Chapter 446 The First Military Parade(2/2)

This great Zhou Dynasty looks prosperous, but it is a Yun brocade dress full of lice holes.

In order to let his father have a happy birthday, he planned to wait until after the Longevity Festival before giving the list to his father for review.

How to deal with these people should be discussed with the father.

In this way, the burning of the shipyard came to an end for the time being, and Li Zhao arrived in the capital the night before the Wanshou Festival.

I climbed into bed again in the middle of the night, and the little beauty I hadn't seen for more than half a month was lying quietly in front of me with her back to me. Thinking of that fragrant and soft body, I felt my heart beating wildly.

, as if falling into the warm current of spring, floating up and down, as if drowning in it for a lifetime is the bliss of the world.

With all the dirty thoughts in his mind, he stretched out his paws to do something to the sleeping beauty. In the blink of an eye, he saw a chubby little piglet being held in his arms by his wife, who was still awake in the middle of the night.

Father and son looked at each other, big eyes and small eyes.

Li Zhao put on an angry expression, and the little guy immediately closed his eyes and buried his face in his mother's arms, not looking at his father.

Tsk!

This annoying little brat!

——

On the day of the Wanshou Festival, celebrations will be held in all cities of Zhou Dynasty, and the capital is even more lively as if it is a Chinese New Year.

Large colorful lanterns were hung on every household, both sides of the Royal Street were filled with flowers of various colors, and five-color silks and satins were hung on the eaves of the streets. Everyone looked cheerful.

Vendors from all over the country rushed to the capital to do business, and theater troupes and juggling troupes also used their special skills to reward the money.

On the street, the sounds of hawking, horse bells, footsteps, noises, and cheers come and go.

A stage was set up in the square where people were killed at Caishikou.

Today we will not perform the well-known play, but the story of how the Tatars rampaged across the Central Plains, burning, killing, and looting, and how the border officers drove them out of the Great Wall.

In a square located at the south gate of the imperial city, the story of how Japanese pirates burned, killed, looted, and raped women in the eastern coastal area was staged, and how they were finally chased away by the navy led by the current emperor.

This matter is still under the supervision of the inner palace. For these two stage plays, young Eunuch Tan even made models of cannons, muskets and craft ships.

The performances without physical objects in traditional dramas are certainly wonderful, but with the addition of props, the performances are more lively and lively for the people to watch.

After the singing, there will be a military parade.

However, this time the military parade was not held at the military camp outside the city, but according to Song Qingyue's suggestion, it was held at the Royal Street.

The entire team is composed of several square formations, namely the cavalry square formation, the infantry square formation of the Beijing Camp, the navy square formation of the Beiyang Navy, the Jinyiwei square formation, then the musketry square formation of the firearms battalion, and finally the artillery square.

The finale of the array.

There are drummers at the front, middle and back of the team who are vigorously and rhythmically beating the war drums.

A group of princes and princes accompanied the emperor, the queen and a dozen high-ranking harem concubines standing on the palace wall, waiting to see the phalanxes coming from the Royal Street.

In order to make it more lively, prestigious noble families in the capital, as well as civil servants of the third or higher rank in the court, were allowed to bring small benches to the palace wall to watch the military parade with the emperor.

From the moment they heard the sound of drums, everyone on the palace wall began to get excited.

Li Zhao held the child and stayed with his father. All three generations of his family had their eyes wide open and full of anticipation. Only Song Qingyue was the one who resisted the waves of sleepiness and looked like she was lacking in interest.

At the end of the day, Li Zhao is just a beast! His son is still here, so he is causing chaos.

And the scale of today's military parade is like playing house compared to previous National Day military parades.

Because the preparations were hasty and the pace was not neat enough, the last thirty or so cannons pulled by vehicles were more crudely called than the armored vehicles, Dongfeng Global Express, various radars, tanks, and anti-missile systems in the previous life.

People are no longer interested.

Ah, it's a pity that I don't know music, otherwise I would have figured out a march.

A military parade without Radesky and Steel Torrent would be boring. Song Qingyue was probably the only one in the capital who thought so.

Those soldiers who were selected to participate in the Longevity Day military parade were even more excited!

Song Qingyue was worried that the common people were afraid of the soldiers, so she specially arranged in advance to meet the veterans in the alley and come over to act as cheering extras.

Someone took the lead, and the atmosphere immediately rose.

Coupled with the previous dramatic foreshadowing, wherever they went, they were enthusiastically cheered by the people.

Even if their movements were not so neat, everyone held their chests high, their chins raised, and their hearts were filled with an unprecedented sense of pride!

Seeing the soldiers' high spirits, the emperor stood up excitedly, beating the drums and applauding.

Song Qingyue stood aside, laughing and applauding, "very good, very good, a complete success!"
Chapter completed!
