Kuai Yue was depressed. What do you want to say? At the same time, Kuai Yue felt deeply that he was really not suitable to serve as an envoy. He was good at military strategies.

But for political reasons, his brother Kuai Liang is good at it. If he had his brother come, he might not have to be so embarrassed along the way, and he could even convince Liu Zhe to form an alliance.

Unfortunately, it’s too late to say anything now, and Kuai Yue can only listen to what Guo Jia wants to say next.

"Brother Yidu, is there a shortage of horses in Jingzhou?" Guo Jia asked Kuai Yue.

Jingzhou is located in the south, and it has experienced much less wars than the Central Plains, and there are no major turmoils. Therefore, Jingzhou is the most prosperous state except for Liu Zhe's rule.

And taking advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains, we took in many northern refugees and had a sufficient population.

It is rich and has a sufficient population, so Jingzhou has sufficient military resources and no shortage of weapons and supplies, and its strength is also ranked among the top in the world.

However, no matter how rich Jingzhou is, there is something that cannot be obtained on a large scale, that is, war horses.

In fact, it is not only Jingzhou, but also Liu Zhe is controlled by Liu Zhe in places where horses are produced in the north, and it is difficult for other states to obtain war horses on a large scale. Therefore, war horses are extremely lacking in other princes except Liu Zhe.

Even if Liu Zhe opened up the horse trading, only Cao Cao had to get the first month when he was close to the tower. Most of the war horses he bought and sold fell into Cao Cao's hands, leaving only a little bit of them to other princes.

Jingzhou is rich, and if he can spend a lot of money, he can still buy a large number of war horses. However, Liu Biao has lost his ambitions. He only wants to protect his own three acres of land and is not very interested in fighting for dominance of the world.

Therefore, Jingzhou is extremely lacking in war horses. Apart from Liu Biao's important subordinates, not many people have their own mounts. As for the cavalry, there is not even a single one.

The south ships and the north horses are in the south, Jingzhou is in the south, and it is close to the Yangtze River, with dense rivers in the territory, so it doesn’t matter if there are not many war horses.

However, when Liu Bei defeated Cao Cao twice, Cao Cao's eyes began to move from the north to the south, and he sharpened his sword and prepared to take revenge.

The shortcomings of Jingzhou's lack of war horses were infinitely magnified.

The only ones who deal with cavalry are cavalry.

The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry under Cao Cao was the strongest cavalry besides the Black Scale Army under Liu Zhe.

Just based on Liu's subordinates who faced the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, they would definitely be beaten to cry and cry out for their parents and urinate.

As an important confidant of Liu Biao, Kuai Yue also saw this issue very clearly.

In fact, when he went on a mission to Youzhou, in addition to forming an alliance with Liu Zhe, he also hoped to receive strong assistance from Liu Zhe, such as important war materials such as war horses.

When he heard Guo Jia ask him whether Jingzhou is short of war horses, Kuai Yue felt aroused in his heart and vaguely guessed what Liu Zhe meant. So, he did not speak, but waited for Guo Jia to continue speaking.

"Although my lord and Liu Jingzhou have never been close to each other, since they are both relatives of the Han Dynasty, they should support each other. It is impossible to form an alliance. This is for the sake of the safety of the emperor. I hope Liu Jingzhou can understand it. However, if Cao Cao wants to deal with Liu Jingzhou, my lord will never sit idly by." Guo Jia said with great integrity. If someone else heard it, he might be moved.

But Kuai Yue immediately understood what Liu Zhe wanted to do.

He sneered in his heart, is this to fight against Cao Cao, and you will reap the benefits of the fisherman?

He already understood what Liu Zhe had to do.

To be honest, if I hadn't been able to control myself, Kuai Yuezhen wanted to splash the tea in his hand directly on Guo Jia's face.

It's so despicable, it's fine if you don't help me, but I actually want to get on the fire and take advantage of the troubled waters.

Kuai Yue wanted to refuse, he didn't want Liu Zhe's war horse.

"So, my lord decided to give Liu Jingzhou a batch of war horses for free." However, before Kuai Yue could speak out, Guo Jia said again.

When it sounded free, Kuai Yue hesitated again.

Originally, Kuai Yue understood Liu Zhe's plan, and he was very angry. He wanted to sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight and reap the benefits of the fisherman. Let us fight with Cao Cao, and you are just picking up the bargain.

The price of war horses is not cheap. The better the war horses, the more expensive it is. Whether they don’t agree to form an alliance or refuse to help us, they actually want to squeeze out some money from us. Do you really think we are fools?

Kuai Yue felt that since Liu Zhe refused to help, he had to rely on himself and there was no need to take advantage of Liu Zhe. The money to buy war horses was enough to allow Jingzhou to recruit more soldiers.

However, when Kuai Yue heard Guo Jia say it was free, Kuai Yue had to hesitate.

The price of war horses is not cheap. If you have to pay for it yourself, you will naturally feel distressed. But if you give it for free, you will be a fool if you don’t accept it.

Kuai Yue believed that if Liu Zhe asked for money to charge the war horses in Jingzhou, Kuai Yue refused directly. Liu Biao would definitely not blame him when he went back, but might agree that he would not let Liu Zhe take advantage.

But if the war horses given were free and Kuai Yue refused, Liu Biao would definitely spit on him when he went back, and it would be possible to scold him to death.

So, Kuai Yue wanted to refuse, but when he spoke, he changed his mouth and asked, "I wonder how many war horses are there?"

"One thousand horses." Guo Jia raised a finger and said..
