Chapter 717 Magnificent Horse Farm, Galloping Horses
Blue sky
white clouds,
The vast expanse of grasslands,
Countless horses galloping, or resting, or grazing with their heads down, suddenly appeared in front of Liu Yi and his party, in fact, it was not right to say that they appeared suddenly, because Liu Yi and they were still some distance away from here, they heard the loud sound that would only be made by the neighing of countless horses on the side of the racecourse.
But even if you are mentally prepared,
But Liu Yi was still shocked by the sight of thousands of horses galloping.
Not only Liu Yi,
Together with the smiling people who followed Liu Yi and climbed the hillside, their eyes widened, their lips opened slightly, and they looked at all this in front of them.
In the huge horse farm that could not be seen at a glance, there were as many as thirty or forty galloping horses that Liu Yi saw alone, and these horses that were running all looked like shiny fur, extraordinary horses, four hooves churning, long manes flying, and they were extremely magnificent!
Of course
With such a large range, it is natural that a single tribe will not be able to occupy it.
Besides, there are so many, at first glance, they look like horses as dense as ants, and they are by no means the family business that a tribe in modern society can save.
Now you don't need horses to fight,
Raising so many horses is not as cost-effective as in ancient times.
Listen to Sun Guoxing said, the grass here is fat, every season, the tender grass will grow again, for these horses, cattle and sheep to eat, it is precisely because of this that the tribes within five or six hundred miles around this area will drive the grazing horses to this side during this time.
meantime
In addition to grazing, it is also a natural sight for tourists to enjoy the unique scenery of this grassland.
"...... Uproar"
"It's really spectacular." Liu Yi let out a long breath and admired the people around him.
Smile They reacted one after another, and when they heard Liu Yi's words, they all nodded from the bottom of their hearts and said yes, this landscape also suppressed them, they are all southerners, not to mention Mongolia, even the cities north of the Yangtze River, they have not been to a few.
This suddenly saw the vastness of the northern grasslands, and they all turned red.
Liu Yi grew up in the hinterland of the Central Plains,
In the past two years, I have traveled to so many places and seen so many things.
But that's the case, Liu Yi still has a lot of places that he hasn't been to, and there are a lot of things he hasn't seen, such as the magnificent scene of thousands of horses galloping, which Liu Yi has never seen before, and the largest number of horses Liu Yi has seen before are the skinny horses scattered in the zoo.
Liu Yi smiled happily: "Let's go, ride a horse!" ”
"Eh, wait a minute."
Smiled and stopped a few people, and before a few people looked back at him, he explained first, "I guess I don't have all the photos here, and I don't have the momentum here, why don't we take a few photos here first, and play over there in the past?" ”
The words of the smile made several people stunned, and then naturally agreed-
"Well, that's right."
"Okay, then take a picture here first, everyone take a picture of themselves first, and take a group photo later."
Everyone was laughing and laughing, and they took pictures here.
Not long after, everyone's footsteps set off again, led by Sun Guoxing and the Mongolian brother, Liu Yi and they soon came to a few tents specially set up in this horse farm, where there were a few men in national costumes sitting and standing, the Mongolian brother greeted these people in Mongolian, and took Liu Yi and they continued to walk, until they came to a tent with a table in place, and they did not see the so-called staff.
The reason why this staff member uses the so-called word,
It is because these women are not so much staff as ordinary Mongolian women, who are full of honest simplicity and no shrewdness.
Honest people are good,
Good honest people.
After paying the fee, Liu Yi and the others followed the Mongolian brother into the horse farm, and the few Mongolian men who were chatting there before also came over with a smile on their faces at this time, this is a happy Wrangler who is related to whether they can play today.
There is almost no edge of the horse farm, and there are at least a thousand horses in it!
With such a large number, it is natural that there are many Mongolian men who are proficient in equestrianism who play the role of horse wranglers here.
In addition to the seven wranglers in front of Liu Yi,
In the racecourse,
There are also more than a dozen sturdy men riding on horses, holding things like horse poles, patrolling the margins of many horses, and many of the men inside are one person and two horses.
hot weather,
They wore no hats, their hair was blown up by the wind, and they had whips and spear-like poles in their hands, and they shouted from time to time, and they were heroic men.
Before entering the racecourse, there was a man who spoke Mandarin and listened well, and said to Liu Yi and them: "When you get inside, don't walk around, because the areas inside are divided, if you walk around, it is easy to meet horses that have not been tamed, horses are not terrible, what is terrible is to startle horses, if there is a horse that rushes towards you in shock, but there is no hero in the TV series who can fly over to save you." ”
This man's pronunciation is clear and clear, with a hint of humor,
Liu Yi and they smiled: "Don't worry, rest assured." ”
The man said: "The horses that will take you to sit in a while are all tame and very docile, but there is one thing that everyone must pay attention to, you can touch this horse, but you must not stand behind the horse and touch it, so it is easy to eat a horse's hooves, and you have to lie down directly, and if it is serious, you will have to send it to the hospital." ”
People talk about closely related safety precautions,
Liu Yi listened very attentively.
When the words were finished, everyone followed the men inside, and a large area was marked in the corner of the racecourse, surrounded by sticks, marked in a whole circle, but the sticks were not tight, and they were not considered fences.
"Sigh the law ......"
Inside, the horses occasionally snorted, shook their heads, and trampled their hooves indiscriminately.
Liu Yi looked at these horses, and always felt that they were not as tall as the horses seen in the TV series, until someone explained that the Mongolian horse breed itself is not a high-headed horse, but it is better than a strong body, a wide chest and a long mane, which can resist the unpredictable climate of the Mongolian desert very well.
I can withstand heat, too,
I can stand the cold,
In ancient times, the Mongolian horse that has been trained has always been a good military horse because it is not frightened or deceived on the battlefield, and it is extremely brave.
The man took Liu Yi and explained to Liu Yi the excellence and various habits of Mongolian horses as he walked, and when he came to a red horse, the man stopped and said to Liu Yi: "This horse is very docile and very spiritual, do you want to go up and try it?" ”
Liu Yi looked at the red horse in front of him, and looked at it a little,
As the man said, this Mongolian horse is indeed broad in the chest, long in mane, short in neck and big in head, although the limbs are not slender, but standing there, it is taller than Liu Yi, who is seven or eight meters tall, and the long mane is slightly swayed by a gust of wind, this horse looked at Liu Yi looking at its eyes, flickering,
"Hoo ......"
Liu Yi exhaled, feeling that what the man said was indeed right,
This horse,
It's really spiritual.
