In just ten minutes, the witchcraft celebration ceremony for the promotion ceremony of the great shaman in blue came to an end.
The little witch in red came to the stage holding a brand new dress of the great witch in blue, and squatted down to offer it to the witch of the Yu Gong clan. The little witch put the dress in the hands of the witch of the Yu Gong clan, and helped her put on the blue dress with her own hands.
Color cloak.
Xu Chen also handed over a golden scepter inlaid with seven gems to the Yugong clan witch.
The witch of the Yugong clan cried with joy as she held the new scepter that was heavily inlaid with gold and precious stones. She raised the scepter high with tears streaming down her face.
"Wuga~"
Seeing the witch of the Yugong clan who was wearing a blue cloak and holding a brand new scepter, thousands of people in the palace square squatted down and cheered in unison again, expressing their respect and awe for this newly promoted witch in blue.
Ever since she became the Great Wizard of the Gonghuo Clan and became the Great Wizard in Blue, she has been full of expectations for this title.
Over the years, she has been working hard, hoping that one day she can wear this blue cloak, which symbolizes the highest honor of the great witch.
Now, she finally got what she wanted.
Except for the little witch wearing a yellow dress and cloak, the rest of the witches were also full of envy of Yu Gongwu.
This blue cloak and new scepter symbolize a new identity and beginning.
Once he becomes the Great Witch in Blue, his status will be greatly improved, and his status among the witches and temples will also be unique. He is almost the third person in the entire country of Ba besides His Majesty the Witch King and the High Priest.
In other words, if His Majesty the Witch King and the Great Witch are not here, Witch Yu Gong can almost take charge of all the government affairs of Ba Kingdom in their stead.
Although this possibility is very small, Yu Gongwu's right to speak will also be greatly improved in the future handling of Pakistani government affairs and suggestions.
What's more, she currently has the status of the consul of the Yizheng Palace.
Although she does not work in the royal city most of the time, Gonghuo Wu has always been helping to handle matters in the Council Hall. However, with this important position and the status of the great wizard in blue, no one can ignore the presence of Yu Gongwu in the future.
The status of the Ba Kingdom and the royal city.
After the witches of the Yugong clan accepted the cheers of the people and returned to the group of witches, Xu Chen announced an overall reward for the Yugong clan's discovery of the salt mine, including a large number of various animal skins, linen, copper coins, painted pottery, and bronze utensils.
Write it on a piece of animal skin, stamp it with the Witch King's seal and give it to Witch Yu Gong. With this list of rewards, the Yu Gong clan can go to the King's City Warehouse to collect it at any time.
After rewarding the Yu Gong clan, Xu Chen also distributed some rewards to the officers and hunters who participated in the conquest of the Southern Barbarians and found the salt mines. In front of everyone, Xu Chen also rewarded the three elders of the Military and Political Hall, Feng, Lei and Long San.
Each person was rewarded with a separate small courtyard, which was named the Commander's Mansion, located in the southwest living area outside the palace.
This is the first batch of officials to be rewarded with separate houses since the founding of Pakistan.
It was also the first batch of private houses, completely breaking the current traditional habits of tribes living in groups.
In other words, these three houses are entirely the private property of the three commanders and have nothing to do with the tribe.
If the ownership of this property must be attributed, then it should belong to the Royal City and His Majesty the Witch King.
As long as the three commanders make no mistakes, these houses will be permanently owned by the three commanders.
This sudden reward caused the entire palace square to scream and uproar.
Countless tribal officers' eyes shone with envy.
Feng and Long both opened their mouths in excitement and were stunned for a long time before they came back to their senses.
When Xu Chen said that Long would be given a bigger reward during the Witch Lords Conference, Long thought it would be high-end goods like weapons, but he didn't expect that His Majesty the Witch King would directly reward him with a house.
This almost made him feel like he was dreaming.
There are more than two hundred people of the Wu tribe in the settlement in the royal city. No matter where they are placed, this is already a proper medium-sized tribe. No matter how high their status is in the royal city and how strong their military strength is, when they return to the tribe, they are just a small tribe.
Ordinary tribal leaders must also obey the arrangements of the clan leader and family leader, sleep in a room with several companions, and listen to each other's snoring, farting, grinding teeth and picking at each other while falling asleep.
He was very familiar with the row of independent small courtyards in the living area in the southwest of the royal city.
Although they are not big, each courtyard house only has about two acres plus the courtyard, but they are all rammed earth tile houses, and they are also very beautifully decorated. The fire pond, kitchen, stables, wells, warehouses, bedrooms are fully equipped, not to mention that they can accommodate only one person, even if they live for twenty
One is more than enough.
In the future, one person can live in such a spacious courtyard, how comfortable and comfortable it will be.
And the tribe has no right to ask to live together.
Because this was a reward from His Majesty the Witch King, a reward brought by the military merits and status of the three of them, and others had no right to enjoy or interfere with it.
Xu Chen personally handed over the animal skin real estate title stamped with the Witch King's seal to the excited and trembling hands of Feng and Long, and patted their shoulders to encourage them.
Because Lei had not returned from his trip to the Youtung Forest Lake to preside over the construction of the camp and explore the waterways, Lei's reward could only be distributed after he came back.
After the rewards are distributed, the most lively and important event of the Witch Lords Conference and the National Day Ceremony is the military parade.
Compared with last year, this year's military parade was not much larger in scale, except that there was one more formation of the Imperial Guard.
However, the quality this year is definitely much higher than last year, because after Xu Chen came back from the salt mine, he arranged for Feng to coordinate the training, and they also rehearsed several times together in the military camp and the palace square. All the hunter teams and the imperial army were already very familiar with it.
.
Despite this, all the participating officers and hunters were still very excited and nervous.
As Xu Chen stood on the flag stand and held a bark loudspeaker to announce the official start of the military parade, the whole square cheered loudly.
Under the command of Feng He and a group of forbidden troops, the onlookers retreated 20 meters again, and the center of the palace square was almost completely empty.
The dragon blew his bone whistle, and all the imperial troops on duty around the palace square and the flag stand gathered in front of the palace gate, and soon formed a phalanx of seventy people.
As the big drum of Dongdongdongdong was beaten again, a dense sound of horse hoofbeats was heard from the west direction of the city. Soon, a neat team of cavalry was seen coming in from the west gate avenue of the palace.
The thirty horses are all carefully selected war horses from tribes such as the Ba and Wu tribes. They are tall, fat and strong.
The Imperial Guards on horseback all wore brand-new unified leather armor, wide-brimmed cowhide hats, long knives hanging from their waists, and red cloaks. The three of them walked side by side, each holding a flag and looking up with their chests raised.
Ahead, he looks full of energy.
Horse hooves as big as bowls were trampling on the brick-paved road. Although the sound was slightly messy, the kicking and tapping was extremely clear.
There may not seem to be many war horses, but with ten rows so neatly lined up and dozens of colorful flags rolling in the wind, the momentum is quite impressive.
"Wuga~~"
This was the first time that the Forbidden Army cavalry appeared with brand-new equipment. After a brief silence, the men, women, and children onlookers burst into enthusiastic cheers again.
The Forbidden Army cavalry patrolling the royal city on horseback can be seen every day, but this is the first time for everyone to see such a majestic and majestic Forbidden Army cavalry.
"Every attack is invincible, every battle is invincible, the royal city is protected, and the world is at peace!"
In front of the cavalry, the deputy commander Ju, who was wearing black leather armor and a red cloak, rode a black war horse, holding high a blue dragon flag and roaring.
"Every attack is invincible, every battle is invincible, the royal city is protected, and the world is at peace!"
The thirty imperial guards who were following them roared in unison, and the sound shook the entire royal city.
Under the pressure of this momentum, the onlookers retreated again.
Among the nine hunters participating in the performance, countless hunters had extremely envious expressions on their faces.
Although everyone is a tribal hunter, the treatment and momentum are completely incomparable.
This group of forbidden troops carefully selected from various tribes is no longer the same in terms of status and future development.
Xu Chen stood on the flag stand and looked at the oncoming Imperial Army cavalry with a happy smile on his face.
Although the Forbidden Army spends money, it does have a long face.
The momentum of this appearance alone is enough to shock all tribes.
A group of witches stood behind Xu Chen, looking at the Imperial Army cavalry, all with shocked expressions on their faces.
They never dreamed that they would one day see such a magical team of hunters.
In the past, when I lived in caves, wore furs, and ate raw meat, I thought that the warriors of the tribe were already the bravest men in the world.
But it wasn't until this mounted imperial army appeared that they realized how big the gap was between the tribal hunters and these imperial armies.
Just these leather armors and war horses cannot be owned and equipped by any tribe.
The value of a war horse cannot yet be measured in terms of money.
As for the leather armor worn by the Imperial Guards, each set is carefully designed and processed from carefully selected thick animal skins, and is said to be worth dozens of fine animal skins.
As for the standard waist knife, it is also the most expensive and scarce bronze weapon today. Each one is carefully cast and polished by craftsmen in the foundry, and is worth hundreds of dollars.
As for a small tribe, the wealth accumulated throughout the year is only a few hundred dollars. Apart from the necessary production and living materials such as salt and pottery, copperware, leather goods, etc., there is no surplus to buy these extremely luxurious items.
wealth.
But each of these forbidden soldiers has standard equipment, from head to toe, even the boots are made by craftsmen recruited by the palace.
Even wealthy clans such as the Wu Clan, Gonghuo Clan, and Yu Gong Clan cannot support a few elite warriors equipped with this kind of equipment.
And this special forbidden army belongs exclusively to His Majesty the Witch King and appears specifically to protect the royal city.
Everyone believes that as long as there is such a special Forbidden Army team, the royal city will be impregnable and no one will dare to destroy it.
