The Ming Dynasty has just been exiled and the Luzon system has awakened.

This battle that broke out inexplicably did not actually have much impact on Zhu Heyi's "Ming Empire".

After all, after the whole battle, the Ming army only consumed part of the ammunition and killed 2 people and suffered minor injuries to 6 people, while the natives not only lost more than 400 lives, but also gave him the free labor of hundreds of people.

However, Zhu Heyi still did not intend to expose the matter easily.

Ming Dynasty is not very clear. If someone beats him, he has to fight back. He wants everyone to know the consequences of offending Ming Dynasty.

Even if it is the other party who suffers!

As for the previous plan of letting the Spaniards and natives fight to consume the excess natives, it seems that now they have to do it themselves.

Under Zhu Heyi's order, the Ming Royal Army, the Ming Royal Armed Police, the Ming Foreign Legion, five infantry regiments, an artillery regiment, and a foreign legion totaling more than 6000 people quickly began to prepare for the expedition.

……

"Your Majesty, you..."

"Okay, my ears are almost calloused by you."

Although Zhu Heyi had already made a strong decision to conquer personally in the court in the morning, Wang Chen still wanted to dissuade Zhu Heyi from taking back his life.

"How can I easily change my golden words? Moreover, in front of the powerful Ming army, do you think those natives can hurt me?"

"Can……"

"This matter has been decided and there is no possibility of changing it. Wang Chen, I don't want to hear another word of no!" Zhu Heyi stared at Wang Chen with a serious tone.

This time, Wang Chen did not dare to speak again. He knew that the matter was settled. If he objected again, he would be suspected of contempt for the imperial power. He was an internal official, not a public official, not to mention that there was no public official now.

At noon that day, in a temporarily flattened open space outside Manila, Zhu Heyi stood on a high platform in front of him and looked at the soldiers standing upright in several square formations below.

This is my army!

In his previous life, he was only a naval ensign, and as a technical officer he had no experience in leading troops. But now he has become the top leader of the thousands-man army in front of him.

And this army will continue to grow and eventually stand on top of the world!

"play music!"

Zhu Heyi gave an order, and the powerful and shocking music of "March of Steel Torrent" rang out at the review site. At the same time, the flag protection unit composed of 96 flag guards was guarding several flags and walking towards the central podium with their heads held high. Come.

Naturally, there is no military band in Zhuheyuan. This soul-stirring music was produced by the speakers he bought from the Miracle Market last week.

The moment the music started playing, many people watching the excitement were shocked.

They looked around, but there was obviously no one playing music around them, but where did this shocking sound come from?

Gradually, the people turned their attention to the heroic figure on the platform in the distance.

Many people even knelt down directly towards the high platform and shouted long live.

The common people reacted like this, but the soldiers under the platform always maintained a straight posture, although their hearts had already been aroused by the shocking music.

"Confer the flag!"

Representatives of the Army headed by Li Zhenhua, representatives of the Armed Police headed by Su Qiyi, and representatives of the Foreign Legion headed by Nickel stood on the high platform.

Zhu Heyi stepped forward and took a flag from the flag guard.

This flag is different from the previous tentative national flag of Zhu Heyu. It has a red background, with the word "Ming" embroidered in bright yellow on the left side of the flag, and a yellow dragon holding a long knife in its claws on the right side.

"This is the flag of the Royal Army of the Ming Dynasty! Where the flag goes, where the interests of the Ming Dynasty lie, Li Zhenhua takes the flag!"

“Wherever the flag goes, Ming Dynasty’s interests lie!”

Li Zhenhua solemnly took over the military flag.

Then Zhu Heyi took over the second flag from the flag guard. This flag still had yellow characters on a red background, but the yellow dragon on the right turned into a white dragon, and the long knife in his claws also turned into a sword.

"This is the flag of the Royal Armed Police of the Ming Dynasty! Where the flag goes, where the interests of the people lie, Su Qiyi takes over!"

“Wherever the flag goes, where the people’s interests lie”

Su Qiyi took over the military flag.

The last thing is to give the flag to the foreign legion. At first, Zhu Heyi did not intend to give the flag to the foreign legion. After all, this temporarily formed foreign legion was always used by him as cannon fodder.

But when I thought that this review and flag presentation event was public, the Army and the Armed Police gave it to me, but the Foreign Legion did not give it, it would inevitably make people feel that one was favoring one and the foreign legion's recruitment might also be affected in the future, so I simply gave it to them all.

The flag still has yellow characters on a red background, but the pattern on the right side has changed greatly. It is no longer a dragon-shaped totem for the Chinese nation. This time it is replaced by a tiger pattern with a pair of wings.

The tiger is a symbol of courage and strength in the West. It is invincible and invincible, so it is appropriate to place it here.

"Nichol, this is the flag of the Ming Dynasty Foreign Legion. In addition, I will now promote you to the rank of Major General of the Ming Dynasty Foreign Legion and restore your title of viscount. I hope you will not disappoint me."

Hearing this, Nickel burst into tears.

After so many years, he originally thought that he would never have the chance to be promoted to a real general in his life, but now he has achieved his lifelong goal with this former enemy.

He stretched out his trembling hands to take the military flag and spoke in broken Chinese.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! I, Nikhil, will not let you down."

Zhu Heyi spoke in Spanish when he spoke to Nickel, but Nickel responded in Chinese. This scene seemed very inconsistent.

After the flag presentation, Zhu Heyi gave another brief speech. Finally, amid the exciting military music, Zhu Heyi shouted the long-lost slogan.

"Long live the Ming army!"

"Long live the Ming army!"

……

After the flag-raising ceremony ended with the shouts of long live the Ming army, Zhu Heyi led the army to the north in a mighty manner.

Speaking of which, the navy did not participate in this flag-raising event. It is not that Zhu Heyi forgot, but the navy will not participate in this military operation.

Now that all the main troops are heading north, only the recruits who have just started training are left in Manila. He must leave some troops to look after his family.

Moreover, the navy does not need to be dispatched to deal with the indigenous people. The flag conferment can only be done by the navy alone after the war is over.

Although Zhu Heyi set off with his army, the discussion in Manila about the Ming Army's flag-raising event did not stop.

"God, this army is so terrifying. Although they still look weak now, in time she will make the whole world tremble."

"They are not weak at all now. Have you forgotten the battle more than two months ago? The Spanish army was like children in front of the Ming army, and there were only a few of them at that time."

"Am I the only one who cares about that music? God, I can't find the right words to describe it. It's so shocking!"

"Didn't you realize that the music was not played by a band, but was produced out of thin air? And the sound was so loud that the entire city of Manila could hear it. I'm afraid only gods can do this."

At this point, several white people suddenly stopped, and then they looked at each other in understanding.

They saw confusion, suspicion and shock in each other's eyes!
