Originally, there were still noisy people on the street, but when the guards came out singing military songs, they couldn't help but be shocked by this kind of thick and passionate singing, and there was a sense of resonance in their hearts, and their blood was boiling.

With the order of the master of ceremonies, the gunners who had already done it immediately lit the salute, and suddenly the sky was bright and shining with brilliant colors.

At this time, the residents of Hangzhou City and the people who came to watch the ceremony from all over the city were already crowded on both sides of the avenue, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the empty alleys of Hangzhou City are not at all exaggerated, and even the women who are not easy to show their heads have sneaked out of their homes, blended into the crowd, and crowded on both sides of the avenue.

The ceremony of Zhao Pu's enthronement was hastily held in Yingtianfu, Nanjing.

At that time, in order to deal with the crisis, everything was simple.

And this military parade, to a certain extent, is to show the emperor's prestige and make up for the humble regret of the last enthronement ceremony.

Because there were too many people, and they had to guard against stampedes, they drew a line on both sides of the street in advance, and sent soldiers to fortify them with three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry.

From the left side of the palace, a majestic command sounded, followed by the sound of a golden drum, and the parade officially began.

At this time, Zhao Pu appeared on the city tower.

"Long live our emperor! Hooray! ”

Immediately, the guards let out a roar like rolling thunder, and some civil officials couldn't help but feel a sense of dizziness, only to feel that their hearts were shocked. The civilian officials all boasted that they knew the soldiers, and the generals had seen a lot, but when they saw the majesty of the guards today, they knew what a strong army was!

I am not afraid of not knowing the goods, I am afraid of comparing the goods, and I can see the strength and weakness when I compare. It's not just about equipment. The gap in training is even more the gap in momentum.

The three thousand guards appeared, all of them were dressed in black clothes and black armor, all wearing plate armor, and some of them were holding pole flags in their hands, of different colors, many of which were in tatters, but the discerning people could see that these banners were the battle flags of the Jin army.

Over the years, the Bazi Army has fought fiercely against the Jin Army. Captured battle flags.

Each banner represents the history of the eight-character army, and countless heroes have paid for it.

This is a display of military exploits and a proud capital.

"Mighty!"

Some of the people immediately cheered.

At this time, Su Yi's face turned blue. These are not fakes, they are all real feats. Every flag. It's all a shame for the Jin Army.

After three thousand infantry. It was three thousand cavalry. These cavalry were the most elite part of the Song army.

Behind each cavalryman is a black cape, with various feathers on the top of the head indicating the rank, uniform armor, neat clothing, a saber in the leather sheath on the right side of the saddle, and a cavalry shield with a hideous face on the left side of the saddle. A spear was held in his hand, armed to the teeth, no one suspected that it was a flower shelf, and everyone invisibly exuded murderous energy. This is also a soldier of a hundred battles, which can only be shown by killing countless people and destroying countless enemies.

Each cavalryman had a face armor on his face, and the face armor was a ghost face, hideous and terrifying, like a demon crawling out of hell.

This cavalry is called the Ghost Face Army.

The horses that sat down, neatly aligned, and An An marched forward in parts, making the formation appear not chaotic at all, which made people feel that it was extremely powerful.

The appearance of the cavalry of the Guards once again caused a round of applause among the civil and military officials, and the cavalry was the king of war in this era. Whoever has cavalry is equal to having the initiative in the war.

Su Yi's face changed again, these cavalry are far inferior to the Jurchen cavalry when it comes to elite, the same number of duels, the Jurchen cavalry can be defeated, but don't forget that these cavalry have been in army for a short time, less than three years. It is not easy to reach this level in a short period of time.

Moreover, war never goes alone.

It is often the case that superior forces are concentrated and attacked by the enemy's weak points.

These cavalry of the Song army and the Jurchen cavalry of the solitary battle may be defeated, but with the infantry of the Song army, the combination of the two may not be able to gain the upper hand.

And the most surprising thing is that these cavalry have a fierce temperament that is not afraid of death, and this cavalry can only be killed, but cannot be scared to death.

Historically, the Jurchen cavalry, the Khitan cavalry, and the Western Xia cavalry. When it comes to tactical combat power, there is not much difference, they are all between the two middles, but why the Jurchen cavalry was able to defeat the Khitan cavalry and the Western Xia cavalry is because the Jurchen cavalry is more fierce and not afraid of death.

The Khitan cavalry and the Western Xia cavalry lacked the heart to fight to the death. If you can win, you will fight, but once you encounter a small setback, once the attack does not go well, you will be impatient, you will retreat, and you will run away.

At this time, the cavalry of the Song Dynasty vaguely had a strong military temperament, and as long as they were honed for a few years, they might not be able to become a strong army like the Jin Army.

After the cavalry, there were scouts. Compared with the previous cavalry, the scout soldiers were equipped with simpler equipment, wearing only simple armor, hanging sabers, long ropes, etc., and looked like they were hanging. Laymen can't see anything, but some insiders see the truth.

This is the scout, the elite of the elite.

Scouts are different from normal classes. Other branches of the armed forces, whether infantry, cavalry, or naval divisions, all pay attention to the coordination of various units, joint operations, and the role of groups. However, the scout is a lone hero, often fighting alone, often sneaking up on the enemy, or being attacked by the enemy.

They are the eyes of the army, and they need to detect the enemy in advance, and avoid the enemy's sniping, and at the right moment, snipe the enemy.

Their individual combat ability is, in modern terms, "special forces", and in the words of the ancients, "martial arts masters".

Don't look like it's a little bit of a ruffian, a ruffian, a scrap of wood, but once you start to do it, it will be a nightmare for the enemy.

After the cavalry and scouts, the Guards had nine phalanxes of infantry, one phalanx of 1,500 men, equivalent to a battalion, two of which were pikemen, two of which were sword players, and two were crossbowmen. The steps are neatly aligned, as if they were an inseparable whole.

In front of each infantry formation, there was also a flag-bearer, who was led by a tall and mighty battalion general, and behind the battalion commander was a drummer with a marching drum on his body. While beating a very rhythmic drum beat.

The infantry behind him, every step is just stepping on the drum, the stride length is basically exactly the same, the queue is compared to the cavalry in front, and there are a lot of neat out, thousands of people raise their legs and land, all of them are one action, but the upper body remains straight, the pikeman bends his arm to clamp the huge spear under his armpit, and the spear leans forward slightly. The five hundred spears were all tilted at the same angle, and none of them deviated, forming two bright and flickering guns, and the knife player was holding a rattan card with a hideous beast face on his left arm, and a single knife hanging from his ribs. The archers carried bows and arrows, quivers, on their backs.

The infantry formation was relatively dense in horizontal rows. The vertical row leaves some space. No matter from any angle you look at this team, you can see a straight line, when the soldier's leg lifts and falls, the footsteps are just stepping on a point, and the leg that steps also forms waves of waves, and every time he lands, there is a boom and a bang. When traveling continuously, it is a rumbling sound, and there is not a trace of noise.

The whole infantry formed a unique and spectacular beauty, with a show of force, deterrence, and oppression. It makes people frightened to see it.

"Mighty!"

At this time, the shouting was more intense.

The onlookers were already enthusiastic, with this majestic and mighty army and horses, safety is finally guaranteed, and there is no need to worry about the Jin army going south and bloodbathing the south of the Yangtze River, and there is no need to worry about living in dire straits. Even some dissatisfied people are excited at the moment.

The so-called imperial court tax increase was never mentioned again.

At this time, Su Yi only had fear in her heart, and there was nothing else. Compared with the previous troops, the infantry phalanx is even more shocking.

In the Song Dynasty, the most important type of military was still the infantry. A strong infantry is the foundation of defending the country. The reason why the Song Dynasty was defeated by the Jin army was because the infantry was decayed, the city was not defended enough, and the field battle was insufficient.

And this kind of infantry shows a strong side, and if you want to defeat such an infantry, even if it is a Jurchen cavalry, it is enough to drink a pot.

Suddenly, Su Yi somewhat understood that the defeat of the Jin army in Yangzhou and Xiangyang was not accidental, not luck, but relying on strong strength.

"This emperor of the Song Dynasty is really amazing, he already has the fundamental ............ to strengthen the army"

Then there are the baggage troops, in comparison, the baggage troops belong to the second-line troops, and belong to the substitutes of the first-line troops, but the combat power is still not trivial, and mules and horses follow closely behind. The baggage troops have a bearing on the overall combat effectiveness of the Guards, and their participation in this parade is intended to be a commendation.

Then there was the engineer battalion, some of whom carried a sapper shovel, some of whom had an axe, or who carried a large saw, carrying various tools, not like the army, but more like a group of craftsmen in military uniforms. In fact, they are indeed craftsmen, but they have been militarized and have become more combative.

When the army went to war, they brought some craftsmen, mostly temporary conscription, repairing vehicles, building pontoon bridges, and manufacturing offensive tools and defensive equipment.

But Zhao Pu doesn't think so, and specializes in doing special things.

In this era, transportation is extremely inconvenient. The biggest problem in marching and fighting is not to engage the enemy, not to have food and grass, but to have inconvenient roads. The inconvenience of the road slowed down the march, so that it was impossible to catch up with the enemy, and could only follow the enemy and eat ashes.

The formation of the engineer battalion, which is listed as a separate branch of the army, is to improve the speed of the march, run to the front of the army, open roads and build bridges in the mountains, pave the way for the Guards to fight thousands of miles, and ensure the actions of the Guards. or opening passages for the main battle forces, or digging holes in strong walls, etc.

Despise the engineer battalion and often suffer a big loss.

In fact, the engineer battalion rarely participated in the battle, but its role in the battle was extremely significant.

After the phalanx of engineers, there is the medical team.

While the other branches of the military are trying to kill people, the medical team is trying to save people.

In this era, medical technology is so poor that only a small number of people are really killed on the battlefield and slashed by swords; Many soldiers are not treated in a timely manner and the medical environment is poor, resulting in death.

As long as the medical environment is right and can be treated in a timely manner, many lives will be saved.

And those who have fought bloodily on the battlefield and finally rescued them will often soon become veterans, elite soldiers, and strong soldiers.

Taking advantage of the emperor's authority, Zhao Pu opened a medical school and gradually trained a large number of medical soldiers for the army, not asking them to become famous doctors, but only seeking basic medical knowledge, in addition to treating various fractures and traumatic injuries, it can also treat some ordinary minor diseases such as wind chill and stomach trouble, which is enough.

In fact, the cost of training a medical team is very small, but the gains are huge.

After the establishment of the medical team, the casualty rate of the Guards was reduced, and as long as it was not a big defeat, a defeat of a thousand miles, the wounded soldiers could be treated and bandaged in a timely manner, and the mortality rate was greatly reduced, and many people returned to the team after recovering from their injuries.

Compared with the recruits who have never seen blood, they are very strong in combat effectiveness, and they can be said to be the backbone of the Guards, and they play a vital role in the Guards' super combat effectiveness.

"Baggage troops, engineering troops, medical teams, interesting!"

If cavalry, scouts, infantry, etc., are combat troops; The baggage troops, engineering troops, and medical teams are non-combat units. Non-combat units, under normal circumstances, do not go to the battlefield to fight, but this does not mean that they are not important, but they are very important.

Combat units, which determine the strength of a unit's combat effectiveness;

and not a combat unit, which determines the sustained combat capability of a unit.

At this time, Suyi was already numb.

The Song army was very strong, if it was on the eve of the Jingkang Revolution, the Song army had such a strong army, and the Jin army would not be able to defeat Yanshan at all, and it would not be able to cross the Yellow River.

"This emperor of the Song Dynasty is really a natural handsome talent!"

At this time, a new phalanx appeared, there were only more than two hundred people, the color of the military uniform was very different from all the generals in front, the generals' battle armor, helmets, etc., were all painted white, the iron helmet did not have feathers, and the shoulders and sleeves were embroidered with various colored stripes, representing the military rank.

"White Armor!"

"This is my Great Song Dynasty's White Armor Army!"

"The White Armor Army is the Navy. The year before last, the Jin army invaded our Jiangnan, why did they withdraw later. It was the White Armor Army, sitting on a large ship of thousands of materials, landing in Liaodong and attacking the rear of the Jin army, and the Jin army saw that the situation was not good, so it had to withdraw and leave! ”

"Then why do you wear white, like a filial piety dress!"

"White impermanence means wearing white clothes. The emperor said that white represents death, and the navy wants to be white and impermanent, and take the life of the Jin army! ”

Looking at the navy, Su Yi only felt hatred, but he was helpless.

No matter how strong the cavalry of the Jin army is, it is not difficult to go to the sea; However, the navy can land in the rear of the Jin army on a large scale, and it is impossible to prevent it. (To be continued......)
