On May 11, 1896, at the turn of spring and summer, Seris specially invited the ministers of various countries in Yanjing to attend and watch the military parade of the republican [***] team held outside the Chongwen Gate of Yanjing.

The location of the military parade of the Republic is set between Chongwenmen, the inner city of Yanjing, and the southern part of the former Forbidden City, which happens to be located in the east of Yanjing, where the legations of various countries are very concentrated. In fact, the original organizational unit of the Republic's political axe was set on Qianmen Street between Zhengyangmen and the Temple of Heaven, but later, under the intervention of Chen Zeyu, the military parade was finally changed to this area, which is quite interesting.

"The parade of troops of the Republic is complete! Yuan is born first! Please check it out! ”

Former Minister of National Defense Yang Yu stood in front of a PA device and reported loudly to Chen Zeyu.

"Let's get started!" Chen Zeyu replied with a military salute.

In the majestic military music "March of the Military Parade", several formations neatly held steel guns, and the army phalanx of the Republic wearing new-style military uniforms passed in front of [***] in a unified step, and each phalanx walked to the city gate and was a neat military salute in an instant.

"Salute! ――”

Chen Zeyu, who was also dressed in a black military uniform, and all the other guests on the tower of the city saluted the parade troops in turn.

Seris's military parade still follows the parade phalanx of the republican [***] team in the previous life, as a person who has been a soldier, there may be no one in this time and space who is more familiar with this shocking military parade than Chen Zeyu. On the entire Chang'an Avenue from south to north, whether it was the Yanjing citizens on the side of the road or the ministers and reporters of various countries on the parade platform, they were all stunned by this novelty and cold military parade!

One move is ten thousand feet at the same time, one shot is ten thousand guns at the same time, like a rushing wave, standing like a straight wood! Journalists from all over the world rushed to take pictures of everything in front of them with their cameras.

"Incredible! An army of steel! "Some reporters even have the headline of their newspaper the next day.

"The armed forces of the Republic of Seris are made up of active units of the Seris Defense Forces, armed police units and reserve forces! There were 24 infantry phalanxes, 5 army cadet phalanxes, 5 artillery phalanxes, 1 medic phalanx and 5 cavalry phalanxes participating in the parade of the Republic! Participating troops: Reference troops from all military districts of the Republic and all branches of the army! They will pass through [***] in turn, before being reviewed! ”

On the tower of the city, the loud voice of the military parade explainer came from the loud voice of the speaker in the amplification broadcasting equipment connected by the line.

"The troops under review will show the motherland and the world the brilliant achievements of our army's regularization and modernization with a strong lineup and magnificent momentum! The first to come to us was the 5 Republic Army and Navy cadet phalanx, composed of 250 second-year cadets from the Sizhejiang Army Military Academy and the Naval Ship Academy! ”

"Next is the mighty infantry phalanx of the Republic Army! The 24 infantry phalanxes symbolize the 24 units of the republic's standing army integrated divisions! This is an army unit with a glorious tradition! Withstood years of blood and fire! It is their existence that safeguards the interests of the country and promotes regional peace and development at all times! ”

The soldiers of the army phalanx of the Republic were holding all kinds of equipment one by one, accompanied by the deafening sound of the deafening footsteps of ten thousand people striding in a sea of mountains, only to see the faces of the ministers of various countries who were invited to come on the city tower were amazed, especially the Russian minister Blitz in the crowd was even more pale, and he only felt that today's scene was just aimed at his own country!

Of course, there are surprises in this, after all, not all Western countries have clashed with the Chinese.

"Dear Chen, the momentum of your troops' phalanx is really amazing! It was already not inferior to the German army at all. ”

Standing beside Chen Zeyu, the blonde young man who was talking to him cordially was named Wilhelm Ferreo von Prussia, a member of the Hohenzollern royal family from Germany.

"Hehe, thank you His Royal Highness William for your compliment." Chen Zeyu himself is very fluent in German, but he didn't need to trouble the interpreters around the two, and Chen Zeyu unceremoniously accepted the praise of the German prince.

His father, Wilhelm Heinrich, Prince of Prussia of the German Empire, was smiling and smiling as he watched Seris's military parade with the two young men beside him, apparently pleased that his own young son, Ferreo, would be able to make friends with the upstart Führer of Seris.

Except for the high-ranking republican [***] who was watching the military parade with Chen Zeyu to the right, all the remaining ministers standing on the left side of the [***] tower looked at Prince Heinrich with jealousy, obviously they all knew what it meant for their country to gain the friendship of the young man in front of them.

"Salute to the Führer! ――”

At this time, a women's phalanx full of youthful breath suddenly walked in front of [***], and the ministers of various countries around Chen Zeyu showed curiosity.

"This is the medical corps phalanx that my country just formed last year," Chen Zeyu introduced to friends from all over the world.

William Fiore looked at the beautiful figures in white medic uniforms who walked in front of him, "Oh, Chen, this is amazing, they are the Nightingale of the East!" ”

"No, you're more mature! Nightingale is, after all, a personally initiated battlefield meditative, and you have formalized that! I have to say! Chen, that's a great idea! I don't know how you came up with it? As soon as I get back, I will propose to the German Army General Staff that there be more female medics! ”

Chen Zeyu shook his head, "It's also a coincidence that these young girls were arranged to be medical soldiers in the army!" Dear William, do you know this place in Jeju Island? ”

The German prince looked puzzled and said in a tone of not very affirmation, "I seem to have heard of it, but I am not very impressed, do you mean that small island in the south of Korea?" ”

"Well, yes! William, your geography skills are really amazing. ”

"Hehe, where, where!" William Fiore spoke in half-baked Chinese, and all the officials around him couldn't help but laugh.

"William, you know what. Hundreds of years ago, Jeju Island was a country of reading. After that, it was ruled by the Yi dynasty of Joseon for a period of time until twenty years ago......"

William looked at Chen Zeyu curiously, "What happened twenty years ago?" ”

"Twenty years ago, the Purboni Empire in eastern Korea grew stronger and stronger after political reform, and it didn't take long to annex Jeju Island, which originally belonged to North Korea. It was not until not long ago that our army drove him away from the island, and Jeju Island was seized by our country again. ”

Chen Zeyu's tone revealed the hegemonic thoughts in his heart without any scruples.

"But you know what? William, after my army landed, I found that all the local people on Jeju Island had already been killed by Yu himself, and only these young Jeju girls remained. ”

"Oh my God! How can I do that...... So why did they keep only these girls? William wondered.

Chen Zeyu replied while staring at these beautiful figures walking in front of him, "What do you say, William?" You've guessed it yourself, haven't you? ”

Young Prince William looked pity, "Oh, yes. ”

"After my troops wiped out the Jeju Island, all the girls on the island wept bitterly, and although they were gone, they had already lost their families and were all homeless. Yes, there were only 703 surviving young women left on the island. Chen Zeyu continued to explain.

"Well, and then you took them in?"

Chen Zeyu shook his head and said, "After eliminating all the people on the island, these girls are very grateful to the soldiers of my troops. At that time, many people spontaneously came to the barracks to help the military doctors take care of these soldiers who were wounded on the battlefield...... Despite the loss of their homeland, they were still very kind, and it was they who touched all the officers and soldiers of our country at that time. ”

"Oh, what a wonderful story. Old! I want to write all this down, saying that I am cruel and the kindness of the Jeju girls...... Well, and of course, the bravery of the young Seris soldiers......"

William said intoxicated to Chen Zeyu.

"Hehe, William. I envy you so much for being able to follow your father's fleet around the world. Chen Zeyu looked yearning, "When you finish writing this world travelogue, you must send me a copy." ”

"Oh, of course! Chen, my friend! ”

While the two were talking, a group of awe-inspiring Seris artillery phalanx was ushered in on the parade ground.

"Salute! ――”

Accompanied by the majestic march of the military parade, on the tower of the city, the hands of the two young people were clasped together......
