Showing off force in front of everyone is what the Norman emperor wanted to do now. Unlike before, the current Norman Emperor decided to take a break and let his empire recuperate for a while after gaining considerable territory, room for development, prestige, and trade routes. And not to go on the offensive.

And want to give yourself a break. Egil has considered that the easiest way is to show his strength and make others fearful. And the way to show great strength, I have to say, the military parade is a pretty good idea.

Of course, a good military parade has something to do with its strong strength. But it's not the most useful. Even in the 21st world in the later generations, the country with the largest military parade in the world, the countries around him that are much weaker than him still dare to blatantly fight him. Not to mention the present, this information is underdeveloped in the eleventh century.

"So, it's just a means. Not the most important, nor is it a panacea. But since it is not too difficult to use, it does not cost much. It can also satisfy the complacency of the ruler. So do it a little bit, boost morale, and deter potential enemies...... There's nothing that can't be done. At the time, Egil thought so as he gave a fiery speech on horseback.

A total of 10,000 Norman soldiers were selected to participate in the parade. A large marble building with a round arch in the name of Krakow Gate, which was built in a large marble structure with a high height in the center of the city, similar in significance to the Arc de Triomphe and the Brandenburg Gate, was built as an important part of the parade. At the same time, it can add two happiness points to the people of the city, a little more loyalty, and five percent popular support.

In this way, at the front were the fat cavalry on light horses and fast horses, followed by the well-dressed knights with spears in their arms. After that, there were infantry phalanxes. Norman Infantry, Norman Assault Infantry, Norman Phalanx Infantry Longbowmen, Heavy Crossbowmen...... In the middle of these arrays was guarded by two hundred knights of the Guard, the emperor and empress of the Norman Empire.

Dressed in silver-white Absolute Guardian full-body plate armor, he straddled the blade that tore through life. Behind it is a silver-white white fox fur. With his golden hair, Emperor Egil looked noble and elegant, calm and confident. At the same time, beside him, Artoria, who was wearing jet-black armor and had a pale face, had a mediocre appearance. It was called by a group of jealous and crazy European royal nobles: It seems to be a marriage that forcibly brings the canary and the ugly duckling together.

Of course, the person in question, Egil, felt that feeling good was enough. Therefore, rumors such as His Majesty the Emperor's preferences are very strange spread quite quickly and widely. And this rumor, with the rumors of this and that between the Centaur Lord Printhia and Egil, became more and more confirmed.

But that's not much. It's forgiven for a big guy like Egil for having a little quirk. Because it's a big shot. It's strange if it's really the same as ordinary people. This could not stop the passionate women who were shouting frantically as if they were going crazy on the way Egil, throwing handkerchiefs, flowers, fruits, and even panties at Egil.

"I'll wipe it! Stop Yin!" Seeing that the overwhelming "hidden weapons" wanted to attack him himself, Egil's color changed at that time. At this time, although he could, he must not draw the long knife at his waist and chop all the mess into pieces after a single slash. So at this time, you have to rely on the guards. ...,

And the crazy actions of these girls and even young women also frightened the knights of the guard. If there was an assassin or something, a throwing knife or a bomb thrown at it, it would be a big fuss. Even though Egil was wearing strong enough armor, even though the Norman spies had checked the welcoming crowd a hundred times before the parade. But what if, what if it is?!

As a result, a group of guard knights who were angrily scolded by the girls as "incomprehensible amorous" and "terrible scenery" raised their shields high and protected Egil's whole person in the middle in all directions to block these chaotic things flying in the sky. And the magistrate of Krakow, who was in charge of public security, also sweated and mobilized manpower to block these overly enthusiastic aristocratic sisters. Although the aristocratic sisters were crazy, kicking and fighting, hissing and biting. But the guards still gritted their teeth and persevered. Finally, in the midst of the cries, Egil survived, and the paramere party passed through the danger zone.

"It's safe...... and go back and give you a raise. Egil breathed a sigh of relief, and then felt a foreign object on his head, and Artoria next to him looked at him unkindly.

“...... , whose bra is this?"

Fortunately, the shield of the knight of the guard has not been lowered for a while. So no one sees Egil's current embarrassment~ except for Artoria. Of course, she would never go outside to publicize it.

"Why don't you take it off quickly!!!" Artoria said quietly, angrily.

"Hehehe" ,..." Egil laughed awkwardly as he took off his bra with a small cup and stuffed it into his armor.

"If you throw it on the ground, people will be suspicious. Despite Egil's explanation, he was still pinched a few times by Artoria. And the knights of the guards next to him all looked up at the sky, looking like "I didn't see anything".

Afterwards, at the end of the parade, in front of the Grand Palace in Krakow, where 100,000 people could be spectated, Egil ascended to the gatehouse of the palace, where he delivered an impassioned speech to his subjects, soldiers, and foreign envoys through a simple PA device. And throughout this speech, Egil mentioned the word the most was "peace." "This murderous monarch seems to have treated himself like a dove of peace. Vigorously promote the concept of peace. At the same time, I would like to conclude with the following words:

"From now on, the Christian nations of continental Europe will be like brothers. No more swords!" Egil ended with a lie that was destined not to come true, and that no child would believe. There were bursts of cheers. And the envoys of the surrounding European continents, the wiser, also fell into deep thought:

What is the plan of the crazy demon king who has caused the European continent to fall into a panic? Listening to the meaning of the other party, it seems that he does not want to start another war in the future. How is this possible? Whoever says such a thing in this world is at least a hundred times more credible than Egil. Everyone in Europe, even a newborn child, knows that the most war-loving person in the world is this emperor.

"Or is it a cover-up? Is the other party going to make any big moves next?" some people immediately thought. And immediately afterwards, there were some people who thought they were clever and linked this matter with the Norman Empire's dispatch of fleets to the New World and Atlantis.

"Do you want to send an army to conquer that country? Completely ignoring how difficult it is to expedition to the other continent on the other side of the globe. It's like you can do it if you want to...... And, of course, in a sense, in the history of another world, the continental countries that dared to think and dare to do things really succeeded ....... ...,

Egir didn't know for a moment that his impromptu speech had prompted the European countries to step up their efforts and desperately explore the New World. He made great contributions to the expansion of the Norman Empire's pirate business......

"Such an army ... , what a strong soldier. On the other side, still shocked by Egil's eyes, Hülegü, who couldn't move, didn't care for the time being, by Hülegü's side, Guo Kan sighed like this, this general from the Jin Han people is not like an ordinary Mongolian general. Advocating nature, self-restraint and tactics. The requirements for military discipline and neatness are also not so strict. Guo Kan, who was influenced by the traditional Chinese art of war, naturally understood what words such as arm and finger meant by good time.

He's a well-informed man. From the Far East, all the way to Persia, he also fought against the armies of many countries. But he had never seen such a neat army. That's right, neat, the Norman army impressed him the most, not the knights in fresh clothes and angry horses, the fierce warriors with long-handled battle axes. The ones with the strange iron pipes in their hands don't know what they are. It's "neat".

Neat attire, neatly ordnance, neatly arrayed...... , which looks quite impressive. It also allowed Guo Kan to revise the assessment of the strength of the Norman Empire again. And in the end, when a batch of twelve-pounder cannons drawn by four horses was pulled out, the atmosphere of the parade reached its best. Delicately carved with the words "The Emperor's Last Argument", these cannons were destined to be one of the most feared weapons of our time.

Of course, Guo Kan doesn't know these things. And when he asked the merchant leader and translator next to him, they, those Western barbarians shouted words such as "God's Curse", "Divine Fire", "Heavenly God Thunder", Guo Kan felt even more inexplicable.

"This may be some kind of weapon used by Xiyi. But what is it?" Guo Kan looked at these artillery carriages with kindness. But I can't figure it out, I can't think of it...... )
