Chapter 535: Kicking Off

Zhu Youxiao took Huang Xiao and Zhang Yan back to Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Youxiao said to Huang Xiao: "Brother Xian, it's been so long now, and there is no news from Wei Daban and them, and I don't know what the situation is?" They're too ineffective! ”

Huang Xiao smiled: "The capital has a large population, since this Yang Fan is specially arranged by the traitor, it will definitely disappear, or even destroy the corpse, it is not easy to find clues among millions of people!" However, I believe that there will be gains, and there is no need for the eldest brother to be anxious. ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded, "Okay, let's wait for good news!"

Brother Xian, Baozhu, the time is almost up, let's get ready, let's go! ”

Huang Xiao smiled and nodded.

Zhu Youxiao said to Zhang Yan again: "On the way to the celebration for a while, Baozhu will go back to the house first and preside over the relevant matters of the virtuous brother's wedding. ”

Zhang Yan responded.

At ten o'clock, on the square in front of Chengtianmen, there were already eight strong teams, each with a number of 1,000 people, listed as eight phalanxes!

Behind them, more than 100 Shenwei cannons were towed by horses.

The line stretched for miles.

On the opposite side of Chengtianmen is a phalanx mainly composed of officials' families, plus the people of the capital who have been audited and put in to watch the ceremony, as well as outstanding representatives at all levels of Dahuangzhuang, as well as Mongolian leaders and their families, Jurchen representatives, and Ryukyu envoys, a total of about 20,000 people.

And the officials, nobles, and clan relatives are neatly lined up in front of the Chengtian Gate,

On the left side of the square in front of Chengtianmen, in front of the flag-raising platform that was urgently built, hundreds of Dahuangzhuang students lined up, wearing uniform uniforms, facing the rising sun, standing neatly.

The students led by him are slightly older, and they are more than 20 students such as Fang Yizhi, Zuo Maodi, Zhu Youzhen, and Mao Xiang.

Standing in front of the phalanx of the team, looking at the mighty and majestic formation, Zhu Youzhen couldn't help but feel a sense of pride.

He didn't expect that he would be able to participate in this grand event, and had the honor to sing the Ming National Anthem in person, and a sense of pride filled his chest!

And in the team, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng, Li Guo, Zhao Xichu, and Lin Jianhua were also extremely shocked in their hearts, they came from humble backgrounds, but now they are at the center of power in the world! And I was fortunate to participate in the ceremony, and this honor and gratitude can be imagined.

Among these five people, Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng's uncle and nephew trembled with excitement because of other glory.

Among all the people present, there were many people who were as excited as the three of them, but when the time came, they all secretly suppressed the excitement in their hearts and waited for the glory of that moment!

And the Mongolian tribes, the Jurchen tribe, looking at the military array of spears and steel cannons, were all shocked in their hearts, and they were also glad to abandon the darkness and turn to the light in time, otherwise, against a strong army like the Ming Dynasty, it would really be a place to die!

In the team, the Ryukyu envoy picture that was finally released was extremely shocked when he looked at everything in front of him!

In their impression, no, on the way to Beijing every year, the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty they saw were all lifeless and extremely lax!

In their hearts, they have long felt that they can be small and big!

I have to say that the extreme idea of gambling on the fortunes of the country has been around for a long time.

The envoys felt that the expedition to the Ming Dynasty was not a problem, and they also secretly reported this situation to the shogunate, and it is reported that the shogun attached great importance to it and was also discussing this possibility!

However, today, the eight strong teams on the school field and more than 100 artillery pieces have completely subverted their cognition.

No, this news must be passed on to the shogunate as soon as possible!

Saburo Watanabe, whose pseudonym is Fan Youjing, is a samurai under the command of the Shimazu clan of the Satsuma Domain, Hisashi Kayama!

The Satsuma Domain, officially known as the Kagoshima Domain, was a feudal domain of Japan during the Edo period, in the southwestern part of Kyushu, Japan.

During the Edo period, they controlled the Satsuma Province, the Osumi Province, and some Hyuga provinces, and the Ryukyu Kingdom, which included all of present-day Kagoshima Prefecture (including the Amami Islands of the Ryukyu Kingdom) and the southwestern part of Miyazaki Prefecture.

1587 (the 15th year of Wanli) was an extremely important year, and the famous historian Huang Renyu called it a turning point in the Ming Dynasty.

In the same year, Toyotomi Hideyoshi pacified Kyushu, and the Satsuma Kingdom was reduced to the Satsuma Domain.

Japan also ended the Warring States Rebellion and achieved great unification, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi established the shogunate system.

More than a decade later, Tokugawa Ieyasu was defeated and the Toyotomi clan was destroyed, and Japan entered the shogunate period, which ushered in an era of peace for more than 260 years.

Of course, this peace refers specifically to Japan, but at this time, Japan's national strength was gradually increasing, and it also began to expand externally.

At the time of the Battle of Sekigahara, although the Shimazu family of the Satsuma Domain was in the Western Army and should have been on the side of liquidation after the war, Tokugawa Ieyasu was afraid of the strong combat effectiveness of the Shimazu Army under the command of Shimazu Yoshihiro.

On the one hand, respecting such a relatively powerful opponent basically maintained the original status of the Shimazu Domain, which also made the Satsuma Domain a powerful domain on a par with Date and Maeda in addition to the Tokugawa family.

In 1609, 16 years earlier, the Satsuma clan sent Kayama Hisadaka to invade the Ryukyu Kingdom, and after the defeat of the Ryukyu Kingdom, King Shōnin and his prince were captured and placed under house arrest.

At that time, Watanabe Saburo was a samurai under the master of Birshan, because of his outstanding military achievements, he was quite appreciated by Birshan, and he was proficient in the Ming dialect.

This tribute, I don't know what went wrong, resulting in this group of envoys being strictly guarded by the Ming Dynasty and unable to communicate with the outside world, which made Watanabe Saburo extremely worried, he was worried that the affairs of the Ryukyus were fully known by the Ming Dynasty, and when the time came, what was waiting for them as an envoy would be death!

However, today they were notified to participate in the Ming military parade, which made Saburo Watanabe relieved.

At the scene, the more he looked at these soldiers, the more frightened he became, and finally, a cold sweat unconsciously broke out on his forehead.

Of course, maybe it's a rare good weather today, under the warm sun, it's already warm, plus the crowd is crowded, and sweating is also possible.

Saburo Watanabe looked around covertly, and suddenly his heart sank to the bottom again.

He was shocked to notice that around the mission, there were faintly hundreds of strong people in a state of encirclement, surrounding the mission in the heart, Watanabe Saburo has been in the army for a long time, his eyes are vicious, just one glance, he noticed that these people must be from the army, and they are soldiers in the army!

At this moment, two beautiful strange objects slowly drove from the smooth street and headed straight for Chengtianmen.

There was an earth-shattering exclamation from the crowd.

Saburo Watanabe, his eyeballs are about to bulge!

As the car got closer and closer, Saburo Watanabe's eyes widened and he crossed his feet so that he could see clearly through the crowd in front of him.

I saw that the two cars should be the things of the car, the whole body was pitch black, and under the sunlight, it reflected a bright luster.

At the front of the car, there is a red protrusion, which seems to be inlaid with a red gem!

In front of the front of the car, there is a bright sun and moon dragon flag hanging on both sides, and as the car slowly drives, the flag hunts in the wind.

The unique shape and fine workmanship of this car amaze Saburo Watanabe!

What shocked him even more was that there seemed to be only one person in the car, and there was no cow or horse in front of the traction, but it could move forward on its own!

It's a fetish!

Oh, my God! Could this be the Divine Beast Mount of the Great Tomorrow?

Like Saburo Watanabe, many people who saw this car for the first time at the scene were also stunned!
