Today is the big day of their marriage, and the four girls are very excited. Especially for Cai Yan and Bai Tong, the long-awaited results have finally come to fruition today, and their hearts that have been hanging high can also be put down.

Zhang Chao came to the door of Cai's Mansion with a large group of people, and then 100 boxes of dowry gifts were carried into Cai's Mansion by the soldiers, demonstrating Zhang Chao's strong financial resources.

After the dowry was sent to Cai's house, four soft sedan chairs were placed in front of the door, and the four brides entered the soft sedan chair with the support of the maids, which was considered to have roughly completed the procedure of receiving relatives.

After seeking Zhang Chao's opinion, Lu Su set the location back to the herdsman's mansion, Cai Yong was also picked up by another sedan chair, and the team returned to the house.

In order to ensure the safety of the way, so that there are no accidents. Not only did the light cavalry of the 3,000 Zhangjia army dispatch, but even all the members of Tianyan in the city were also dispatched, and they were mixed among the people.

Fortunately, Zhang Chao's influence is not great, and no one really wants to trouble him, and the process of receiving relatives is still very smooth.

After waiting to return to the city lord's mansion, it was time to worship the hall, Zhang Miao and Cai Yong sat high in the hall, and let Zhang Chao take the three daughters to kneel and hand the wine to the two.

After the worship ceremony was completed, since someone and three daughters were introduced into the backyard of the shepherd's mansion, Zhang Chao did not keep up, and he still had a more important task to do today, that is, to review the army.

Even if it was decided that today was Army Day, Zhang Chao decided to make it more grand, and this led to the military parade.

The ancients did not have that habit, and when they heard about the military parade, they were very curious, and even these civil and military generals under Zhang Chao did not immediately understand Zhang Chao's meaning.

It was Zhang Chao, looking at everyone's curious eyes, and said unswervingly: "The army is naturally going to parade on the founding day, and this must form a law." In the future, there will be a military parade depending on the situation, maybe once every five years or every ten years, but in short, this is a good opportunity to show our strength to the outside world, and it must not be stopped. ”

With Zhang Chao's decision, the military parade was decided, and the location was in the open space outside the barracks in the south of the city.

Under Zhang Chao's instructions, a number of long tables were already placed on a shelf supported by giant logs, and a bright red satin cloth was laid on them, making them look very solemn.

After waiting for Zhang Chao to bring people here, it was convenient to sit on the high platform, and at the same time, General Zhao Yun, who was the head of the general, also took off his red clothes and changed to white clothes, and was the first to appear in front of Zhang Chao on a war horse.

"My lord, the preparations for the military parade of the state group have been completed, whether it will start, please instruct." Zhao Yun followed what Zhang Chao had taught him before, and repeated the words one by one.

"Let's go." Zhang Chao stood up from the high platform and ordered Zhao Yun with a serious expression.

"Yes." After Zhao Yun shouted loudly, he rode around and said to the black-armored soldiers who had been waiting in the distance, "The parade begins." ”

As the parade began, the first thing that appeared in everyone's eyes was the most elite heavy cavalry of the Zhang Jiajun in the Zhang Chao group.

There were two thousand people, five people in a row, a total of four hundred rows, and they came from afar.

Just like in the previous training, the two thousand cavalry were heavily armoured, with a three-meter-long giant sword in their hands, and they walked without the slightest noise, only the sound of the horses' hooves landing on the ground and stomping.

As soon as the black-clothed heavy cavalry appeared, even if the people who came to watch the ceremony were still talking about it to shut up, it also made Zhang Chao, including the Wenchen generals on the stage, stand up independently, because they felt a powerful murderous aura coming towards them, this is a real army of a hundred battles, and it is still the strongest elite who have not been defeated.

From the appearance of the black-clothed heavy rider to the front of the viewing platform, it was like a hurricane, which made people involuntarily feel creepy, and only Zhang Chao, who was standing in the center of the stage, felt different, he saw a kind of confidence, a desire, a kind of respect on the faces of these heavy riders trained by his own hands, which was a family-like feeling, which also made Zhang Chao proud.

Following the Zhangjia heavy ride, it appeared in the Zhangjia light ride.

As soon as the cavalry of 3,000 people appeared, it also caused bursts of admiration from those who watched.

The common people were naturally proud to see such a majestic and mighty cavalry, this was the army that protected them, and with the presence of these people, they could free their hands and feet to create the fruits of their labor with their hands, without worrying that someone else could snatch everything they had worked hard for.

Without worries, they can work wholeheartedly and create greater value.

When the civil and military officers on the viewing platform saw these cavalry walking by, they also felt a sense of pride in their hearts. This is their army, which can ensure that they are invincible and invincible, and can ensure that they will have a better life in the future and can create more brilliant achievements.

The people in Zhang Chao's camp felt the pride, and Tian Feng really felt a burst of coolness when he stood on the stage.

Walking in the streets and alleys of Jinyang City before, he was shocked by the living conditions of the people here.

The freedom and openness of the market, the variety of life, and the most sincere smile on the face of the common people are completely like a peaceful and prosperous era. Walking here, it is hard to imagine that this is still a war era.

The life of the people of Jinyang City is enough for Tian Feng to yearn for and envy, and he even thinks that if Zhang Chao can really love the people like a son, and he can bring the people such a life wherever he goes, it may be a good thing for him to win the world.

It's just that such an idea just passed in his mind, and Tian Feng didn't think that Zhang Chao had such strength. If you manage well and treat the people well, you can win the world without proof. After all, if you want to become the lord of the world, you need many, many factors, the most important of which is that the military must be strong enough.

It's not like you can get it by talking about it, you have to fight with real knives and guns to grab it.

I just thought that Zhang Chao, who started with poetry, had a set of management for himself, but when he saw the appearance of Zhang Jiazhong and light cavalry, he didn't dare to think about it anymore. Tian Feng also finally knew why Zhang Chaohui led all the regimes in Bingzhou in just over a year after coming to Bingzhou, took Hedong, and wiped out the Black Mountain Army. They really have such military strength.

If Zhang Chao is allowed to develop like this, it will definitely threaten the safety of the lord Yuan Shao. And for the sake of safety, is it necessary to remind Yuan Benchu after going back this time, let him be careful to watch out for Zhang Chao, and even use troops early?

For people who have the heart of a tiger and a wolf, they can't be given the slightest chance to develop, otherwise they will eventually be troubled by raising tigers.

"Brother Yuan Hao, what do you think of my army?" When Tian Feng's face was still undergoing a drastic change, Zhang Chao came to his side unexpectedly.

"Ahh It's good, it's powerful. Tian Feng had a ghost in his heart at this time, and when Zhang Chao asked him, his face changed dramatically. After all, you are thinking about killing someone, and that person comes to you, how can you not be surprised?

Regarding Tian Feng's unnatural performance, Zhang Chao smiled as if he had never seen it: "Brother Yuan Hao, do you know why I allowed you to come to watch the ceremony and show you my strength?" ”

"Ahh This, I don't know. Tian Feng replied honestly.

"Hehe, then you'll tell you. I admire you very much, and I hope you will help me like nectar in a long drought. I don't want to hide anything from you. Zhang Chao was serious.

Hearing these words in Tian Feng's ears, he couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.

For Zhang Chao to appreciate himself, Tian Feng can feel it, but this is the first time he has heard it with his own ears.

Zhang Chao looked at Tian Feng with a surprised expression, and sighed heavily: "Of course, I know that you are now serving Yuan Benchu and are loyal to your duties, and you will never come to help me immediately." It's just that I can wait, I believe that Yuan Shao is not the master, and I also believe that you will be disappointed one day. If it really comes to that time, welcome Brother Yuan Hao to come to Bingzhou, then my Zhang Chao's door will be open for you at any time, and then our monarch can really create a great cause with one heart, I look forward to that day. ”

After saying this, Zhang Chao patted Tian Feng on the shoulder again and said: "Okay, the parade is still going on, you can continue to watch, as for how to talk to Yuan Benchu when you go back, then it's up to you." ”

"No, there are some things I won't talk about." Tian Feng hurriedly reassured. He knew he had to say something about it. Otherwise, it will cause killing intent, and that is because you don't know the times.

"Haha." Listening to Tian Feng's assurance, Zhang Chao smiled again and said, "I believe in you." ”

When Tian Feng was still in a state of mind, the military parade below was still going on. Following the heavy cavalry and light cavalry of the Zhang family, what appeared was Zhao Yun's dragon and tiger army cavalry, and the cavalry and infantry of the first army of Jinyang City.

500 infantry representatives in Hedong, 500 infantry representatives in Huguan, 500 infantry representatives in Yanmen County...

Through the military parade ceremony, the military prestige of Zhang Chao's group was shown, and at the same time, the people's confidence was reassured, and the status of the army was virtually improved. After seeing these powerful troops walking through the parade ground, many people who came to watch the ceremony had the same thought, that is, to ask their relatives and children to become soldiers, so that they could become powerful members of the army, so that the fruits of their labor could be better protected.

This is also the real intention of Zhang Chao's military parade.

Showing military prestige is one aspect, cheering everyone up is the second aspect, and arousing the hearts of the whole people to join the army is the third aspect.

Now it seems that the effect is still very good. In fact, since the military parade, the number of people who have signed up to join the army has increased a lot, and there are even some men who are not yet 16 years old who have to sign up for the army, and when they are told that they still need to go back and wait for the age to join the army, many people are disappointed.
