Chapter 366: The Great Military Parade
Next, the matter of the government soldiers was discussed in the court meeting. Dust? Margin? √ ← Network
In the end, it was decided to reduce the size of the government army to half, and the government army adopted a recruitment system, and the military salary was changed to full-time soldiers.
After that, there was nothing special to discuss in the court, anyway, all the focus was on how to recuperate, and the court even ordered that all schools across the country should be on farming holidays, and all students should go to the fields to plough the fields, and then return to the school after the spring ploughing overnight.
For example, the imperial court also decided to introduce larger-scale land loans, as well as control over the price of rice, and so on.
The court meeting lasted until noon.
Yang Mu felt bored sitting on the dragon chair, and the standing officials were even more so, and there were some older officials who couldn't support it halfway, so Yang Mu asked people to move some chairs for the officials who were not in good health to sit down temporarily.
This move moved the courtiers again.
Eventually, the court meeting ended in a little farce.
What farce?
Then I have to say that the little prince Yang Jun, after being honest for a while, this little guy couldn't bear to be playful, and couldn't stay in the palace at all, at first climbed to the edge of Yang Mulong's chair to hug, and then ran around next to him, making the atmosphere in the entire court very embarrassing.
The courtiers and attendants didn't dare to stop Yang Jun's noise, and Yang Mu couldn't do anything.
In other words, Xiao Yangjun is not afraid of the sky and the earth at present, just listen to the words of Concubine Nuo and the queen, and the rest of the people are not afraid even Miaoxi.
The reason is because he saw that Miaoxi was also punished by the queen, so in his young heart, he had no prestige.
Knowing that Xiao Yang Jun was hungry, Yang Mu announced his retirement from the dynasty, and the rest of the affairs were discussed by themselves, and then handed over to the two prime ministers.
The reason why I say this is because this is the last court meeting before the alliance.
If all the negotiations go well, in the next half month, Cangguo will not hold another court meeting.
If it doesn't go well...... That can only be longer.
……
As soon as the emperor of the Jin Kingdom arrived, all the emperors of all countries arrived in Cangcheng.
For a time, all countries looked sideways.
Why?
The emperor of the Jin Kingdom, after arriving in Cangcheng, entered the palace of Cangguo as soon as possible.
Anyone can see what this means.
After all, the current emperor of the Jin State was originally just a king of Ning who was waiting for death, and it was the support of the Cangguo that allowed him to ascend to the throne of the emperor.
Of course, the diplomatic relations between countries cannot be emotional, but the fact that the emperor of the Jin State is close to the Cangguo State and will become an ally of the Cangguo in the future is basically certain.
Diplomatic relations are such a strange logic, obviously Cangguo is the country that contributed the most in this war of Jin, but it is the biggest benefactor of the new Jin emperor.
In today's Jin Kingdom, Zou Ji has nearly half of the military power, and the Emperor of Jin has replaced most of the old ministers in the court, so it can be said that in the Jin Kingdom, there is basically no anti-Cang voice.
If it weren't for the fear of Qin Kan and Hua Wenqi, I am afraid that at this time, the entire army of the Jin Kingdom would also start to be friendly with the Cang Kingdom.
Just when the emperors of the countries thought that the alliance would officially begin, Yang Mu made a very surprising move.
Cangguo, there is a military parade!
Military parades, the emperors of all countries are no strangers, it is nothing more than to inspect the army, as the lord of a country, the emperors of various countries are often experienced.
However, Cangguo's military parade this time is different.
First of all, those who participated in the parade this time included the current six major legions of Cangguo, that is to say, the six major legions must draw out some troops to form a parade team.
Secondly, this military parade was not the strength of Cangguo alone, but the honor guard brought by the countries was invited, and the focus was on the army of Chu and Yun.
Then, this military parade is no longer a one-man parade by the emperor of Cangguo, but an invitation to the emperors of all countries to climb the city wall to watch the ceremony, and all the people and envoys can watch from the periphery.
The obvious show off of military might!
This is the most intuitive feeling of the emperors of all countries, inviting everyone to parade together, and the intention of this can be understood by fools!
And most importantly, before the start of the negotiations on the alliance!
Yangmou!
The Emperor of Chu and the Emperor of Yun also knew what Yang Mu was thinking, but after careful consideration, it was a loss anyway, and it didn't matter if he sent troops to participate, in a sense, the Three Kingdoms Alliance was still a whole.
So, on the day of February 19, a grand military parade outside Cangcheng began.
Early in the morning, Yang Mu, as the emperor of Cangguo, entertained the emperors of all countries in the palace of the palace.
The atmosphere was as calm as ever, but there was a sense of tension in the harmony, and the undercurrent was turbulent.
After all, there are some contradictions between the countries, especially at this time, the Jin Alliance and the Jin State are still in a state of war, about a dozen countries are still confronting each other, and the rest of the small countries are more or less because of the camp, or the borders of neighboring countries, and they are very unhappy.
But no matter what kind of conflict of interests these countries have with each other, as long as their emperor is in Cangguo, it is impossible to do anything, since ancient times, anyone who makes trouble in the alliance has no good end, and the name of righteousness is not just a matter of one sentence, and the Jin State is a lesson from the past.
In addition, if there is any accident between the emperors of any country in the land of Cangguo, this will greatly damage the face of Cangguo, not to mention that the emperors of all countries will jointly accuse, even Cangguo will never give up.
Therefore, the emperors of all countries have some verbal disputes at most, sarcastic and sarcastic of each other, and they have not done that insulting thing, such as the Emperor of Chu and the Emperor of Wu, they don't like each other, but they just take advantage of each other and say cruel words.
Halfway through the banquet, Wang Ying, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, came and reported: "Your Majesty, the elite of the armies outside the city are ready. ”
Yang Mu nodded, looked around at the emperors of the countries in the hall, and said with a smile: "Please also move and have a glimpse of the demeanor of our allied forces!" ”
"Very good."
"I also just want to see if your Cangguo army is as divine as rumored, and whether it really has four hands. Hahaha! ”
"Go, go, go!"
The emperors of all countries got up one after another, walked together in three or five, and then sat on the dragon chariot one after another, like a scenic outing, and walked outside the palace with great interest.
Yang Mu smiled secretly.
For this reason, he quietly prepared for more than a month, and after a while, he believed that this military parade in Cangguo would definitely make these emperors shocked one by one, and personally experience the strength of Cangguo's army!
Half an hour later, the emperors and envoys of various countries, together with Yang Mu, ascended to the north gate of Cangcheng.
"Bell—"
"Bell—"
"Bell—"
Three big bells rang, and the parade ceremony officially began.
