Law of the Devil Chapter 145: [Blood Day] (on)
Chapter 145 [Blood Day] (on)
Looking at the thick black cloud floating in the sky, the old smoke squinted his eyes, raised his hand to cover his eyebrows, and carefully sighed for a while, then sighed, "Hey, it seems to be getting worse. . "
He then glanced at his men. The leader of the commander just came over and inspected it, and left with satisfaction.
At this moment ... I guess it must be lively in the central square. Lao Yan could not help but tiptoe, looking far away from the end of Long Street, the location of the central square. The sound of wind was faintly clamoring, exclaiming, and shouting ...
Lao Yan and his subordinates belong to the "King of the Imperial Guard" known as the most elite of the entire empire. The predecessor was the famous "Bronze Flower Army" in the founding era. But Lao Yan and his men were not under the jurisdiction of the Guards Corps. Although he and his troops belonged to the name of the Wangcheng Guards, according to the historical practice of the empire, they only accepted the order of the next emperor! Because they are carefully selected, their net worth is innocent, and their ancestors 'three generations' data are clearly investigated.
Compared with those of the Kings Guards Corps, the old smoker ’s puppets are twice as high as those of the same ranks of the Guards Corps. Even the feed that the war horses eat is first-rate. At the same time, priority is given to changing equipment every year, and there are various royal rewards. Such favorable conditions are to guarantee the absolute loyalty of this army to the emperor himself!
Because they are the so-called "Royal Army" and they are dedicated to guarding the palace.
There are a large number of King City Guards in the street behind. It is really strange today. With a special order, the King City Guards replaced the responsibility of the security forces of the Security Department to maintain order. But old smoke will not bother about these things. Just wait for things to end today. Then the busy period of time can come to an end. According to the management, after the annual celebration, His Majesty will give a lot of rewards in the Royal Forest Army. If you are lucky, maybe you can get a title of nobility.
Lao Yan carefully considered his qualifications. He came from a fallen aristocratic family, and because he was not the eldest son. Without the title of aristocracy, he has served in the Imperial Army for twelve years, but only became a captain. If you are lucky this time, you may be rewarded with a title of "Jazz" according to your years of service in the Royal Forest.
"Sir Sir", what a nice name.
Lao Yan rubbed his numb legs. Fortunately, now it seems that the sun is blocked by dark clouds ... It's so hot today, but it's been standing here for a morning like a wooden stake.
But that's lucky ... Lao Yan looked back at a group of real Guard soldiers who were maintaining order. Those soldiers wore heavily armored armor. The tense procession was maintaining order, blocking the crowds of people watching on both sides of the long street. It ’s so pitiful to wear such heavy armor in such hot weather.
But none of those guys seemed to show dissatisfaction, everyone was fortitude.
The old smoke couldn't help wondering: When did those guys in the Wangcheng Guards become so powerful? I am afraid these people are newcomers who have just changed from the Northwest or North Storm Corps recently? There are only real soldiers trained in dangerous places. Only such a banner.
"These poor guys." Old Yan shrugged his lips dismissively. Although they are also part of the Guards, the Royal Guards never look down on those city guards, because after all they are guarding the palace! And from the point of view of equipment, they are much more beautiful than those of the city guards. Although it is also the armor of the Guardian style. However, today the Royal Forest soldiers are wearing light armor, and the shiny armor looks as if it is plated with silver, which looks very chic. The lined clothes are specially made by the court's clothing and spinning The ground, the straight neckline, and the helmet with a special dyed golden feather, you know, just to dye the golden feathers on all the helmets of the Imperial Army. The Royal Dyeing Factory started working for three days and three nights with full power!
When the breeze blew, Jin Yu shook slightly, and the cloak fluttered behind him ... The old smoke had clearly noticed that in the crowd around, there were many girls with crimson faces who looked at them from time to time.
Although ... such a specially made armor seems to the veteran like Lao Yan to be a bit flashy. That thin silver armor was not really silver plated. But at the cost of thinning the armor. Make a layer of dye, such armor. Rather than a protective effect, it is purely for the sake of good looks. Such a thin layer, old smoke doubts, I am afraid that a long sword equipped with the Imperial Army standard can easily penetrate it!
But ... leave him alone! Anyway, wearing this stuff today is not for fighting, just for good looks.
Yes, that's right! To look good!
Lao Yan was energized. A square array of four brigade Yu Linjun was waiting for his order. The thousand "disguises" of Lao Yan where the old Yanlin Army was renewed is the finale of today ’s parade ceremony.
This is a small square two kilometers to the left of the central square below the palace. To say it is small is only relative to the huge central square.
This square is called Victory Square and it is also one of the three major squares of the Imperial City. According to the arrangements, today's celebration parade, all the teams preparing to parade are gathered in this Victory Square, and then wait for orders, and then go up one after another.
In front of the Royal Forest where Lao Yan is located, there is a thousand-man infantry square, but that belongs to the Wangcheng Guards. As the emperor's garrison army, the parade of the Wangcheng Guards was in front of the Royal Forest Army, which was the second-to-last rank of the entire army. This ranking is already important.
Lao Yan looked at the murderous equipment of the Guards, and could not help but sigh: "Well, how they are wearing standard combat equipment ... Well, they even brought their bows and arrows ... Yi? Also equipped Short crossbow? My God, these bits and pieces, and such a heavy armor, aren't you tired? Are you not going to fight ... "
Behind the Royal Forest where Lao Yan is standing, there is a civil parade square.
According to tradition, in order to celebrate the summer festival day, the eighteen largest chambers of commerce in the capital will jointly organize a parade. This is also the best stage for chambers of commerce to show their strength. Each year, these chambers of commerce spend their capital and make The latest, most fun, and most fancy parade floats ...
Well, last year's float of the Solomon family won the guess! I remember last year, Solomon ’s genius thought of an idea, and he made a series of floats that are as big as the opera stage. The platform was squared up, and then the actors put on the costumes, and the floats paraded all the way. The actor was performing all the way out of a short temporary compilation. Some praise the great achievements of His Majesty the Emperor Aragon, as well as the legendary story of the rise of the Augustine family.
But the most outstanding one last year was the last performance of the story of the victory of the Northwest War twenty years ago. The float made the emperor very happy. It is said that each actor got one hundred gold coins. Reward.
I don't know what new tricks the Solomon family will make this year? Marquis Solomon was his Majesty's friend when he was young, and he was also in charge of the royal industry and the chamber of commerce in the Imperial City. He was the number one ... ? ? ?
Lao Yan is turning back to find Solomon's parade float this year, and it was found effortlessly!
This is very strange, because according to the status of the Solomon Family Chamber of Commerce, it should be second to none, and it should be the last one. But the strange thing is that this year's arrangement is different. The floats of the Solomon family are closely arranged behind the Royal Forest Army. They are actually the first appearance of the folk floats? This is too disgraceful! Lao Yan sighed in his heart.
What's even more strange to him is that this year's float of the Solomon family is too strange!
Good guy!
What is this float? In terms of volume, they are actually bigger than those mobile stages last year! It's just a bare part of the top. There is nothing to decorate the scenery, not even the most basic flower ribbons! It's just such a large, bare wood ... well, it's like a large coffin that has been enlarged dozens of times!
Bare and dim, nothing gorgeous!
This is the float of the Solomon family this year?
The old smoke widened his eyes. These huge coffins are made of wooden boxes with a few wheels under them ... Solomon's family planned to push these things forward to let His Majesty see? Damn it ...
Just as he thought about it suddenly, suddenly in the distance ahead, at the position of the central square under the palace, there was a sudden exclaiming! The screams of countless people gathered together, coming from afar, like the buzzing sound of a bee colony!
There was no festive joy or celebration in that voice, but it was full of surprise ... even fear!
What happened? Lao Yan stood upright subconsciously, and his subordinates looked at each other. What happened to the central square?
But at this moment, the loud horn sounds from the square!
When Lao Yan heard the horn sound, his face suddenly changed slightly ... what's the sound of this?
The sound is two long and one short ...
Hell! This is Charge! What to do on the celebration day! !!
Just as the old smoke struck God, suddenly, an exclaimed and angry roar came from the front of the Yulin Army queue! The scene was suddenly chaotic!
"Killed! Killed!"
"The Guards have rebelled !!!"
"These people are crazy !!!"
