I'm so hard

Chapter 271 Liuhai Kingdom is about to showdown

On the first day, the three watch drum has just been beaten.

Changdan City became noisy.

More than half of the people on the street are from other places, and these people arrived in Changdan half a month ago.

Every day he lives in an inn that is ten times more expensive than in the past, and eats unaccustomed or even expensive meals, just to see the demeanor of the Great Zhou army.

Since last year's soldier drill was appreciated by countless people, Zhao Yan has decided to hold a soldier drill every first day of the year.

The first day of last year was a brand new appearance of Dazhou's strength.

And this year was the first year of Dazhou's New Deal reform, and it was also the year when Dazhou proved itself to be the strongest country.

In just three years, Zhao Yan was able to turn Da Zhou into this, which he himself had never imagined.

Four watch.

Xiao Jingye got up, and since Zhao Yan promised him that Guan Juer's matter would be discussed in the next day, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared with the previous years, this year Xiao Jingye is living quite comfortably. The affairs of the Ministry of Education have basically been assigned, and the New Deal is in full swing. Seeing that the Great Zhou is getting stronger and stronger, he feels that he has stepped into the The threshold of historical names.

As for Yang Xinghuai, he woke up in less than three o'clock.

One is because of excitement, and the other is because of old age and lack of sleep.

After he got up, he picked up the long knife in the training ground in the backyard and practiced.

Years later, Great Zhou is destined to have a war with Liu Hai, and Yang Xinghuai is still preparing to lead the army.

He is eager to participate in this kind of war that is guaranteed to win and save face. The distance between him and the famous generals in history may be short of this war.

At this moment, Kong Moshan got up slowly under the service of two tall maidservants.

At this time in previous years, he was so busy that he couldn't sleep at all, because there were too many places to spend money and too little money in the treasury.

But this year is very different, he will even take the initiative to ask: If you are short of money, let me know, as long as you do things for the country and the people, our treasury is not short of money!
At the fifth watch, all the officials had already gathered outside the palace wall.

When the big drum in the palace beats nine times, Zhao Yan will climb the tower on the palace wall.

Afterwards, hundreds of officials and special envoys from various countries can follow the tower to watch the soldiers drill.

The special envoys from Northern Mongolia, Vientiane, Xilimu, Heihan, Korea, and Liuhai also followed the Baiguan.

Except for Northern Mongolia's special envoy who became Xiong Shen, and Goryeo's special envoy who became an old man with a gray beard, Piao Feinan, the special envoys of the other countries were all old friends of Da Zhou.

Natsume Xuezi of the Liuhai Kingdom is like the top card in the tile, trying every means to build good relations with the countries other than the Great Zhou, obviously to prepare for the war in the next year.

Boom!Boom!Boom!
With the sound of deafening drums came.

Zhao Yan walked slowly from the Daqing Hall and appeared in the center of the tower.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

The moment Zhao Yan appeared on the tower, the civil and military officials below and the people watching not far away knelt down one after another: Three shouts, long live!

These envoys were startled.

In fact, they can kneel or not, but under the sound of mountains roaring and tsunami, they had no choice but to kneel on the ground.

These special envoys could clearly feel that the people worshiped Zhao Yan from the bottom of their hearts.

If anyone has the intention of blaspheming Zhao Yan, they will definitely stand up and stand up.

This kind of extreme worship of the people to the monarch is not found in any of their countries.

Zhao Yan looked down with a smile, raised one hand vainly, and said, "Everyone, get up!"

Suddenly, everyone stood up slowly.

Civil and military officials of the fifth rank and above, special envoys from various countries, and representatives of some aristocratic families also boarded the tower.

The people consciously withdrew to both sides of the street.

Soldiers drills are about to begin.

Roar!
With a loud voice.

Five thousand infantrymen of the imperial army, uniformly dressed in black armor, with long knives in their waists and hips, strode over.

Swish!Swish!Swish!
The movements are uniform, and the 5000 people are like one person.

The self-confidence displayed by the soldiers convinced the people who had seen it that this was an invincible team.

After the infantry, there were five thousand cavalry from the Shence Army.

Then came the Firearms Battalion and the Artillery Battalion.

In this military parade, Zhao Yan kept a low profile and stopped showing the power of firearms and thunder.

Now Da Zhou doesn't need to show or prove his strength to others.

If you dare to provoke me, I will kill you!
Today's Da Zhou comes from the self-confidence in his bones.

After more than an hour, the soldier drill was successfully concluded.

The people around were excited and proud of being born in such a country.

Above the city tower, all the civil and military officials also raised their heads up, very happy, and they also contributed to the great Zhou today.

As for the envoys, their backs were basically soaked.

Because they clearly felt that if Da Zhou really launched a war, their soldiers would be unable to resist it.

If the Lord of Liuhai Kingdom saw Da Zhou's current military appearance, he would never say something like "Liu Hai can fight Da Zhou".

Immediately afterwards, it was time to salute in the Daqing Hall, which is the so-called annual summary and meeting with foreign envoys.

Inside the Daqing Hall.

The civil and military officials stood in two rows, and the six special envoys stood in a corner behind the civil officials.

Zhao Yan sat on the dragon chair, looked around, and then looked at Xizi.

Xizi understood immediately, and said loudly: "The first item of the Yuanri Grand Court Meeting is a gift from foreign envoys!"

Soon, the six special envoys Qiqi came to the center of the hall, and presented the gift list respectively.

Xiong Shen didn't write the "Picture of Recognizing Ancestors and Returning to His Clan" on the gift list, but planned to present it when he was about to leave Changdan.

Zhao Yan roughly scanned the gift list and found that it was the same as in previous years. He immediately put it aside, looked down and said, "Dear foreign envoys, do you have something to convey to me from your monarchs."

The special envoy of Xilimu Jiangyang Dengba paid Zhao Yan a king's gift with the etiquette of their country, and then said flatteringly: "His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou, I, the Lord of Xilimu, would like to express my gratitude to you. If there is no foreign trade of the Great Zhou The economy, our salt, mines, tea, and wine in Xilimu will be in short supply, and Xilimu is willing to be a friendly neighbor of Dazhou forever."

In a small place like Xilimu, Zhao Yan can destroy them with a wave of his hand, so Jiangyang Dengba seized all useful opportunities to curry favor with Da Zhou.

Thousands of wears, no flattery.

Zhao Yan couldn't hear it from ear to ear, and said very grandly: "As long as Xilimu doesn't offend my Da Zhou, we will be a country of friendly neighbors."

At this time, Natsume Yukiko, the special envoy of Liuhai Kingdom, walked out with a twist.

"His Majesty the Great Zhou Emperor, do you still remember the little girl?" Xia Mu Xuezi's voice was crisp and charming, and Zhao Yan almost slipped off the dragon chair.

She can be regarded as No. 1 who can openly molested the emperor in the Daqing Palace.

"Cough cough..."

Zhao Yan coughed dryly and said, "Special Envoy Natsume, please speak carefully."

Suddenly, Natsume Yukiko knelt down, and then raised her voice and said, "Your Majesty, the real culprit of the flood in Caizhou is not me, but Goryeo!"

Hearing this, the Daqing Hall fell silent instantly.

Zhao Yan was also taken aback, and murmured in his heart: Could it be that Liu Hai didn't dare to fight me on the first day, so he wanted to drag Gao Li into the water, and told the story of Liu Hai's king cuckolding the king of Korea?
