The gods of August are still very hot, Xue Huaiyi, Fa Ming and other monks compiled the "Great Cloud Sutra" dedicated to the case of the Empress Dowager Wu, saying that the God Emperor is Maitreya is born, the contemporary Tang Dynasty is the lord of Yan Futi, in the Buddhist scriptures, Yan Futi means "the world".

Empress Dowager Wu Dayue, promulgated the "Great Cloud Sutra" in the world, and monks all over the world practiced this scripture.

At the same time, the matter of Duanmen's review of Zuo Yu Lin Wei was also put on the agenda. In order to achieve a better deterrent effect, Empress Dowager Wu announced to the world!

August 15, the Mid-Autumn Festival, in front of the end gate, there are already the soldiers of the right Yu Lin Wei to surround the field, and in accordance with the requirements of Wuqing, in the square in front of the end gate, with lime to draw a line, clearly mark the purpose, as well as the people's viewing area, etc., in short, Wu Qing's idea is to let this review let the Empress Dowager Wu eat a reassuring pill, don't look ahead.

And Wu Qing has already prepared a fireworks show, a fireworks show for half an hour, which should make the Empress Dowager Wu and the people of Shendu happy, of course, all this money is for the Empress Dowager Wu. The fireworks factory in Wuqing County also made a lot of money.

A qiē has been prepared, in the afternoon, the autumn wind gradually rose, the colorful flags on the head of the Duanmen City were displayed, the Empress Dowager Wu in full costume sat on the tower of the Duanmen City surrounded by hundreds of officials, there was Princess Taiping by her side, there was Emperor Li Dan and Li Dan's heirs were on one side, and Wu Chengsi and others stood behind them.

Regarding Wu Qing's review of Zuo Yu Lin Wei this time, he wanted to sabotage it, but he knew the consequences very well, and Wu Qing was not a good stubble, so he thought about it again and again, so he endured it. Now I see this battle. I can't help but regret a little, in this way, Wu Qing's status in my aunt's heart will be improved a lot.

Empress Dowager Wu squinted and looked down the city. I saw a sea of people under the city, and those people seemed to be holding colorful flags and shaking constantly, for this kind of thing, it was the first time that she, the old man, had seen it.

Wu Qing saw that Empress Dowager Wu and the hundred officials were seated, so he galloped towards the incomparably vast open space in front of the end gate.

Empress Dowager Wu saw a silver-armored general in the open space sweating and bloody, galloping over, and couldn't help but praise: "Good." What a tiger general! ”

Princess Taiping was a little excited when she watched the vigorous person and horse galloping over, but this was to increase her mother's popularity. So it's just a slight smile.

Wu Qing came to the end gate, grabbed the reins of the horse, and the sweaty BMW man stood up, and then fell heavily. Splash up a little dust. Wu Qing immediately surrendered his hand and shouted: "Playing the God Emperor, has the military parade begun?" ”

Empress Dowager Wu stood up, and with a wave of the sleeves of her robe, she could be regarded as ready to start. On both sides of the tower, there were heralds waving the command flag.

Suddenly, Wu Qing bowed down and then flew away, he wanted to explain to the Empress Dowager Wu in person, so as not to let the Empress Dowager not understand. In a few moments, he entered the end gate and came to the city. After all, Datang has not reviewed the forbidden army for many years, not to mention that this has not been carried out in accordance with proper etiquette.

When Wu Qing stood beside Empress Dowager Wu. Immediately a vigorous and majestic horn sounded, followed by the rumbling of war drums, and in the rhythm of war drums, the honor guard phalanx walked slowly from the left side of the gate to the right with neat steps. Suddenly, there were shouts from the people, and the girls of Shendu also screamed when they looked at these mighty and majestic soldiers.

Of course, the ladies of Wufu were also in the crowd, watching the excitement.

Wu Linglong took her sister Wu Yulong's hand and said, "Look at the upstairs of the city, where is my father." ”

Now Wu Yulong is fourteen years old, she is as tall as her mother, and there are many women in the Tang Dynasty who are married at this age. If it weren't for Wu Qing's pressure, the people who came to propose relatives would probably be able to break the threshold of Wufu.

Wu Qing didn't know that his family members were in the crowd below, he pointed to the honor guard phalanx and said: "God Emperor, please see, this is the honor guard phalanx, composed of nine hundred and ninety-nine soldiers, each soldier is the flag bearer in the army, the flag bearer is a soul in the army, and the place where the flag bearer is the soul." ”

There was a flag bearer in front of the honor guard, and he held high the golden dragon flag in his hand after the flag was changed, and the Empress Dowager Wu nodded, with a smile on her face.

When the guard of honor marched to the end gate, each soldier looked sideways at the hundred officials on the end gate, and then shouted loudly and uniformly: "Long live the God Emperor!" ”

The sound is like a bell, especially when the queue is so neat, and such an exciting slogan can be shouted.

Empress Dowager Wu Huo Ran got up, her face was excited, her hands were raised, and then she slowly put it down, and sighed: "This forbidden army of mine is also!" ”

It wasn't until the guard of honor slowly walked by that Empress Dowager Wu sat down, and the corners of Wu Qing's mouth twitched, so excited?

When the guard of honor phalanx was about to reach the end gate, the infantry phalanx also walked slowly, they held their shields high and shouted, and then put them down, and then made a slashing action with their horizontal knives, and then shouted to collect the shield, but the steps under their feet still moved forward, without a trace of panic.

When the guard of honor passed through the end gate, turned on the right side, and finally stood in the center of the square, constantly waving the flag.

Empress Dowager Wu had already squinted at the infantry phalanx following the honor guard phalanx, so she asked, "What kind of phalanx is this?" ”

Wu Qing said: "This is the sword and shield phalanx in the forbidden army, it can also be called the infantry phalanx, each soldier only has one shield and one sword, and on the battlefield, he is the main charging soldier." This infantry phalanx was also composed of 999 soldiers, and the movements they made were the simplest defensive and slashing movements. ”

Empress Dowager Wu looked at the uniform movements, and felt that this phalanx was not simple, and when the infantry phalanx walked through the end gate, she still shouted: "Wencheng Wude, long live the God Emperor!" ”

Empress Dowager Wu still stood up, her hands raised flat and then fell, a smile appeared on her face.

After a while, I saw another formation, the spear was raised, and the sound of armor hitting was endless, but the neat movement shocked all the officials!

The spear phalanx, when stepping in front of the end gate, the hundred officials suddenly felt a sense of solemnity, and the soldiers of the spear phalanx shouted loudly: "The sun and the moon are in the sky, long live the God Emperor!" ”

At this time, Empress Dowager Wu changed her name to "Cao", which was to take the meaning of "sun and moon volley", which was dismantled by Wu Qing, and then combined "Long live the God Emperor". Isn't the meaning obvious?

Empress Dowager Wu suddenly stood up, raised her hands high, and then slowly fell. Wu Chengsi, Wu Sansi and others couldn't wait to push Wu Qing off the tower. How could they not come up with such an idea? It seems that after I go back, I have to clean up those dog legs, it's really useless, it's a waste of food!

The reactions of the hundreds of officials were different, but most of them praised the prosperity of the military might, far exceeding the previous dynasty. But the people's expression is different. How could the people of Shendu have ever seen such a strict and lively scene, so they shouted and cheered vigorously.

Followed by the phalanx of archers, the longbow is the sharp weapon of the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, the control of the bow and crossbow is very strict, and the requirements for archers are also very strict. And archery also requires understanding. Wu Qing just hasn't had any understanding, so archery has not been very good.

The archer phalanx only had bows, no arrows, after all, this was a weapon of long-range destruction, and in order to avoid any emergency, there was only a bow, but with a quiver behind it. The phalanx of archers marched forward in unison. While doing the posture of drawing the bow and setting the arrow. Such a neat archery posture, that full bow. It was like ten thousand arrows firing at once, startling the hundred officials.

Wu Qing said with a smile: "Don't worry, the archers don't have an arrow in the phalanx, don't be afraid." ”

Empress Dowager Wu said with a smile: "It is rare for a hundred officials to see such a military appearance, and it is normal to have such a mood. ”

The phalanx of archers slowly walked by, shouting loudly: "Long live the God Emperor!" ”

Empress Dowager Wu got up and sat down like this, she was also a little tired, but she couldn't serve the old in front of hundreds of officials, so she still stood up, raised her arms high and then fell!

Followed by the sailor phalanx, compared to other phalanxes, the sailor phalanx really has no characteristics, only wearing water on the body, Wu Qing each was equipped with a horizontal knife.

Then there is the Modao phalanx, for the Modao, many generals are no strangers, but the Modao soldiers do not have a lot of equipment, one is that the Modao is too heavy, and since the Tang Dynasty has enough horses, it is rarely equipped with Modao in the army. After all, at the beginning of the founding of the country, there was a shortage of war horses, so they could only use the Mo knife to deal with the Turkic cavalry.

Each soldier of the Mo Dao phalanx was wearing heavy light armor, wrapped in armor, only a pair of eyes with holes, they were holding more than two feet of Mo Dao, shouting and slowly moving forward, making chopping movements from time to time.

Empress Dowager Wu had never seen such an army, and couldn't help asking, "What kind of army is this?" ”

Wu Qing said: "This is the Mo knife phalanx, this Mo knife is specially used to deal with the grassland cavalry, but unfortunately it is too heavy, ordinary soldiers can't swing it a few times, and then put on the bright armor is even worse, just these thousand people, but also after the careful selection of Wei Chen, it is barely enough." ”

Empress Dowager Wu immediately understood that this was the case.

Wu Qing continued: "The role of the Modao phalanx is to defend collectively and break the defense at short distances, and it is not suitable for long-distance charges, so now only the border army is equipped with some in the army. ”

Empress Dowager Wu thought about it and felt that it was necessary to form a Mo Dao Soldier, but this matter needed to be considered in the long run.

In short, the impact of the Modao phalanx on the hundred officials is huge, especially the roar, and then swinging the knife forward, as well as the bright armor wrapped all over the body, people can't see the soldiers' faces and expressions at all, and the Modao phalanx is like a killing machine, which makes the hearts of the hundred officials cold.

Next is the baggage phalanx, the horn suddenly sounded, the hundred officials were shocked, and they saw the baggage phalanx, this phalanx is very large, the first is a large bed crossbow dragged by three hundred horses, followed by three hundred medium-sized catapults dragged by two horses, and finally three hundred tall four-wheeled grain carts drawn by two horses. On the grain cart stood soldiers with spears and bows on their backs, all with solemn faces.

Empress Dowager Wu was not without solemnity and asked, "These are all weapons of war?" ”

Wu Qing said with a smile: "These are just part of it, like the bed crossbow is just an ordinary large bed crossbow, and the catapult, if you defend the city and siege the city, it will be bigger than that, and in the end, it is the transformation of the grain car, if you can, you can let the ordnance supervisor make some large models." ”

Empress Dowager Wu nodded, although she didn't understand this, but it was obvious that with these, it was also a deterrent to the vassal state.

Then, there was a rush of war drums, and suddenly the sound of horses' hooves came, a little messy, it was the light cavalry phalanx, Wu Qing was very helpless about the light cavalry phalanx, after all, the war horse could not know how to think like a person, so the light cavalry shouted under the end gate and galloped slowly, followed behind the baggage phalanx, and returned to the Xuanwu Gate directly from the west of the palace city.
