In Ziwei City, 200,000 imperial guards shouted in unison, deafening, as if the sky was about to collapse!

You can imagine the shocking scene of a hundred thousand soldiers standing in a large square and shouting slogans together.

Then, from far to near, drums were beaten one by one.

This was the stereo surround that Song Zhen deliberately played, reflecting a vague sense of oppression.

He originally wanted to use "March of the Iron Torrent", but was afraid of being censored, so he temporarily changed it to "Trampling Jizhou" in the movie "The First Part of the Investiture of the Gods".

Although the composer is a foreigner, music has no borders, so use it if it is suitable.

This song uses a large number of military instruments to perfectly reflect the oppressive feeling of the army approaching the border and the city. The melody in the second half of the song seems to make people see the fierce scene of the two armies fighting.

Everyone in the square noticed that in the direction of Yingtian Gate, "black clouds pressed down on the city, and the city was about to be destroyed. The armor shone towards the sun, and the golden scales opened."

Walking in the front was Tian Qi, riding a horse, wearing a reinforced Ming Guang armor, holding his head high and holding the Tang Dynasty flag.

[Military flag on the Mogao Grottoes mural]

Tian Qi was almost a giant, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, and a sharp and tough face. He looked down coldly at the foreign envoys on the outermost periphery.

The foreign envoys were frightened by Tian Qi's disdainful contempt, coupled with the murderous music, and their blood was awakened, and they knelt down directly.

The officials of the 360 ​​states of the Tang Dynasty were looking forward to it, and someone exclaimed with a trembling voice, pointing to the front.

"It's the Duke of E! The Duke of E and the Duke of Lu are sitting in the carriage!"

Because Yuchi Gong and Cheng Zhijie were too old, both over 70 years old, Song Zhen thoughtfully equipped them with a carriage pulled by five horses.

The Zhou Li "The emperor drove six horses, the princes drove five, the ministers drove four, the officials drove three, the scholars drove two, and the common people drove one" was restored.

The great military exploits of Duke of E, Yuchi Gong, and Duke of Lu, Cheng Zhijie (Cheng Yaojin), deserved the treatment of driving five horses.

[Key points: The following introduction, the bracketed part is supplemented by the author, which did not happen at the time and was not an on-site explanation. Especially the birth date and age! 】

"Yuchi Jingde (585-658), (shot Li Yuanji to death in the Xuanwu Gate Incident) was known for his bravery and was a master of horse spears! He defeated the Turks and captured Ashide Wumochu. He followed Tian Khan in his expedition to Liaodong and was one of the twenty-four meritorious officials in the Lingyan Pavilion. He was granted the title of Duke of E. "

"Cheng Yizhen (589-665), was brave and good at fighting. He was good at riding horses and stabbing with spears. He followed Tian Khan in defeating Song Jingang, capturing Dou Jiande, and subduing Wang Shichong. He (participated in the Xuanwu Gate Incident) and protected the young current saint (Li Zhi) to return to the court to succeed to the throne. He was one of the twenty-four meritorious officials in the Lingyan Pavilion, the general of the left guard, and was named Duke of Lu."

Li Zhi asked people to conceal the history of the two people's participation in the Xuanwu Gate Incident. After all, this was not a very glorious thing for his father Li Shimin.

After hearing the simple introduction of the two people's achievements, many new officials were in awe! This is the living war god of the Tang Dynasty!

Although Yuchi Gong and Cheng Zhijie are old, their majesty remains unchanged, and their gray hair flutters in the wind under their armor.

Yuchi Junjun's neck was red with excitement. He and Cheng Zhijie's grandson Cheng Boxian, two young men, drove horses for two founding heroes and their grandfathers.

At this time, a loud military bugle sounded and the music became louder.

Li Ji rode a Ferghana horse, and his 21-year-old grandson Li Jingye led the horse and followed the carriage.

"Li Maogong (594-669), followed Tian Khan to pacify the four directions, defeated Xueyantuo twice, and defeated the Eastern Turks (conquered Goguryeo and pacified Qibei). He was one of the 24 heroes in Lingyan Pavilion, the prince's master, and the title of Duke of Ying."

The next general, who was about the same size as Tian Qi, appeared.

"Su Dingfang (592-667), defeated the Eastern Turks, destroyed the Western Turks, quelled the Pamir Rebellion, (annihilated Baekje, attacked Goguryeo, and conquered Tubo), and destroyed three kingdoms in succession, all of which captured their leaders alive. He was the General of the Left Guard and was given the title of Duke of Xing."

When the envoys of the Eastern and Western Turks saw this killing god, they subconsciously shrank their necks and could not help but think of the days when they were forced to study in the Tang army camp.

Unfortunately, Su Lie was blackened too much in the novel "The Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties", and was blackened from the military god of the Tang Dynasty to a villain clown.

Since Pei Xingjian was still an official in the Ministry of Personnel at this time and had not yet made a name for himself, he did not belong to the military camp at this ceremony, but to the civil service camp, and appeared with the carriages of the three provinces and six ministries.

Following Su Lie was the white-clothed war god Xue Li (Xue Rengui). Now he is 43 years old and has already made a name for himself. He only needs a war to be completely deified.

When he appeared, the background music switched to "Listen! The sound of the pipa is melodious, bringing a tense and murderous aura.

"Xue Rengui (614-683), when he first entered the army camp to conquer Liaodong, he was invincible in a white robe, and took the head of the enemy general in the midst of thousands of troops. He was meritorious in protecting the current saint, and went on an expedition to (subdue) Goguryeo and defeated the Turks.

(Greatly defeated the Nine-surname Tiele, good strategies to stop fighting, three arrows to win the country, bravely took back Liaodong, took off his hat to repel thousands of enemies. Right General of the Army, titled Duke of Pingyang.)"

Walking side by side with Xue Li were Cheng Mingzhen, Duke of Dongping, and Wang Xuance, the most powerful man in the Tang Dynasty, who destroyed a country by himself.

The Tang Dynasty did not regard Tianzhu as a strong opponent, so Wang Xuance's victory in Tianzhu was not taken seriously.

It was Song Zhen who insisted on arranging Wang Xuance in the front row. After all, his legendary story was not written in this way in time-travel novels.

Behind him, there were several horses riding side by side. They were Qi Biheli (Duke of Liang), Liu Rengui (Duke of Lecheng), Wang Fangyi (Duke of Taiyuan), Liang Jianfang (Duke of Yanmen), Gao Kan, Cheng Wuting (Duke of Pingyuan), Li Jinxing (Duke of Yan) and other fierce generals.

[The titles of the above generals have not been conferred yet, and they basically have to wait until Goguryeo is over, so they are just ordinary generals in the second year of Xianqing. ]

When each general passes by, the soldiers on both sides immediately salute in unison, watching the general go away.

Of course, the military salute is not the modern salute.

Every general is powerful without anger, they all came out of the bloody battlefield, with a terrifying momentum.

This is the national prestige of the great Tang Dynasty!

National prestige has never been blown up, but earned with extraordinary strength!

In the chat group of generals in the early Tang Dynasty, if you have not destroyed a country, you are embarrassed to stand out Let's talk!

Although the late Tang Dynasty was no longer strong, the early Tang Dynasty was undoubtedly the best in the world!

So, how would the Tang Dynasty at this time compare with other civilizations in the world?

In this era, the Mayans were still playing with mud, using obsidian as weapons, and they couldn't even smelt iron.

Western Europe was in its darkest age, and even the castles were wooden fences, which were not comparable at all.

Eastern Europe had Byzantium, the direct descendant of the Roman Empire's "migration to the south".

However, the popularity of their bows and heavy armor, as well as the number of livestock accompanying the army, was far less than that of the Tang Dynasty.

Why was the Tang army so powerful? A very important factor was that the individual equipment and heavy machinery equipment were far ahead of the world.

The general left the scene Later, Li Zhi originally planned to hold a military parade, which was simply to show off the luxurious equipment and weapons.

The reason for doing this was to show the strength of the Tang Dynasty!

Let the foreign envoys see that there are some gaps that you cannot reach even if you develop for a hundred years.

However, this move was opposed by Li Ji and his generals. They believed that the equipment was a national treasure and could not be easily displayed in front of outsiders?

Song Zhen felt that what they said made sense. After all, this was not a gun or cannon from later generations. No one knew what was wrapped in iron sheets.

Ancient weapons and equipment were still too easy to be copied and imitated.

In the end, Li Zhi was persuaded, the military parade was cancelled, and after the military generals appeared, the civil officials appeared directly.
