Chapter 237 (2) The Great Military Parade 5
In addition, since the medical soldiers, the soldiers of the Xingtian Army are much bolder, and they are no longer so afraid of battle when they are about to fight, anyway, as long as they are not seriously injured on the spot or hang up directly, they can get timely treatment for general minor injuries, and the threat of death is much smaller, so they also dare to fight with the enemy, and they are quite brave in battle, so don't look at their small number, but they play a vital role in boosting the morale of the Xingtian Army.
It's a pity that Lu Rongxuan is a little older now, and he is no longer acting with the army at this time, and he was not able to come to participate in this military parade this time, Xiao Tianjian ordered him to take some high-paid surgical saints recruited in Luoyang the year before last to set up a military medical department, which is actually similar to a military medical college, specializing in training medical soldiers for the Xingtian Army in batches, and is also responsible for studying various trauma drugs and treatment methods.
Therefore, under Xiao Tianjian's special permission, each army also dispatched a group of medical soldiers to participate in the parade, but because there are still very few medical soldiers at the moment, most of them can't get out at all, so in the end, only 50 medical soldiers were selected from each army to come to the parade, and they also became the smallest phalanx in this parade.
Just when everyone thought that the parade was about to end, from the back of the procession came another phalanx on foot, and what made up this phalanx was even more surprising that the people who formed this phalanx were all a group of fourteen or fifteen years old, also numbering five hundred, each wearing a new Wehrmacht uniform, and the helmets on their heads did not have feathers to indicate their rank, and each of them carried a flintlock pistol with a bayonet that was about the same height as them.
These teenagers don't look young, but the neatness of the marching procession is no worse than any of the phalanxes in front, and even their phalanx walks better, each teenager has a childish face, but their eyes are very firm, and they march in the ranks without squinting at the beat of the drum.
"What are these teenagers doing? Could it be that the Heavenly Army of Punishment has also formed a special child army? It's a shame to let them go into battle now! Many people have such a question in their minds, and they feel that Xiao Tianjian seems a little unkind to do this.
However, the literate people immediately solved everyone's doubts, because the big flag in the hands of the standard-bearer in front of the last phalanx had three words written on it: "Lecture on Wutang", and those who knew the inside story immediately said: "Don't underestimate these boys!" These boys are all cadets from the martial arts halls of the Xingtian Army! Most of them are orphans taken in by the Xingtian Army in various places, and some of them are the sons of military generals, and the emperor is very kind to them now, not only taking care of their food, clothing, housing and transportation, but also employing scholars and military attaches to teach them! After the age of sixteen, these boys will ...... How so? Let the old man think about it, this is a new word invented by the emperor, right! It's graduation! They will be able to graduate from the lecture hall as soon as they reach the age of sixteen! Then he was sent to the armies as officers! Remember, it's for officials, not for big soldiers! The best people in their middle school may become generals when they come out, and the worst ones are also a captain in the army, and some top-notch boys can even become deputy sentry generals (deputy company commanders)! In the future, it can be said that he will have a bright future in the army!
Did you see that? General Liu, one of the three generals who rode past at the front, was one of these boys back then, and they all regarded the emperor as their father, and they were loyal to our emperor. The old man can see it, this Ming is completely finished! That's right! It is said that the current emperor doesn't look down on the emperor in the north at all! After he dominates the world one day, he is determined to destroy the Jiannu of Liaodong, do you know that at the end of the eleventh year of Chongzhen last time, our emperor led troops to the land of Jingfu, and fought a few battles with the Tartar army. Gee! Our emperor's soldiers and horses are amazing! We're going to have a good life in the future! Don't worry about fighting and killing anymore! Hurry up! Our emperor should hurry up and calm the world! Then we'll have a better time! A middle-aged and older man who seemed to be very expert stood in the crowd and explained the origin of this phalanx of teenagers to the people around him, while sighing in the crowd.
After listening to it, the ordinary people are also full of emotion, no one wants to live this kind of life of fighting and killing, everyone knows that the war is going to die, and in the end it is the ordinary people who are unlucky, now Xiao Tianjian has ascended the throne and called the emperor, and established this great China, and then look at the majesty of the Xingtian Army, ordinary people all feel a lot more down-to-earth, who is the emperor They don't really care, what they care about most is when they can live a down-to-earth life, who can let them live a down-to-earth life, they will be with whom, Now they can't count on the Ming Dynasty, and they can only hope that Xiao Tianjian, the founding emperor of Great China, can bring them a stable life.
Therefore, this military parade has undoubtedly played a very big role in stabilizing the people's hearts and subduing the people's hearts, and anyone who has seen or heard of the super force displayed by this Xingtian Army military parade is difficult to raise the idea of becoming an enemy with Xiao Tianjian again, even if they may be the victims of this change, some people only acquiesce to this fact, money, things outside the body, as long as they keep their lives, they will be content!
The military uniform of the last phalanx is eye-catching, because the color of the military uniform of this phalanx is very different from that of all the generals in front, the Xingtian Army has always been dominated by dark black and blue military uniforms, but the generals of this phalanx are wearing a white military uniform with the same style as other military uniforms, which looks very eye-catching and good-looking, and they are all without armor, and the iron helmets on their heads are also painted white, and there are no feathers on the iron helmets, but the shoulders and sleeves are embroidered with stripes of various colors, which seem to represent their military rank, And all of them carried a flintlock spear.
So some people were even more surprised, and they all pointed to the last phalanx and discussed, and for a while they couldn't guess the identity of this team, so some people asked the soldiers and generals who maintained order on the side of the road to inquire.
But when someone asked about the identity of this team, these generals all showed a little disdain, pouting and saying, "What else can it do?" They are all water masters! Today, the saint asked them to distinguish their military uniforms from us, let them wear white clothes, these guys didn't appreciate it at first, saying that wearing white military uniforms was unlucky, like wearing filial piety clothes, but the saints wanted them to wear them, and then after the military uniforms were issued, these guys liked it very much, and they wore it everywhere all day long! What's there to see! ”
It turned out that this last phalanx, in fact, is the water army of the Xingtian Army, the first time the Xingtian Army set up a water army, or on the edge of the Yellow River in Yuanqu County, when Xiao Tianjian ordered the establishment of a water battalion, the main purpose is to control that section of the Yellow River, the scale was very small, and later Xiao Tianjian led the troops south to Huguang, because of the use of the dense waterways in Huguang, the first batch of soldiers of the Yellow River water battalion such as Yang Kunshan were transferred to Huguang, and began to build the Yangtze River water camp in the Yangtze River, Hanshui and other places, and the scale expanded very rapidly. At present, the Xingtian Army has become an equally important force in the army, and has made a lot of contributions in the operations of Jingluhuguang, Jiangxi, Nanzhili and other places, it can be said that this attack on Nanzhili, the naval army has ensured the supply of food and straw materials for a large number of Xingtian army generals, and at the same time, it has also cleared the officers and soldiers on the Yangtze River in the Nanzhili area, which can be said to be indispensable.
It's a pity that Yang Kunshan, one of the founders of the Xingtian Army Naval Army, was unfortunately killed in the Ezhou Yangtze River Water Battle some time ago, and could not witness the day of the founding of Great China, but Xiao Tianjian did not despise the naval army, and personally ordered the naval army to form a phalanx to participate in the parade during this military parade, but at the beginning, the naval army was not very satisfied with the clothing, and felt that it was unlucky to let them wear white clothes, and began to resist a little, but Xiao Tianjian is the boss, he has the final say, and he asked the naval army to wear white shirts in the future. No one could say no, so after the military uniforms customized for them were issued, the navy army could only change its clothes.
But I didn't think that after the navy changed into a white military uniform, I actually found that this white military uniform looked very energetic after wearing it, so I immediately dispelled the resistance.
There seems to be innate resistance between the military branches, and the infantry cavalry are a little unaccustomed to seeing the navy such a stinky fart, and they think that fighting the world is more of their infantry business, and the navy is far less than their contribution, so the infantry generals more or less look down on the navy.
And the leader of today's naval array is the current commander of the naval army Liu Jiang, this guy has already washed away the atmosphere of the rivers and lakes on his body, and has transformed into a standard soldier, walking in front of the team with the banner of the navy on his chest, his chin is almost raised to the sky, and the generals of the navy behind him also look more energetic one by one, carrying the flint hair spear and striding through the Yaowu Gate, and accepting the review of the new emperor Xiao Tianjian and many civil and military officials above the Yaowu Gate.
It was not until after the passage of the naval army phalanx that the parade was completely over, but the gendarmerie unit, a very special branch of the Xingtian Army, was not formed to participate in the parade because of the lack of manpower this time, and it shared the responsibilities of maintaining the parade site and protecting the safety of the palace, so it did not form a phalanx to participate in the parade, which made the gendarmes feel a little regretful.
However, the end of the parade does not mean that the parade has completely ended, after passing through the Yaowu Gate, after walking around the street outside the Yaowu Gate, they bypassed the palace and returned to the newly opened school field in front of the Yaowu Gate, and the teams were lined up on the school field.
