Dongguan Bo He Zhen stood on the cabin, in addition to the Zhang Zi Flag of the Navigation Hou Zhang He behind him, there was also the He Zi Flag of the He Family, and the highest floating was a five-clawed red dragon flag!

This is also the reason why Zhao Yong's eyes are shrinking.

In fact, since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, although Zhu Yuanzhang's meritorious military generals group has been extremely supportive of him, in fact, all the princes and marquis have been military leaders one after another, and their soldiers have only served the generals who pay their own salaries.

The Ming Dynasty was enveloped by giving these army leaders and generals land and making them princes, and at the same time using civilian officials to collect taxes, rents, and grain to support the military generals.

He Zhen smiled lightly and arched his hand to the navigation marquis Zhang He: "Master Hou, do you want to let the boat go over first, and inform the Marquis of Nanxiong to arrange the troops and horses, and prepare to raise the national flag and sing the national anthem?" ”

He Zhen said that the process of "raising the national flag and singing the national anthem" was determined by Zhu Yuanzhang, and now according to the latest army welcome method arranged by the Ministry of Rites, all the soldiers of the military guards in various places must raise the national flag and play the national anthem and salute the national flag.

The navigation marquis Zhang He is naturally also important in this matter, for the Nanxiong Marquis Zhao Yong, Zhang He is also an old acquaintance, he has led the army many times in Fujian Liangguang and other places to kill the Japanese invaders, and also personally led the team to the Ryukyu Island, the collusion with the Ryukyu Zhongshan King captured, for the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute.

During this period, the ban on the Daming Sea was very strict, but the tribute to the surrounding countries was very relaxed, and many surrounding maritime island countries came to pay tribute, and the Daming City Bosi bought various commodities such as spices and pepper from them, and sold them at a monopoly high price.

Zhang He laughed and said: "Haha, what Uncle Dongguan said is, where are the heralds?" ”

"Quickly release the boat to the shore to negotiate, rehearse the honor guard, prepare to raise the national flag and play the national anthem, the undefeated commander of the National Security Division has an explanation, I and other troops who have been trained in Yingtian, we want to spread this etiquette and set a benchmark for the border troops in various places, you and others give me spiritual points one by one, the waist pole is straight, and the throat and eyes are open when singing!"

There are herald soldiers, holding flags and waving them, the flag communication of the Ming Dynasty has been very mature, and there are gongs and drums as auxiliary, and now some microphones similar to horns have been added to transmit sounds.

Soon, the ship sailed into the harbor.

Zhao Yong and the others looked at it here......

The sailing Hou Zhang He and the soldiers of Dongguan Bo He Zhen are wearing unified new military uniforms, mostly made of cotton, which are more lightweight, and the color is also suitable for the environment, light black, dark green.

Hundreds of households, thousands of households, and the military uniforms of the inspection school will be lined with iron armor and ceramic pieces to prevent arrows and firecrackers.

Because there are fewer iron pieces of iron for the iron armor needed by the officers, even some officers and guards have iron and ceramic plates added to the chest and abdomen in the military uniforms.

Porcelain tiles are not precious and can be fired widely on a large scale.

And the protection of the ceramic piece is not low, the fire gun projectile of this era is not strong in terms of rate of fire and power, and the multi-layer ceramic piece can not only protect the fire gun, but also the arrows of the Mongolian bow.

The military hat is also different from the previous Mongolian helmet, or turban, but some cauldron lid-like military hats, although it is a little heavier, but the protective performance has actually increased greatly, there are two kinds of materials, the officer's iron hat, and the ordinary soldier is made of ceramic.

These military caps and helmets not only have changed in material, but also have a more beautiful appearance.

The ceramic military helmets worn by the soldiers are made of rattan hemp rope and wrapped in scale-like porcelain pieces one by one, which looks majestic and beautiful in appearance.

At the top of the military helmet, there is also a pheasant feather inserted.

It has both the demeanor of the Han and Tang dynasties, and the majesty of the Ming Dynasty.

It is a pity that one of the shortcomings of this military hat made of ceramic pieces is that it is unbearable to wear it, and many soldiers do not care about their parents, so they directly shave their heads into short hair, and the officers also acquiesce in this behavior.

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the common people were not bound by some customs, and this era was in a stage of changing customs and changing back to the old system of the Han and Tang dynasties.

Although the Ming Dynasty has been founded for 15 years, in some relatively remote places, there are still ordinary people who retain the customs of Mengyuan and whip their hair, so these changes in the military have not caused much resistance in the army.

The only thing the soldiers didn't like was that the ladies of the Qinglou thought they were dressed as monks......

As the sea ship docked at the edge of the harbor, the personal soldiers of the navigation Hou Zhang He and Dongguan Bo He Zhen lined up neatly, and walked down from the station boat in unison, with bright armor and pheasant feathers.

Zhao Yong couldn't help but look at the guards beside him.

In this day and age, it is still difficult to equip most soldiers with military uniforms.

Even if Zhao Yong is the Marquis of Nanxiong, the highest military governor of the Ming Dynasty in the Fujian region of Guangdong, he can only guarantee that two or three thousand of his relatives can wear uniform uniforms, and they are not the same as the old and the new......

The armor and armor are also Yuan and Ming systems, some inspection schools still wear paper armor, and some Fujian rattan soldiers wear rattan armor.

Glancing at the new-style military uniforms of the navigator Zhang He and Dongguan Bo He Zhen, Zhao Yong couldn't help but feel a sourness.

Sure enough, the soldiers who came from Beijing were more favored than our border marquis who lived in Lingnan.

"Marquis Nanxiong, don't come unharmed!?"

Navigation Marquis Zhang He took the lead, bowed his hand to say hello, he repeatedly went to and from Fujian and Guangdong to transport grain and grass, and transported these grain and grass to Beiping by sea, so he had a close relationship with Nanxiong Marquis Zhao Yong, the two of them had a little greeting, Dongguan Bo He Zhen, He Zhen's son He Gui, also came to greet.

I have seen local officials, lieutenant officials of the city department, etc., but Zhang He and He Zhen were not in a hurry to go to the banquet arranged by Zhao Yong, but stood in place and looked behind them.

A big monk in a black robe, accompanied by several brocade-clothed guards, walked out with a warm smile.

He did not hold the Buddhist ceremony, but worshiped everyone with secular etiquette, and then the brocade guard school behind him came out with a holy decree holding an incense case, and the black-robed monk's tiger face changed, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Nanxiong Marquis Zhao Yong took the order!" ”

Zhao Yong hurriedly knelt down to accept the order.

The black-robed monk picked up the holy decree and read it aloud: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict says: Zhao Yong, the Marquis of Nanxiong, has meritorious service in the south, and the reward is 500 taels of platinum, 1,000 ingots of treasure money, and the mansion is ...... Today's southeast affairs are mainly appeased, Guangdong's rich local tyrants, luxury people, filial piety and power, tax talents, can be used to the fullest, Dongguan Bo He Zhen, Zhennanwei commander He Gui, Guangdong, Fujian all over the division to assist, Qin this. ”

After Zhao Yong took the holy decree, the black-robed monk smiled and saluted: "Nanxiong Hou is polite, the poor monk is Yao Guangxiao, the commander of the Guangdong Wei of the Ming National Security Division, this time with the Navigation Marquis and Dongguan Bo, one is to transport new military weapons for Nanxiong Marquis, and the other is to assist in the relocation of local tyrants, and please take care of Nanxiong Marquis." ”

Zhao Yong originally handed the holy decree to his relatives with an expressionless face, and asked them to accept it, but when he heard that Yao Guangxiao was here to send weapons and equipment, his face suddenly changed to joy,

He laughed and said: "I said that today's happy bird called Qin, it turned out that the angel came to bring the holy gift, Yao commanded, Ben Hou has prepared a banquet, and please feast." ”

"Hey, Marquis Nanxiong is not in a hurry, we will raise the national flag first and play the national anthem."

Yao Guangxiao signaled to the Jinyiwei Colonel behind him, and the Jinyiwei people who had already practiced countless times, and held up a five-clawed red dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty, and someone took a bamboo pole equipped with pulleys, three or four feet high, and several people stood the bamboo pole at the highest place on the pier, picked up the rope of the national flag, and prepared to raise the flag.

There were also the personal guards of the navigation Hou Zhang He and Dongguan Bo He Zhen, and began to help line up.

Zhao Yong also hurriedly let his subordinates line up.

"Raise the national flag and play the national anthem!"

There is a small colonel of Jinyiwei, holding a shouting microphone and shouting loudly, under the leadership of several Jinyi guards, driven by the personal guards of the navigation Hou Zhang He and Dongguan Bo He Zhen, tens of thousands of Ming soldiers, lined up by the harbor, looking at the raised, not high Ming five-clawed red dragon flag, and sang the national anthem.

"Every day shows me that I am bright, and the territory is 100,000 miles!"

"Inherit the Huaxia Chao Han and Tang Dynasties, and the country will be the Northern Yuan!"

"Mountains and rivers are dying, and I will not forget my homeland!"

"Iron Horse comrades condense their battle suits, forward forward forward forward!"

"The responsibility for revival lies with our generation, the sun and the moon are the same!"

Many soldiers did not understand the meaning of the national anthem, and they could not even sing it, so they could only shout along with it, which was slightly noisy.

The flagpole of the national flag is not tall, the Jinyi Wei Colonel who raised the national flag is still a little in a hurry, after the national flag is finally raised, it hunts in the sea breeze, and the five-clawed red dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty is majestic, whirring.

The warriors looked at this national flag, and they all had a few feelings in their hearts, this is our Ming Dynasty's veteran of a hundred battles, poured it with blood.

Even Zhao Yong, who sang along, felt a trace of emotion rise in his heart.

Yes, I still have hundreds of thousands of miles of homeland in the Ming Dynasty......
