Chapter 1160 Dawan Godly Horse

There are also horses over 100 feet tall in the Donghu of the Xiongnu, but they are very rare. They are basically royal cars. But I have never heard of a horse that can bite off a thick hemp rope in one bite. Such a strong temperament is probably not something that ordinary people can tame.

Just like men in later generations like luxury cars and watches, men in Daqin also like horses and swords, but it is easy to get a thousand miles away from a thousand miles away. A truly good horse not only requires good blood, but also requires good training and training. To get a true peerless horse, it is not only possible to get money, but to raise such a horse, the property of a million may not be able to support it.

Almost everyone knows that a real horse with a thousand miles is required to buy a horse bone, and if the buyer is not a person who knows horses, the person who loves horses may not necessarily sell it.

Therefore, the sudden arrival of Dayuan people brought unusually divine horses to sell them, which would inevitably cause a sensation in Xianyang, which gathered in the top rich circle of Daqin.

(Note: There were two statements about gold in ancient times. One refers to copper coins and the other refers to gold. But it is not without differences. The matter of buying horse bones for a thousand gold is gold. Because the one who bought horses was a king. It would be impossible to spend a thousand-mile horse that was rare in the world. It is proof that when Lu Buwei was a rare thousand-mile horse, he invested all his worth in Yiren, as a great merchant in Yangdi, he invested all his worth in Yiren, half of which was used for friendship and communication, and the other half bought rare toys to go to Xianyang to lobby royal families and nobles. Therefore, if Lu Buwei's entire value is only 1,000 coins, it would be too slap in the face. In fact, there are differences in the different names of gold in historical books. For example, the gold in "rewarding a hundred gold" is gold. If "giving a thousand jin of gold" means copper. The subtle changes in the position before and after the use of the word "gold" and the difference in context can be clearly distinguished.)

Chen Xu almost understood at this time, and just saw countless people heading west on the street, and they must have gone to see the Dayuan horse.

"Let's go and have a look!" Chen Xu also became interested and stood up and walked out the door. Chen Pingqiu Chengfu An and others immediately followed with excitement.

The famous horse in Dayuan must be the sweat-blooded BMW that is legendary in later generations.

Chen Xu has only heard of it and never seen it, and there are quite a few stories about sweat-blooded BMWs in history. The most famous one is of course Emperor Wu of Han.

Legend has it that during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, a prisoner sent to the Western Regions caught a sweat-blooded horse on the plateau. After it was presented to Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Wu of Han was ecstatic and called it a Tianma. In addition, Emperor Wu of Han also improvised a song to express extreme excitement.

? "Taiyi tribute is under the sky horse, and the red sweat is covered with foam and ochre. I travel with my face and wander thousands of miles. Now I am a dragon as my friend."

After singing, Emperor Wu of Han was still unsatisfied. Such a majestic horse was not enough. So he arranged for officials to go to the Western Regions to inquire. He learned that this kind of horse was produced in Dayuan, west of the Pamir Mountains, so he sent envoys to Dayuan with a golden horse made of gold and a gold to buy a sweat-blooded BMW, but he was rejected because Dayuan was controlled by the Huns at that time. He was afraid that this purebred horse would threaten the Huns' control over the Western Regions after he was rejected. After the envoy was rejected, he was attacked by Dayuan robbers on the way back to the Central Plains. So Emperor Wu of Han ordered the general Li Guangli to lead tens of thousands of troops to attack Dayuan. However, he returned with a crushing defeat. Only a few thousand people returned to Dunhuang.
