Chapter 51: A Bloody Declaration

After compiling the "Infantry Drill Code", Li Mingyuan walked out of the tent, and at this time, a figure appeared on the flat ground in front of him,

When he got a little closer, Li Mingyuan recognized the person as a middle-level officer of the cavalry regiment.

"Son of the world, there is something to repay for your humble duties." Riding a horse galloping very fast, Fang Minghong entered the barracks and immediately dismounted.

"Why don't you train on the grassland, why do you come to me?" Li Mingyuan smiled.

"The brothers have been training for more than 20 days, and they are a little tired, and they want to take two days off with their son."

"The whole army just had a vacation three days ago, why are you tired so quickly?"

"The prince of the world is wise, and he will not hide it from you, and he wants to take his brothers to a long-distance drill, and by the way, see if he can catch a few eagles."

The long-distance drill was a training plan set by Li Mingyuan, and Fang Minghong used the name of the drill to lead his subordinates to hunt eagles, but he also said it in the past.

"Hehe, Kurosawa, who wanted me last time, didn't succeed, so I'm going to catch one myself this time." Li Mingyuan smiled and said Fang Minghong's true purpose.

"It's not wrong to catch the eagle and drill it, and I hope that the prince will allow it." Fang Minghong said.

"The troop drill was originally planned to be held in two days, and since you proposed it in advance, then the troop drill should be carried out early."

"Xie Shizi is complete."

"Don't be too happy, this drill is planned, it's not as simple as the cavalry breaking through five or six hundred miles, if you want to catch eagles, you have to wait for a while." Li Mingyuan poured cold water.

"It doesn't matter if you wait a few more days, as long as the prince promises us to hunt falcons."

Military training is not child's play, Fang Minghong was not dissatisfied because of the delay, and immediately replied. ……

The advent of hot weapons did not mean that cavalry was completely eliminated, in fact, cavalry still played an important role in warfare until World War II. Therefore, for the training of cavalry, Li Mingyuan made arrangements at the beginning.

The next morning, all the officers and men of the Yulin Praetorian Guard Brigade were assembled and prepared for a 600-mile long-distance raid drill.

Outside the camp gate, Li Mingyuan rode a high-headed war horse and walked in front of the three thousand soldiers of the Praetorian Guard Brigade.

After the capture of 7,000 military horses, there was no longer a shortage of war horses in the Chinese Independence Army, and Li Mingyuan provided each officer at and above the battalion level with a military horse, and ordered all officers at and above the battalion level to learn to ride horses.

Officers are the core of an army, and the Chinese Independence Army has to travel thousands of kilometers to the south of Brazil.

In the process of transferring, a commander who can ride a horse has an advantage over an officer who can not cavalry, whether it is to move troops quickly or to save his life in the face of enemy attacks. That's why Li Mingyuan issued this order.

Standing in front of Li Mingyuan were the first, second, and third regiments of the Yulin Praetorian Guard Brigade, and among the three cavalry regiments, the Xiaocai Regiment had the most veterans, and among the 1,000 people, 500 were soldiers of the original cavalry regiment, and the remaining 500 were also composed of veterans drawn from various units.

The Xiaocai Regiment, with one person and two horses, is the main assault force of the Yulin Praetorian Guard Brigade, and is personally commanded by Li Dawei as the head of the regiment.

Li Dawei, as the commander of the Yulin Praetorian Guard, did not stand beside Li Mingyuan to inspect the troops, but stood in front of the Xiaocai Regiment as the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Regiment, holding a saber in his hand, and accepted Li Mingyuan's test.

"Xiao Cavalry Regiment, Flying Cavalry Regiment, Cloud Cavalry Regiment." Li Mingyuan rode a high-headed horse and walked in front of the three armies in turn.

"Do you know why I gave you that name? Li Dawei, as the head of the Xiao Cavalry Regiment, you answer first. ”

"Report to the world, ride fearlessly, and kill strong enemies bravely."

"Brave and fearless, brave to kill strong enemies." After Li Dawei's shout, the soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Regiment immediately burst out with a deafening shout.

Li Mingyuan nodded lightly, his eyes turned to the Flying Cavalry Regiment, and Feng Changqing, the leader of the Flying Cavalry Regiment, understood and immediately shouted the slogan of the Flying Cavalry Regiment,

After the three units shouted the slogan of their unit in turn, Li Mingyuan rode back to the center of the army and said with a solemn face, "Killing the enemy and making meritorious contributions, the slogan is good," "But this is not the real reason why I named the unit. ”

Li Li Mingyuan's tone was gentle, as if he was telling a story that had nothing to do with him.

"Xiao cavalry, flying cavalry, cloud cavalry are all famous armies of the Han and Tang Dynasties, think that at the beginning, the Han army named these names chased the Xiongnu in the north, Baiyue in Nanping, Qianghu in Xiping, and Turkic in Dongzhen.

The prestige is great, and the four Yi are subservient, and their military horns are dyed of iron and blood.

What now? China fell, the Chinese clothes did not exist, the people were numb and ignorant, and my generation was reduced to pigs and sold in a foreign land. ”

Li Mingyuan's voice was low and sad, and the soldiers of the cavalry brigade in front of him were silent and solemn, and their eyes were full of unwillingness to be sad.

"The Heavenly Rebellion, the growth of hair and modification, the rotten Confucian literati denounced it as long hair,

Juntian believed in religion, which his generation called a cult.

Prosperous Huaxia, regard us as rebellious and evil people,

Reduced to a foreign land, living and living, foreigners and natives regard us as pigs and dogs. Li Mingyuan said that when he was emotional, a tear couldn't help but flow from the corner of his eye.

"The smoke and dust of the Han family are in the northeast, the Han generals quit their families and broke the thieves, and the low chant of the martyrs of the Han and Tang dynasties is still vaguely in the ears, but their descendants have been reduced to pig and dog slaves, homeless dogs."

Li Mingyuan's voice was raised, and he said excitedly, "Brothers, the descendants of Han and Tang Jian'er, tell me, are you willing to be humble and be a pig and dog, and are you willing to be cowardly and tolerant as a slave?" ”

The silent soldier of "no" is like a volcano bursting out, suddenly erupting into a roar that penetrates the sky.

"Those who respect themselves must respect them, and those who despise themselves must be despised by them. A person's self-esteem is earned by oneself, and a nation's self-esteem is realized by the sword and sword in one's hand.

Why did the Yellow Earth sink? It is because she has lost her backbone that a spineless nation with a broken backbone will be ruled by less than a million barbarians for two hundred years. A nation that has revenge and does not take revenge and regards its own people as nothing, is a nation without hope.

The barbarians rebelled and burned the people of the Han family, but the government of the Han family was magnanimous, could it be that the lives of the people of the Han family were so cheap? Is it the government's sentence of repaying grievances with virtue that can gently resolve the purchase and sale? Is such a country what you want? ”

"Nope."

"Yes, we don't want such a country, so we launched an uprising to overthrow the Manchu dynasty, but we failed and were sold to South America as pigs, should we give up?" Li Mingyuan's voice was high, and he said loudly, "No, as long as I still have a breath, I will not give up hope, as long as I can still hold the sword, I will charge forward."

There is no fairness in the country, and the great powers will not sympathize with the weak, so we must use the sword and sword in our hands to seize the land of our existence, rebuild the strong country of the Han family, and awaken the soul of the Yan and Huang nations. ”

"I am willing to be a sword in the hands of the prince and rebuild the empire of the strong man." Li Mingyuan's subdued speech awakened the blood in the hearts of the officers and men of the cavalry brigade, and all the soldiers shouted to express the hidden fanaticism in their hearts.

Li Mingyuan stopped the fanatical soldiers and said, "The country we want to establish is a country for all Chinese, a country that belongs to the Chinese who have shed blood for him, in this country, you are all the masters of the country, there will be no landlords to collect taxes from you, there will be no harsh officials to torture you, everything belongs to you." ”

"Long live" Listening to the picture described by Li Mingyuan, the soldiers shouted like a tsunami.
