The sound of heavy footsteps was getting closer and closer, and everyone who was looking forward to it finally saw the march clearly, and three hundred big men in heavy armor walked over with a strange knife in their hands.

"Wow! ~Mo Dao Team, Mo Dao Team......" Everyone couldn't help cheering, yes, it was the Modao team that was coming towards him. In the era of cold weapons that emphasized personal bravery, the Mo knife was a sharp weapon for killing, whether it was cavalry or infantry, they would only be slaughtered.

Especially within the box army system, although firearms have gradually become the mainstream, becoming a Mo knife hand is still the highest honor in the hearts of the box army soldiers. Becoming a Mo swordsman is enough to prove that this person is a warrior of the three armies, so every year when it comes to selecting Mo swordsmen, it is the grandest festival in the army!

At this time, the onlookers could see the legendary Mo Dao Shou couldn't help cheering, among all the arms of the imperial court, Mo Dao Shou, Dragoon, and Su Guard were the three most popular and respected three types of troops, especially Mo Dao Shou not only became a legend in the army, but also became a myth among the people.

So when the Modao team appeared in the square, hundreds of thousands of people immediately burst into cheers, of course they were excited to see their idols at such a close distance, and the excitement in their hearts could only be expressed with cheers.

After Modao was a group of light cavalry, which was the main force in the cavalry of the Great Jin Dynasty. Six hundred light cavalry wore leather armor, straddled sabers and horn bows at their waists, held crossbows in one hand, and controlled horses in the other, and slowly passed in front of Sima Shu with light steps.

They were followed by a group of heavy cavalry surrounded by steel, dressed in black steel full-body armor and steel helmets, making it impossible to see the true face of the cavalry. Each cavalryman held a thick spear twelve feet long in his right hand, and the mounts under the heavy cavalry were much taller and stronger than ordinary war horses, and the mounts were covered with a layer of iron armor from the horse's head to the horse.

The power of heavy cavalry can not be underestimated by anyone, especially the charge launched in the form of a group, I am afraid that even the light infantry equipped with front-loading rifled guns can not be stopped, unless it encounters large-scale artillery bombardment and direct confrontation with heavy cavalry, otherwise once the cavalry wearing dozens of pounds of heavy armor like the box army charges, no one can stop it.

After the heavy cavalry had passed, in the open space in front of the palace gate, a group of musketeers with muskets approached, and their feet stepped on the concrete floor of the square, making a crisp sound of "step-step-step-". The soldiers marched in a row of twenty people in a phalanx of four hundred people, and walked in front of Sima Shu in a neat row.

I saw that the soldiers in this phalanx were all holding the bottom of the musket with their right hands, carrying their right shoulders at one end, and the barrel of each musket was inserted with a snowy bayonet, flashing with a chilling light; The soldier's left hand swayed back and forth as he moved forward. But whether it is the pace or the movement, almost all of them are uniform, and the phalanx of four hundred people seems to be one person.

Sima Shu saw his eyebrows flutter and said, "Sure enough, it is majestic." All the ministers also nodded their heads and whispered praise.

Especially when passing through the castle tower, the soldiers suddenly took off the muskets leaning on their shoulders, and with a few dry and neat movements, in the blink of an eye, it became a posture of holding the gun with both hands, holding the butt in the right hand, and holding the middle end of the gun in the left hand, horizontally forward, at an angle of 45 degrees. At the same time, the pace has changed from walking in unison to walking in positive steps. The sound of footsteps falling on the concrete floor "Bang-Bang-Bang-" also suddenly increased, heavy and loud.

Moreover, the change of pace and the movement of holding the gun is completed at the same time, only making a neat "click-click-click-click" sound, and the whole action is consistent, concise and neat, and coordinated. All the soldiers in each square are exactly the same. As they passed through the middle of the platform, they shouted "Long live" before moving forward again.

In order to improve the mobility of the artillery, Sima Shu asked the technicians to add a wheel to each cannon, and then it was dragged by mules and horses. Since the artillery unit has not yet achieved official results, everyone is a little overwhelmed when they look at the muzzle of the black hole.

However, Sima Shu from later generations was very aware of the power of artillery, and with his strong support, the imperial court has now formed ten thousand-man artillery battalions, each equipped with 90 howitzers of various calibers, 30 portable cannons, and 10 heavy cannons.

This is not the end, after consulting with the military, Sima Shu plans to set up 100 artillery battalions within ten years, so that the needs can basically be met.

In order to do a good job in this military parade, Sima Shu drew inspiration from the military parades of later generations, but only made a little change in some small details. Naturally, the ministers and people present had not seen it, they only felt that it was both fresh and mighty, especially when the phalanx passed, no matter how they looked horizontally, vertically, obliquely, gestures, or even throwing their arms and holding guns, they were all a line. This kind of formation alone makes people extremely shocked.

After all the phalanxes had passed, all the phalanxes lined up in a horizontal line, returned to the viewing platform together, and assembled into a long rectangular formation on the west side of the square.

Sima Shu, who had been holding the saber, put down the sheath of the knife at his waist at this time, and then rode a white horse with a strong pace and trotted towards the west side of the square. He ran to the end of the square, then turned his horse and began at the westernmost point of the procession, and as soon as he pulled the reins, his mount slowly ran eastward.

Seeing the emperor running to inspect the troops, the soldiers of the Xiang army immediately boiled, and the war drum corps was the first to beat, and the war drums responded to the emperor's review with twelve earth-shattering drums.

When Sima galloped over, the cadet team simultaneously knocked the flagpole in his hand three times in a row, and cheered loudly: "Long live!" Banzai! ”

And the sword players, longbowmen, crossbowmen, swordsmen, light cavalry, light cavalry, heavy cavalry, musketeers, and artillery men in the back shouted at the same time: "Hurray!" As Sima Shu's waving arm galloped by, wave after wave of sound came from west to east, and after a while, it reached the easternmost part of the procession, and the whole square was immediately plunged into a rainbow.

After reviewing the procession, Sima Shu turned his horse's head and galloped back to the middle of the square, silently looking at the parade troops who had quieted down. After a cup of tea, Sima Shu spoke, his voice was very loud, and it spread far away in the quiet square.

"In the past year, there have been countless soldiers and soldiers who have sacrificed their precious lives for our happy life today, and we are not qualified to complain about our hardships and the injustice of fate to us in the face of these true warriors. Compared with the martyrs who are forever silent in the cemetery, we are so lucky to be alive! ”

"These lovely warriors did not flinch or be timid in the face of a murderous enemy, because they knew that they were soldiers and needed to take on the responsibility of defending their homeland and country! Let's salute these lovely warriors! ”

"Hooray! Banzai! The crowd cheered again.

"When we have these fearless warriors, we will not be afraid of any mighty enemy; When our warriors repel the invading enemy; When our warriors defend the peace of the Empire; When our warriors hold up the banner and shout all the victory, and then plant the banner of victory all over the world; That is the honor of a warrior, the honor of a soldier! ”

As soon as Sima Shu's voice fell, thousands of soldiers raised their weapons in their hands and shouted one after another: "Long live!" Banzai! Banzai! ”

When the cheers subsided, a rousing drum beat suddenly came to mind from a corner of the square, and then a majestic song spread throughout the square, and more and more people sang along. Even Sima Shu couldn't help but sing this impassioned and heroic song.

"The wolf smoke rises, and the country looks north to ......"

Since this enthusiastic song was sung by Sima Shu in the Tiger Prison Pass, it soon spread throughout the entire Xiangjun Army, and basically all the soldiers could sing it. Thousands of soldiers sang in unison, and the scene was extremely shocking, and those who heard it couldn't help but feel their blood boiling. Even the ordinary people in the square were rendered enthusiastic, and they didn't care whether they could sing or not, they just hummed loudly behind the song.

As soon as the singing was over, the parade troops began to withdraw from the square one by one from the west, and the people in the square were even more boiling, and they kept cheering.

Zhang Hong was a little dismissive of the flashy military parade at first, but this short half an hour made him unforgettable. Even if he tried hard to think that this was just a "**" deliberately shown by Sima Shu. But deep down, he saw self-improvement and self-confidence from these cheering ordinary people!

Zhang Hong couldn't help but feel a burst of fear, the people of the Great Jin Dynasty were not only numerous but also diligent and intelligent, and it was they who created an endless world of flowers and flowers that the northern Hu people coveted. Now that he was a flock of sheep but was taught by the prince to be a wolf, he panicked when he thought of the huge reserve militia system under the rule of the imperial court. It was as if he had seen ten years later, millions of armies pouring down from the north, and all the enemies in his way had been crushed to powder!

In the evening, Luoyang, the capital of Beijing, continued to hold large-scale banquets, banquets for civil and military officials, and welcomed guests from all over the world. Many people also gathered in the square to watch various performances, in order to celebrate the new emperor's accession to the throne, after the start of the dinner, the imperial court organized a large song and dance party for the people to watch!

On this day, at least 300,000 people in Luoyang participated in the new emperor's enthronement celebration, for a time the entire Luoyang guests gathered, full of friends, beautiful women such as Rui, fortunately the cabinet has long been prepared, with the help of Luoyang Mansion Yin, although the crowd is dense but there is no sense of crowding.

After Sima Shu ascended the throne, the basic national policy of the early days of the Great Jin Empire was to recuperate internally, encourage the population, develop and encourage industry and commerce, vigorously revitalize science and technology, and strive to enhance the comprehensive national strength of the Great Jin Empire, and strive to sweep the world within ten years.
