The training of the cavalry of the Zhao State was different from that of other countries.

Since Zhao Yong reformed the cavalry training of Zhao State, the cavalry of Zhao State can be roughly divided into two types: Daidi cavalry and Baijin cavalry.

The 100 gold cavalry, as the name suggests, is the cavalry trained by the 100 gold battalion in Handan, which is characterized by uniformity, that is, the cavalry selection standards of all the 100 gold battalions are the same, and it is a cavalry unit that has been screened for key training, not only has a set of horse breeding, management and training processes, soldiers also need to be trained on individual combat ability, and even the personal life of the cavalry is under management, almost isolated from the world, and it is a standard professional unit.

The difference between the Daidi cavalry and the Baijin cavalry is that the soldiers of the Daidi cavalry are converted from the original Zhao cavalry and foot soldiers to cavalry, and they are hired and recruited by the Hu people as soldiers. In particular, the two kinds of equipment such as the high bridge saddle and stirrup of the Zhao State, which are the most secret about horses, and special tools such as arrows and ponchos for various purposes, will not be equipped on the Daidi cavalry, and even daggers and drawing tools for individual combat are not available, only knives and crossbows.

It can be said that the Daidi cavalry represents the present of the Zhao State, while the Baijin Battalion represents the future of the Zhao State.

Zhao cavalry, whether it is the cavalry of the land or the cavalry of 100 gold, all require the cultivation of a tacit understanding with the horses, and when training, they absorb a lot of annoying living habits, for example, the cavalry must complete the cleaning work of the war horses independently, the tacit understanding of training and horses, and often live independently with the horses, and even Li Yan After Zhao Yong's suggestion, he engaged in team field combat training, etc., the purpose of which is why the cavalry is to be familiar with and understand the habits of their horses to the greatest extent, so as to achieve the maximum cooperation on the battlefield. This is also the part that Dixi is best at.

Dixi is an old man in the Baijin Camp, and he has known his horse for three years, almost to the point of connecting hearts. He is not the only son in the family, which is one of the reasons why he can become a soldier in the Baijin Battalion: the Baijin Battalion recruits, but the only son does not. Although it's only a long time now, it's still a little short of the lowest three soldiers, but it's a bit of a bargain.

He set out from the shore, walked along a path for about four miles, got off the horse, observed the situation around him, found nothing abnormal, patted his horse, pointed behind him, and the horse turned around and walked slowly towards the place designated by Dixi, looking for tender grass and feasting on it. Dixi smiled, found a big tree not far away, he took two steps back, ran, climbed the branches and climbed the branches, tried to be stable, leaned on the branches, took out the atlas and charcoal he had just taken out of the saddle, and began to describe the terrain he had walked all the way.

Before Zhao Yong came to the Warring States Period, he always thought that the high-tech thing of the brush was created by Meng Tian, the fierce general of the Qin State, but when he arrived in the Zhao State, he knew that in fact, the brush had existed since the Spring and Autumn Period, which surprised the person who came through it. Not only that, but even the charcoal pen already exists, which makes Zhao Yong greatly admired. However, the charcoal pen at this time is really calcined by charcoal, not as durable as later generations, even so, the Baijin Camp is also a person, plus the album, the purpose is to facilitate where to go, the map will be drawn where, when resting there will be a long or soldier to collect the map, back to Zhao State, naturally there are professionals to draw the map to connect. Therefore, Zhao Yong is in Handan, and he can also know the terrain of various places well, and the sand table in important areas of Handan can also be updated and supplemented from time to time.

Di Xi looked at the atlas, the drawing was almost done, looked up at the moon in the sky, and estimated that it was about a moment or so, according to Li Zhuo's arrangement, he and his people would not leave until at least the hour. Now that there were still three quarters to go, he thought about it and decided to go a little further. Just as he was about to roll over and descend from the tree, a fire suddenly rose in front of him. He hurriedly lowered his body to check what was going on, but he knew in his heart that it was definitely not a friendly army there.

Slowly, as the firelight approached, Dixi had seen clearly, the other party was a group of Qin soldiers, about ten people, riding war horses, wearing Qin's clothes, holding the open flame, standing in a formation and cautiously observing the surrounding situation. But there are still horses that are not hidden.

Seeing that the other party was not yet close, he jumped down from the tree from the side of his back, draped the poncho on his body, integrated his body shape with black, prostrate on the ground, his head was facing the patrolling Qin soldiers, and slowly retreated towards his horse. He had to step back cautiously and not make the slightest sound, otherwise the commotion caused by the abnormal noise might make Qin Bing's attention shift to his side, and the outline of the horse would be exposed.

When he retreated to the nearest tree to the horse, with his back against the tree, he said "what's the matter", the horse looked up at him, and then Dixi stretched out two fingers, first to himself, then to the fire not far away, and finally to the horse, and made a downward gesture three times. The horses had long been very transparent about this gesture, and did not move according to the instructions, but leaned straight to the ground, looking at the ground with joy.

Di Xi saw that the horse understood what he meant, and then visually measured the distance between himself and the Qin people, and looked at the nearby environment, and found that there was a relatively thick tree behind his left, about ten steps away, he bowed down, and moved backwards towards the tree, still moving while observing the movements of the Qin army, but at this time, the Qin army was more than a hundred steps away from him, and it was relatively safe.

Dixi moved to the back of the big tree, leaned against the trunk, and observed the Qin people sideways, covering his mouth with both hands, making a "cooing" sound. Immediately afterwards, not far from his front and back, there were also three "coo~meow" sounds, Dixi glanced at the position of the Qin people, and found that the other party stopped, knowing that the other party began to doubt, but he did not stop, and made a sound of "coo~meow", and soon, the three of them also responded.

At this time, the patrolling Qin people also realized the problem and began to yell and scream. Five of them dismounted, formed a circle, and walked in the direction of Dixi, who knew that the other party had begun to be frightened, and even began to raise his shield, lest a cold arrow be shot, and moved forward cautiously. Dixi knew that he couldn't hesitate any longer, took out a crossbow arrow from behind him, loaded it, and shot a crossbow arrow at the Qin people sideways, but did not load, and ran backwards with a low body, lest the Qin people find their horses, only to hear the sound of "ah", Dixi hid his body and found that there was one less person in the five-person formation of the Qin people.

"Over there!" A Qin man who stopped in place to guard pointed to the place where Di Xi was hiding and shouted. Although the five-person team was missing one person, they still rushed over to the ground with a shout. At this distance, it was too late to load the crossbow, and Dixi could only run backwards quickly to take the opposing four-person team away from the formation. As he ran, he threw down the poncho and ran towards the rear with all his strength, and the four Qin people behind him didn't care about accuracy, so they took out the crossbow arrows they were carrying and shot them towards the place where the earth was running and making a sound. Just when they were chasing Di Xi with all their might, the Qin people who were on guard in place suddenly fell to the ground, and the other two realized that they quickly extinguished the fire torches to prevent them from becoming targets for the other party, and surrounded all the horses in a circle, with themselves in the middle, forming a temporary defensive circle.

The Qin people who tracked Dixi finally realized that they should have fallen into the ambush circle of the other party, although listening to the signal just contacted, there should be only four people, but the enemy is dark and I am clear, if the strong pursuit, the whole army will definitely be annihilated, and the other party is ambushed here, then there must be an accident on the other side of the river, there is no need to entangle at this time, and it is the most important thing to go back to report the news, so he no longer pursues Dixi, formed a circle, held a shield, and carefully retreated to leave this woodland and return to the woodland with a wide field of vision.

However, just after a marathon of Dixi, how could they let them go like this, loaded the crossbow arrows, and raised their mouths to let out a sharp whistle, before the Qin people could react, they heard a neighing sound of war horses behind them, and then the sound of horses' hooves came to the moon, and several people relied on the firelight, saw a black horse running towards their four people, and quickly raised their crossbow arrows to shoot, and Dixi, who was on time, also stood up from hiding and launched towards the person who seemed to be the captain of the other four. The Qin people were concentrating on dealing with the sudden horses at the moment, where did they remember that there was a Di Xi behind them, and soon with a pop, they fell to the ground, and the other three saw that the captain was dead, and they could no longer care about the advance and retreat, and they all ran away, and even threw the torches on the ground.

At this time, there was nothing to hide, Dixi rode his horse and galloped towards the Qin people. The Qin people were happy to appear when they saw it, but they no longer had the fighting spirit, and they scattered in all directions, and the two continued to move forward along the path, but the three of them ran back in the direction they came.

Of course, Dixi would not let these people escape, otherwise Zhao Jun's move to cross the river would be recognized. If they die here, although the Qin army will also send a large force to search, but if it can be delayed a little, it will be delayed a little. He pulled his horse and galloped away towards the three people behind him. Qin Jun had naturally heard his voice, and even by the moonlight, he could vaguely distinguish Dixi's figure. At this time, two of them automatically broke away from the formation and went towards Dixi, it seems that the other party is ready to give up the lives of the two to stop Dixi, and the worst can also stop Dixi from chasing Robe, so that they can successfully deliver the news. Dixi no longer hesitated, put away the crossbow arrows behind his back, took out his machete and urged the war horse to gallop towards the two. The two Qin people, one on the left and one on the right, could no longer dodge when they tried to flank Di Xi at an appropriate distance, and the machete could only try their best to tilt to the right to avoid the slashing of the Qin army on the left. But obviously, the other party is not a vegetarian, the bronze sword of Qin Jun on the left slashed under Di Xi's ribs, and Di Xi felt Qin Jun's sharp bronze weapon through the pain command brought by his brain, which was so cold.

But there was no time to sigh and check the injury, Di Xi hurriedly pulled the horse's head, looking back and fighting again, this time, he passed through the two of them again, trying his best to bow down, Qin Jun saw him low, inertia slashed down, but suddenly sat down The war horse was in pain and swayed, just like that, the bronze sword was biased, and the bronze sword that was originally facing Di Xi's waist was just a slip of blood on Di Xi's leg, and then looked at his war horse, and there was also a wound on his body that Di Xi's weapon scratched. He was about to charge again, but he heard the neighing of the war horse not far away, followed by a popping sound of falling to the ground, and then accompanied by a miserable scream. The two men knew that the other party might have arranged an ambush behind them, and set up a tripwire, and after they entered the path, the tripwire was set up, just waiting for the other party to escape.

This is an obvious place of death, and the other party does not want to be able to escape, and does not even give them the slightest chance. The two Qin people looked at the injured Dixi, and they didn't flinch at all, and the bloody nature of the Qin people also rushed to their hearts.

Since you won't let us live, let's fight to the death! Urging the war horse, he rushed to the ground again.
