"Beat the drums!"

The old thirteen dragons walked to the forefront of the viewing platform, their eyes were sharp like knives and looked around at the people in the audience, and then raised the two small flags, one red and one green, in their hands, crossed them vigorously, and roared loudly.

"Knock Knock ......"

As soon as the old thirteen gave an order, dozens of drummers neatly arranged under the viewing platform immediately waved the drumsticks in their hands in unison, and the majestic and mighty drums burst out, rushing straight out of the clouds like thunder.

"Woo, woo, woo......"

As soon as the drums sounded, a penetrating horn sounded in the west, and then a puff of smoke and dust rolled up from behind the mountain, and soon an army with a very good appearance turned out from behind the mountain, first three infantry columns of twenty men in a platoon, followed by the cavalry column of the Chinese army, then the artillery unit, and finally three more infantry columns were broken, and a full twelve thousand men and horses moved in unison, and the earth trembled.

"Raise your gun, salute!"

The marching troops marched unhurriedly to the viewing platform, and one of the guerrilla generals who was in charge of shouting slogans at the front of the queue shouted loudly, and then saw that all the officers and men of the first party were saluting in unison.

"Mighty Master, bless me China! Mighty teacher, bless my China! ”

At the same time as the shoulder salute, the 1,000 soldiers of the first phalanx shouted in unison, the sound was like thunder, the momentum was high, and the aura of slaughter suddenly rose.

"Out of the sword, salute!"

After the three infantry phalanxes, the cavalry column of the Chinese army had arrived, but seeing Zhang Miao, who was in charge of command, gave an order, the three thousand elite cavalry all drew their sabers at their waists and pointed at the sky obliquely like a forest.

"God bless China, long live my emperor! God bless China, long live our emperor! ”

The slogan of the cavalry column is obviously different from that of the infantry, but the majestic spirit is exactly the same, the three thousand soldiers roared in unison, neat and uniform, not only the officials and people in the audience were in high spirits, but even the old man also looked at the head again and again, as for the Grand Duke Gagarin, he was already stunned like a chicken, a fat face was drenched in cold sweat, and his face was even more red and white. Regardless of the weapons and equipment of the Qing army marching over, this spirit alone was far stronger than the most elite Russian guards, and looking at the various light and heavy guns dragged by carriages in the rolling artillery column, Grand Duke Gagarin only felt that his chest was tight.

"Your Excellency Duke Gagarin, have I seen this army in the Qing Dynasty?"

Although Hongqing was also watching the military parade, most of his attention was focused on Grand Duke Gagarin, and when he saw that he had shown his timidity, he secretly laughed in his heart, but he didn't intend to let him breathe, so he asked with a smile.

"Ah, it's not bad, but the root of the army is combat, there are many good-looking troops, but not many can fight tough battles, Your Excellency King Renjun, what do you say?"

Although his heart was already shocked by the mighty momentum of the Qing army, Grand Duke Gagarin did not want to give in, and after listening to the paraphrase of the interpreter standing beside him, Grand Duke Gagarin's eyes immediately rolled wildly a few times, and he asked a-for-tat.

"Heh, Your Excellency Duke Gagarin, I have a saying in China: If you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, you are afraid of comparing the goods, and the combat power of our army will soon be appreciated by His Excellency the Duke."

Hearing that Grand Duke Gagarin was still there, Hongqing couldn't help but laugh and replied meaningfully.

"Aha, we'll have to wait and see."

Grand Duke Gagarin is obviously a duck, obviously it has been cooked, but his mouth is still very tough, and when he heard the paraphrase of the interpreter, he immediately snorted and put on a posture of disapproval.

"Huh."

Seeing that Grand Duke Gagarin was holding on there, Hongqing didn't bother to say more, smiled faintly, and said no more.

"Enlighten Emperor Ama, the armies are already in place, please Emperor Ama make it clear."

The military parade is just an appetizer for the military exercise, the eight phalanxes soon all passed through the viewing platform, and the formation was lined up in the east, and the whole army was in a murderous state.

"Well, I'm looking forward to the performance of my sons, so let's go as planned."

Counting it, this is the second time that the old man has tested the new army, and he can see that the new army in front of him is much stronger than the grass stage of the expedition to Dongying, and he is in a good mood, and the tone of his reply is full of ease and praise.

"Wow!"

Since the old man said so, the old thirteen didn't dare to slack off a little, hurriedly answered the promise loudly, straightened his waist, stood up straight, walked to the front of the viewing platform, waved the two small flags in his hand a few times, and two heralds ran to both sides of the viewing platform, one was to inform Tashan and Zhang Miao, and the other was to run to the Russian military formation lined up on the west side of the viewing platform.

"Soldiers, show your courage, tell those yellow-skinned monkeys to take a good look at the majesty of my Russian soldiers, and give Lao Tzu a good job, if anyone drags his feet, all military law will be carried out, do you understand, huh?"

As soon as the mighty momentum of the Great Fresh Army came out, the Russian officers and soldiers who were originally high-spirited couldn't help but have some doubts, and their morale was much lower. Major General Tolsky's eyes were red, but when he saw that he had drawn the command knife from his waist and waved it indiscriminately, his face roared with a hideous expression.

"Ulla, Ulla......"

The Russian officers and soldiers of this company are Lev? The most elite combat company under Major General Tolsky, who had participated in several fierce battles with Turkey, was also a brave man who had fought in a sea of corpses and blood.

"Very well, now by name, Ulotovsky, Zhukhovsky......"

Seeing that the morale of his officers and soldiers was rising in the roar, Lev? Major General Tolsky immediately came to the spirit and began to point out with great interest.

"See, those old hairy people are still not convinced, what's the matter, do you dare to fight?"

Lev? Major General Tolsky's shout was so loud that he naturally heard it in his ears from the tower hill across the viewing platform, and although he couldn't understand Russian, he also knew that Lev? Major General Tolsky was doing pre-war mobilization, and a sinister smile immediately appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he looked around at the ten shooters selected for the competition, and asked coldly.

"Fight! War! War! ”

The training of the new army has been extremely strict over the years, whether it is in the Fengtai camp or going to Dongying to take shifts, the training has never been relaxed, but several battles have not been able to get the opportunity to fight, and they have long been full of energy, just a catharsis is missing, and now, Lao Maozi is going to be sent to the door to be abused, and the shooters are eager to find some fun and play on Lao Maozi, and the voice of the response is full of excitement.

"Okay, give it to Lao Tzu, fuck it!"

Hearing the shooters roaring like this, Tashan was obviously extremely satisfied, and there was no nonsense, and with a wave of his hand, the order had already been given.

"Wow!"

Ten shooters answered the promise in unison, lined up in a column, and marched proudly onto the open ground with their guns in hand, and at the sound of the command, they had already turned and stood facing the west, all of them standing tall, and everyone was very popular!

"Give it to Lao Tzu, teach the yellow-skinned monkeys a lesson!"

Seeing that the Qing army has gone into battle, Lev? Not to be outdone, Major General Tolsky also waved his hand and shouted at the top of his voice.

"Ula, Ula, Ula!"

Ten selected Russian shooters also ran out of the formation with a shout in unison, quickly aligned with the Qing army array, separated by three zhang distance, each took out a flint, lit the ignition rope, and hurriedly prepared for the shooting, while the Qing army shooters did not move at all, and did not even have a flat end of the gun, allowing the Russian soldiers to perform there.

"On a hundred step targets, three shots per person, and the total score is used to decide the winner, do you understand?"

As soon as the shooters on both sides were in position, a guerrilla general of the Qing army led an interpreter to the firing line and shouted a reminder, which was then shouted again in Russian.

"Understood!"

"Understood!"

……

The rules for the shooting test were drawn up in advance, and they were divided into three target positions of 100 steps, 200 steps, and 300 steps, and each shooter fired three bullets, and the winner was determined by the total score.

"Ready, ready, go!"

With a wave of his hand, dozens of officers and men of the Qing army rushed into the field carrying targets, quickly measured them, set the target positions, and neatly lined up the 20 targets at a distance of 100 meters from the firing line.

"Bah, Bah, Bah......"

As soon as the order was issued, the gunfire on the Qing army's firing line immediately rang out, and the Russian army had just lit the lead on the arquebus, and before the guns in their hands rang out, the Qing army's shooters had already quickly loaded the second round of bullets, not to mention the accuracy of the shooting on both sides, the gap in weapons alone made the Russian officers and soldiers panic, and Grand Duke Gagarin was even more stimulated and gasped......
