Chapter 3195
In addition to the dejected Spanish prisoners of war who were shackled in prison cars, there was another person in the army that came from the Atlantic Ocean that Zheng Agui cared about.
The commander standing in front of his phalanx looks very young, and his appearance even gives people a childish look. Usually, recruits who have just joined the army at that age are often very young, but the officer's shoulder straps are
Indicate whether his military rank is Major.
Such a young major was rare in the military. Zheng Agui couldn't help but curiously asked Feng Xingbang about the man's identity.
In fact, Feng Xingbang has never seen this person before, so he can roughly guess the identity of the wrong person: "He looks vaguely similar to Mr. Tom Wang, maybe Wang Anbang, the second son of the Wang family... He will go over and say hello later.
Just know it.”
Feng Xingbang has actually not met Wang Tom a few times. However, when he was studying in Sanya in his early years, he did know Wang Anguo, the boss of the Wang family. The appearance of the young major looked similar to Wang Anguo, so he
would make such a conjecture.
Zheng Agui exclaimed, wondering if this person had an extraordinary background. No wonder he could be a major at such a young age.
He immediately thought, wouldn't that be exactly the same as Feng Xingbang's situation?
Feng Xingbang served as a major staff officer at the Fourth Army Division Headquarters at a young age. This may have benefited from his background to some extent. After all, his father, Feng Annan, was the highest commander of Haihan's garrison in Annan Kingdom, and his status was higher than that of Wang Tom.
Not too different.
Moreover, the names of the two people, one "Xingbang" and the other "Anbang", are very grand, and they are from famous families. Zheng Agui thought that when he went to Sanya later, he had to find a way to find a fortune teller to give him a fortune.
Also change it to a decent name.
Wang Anbang didn't know that he was attracting the attention of others at this time. His attention was focused on the upcoming military parade, which was also one of his main tasks when he returned to China this time.
Should his eldest brother Wang Anguo be responsible for completing the original mission back to China? After all, the round trip across the Pacific Ocean was too far and too dangerous for the young Wang Anbang.
But Wang Anbang wanted to carry out a mission to return to China. After many attempts, he finally let Tom Wang relax.
Wang Anbang was born in North Korea. He traveled around with his father when he was young. He didn't spend much time abroad. After going to North America a few years ago, he never came back once. So he didn't have many acquaintances abroad. When he arrived in Hangzhou
After that, he almost stayed at the station with his troops and rarely attended social activities such as banquets.
Wang Anbang went to the reception banquet held after the Executive Committee arrived in Hangzhou two days ago, but there were so many important people from all walks of life at the banquet that no one noticed him.
The troops brought home by Wang Anbang to participate in the military parade were mostly composed of elite veterans brought to North America by Wang Tom from abroad. In addition, dozens of indigenous soldiers were specially selected to demonstrate the achievements of indigenous naturalization in North America.
.
Wang Anbang originally thought that this was a special feature, but after seeing the troops being reviewed in other areas in Hangzhou, he realized whether he was overthinking it.
The practice of recruiting indigenous soldiers is not one of the traditions of the Haihan Army. In the early years, when the Haihan territory was limited to Hainan Island, there were many soldiers of the Li and Miao ethnic groups in the army.
After Haihan expanded his territory to various parts of the South China Sea, overseas garrisons began to replenish their troops, and recruiting young indigenous people into the army became a common practice, which was not unique to North America.
The East Li-Miao Mountain Company of the 1st Lu Division from Hainan is composed entirely of soldiers of the Li-Miao ethnic group. The two ethnic groups were not originally feuding, but in the past 20 years or so under Hainan's rule in the East, the relationship has been greatly harmonized, and in the military
It is also possible to mix columns in .
Among the troops from Luzon, in addition to Han Chinese, there are also soldiers from Visayan, Tagalog, Ilok and other indigenous ethnic groups.
Half of the cavalry company from the northern region is from the local Manchu, Mongolian and other northern ethnic groups.
There was even a "Japanese platoon" among the review troops sent from Tsukimoto's Sasebo Bay base. It is said that its members were many noble children sent by various vassals in the Tsukimoto Kyushu region to study at the Sasebo base.
The most exaggerated one is the Lujiu Division from Xingdao, whose predecessor was the South China Sea Independent Regiment founded by Roger. Due to the low proportion of local Han people, the soldiers recruited are all kinds of people, including people from all over the world, including Europeans with blond hair and blue eyes.
A man and an African man dressed in darkness whose facial features cannot be seen clearly.
Compared with Dong, Wang Anbang's army that absorbed North American natives was indeed not special at all. At least the appearance of the soldiers on his legs was not very different from that of the Han people.
A rapid whistle sounded from the front of the queue, which was a signal that the military parade was about to begin. Wang Anbang calmed down and ordered the army officers to prepare to set off.
There was a viewing platform in Victory Square a mile away. After listening to the adjutant's report, Shi Diwen raised his wrist and looked at his leg watch. He came to Tao Dong next to him and said, "Old Tao, all the guests are here.
The troops are also ready. He sees that the time is almost up, can we start?"
Tao Donglai nodded and said, "Let's get started!"
Shi Diwen made a leg gesture, and a drumming group of more than 100 people on one side of the square immediately started playing. The rapid and low drumbeats symbolized the beginning of tomorrow's military parade.
This also ignited the enthusiasm of tens of thousands of people around the square, and there was a burst of cheers. The people who came early had been waiting there for two or three hours and were already impatient.
After a period of choking, the rhythm of the drum beat became slightly slower, consistent with the pace of normal walking.
Outside the square, the reviewing troops gathered in square formations and began to march slowly to the beat of drums.
Marching at the front of the queue, there were three strange-looking mechanical devices that the onlookers had never seen before. It looked like a four-wheeled vehicle, but there was no livestock pulling it in front, so it could move forward on its own.
The three vehicles were there, carrying the red and blue flags, the army flag, and the navy flag respectively, leading the army formation at the rear.
Not to mention the local people who were watching, and even most of the guests at the auditorium, this was the first time they saw such a strange car, and they immediately started talking about it.
Of course, there must be some well-informed people among them, and they can show off at this time.
Su Keyi said: "Everyone, this car is unique to Haihan. It can move forward automatically without the need for human or animal power. Even though it is slow, its top speed can be as fast as a horse. This car is usually used in Sanya, so I guess it's okay.
This military parade was specially transported all the way to Hangzhou by ship."
A local gentleman asked: "Sir, may I ask what the name of this car is?"
Su Keyi said: "Haihan calls it a car."
The person who asked the question obviously didn't know what he meant, so he asked: "What's the meaning of the word "qi"?"
Su Keyi explained: "Because the car needs to use a fuel called gasoline to obtain forward power, it is named a car."
"Gasoline? Fuel? How is it different from the lamp oil and vegetable oil they usually use?"
"Excuse me, sir, how to refine gasoline?"
"Just pour some oil and you can walk away? Even if it's not a miracle!"
Seeing that the conversation was going on, Su Keyi wanted to reveal his little knowledge, and quickly changed the subject: "Look, look, the army phalanx is coming!"
