The 300,000 forbidden troops and soldiers of the north and south ya, who gathered in Hanjing, formed a military formation outside the Yongding Gate at the south gate of the outer city. The six armies of the Northern Ya Forbidden Army plus the two fleets of the Naval Division. and the soldiers of the prefectures under the twelve guards of the Southern Ya, as well as the militia in the army of King Qin.

The forbidden army with red and black borders, the government soldiers with red robes and blue edges, and the sailors wearing red robes with white edges, as well as the militiamen wearing blue robes directly.

The Yongding Gate is wide open, and the city gates of the three city gate holes are wide open today, leading directly to the wide Vermilion Bird Heavenly Street. On both sides of the sixteen-mile Suzaku Long Street, it was crowded with people who came to watch.

A thousand Xuanjia cavalry lined up in a long formation.

Today, they all changed into black-colored full-body plate armor, and the black-colored plate armor emitted a faint light, and the war horses they sat down on were all black horses, and the war horses were also wearing black iron armor.

Iron men and iron horses are like steel cavalry cast from molten steel.

The trumpets sounded, the war drums sounded, and the Xuanjia cavalry suddenly moved.

They trotted forward slowly, lined up in a neat line, and the iron hooves struck on the stone slabs of the Heavenly Street with a soft and crisp sound, and when they came together, they thundered.

It was the first time that the people on both sides of the Heavenly Street had seen such a majestic cavalry, just like heavenly soldiers.

Li Chao was wearing the golden armor of the Imperial Palace, carrying a jade sword at his waist, riding a golden sweaty and bloody horse, standing proudly in the center of the wide heavenly street. The wind lifted his scarlet cloak and brushed his face, looking at the thousand armored cavalry slowly walking towards him, he couldn't help but marvel.

With the power of the Tang Dynasty, now it is only barely enough to assemble such a thousand iron horses with full-body plate armor. A thousand armored horses, Xuanjia horses, iron horses, purely money piled up. But the effect is really good, this thousand horses are coming, which makes people feel extremely heroic, just look at the expressions on the faces of the chiefs of those Fanguo tribes, they are completely shocked.

The first general of the cavalry urged the horse to step forward quickly, and stopped in front of Li Chao.

"Zhang Gongjin, the general of the Zuo Shence Army, led the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry to the three armies to review the King of Yue, and the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry phalanx has been prepared, please review!"

The purpose of the three-military school review is to inspire the hearts of the people after the Hanjing Rebellion, and also to deter the barbarians from all directions and show the national strength of the Tang Dynasty. Such an important military parade would not have been the turn of Li Chao, a scholar order, to be the inspection envoy of the three armed services.

The most suitable candidate is, of course, the privy envoy or the secretary of the military department.

However, Li Shimin appointed Li Chao, the former king of the world, to be the generalissimo of the rebel soldiers and horses to be the review envoy of the three armies.

Li Chao raised his hand and returned a military salute, and his arm tapped the breastplate, "Begin!" ”

Under the leadership of Zhang Gongjin, Li Chao and the privy envoys Qu Tutong, Qin Qiong, Li Ji, Li Jing, the secretary of the military department, and the five metropolitan governors rode over together, first reviewed the lineup of the Xuanjia cavalry, and then the parade officially began, and the Xuanjia iron cavalry phalanx was the first to take the lead.

With a neat lineup, they rode all the way to the Imperial City Suzaku Gate, and were watched by the people on both sides of the Heavenly Street, and then arrived at the Suzaku Gate, where they were inspected by the emperor, empress, and crown princes, as well as the important ministers of Zaifu.

The Xuanjia Iron Cavalry of the Shence Army, the hoplites of the Yulin Army, the Modao warriors, the archers and crossbowmen of the Warriors, and the musketeers and three-eyed cavalry of the Shenji Army passed by one after another.

In the opinion of Li Chao, the inspection envoy of the three armed services, the phalanx of these soldiers is actually only average, and they have not been able to achieve the awesome degree that can be connected from all angles. But in the eyes of the onlookers, this neat phalanx is already very intimidating.

Flags fluttering, spears like a forest.

The neat and bright red robe, the loud roar, and the powerful steps make people's blood boil when they see it.

To the sound of the marching band's drums, onlookers felt as if they were part of the army.

For today's review, the soldiers have specially changed into new military uniforms, even the militiamen, each of them has a set of military uniforms, the flags are also new, and the armor and weapons are shiny.

Under the deliberate construction, a mighty division appeared.

Even the sailors drove their boats into the city from the sailors and cruised through the canals in the city.

"After the review, most of the soldiers will be disarmed and returned to the field." On the jujube red war horse, Sun Wuji, the head of Shangshu Zuo Shot and Tongping Zhang, also put on armor today, and a set of silver half-body armor was worn on his body, which also made him mighty.

Wearing armor and a sword, the eldest grandson Wuji is very handsome as a Confucian general.

"It is impossible for the Beijing division to support so many troops, and the army is gathered in the capital, which is not only difficult to support, but also makes the place empty." Li Chao said. Later, in the Song Dynasty, he liked to build strong cadres and weak branches, and made a huge forbidden army system, but most of them were concentrated in the Gyeonggi area.

The Gyeonggi garrison of the Tang Dynasty is composed of government soldiers and forbidden troops, the forbidden army is a standing army, with six armies and two naval divisions, but the forbidden army is not only stationed in the capital, but must be rotated to the frontier garrison to exercise combat effectiveness. In peacetime, there are about 30,000 people in the forbidden army in Beijing, and about 30,000 government soldiers will take turns to defend in Beijing, so the standing strength in Beijing is about 60,000, half of the northern Ya forbidden army and half of the southern Yafu soldiers.

It was divided into the north and south of the government, but it was controlled by the Privy Council and the Ministry of War, and there were many checks and balances to ensure that these armed forces stationed in Beijing could always be in the hands of the Son of Heaven.

After this Hanjing Rebellion, the military circles of the Tang Dynasty were also carrying out a severe purge from top to bottom. A large number of officers were dismissed, and many of the forbidden and government soldiers were also removed. From this time, a large number of militiamen were by-selected from the militia of the Qinwang Army to enter the northern and southern armies.

"I heard that the crown prince Feng Wenyuan is the queen of Zhaojun, you have resigned a few times. Later, His Majesty named you the king of Yue, and Wen Yuan was even more resigned, and after hearing about it, he was deeply admired. The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said to Li Chao, "At the beginning of my Tang Zhenguan, the system has been set, and a different surname is not allowed to be crowned king." Although Wen Yuan has entered the clan family, such as the old general Qu Tutong and General Su Dingfang, they are all real courtiers with different surnames. ”

"As courtiers, we have our part. Even if the emperor and the crown prince reward it, we don't accept it if it doesn't conform to the system. The eldest grandson Wuji looked at Li Chao as he spoke.

Li Chao smiled lightly.

"I understand Wei Guogong's words, and that's exactly what I mean. Don't worry, even if Your Majesty rewards me well, I will not accept this king's gift. ”

"Wen Yuan is listed as a member of the Tang Dynasty, and you are also surnamed Li, you are a royal person, and it is not against the system to be crowned king. It's just that the other seven kings are not suitable, right? ”

Li Chao said, "Although I have a small merit, it is not enough to be crowned a king." When I turn around, I'll look for the rest of them, and we'll join us in bidding for the king's reward. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji smiled slightly.
