The second place is the White Horse Yicong. The number that Bai Horse Yicong did not receive is 9,000. In other words, the overall organization of Bai Horse Yicong is only 10,000! This number is much smaller than Huo Gang imagined.

But think about it, the number of white horses led by Gongsun Zan in history has never been very large, and ten thousand people seems to be reasonable, mainly... Gongsun Zan is obsessive-compulsive disorder. Just kidding, he can act as a white horse without hair on war horses. Even among the Turkic people who specialize in raising horses, one out of 100 horses is the proportion.

Even if there are white horses, they are raised specifically, and this proportion will be doubled at most. This means that at least 500,000 war horses can be enough to raise 10,000 white horses without hair. Not to mention that some of these white horses are born not suitable for acting as war horses.

A war horse cannot be used as a horse by just pulling out a horse. Whether it is physical fitness or physique, it needs to be carefully selected by a good horse trainer. Pack horses and war horses are both horses, but the difference between the two is too big. Not to mention anything else, just by going to the battlefield, you will not be easily frightened, so many horses are not suitable for acting as war horses.

Horses also have personality, just like humans.

The White Horse Yicong is the Western Liang Iron Cavalry. The Western Liang Iron Cavalry can be said to be a solid heavy cavalry. Huo Gang originally thought that the number of such heavy cavalry was the smallest, but in fact, Huo Gang, the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, could still receive 19,000 cavalry.

In other words, a total of 20,000 heavy cavalry! What is this? In this era, Huo Gang can say without exaggeration that he could not get so many heavy cavalry through any country in the world.

Of course, Huo Gang can make it up, because the most important thing for heavy cavalry is the fine steel armor, and Huo Gang is now too fast to suppress armor. It is no exaggeration to say that Huo Gang can suppress hundreds of sets of armor needed by cavalry within a day.

The rest is nothing more than sewing these nail pieces with cowhide, which makes the job very simple.

The largest number is the last Hu Ben Army. Hu Ben Army Huo Gang can still receive 27,000 people, which means the entire Hu Ben Army has 30,000 people!

This means that if Huo Gang summons all the soldiers, the number of regular troops under his command will reach 63,000! And all of them are elite troops!

To be honest, if you can't find such a large number of elite troops through the entire Tang Dynasty.

However, it has to be said that although the military force reward will be gone in the future, for the current Han Dynasty, so many elite troops are enough. Moreover, Huo Gang can also develop the Han Dynasty's economy with peace of mind.

Of course, Huo Gang would not collect these troops directly. If they were collected, they would need to give them food. The manpower and horses consumed were not ordinary numbers, and Huo Gang had to consider sending them a wife.

We can't let these bachelors be a lifetime bachelor.

However, the troops cannot be supplemented in the future, so Huo Gang has to consider replenishing the reserve troops. At least the training structure of these troops must be prepared, because the training of ancient troops was not as convenient as modern times, especially equestrianism, battle formations, sword techniques, etc., all require a long training.

Moreover, the army in the cold weapon era paid more attention to the cooperation between comrades, so the training of an army cannot be completed in a short period of time.

Of course, if you don’t have a choice, you can become a soldier by just sending a horse or a knife. The problem is that unless such a soldier is lucky enough to survive several wars after going to the battlefield, he will never become a veteran.

Strict training is effective in any era, because after rigorous training, they will naturally have greater chances of surviving on the battlefield. After experiencing one or two wars, they can quickly integrate what they usually learn to train and grow into a qualified veteran.

Apart from the military rewards, the remaining quota for the river covered by spiritual spring water, Huo Gang has not been used for the time being. Now there are several rivers within Huo Gang's territory near Yiwu City, but the basin area of ​​these rivers is not large, and there is too little arable land that can be affected.

If possible, Huo Gang wanted to give this quota to the Tarim River. The Tarim River is the largest inland river in the southern Xinjiang region in later generations. It has a total distance of about 2,000 kilometers and has an area of ​​more than 1.2 million square kilometers. Huo Gang didn't know how long it would take if he gave this quota to the Tarim River.

But if all of them take effect, wouldn’t it be a big profit?

Although the main river of the Tarim River is located along the northern section of the Taklamakan Desert, and there is a section of river in the middle that even crosses directly from the middle of the Taklamakan Desert to the underground of the Kunlun Mountains on the south side, this river is probably going to be wasted by then.

No matter how abnormal Lingquan water is, it will be difficult for plants to grow due to the ultra-high evaporation in the desert area. Of course, it is not absolutely impossible. At least there must be plants on both sides of the river to grow, but it will be difficult for these plants to expand the area in the desert.

But even so, the basin flowing through the Tarim River is too large, and the area of ​​arable land that can be affected can be said to be enough for the future development of the entire Han Dynasty.

But there is a problem with the Tarim River. Now there is only a small section of the Tarim River, and it is a dry river channel, because the river channel at the end of the Tarim River once flowed into the Peacock Sea, which is now the Huo Cihai Sea.

The river channel at the end of the Tarim River has dried up now, which is why the area of ​​the Peacock Sea was gradually decreasing.

To the west of Loulan Kingdom is another country that flourishes because of the Tarim River, Yanqi Kingdom.

If you want to give the Tarim River spiritual spring water, you must at least take over the Yanqi Kingdom, including Gaochang. I just don’t know if the troops are not replenished. If Gaochang is taken, will there be a river quota that will increase the effectiveness of the spiritual spring water?

If anything, it would be much simpler.

...

While Huo Gang was thinking about these issues, the negotiation room in Dunhuang County was now in the negotiation room, and the negotiations between the two sides were coming to an end. "Mr. Wu, Mr. An, Mr. Mingyue, we will talk about the last thing today." Du Ruhui said with a smile.

"That's right. You see, we have already negotiated a lot of agreements between the Tang Dynasty and the Han Dynasty. This means that we will be a country of the Brotherhood in the future. Am I wrong?" Du Ruhui asked with a smile.

"Mr. Du said very well, we naturally have no objection to this." Wu Ping immediately nodded and said with a smile.

"Mr. Wu, please ask me a bold question. Leader Huo of your side should not have married yet, right?" Du Ruhui asked with a smile.

Wu Ping and the other three were stunned for a moment, but Wu Ping nodded quickly: "Although our leader Huo is over 17 years old, he has worked hard to govern the people and is determined to consider the people. Although he has a personal maid, he has indeed not married."

The wife of this era has a very high status as a normal wife, and the maids and concubines are not formal women at all, and they have almost no status. The concubines have a little bit of status, while the maids are almost no different from girls who are in the same house.

"In that case, in order to bring our relationship closer, our Majesty will marry Chief Huo. The eldest princess of Emperor Tang and Empress Changsun are seven years old this year. It should be a heavenly marriage with Chief Huo, so that the alliance between us will be closer."

"If you have no objection, we can make a covenant first. When the eldest princess reaches the age of thirteen, she can get married to a great man. I don't know what the three of them mean." Du Ruhui said with a smile.

Wu Ping and the other three couldn't help but look at each other. Wu Ping and the others thought about marriage, but what they never expected was that Li Shimin was willing to marry Huo Gang, the eldest princess born to Empress Changsun.

This is quite sincere! You should know that the relationship between Li Shimin and Empress Changsun can be said to be known to everyone in the world. If the status of the prince and the princess is good, if the emperor and the queen have a good relationship, then the child born to the emperor and the queen will undoubtedly have the highest status.

As for princesses like marriage, if they are a little bit more, they can just find a palace maid and marry them. If they pay more attention, they may find a woman from the royal family to marry them directly. This is considered to be a very important thing.

Looking at the entire history, the real royal princesses married... no! The Han Dynasty was naturally the Han Dynasty, and the Han Dynasty had the most married princesses married were royal family women and palace maids.

Just like the famous Zhaojun of the Han Dynasty went to the frontier, Wang Zhaojun was a palace maid.

Li Shimin is willing to marry his biological daughter, and the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty, to Huo Gang. The most important thing is that those who can marry the emperor are all women with very high status. For example, those who can marry Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty are either women of outstanding ministers or women in the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes have this qualification.

Not only Wu Ping knew about this, but An Nuo and Mingyue were very clear about it, so the three of them looked at each other and saw the heart-warming in each other's eyes, because in their opinion, the one who is qualified to be Huo Gang in the world is Li Shimin's daughter.

Not to mention that the two sides are still so important allies, especially they are very clear that Huo Gang has a deeper meaning behind it. If that is the case, then having a relationship with the Tang Dynasty is naturally a better choice.

At that moment, Wu Ping said directly: "Thank you for your trust, so we naturally have no objection."

Annuo and Mingyue naturally won’t have any objections.

"Since that's the case, then our matter is decided." Du Ruhui said with a smile.

"This matter should be reported to our leader before making a decision." Annuo thought for a while and spoke.
