This always makes Li Wangyou have an illusion, has he traveled back to the later life again?Are you sitting in the stands at this moment, surrounded by fanatical fans and watching a football game?

As the game progressed, Li Wangyou also began to devote himself to it, following the dandy's loud applause or cursing.

On the field, from time to time, a batsman rolled off his horse under the violent impact of the horse, which often caused a burst of exclamation from the crowd.After the batter got up again and signaled that he was okay, there would be another huge cheer from the sidelines.

The rapid sound of horseshoes, like stepping on Li Wangyou's heart, made his heart beat accordingly.He dared to touch his chest and swear that he really fell in love with this exciting sport.

Exciting, so exciting!

The intensity and observability of polo far surpassed that of football games in later generations. The faster speed and stronger power made him love polo completely.

Thinking that polo would disappear from China in later generations, Li Wangyou felt deeply regretful. Fortunately, he is now in the prosperous Tang Dynasty and can witness the charm of this sport for himself.

The rules of the polo game are similar to the basketball of the later generations. There are three breaks in the middle of the game. There are four quarters in total. Hours.

The rest time is used to replace the horses. The horses running at high speed do not have enough physical strength to run the whole game with all their strength.

At the end of the first quarter, Li Wangyou felt his throat hurt a little.Obviously, I was too involved just now, and shouted too hard, which hurt my vocal cords a little.

But he didn't care, he stretched out his hand to take the water and wine from Niu Wu, and poured it with his head raised.

"Great! Brothers, today is really the right time, haha, have fun!"

"Haha, I said Ziyou would like it, come on, everyone, win a drink!" The sixteen guards of Nanya are now leading the score, and Cheng Chumo and others are also in a good mood.

When the crowd was bustling, Wei Shuyu seemed to see something terrifying, the pupils in his eyes shrank violently, and then he dodged and hid behind the fat man Qiu Kun...

330 Sheep-nosed male

There is only one person in the entire Tang Dynasty who can scare Wei Shuyu to such an extent.

Shangshu Zuocheng, Yushi doctor, Zheng Guogong, Wei Zheng, Wei Shuyu's biological father.

This well-known direct minister in history was so angry that Li Er was often furious, wishing he could draw his sword and slash people, but Wei Zheng, who was helpless against him, could be regarded as the "business card" of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

Li Er likes to play with eagles, and someone from his courtiers presented a kite eagle, and Li Er couldn't put it down.

One day when Li Er was playing eagle, Wei Zheng asked to see him.Li Er was afraid of Wei Zheng's nagging, so he stuffed the eagle into his arms to hide.In the end, Wei Zheng wasn't a good guy either, and after seeing the clues, he deliberately rambled and talked nonsense.

When Wei Zheng retreated with difficulty, Li Er had already strangled the hawk to death in his arms.

Even Li Er was afraid of Wei Zheng's nagging, let alone Wei Shuyu's own son, seeing his father was more miserable than a mouse meeting a cat.

Wei Zheng doesn't like polo, so Wei Shuyu didn't expect to meet his own father today.Suddenly seeing Wei Zheng appearing, Wei Shuyu subconsciously trembled like chaff, and hid behind fat Qiu Kun.

But Wei Zheng didn't seem to see his son, but went straight to Li Erbai.

"Your Majesty, I have something to ask for advice!"

Li Er was very happy watching Ji Wuzheng today, but when he saw Wei Zheng appearing, he couldn't help but feel a headache.

Don't look at Li Er later ordered people to set up portraits of 24 heroes in Lingyan Pavilion, and ranked Wei Zheng fourth, but it doesn't mean that Li Er will be happy when he sees Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng's remonstrances in his life amounted to "more than hundreds of thousands of words", the number of times, the fervor of his words, and the firmness of his attitude, he can be called the head of the court officials.

Although Li Er couldn't do without him, he still felt headaches.

This is also human nature, no one can stand someone nagging in their ears every day, no matter how correct the words are, they can't stand it.

Li Er even nicknamed Wei Zheng, who was so obsessed with the world and the land, Yangbi Gong.

This is also the only nickname Li Er has given to others in his life, which means that this sheep-nosed old man is as aggressive as a goat: "Sex is resistant and straightforward, and he is unyielding."

For Wei Zheng, Li Er hated and couldn't leave him, and was very distressed.

Seeing that Wei Zheng had another suggestion to make, he couldn't help frowning, stretched out his hand and rubbed his temple: "Wei Gong, I have something to do after this fight is over, how about we talk about it?"

"Your Majesty, you can't! I'm here just to ask you to stop this attack." Wei Zheng didn't give Li Er any face, and directly turned back.

Li Er was taken aback when he heard the words: "Stop hitting the gun? Why?"

"Because of the horse!"

"Horse?" Li Er was confused by Wei Zheng's words.

The conversation between the monarch and his ministers naturally spread to everyone's ears, and everyone present was also baffled by Wei Zheng's words. It was so good, why did this attack offend this sheep-nosed man again?

"Your Majesty, do you know how much copper coins a horse is for Turkic Dunma?" Wei Zheng asked with a straight face.

Li Erlue pondered for a while: "Copper coins range from fifty to a hundred coins per horse."

"That's right, last year my Tang Dynasty purchased 20 war horses from various countries in the Western Regions, and spent a total of more than 5000 copper coins, which is more than [-] taels of gold. Does Your Majesty know how many Turkic war horses were eliminated from the army last year?" Wei Zheng continued to question.

"This..." Li Er seemed to know what Wei Zheng was going to say, and his face became a little ugly.

Wei Zheng didn't wait for Li Er's answer, and said to himself: "Last year, the army eliminated a total of more than [-] horses, all because the horseshoes were damaged and they couldn't bear the weight."

Pointing to the polo field, he continued: "Your Majesty, Turkic war horses are so precious, how can they be used for play? It is not easy to buy and breed war horses, so how can they be used in such a way? Your Majesty, please issue an imperial decree to forbid the army from fighting!"

After Wei Zheng finished speaking, Li Er, who was very dissatisfied with his words, and all the big men in the army fell silent at this moment.

They had to admit that what the sheep-nosed man said was indeed true.

Datang has no shortage of horses, but not all horses can be used as war horses.In the era of cold weapons, cavalry is the most powerful army, so the source and breeding of war horses are very important.

Most of the horses in the Central Plains are relatively short and not suitable for war horses. The best war horses are Turkic horses.

After Li Tang established the throne, Li Er personally ordered to select 2000 Turkic horses and 3000 remaining horses from the official horse farms of the Sui Dynasty, and graze them in Longyou, with the purpose of breeding excellent war horses.

But even so, Datang still needs to buy a large number of Turkic horses from the Western Regions every year to supplement the shortage of war horses.

On the polo field, the horses used for competitions are even more carefully selected, the best horses.

Naturally, Wei Zheng couldn't see Li Er and the dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty, using these precious war horses to play polo, which would only increase the damage of the horses. This is simply a prodigal behavior.

Li Er, who felt he was in the wrong, as well as the big bosses of the Sixth Army of the North Yam and the Sixteen Guards of the South Yam, stopped talking at the moment.

Even Cheng Yaojin, who was always bluffing, kept his mouth shut and remained silent.

Wei Zheng, the sheep-nosed man, was right, but neither Li Er nor these big shots were willing to ask Li Er to issue an imperial edict prohibiting beating.

The scene became quite awkward for a while.

Li Wangyou heard the conversation clearly, but was a little confused.

In his opinion, playing polo is a very good sport. Although the horse needs to run, it is not as serious as what Wei Zheng said, right?

How many more polo games can the war horse still be useless?Isn't this funny?
