At 8 o'clock in the morning on July 1, An Yi convened the Anjiajun Military Committee, the Third Headquarters, the Army, Navy and Air Force Headquarters, as well as the main generals of the military regions, front armies and group armies in the auditorium of the Government Affairs Council in the Datang Palace City to hold a grand awarding ceremony.
The meeting was chaired by Gong Qian, member of the Central Committee and head of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee.
Amidst the majestic military music of "Welcome March", Gong Qian, dressed in a red Tang suit, came to the presiding desk on the side of the rostrum. She waited until the music ended and then said into the microphone:
"Hereby, I announce the order of the Central Committee, the Central Military Commission, the Central Government Committee and the Government Administration Council to confer the military ranks of marshal, general, brigadier general and senior colonel. In order to strengthen the regularization and modernization of the army, according to the new ""
army
and Officers' Service Regulations. On the basis of the original military rank system, the ranks of marshal, general, brigadier general and senior colonel will be added. Today, new military ranks will be awarded to generals who meet the conditions for promotion to generals! Now, the awarding ceremony begins...
Everyone stand up! Play the military song!"
As the military music sounded again, more than a thousand officers of major general and above who attended the meeting stood in order and sang loudly along with the military music.
"Wolf smoke rises, mountains and rivers look north, dragons curl up, horses neigh, and swords are like frost... Horses' hooves go south, and people look north. People look north, and the grass is green and yellow, and the dust is flying. I am willing to defend the land, reopen the borders, and build a dignified China.
I want everyone from all over to come and congratulate me!"
The singing and military music died down, but the generals still felt sorry for themselves, and warm applause filled the auditorium for a long time.
After everyone calmed down, Gong Qian continued:
"Everyone, sit down! Now we invite the Central Committee, the Military Commission and the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Army An Yi to come to the stage to deliver a speech and personally award the titles to the generals who have been promoted!"
An Yi, who was wearing a general uniform without any logo, walked up to the rostrum from the center seat in the front row below and strode to the microphone in the middle. He looked around at the familiar faces and showed a proud smile.
"Brothers, eighteen years ago today, a large-scale party was held at the Nanguan Theater in Guangzhou to wish the Northern Expedition a success. Then on July 9, the Northern Expedition held a swearing-in ceremony at the East Campus in Guangzhou. The swearing-in ceremony ended
after.me
Our third company of engineers was ordered to set off and rush to the junction area between Shaoguan and Chenzhou to carry out tasks such as widening mountain roads and strengthening bridges! Our Anjia Army embarked on the journey from the fiery red July. Fighting in the south and in the north, step by step
Come to today!
"Eighteen years of ups and downs, the Third Company of Engineers, which could not even look down upon a single automobile soldier, has now become a powerful multi-armed force with navy, land and air force, defeating the invincible Japanese, French, and Soviet armies successively.
The German Army and the German Army are the leading military groups in the world today! Our army has achieved the goal of defending the territory and opening up borders as sung in the military song. Congratulations from all directions. We are worthy of our nation, our ancestors, and our people!
"Of course. Achievements can only represent the past. The world war is still going on now, and the war is spreading across lands including Europe, America, Africa, Asia and Australia! Our soldiers still need to face the complex world situation and must not enter with weapons.
Go to the library, let the horse go to Nanshan, stop the pace of progress! Sail against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. I hope that after this award ceremony, all the generals will continue to work hard and strive for greater achievements!"
The audience burst into warm applause, interrupting An Yi's words. After a while, An Yi pressed his hands down, and the auditorium quickly became quiet.
"Okay, today's time is limited, now I will confer the title on the generals who have been promoted to generals! For the other generals who have been promoted, the generals will go back and confer your titles in person! All the generals who have been promoted will come on stage!"
After An Yi finished speaking, the cheerful "Welcome March" sounded again in the auditorium.
Amidst the exciting military music, Hu Jialin, First Vice Chairman of the Military Commission and Minister of National Defense, Yin Jinan, Vice Chairman of the Military Commission and First Secretary of the Northern Bureau, Gu Changfeng, Vice Chairman of the Military Commission and Commander of the Southeast Asian Theater, Li Guang, Vice Chairman of the Military Commission and Commander of the Navy, and Commander of the Indian Ocean Theater
Xia Jian, Secretary-General of the Military Commission
Deng Bin, president of the National Defense University, Yang Fei, deputy chief of the General Staff, Air Force Commander Huang Xuyi, West Asia Theater Commander Ye Cheng, Political Commissar Zhang Chengzhu, Central Asia and Siberia Theater Political Commissar Li Jinlong, a total of eleven generals came to the rostrum.
More than a thousand generals lined up facing the audience.
Seeing that his political commissar had also become a member of the promotion, the eyes of Zhao Rui, the commander of the Central Asia and Siberia theater sitting in the first row of the audience, were full of envy. He knew that if he had not made an oversight regarding Lu Yixuan, he would have
It will also be the upper side. Ding Zhicheng, the reserve commander sitting next to him, is also in a similar situation to Zhao Rui.
An Yi personally communicated with Zhao Rui and Ding Zhicheng. If nothing unexpected happens, the top ten marshals in the future will be selected from the above eleven people, and the remaining one will stop at the generals. At that time, they will also be selected from the generals.
Nine people make up the ten generals in total, and Zhao Rui and Ding Zhicheng are the candidates ranked first and second for promotion.
Other generals include Zhan Dao, Director of the General Political Department, Chang Baofang, Director of the General Logistics Department, Zhao Dongquan, Office Director of the Military Commission, Yang Jie, Huang Zhi, Deputy Chiefs of the General Staff, Yang Jiuxiao, Commander of the Northeast Military Region, Wang Xulun, Commander of the Far East Army, and Min Jingxian, Deputy Commander of the General Staff.
The others, whether in terms of record or qualifications, are worse than the eleven people on the stage, so they don't feel unbalanced.
As for the other lieutenant generals and major generals, they are enthusiastic in their hearts, imagining that one day they will also become generals and personally accept the title of An Yi. What a glorious scene it will be!
The music stopped and An Yi walked to Hu Jialin's side.
Hu Jialin took a step forward and saluted An Yi with a straight military salute. An Yi nodded, stretched out his right hand, and shook Hu Jialin's hands tightly. He also lightly patted the back of Hu Jialin's left hand with his left hand, his eyes filled with joy.
Praise and encouragement!
After Hu Jialin retreated, An Yi came to Yin Jinan's side again. Yin Jinan also took the initiative to step forward and saluted An Yi respectfully. An Yi smiled and shook hands with Yin Jinan, with a cordial look on his face.
After shaking hands with the eleven people one by one, Shen Fengdao, who was wearing a general's military uniform, came to the stage with eleven heroic female soldiers from the art troupe. Each female soldier was holding a dress inlaid with four golden pentagons.
An Yi walked back to Hu Jialin and took the military rank from Shen Fengdao. He first took off the general rank inlaid with three gold stars from Hu Jialin's shoulders, and then personally put the general rank on him.
It took half an hour for An Yi to confer titles on the eleven newly promoted generals. The audience burst into applause.
When the eleven generals stepped down from the rostrum, and An Yi was about to leave, Gong Qian suddenly said into the microphone: "According to the decision jointly made by all members of the Central Committee, the Central Military Commission, the Central Government Committee, and the Government Affairs Council, we will put the unique
The rank of Generalissimo was awarded to Chairman An Yi. I hope our commander-in-chief can lead us from one victory to another. Everyone welcomes him!"
An Yi was stunned for a moment. According to the meeting agenda he got, there was no such item at all. He couldn't help but look at Gong Qian in confusion. He didn't know who was qualified to award him a military rank.
At this time, Gong Qian was already holding a tray in both hands and came to the center of the rostrum with a sweet smile.
Lao Shoudao, member of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee, Chairman of the Disciplinary Committee and Minister of Supervision, dressed in a Taoist robe with an immortal style, came to An Yi from the backstage like a banished immortal, smiled and picked up the huge national emblem inlaid from the tray in front of Gong Qian.
The golden military rank and collar badge were worn carefully by An Yi.
The audience burst into thunderous applause again.
An Yi smiled bitterly in his heart. He didn't expect that Lao Dao and Sister Qian would play such a trick on him. They must have discussed it first and submitted it to the Central Committee, the Central Military Commission, the Central Government Committee, and the Government Affairs Council for a meeting and approval. But things have already happened.
At this time, my objection made me appear to be narrow-minded, so I just smiled and let the old man put it on me.
The awarding ceremony was completed. After consulting An Yi for his opinion, Gong Qian said into the microphone:
"I declare that the investiture ceremony is officially over! It is now 8:45 in the morning. We have an hour to go to the Datang Palace Tower in front to meet with central and local government officials, representatives of the industrial and commercial circles, cultural circles, workers and farmers.
Let’s review our powerful army together! After the military parade, the generals can move about on their own, but you have to rush back at six o’clock in the evening. Commander An will host a banquet in Furong Garden to get drunk with his comrades! "
Cheers rang out in the auditorium, An Yi smiled and waved to the audience, and then walked with everyone to the Datang Palace Tower in front.
The palace towers of the Tang Dynasty were composed of Guangyun Gate, Chengtian Gate, Changle Gate and Jiafu Gate from west to east. An Yi and a group of generals came to the position between Chengtian Gate and Changle Gate. Prime Minister Xu Ziliang of the Government Affairs Council had already brought the main officials of the government.
The person in charge is waiting there.
When representatives from all walks of life saw An Yi, they rushed forward and shook hands with An Yi cordially.
After arriving at the center of the rostrum, An Yi spent some time chatting with special representatives and diplomatic envoys from the United States, the United Kingdom, Free France and other countries, as well as dignitaries from the contracting states of the Karachi System who were invited to attend this event.
Half a million people from all walks of life have gathered in the million-person square at Simen. The crowds are crowded. Together with An Yi, they will witness the heyday of An Jiajun's military appearance.
This military parade is still conducted in accordance with the military parade and line-up procedures. Among them, the military parade is carried out in a static state. All the troops being reviewed are centered on the four gates of the Tang Dynasty Palace and lined up on both sides of the east and west main roads in order to accept An Yi
The review was carried out in a marching state, and each troop under review passed in front of the four-gate tower from east to west to receive the review.
At ten o'clock, An Yi personally pressed the button and raised the national flag amidst the melodious national anthem "My Motherland". Afterwards, An Yi walked down the tower, rode in a military parade vehicle, and inspected the troops of the army, navy and air force.
Read the square array.
At 10:45, the series begins.
The first to pass through the National Mall was the naval formation. Although the navy is a junior in the Anjia military sequence, its development is not weak at all. The ship review held in Nanhua Bay in March has already allowed the great powers to see the take-off of the Eastern Dragon.
The subsequent Indian Ocean War fully verified that the combat effectiveness of the Anjiajun Navy was not as vulnerable as the outside world had speculated.
During the review, the first thing the navy phalanx passed was the phalanx of naval cadets. Their steps were uniform, horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, no matter which direction they looked from, it was a straight line, which made everyone feel a strong shock.
.
Behind the phalanx of naval cadets were twelve large naval battleships, aircraft carriers, cruisers and destroyers loaded with heavy-duty vehicles. The commentator briefly introduced the data of these battleships. The reporters set up long guns and short cannons.
Keep shooting.
While the ship model was passing by, the naval aviation force flew fifteen carrier-based fighter jets, fifteen bombers and torpedo planes each, forming three echelons. They flew over the National Mall from low altitudes and at small distances one by one, triggering loud shouts from half a million people.
cheer.
Marching at the end of the naval phalanx was an infantry unit wearing marine camouflage. They held weapons and walked solemnly through the square avenue. After a brief introduction by the commentator, people knew that these were officers and soldiers of the mysterious Marine Corps.
.
Following the navy was the army.
The first to appear was naturally the armored force. The troops being reviewed were mainly from the 1st to 4th Tank Armies of West Asia. In order not to affect the combat effectiveness of the troops, each armored division only sent one or two battalions to Chang'an for training.
The tanks, armored vehicles, rocket launchers, artillery and other weapons and equipment displayed this time are all new products received from the Logistics Department. The armored soldiers who returned from the front line on special planes were extremely experienced. After receiving the equipment, they simply adapted.
After another month of intensive training, I now understand these big guys as deeply as I understand my own body.
The rolling iron flow composed of two hundred and fifty armored vehicles of various types makes people marvel at it.
Behind the armored troops came a team composed of trucks and trailers. The truck compartments were filled with officers and soldiers wearing tan camouflage uniforms. Each of them held a rifle in their right hand and an engineer shovel in their left hand.
When the convoy passed in front of the rostrum, following the commander's order, the soldiers flattened the engineers on their left hands to their chests and looked towards the direction of the rostrum. This is the engineer unit that Anjiajun is proud of.
.
Behind the engineer formation was the cavalry parade unit.
This unit mainly comes from the Mongolian Military Region. They are organized into six square formations. Each square formation is composed of military horses with the same coat color. Viewed from the side, the cavalry and war horses are in a straight line and the formation is neat. The commander of the cavalry unit being reviewed
Holding a large flag with a red background, everyone in the cavalry team carried a gun on their shoulders and held a saber, all moving in unison.
Everyone was surprised to find that in such a big scene and with so many people, except for the reviewing officer's simple order and the commentator's introduction, the huge number of people being reviewed actually remained silent.
This silence makes people feel an indestructible force!
When the cavalry was being paraded, three squadrons of armed helicopters flew in the sky. The huge roar of engines and the strong wind when the propellers turned made everyone in the square feel trembling from the bottom of their hearts.
The last one to be inspected was the Anjia Army Air Force.
Flying in front was the lead group escorted by three An7 transport aircraft and four A29 fighter jets, followed by four dive bomber squadrons, four fighter squadrons and four attack aircraft squadrons.
The aviation force being reviewed consisted of 185 aircraft in total. Of course, no one saw that there were two early warning aircraft commanding and coordinating the flight formation at an altitude of 10,000 meters.
None of the guests, whether they were the foreign guests watching the ceremony on the rostrum or the reporters from various news agencies who came to interview, were not too surprised. After all, the Anjiajun Air Force was famous, and it was normal to have such a scale of aircraft. The war was on its fifth day.
Over the past year, large battles involving thousands of fighter planes have broken out many times, and people have become numb.
While the aircraft fleet was flying over in the sky, what was passing through the National Mall on the ground was an infantry unit carrying umbrellas, holding light weapons, and some personnel driving light motor vehicles.
After the introduction by the commentator, people knew that this was the airborne force of the Anjia Army, which had already shined in the previous Battle of Two Rivers and the liberation of Hainan.
After two and a half hours of review, the military parade ended successfully.
Little did the guests know that none of the Anjia Army's latest weapons appeared in this military parade, but even the current situation was enough to boost the morale of the military and civilians across the country.
