"What a good horse!" Ren Gang brushed the dust off his body, came to the horse, and circled around it.
Lin Feng asked, "General Ren, how would these horses rank among war horses?"
"Judging from their running speed just now, these horses are swift and agile, with quick hooves, and can be considered first-class horses. However, the classification of war horses is different. It mainly depends on their obedience and endurance when charging." Ren Gang explained.
"How long does it take to train them to become qualified war horses?" Lin Feng asked.
Ren Gang replied, "We need to train them to jump obstacles, gallop, and charge. This can take anywhere from a few days to several months, depending on their comprehension. It's hard to say for sure, as most of them will have to be eliminated. A good horse isn't necessarily suitable for war."
Lin Feng nodded, agreeing with his point of view. He smiled and said to Ren Gang, "Let's make a bet. I bet these horses can become qualified war horses within seven days."
"Oh? Are you so optimistic about them?" Ren Gang was a little skeptical.
Lin Feng smiled calmly: "Yes! I am so confident and I am very optimistic about the abilities of these horses."
After drinking the spiritual spring water, these horses developed some intelligence. It can be seen from the fact that they run to other horse farms together to beat other horses that their intelligence is extraordinary.
"Hearing you are so confident, I dare not gamble. You know, my position as general has been removed, and I have to save some money to support my family!" Ren Gang said that he would not gamble with him, and he could not afford to gamble now.
"I'm not betting with you on money, I'm only betting on you as a person. If you lose, follow me, and I will be responsible for providing you and your family with food and drink. Moreover, the treatment is no worse than when you were a general, and there is even a surplus." Lin Feng said. His purpose was to win over Ren Gang. After some time, when his child was born, he would take his family away from here to live on the island. It was also necessary to bring more trustworthy people with him.
"Oh? You'll be so nice? In that case, I'll agree to it, but what if you lose?" Ren Gang asked with a smile.
"If I lose, I will give you 5,000 kilograms of rye." Lin Feng said casually.
"It's a deal?" Ren Gang's eyes lit up instantly when he heard that he could be given so much food. At this critical juncture, money and goods are not as cost-effective as food. After all, he would not suffer any loss even if he lost the bet.
"I never tell lies! But you can't be a rogue and not train them well." Lin Feng patted his chest and promised.
"I can't do that kind of thing! In that case, let's high-five and swear an oath!" Ren Gang hurriedly stepped forward and high-fived Lin Feng and swore an oath.
In this way, Ren Gang and his men set up barracks at the horse farm.
Lin Feng was very happy about this. With Ren Gang's company, he sent Xin the Hunter and Da Zhuzi back.
After a few days of treatment and nourishment with spiritual spring water, Ren Gang's injuries were finally fully recovered. In response, Ren Gang kowtowed to Lin Feng. He really didn't expect that he would be disfigured, but he would be cured in such a short time.
After his wounds healed, he trained the horses more seriously and diligently. What shocked him was that these horses were so smart that they didn't seem like animals. They were like little prodigies who learned everything very quickly.
In the end, just as Lin Feng said, in just six days, these war horses got full marks in jumping over obstacles, galloping, and walking according to commands, which made Ren Gang feel a little unreal.
He felt it was unreal, and the captain of the horse farm also felt it was unreal. One day, he brought an old man here. According to him, this man was his master and his superior.
The old man's surname was Jia. He personally inspected the horses and watched their training. After that, he fell silent and became taciturn.
"Master, what's wrong?" asked the captain.
Old Man Jia sighed, "People say heroes emerge in troubled times, and the same is true for horses. This also foreshadows the coming chaos. These horses are simply divine. I have been judging horses for many years, but I have never seen so many spiritual horses appear at the same time. If you don't believe me, bring over the war horses from the stables and let us race them. You will understand the source of my shock."
The captain thought about it and sent people to drive away the war horses.
This batch of war horses were newly transported and had a very wild temperament. Each one was very tall, with strong limbs and well-developed muscles. Their coats were evenly colored and shone in the sun. They were obviously top-quality horses at first glance.
But what made everyone laugh and cry was that as soon as these war horses arrived, the inferior horses swarmed in and surrounded these good horses. Some horses were very fierce and wanted to bite and fight with them when they were surrounded by the inferior horses.
But a group of crossbow horses never fight alone. One horse bites the legs, one horse kicks the waist, and another horse charges. In just a moment, the wild horse is knocked to the ground, causing it to neigh incessantly.
"Hiss!" The captain took a breath. It turned out that the strength of these horses was only superficial, and their intelligence was what made people applaud the most.
"Do you understand? These horses are truly amazing! They're a team. As long as they're on the battlefield, cavalry versus cavalry, they're bound to win!" Old Man Jia exclaimed in admiration. After he finished speaking, he came up to Lin Feng and asked, "Did you train all these horses?"
Lin Feng shook his head, pointed at Ren Gang and said, "I don't have that ability. I'm just a groom. The one who trains the horses is that guy."
Lin Fengcai didn't want to get involved in all this mess. He was just a groom who was just trying to make a living. His real pursuit was to spend time with his family.
"Oh?" Old man Jia asked in doubt. This was different from what his disciple said!
But he still went to talk to Ren Gang. Old Man Jia was a good horse breeder, and Ren Gang was a good horse trainer, so the two of them could get along well.
