Xiliang has nine golden tribes. In addition to the Golden Maha royal family, the other eight golden tribes each occupy one side, and the Golden Nashi tribe is in charge of the Gulaqin grassland.

The Xiliang Grassland is divided into three areas: the Gulaqin Grassland controlled by the Nashi tribe in the west, the Mangha Grassland controlled by the Qingtan tribe in the south, and the Qingluo Grassland controlled by the Maha royal family. In comparison, the Qingluo Grassland is the most vast and is also the birthplace of the Mahazang in the West Liang Dynasty. The area of ​​the Gulaqin Grassland and the Mangha Grassland is only comparable to the Qingluo Grassland.

Although the cavalry of the West Liang was famous all over the world, the West Liang did not produce horses everywhere. Only these three grasslands could produce purebred West Liang horses.

The selection of Xiliang war horses is very strict, and not all horses can meet the standards. For all countries, cavalry is certainly the most terrifying combat power, but it is not easy to form a powerful cavalry legion.

The Western Liang attacked Qin and was known as a 100,000 cavalry, but only half of the real cavalry were only lost. During the process of crossing the desert, many war horses were lost. It was a cavalry corps formed by Xiliang for many years of manpower, material resources and financial resources. It can be seen that although Xiliang produces a lot of horses, the number of war horses produced will never be as numerous as people imagine.

Although the three major grasslands, Qingluo Prairie is located in the middle and has a vast territory, it is not as good as the Gulaqin Prairie compared to the number of elite war horses produced.

Therefore, although the number of cattle and sheep paid in Gulaqin Prairie is not large every year, it has to supply a large number of war horses to Qingluo City, which has become a major burden on Gulaqin Prairie.

For the great officials of the Nashi tribe, in addition to assisting the clan leader in handling the government affairs of the Gulaqin Grassland, one of their most important tasks is to supervise the Gulaqin Grassland to hand over the war horses in full every year. Therefore, in the Nashi tribe, the great officials have set up a special horse monitoring camp, which are all masters of horse appraisal. These people often lead people around the Gulaqin Grassland. As long as they see outstanding horses on the grassland, they can pay for them to acquire them or even forcefully recruit them.

The reason for the early establishment of the Horse Camp was actually that Qingluo City was unwilling to see the war horses growing on the Gulaqin Grassland, and collected excellent horses back to the Qingluo Grassland, thereby reducing the strength of the war horses on the Gulaqin Grassland. After all, if Gulaqin produces strong war horses, it would have more or less threats to the Qingluo Royal City.

However, the horse officials in the horse camp quickly discovered the way to make money.

Horses on the grassland are divided into official horses and private horses. Official horses are the grasslands that each tribe will specially draw, and the ones stored are official horses used for surrender.

The origin of the official horses was naturally from the private horses of herdsmen. Once the private horses of herdsmen gave birth to horse cubs, special personnel in the tribe would go to check. If it was determined that the horse calf was inherently suitable for the domestication of war horses, the tribe would take out rich property to buy them and then send them to the official horse grassland for domestication.

When the official horses grow, they will have to be screened again. Only two or three out of ten horses can be offered for war horses. The selected horses will be sold on the market for horses regularly opened by the tribe, and will be given priority to the herders of the tribe. The remaining ones will be sold to other tribes that lack horses, especially mountain tribes. There is a serious lack of horses and the need for horses is very strong.

In addition to official horses, many grassland herders also have their own personal property, such as cattle and sheep, and horses. Although they have been passed down from their fathers, some have been rewarded for their official duties.

The horse officials in the horse camp patrol the good horses on the Gulaqin prairie and found the secret to getting rich, which was to be a good horse and blackmail the herdsmen on the grassland.

In addition to regularly inspecting official horses, they are most interested in wandering on the grasslands and looking for ordinary herders. Once they catch them, as long as they are horses that can still be seen, they will rush forward and claim to be identified as excellent horses, suitable for war horses, and make a move. According to the rules, they must buy horses at extremely low prices.

Such a price is often less than 20% of the value of the horse. For herders, horses are indispensable to herding, and horses are the most precious property of a person, so there will naturally be disputes. However, if the horse officials argue, they will be even more unreasonable and forcefully recruit horses. Often, at this time, the herders are at a disadvantage and cannot compete.

After forcing the herdsmen to a helpless place, the horse officials acted like a good person, and said that if they really couldn't bear to leave the horse, they would have to take out some property so that the horse could be left without forcing it.

The herdsmen had no choice but to take out their property to protect the horses, while the horse officials made a fortune with this.

The herdsmen were naturally dissatisfied with this, and the patriarchs of various tribes also hated the blood-eating horse officials of the man. They once came to the patriarch of the Golden Tribe to solve the matter. The patriarch of the Golden Tribe had negotiated with the Grand Priests many times on this matter. The Grand Priests often suppressed the patriarchs in the name of the court, but they knew that it would be bad to do too much, so they also restrained the horse camp. Although the horse officials were quite restrained, this kind of thing never stopped on the grassland.

The large-scale officials in the Gulaqin Prairie were in charge of the horse camp. The horse camp wandered around, one for blackmailing money and the other for finding good horses. However, they were not all good horses that were only found for official horses but were sent to Qingluo Royal City. The real good horses among them were often detained by the large-scale officials and became their own private property.

The biggest preference of men on the grassland is horses. The great officials in the Gulaqin prairie have two major hobbies, one is women and the other is horses.

The Grand Official set up a horse farm less than twenty miles away from the Historical Headquarters. The water and grass are plump and rainy. There is a river that is most suitable for raising horses. The Grand Official's golden tent is set up in this area. Although it is claimed that it is used to keep good horses here to offer to the Maha royal family, this horse farm is actually the private horse farm of the Grand Official. It houses more than 200 good horses, all of which are private horses of the Grand Official. Although there are gifts used to give to people, it has even won the private horses that the Grand Official regards as their lives.

As the Gulaqin Grassland Grand Prix, he was the largest administrative officer in the Gulaqin Grassland Grand Prix, and his power was only higher than that of the Golden Tribe leader. The Golden Tent Camp where he was stationed was within fifteen miles of the surrounding area, except for the Golden Tribe leader, no one could enter without reporting.

The Golden Tribe all had large-scale officials. Each large-scale official would be equipped with 800 light cavalrymen in Qingluo Royal City. These 800 light cavalrymen were only assigned to the large-scale officials, and the Golden Clan leader had no right to mobilize them.

These light cavalry are all children of the Maha tribe, and the great officials of each tribe were definitely from the Maha royal family. The great officials of the Gulaqin Prairie are the younger brother of the current King of Xiliang, named Mahadaqing. They are nearly fifty years old. This person is very scheming and firmly grasped the regime of the Gulaqin Prairie and has always supervised the Golden Historian tribe Zhang firmly under his nose.

Mahadaqing attaches great importance to his safety. Although Qingluo Royal City equipped him with 800 light cavalry, he still felt that it was not safe enough. He once acted as a guard when choosing the Gulaqin grassland. Now he has a guard of nearly 2,000 people by his side. The equipment of this guard is very good. He guards are guarding around the Golden Top Tent, and rangers are dispatched on the outer side. Rangers will wander and patrol within dozens of miles around the Golden Top Tent every day to ensure the absolute safety of the Golden Top Tent.

Under the protection of layers, Mahadaqing lived very comfortably in this pasture and rested at ease. He loved women and horses. Because Xiliang Kingdom learned Han culture very early, many people also practiced calligraphy and painting according to art. In Xiliang Kingdom, only nobles were qualified to read Han books. Mahadaqing was born in a royal family and had a noble status, so he naturally could not avoid art. When he was young, he found a painter to learn painting and studied for some years. Although he could not say that he had great painting skills, among the Maha royal family, he was also one of the few nobles who were proficient in painting.

What Mahadaqing likes to do most is not only to take his dozens of women to ride horses and ride on horseback, but another thing is to like to gather his women to his golden tent and paint in front of these women. Every time he summons these women to come, what he paints will always be a horse.

The horses he drew were also one of the many good horses he raised.

For Mahadaqing, most of the horses in this horse farm are his life. Whenever he gets a horse, he will take his woman to watch it and then solemnly give it a loud name. His women must remember the body shape and its name, because after Mahadaqing draws a horse, whoever can be the first to say the name of the horse he is drawn will receive a considerable reward.

Because of this, the most willing thing the women around him is to observe the body shape and characteristics of the horses on the horse farm from time to time, and then remember the name of each horse in his heart, so that he could receive a reward when Mahada celebrates his painting.

At dusk, Mahadaqing was painting in the golden tent. More than a dozen women were surrounded by their bodies and had different appearances. Among these women, in addition to the people of Xiliang, there were women from the Western Regions even more in the western regions. Some were tall and big, some were petite, some were enchanting, some were thin and slim, and some were plump and strong. These women were staring at the scroll and watching Mahadaqing paint.

"It's Wanlifei!" Only half of it was drawn, a plump woman could not wait to scream. Mahadaqing laughed and reached out to slap the woman's fat big butt, saying, "I'm wrong. This slap is a punishment for you. If anyone says it wrong, he will take off all his clothes and walk around the tent."

At this moment, a voice came from outside the tent: "Reported, Feiying sent a message, a team of cavalry appeared in the south, with five or six hundred people coming here!"

Mahadaqing paused her brush, frowned, and asked loudly, "Who is it?"

"No news yet." The voice outside said: "It's just that the speed of the trip is very fast, and you'll soon enter the restricted area!"

Mahadaqing put the brush in his arms, carried his hands, and walked out of the tent. Outside the door, he reported to his confidant, Duoji, the leader of the thousand men. He had two thousand men under his command, and he had two thousand men. He was his confidant, and he sneered: "Five or six hundred people? Who is the one who wants to die? Duoji, bring people to meet him, see what's going on, find out the reason, come and report me quickly!"

Duoji gathered a team of light cavalry and led the team to the south. After traveling less than twenty miles, he heard the rumbling sound of horse hooves in front of him. He saw a group of cavalry coming from a dark place not far away, and was coming quickly here.

With Doji waved his hand, the three hundred light cavalrymen following him were quickly distributed, showing a fan-shaped formation, bent his bow and arrow, pulled the bow and full moon, aiming at the front, waiting for the battle.

The other party's momentum was not diminished, and a person beside Duoji had already said, "The leader of the thousand men, it seems that the people from Zhuoyan tribe came. They shot the moon flag!"

Although the tribes on the grassland are all affiliated with the Daxiliang Empire, each tribe has its own tribal flags. The Zhuoyan tribe is in the area of ​​Yueliang Lake, and their tribal flags are the moon flags.

Duoji looked cold and fierce, "It's true that he is from Zhuoyan's tribe. Who allowed them to gather troops?" He pulled out the scimitar at his waist, held the hilt tightly, and sneered: "Is Zhuoyan's tribe going to rebel?"
