"What? Did the Han and Tang Empires really enter the world of fierce beasts? The Golden Lion Emperor Kosno asked with a shocked expression.

Prime Minister Salento nodded with a solemn expression, "Your Majesty, the intelligence department of our Golden Lion Empire in Heavenly Saint City has already found out.

The Han and Tang Empires not only used some special means to change a different space-time node leading to the world of fierce beasts near their capital Tiansheng City from a one-way passage to a two-way channel, but also obtained an astonishing amount of gold from the world of fierce beasts.

The reason why the Han and Tang Empires dared to build 80 super aircraft carriers and 80 super battleships at the same time was probably because the Han and Tang Empires got a lot of gold from the beast world.

As for how much gold the Han and Tang Empires obtained, it has not yet been clarified, but it is certain that it is definitely counted in 10,000 tons. ”

Emperor Kosno said in a deep voice: "The Han and Tang Empire's method of turning the different space-time nodes of the one-way channel into a two-way channel has been found out?"

Also, what's going on over there in the beast world? Could it be that there are also intelligent races? ”

"Your Majesty, the special methods of the Han and Tang Empires, the intelligence department has not found out so far.

However, the intelligence department has confirmed that there are indeed intelligent races on the side of the beast world, and it is through trade with the intelligent races in the beast world that the Han and Tang Empires have exchanged for so much gold. ”

Emperor Kosno immediately said: "At all costs, we must also get the Han and Tang Empire's method of turning a one-way channel different time and space node into a two-way channel different time and space node."

A world where there is a lot of gold must not be enjoyed exclusively by the humans of the Han and Tang Empires! ”

Although the Golden Lion Empire was not directly seized by the Han and Tang Empires over more than 13 million square kilometers of land like the Red Tiger Empire, the Golden Lion Empire also suffered a lot of losses in this war, and it also consumed a lot of money.

For example, the Golden Lion Empire has issued a full 40 billion silver coins of war bonds, of which the first 20 billion silver dollars of war bonds have long been spent.

Although the war ended prematurely due to the collapse of the Nine Nations Military Alliance, there was still a lot left in the second 20 billion silver coins of war national debt.

However, in order to revitalize the navy, the Golden Lion Empire invested most of the remaining funds from the sale of war bonds into the major shipyards of the Golden Lion Empire, and built a large number of warships.

The war debt needs to be repaid, and interest must be added, which is equivalent to putting a heavy burden on the Golden Lion Empire.

Hearing that the Han and Tang Empires had obtained tens of thousands of tons of gold from the Beast World, the Emperor of the Golden Lion Empire, Kosno, suddenly turned red.

Prime Minister Salento nodded and said, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the next focus of the Imperial Intelligence Department is to figure out how the Han and Tang Empires turned a one-way channel into a two-way channel." ”

Emperor Kosno then asked, "When will the 40 Mad Lion-class super battleships and 100 Poison Lotus-class aircraft carriers be ready for service?" ”

The Mad Lion class is a super battleship designed and built by the Golden Lion Empire after learning that the Han and Tang Empires had built a super battleship with a displacement of more than 100,000 tons, with a full load displacement of 106,000 tons, a maximum speed of 27 knots, and a cost of up to 100 million silver coins.

It is equipped with 5 triple 45-caliber 470 mm main guns, 5 triple 200 mm secondary guns, 36 80 mm high-level dual-purpose guns, 140 30-mm anti-aircraft guns, and 40 18-mm anti-aircraft machine guns.

The broadside armor belt was up to 500 mm thick, the main deck armor was 230 mm, the main turret armor was 600 mm, and the full crew was 3290 people.

The Poison Lotus-class aircraft carrier has a full load displacement of 49,500 tons and can carry 135 carrier-based aircraft.

The Golden Lion Empire originally built 50 ships first, but after the Golden Lion Empire signed an armistice agreement with the Han and Tang Empires, the Golden Lion Empire added another 50 Poison Lotus-class aircraft carriers.

40 Mad Lion-class super battleships and 100 Poison Lotus-class aircraft carriers are the core of the Golden Lion Empire's plan to revitalize the navy.

Prime Minister Salento replied: "Your Majesty, in July next year, almost the first batch of 50 Poison Lotus-class aircraft carriers will be ready for service.

The remaining 50 Poison Lotus-class aircraft carriers, around the end of next year, can also be delivered to the Royal Navy of the Empire.

As for the 40 Mad Lion-class super battleships, because there are some technical difficulties, it will take another 2 years at the earliest before they can join the sequence of the Imperial Royal Navy. ”

"By the way, have you heard that in a few days, the Han and Tang Empires will hold a National Day military parade?" Emperor Kosno abruptly changed the subject.

Prime Minister Salento nodded and said: "The Han and Tang Empires are indeed preparing to hold a National Day military parade, and our Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Golden Lion Empire in Tiansheng City is also invited to prepare to observe this National Day military parade of the Han and Tang Empires." ”

Today is February 5, 1553, and Zhou Rui ascended the throne on February 10, 1550, so the Han and Tang Empires set February 10 as the National Day.

After the Han and Tang Empires successively annexed the Qi'an, Western and Eastern Qin empires, the land area had expanded to 99.06 million square kilometers and the population had increased to 3.48 billion.

It can definitely be used to describe Zhou Rui's exploits.

At the suggestion of many high-ranking officials of the Han and Tang Empires, Zhou Rui decided to hold a National Day military parade on the third anniversary of his accession to the throne to celebrate.

It's a pity that the TV set has not yet been developed, otherwise Zhou Rui would even prepare to broadcast the National Day military parade live to the whole country.

However, the Imperial Ministry of Culture will later edit this National Day military parade into a movie and broadcast it in cinemas across the country.

The day before the National Day military parade of the Han and Tang Empires, in a village on the outskirts of Tiansheng City, Cui Wentao, who had been disfigured, asked a confidant in a deep voice: "Is there a chance to assassinate Zhou Rui?" ”

The henchman smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, the people participating in the parade this time will go through several inspections before entering the observation area, and it is impossible for our people to bring weapons in.

And at this time, the houses around the main entrance of the palace have been emptied, and it is impossible to arrange snipers, I am afraid that there will be no chance this time. ”

Cui Wentao sighed and said: "Forget it if you don't, anyway, the tasks given to us above are mainly to collect intelligence."

The focus of our next work is to find out what means the Han and Tang Empires used to turn the one-way channel different time and space nodes into two-way channel different time and space nodes. ”

"My lord, the Han and Tang Empires have a very strict blockade on this matter, and we haven't found anyone who knows about this matter so far, I'm worried that we won't find any results if we check it out."

Cui Wentao said in a solemn tone: "The above has issued a death order, and this matter must be investigated, for which a special fund has been allocated to us."

You go back and comb through the informants we have in your possession and see if you can get anything out of it.

As long as someone can provide a useful clue, we reward them with a lot of money. ”

In the palace of the Heavenly Saint City of the Han and Tang Empires, Zhou Rui and Empress Liu Yiqiu were standing in a martial arts training ground, watching the crown prince Zhou Jun practice a set of sword techniques.

Zhou Jun's martial arts training qualifications are very good, and he has primary physical fitness enhancement potions and intermediate physical fitness enhancement potions to take, and the crown prince Zhou Jun, who is only 16 years old now, has been promoted to a grandmaster martial artist.

Zhou Rui has never prescribed 8 bottles of high-level physical fitness enhancement elixirs since he prescribed them, otherwise with Zhou Jun's martial arts training qualifications, taking a bottle of high-level physical fitness enhancement elixir is enough to be promoted to a great grandmaster martial artist.

Of course, if Zhou Jun can be promoted to the Great Grandmaster by virtue of his own efforts, then if he takes a high-level physical fitness enhancement potion, he will most likely be promoted to a Legendary Grandmaster.

Zhou Rui watched Zhou Jun swing the steel knife out of afterimages, and couldn't help but nod with relief.

To be honest, if Zhou Rui is allowed to fight his son now, Zhou Rui feels that he should not be his son's opponent.

Zhou Rui immediately turned his head and said to Queen Liu Yiqiu: "Tomorrow is the first time that Xiaojun will appear in front of the Chinese people, are you ready for clothes or anything?" ”

Tomorrow's big military parade, Zhou Rui, Liu Yiqiu, and Zhou Jun will be directly on the main gate tower of the palace to review the various troops participating in the parade.

In the past, because of his young age, Zhou Rui never let the prince Zhou Jun come to the forefront, and the people of the entire Han and Tang Empires only knew that the prince's name was Zhou Jun, but they didn't even know what the prince Zhou Jun looked like.

Liu Yiqiu nodded and said, "It's all ready."

The concubine also secretly took Xiaojun and watched the rehearsal twice, and there will definitely be no mistakes. ”

Zhou Rui said indifferently: "Xiaojun is the prince of the Han and Tang Empires, you can be casual, you don't need to look at it."

Tomorrow's big military parade, I also want Xiao Jun to see with his own eyes what the army of my Han and Tang Empires looks like! ”

The crown prince Zhou Jun finished practicing a set of knife techniques, and walked in front of Zhou Rui and Liu Yiqiu without blushing or panting, "Father, mother, and son-in-law have finished practicing." ”

Zhou Rui nodded slightly and said, "The practice is good, and the subtleties are also handled very well."

When you have time, let a few of your masters pick a few good players from the forbidden army and accompany you to practice actual combat.

Don't practice martial arts today, get up early tomorrow and have breakfast with your father and mother. ”

Early the next morning, after Zhou Rui, Liu Yiqiu, and Zhou Jun finished breakfast, they climbed the gatehouse of the main gate of the palace under the escort of the forbidden army.

At this time, hundreds of military and political ministers of the Han and Tang Empires had gathered here on the gatehouse, and when they saw the emperor, empress and crown prince coming up, these military and political ministers hurriedly saluted the three of them.

Zhou Xiaorong, commander-in-chief of the Royal Army of the Han and Tang Empires, immediately said to Zhou Rui: "Your Majesty, according to the agreed time, there is still half an hour left, and the military parade will begin." ”

Zhou Rui said: "Don't worry, just start at the agreed time." ”

Then Zhou Rui said to Liu Yiqiu and Zhou Jun: "We are standing at the railing, and the parade will not start until 8 o'clock in the morning. ”

When Zhou Rui, who was dressed in military uniform, took Liu Yiqiu and Zhou Jun to stand in front of the railing of the gatehouse, on the square in front of the main gate of the palace, the hundreds of thousands of people gathered suddenly boiled.

"The Emperor is out! Look! The emperor is out! ”

"Oops! It's really the emperor, just above the city gate tower! ”

"It's the emperor! Long live the Emperor! ”

Soon, the shout of "Long live the emperor" seemed to break through the sky.

The crown prince Zhou Jun, who experienced such a scene for the first time, couldn't help but shout excitedly.

Liu Yiqiu said to Zhou Jun with a smile at this time: "It took your father more than ten years to reintegrate a fragmented Han and Tang Empire, and also expanded the territory and population of the Han and Tang Empire several times.

The common people of the Han and Tang Empires have already deified your father, which is also where your father's confidence lies in not being afraid of the military alliance of the Nine Kingdoms.

As long as your father gives an order, you can even raise an army with a size of hundreds of millions in a few months. ”

Zhou Rui then turned his head and said, "Xiaojun, merit is only one aspect.

As the monarch of a country, the most important thing is to let the people live and work in peace and contentment, have food to eat, and have clothes to wear.

As long as you can do that, you can also get the support of the people.

And as long as the people of my Han and Tang Empire support you, then you and the Han and Tang Empire don't need to be afraid of any enemies! ”

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Zhou Xiaorong, commander-in-chief of the Royal Army of the Han and Tang Empires, announced into the microphone on the tower of the city gate: "The National Day parade to celebrate the Han and Tang Empires starts now!" ”

As the military parade began, the national flag guard, composed of 303 officers and soldiers of the navy, land and air force in the distance, first walked towards the gate tower of the imperial palace.

The national flag of the Han and Tang Empires was redesigned by Zhou Rui himself after he ascended the throne.

The flag is red and embroidered with a golden four-clawed golden dragon.

You must know that the queue training of the Han and Tang armies is almost copied from the Huaxia army in another time and space.

When the national flag guards kicked forward and began to pass through the gate tower of the palace, the ministers of several countries sitting in the observation area under the gate tower couldn't help but frown.

That's too neat too! It's like a mold carved out!

After the national flag escort passed, it was an air force team composed of 402 air force pilots, and the two leading officers at the front were both six-star ace pilots of the Royal Air Force of the Han and Tang Empires, representing that the two of them shot down more than 60 enemy planes.

At present, among the ace pilots of the Royal Air Force of the Han and Tang Empires, the highest level is six stars.

After the Air Force squadron, there was a navy squadron composed of 402 naval carrier-based aircraft pilots, and the two officers at the front were both four-star ace pilots, representing that the two of them shot down more than 40 enemy planes.

The Navy Squadron was followed by a Navy Squadron of 402 Navy officers and men.

The next 5th team to the 19th team are the 15 military teams of the Royal Army of the Han and Tang Empires, and each military region team is also 402 people.

The 20th platoon, consisting of 402 reservists, was the last platoon of foot personnel.

The next 20 platoons are all weapons and equipment platoons composed of various tanks, armored vehicles and artillery.

After a full 40 squares walked over, today's parade is still not over.

This was followed by 10 air echelons, consisting of fighters of the Air Force and carrier-based aircraft of the Navy.

Among the 10 air echelons, the last air echelon in the finale was made up of 24 MiG-15 jet fighters.

And when the loudspeaker in the square gave a general introduction to the performance of the MiG-15 jet fighter, the faces of the ministers of several countries sitting in the observation area downstairs of the city gate all became ugly.
