As Liu Shuying introduced the troops one by one on the speakers, the officials watching the military parade finally turned their attention from the drones in the sky and looked at the troops.

After the Royal Guards passed by, came the Praetorian Guards.

All the Imperial Guards wore flying saucer hats - not the shallow flying saucer hats of the Meng Yuan Dynasty, but rather deep helmets with short brim, three neck guards on the left, right and back, and a buckle-type throat guard, which was also used on the top of the head.

A hatpin used to identify military rank and team affiliation.

The overall look is somewhat close to the Qing army helmet, but there are obvious differences.

In fact, the style of Qing army helmets was inherited from the Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties.

As for the armor, all members wore plate armor on top of red cloth armor. As they marched, bright silver and fiery red merged into one piece, like ice and fire!

The border guards after the Praetorian Guard also had similar equipment, except that the musketeers and artillerymen in the troops only wore fine cloth face armor instead of plate armor, and the hat pins of the flying saucer hats were different.

Equally eye-catching are the artillery formations of the Praetorian Guards and Border Guards.

There are dozens of Guangming artillery pieces carried on artillery carts pulled by horses, as well as French cannons that are pushed and pulled forward by soldiers on the artillery carts, and tiger crouching artillery pieces that are carried forward by two soldiers, etc.

As for the last people who came to the Meridian Gate, there were a thousand Nanjing garrison soldiers.

Compared with the imperial guards and border guards, the Nanjing garrison still wears the previous Ming army armors, but they are all brand new and of high quality.

These thousand people were elites selected from the garrisons of the four towns in Nanjing, and had been specially trained to march in formation to participate in the military parade. When they walked over, it gave the viewer the feeling that a thousand people were walking as if they were one person.

When they arrived at the designated location and stopped, like the imperial guards, imperial guards, and border guards in front, they stamped their feet together under the leadership of the officers, causing the ground to tremble slightly, and shouted "Tiger Tiger Tiger" three times in a row.

.

This scene actually made many Ming officials burst into tears.

Because the uniforms of the garrison were exactly the same as the officers and soldiers they were familiar with, but now they looked completely different from the officers and soldiers of the past. Many civil servants could not help but think of the heroic appearance and demeanor of the elite officers and soldiers in the early years.

Until the last thousand man-made garrison troops entered the scene, many officials' attention had not yet been drawn away from the emotion brought by the garrison.

Zhu Yuluo was the one that every army paid attention to.

The Gongtun Army is no longer a fighting force, but a pure labor force. Therefore, from generals to soldiers, everyone wears fiery red war robes without armor.

Moreover, what the soldiers held in their hands were not weapons, but a batch of Ming engineering shovels brought over by the Sichuan fleet - they were not as advanced as the later engineer shovels, but they also had the functions of shovels and knives.

These thousands of workers and garrison troops were also elites selected from tens of thousands of people at the same time and received special training. This military parade gave people the feeling that they should not be underestimated.

It is also possible to let them wear armor and say that they are the elite of other local government troops.

When the military parade ceremony came to an end, Zhu Yurao used the wireless microphone connected to the loudspeaker in the square in front of the Meridian Gate to give a speech.

At the same time, the ten drones that had completed the flight demonstration were grouped into groups and cruised around the city of Nanjing, using small on-board speakers to broadcast Zhu Yurao's speech to the entire city of Nanjing with a delay.

Also because there were many people in Nanjing in the audience, Zhu Yuyao's speech was relatively straightforward——

"I, the daughter of the late emperor, Princess Zhu Ainao of Kunxing, got the favor of heaven. After the capital was conquered by the puppets, I traveled thousands of miles to Sichuan to supervise the country and preserve the foundation of our Ming Dynasty.

Knowing that the Qing captives wanted to go south and devour the south of the Yangtze River, I led an army of 100,000 people on land and water to move eastward along the Yangtze River.

Zuo Liangyu occupied Wuchang with 800,000 troops and blocked the Yangtze River. I pacified and conquered it.

The hypocritical Li Chuang led an elite force of 100,000 thieves to attack Wuchang. He wanted to cross the Yangtze River and take the south of the Yangtze River. I resisted and defeated Li Chuang so that he did not dare to go south.

After that, he met Jing Nanbo, controlled the city of Nanjing, and defeated hundreds of thousands of Qing captives in the battle of Yangzhou. Only then did he stop the Qing captives from planning to devour the south of the Yangtze River, and saved thousands of miles of land for our Ming Dynasty!

However, the Qing captives were still raging in the north, and the hypocrites also occupied Hubei. In the Ming Dynasty, there were still countless thieves and bandits in the mountains and rivers. There were also warlords in various places who did not obey the orders of the imperial court and separated their regimes, brutally harming the people.

Many of my people in the Ming Dynasty, your compatriots, even relatives, friends, and villagers are still being watched, maimed, and even eaten by these tigers, leopards, and wolves.

Therefore, from the day I succeed to the throne, I hope that the ministers, soldiers, and people from all walks of life in the Ming Dynasty can join hands and work together with me to restore the peace and stability of the Ming Dynasty.

After the Tartars are driven out, the hypocrites are put down, and the tigers, leopards, and wolves that harm the people are wiped out, I will definitely lead our Ming Dynasty to unprecedented prosperity and strength, and let the people of my Ming Dynasty live a good life of real peace, happiness, and prosperity!"

···

On the street, Chen Bangyan was stunned again when he heard the loud, crisp, and majestic speeches from the drone overhead.

The surrounding scholars, businessmen, craftsmen, traffickers, poor people, etc., all kinds of Ming people were also stunned.

One is shocked by the "magic" of the "magic bird" transmitting the emperor's speech.

The second is to fall into the understanding and thinking of Zhu Yuluo's speech, or to be immersed in the emotions contained in the words.

"I will definitely lead my Ming Dynasty to unprecedented prosperity and strength, and let the people of my Ming Dynasty live a good life of real peace, happiness and prosperity!"

After hearing these last words and watching the "magic bird" fly away, people came back to their senses one after another.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

I don’t know who was the first person to think of kneeling in reverse at the Forbidden City and shouting this.

Then more and more people knelt down in the direction of the Forbidden City and shouted the same thing...

Imperial City.

After Zhu Yushuo finished speaking, he left the Meridian Gate Tower, entered the Forbidden City, and went to Fengtian Hall.

After she sat on the dragon throne in Fengtian Hall, all the civil and military officials in Nanjing who were qualified to participate in the worship also lined up in groups from Fengtian Hall, almost all the way to Fengtian Gate.

After the last few small procedures were carried out in Fengtian Hall, such as receiving the "Jade Seal", the civil and military officials, led by Han Zanzhou, the eunuch who was responsible for the ceremony, bowed to Zhu Yu'ao and bowed to the new emperor.

And shouted again and again——

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

At the same time, waves of loud shouts like waves were faintly heard outside the Forbidden City——

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

"All the ministers are equal!"

Because there was a small microphone hanging on Zhu Yu's collar, the clear voice of her words was transmitted to the grand Fengtian Hall and the large square in front of the hall through the influence of the arrangement.

All the ministers were awe-struck when they heard the voice, and they all said "Thank you, Your Majesty" before standing up one after another.

Immediately, Zhu Aelao issued a series of formal imperial edicts issued by her new emperor.

Such as the previous appointments of ministers, ministers and other officials, as well as the formation of the cabinet, the promotion of cabinet ministers to offices and titles, and the awards of various generals.

The most important one among them is undoubtedly the imperial decree on changing the reign name.

Zhu Yuluo had naturally discussed such an important matter with the ministers long ago.

First of all, since Zhu Yousong has been designated as a false emperor, the Hongguang reign associated with him should be revoked and should not be recorded in official history.

It happened that the late emperor Chongzhen died in Beijing last year, and now it is the second year. Therefore, Zhu Ayao did not have to wait until he succeeded to the throne, and he could directly change the Yuan Dynasty.

After seeing the reign names recommended by many ministers, Zhu Yurao and Hao Guangming discussed it and finally selected the two words that would accompany her throughout her entire career as emperor - Zhaowu!

Zhao Zhao Ming, Wu Yao Qianqiu!
