281 Military parade
An autumn rain and a cold, and a light rain last night completely pulled the temperature of Dawang City into late autumn. The single clothes are no longer useful, and now some people with weak physiques have already put on cotton clothes.
Although the weather is very cold, the hearts of the people in Dawangcheng are not cold, although it rained cold overnight, but the people of the city have already gotten up early in the morning, as long as they walk, they have run to the street to grab a place.
It's not just the people in the city who have moved, long before the sun rises, the people of the four miles and eight towns have begun to gather in Dawang City, and by the time the west shows the white of the fish's belly, nearly 200,000 people have gathered outside Dawang City.
There were no longer so many people in the city, and a large number of people could only crowd outside the city, waiting there in the cold after the rain.
Peishui people are very rich, and Peishui people have also seen the world, so it is said that general things will never stir up the enthusiasm in the hearts of these people. But today is different, today is a military parade, Liuhuo and Shi Meng, Hou Wen are about to leave Dawang City, 80,000 coalition troops are finally going north, this is the largest military operation in the history of Peishui, how can the people not be excited?
The belligerence of the Peishui people is well-known in the whole Chu country, and it is estimated that except for the giants of the vast mountains in the entire Zhongzhou continent, the people of no region will be so warlike, not even the red-scaled people on the grassland.
Countless outsiders don't understand this peculiar character of the Peishui people, originally this is the extremely wealthy area of the Chu State, the people here can earn several times the income of other regions by doing anything, it is said that the rich people are sparing their lives, how can they be so warlike?
As long as adult men try their best to squeeze into the militia group, and when they enter the militia and want to drill into the Black Iron Legion, no one has considered that they will die if they fight.
There are also women in Peishui, which is even more strange, the women here are proud of men to be soldiers, and they all desperately encourage their men to serve in the military camp.
There are even children, these children who have received free education by Drift Fire are simply a group of murderers, who have already been organized by the school at the age of five or six to become some kind of boy scouts.
To say that this boy scout is really alternative enough, even girls are accepted here, and in the high-intensity training, there are really many seedlings of awakened people and swordsmen who have been discovered.
In the past ten years, the fire has turned both sides of Peishui into a huge barracks, from men to women, from old to young, all the people of Peishui have been involved in this extremely martial trend.
Outsiders don't understand, but Peishui people understand, especially Peishui people who have experienced a night of blood and fire, they all understand this truth, only themselves can protect themselves in this world, and expect others to be empty forever.
Today, Lord Liuhuo's army is going on a northern expedition, and he wants to show the strength of the Peishui people to Zhongzhou Mountain and Tiandu City, and Lord Liuhuo will fight with the enemy of life and death in the Tiandu Plain.
The Li family and the Yu family, these two are the executioners behind the Peishui tragedy, and today they will finally have an explanation. Don't think that ten years of black prison can change the water and the people can dissipate their anger.
No one should forget that 70,000 soldiers and civilians died here that night.
There is a fire in everyone's heart, and that is the fury of vengeance. With this fire, the people of Peishui could wait for a night in the cold night of ice and rain, and with this fire, the people of Peishui were able to buy an IOU of 25 million gold coins in ten days. With this fire, the Black Iron Legion's battle petition written in blood filled the three major wagons, and with this fire, 100,000 people were actually blocked outside the barracks to be volunteers.
Now that the army of flowing fire is finally about to go on the march, how can the people of Peishui not come to see them off.
Military parades are the tradition of the Black Iron Legion, as long as the Black Iron Legion goes out to fight, a grand military parade will be held in the Great King City, the larger the scale of the war, the larger the scale of the parade. This time, it was a full 80,000 elites, and this was already the largest battle that Peishui people could imagine.
If you don't watch this drama, I'm afraid that you will regret it for a lifetime.
Not only Peishui people love to watch the excitement, but also outsiders love to watch the excitement, especially those merchants who come to Dawangcheng to do business. These wealthy merchants had already greeted the government, and everyone paid a high price to buy a best viewing position on the walls of the Great King City, and sent people to arrange it early.
Rich people are good, these people's stands are located next to the stands of Peishui Wenwu, and they can get closer to the officials while parading, and the money is not unjustly spent.
The sky is getting brighter and brighter, the four gates of Dawang City have all been opened, the drawbridge has been lowered, and there are already people everywhere in and outside the city, except for the main road intercepted by the militia group holding hands.
The air is full of the smell of women's rouge and men's sweat, and it is clear that it is already the solar term of winter, but the crowd is so surging, it actually feels like midsummer.
Everywhere there was the sound of excited chatter, the sound was indistinguishable, and only a buzz could be heard from afar.
The wealthy merchants on the city wall can be regarded as eye-opening, although they have seen a lot of the world in the north and south, but it is the first time they have seen such a big scene as today.
"Oh, why do I look more prosperous than Tiandu City, the people here are just a few days away, why are they all pouring out to see the excitement?" The person who said this was obviously a first-time visitor to Peishui.
"Hey, you don't understand this, the most interesting thing about this Peishui is the military parade, if you come to Peishui, if you can watch a military parade of the Black Iron Legion, even if you don't make money, you will be content..."
"Oh man, have you seen that?"
"Haha, I'm lucky, I just saw a military parade at the beginning of this year, and it was Lord Flowing Fire personally leading a team to crusade against the rebellion of Mustang City... Tsk, that scene just makes your blood burn all over your body..."
The experienced guys had excited expressions on their faces, as if they were back to the military parade in the spring.
Their conversation aroused the interest of the wealthy businessmen in the surrounding area, and many of them began to spoil it.
"You don't know, this military parade is different from Kaichun, when only 3,000 soldiers crossed the city, and today it is a full 80,000 coalition troops, you can see it once, and your ancestors burned high incense..."
"That's right, the parade of the 80,000 army, we will probably see it once in our lives. Last night, everyone hurriedly paid for a good position, and some people were still reluctant. Damn, you're waiting for them to regret it tonight..."
Just when people were talking, suddenly in the wilderness outside the west gate of the city, among the chaotic crowds of people, suddenly burst into a sound like thunder.
"It's moving, the army is moving, the parade has begun...."
This sentence rolled through the crowd like rolling thunder, and countless people repeated this sentence, and in just an instant, the entire Dawang City boiled, and everyone shouted a word.
"The army, our army ..."
It moved, it did, and the army to the west was still faintly a dark shadow, but the tremor of the earth had already been heard. This is the rhythm of tens of thousands of people stepping out of the rhythm.
Gradually, in the west of the Great King City, the coalition army that had long been ready to attack finally appeared in front of the eyes of the people.
At the front of the march, a carefully selected coalition of 9,000 troops, each with 3,000 men, formed the vanguard of the Grand King's City. This is an army composed purely of infantry, a total of six rows, the middle two rows are Peishui's Black Iron Legion, the two rows on the left are the Hou family's Blizzard internal guards, and the right is the Shi family's hunters.
These are three carefully selected veterans of a hundred battles, and they are wearing the most brand-new armor all over their bodies, especially the Black Iron Legion in the center, which is actually the latest improved black iron armor, and it is actually an improved armor cast by the process brought back from the Labyrinth of the God of War by flowing fire.
Black is always the most oppressive eye color for human beings, especially when black and steel armor are combined, the visual impact is even more difficult to look at.
Not only the Black Iron Legion, but also a silver-white Blizzard internal guard next to it, although the Hou family is much poorer than Liuhuo now, it is also a century-old family, and the background in it is still profound.
Next to the bright black and white colors, there is the variegated armor of the hunters, these veterans who have fought in the vast mountains for a hundred years, know that variegation is the best protective color, and their armor has been painted into black, gray and green three variegated colors. Although it looks a little messy on its own, once these armors are gathered into a military formation, then the shock he brings is no less than black and white.
The army marched in unison, crushing from the west as a whole. Yes, everyone has this feeling, this army with no end in sight is not coming over at all, he is just crushed by mere mesh.
The three families selected are all the elite of the elite, many of the veterans sent by the Flowing Fire are veterans who have suffered the Peishui tragedy, as well as the elites who have fought in Wild Horse City, and the Shi family and the Hou family are even more amazing, they actually sent an army composed of pure sword masters, and they are veterans who have been in battle for a long time.
These 'murderous' coalition forces will not restrain their momentum at all, and their cold eyes that ignore everything cooperate with their fierce bodies, forming a torrent of steel and heading straight for the West Gate.
The people outside the city were already the first to go crazy, and these people stretched out their hands one after another, eager to touch the soldiers' bodies, and many of them were already in tears, and there was only one voice in their mouths.
"The army, our army ..."
The vigilante groups responsible for maintaining order have been staggered, but fortunately there has been no chaos and the wall of people holding hands has not collapsed.
"Folks, stand back, it's dangerous to squeeze any more... Stand back, stand back..."
The people standing on the ground, who could only see a corner of the military formation, were already too excited to help themselves. Now the big men on the city wall have completely lost their voices, and they have even forgotten to exclaim.
What a spectacle it was, the vanguard had reached the gates, and the far west was still pouring in like a tide, black and oppressive on the earth.
The wealthy businessman from other places who had no knowledge climbed on the female wall and stared at the military formation under the city wall, his mouth was not closed at all, and he didn't know that it was the soldier, so he suddenly glanced at him with sharp eyes.
At this moment, the merchant fell from the city wall, but fortunately the people around him grabbed him, so there was no accident.
"Murderous, so murderous..."The frightened rich businessman only had this sentence in his mouth.
Just when he was sweating, the vanguard finally entered the city, and the Great King City was already completely boiling.
