.

I was not joking. Yan Fei's expression became serious and I could provide food for these animals. But the things could not be given for nothing. What could the general give me?

I know what the general said. Yan Fei, who was riding on the cow's back, raised his hand and patted the cow's butt. After getting off the cow's back, he spoke casually. What if I could provide enough forage?

This is Yan Fei's real purpose. The value of so many cattle, sheep and horses being transported to the Tang Dynasty is absolutely uncountable. If Yan Fei wants to leave halfway, he will immediately become the richest person in the entire Tang Dynasty, and even more rich than the government of the Tang Dynasty who was short of money at this time. Of course, the premise is that he can keep so much wealth.

Li Jing silently calculated the gains and losses in his mind. In his opinion, if Yan Fei was talking big, there was no need to say anything. But if Yan Fei could really do it, even half of it would be much better than taking meat after killing all the cattle and sheep. As for how to buy these animals after being transported to the Tang Dynasty, it would be better to hand it over to the civil servants in the court for a headache.

This is a very formal document. Once you repent, not only will Li Jing lose his reputation, but the government will also lose its reputation as a result. Because Li Jing did not sign the document in his private name, but in the name of the government.

Then I also have a condition. Yan Fei's smile on his face is as bright as stealing a chicken while playing cards. At most, he can only wait for the government for a month. If the government doesn't buy it for a month, he can let me deal with it. Otherwise, if you don't buy it for a few years, I will have to help you maintain it for a few years?

The general originally wanted to kill all these cattle and sheep, which means that their value could only be calculated based on the price of meat. Yan Fei started bargaining. If this is the case, I would suffer a little loss. How about converting the money for the forage into meat?

Hum? Li Jing was stunned at first, then laughed and said nonsense.

Dreaming! Li Jing refused without hesitation. Can the price of live beef be compared with the price of beef? It is completely in the sky and underground. If you really follow Yan Fei's proposal, it would be equivalent to Tang Jun helping Yan Fei armed with a large number of animals to sell for free. Even if Li Jing doesn't know how to do business, he knows that this will cause the Tang Dynasty to lose to death.

Don't worry, it will be here tomorrow. The general won't be able to wait for a day. Yan Fei looked at Jie Li's golden tent in the distance and gave me the golden tent.

This is not to feed a few animals, but tens of thousands of horses, tens of thousands of cattle and tens of thousands of sheep. Even if the sheep can be killed without taking them back, the fodder that so many cattle and horses need to eat every day is astronomical. Although there are grass everywhere on this grassland, not everyone can feed cattle and sheep everywhere. Yan Fei said that he would provide food for so many animals, which was simply a joke.s1;

Then let's do it. Yan Fei smiled and put forward another suggestion. As long as these cattle, sheep and horses can be transported back to the Tang Dynasty alive, half of them must be mine. How about it?

After the two sides reached the conditions, Li Jing signed a document with Yan Fei in the name of the general and used his own official seal.

Now take out the forage. After signing the document, Li Jing couldn't wait to wonder where Yan Fei's forage was.

I have a condition. After pondering for a while, Li Jing made his own request and after transporting it to the Tang Dynasty, all the horses were only allowed to be sold to the government, and the price was not allowed to exceed the market price.
