Zhao Di couldn't see Yang Yanding's smiling expression under the mask, only to see him wave his hand and say, "No need, Seventh Brother really took great pains to let so many of you act together to deceive me." ”

The smile on Zhao Di's face froze, and he laughed dryly, "Heh...... The second general laughed, how could we lie to you? ”

Yang Yanding smiled coldly, "Although the seventh brother has abandoned martial arts and followed literature, after all, he was born in Jiangmen, and he has learned some essentials of commanding troops since he was a child. How could the cavalry be trained so badly. ”

Geng Jinhua said with a smile: "Seventh Brother knows that you are good at controlling cavalry, so I want to use this clumsy tactic to arouse the anger in your heart and lure you to attack, so as to achieve the goal of keeping you." ”

Yang Yanding looked at Zhao Di and sneered: "Is my husband and wife's analysis right? ”

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Zhao Di coughed a few times dryly, hiding the embarrassment in his heart.

This strategy was actually proposed by Zhao Di.

Yang Yansi warned him that this kind of strategy couldn't hide from Yang Yanding's eyes at all, he didn't believe in evil, so he tried it.

Now, it has been debunked at a glance.

"The second general and the second lady are really as wise as torches, this little trick has not been hidden from the eyes of the two at all. Please move to see the true capabilities of our army. ”

If the conspiracy does not work, then use an upright conspiracy.

Zhao Di believed that as long as he took Yang Yanding to see the Quanzi Battalion, the crossbow soldiers of Qingyishui, and saw the power of the crossbow array, he would definitely be able to conquer him.

Unexpectedly, Yang Yanding did not follow his script at all.

I saw Yang Yanding shaking his head and said indifferently: "There is no need to watch it in the barracks." To be able to train such elite people, there must be other killer features. It's just that I'm not interested in staying at the camp anymore. You'd better take me around the city of Myza. ”

Zhao Di was stunned when he heard this, and he was unwilling, but he couldn't force Yang Yanding to stay in the barracks, so he could only take him to Miza City according to Yang Yanding's instructions.

"Second General, please."

The three of them left the barracks and set foot on the gallop into the city of Miza.

The galloping road of Miza City, after several repairs, the flat road covered with loess is paved with a layer of small broken stones.

"The trail is very smooth, but the small gravel on the trail hurts the horses' hooves."

Yang Yanding looked at the smooth gallop and gave his own evaluation.

The invention of the horseshoe, or horseshoes, can be traced back to the first century BC.

However, the current Song Dynasty did not have such a thing.

The damage of gravel to horses' hooves is very serious, and the number of war horses lost by gravel in the Great Song Dynasty army every year is as high as tens of thousands.

This is also the reason why Yang Yanding commented on the gravel paving.

When Zhao Di heard Yang Yanding's words, he was happy, and finally had a chance for him to perform.

The corners of his mouth rose, and he smiled mysteriously: "The second general doesn't know, this gallop has been paved for more than three months, and not a single horse has been damaged by small gravel so far. ”

After saying this, Zhao Di waited to hear Yang Yanding's exclamation.

After waiting for a long time, I only heard Yang Yanding say nonchalantly: "Jiaozhi is a young horse, this gallop road leads directly into the city, and there are many pedestrians on the road." Even if you want to ride a horse into the city, you will not ride your horse and gallop wildly, and try to slow down as much as possible. In this way, it is naturally difficult to detect the damage caused to horses by small rubble. ”

"Whew~"

Zhao Di exhaled a breath of turbid air and said in a deep voice: "I really don't have many days to ride a horse on weekdays. But galloping horses is a common occurrence. ”

"Blowing Big Talk......

Yang Yanding sneered.

Zhao Di was angry, "The subordinates will confirm it with the second general to see if the subordinates have said big things." ”

Since it has just come out of the barracks, it is not far from the barracks.

Zhao Di took his token and dispatched ten cavalry from the barracks.

In fact, he wanted to dispatch more, and wanted to deter Yang Yanding fiercely.

However, he did not have enough authority to transfer troops.

Yang Yansi is very meticulous in the division of power among his subordinates.

Zhao Di is the leader of the scarecrow and controls the entire scarecrow. Under Yang Yansi, he can also be regarded as the second person.

However, in his capacity, he could only send ten horsemen from the barracks at most.

Depending on the affiliation, the size of the authority will be different.

Ten heavily armed cavalrymen in armor, with long swords at their waists and crossbows on their backs, were brought in.

Zhao Di fixed his face in front of Yang Yan and ordered: "Wait, from now on, take this as a point, gallop to the City Lord's Mansion, and then turn back, and so on." An hour later, the order was given at the gate of the city lord's mansion. ”

"No!"

Ten cavalrymen, according to Zhao Di's orders, rode away wildly.

Yang Yanding looked at the back of the cavalry who had already gone away, and asked, "We won't just wait here for an hour, right?" ”

Zhao Di shook his head with a gloomy face, "Please enter the city with your subordinates, and after an hour, at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, you can confirm it and see if your subordinates are lying." ”

Yang Yanding hesitated, nodded, and followed Zhao Di into the city along the gallop road.

Yang Yanding turned his head sideways to Geng Jinhua and said in a deep voice as he walked: "Madam, have you noticed the equipment of the ten horsemen just now. Their equipment was very different from what they had just seen in the camp. ”

When they were in the camp, they saw the armor and long knives of the cavalry, but they did not see all the equipment of these cavalry.

Geng Jinhua nodded, slightly amazed, "Chain mail, scimitar, crossbow, and the concubine also saw two short spears on horseback, both of which were forged from stainless steel, and the craftsmanship was excellent."

This piece of equipment, in Bianjing City, is less than 200 yuan, and it can't be purchased.

The seventh brother can organize them into an army, and let people call them at will. This shows that the number of cavalry in the army is not less than three thousand.

To support such a cavalry, I am afraid that it will cost a lot of money. I don't know that the seventh brother has so much money from him? ”

In ancient times, the amount of money spent to train an excellent cavalry was enough to train hundreds of infantrymen.

Those who are familiar with the "History of the Song Dynasty" should be no stranger to the iron harriers of Western Xia.

Li Yuanhao relied on 3,000 iron harriers to gallop on the battlefield, and he was invincible.

And in order to build these three thousand iron harriers, he almost exhausted the national strength of the entire Western Xia.

From this, it can be deduced that in ancient times, it cost a lot of money to train an elite cavalry.

This is also the reason why Yang Yanding and Geng Jinhua were surprised when they saw that the cavalry was fully equipped.

From the moment he saw all the equipment of the cavalry, Yang Yanding was obsessed with this cavalry.

The side-knocker asked Zhao Di, "Like this kind of cavalry, how many are there in Miza City?" ”

Zhao Di raised his eyebrows, causing Yang Yanding to take the initiative to ask, which showed that the cavalry had shocked him.

Zhao Di couldn't help but straighten his chest and said, "There are few horses in Jiaozhi, and there are only three thousand two hundred war horses that can be used at present. In addition to the horses of the generals of the battalions, there were three thousand one hundred and six left, all of which were under the control of the cavalry. ”
