Chapter 536 The Military Parade Begins (Part 1)
This morning's gift and tonight's dinner can actually only be regarded as appetizers before the meal and dessert after the meal.
The highlight and most important event today is the military parade this afternoon.
While this morning's tribute was in progress, Ed, the general director of the parade, held a final mobilization meeting.
In front of more than a hundred relevant responsible officials, Ed dropped his harsh words——
Today's military parade is not only to celebrate the birthday of the royal granddaughter Ilsa, but also to show the spies of the vassal and enemy countries that Britannia's enemy country is powerful. It is an extremely important political task and must be foolproof. ! If there is any mistake that causes the Britannia Empire to lose face in front of other countries, then commit suicide and apologize!
After saying these harsh words to the relevant responsible officials, Ed gave each of them a dagger - for them to use to apologize if something went wrong.
For this reason, Ed gave each of them a dagger, and everyone's nerves became tense.
The importance of this military parade cannot be overstated.
Most of the national delegations from across the continent have come here, and even the grassland people from the Far East have sent people over. If something really goes wrong, you can really apologize by committing suicide.
As early as three days ago, Ed ordered all relevant responsible officials not to go home, but to stay at their respective positions and supervise preparations around the clock.
All the troops participating in the military parade put on freshly forged black armor.
Weapons and other items have been replaced with the latest products.
In order to increase their momentum, all the cavalry troops were replaced by black horses.
The marching path of the troops is as follows: first prepare the troops on the western outskirts of Pendragon.
First the troops of the Knights of Rachel came in, then it was the turn of the Knights of Gabriel, and finally it was the turn of the Knights of Michael.
After the review of the troops of the three major knights was completed, it was the turn of the armored warriors, the royal guards and other troops to review.
The troops first entered through the west gate, walked through a specially planned route, and arrived at the White Field in the center of Pendragon.
When passing by the White Square, Her Majesty Ilsa, His Majesty the Emperor and His Majesty Gale, who were standing on the northernmost balcony of the White Square, would wave to the various troops.
The soldiers of each unit need to shout and shout to the people standing on the platform, shouting with momentum and making noise.
Finally, cross the White Square, walk through the specially planned route, and walk out of the east gate.
The process is that simple.
But whether it can be done well depends on whether there are any omissions in each process and whether each unit can do it well.

April 27, 291 in the Imperial Calendar of the Britannia Empire.
Afternoon, 13:26.
At this time, the sky was clear and the sun was scorching.
Although it is not yet the summer month, the day is as hot as summer.
The temperature of the sun made the air scorch. There was still a little time before the parade started, and the busy staff were sweating from exhaustion.
After the gift ceremony this morning, everyone only had lunch and took a brief rest, then walked into the White Square and prepared to start the most important and grandest event of the day - the military parade.
Gozevin was still wearing the dress he wore this morning, but around his waist was the imperial sword passed down from generation to generation by the royal family of the Britannia Empire.
When it was almost 13:30, I, Ilsa and Gale boarded the six black horses and set off from Baiyang Palace towards the White Field.
The ministers, nobles, and delegations from various countries, including Su Cheng, had all stood on the newly repaired and raised platform at the northernmost end of the white field.
The people responsible for driving are loyal Guards soldiers.
In addition to the Guards soldier who was responsible for driving, there were a total of 16 Guards soldiers who had also put on the latest armor and weapons and rode black horses to guard the carriage, escorting Gozevin and the others. The carriage with three people drove out of the Baiyang Palace and entered the White Square.
The area around the White Square was already crowded with Pendragon citizens who came to watch the military parade.
In order to ensure that the military parade proceeds smoothly and that citizens will not interfere with the parade, Ed, the general person in charge of the military parade, specifically asked the mayor of Pendragon to strengthen security measures and form a thick crowd. chain, separating the citizens from the white field.
In addition to the crowds of people outside the White Square, the western suburbs of Pendragon were also surrounded by citizens of Pendragon.
There is less than half an hour left before the military parade begins. All troops have been fully organized as early as 10 minutes ago and can enter the Imperial Capital and the White Square at any time to be reviewed by His Majesty and others.
Some citizens who couldn't squeeze into the outside of the White Square and couldn't see the scene inside the White Square turned to the suburbs to take a look at the generals who had finished organizing their troops.
Like the White Square, there is also a thick human chain here. This thick human chain separates the various troops from the citizens who come to join in the fun, and protects the troops who are about to enter the White Square to be reviewed.
…
…
With 20 minutes left before the military parade, the three of them, Ge Zewen, finally arrived on the stage of the White Square in a carriage.
Looking at the three Gozevins who had finally arrived at the White Square and were about to board the balcony, Albert joked in a joking tone to Su Cheng and Isel, who were standing next to him:
"It would be great if we could be like His Majesty, only wearing swords and not wearing armor. Wearing armor in such weather is really too painful."
Unlike everyone else who had not changed into their formal attires, Su Cheng, Isel, and Albert were no longer wearing their attire from this morning.
But they all put on their armor and hung up their knight swords.
The heads of the three major knighthoods of the Britannia Empire are all fully armed, standing on the balcony, side by side - this amazing picture, throughout the nearly 300 years of the Britannia Empire's history, Also extremely rare.
After Gozewen and the other three stepped onto the platform, and when the hour hand pointed to "2", Iser followed the predetermined plan and arrangement, turned around, knelt down on one knee, and saluted Gozewen:
"Your Majesty, all preparations for the military parade have been completed! Your Majesty, please give instructions on the next step!"
Iser is the undoubted first knight of the empire. This honor of reporting to Gozevin and requesting instructions for the next step in the military parade was awarded to Iser.
Ge Zewen looked serious and waved his big hand:
"start!"
"yes!"
Iser stood up, faced out of the building, and with a loud sound, he pulled out the red knight's sword from his waist, pointing the tip of the sword straight at the sky:
"Your Majesty's order! The military parade - begin!"
The war drums surrounding both sides of the tower rumbled, and the desolate and distant horn sounds followed.
The atmosphere was immediately solemn.
The people who were whispering to each other on the balcony fell silent.
The citizens who gathered outside the White Square to join in the fun fell silent.
Everyone followed the gaze of Ge Zewen and others to the west side of the white field.
The first to arrive at the White Square for review were the troops of the Knights of Rachel.
The generals of the Knights of Rachel, wearing brand new black battle armor, holding the military flag and the regimental flag of the Knights of Rachel, gradually appeared on the westernmost side of the white field.
Whether it is the troops of the Rachel Knights, the troops of the Gabriel Knights, or other troops, they have all received emergency training before.
Although the marching steps were not neat, the sound of the steps was very loud, which made them look impressive.
Three infantry brigade, one cavalry brigade, and one archer brigade of the Rachel Knights drove into the white field one after another.
As they passed the balcony, Gozevin, Ilsa, Gale and Albert raised their hands to signal them.
Under the leadership of the leader, the reviewing troops of the Rachel Knights turned their heads and raised their weapons as they passed by the balcony. When Gozevin and others on the balcony raised their hands to signal them.
"Long live your Majesty! Long live Britannia!!"
The generals cheered in unison. Although the shouts were a little uneven, because each general used all his strength, he looked so majestic.
Delegations from small countries such as the Kingdom of Lund and the Kingdom of Shupel looked at the reviewing troops of the Rachel Knights with astonishment.
Coming from a small country, they had never seen such an impressive force.
However, compared to these small countries, the reactions of delegations from large countries such as the Holy Hiran Empire, the Luolin Empire, and the Prairie People were much duller.
In their opinion, the reviewing troops of the Rachel Knights were just that, not enough to scare them.
After the reviewing troops of the Knights of Rachel completed their review and left the White Square from the east of the White Square, it was the turn of the Knights of Gabriel,
The five review troops of the Gabriel Knights are at a similar level to the review troops of the Rachel Knights.
After the baptism of the Knights of Rachel just now, and after seeing the parade troops of the Knights of Gabriel, the reactions of the delegations from those small countries were much duller.
Not to mention the delegations from the big countries, especially the delegation from the Holy Hiran Empire, looking at the reviewing troops of the Knights of Gabriel.
As a delegation from a "superpower", they naturally have a sense of arrogance and a somewhat pathological self-confidence in their hearts.
In their eyes, the army of the Britannia Empire was simply vulnerable to the army of their Holy Hiram Empire.
If it weren't for the exaggerated super fortifications like Avalon Fortress, their cavalry would have already crushed the Britannia Empire and helped the Frankish Empire end the "Hundred Years' War".
Whether it is the review troops of the Knights of Rachel or the review troops of the Knights of Gabriel, there is nothing remarkable in front of the delegation of the Holy Shiran Empire, and they can scare the ignorant civilians. Just these vulnerable small countries.
They are confident that if their country's troops are sent on board, with only a short period of special training, they can do better than the review troops of the Knights of Rachel and the Knights of Gabriel.
…
…
The five reviewed troops of the Gabriel Knights left the White Square one after another.
After the review troops of the Knights of Gabriel all left the white field, it was finally the turn of the last knight of the three major knights, a knight who recently had an incredibly young leader - —The Knights of Michael enter the scene.
