Military parade is a ceremony for the country to review the armed forces. A review ceremony. It is usually held during major national festivals, welcoming and sending off state guests and troops for expeditions, triumphs, review, flag presentation, awarding, and large-scale military exercises to show celebration and salute.
It shows the achievements of army building and can be spectacular, boost military power and boost morale.
Military parades in the Central Plains have a long history. As a traditional military ceremony, field hunting was the original way to develop and evolve to this day. It is said that Chi You, the god of war in the era, was the hunting leader of the Chinese ancestors. When future generations use field hunting for military training, they must sacrifice to Chi You.
Before this military parade, a group of military generals, led by the Queen, paid homage to Chi You, the God of War. Zhou Yi, as the commander of the Imperial Guards, was also included in the ranks of military generals and followed him to pay homage to Chi You.
After paying homage to Chi You, the day of the military parade finally arrived. The entire capital was filled with people. Almost all the people in the city came to the streets, but ordinary civilians could only watch on both sides of the streets.
The Xuanwu Gate, the main gate of the palace, has long been cleared, and the palace guards have also firmly protected the palace. The capital city has been completely closed, and the Royal Guards, etc., the most loyal troops of the royal family, are also in the city.
Post every five steps and one sentry!
In this grand military parade, the emperor, important officials of the imperial court, and border princes all participated. If an accident happened, things would be very messy. In order to ensure safety, all the top-notch experts from the east and west factories of Jinyiwei's six gates were dispatched.
There were eight first-rate masters standing beside the Queen alone, including the four Jinyi Guards Shaantian plus Zeng Yi, Guo Juxia, Zhuge Shenhou, and the old eunuch of Dongchang. In addition to the eight people, there were four Jinyi Guards Qinglong, the four great gods of the Six Gates, etc.
Waiting for a group of top-notch experts, all scattered throughout the capital.
At this time, there are more than twenty first-rate masters in the capital city. With such power, given the current situation, the sum total of the first-rate masters from all forces outside the Central Plains may not be able to cause any trouble.
Although the Four Kingdoms Allied Forces were basically finished, with only one Persian left, who was half-disabled, the losses among the super-first-class experts of the Four-Nation Alliance were actually not great. Many of them had already run away when the country was broken. The main reason why so many super-first-class experts were sent was
I am also worried that these guys will come out to cause trouble.
Outside the imperial city, the review troops have all been prepared. Jinyi guards, six gates, infantry, archers, navy, cavalry, artillery, etc., all the armed forces of the Central Plains have sent out troops to be reviewed.
The Six Gates of Jinyiwei have been very busy these days. They not only have to think about sending out the formations to participate in the military parade, but also study other troops participating in the military parade. Every soldier of these troops, Jinyiwei and Liumen must make sure that there are no problems.
, even in addition to soldiers, even the civilians in the capital had to be screened for fear of something going wrong.
Before the military parade began, under the protection of a group of top-notch experts, everyone boarded the Xuanwu Gate. On one side were several important court officials, and next to those veterans were Duan Yu and others, these border princes.
On the other side were the big guys from the military. Next to them were two people. These two people appeared, which made Zeng Yi very confused. They turned out to be the former Emperor of Xixia and Tubo.
At this moment, a voice came from behind, "Your Majesty has arrived!" Everyone, even the ordinary civilians watching below, knelt on the ground, "I pay homage to Your Majesty! Long live your Majesty, long live, long live your Majesty!"
Long live the emperor, long live the emperor. Players who have watched some TV series will know this slogan, but in fact, they don’t shout this at all. "Sui" means years and months. "Long live" means eternal life! Speaking of
Let's first talk about the origin of the word "Long Live". It is a word of praise. Long Live means another name for God, that is, the eternally existing omnipotent heaven.
When the army returns from victory, they raise their arms and shout long live, expressing their praise to God to show that they have the support of God and are invincible.
Today is the Queen's birthday and it's also the victory parade, so that's why we call the Emperor this way.
The queen, who was not angry and proud, said: "All ministers are equal!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Before the military parade begins, of course the Queen has to make a speech. But there is no need for the Queen to say it herself, the old eunuch beside her will do it for her! I don’t know which scholar in the court wrote the article, and the literary talent is quite good.
"The emperor was entrusted with the destiny of heaven, and the edict said: Although he himself has contributed to the great cause, he has failed to compete, so he can be clear and prudent about the government system, generalize the power, measure the time and efforts, do nothing wrong, retire the meritorious officials and become civil servants...
.”
An article praising virtues, the old eunuch read it out in a mellow and rhythmic way, which had a special charm. Zeng Yi could easily understand the article. It was mainly about praising the emperor and the court.
After a while, I finally finished reading this article, and the military parade is finally about to begin.
Jin Yiwei took the lead. To be honest, Zeng Yi was still very worried at the Xuanwu Gate, especially those guys looking down below, wearing Feiyu uniforms and holding embroidered spring knives, were all players. If something happened to them, Zeng Yi would dare
I am sure that early tomorrow morning, memorials to impeach him will be piled up in front of the Queen.
Fortunately, there were no accidents with the Xueyiwei guys, and these guys should have secretly practiced in private, and they were all uniform. Above the Xuanwu Gate, no one could tell that the Jinyiwei who was leading the battle was actually a player.
Guys like the Xueyiwei all wore flying fish suits. I have to say that the flying fish suits of Jinyiwei were indeed very handsome. After these guys put them on one by one, they didn’t want to take them off.
Zeng Yi did not wear the Feiyu suit this time. This time he wore the Qilin suit. The Qilin is a legendary animal, shaped like a deer, with scales all over its body, an ox-tail and horse hooves, and one horn. Later generations regard it as auspicious.
The symbol of the unicorn is widely used in the decoration of various utensils. The image of the unicorn has also undergone some changes. The head is painted as a dragon head with two horns, the tail is painted as a lion's tail, etc. The unicorns embroidered on official uniforms in the Central Plains seem to be not limited to four or five.
It can also be used by those with special positions, such as royal guards, commanders and attendants.
The clothing of civil and military officials mainly includes court clothes, sacrificial clothes, public clothes, ordinary clothes, etc. The unicorn robe is the court clothes of officials. Its characteristics are large lapels, slanted collars, and loose sleeves. The embroidered patterns are except for the two groups on the chest and back.
, also distributed at the upper end of the rotator cuff and under the waist. In addition, a wide edge made of natural color is sewn under the left and right ribs.
The bright red Qilin suit, in Zeng Yi's opinion, is even more beautiful than the Feiyu suit. However, those guys from the Xueyiwei said it looks like a wedding suit. It is festive, but in terms of handsomeness, it is indeed not as good as the Feiyu suit.
After the Jin Yiwei passed by, they were followed by a team of six-door policemen. The purple-clad policemen, whose purple uniforms looked very good, looked back at Zhou Yi. Guo Juxia, who was usually very calm, also looked nervous at this time.
