Chapter 147 The First Military Parade II
Accompanied by Liang Hongyu, Han Wang greeted and inspected the twelve phalanx subordinates, and returned to the rostrum after saying goodbye to Liang Hongyu. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Next, he will be at the front of the rostrum to deliver a speech for this military parade, and Han Wang's words are completely off-script impromptu speeches.
A month ago, Erlongzhai thieves came to Zhuangzi to rob property, how many people were there? Twenty. Then I caught the Flying Tigers, and then attracted a large number of thieves to come and retaliate. There are only more than 60 people in Zhuangzi Shangdingkou, but fortunately, with the help of the surrounding villages, there are finally 80 people. We use clubs without knives and guns, and wooden signs and basins without shields.
There were more than a hundred and fifty bandits with swords, guns and armor, and they didn't pay attention to us at all. But we persevered, did not admit defeat, did not run away, and finally beat the bandits away. For the first time, the villagers have the dignity of being human beings. For the sake of this dignity of being human, thirty-six warriors gave their lives! They were originally unknown, but today, they are heroes and immortal!
Later, in order to fight against the bandits, we formed the Liulian Volunteers, with a hundred people, which was the predecessor of the Liulian Battalion. We took over the task of searching and rescuing friendly troops, Xiaozhuanghe, two hundred Liao cavalry, and we and the friendly army totaled only more than 30 people. This time we still held on, defeated the Khitans and rescued the friendly forces.
On the way back, the enemy bullied us and sent a thousand Han cavalry to chase and kill. In Doumi Village, we gathered 180 people and surrounded the 400 pioneers of the Han army in one fell swoop, and the rear team of the Han army never dared to take a step beyond the Lei Chi. Now, there are still many brothers in the winning streak, who came over anyway from the vanguard of the Han army, thank you for laying down your arms and making the most correct choice at that time.
Later, we were ordered to cooperate with friendly forces to seize Xiongzhou and Baozhou, even if we paid heavy sacrifices, we fortunately did not fail in our mission. Along the way, we waded through thorns and mud, and finally ushered in flowers and glory. The emperor's grace was mighty, the officials carried it, and the friendly troops helped more, and the winning army finally became an army of its own. It can be said that without the 36 warriors, there would be no 6 joint camps, and there would be no today's winning streak!
This morning, my brother kindly asked me, "This flower is all over the ground, and the festive color is too heavy, I'm afraid it is not solemn and serious enough?" "Yes, my brother naturally has a point. But here Han Wang has a little explanation. Although our hearts are heavy, the heroic deeds of the martyrs are exciting and radiant, and their spirit will always inspire future generations to forge ahead!
Warriors and soldiers, who defend the country and protect the people with their lives, are the most amiable and lovely people. We use the most beautiful flowers and the most sincere thoughts to commemorate the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country and the people, and they can live forever in our hearts!
So, today, it's not a sad day, it's not a day of crying. It is to commemorate and learn from the martyrs' fearless spirit of sacrifice, courage and responsibility to dare to fight. We should turn our grief into strength and do our part with all our strength. The students studied hard, the farmers fetched more grain, the women spun and weaved more cloth, the officials were diligent and loved the people, and the soldiers trained hard.
Let's work together to make the Great Song stronger and more prosperous, and make the enemy tremble with fear! The greatest advantage of a strong army is that it does not have to fight, and if someone tries to provoke in vain, we have the ability to crush their plots.
The Heroic Spirit is not far away, and the mountains testify!
I, Han Wang, swear, where there is an enemy, we will go, and where there is the most danger, let us go!
The following soldiers responded like thunder, "Where there is an enemy, we will go there, where there is the most danger, let us go!" ”
After Liang Hongyu and the others cheered, they reported to Han Wang, "Commander-in-chief, the parade of troops has been prepared, please instruct!" ”
Han Wang waved his hand, "The column can begin!" ”
The band under the rostrum began to play, blowing and beating, gongs and drums were noisy, and the simplified version of the entrance march began to sound.
The first to come were monks and Taoists such as He Banxian, who operated the Dharma while walking, praying for blessings and prayers to the heavens. Han looked at the prayer professionals who walked in front of the rostrum and saluted the standard military salute.
One phalanx after another slowly entered, and the first one was the heavy cavalry phalanx led by Han Shizhong. The fat and strong tall horse, even the people and horses are all covered with steel armor, and the knight holds a horse lance of one color and two feet, murderous and majestic. The production of horse lance is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and Han Wang finally managed to gather fifty-one horse lance, which can be described as bankrupt.
This heavy cavalry usually feels a little bloated, but when it comes to real battles, it is the best means of rushing into battle, and there is no way to take heavy cavalry, foot soldiers, and bows and crossbows! The armor was too thick for the swords and arrows to penetrate at all, and the siege could not be carried out until the heavy cavalry was exhausted.
When passing by the rostrum, Han Shizhong gave an order, "Salute!" All the knights saluted Han Wang and the guests on the rostrum, and held their horses high, "Heavy riding always wins!" This voice is full of confidence and is particularly loud. All the staff on the rostrum stood up and waved and shouted for such a mighty heavy cavalry soldier!
The second is the energetic Xu Qing and his light cavalry phalanx, with exquisite armor, long knives, bows and crossbows, all available. The light cavalry pays attention to agility, speed, and accurate attack, and interspersing and outflanking are their forte.
Even against the Heavy Rider, it can use speed and projectile tactics to drag down the Heavy Rider. At that time, the Mongols relied on light horses and fast cavalry to sweep across the Eurasian continent. Xu Qing also commanded everyone to pay attention to the salute, and the light cavalry phalanx unsheathed the long sword, "The light cavalry is the first!" ”
The third is the instrument phalanx, which benefited from the family heirloom of the Zhou father and son, and it was hard to create a large, four, and five trebuchets for Han Wang. According to tests, large trebuchets can be thrown 600 paces away, and small trebuchets can also be thrown 450 paces, which means that the winning streak has the ability to attack the city head-on.
This tall and big device is the most eye-catching, and the people point their fingers, and the voices of admiration for this giant are endless. The phalanx of instruments also played its own slogan, "Apparatus takes the city".
The fourth to appear was the phalanx of the women's gendarmerie, a group of carefully selected, dignified and delicate female gendarmes riding horses and walking in full costume. Inspired by the National Day military parade in later generations, Han Wang boldly adopted a bright and bright style of red and white, with a red beret, a white corset skirt, a red leather armor, sheepskin boots, and fancy swords and cavalry crossbows.
Liang Hongyu led the female gendarmes to salute the rostrum, with a fancy thin sword on her chest, and a neat slogan "Gendarmerie Law Enforcement". In previous dynasties, it was not impossible for women to serve as soldiers, but it was relatively rare for female soldiers to become organized.
This phalanx of women's gendarmerie is like a rose with thorns, delicate with fortitude and gentleness with sacredness. In an era when women had no social status, Han Wang gave them the power to regulate male soldiers, which gave them a taste of equal status with men.
Everyone present had to admit that these heroines in the gendarmerie phalanx were already comparable to male soldiers in terms of style, courage and momentum. Even in terms of military appearance, the gendarmerie are slightly superior.
Many years later, this red and white passion and style are still deeply imprinted in the minds of the spectators. (To be continued.) )
