Chapter 207: Expedition Ceremony (4)
After hearing this loud shout, Su Cheng immediately turned back and looked straight ahead.
And I also corrected some postures that were not standing very straight, keeping my heels together and standing straight.
There are not many requirements for the military posture of the Britannian Empire army. You just need to keep your heels together, open your shoulders, don't hunch your back, and stand straight.
While standing upright, Su Cheng also put away the light casual look on his face, and his expression became serious.
The other people in the white field were also like Su Cheng. After hearing this loud shout, the people who were standing a little crooked immediately stood up straight, and the people who were standing straight straightened up. He straightened his waist and tried his best to stand up straighter.
Everyone on the white court, including Su Cheng... no, it should be everyone on and outside the white court, all moved their eyes to the tall building platform at the northernmost end of the white court.
After everyone turned their attention to the platform of this tall building, they saw an old man walking slowly towards the platform.
This old man is none other than Gozevin Augustus, the current emperor of the Britannia Empire.
I saw that Ge Zewen was not wearing the gorgeous common clothes he usually wore, but was wearing a set of blue and gold mighty battle armor.
There is also a blue cloak on his shoulders.
This set of blue and gold mighty battle armor gave Ge Zewen a heroic aura.
On Ge Zewen's left waist, there is a sword hanging from the hilt to the guard to the scabbard. They are all blue and gold with complicated patterns.
This sword is the imperial sword that only the emperor of the Britannian Empire is qualified to hold and wear, symbolizing the military power of the country.
Since the first emperor of the Britannia Empire forged this imperial sword, it has been passed down from generation to generation until now.
Therefore, this sword has a history of nearly 300 years.
However, because this sword is made of rare special steel and made by the best craftsmen, and there are always dedicated personnel to maintain and maintain it, so even after more than 300 years, this sword still looks brand new. It's just like a newly built one.
Not only in appearance, this imperial sword is still the same as the one that was just forged 300 years ago, but even the sharpness is the same as the one that was just forged 300 years ago.
When the Imperial Sword was first forged more than 300 years ago, it was known as the sharpest sword in the entire empire.
The first emperor of the Britannia Empire showed the sharpness of the imperial sword to his ministers many times - blowing a few hairs against the sharp edge of the imperial sword. The moment the hair touched the edge of the imperial sword, Those light hairs will be cut in half immediately.
The sharpness of the imperial sword can be seen clearly.
Now more than 300 years have passed, and the Imperial Sword has been passed to Ge Zewen's hands. Even after more than 300 years, it is still said that the sharpness of the Imperial Sword is still the same as 300 years ago.
According to the customs of expedition etiquette, the emperor must wear battle armor and an imperial sword when performing expedition etiquette.
Therefore, although Su Cheng didn't know whether Ge Zewen liked wearing armor or not, no matter whether Ge Zewen liked wearing armor or not, he had to wear armor now.
However, looking at Ge Zewen's current appearance, he probably isn't someone who likes to wear armor.
Because it can be seen from Ge Zewen's walking movements that he is not used to the armor on his body and the imperial sword hanging on his left waist.
However, even though he was not used to it and it was awkward to walk, Ge Zewen still walked firmly towards the balcony step by step.
Of course, Ge Zewen did not walk towards the balcony alone.
There were dozens of heavily armed guards with helmets and armor surrounding Gozevin.
Su Cheng counted a total of 32 guards guarding Ge Zewen.
These 32 guards are the Royal Guards specifically responsible for protecting the royal family of the Britannia Empire.
Although the number of the Royal Guards is very small, so far, the total strength of the Royal Guards is only 5,000.
However, although the number is small, in terms of eliteness, there may not be any force in the entire empire that can defeat the Royal Guards.
Any ordinary soldier in the Royal Guards is a warrior who can equal ten warriors.
This was also the first time Su Cheng saw the prestigious Royal Guards.
After seeing the 32 Royal Guards guarding Go Zewen, Su Cheng couldn't help but admire in his heart.
Just from the movements, expressions, aura, etc. of these 32 Royal Guards, you can strongly feel the eliteness of the Royal Guards.
This terrace at the north end of the white field has nine steps.
These 32 Royal Guards escorted Ge Zewen all the way to the bottom of the balcony, and then escorted Ge Zewen up the balcony.
The speed of Ge Zewen and the 32 Royal Guards was not slow, so soon, Go Zewen and the 32 Royal Guards escorting him boarded the platform.
After boarding the platform, the 32 Royal Guards immediately dispersed and stood neatly in every corner of the platform, continuing their duties of warning and defense.
Ge Zewen, holding the imperial sword on his left waist, walked slowly to the edge of the balcony, looking down at Su Cheng, Alyssa and others below, as well as the thousands of recruits who were about to leave for the southern front.
After Ge Zewen stepped onto the platform, the thousands of recruits behind Su Cheng, including the onlookers outside the white field, immediately raised their heads curiously, hoping to see what they usually had no chance of seeing. The emperor.
However, the efforts of the onlookers outside the white field were destined to be in vain.
After all, the balcony at the northern end of the White Square was relatively far away from the White Square. Therefore, the onlookers surrounding the White Square could only vaguely see the small figure of His Majesty the Emperor on the balcony.
However, the thousands of recruits standing in the center of the white field were different.
These thousands of new soldiers were much closer to the tower, so they could all see the emperor clearly.
His Majesty the Emperor should be regarded as the most difficult person to meet in this world.
Many people live their entire lives without ever seeing the emperor of their country.
Therefore, anyone who can see the emperor of his own country with his own eyes can brag to others for a lifetime.
Therefore, almost all the recruits in the center of the white field craned their necks with curiosity and excitement on their faces, and some even looked enthusiastically at His Majesty the Emperor, who was rarely seen on the balcony.
Some recruits even said to the people next to them in excited tones:
"I have met His Majesty the Emperor. When I return to my hometown, I must show off to the villagers."
When the people under the balcony looked up at Ge Zewen, Ge Zewen also looked down at the people below.
Standing on the balcony, Ge Zewen moved his gaze to take in all the thousands of recruits in the center of the white field, then he cleared his throat and said loudly:
"My fellow soldiers! I am the current emperor of the Britannia Empire—Gosavan Augustus!"
Ge Zewen's voice clearly reached the ears of every recruit in the center of the white field.
It also reached the ears of the onlookers outside the white field.
"Your commander must also tell you where you are going and what you are going to do this time!"
"That's right! You are going to the forefront of the empire's south this time to join the empire's upcoming new round of large-scale offensive to the south - the "Xia Feng" offensive! Fight to the death with the Luolin people!"
"This will be a great war, and we will cripple the Rollin Empire with this battle! Let the Rollin people no longer be able to compete with my people in Britannia within 10 years!"
"A great war naturally requires strong warriors!"
…
The lines of Go Zewen's speech are not very gorgeous, but when these words that are not very gorgeous come out of Go Zewen's mouth, they have a strange appeal.
The emotions and morale of the thousands of recruits in the center of the white field have been lifted by Ge Zewen.
Su Cheng, standing in front of the recruits, could already feel the breathing of the thousands of recruits behind him, which had become heavier due to excitement.
Not to mention these new recruits, even Su Cheng himself became a little excited after listening to Ge Zewen's speech.
Gozevin's speech was not very long and would be finished soon.
However, he still has the last line yet to be spoken.
——That is a line that must be shouted out in unison with Su Cheng and Allen.
Ge Zewen pulled out the imperial sword from his left waist with a "clop" sound, and then said loudly:
"Coach of the East Route Army—Su Cheng! Coach of the West Route Army—Alan Jones! Please come forward!"
