Chapter 274 Excited Soldiers, Excited People
Today, the Qin Dynasty is more powerful than any previous dynasty.
The vastness of the territory is beyond the reach of the Xia and Shang capitals, so it is only reasonable to hold a grand military parade.
Moreover, the military parade could bring a lot of benefits, but Ying Zheng did not agree immediately.
Instead, he asked: "Isn't it a bit extravagant?"
According to Ying Yu's proposal, the scale of this military parade was very grand.
Even Meng Tian in Persia County and Han Xin in Tianzhu County will return with some soldiers, which will definitely cost a lot.
"Father, there is no need to worry. Our Daqin has plenty of money now, and the expense of a military parade is nothing at all."
"Besides, this military parade can also boost the tourism economy around Xianyang City and encourage the people of Qin to actively go out of the country and develop newly included areas. This investment can be easily recovered through taxation!"
Ying Yu secretly laughed in his heart.
As the old saying goes, wealth does not return to its hometown, just like walking in brocade at night.
This fully shows that as long as people have a sense of accomplishment, they will want to show off to others.
Even the First Emperor was no exception.
The military parade was the best opportunity for the First Emperor to show the world his reputation as an emperor through the ages. How could Yingzheng miss it?
This was originally a gift prepared by Ying Yu for Da Qin and Ying Zheng.
"In that case, let the prince handle the military parade."
Ying Zheng nodded slightly in agreement.
I couldn't hold back the smile on my face.
There is no way, who made my son so sensible?
...
After the court meeting ended, as expected, news of the military parade spread throughout Xianyang City in less than a day, and then spread to the entire Qin Dynasty.
All the people who heard the news were excited.
Due to the military title system, the martial arts style of the Qin Dynasty has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
The common people are very active in making achievements on the battlefield, hoping to gain fame by killing enemies bravely, and in the future they will have wives and children and achieve a successful career.
Not to mention anything else, even if you get the lowest level of civil servant, you are a hero from all over the country and the envy of everyone.
Even though the literary style of Qin Dynasty has flourished in the past two years, the martial arts culture has not weakened, but has become more prosperous.
County schools and Royal Academy universities all over the country also have courses on military strategy and basic martial arts, and these are also welcomed by most students.
Because if you were illiterate in the past, no matter how many enemies you killed, you would still be a fool, and the promotion of your title to a hairpin would be the end of it.
But those who are both civil and military have the opportunity to become generals, and even have the opportunity to become the commander-in-chief of an army!
In the eyes of the people, Han Xin is the best example.
In the past, Han Xin was just a nobody, with no title and no connections, but now he has become a general guarding one side.
Fan Hui, Zhou Bo, Xia Houying and others also came from grassroots backgrounds, and now they have become generals who can lead troops to fight.
There are vivid examples of this. The proportion of students from county schools and royal academies across Daqin who signed up to join the army continued to rise.
And now, after His Highness the Crown Prince's proposal and the First Emperor's approval, Great Qin will hold a grand military parade in Xianyang City, which will undoubtedly make the heat even more boiling.
This is an opportunity to show his face in front of the First Emperor, the Crown Prince and countless people.
"Haha, this time, I finally have the opportunity to meet my idol Han Xin in person!"
"Isn't your idol His Highness the Crown Prince? Why did he become General Han Xin?"
"What do you know? His Royal Highness is the God of War from heaven. How can we expect that Han Xin and Fan Hui will be like this? This is the goal of my efforts!"
"That's right. In one year, I will be able to graduate. Then I will sign up to join the expeditionary force and go meet those foreign barbarians."
"I told you guys, stop talking nonsense here. You are still in the expeditionary force. Don't you know whether you can graduate?
If you don’t pack up quickly and rush to Xianyang, if you’re late, you probably won’t even have a place to stay!”
Several students who were talking about their ideals suddenly looked embarrassed.
Then he quickly packed his luggage and headed straight to Xianyang City with his division commander.
This scene continued to play out in various counties and counties in Da Qin.
Whether they are students, common people, or businessmen, their faces are all filled with excitement.
...
Persia County, in the governor's mansion.
After reading the news from Fei Ge, Meng Tian's face suddenly showed a hint of admiration.
As the Protector of the Western Regions Protectorate, Meng Tian was very familiar with Mo's Western Region Allied Forces.
These cavalry from various countries in the Western Regions, who were originally forced by the Qin Dynasty, had already been impressed by the Qin Dynasty in the process of following the Qin Dynasty to continuously win and gain rich spoils of war.
Just looking at Tianzhu County, Bo Cai, the former leader of Dayue clan, died of serious injuries because he underestimated the enemy and rushed in.
Not only did the Great Yuezhi cavalry not make any changes, but they happily accepted the reorganization and became the first cavalry regiment affiliated with Great Qin. This shows how much these coalition officers yearn for Great Qin.
While these soldiers sent their trophies back to their home countries, they also spread their worship of Da Qin.
Nowadays, all the soldiers of small countries such as Wusun and Kucha are trying their best to squeeze into the coalition army, hoping to follow the Great Qin in fighting?
Many kings of small countries are extremely envious of King Tuan, who was named Anlehou by Yingzheng and is now spending his old age in Chengyang City, enjoying great comfort.
The nobles in these small countries are even more proud to learn Qin culture and speak Qin language.
And this Xianyang military parade will inevitably increase Da Qin's influence on surrounding countries again.
"General, have you received any new good news?"
Zhou Bo opened the door and walked in with a curious look on his face.
"Second order, each army will take stock of the soldiers who have made meritorious service. Submit the list before dusk and return to Chengyang City with the fleet tomorrow to receive the reward!"
Meng Tian smiled and handed the letter to Zhou Badao.
Zhou Bo's face suddenly showed a look of disbelief.
After reading the letter, my whole body started to tremble with excitement.
This is your chance to truly return home in glory!
Moreover, His Majesty also carefully invited the relatives of all the meritorious soldiers to Xianyang City to participate in this great glory.
Zhou Bo could already imagine how happy his parents, relatives and friends would be at this moment.
Meng Tian smiled and shook his head.
Even Zhou Bo was so happy, so how would the other soldiers behave after knowing the news?
Compared with those soldiers from allied armies who were selected and lucky enough to participate in the military parade, they were bound to be more devoted to Da Qin.
Meng Tian had no doubt that if the monarchs of these small countries dared to oppose the annexation of Da Qin, they would not need Da Qin to take action, and the internal forces would directly want to oust these monarchs from power.
