Chapter 597: Five Stars Out of the East, Benefiting China
The spring breeze in February blew away the bitter cold of winter.
On the fifteenth day of the first month, the second cabinet officially debuted, and Li Ying unsurprisingly entered the cabinet from the local government, and became the sixth person after Fan Debang, Zhang Shouyan, Li Hongzhang, Shen Guifen, and Huo Guangzheng, still above Guo Songtao.
On the whole, the second cabinet has not changed much from the first-person cabinet, and those people are still in charge. This also makes all strata in the world feel at ease and rest assured, and the main body of the cabinet remains unchanged, which means that the theme of the imperial court remains unchanged, which especially makes many new middle and lower class bourgeoisie and bourgeoisie happy.
But for many ordinary people, the cabinet is not as topical as the big military parade.
China has had a tradition of 'military parade' since ancient times. The "General Dictionary" records: "When Yao Shun was in the past, the five rites were prepared. This shows that the etiquette of the guard of honor has taken shape in China as early as four or five thousand years ago.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, "Spring and Autumn. There is such a record in the sixth year of Huan Gong: autumn and August, Renwu, Dayue. Explain the "Biography of Gu Liang" in the Spring and Autumn Period. The Sixth Year of Huan Gong explained: Who is the great reader? Parade vehicles also.
In addition to checking the military readiness and combat readiness of the army, the ruler's purpose of regular military parades was more to show off his prestige and force to the people and foreigners, so as to deter people's hearts. In addition, military parades held before or between battles are called 'watching soldiers' or 'watching divisions'. There is a record of 'watching the army to intimidate the princes' very early in Chinese history.
Nowadays, the big parade of the new Qin is not a 'spectator', but Stalin's military parade on Red Square in Moscow at the end of 1941 is the real spectator.
The military parade scene described in Emperor Wen of Wei's Cao Pi's "Guangling Watching the Soldiers" is vast and majestic, and it is magnificent. It makes people tremble: "The spear is a mountain forest, and the Xuanjia shines in the sun." The fierce general is furious, and the courage is rampant. Surrender to the enemy without a fight. The soldiers are called virtuous. ”
The well-known Jiayuguan of the Great Wall is a military parade field that can accommodate hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in the ancient battlefield, and its large school field is still intact.
Liu Xian prepared nearly 20,000 officers and men for this grand parade, and the whole army was organized with integrated divisions and independent brigades and regiments, and each department selected a representative of the phalanx, plus the heroic units, cadets, artillery, and navy, and he did not know whether they would be able to 'surrender to the enemy without a fight'. But it is absolutely able to - the spear becomes a mountain forest, and the armor shines in the sun. The fierce general is furious, and the courage is rampant.
The last sentence of Cao Pi's "Guangling Watching the Soldiers" truly explains the fundamental purpose of the military parade. But this is not something that any country can do with a military parade.
The Earth of the Present Day. Except for the Grand Colonel Parade of the Royal Navy of the British Empire, even the military parade of the Germans could not make their opponents bow their heads in a happy way. Can't you do it and stop the military parade? As long as it shows the strength of national defense, highlights the style of the army, invigorates the national spirit, and stimulates patriotic pride, it is enough!
There are also many written accounts of military parades in the West. In the 18th century. Military parades are popular in many countries in Western Europe. Especially during the Napoleonic Wars at the turn of the century. Generals inspect troops as if they were commonplace.
In his previous life, Liu Xian, the military parade for the 50th anniversary of the Celestial Empire, the military parade for the 60th anniversary of the National Day, and the mighty and majestic momentum of the People's Liberation Army were full of enthusiasm and pride.
Especially the 50-year military parade, when Liu Xian was still a teenager. It was the first time I saw such a majestic and mighty military parade on TV, and for the first time I had the concept of the words 'big military parade' in my mind. its influence. The impact on Liu Xian was profound.
Although the New Qin military parade contains many purposes, in Liu Xianam's view, it is still the first force to stir people's hearts.
Therefore, he paid great attention to the 'table xiàn' of this military parade!
He's going to make a perfect parade that blinds everyone. It is necessary to impress every spectator of the military parade and the entire city of Beijing with the most powerful and exciting visual impact.
All the troops sent from all departments of the army came to Beijing three months ago, and with the exception of the Xinjiang Military Region, the units under review from all departments were drawn from the front-line units in the army, forming a total of 24 army phalanxes and six cavalry phalanxes. In addition, there is one phalanx of marines, one phalanx of coastal defense troops, one phalanx of naval cadets, one phalanx of logistics engineering troops, and one phalanx of the navy, and a total of 36 phalanxes of infantry.
Next came the artillery. From 54mm caliber small guns, to 75mm caliber field guns, then 105mm caliber heavy guns, 120mm caliber heavy guns, and finally 150mm caliber heavy guns, five cannons of different calibers, or mountain artillery, or howitzers, a total of ten phalanxes, 400 guns!
And the forty-four phalanxes, with a total strength of more than 20,000 people.
These people had been training since years ago, and the bitter cold of Layue had also retreated in the face of the soldiers' high morale and boiling blood.
Raise your hand, throw your foot, neatly aligned, concise and bright!
Straight military uniforms, full morale, polished weapons, bright military boots. They will officially erect a new image of heavy workers and soldiers in the eyes of people all over the world.
The foot drill of Germany and France has its own characteristics, and the foot drill of the Qin army with the People's Liberation Army is even better than that of Germany and France in the eyes of Liu Xian. At least this is more in line with the aesthetics of the Chinese. The so-called European-style goose step, let the Europeans kick it. The Chinese walk in a straight step -- the left foot kicks out about 75 cm straight forward, the legs should be straight, the toes should be pressed down, the soles of the feet are parallel to the ground, about 25 cm from the ground, the whole soles of the feet are touched by appropriate force, and the center of gravity of the body is moved forward at the same time, the right foot moves according to this method, the left palm is to the right when swinging the arm backwards, the right palm is to the left, the front side of the wrist is about 30 cm from the trouser seam, and the travel speed is 110~116 steps per minute.
In Liu Xian's eyes, the Chinese People's Liberation Army's positive steps are the most beautiful, and the military posture is the most powerful. Although he had never been a soldier, he had received military training, poured water on forums, and had a good understanding of Zhengbu when he mocked North Korea's exaggerated military parade.
Anyway, the Qin army that came out of Hanzhong, and now the millions of elites in Huaxia who are now unified, were trained by him in this way.
The platoon is like a knife cut, the swinging arm is like a streamer, the kicking is like an arrow, and the landing town is thundering.
Horizontal, vertical, and oblique are all one line. The line line is straight. The beauty of the entire queue is stunning; The sound of thunderous feet, the kicking with the wind, and the sonorous pace of landing and smashing the pit. The beauty of power can strike at the human heart; The absolute standard stride, the absolutely uniform pace, the absolutely upright direction, the absolutely accurate second reading, and the absolutely coordinated cooperation bring an unparalleled feast to the vision.
Every soldier in the PLA parade unit is a Qin figurine. The readers are all strong-minded, and the viewers are all excited. The big military parade shocked the military might. The soldiers are magnificent, the steps are strong, and the courage is one, which makes people dizzy. It's breathtaking.
What Liu Xian wanted was for his army to be as powerful and majestic as the People's Liberation Army in later generations. Although there is a gap in the times. But the parade and the mental outlook can be replaced by training and different excitement.
For the current Chinese people, the feeling that "the Chinese people have stood up since then" is no less than that of 1949 in the original time and space.
The glory of the Celestial Empire has just fallen, and it can still be recalled, and Liu Xian was then revived, and the surging passion in the hearts of the Chinese people was also burst out.
And then there's hard training, hard training, hard training, hard training, hard training, hard training......
Assiduous. Assiduous; Hard, hard!
can always make Liu Xian satisfied.
The two collide together. The effect of that stimulation is no worse than that of the People's Liberation Army in later generations.
In short, he asked the officers and men of the 44 phalanxes in this military parade to embody the unity of strength and beauty, the display of might and solemnity, and the cohesion of discipline and will in the PLA military parade in later generations, like waves crashing on the shore and pine waves, resonating with the earth.
……
You don't see it, the end of the Han army, the weak crown is a captive, please be long.
You don't see it, Ban Dingyuan is far away, and the peerless light cavalry urges the battle clouds.
The boy should be in serious danger, how can he let the Confucian crown miss this life.
The situation is that the country is in danger, and the feathers are constantly fighting.
Abandon my old pen and write my wartime.
More than 100,000 comrades sang war songs and joined the army.
Qi joined the army, cleaned the dust, and swore to sweep away the Tartars without regard for himself
Endure the affection and lightly interrupt the homesickness, and generously hold out the heart of China.
Went to the battlefield with a smile, and the banner was unbright.
The air blows too white into the moon, and the long arrow is pulled to shoot the wolf.
Quarrying a load of Jinling, Hebei Central Plains second flat.
The heroic iron army went out of the customs, and the gods rode away from the dust.
……
On February 20, the seventh year of the new Qin, the passionate singing resounded in the grand Tiananmen Square.
The military song of the expeditionary force in the original time and space, the eight-year Anti-Japanese War, and the national crisis was in danger, and with a slight modification, it became one of the military songs of the New Qin Empire in this time and space. Together with the battle song of the Red Turban Army, as well as several well-known songs such as "Return to the Han and Tang Dynasties" and other well-known songs of the previous emperors, they are sung all over the world.
The wind is from the dragon, the cloud is from the tiger, and the dust and earth are famous.
Looking at Shenzhou, the people are bitter, and thousands of miles of fertile land are barren.
Look at the world, as much as you want, and make up for the defects of heaven.
Good boy, don't be a parent, just for the common people, not for the lord.
Holding a steel knife of ninety-nine, he killed Hu Er before stopping.
I am a dignified man, what is a Tartar as a horse and a cow.
The strong man drank the wine in the bowl and did not look back on the journey of a thousand miles.
The golden drums roared in unison, and the yellow dragon swore endlessly.
As soon as the song ended, the second military song began. Outside the square, tens of thousands of people who watched the reading were inspired by this spirit-inspiring song. Whistling and cheering echoed through the sky.
Ninety-nine guns fired nine salutes in unison, and the deafening sound of the cannons made the originally rendered Tiananmen Square quiet, and the majestic atmosphere in the cannons rushed to the face.
After the salute, the Chief of the General Staff, Army General Qi Dalin, announced the edict: "The parade begins!" ”
The sound of Huang Zhong Da Lu immediately sounded.
With the thunderous sound of cannons, the three teams of honor guards were the first to wave their flags. In the first team, a flag-bearer leaned forward with both hands and held the flag of the New Qin Empire - the five-star red flag!
Behind him were two flag bearers, one in an army dress and the other in a navy dress.
After the national flag, they are the army flag and the navy flag, the army flag is still the red red flag of the year, and the navy flag has evolved into another shape, the red military flag is inlaid with three blue, two white and five thin belts, and there are two honor guards wearing the military uniform of the military after the flag bearer.
