~4 min read 696 words

"All officials, no need for formalities!"

Gao Tianlong and the others stood up one after another, and then Wu Zhao asked, "Is everything prepared?"

Lu Zhen looked solemn and said loudly, "Will the Emperor please ascend the command platform to appreciate the heroic spirit of our Da Qian soldiers!"

Hearing this, Wu Zhao nodded first, then glanced at Gao Yang, and then said, "Lord Gao, you follow by my side."

For a moment, Lu Wen, Cui Xinghe, and others all looked at Gao Yang with jealousy.

This favor was enviable!

"Yes!"

Gao Yang responded and then came to Wu Zhao's side.

Wu Zhao also walked from the camp gate toward the command platform.

She looked ahead and asked softly, "You asked me to wait three days before reviewing the troops on the battlefield; is the thing you wanted to create finished?"

Gao Yang was full of confidence and replied to Wu Zhao, "In a moment, the Emperor will see; this is a gift I specially prepared for the Emperor for the first day of winter."

Wu Zhao raised an eyebrow.

"The first gift of winter? This phrasing is quite interesting."

"Then I shall look forward to it!"

Behind them.

Wang Xiao came to Wang Zhong's side and said through gritted teeth, "Father, this Living Yama is simply too much! Not only did he forget me, but he also said you owe a lot of dung."

Wang Zhong shook his head, his expression normal, "Who in the world doesn't know the Living Yama's tongue? Who would you provoke if not him!"

"But today, it is time for us father and son to wash away our shame and show them what we've got."

Hearing this, Wang Xiao said with a spirited expression.

"Father, is there any problem with drawing a two-stone bow and piercing a willow leaf at a hundred paces?"

Wang Zhong looked confident and said directly, "Your father has absolute confidence!"

"Today, I will step on Gao Tianlong's head to make a name for myself!"

On the drill ground, the sunlight poured down, tens of thousands of soldiers were lined up neatly, their bodies standing straight, a murderous aura permeating the air.

Wu Zhao wore a phoenix crown and a gorgeous dragon robe, her figure graceful, yet exuding an inviolable majesty as she stepped onto the command platform.

Below the platform, looking down, tens of thousands of Da Qian soldiers stood in formation, their armor bright, their swords and spears like a forest, each standing tall, looking at the command platform with murderous faces.

Wu Zhao stood still, her majestic phoenix eyes slowly sweeping over every Da Qian soldier, with the hundred officials standing behind her.

Wu Zhao raised her hand slightly, and then her cold voice rang out: "Review the troops!"

Following the order, Lu Zhen looked stern, waved his hand heavily, and said loudly, "Review the troops!"

One messenger after another waved the red flags in their hands, and as the red flags danced, the military orders were issued.

The Da Qian soldiers marched in unison, moving toward their predetermined positions; as the battle formations shifted, they transformed into two battle formations and began the drill!

The hundred officials were excited and their blood was boiling, but Gao Yang was yawning repeatedly.

The so-called "reviewing troops on the battlefield" was actually similar to the military exercises of later generations.

This was a means to boost morale and also represented the Emperor's determination.

Although this formation was vast, in terms of neatness or changing formations, it was far inferior to the military exercises Gao Yang had seen in later generations.

But Gao Yang still cooperated by clapping his hands and saying, "Good!"

"Very good!"

"Excellent!"

"This formation is amazing!"

Wu Zhao: "..."

She glanced at Gao Yang, thinking if this guy could be any more perfunctory.

If she were to replace these tens of thousands of people with female soldiers and have them wear something more revealing, Gao Yang's attitude would probably be completely different.

Wu Zhao was just about to speak when she suddenly heard the war drums beating on the field, the dense sound of war drums seeming to ring in her heart...
