There was a miscellaneous discussion here, and students from the National School were seen pushing about a dozen chairs with wheels. Everyone was wondering, are they going to sing the Three Kingdoms Opera? But we don’t need so many Zhuge Liangs, right? But I saw a bunch of people in the car. Some were missing arms, some were missing legs, and some had their faces wrapped in white cloth. It turns out they are all disabled. These attackers were all wearing short-haired gray uniforms of soldiers, with metal pieces called "medals" hanging on their chests, and a red strip of cloth on their cuffs - this is the battle symbol in the newly promulgated badge of honor. Injured armband.
Then Chief of Staff Ma Qianxu read out the commendation orders and preferential treatment decisions for the ten disabled personnel in the Battle of Bopu, including preferential policies such as disability subsidies, employment and housing preferential treatment. Finally, these wheelchairs were pushed to the viewing platform on the side of the rostrum. For the representatives, this was just fun, but for the 6 naval soldiers lined up beside the stadium, the significance of this moment was extraordinary. Especially Huang Xiong, who knows very well that if a soldier becomes disabled on the battlefield, even if he can crawl back, he will be dead. The shorthairs not only raise the disabled soldiers, but also make them look bad in such a big scene... This Australia A human army truly treats its soldiers as human beings.
As the commendation ended, Ma Qianxu announced that the security team drills would now begin. His words were amplified by microphones and speakers at extremely high decibels as soon as he finished speaking. A big drum was beaten with a heavy hammer. The villagers were in a commotion, turning their heads and looking around in confusion.
Their doubts were swept away by the slowly moving phalanx of teaching battalions and companies in the monotonous drum rhythm of "dong...dong...dong, dong, dong". The county magistrate naturally knew that this was originally the Shengtang drum in front of the county government hall - he didn't know how he got this one, but he didn't expect that this drum could make such a murderous sound.
A square formation is the benchmark company trained by Wei Aiwen, and its military appearance is the best in the entire battalion. For this military parade to demonstrate their strength, the PLA Army and the Navy conducted a competition-style training. The Hades faction headed by Wei Aiwen and Zhang Bolin insisted on using the goose step as the standard military parade pace, but they were rejected by most of the veterans who served in the pla - they did not know what the goose step was. The navy started anew and implemented British-style drills to fully demonstrate the differences between the navy.
Originally, the navy wanted to change the uniforms of the sailors and soldiers to highlight the differences between the navy and the army - after all, the difference in the uniforms between the navy and the army is only the color, but in the end it was given to the thrifty and thrifty executive committee. It will be vetoed. We are about to enter the stage of large-scale massacre. The newly emerged soldiers must wear clothes. If you have any cloth, you should leave some cloth for them to wear.
The drums are pounding and the piccolo is melodious. The flags are like blood, and the bayonets are like forests.
Accompanied by the tune of "Grenadier March" played by the piccolo player trained by Xiong Buyou himself, 81 soldiers, 1 flag bearer, 1 officer and 1 flutist from the base company strode forward. Every drum beat coincided with the footsteps of these 84 officers and soldiers. The neat footsteps on the ground, the sound of drums and flutes seemed to have a hypnotic effect, making everyone's eyes completely focused on the soldiers passing in front of the viewing platform. Every soldier is in high spirits, soft epaulettes have been sewn on their shoulders, and a simple military rank system will be implemented soon. The armor belt and its fasteners were polished to a shiny shine. It looks majestic.
The rifles carried by the soldiers were slender and had a 45 cm long three-edged bayonet on the barrel. The sharply ground blade and the specially polished and oiled blade show its only purpose - to make a transparent hole about an inch long and half an inch wide on someone's chest, or even make a hole in the back.
84 Both feet were raised and lowered at the same time, and their footsteps brought up bursts of dust. Although they were just cloth shoes, the uniform and heavy footsteps still made those present feel a strong sense of oppression.
When passing the viewing platform, the leading officer drew out his command knife and commanded ".Salute!". The soldiers quickly took off their rifles from their shoulders, changed hands, straightened their bayonets and pointed straight to the sky in a salute. It looked like a phalanx. He grew half a meter taller in an instant. The bayonets were like a forest, and the metallic light reflected in the sunlight was so horrifying that everyone felt chilled.
The senior officials of the Executive Committee on the viewing platform stood upright, each of them assuming an extremely solemn look. Wen Deji imitated the second generation and waved his hands slightly. The cameras of Tintin's men were clicking. The whole scene really looked like that.
One square after another passed. The infantry phalanx of the five infantry companies of the training camp, with a pace of 75 steps per minute and a distance of 25 meters, stunned everyone who saw the infantry formation for the first time. The Western-style arrangement was really shocking to the villagers of Lingao who had never seen an army gathering with more than 100 people. No one noticed that military leaders such as Xi Yazhou, He Ming, and Ma Qianxu on the auditorium were shaking their heads slightly. They were still not in class!
The navy's marine team, which was the last to appear, was also a phalanx of 84 people. The tune was also changed to "The People's Navy Marches Forward". This phalanx all performed British naval foot drills, and the armed belts were specially dyed white. Although there are no white gloves, it is still not satisfactory. The navy's precise and beautiful footwork received a burst of applause from the spectators. Wei Aiwen was so angry that it was unfair. There were only a few naval officers in the company, and there were only seven or eight officers around the company when they were practicing infantry. In contrast, it is much more difficult for the Sixth Army to train five companies.
The foot drill review was over, and the parade commander-in-chief, Xi Yazhou, once again loudly announced the start of the firepower demonstration. He motioned to Xiong Buyou to broadcast an announcement to everyone: I hope that if everyone is timid, please cover your ears first!
After a minute, there was only an exciting bugle blowing, followed by the sound of a group of intensive horse hooves. Smoke and dust rose not far away. Everyone looked forward to seeing three artillery carriages rushing in from outside. Each artillery carriage was pulled by six horses and towed three artillery pieces on wheels. The artillery carriages were equipped with soldiers.
The driver did not sit on the cart, but rode on the lead horse. He reined the horse back, and the three artillery carts all made a beautiful turn in the middle of the field, quickly changed direction, and aimed the muzzles of the artillery. Hit the target opposite the viewing platform.
Before the car stopped, the gunners and riders on the cannon cart jumped out one after another: unloading the horses, pushing the cannon, and unpacking the ammunition. Eight people served one cannon. Their movements were dizzyingly fast, but they were all exactly the same. . In a moment, the gunner loaded the weapon, took aim, and waved the flag to stand by. I saw Zhang Bolin waving the red flag on the auditorium, and the three cannons sprayed out fire and thick smoke at the same time. The densely packed human-shaped target half a mile away was shattered to pieces, leaving no trace intact.
After a breath, there was another volley of artillery fire, and the remaining targets fell in batches like ears of grain harvested by a sickle under the bombardment. In a matter of moments, the cannon had fired three times, completely clearing the open space by the river. Some of the deputies were timid but unwilling to plug their ears and were so frightened that they fell to the ground. After the shooting was completed, the gunners harnessed their horses again and galloped away as quickly as they arrived at the right time. The movement was so fast that it dazzled the delegates, leaving only broken wood chips and ruts on the ground in the distance.
There was another bugle sound on the viewing platform here, and 12 more double-gun cannons were pushed into the sandbag position. Reload, aim, and standby again. The red flag on the city tower was waved again. This time, the prepared villagers were not intimidated. However, the sudden explosion of smoke and flames two miles away and the broken wooden boards that were blown into the sky shocked all the villagers and the county. The people in the government office were shocked again.
Zhang Bolin nodded proudly. The first salvo of 6-pounder shotgun shells was genuine and the effect was very obvious. In order to enhance the sound and light effect of the 12-pound mountain grenade salvo, electronically controlled gunpowder packets were buried in the target area in advance. Regardless of whether the shell hits or not, the extraordinary power of the explosion of dozens of kilograms of gunpowder will completely convince the squires in Lingao not to have too high expectations for General Qiongzhou.
Sure enough, everyone from Wu Ya to Huang Xunkun looked ashen. Even Wang Zhaomin, who came to see the situation so that he could report to the county magistrate, felt completely powerless - in the past, he had entrusted himself to the virtual snake to help his boss get through this, but for this group of short-haired snakes, The final outcome of defeat is positive - it's just that when the imperial court can use all its strength to deal with the Kun thieves, they will naturally be finished. No matter how good the outcome is, it is just a matter of getting on an iron boat and going back and forth from there.
But now it seems that the reason why this group of thieves are still living in a corner of Lingao is just because their wings are not full yet. In just a few months, a group of poorly clothed poor boys have been trained into tiger and wolf masters. So many of them are equipped with short-haired bird cannons that are indestructible and have a long range, creating a weapon more powerful than the red-haired men. Good cannon. The Kun thief's private army currently only has a few hundred people and has such a momentum. If there are thousands of people in the future, won't the Qiongzhou government just let them run wild? What can the whole province of Guangdong do to him? It seems that their ambition is far beyond seeking a piece of land to live and trade with the Francois.
Thinking of this, Mr. Wang secretly sighed: The southeastern corner of the imperial court will never have peace in the future. I am afraid that there will be another Jiannu.
The senior executives of the Executive Committee on the viewing platform all looked excited. Wen Desi nodded repeatedly, turned to Xi Yazhou and said, "This artillery unit is well trained!"
"This was all done by Zhang Bolin and Ying Yu, and Lin Shenhe also put in a lot of effort - what the artillery was like in the 19th century basically comes from Lin Yanei's first-hand information."
"The artillery looks very capable. He is indeed the god of war."
"There is a serious shortage of horses now." Ying Yue saw the leader's concern and knew that to solve the problem, he must speak up while the leader is happy. "Otherwise, we can dispatch more cavalry artillery for this demonstration."
"Horses are indeed a problem." Ma Qianzhu also came in, "Not only artillery, I originally wanted to build a cavalry team. In the future, cavalry will be required for long-distance reconnaissance and interception."
"Let's brainstorm a solution at the next weekly meeting. Guangdong can't solve it."! ~!
