The grandest ceremony in the history of human civilization exchanges finally kicked off today. Seeing Zai Chun, who was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, slowly approaching the Zhiyuan under the cover of a flag and umbrella, everyone present subconsciously looked at it. pocket watch.
At 5:25, Zai Chun, accompanied by the Duke of Newcastle, returned to the Zhiyuan, and all participants in the all-day event were gathered together at this moment.
"After the order is passed, all the soldiers will be in position immediately according to the original plan in ten minutes... You see, the British battleship has its boiler pressurized and the sails are half open..."
Boom boom boom... All the battleships in the entire combined fleet sounded the sound of intensive footsteps. The soldiers in the restaurant put down their tableware whether they had finished eating or not, and began to gather on the deck with the equipment they had prepared on their backs.
Row after row of soldiers gathered on the deck to form small tofu cubes. Today, only the most elite veterans and warriors with the most proven military qualifications were eligible to disembark to participate in the ceremony.
Of the two thousand expeditionary troops, only 800 people were able to disembark and walk onto the streets today. One hundred people formed a formation, and the entire eight formations were assembled on different battleships.
There is a line horizontally and vertically, and all the soldiers are carefully selected for their height, from low to high, from 175 meters to 180 meters, forming a beautiful and neat slope in rows.
Every pure copper button on the military uniform was polished until it shined, and the leather boots reflected a woman's underwear. The thick cowhide armed belt tied the waist tightly, and some veterans even wore theirs. Medal of Merit.
Those brothers who did not have the chance to join the honor guard were lying down at the hatch of the ship and looking out. Their eyes were blue with envy at this moment.
"Brother, don't fucking embarrass this guy! Damn it, your parents are lucky enough to have a good-looking child..."
"Here comes Doctor Huang. Doctor Huang is here to give everyone some soup and medicine..."
A well-known orderly was carrying a large pot of soup with a spoon inside. Dr. Huang ordered loudly, "Everyone who takes a spoonful of it must drink it! There are anti-heat herbs in it to prevent you from heatstroke, and There are also astringent medicinal materials to prevent you from diarrhea..."
"Don't be afraid, there are no side effects of taking herbal medicine. If there are any, some people may be constipated for three days after drinking it... Damn, what I want is that you are constipated, so as not to have any accidents at the end of the day? Drink them all... …”
The brothers who were watching the excitement finally regained their balance and said, "It seems that there is a price for you to show your face! You have been constipated for three days, hahaha..."
Wang Chen, the platoon leader in the team, drank the soup in the spoon in one gulp, and then gave the comrades who couldn't eat the grapes a big eyeball, "I'm happy! Not to mention constipation for three days, I'm also happy for ten days... This time I participated in this grand event. When I go home, I can brag about it to my children and grandchildren for the rest of my life..."
"Hush... just brag! You have children and grandchildren, has your wife been reincarnated now? Hahaha..." This is how it is in the army. Those who fail to get the mission will always laugh at those who have the opportunity to make meritorious deeds.
These soldiers who had no chance to join the honor guard were all jealous and crazy. It would be impossible not to make fun of them.
Wang Chen threw the wooden spoon into the bucket. "Damn it, my wife is in Borneo! And she is the Minister of Education appointed by the head of state! Damn, I'm so greedy for you..."
"Tch..." A group of people all extended their middle fingers to Wang Chen, "Go ahead and dream! Do people like you? The toad wants to eat the swan's fart..."
Just when Wang Chen wanted to retort and curse a few words, suddenly the leader Jiang Lie shouted from the front of the team, "Everyone... stand at attention! Salute His Majesty the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty!"
Only then did people see that the little emperor Zai Chun had already boarded the gangway, and even the head of state and others had put down their tableware.
You can do whatever you want in normal times, but not now. The little emperor has the highest status in the diplomatic corps, and all Chinese people must give him the highest respect in front of Europeans.
With a snap, a hundred tigers on the deck saluted collectively, and the majestic momentum made the Duke of Newcastle's eyes light up.
"It turns out that what I saw yesterday was not your most powerful moment. Today is... God, how did you train these soldiers?" the Duke asked with a smile.
Xiao Letian smiled faintly, "You're welcome! Can such a tiger be trained? Wrong, there is no need to train at all. This is just the original appearance of us Chinese!"
"I have no other abilities. I just brushed off the dust in the hearts of the Chinese people and let my true self be revealed... Otherwise, does the Duke think that China's tens of millions of square kilometers of land are all just words?" Come out?"
"Oh... Hahaha, it makes sense, it makes sense, the head of state really doesn't suffer from the sharp mouth..." It may be because the Duke of Newcastle and Xiao Letian have business contacts, and because of Xian Zhiyuan's business sentiment, he He didn't care at all about the softness in Xiao Letian's words.
Europeans value profits over face, and their values are completely different from those of Manchu officials.
After a few polite words, Zai Chun looked at the opportunity and said excitedly to the master, "Master, you really should come ashore with me. European banquets are really interesting, very interesting, and completely different from ours..."
Zai Chun's eyes were bright and he seemed to be having a great time. "The baron's manor is very large. There are more than fifty gardeners taking care of the plants for him. Their style is different from our Chinese small bridges and flowing water. They are all square and square." Positive geometric figures..."
"And their banquet hall, which is ridiculously big, is filled with specimens of all kinds of rare animals and plants. The most beautiful specimen is an African lion, which occupies a corner of the banquet hall and is extremely impressive..."
"Haha, this is the first time I've seen a real lion. It's so big..."
Xiao Letian looked at Zai Chun with a wry smile. After all, he was still a child, and he was addicted to just a few toys. How could this be so good? Such a character is not allowed to be manipulated by the British.
Thinking of this, Xiao Letian said with a serious face, "Your Majesty! This is not the time to chat. Look at the shore. The British people to greet you have begun to gather. Please restrain yourself. We will lift anchor at six o'clock sharp! "
Zai Chun encountered a soft nail and did not dare to talk anymore, so he had to go to his exclusive position at the bow of the ship and become a living specimen of the Qing Dynasty.
Today, the sailors specially ordered a wooden high platform for Zaichun. Standing on it, little Zaichun is actually two heads taller than the Duke of Newcastle. Coupled with the bright dragon robe, this allows the British people to see the Eastern Emperor more easily. majesty.
Zai Chun couldn't help but gasp at a glance. It was not obvious just now, but now he saw that the British people gathered on both sides of the Taiwan Strait had gathered into black groups, and they were still growing and expanding.
Today, the Thames River blocked two-thirds of the channel to welcome Zai Chun. The middle of the river and the northern side were all divided by armed speedboats. All civilian ships could use the narrowest channel on the south side.
And those large merchant ships are simply prohibited from passing today. There are warships of the British Royal Fleet everywhere within sight. The small boats are maintaining order on the river, and the large warships are lined up waiting for the review of the Zhiyuan.
The Victory has half-opened its sails and is ready to accompany them. By then, the Victory and the Reach will sail side by side towards London.
