Nanyang County has three Upper Counties, each with a population of over ten thousand: Bowan County, Ye County, and lastly Biyang County.
Bowan County has iron and silver mines, Ye County is known for its silk production, but Biyang County boasts a horse farm that the Northern Provinces envy.
The Da Liang Dynasty has always faced a shortage of war horses. The Da Liang Army numbers as many as six hundred thousand troops, with two hundred thousand stationed in the Capital City. They are equipped with armor and weapons; fifteen thousand are infantry, and only five thousand are cavalry equipped with war horses.
In reality, even among the five thousand cavalry, most are one rider per horse. Elite cavalry with two horses per rider are rarities.
