Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 38 New Year and Military Parade



Chapter 38 New Year and Military Parade

In the twelfth month of the lunar calendar, Yizhou Island is cold and windy.

No snow, almost a little poetic.

Red lanterns have been hung on the doorsteps of many people in Dongning Prefecture.

Lanterns sway and embellish in the cold wind, bringing a touch of warmth to the cold winter.

"It's almost Chinese New Year, Your Highness Jian Guo." Su Laocheng said to Zheng Kezang while counting the days.

Even though his family has been killed by the swords of the Tartars, Su Laocheng still maintains a sense of ritual for the New Year.

After all, the Chinese people depend on the sky for their food. The tradition of farming civilization for thousands of years has already been deeply ingrained in their bones.

"Yeah, it's almost Chinese New Year, so we have to organize some activities to celebrate." Zheng Kezang began to study what kind of activities he could hold, which would not only improve his prestige, but also make everyone happy.

"Old Su, how many Fuhua-style flintlock guns and breastplates have been produced?" Zheng Kezang asked.

The Fuhua-style flintlock gun is the French 1777 flintlock gun exchanged by the system. Zheng Kezang gave it a new name with a good meaning.

Lao Su hurried in and picked up the notebook, looked at the pattern and Arabic numerals on the notebook, the number next to the gun pattern was 1500, and the number next to the armor pattern was 2000.

After reading it, Old Su said, "Your Highness, the Fuhua-style flintlock firearms workshop has produced 1500 pieces and 2000 pairs of breastplates."

Arabic numerals began to be used in China in the early [-]th century. For the convenience of management, Zheng Kezang promoted Arabic numerals in his various industrial chains, so that even illiterate people can understand them.

"That's okay, I'll let the guards come to the warehouse to take away all the equipment, and continue to work hard on the steelworks and firearms." Zheng Kezang encouraged.

"Yes, Your Highness, I promise to complete the task." With Zheng Kezang's encouragement, Lao Su was very happy.

Zheng Kezang has already thought of what to do during the Chinese New Year, and that is to have a military parade to show his good relatives and Dongning veterans their muscles.

Chinese New Year morning in 1680.

The streets of Dongning Mansion were full of ordinary people who came out to watch the excitement, and they were all waiting for the military parade ceremony of His Highness Jian Guo.

Over the past year, through the construction of Zheng Kezang and Chen Yonghua, Dongning Mansion has expanded a lot, the roads are spacious and more prosperous, and the clean and tidy cement roads reveal vigorous vitality.

At this time, the streets were empty, and Chen Yonghua commanded the soldiers in Yongwei Town to do a good job of maintaining order and stability. Everyone stretched their necks, waiting for the military parade to begin.

While everyone was waiting, loud and clear singing came from afar.

""Full of enthusiasm, fight to the death to decide!Exterminate the Jurchens and build slaves, and restore our country.There is no lowliness in princes and princes, and the feudal marquis is now.Resist the establishment of slaves, regain China, and restore my dynasty..."

This is a military song written by Zheng Kezang for the Guards!

Under the enthusiastic singing, rows of Guards soldiers wearing black military coats and bayonets like forests appeared with neat steps.

Today, instead of breastplates, they wore coats designed by Zheng Kezang imitating the German military uniforms of World War II, which were very impressive.

The biggest characteristic of these fighters is their youth, the oldest is no more than 25 years old, and most of them are only 17 or [-] years old.

"These soldiers are elite..."

Although Ye Heng, the ceremonial official of the Zheng Xiao court in the Ming Dynasty, was not an expert in leading troops to fight, he could tell at a glance that the thousand Guards soldiers in front of him were the best of the best. Looking at it makes people unconsciously feel a chill.

Originally, there were noisy voices on Dongningfu Street, but when the soldiers of the Guards came out singing military songs, the common people couldn't help being shocked by the thick and passionate singing, and there was a sense of sympathy in their hearts, and their blood boiled.

"Prepare for the salute!" Following the order of the commander Liu Lai, the gunners who had already prepared the salute immediately lit the salute. In an instant, the sky above Dongning Mansion was bright, showing bright colors.

At this time, the residents of Dongning Mansion and people from all over the country who came to watch the military parade had already crowded both sides of the avenue.

It is not an exaggeration to say that Dongning Mansion is empty of thousands of people. Even women who seldom show their faces have sneaked out of the house, mixed into the crowd, and squeezed on both sides of the avenue, just to see the soldiers of the Guards figure.

Not long after, guards wearing German overcoats came to the crowd neatly.

Their steps were so neat that it seemed as if they were drawn with a straightedge. Each square, row of soldiers, and their movements were all carved from the same mold.

This demonstrates the strict military discipline of the Guards.

The army is unusual. What the army pays attention to is that the military order is like a mountain and the command is unified. After such an army goes to the battlefield, its mobility and combat effectiveness are the strongest.

The first group of cavalry passing by was a group of one hundred cavalry, they were the elite cavalry of the first brigade of the first battalion of the Guards, led by Pan Aqiang.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Yang came towards the people. He led a line of infantry phalanxes and walked towards the people.

Immediately afterwards came the artillery brigade led by Qin Zhiguo, who came slowly with horses and red cannons.

Zheng Kezang hasn't studied the new type of cannon yet, so he will use the Hongyi cannon for the time being.

The last one to appear is the phalanx representing the second phase of the Dongning Military Academy!

Their eyes are unusually firm, and their military posture and military appearance are stronger than those of the guards in front. After all, they are all future officers, and they can't do without two brushes.

After their appearance, they headed towards the temporary high platform in the center of Dongning Mansion.

During the military parade, the infantry phalanx lined up by the Guards advanced steadily at a uniform pace.

On the way, the deputy commander Chen Wei suddenly ordered: "Use the bayonet!"

After hearing this command, the Guards soldiers suddenly slammed their guns forward twice, and the sharp bayonet was drawn out instantly. This sudden change from static to dynamic had a very strong visual impact on the people at the parade site.

The people who are close can feel it the most. The feeling brought by the guard's action of splitting the gun is simply too passionate and imposing.

After arriving at the destination, the soldiers of the Guards stood in a straight military posture, waiting for Zheng Kezang to review.

Not long after, Zheng Kezang, wearing the military uniform of the Marshal, appeared on a white horse in the eyes of everyone!
"Long live the prison! Long live China!"

For a moment, the guards roared like rolling thunder, and the civil servants of the Zheng Xiao court couldn't help but feel dizzy, and they only felt that their minds were shocked.

The civil servants all claim to know the soldiers, because they all came here at the end of the Ming Dynasty. They have seen a lot of fighting and killing, and the generals have seen a lot, but after seeing the military appearance of the Guards today, they know what a strong army is. !

"Soldiers, you have worked hard!" Zheng Kezang rode a white horse and walked slowly in front of the phalanx.

The guards responded in unison: "Expel the Tartars and restore China!"

"drive"

"Tap..."

Zheng Kezang suddenly urged the white horse to gallop around the soldiers.

"Soldiers, speak up, I can't hear you alone!"

"Recover Huaxia, destroy the slaves!"

"Long live the prison country!"
