In a daze, the envoys and representatives from various countries followed Zhao Hongrun to the tower of the West Gate of Daliang City.
At this time, Zhao Hongrun turned around and said to the envoys from various countries: "It is rare that all of you distinguished guests gather together today. It is the time when we are reviewing the army in the Wei Dynasty. I would like to invite you to enjoy the military parade together. I also hope that you will not hesitate to give me some advice and give me some advice."
.”
Hearing this, Qin's Weiyang lord Ying Hua, Yangquan lord Ying Bo, Lantian lord Ying Biao were banished, Wei's Gong Ziyu, Lu's Gongzi Xing and his veteran Ji Shu, South Korea's Bao Yuan, Han Chao, Zhao Zhuo,
together
The country's top ministers, Gao Xi, Guan Zhong, Uncle Bao, Chu's Ping Yujun Xiong Hu, Yue's Wu Qi, etc., all representatives of these countries invariably showed indescribable looks that could only be understood.
"What are you talking about calling on the Central Plains to stop the strife..."
"...In the final analysis, it is not to intimidate other countries."
"Haha, you haven't finished this meal yet, are you already impatient?"
Although the envoys from various countries had their own thoughts in their hearts, they did not show it at all on their faces. They all looked happy, surprised and honored, and nodded in agreement with Zhao Hongrun's words.
At this time, under the instructions of the President of the Imperial Guard, Wei Jiao, the sound of drums slowly sounded on the city wall.
Immediately, a general wearing armor walked out from behind Wei Jiao, stood by the city wall and introduced himself to the envoys from various countries: "Dear envoys, this is the general Zhai Huang who was just transferred to the "Tiance Mansion" not long ago.
, Today, Zhai will give you a general introduction to the armies of the Wei Dynasty. If there is anything unsatisfactory, I hope you will correct me."
"Tiance Mansion?"
"What is that?"
"It's strange. Here are Wei's Minister of War and the Imperial Guards General Wei Jiao. It's really unexpected that this little general introduces the army..."
The envoys from various countries took a deep look at Zhai Huang. While firmly remembering this man's appearance, they were thinking about the information about "Tiance Mansion" in their hearts.
They had a hunch: this Tiance Mansion was probably more powerful than the Ministry of War.
And just when these envoys from various countries were secretly guessing about this Tiance Mansion, they faintly heard a faint sound of footsteps coming from the north of the city.
After a while, the envoys from various countries finally saw clearly. It turned out that an infantry phalanx of about a thousand people appeared from the end of the north city wall and slowly moved towards the south.
When the phalanx of thousands of people passed by the city gate tower, the envoys from various countries looked at it carefully and saw that they were fully dressed and marched in neat steps. They looked well-trained and really extraordinary.
"cough."
Zhai Huang, the general of Tiance Mansion who was responsible for the introduction, attracted the attention of the envoys from all countries with a slight cough, and then pointed to the army passing by the city and introduced: "The first army to appear is our imperial guard of Daliang.
Army... Maybe you are quite unfamiliar with this army. It is no wonder, because this army was born only a few years ago.
It has only been two or three years, and it has not participated in any well-known war so far... In fact, Zhai also feels a bit incredible, why is such a 'new' army the first to appear? Well, it is probably to take care of the imperial guards.
The face of the army, after all, is the army guarding Daliang, it can also be called the king's army..."
"Hey!" Wei Jiao, the leader of the Imperial Guard, pretended to be dissatisfied and scolded: "Hey, new guy, please be careful what you say!"
Amidst the laughter of the envoys from various countries, Zhai Huang showed his fear of Wei Jiao. As soon as the conversation changed, he immediately spoke favorably of the Imperial Guards. He introduced the Imperial Guards and said: "In our great Wei Dynasty,
Among all the armies, most of them are generally in a "50,000 establishment", but the Imperial Guard is only in a "200,000 establishment". Of course, at present,
There were only about 100,000 former Imperial Guards... In fact, the strength of this army was quite strong, but it was built late and failed to catch up with the time. But Zhai can guarantee that the armed forces of this Imperial Guard are definitely the best.
I am the top leader in the Wei Dynasty. With this army to guard Daliang, I believe that I will never dare to offend Daliang."
After hearing this, Wei Jiao snorted with satisfaction: "That's natural."
At this time, the thousand-man Guards team passing by the city had arrived directly opposite the city gate tower. I saw these thousands of Guards soldiers raising their spears in unison and shouting in unison.
He shouted: "When the city is alive, people are still there; when the city is gone, people are going to perish!"
This sudden slogan was like a sudden thunder, which shocked several envoys from other countries on the city gate tower and couldn't help but tremble.
Immediately, the envoys from various countries looked at the imperial guard carefully with surprised eyes.
As Zhai Huang said just now, the Imperial Guards of Wei State are unknown in various countries, but seeing the military appearance and morale of this army now, it feels that it is not that simple.
Just when the envoys from various countries were secretly frightened, the thousand-man phalanx of the Imperial Guards under the city, after shouting slogans, turned to the west and headed towards the western suburbs outside the city.
Finally, this thousand-man phalanx lined up neatly on the flat ground outside the city, facing the city gate tower.
At the same time, another army came out from the north city wall. It was also a phalanx of a thousand people, but the difference was that half of this phalanx of a thousand people were infantry and half were cavalry.
At the head of this army, King Zhao Jiang of Yan sat on a horse and advanced slowly with an air of looking down upon the world.
At this time, on the city gate tower, Zhai Huang introduced again: "Compared to the Imperial Guards just now, I believe you have heard about the second army that appeared. It is the brother of our Majesty, King Zhao Jiang of Yan.
The "Hanoi Army"... The "Hanoi Army" is divided into two parts, the "Shanyang Army" and the "Nanyan Army". The Shanyang Army is an infantry force, while the Nanyan Army is a cavalry force..."
Looking at the Wei army slowly passing by the city, South Korean general Bao Yuan couldn't help but take a few more glances. After all, in the "Battle between Wei and Han" a while ago, the two armies under the command of Zhao Jiang, King Yan of Wei State, were
It is one of the two major obstacles that prevent them from marching into Wei - the other obstacle is the anti-rebellion army under the command of Zhao Yuanzuo, the king of Nanliang.
A moment later, when the Hanoi army passed under the city gate tower, King Zhao Jiang of Yan raised his right hand and suddenly clenched his fist. The soldiers of his thousand-man phalanx shouted in unison: "In every battle, you must be the first, and you will not retreat until you die!"
Ps: Hey, my memory is bad, I just can’t remember the slogan of the Shanyang Army.』
Because they had already experienced this once, the envoys from various countries on the city gate tower were not startled this time by the slogans shouted out of the mouths of the Wei troops below the city. They just watched with solemn expressions.
Immediately after Yan Wang Zhao Jiang, the "Northern First Army" led by Zhao Hongrun's other brother, Huan Wang Zhao Xuan - in fact, it can now be called the "Expeditionary Army" or "Northern Expeditionary Army"
”, after all, the “Second Northern Army” under the command of Southern Liang King Zhao Yuanzuo and the “Third Northern Army” under Jiang Bi had already changed their names to “Suppression of Rebellion Army” and “Shangdang Army” respectively, so that there would be no further confusion.
"...The third person to appear is the "Northern First Army" under the command of King Huan Zhao Xuan, His Majesty's younger brother. Its full name is "The First Northern Xinjiang Expeditionary Army." As far as Zhai knows, King Huan is here this time.
It can be said that he made great achievements in the war. He single-handedly blocked South Korea's Taiyuan Shoucheng and Yangyi Marquis Han Xu, making it difficult for them to set foot in Hedong County..." Zhai Huang continued to praise King Huan Zhao Hongxuan and his Northern First Army, while secretly
Pay attention to the expression of South Korean Admiral Bao Yuan.
It is not difficult to see that Bao Yuan's complexion is not very good. It is no wonder. After all, the biggest reason for the failure of this "Wei-Han War" is that neither Yanmen Shou Li Mu nor Taiyuan Shou Lecheng have opened up the situation, and
On the Wei side, Zhao Run led the Yanling Army and the Shangshui Army to break into the hinterland of South Korea, and it was a veritable bloody start.
Following the Northern First Army, there are Hedong Guard, the "Hedong Army" under Lintao Lord Wei Ji, the Hexi Army under Sima An, the Hexi Guard, the Shangdang Army under Shangdang Guard Jiang Bi, and the "Hedong Army" currently mainly stationed in the Hetao area.
Wei Wujun" and so on, appeared one after another.
Seeing the familiar Wei troops appearing one after another, Bao Yuan's expression became more and more solemn, and he couldn't help but tense up.
It's no wonder, after all, these troops have all dealt with him in South Korea, and they are all well-trained and battle-experienced troops.
It is worth mentioning that when the Hedong Army entered the field, a deafening cheer suddenly came from under the gate of Daliang West City. Not to mention the envoys from various countries on the gate tower were startled, even Zhao Hongrun was a little baffled.
After asking about it, I found out that it was the people in the city who had learned that Wei's army was parading outside the city, and rushed out of the city hoping to see it. Although there were many imperial guards at the gate of the city, they could not stand up to the people in the city.
enthusiasm.
After learning about this, Zhao Hongrun summoned Wei Jiao and whispered a few words, asking the latter to send more imperial guards to encircle a piece of land under the city so that the people in the city could have the opportunity to witness the military parade. After all, this was also a way to unite the country.
The good deeds of the people.
Zhao Hongrun's open-mindedness made the military parade more grand. Every time a new Wei army entered, the people of Daliang City watching outside the city would burst into deafening shouts, especially when "Wei Wujun"
When I entered the venue, the cheers were endless.
This accident made the generals and officials of the Ministry of War look at each other in confusion: Wei Wujun accepted this level of cheers, what about the rest of the army?
If I had known this earlier, I should have placed Wei Wujun further back!
To be fair, in fact, Wei Wujun's achievements over the years have been average and cannot be said to be unique. In comparison, Shang Shui's achievements are infinitely greater than those of Wei Wujun, but in terms of status in the hearts of Wei people, Shang Shui's
The army is no match for Wei Wu's army - to be exact, no other Wei army can match Wei Wu's army.
There is no way, who makes Wei Wujun exist since the founding of Wei State, and it is an elite army that kills all directions.
This is the foundation, the accumulation of military history, which cannot be compared with other Wei armies.
No, after the Wei Wujun, when the anti-rebellion army entered the scene, the cheers of the people in Daliang obviously dropped a few notches, which embarrassed the Wei general Pang Huan who led this thousand-man army. Fortunately, Tiance
The generals and officials of the Ministry of War came up with a remedy in time, which was to let the imperial guards on the city wall cheer. Finally, Pang Huan and the anti-rebellion army were not embarrassed.
However, this accident did not cause the envoys from various countries to snicker. On the contrary, when they saw the Wei troops entering the field, the expressions of the envoys from various countries became more and more solemn, because in their view, as long as these troops appeared,
Each one is so majestic and majestic that it is difficult to tell them apart.
"Damn it! How many such elites does Wei have?!"
"...The Wei State didn't split an army into many branches to fool us, right? Otherwise, how could they all be so elite and powerful?"
Just as the envoys from various countries were secretly suspicious, the last army to appear slowly appeared from the north city gate.
At this time, the tone of General Zhai Huang of Tiance Mansion was inevitably a little excited. After all, this was the army he had been in before.
"... Next, Rong Zhai will introduce to you, the most... er, the most frequently dispatched army in the Wei Dynasty, the Shang Shui Army -!"
Maybe it was because there were many important figures in the Wei army. Although Zhai Huang wanted to say "the most elite", he did not take away the honor after all. But having said that, even if he didn't mention it, the envoys from other countries also knew about this Wei army.
The ground is clear.
Is there anyone in this world who has never heard of "Master Shang Shui Wei"?
This is a certain King Su, a certain Young Master of Wei, a certain current king of the Wei Kingdom who previously swept across the Central Plains, the most elite of the Wei Kingdom!
Not to mention, although the status of the Shang Shui Army in the hearts of the Wei people is still not as good as that of the Wei Wu Army, it may be because this army has served the Wei State through life and death in the past ten years and has made great military achievements. Therefore, when the Shang Shui Army appeared on the scene, Daliang
The people in the city still gave extremely loud cheers and cheers.
"...Shangshui Army is divided into two groups: "Shangshui Army" and "Shangshui Youma". The former is infantry and the latter is cavalry..."
When Zhai Huang introduced the composition of the merchant navy, South Korean general Bao Yuan had a particularly complicated expression.
If we want to say which army of the Wei State is the most hated by Koreans, then of course it is the Shangshui Army. After all, this army twice captured Handan, the capital of Korea, and caused indelible psychological scars on many Koreans; and Shangshui Army
There is no need to say more about Yuma, although it is only a mere five thousand
He was a heavy cavalry, but he destroyed at least 50,000 Korean cavalry and 100,000 infantry. He even caused South Korea to spend several years of tax revenue to build the "50,000 heavy cavalry". As a result, this heavy cavalry that had high hopes was
The cavalry, Wei Gongzi Run easily killed 35,000 of them.
In the hearts of the Korean people, all the armies of Wei State put together would not be as great as the losses caused to them by the Shang Shui Army and Shang Shui Youma.
Not to mention, Wu Ji, the general of the Shang Shui Army who was riding in front of the team at the moment, had killed many generals in South Korea in the four "Wars between Wei and Han", and even the former governor Xin
, were all captured alive by this man, which can be described as a notorious reputation.
"Every attack is invincible and every battle is invincible!"
When the nearly a thousand merchant navy shouted this slogan, the envoys from various countries on the city gate were secretly stunned: How dare you say that?!
But if you think about it carefully, the Shang Shui Army really deserves the words "invincible in attack and invincible in battle". After all, this army has indeed swept through all the countries in the Central Plains. Although its illustrious military exploits cannot be
It is said that it is unprecedented, but it is truly unprecedented.
Even if we compare the first generation Wei Wujun, I am afraid it is difficult to evaluate which of the two armies is stronger.
It is worth mentioning that, following the Shang Shui army, there were also Wei's chariot troops, including ballista chariots, Wugang chariots, tortoise-shell chariots, catapults, well-land chariots, etc. These chariots were neatly arranged.
The soldiers lined up in a row and slowly entered the field. This made the Shang Shui Army's military force become particularly powerful and gave people a great shock.
"Isn't it spectacular?"
When the Shang Shui Army came on the scene, Xiong Hu, the King of Pingyu of the Chu State, snorted lightly and said maliciously to Gao Xi, the high minister of Qi State: "Master Gao Xi, do you know? There is absolutely no one in the Shang Shui Army.
Most of them are soldiers from our Chu Kingdom...That Wu Ji was once a young general under my command...Does Lord Gao Xi know what this means?"
What he actually wanted to say was: This means that our country of Chu can imitate and create an elite merchant navy army at any time. You, the country of Qi, might as well wash your neck and wait to die!
"..."
Of course Gao Xi, the high minister of Qi State, sensed the malice in Ping Yu Xiong Hu's words. Hearing the words, he lightly retorted: "Does it mean that the prince does not know people well? Is he ambitious but not talented? Is he mediocre and incompetent?"
"You!" Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu was furious. Considering that it was not the right time to attack, he suppressed his anger and said in a low voice: "Huh! This old man has a sharp tongue and sharp teeth. I hope that when Linzi is captured one day,
You can still be so arrogant!"
"Let's settle the matter of food and grass first."
Gao Xi glanced sideways at Pingyu Jun Xiong Hu and sneered.
As far as the current war between Qi and Chu is concerned, Gao Xi, the high minister of Qi, is not too worried, because Chu has exposed its weakness - although Chu has a large number of troops, the logistics and food supplies cannot keep up.
Basically, the battles were fierce in the early stage and weak in the later stage. The more stalemate the situation, the greater the weakness of Chu State in this aspect.
At this time, as the Shang Shui Army slowly lined up on the flat terrain in the western suburbs, the Imperial Guard, Hanoi Army, Hedong Army, Hexi Army, Northern Expedition Army, Wei Wu Army, and Suppression Army had already gathered in that open space.
, Shangdang Army, Yanling Army, Shangshui Army and other more than ten elite armies of the Wei State formed a thousand-man phalanx.
Seeing these phalanxes of thousands of people with their respective military flags erected, arranged in an orderly manner, the envoys from various countries on the city gate tower could not help but feel their mouths were dry and their hearts beating rapidly.
Although there were actually only more than ten thousand Wei soldiers outside the city in the western suburbs at this time, in the eyes of the envoys from various countries, it seemed as if hundreds of thousands of Wei troops had arrived. The overwhelming power made the envoys from various countries breathless.
.
Even Weiyang Jun Ying Hua and Yangquan Jun Ying Bo of Qin were shocked by the powerful courage shown by these Wei soldiers and could not help but murmur to themselves, mostly words of praise.
At this time, Zhao Hongrun walked to the city wall, held his hand on the city wall, and shouted to the army in the distance: "My heroic sons of the Wei Dynasty, thank you for your hard work!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Wei soldiers in the distance outside the city, responding as if with one voice.
"Wherever the king's sword points, the front of the army is directed!"
"Bless me, the Great Wei, and I will not regret it even if I die!"
For a time, the people in Daliang below the city cheered non-stop. Almost every Wei person's face turned red with excitement, and everyone cheered.
Maybe they had heard of it before, but they had never seen it with their own eyes: The army of Wei State turned out to be so powerful!
At this time, Zhao Hongrun had turned around, spread his hands, smiled and said to the envoys from various countries: "Do you think our army in Wei is strong?"
"...Is this a demonstration?"
"This is just a fucking demonstration, right?"
The envoys from various countries had strange expressions and looked at each other, although they had long known that the young king of Wei in front of them was a man with a flamboyant personality.
As a result, the envoys praised and complimented him one after another.
In fact, this is not against their will. After all, the armies of Wei State have indeed given them endless shock.
Both the Wei soldiers themselves and this unprecedented military parade ceremony gave them an eye-opening feeling.
At this moment, I believe that no one wants their country to be an enemy of such a behemoth with more than a dozen elite armies.
It cannot be denied that in this era, Wei State has stood at the top of the Central Plains!
