We have fought to the Arctic Circle, and you want me to inherit the throne?

"Your Highness...Your Highness."

An old Mohe chief stood up tremblingly, his voice trembling slightly.

He bent deeply towards Li Che, almost bowing at a ninety-degree angle.

"The various Mohe tribes have always been loyal to Your Highness and the Feng Kingdom. Over the past four years, they have diligently adhered to their duties and have never committed any acts that are beyond their control."

The Mohe people were really scared.

Over the past four years, Li Che has adopted a strategy of both appeasement and assimilation towards the Mohe tribes.

A large number of Mohe youths were recruited into the army and integrated into the Fengtian Army system at all levels.

More people entered workshops and farms and participated in the production and construction of Fengguo.

Even at Fengguo University, there were hundreds of Mohe students studying.

Li Che did not force those tribesmen who still missed their traditional nomadic life. Instead, he set aside special pastures and horse farms in the north to support them in developing animal husbandry.

It can be said that the Mohe people have become the most thoroughly integrated foreign ethnic group with the Feng State, and most Mohe people regard themselves as citizens of the Feng State.

With the Mohe chief taking the lead, the other kings and envoys who were on pins and needles rushed to stand up as if they had grabbed a life-saving straw.

Everyone bowed towards the throne, speaking in unison to express their submission and obedience.

However, in the face of all the flattering voices, Li Che didn't even raise his eyelids, as if he didn't exist.

At this time, Huo Duanxiao stood up and said to the group of anxious envoys:

"Messengers, please be patient. The military parade has just begun, and the excitement is yet to come."

"Please sit down and watch the ceremony."

Everyone seemed to be held down by an invisible hand and fell silent.

They knew very well Huo Duanxiao's status in Feng State, so they could only sit back in their seats trembling, their hearts beating faster.

The military parade continues.

The armored cavalry is just an appetizer.

Even in the Fengtian Army's current battle sequence, heavy cavalry can no longer be considered the top combat force.

Next up is the Musketeers!

Musketeers were musketeers on horses.

He abandoned the heavy full body armor and lance, wearing only light and flexible cotton armor, and his only melee weapon was a saber slung around his waist.

But in each of their hands, they held a musket with a slightly strange shape.

The inspiration for the establishment of this unit came from the European dragoon concept, aiming to combine the mobility of cavalry with the long-range lethality of muskets.

Compared with the musket infantry who need to fight in formation, they are as mobile as the wind.

Compared with light cavalry who only have bows and sabers, their firepower is several levels stronger.

In order to adapt to shooting from horseback, the Gunpowder Bureau specially improved the flintlock rifle, making it shorter and more compact, so as to facilitate shooting from horseback.

This team was not as well-organized as the heavy cavalry, and was even a little loose while marching.

This left the people of Fengtian who were watching the fun somewhat confused. They only felt it was novel but did not understand how serious it was.

But Khabarov on the city wall suddenly looked even uglier than before.

He had personally experienced on the battlefield the continuous volleys of fire from the Fengtian Army's line musketeers like a rainstorm, and had also experienced the terrifying impact of the Fengtian Army's cavalry.

He simply couldn't imagine the devastating power that would erupt on the battlefield when these two combined!

This kind of troops are simply born for long-range raids, harassment, sabotage, pursuit and annihilation of the enemy!

After the musketeer cavalry, the various branches of the Fengtian Army showed their prowess one by one.

A heavy infantry phalanx equipped with sharp weapons, like a mobile fortress.

A line of musketeers wearing padded armor, carrying flintlock rifles on their shoulders and marching in unison.

A crossbowman wearing leather armor and carrying a strong bow and crossbow.

As well as artillery pieces, mortars, and cannons of various calibers, pushed and pulled by pack horses, they moved heavily along the main road.

The people of Feng State were too well protected. Most of them had never experienced war and could not even recognize the names of all the equipment.

However, this did not prevent the people from cheering for their country's army.

No matter what these soldiers are carrying, just cheer and scream!

The waves of noise grew louder and louder, and the louder the people's revelry became, the paler the faces of the envoys and kings on the viewing platform became, and their bodies trembled uncontrollably.

Different perspectives are destined to lead to different moods at the moment.

What the people saw were their own soldiers, and what they felt was a full sense of security.

Others saw a group of foreign troops showing off their military power and felt a real threat.

Which of the foreigners here has not been beaten by the Fengtian Army?

The military parade reached its climax when a dozen black spots appeared on the horizon!

A dozen hot air balloons painted black slowly flew through the sky!

The Fengtian Army soldiers in the balloon basket waved downwards while pouring baskets full of petals and colored ribbons down from the sky.

In an instant, flowers were flying like rain and colorful ribbons were flying all over the sky.

The crowd bathed in the rain of petals went completely crazy. They stood on tiptoe and stretched out their arms to welcome the gift from heaven.

They didn't understand the principle of how a hot air balloon could take off, but they saw an indisputable fact: His Majesty the Prince Feng had the ability to send people into the sky!

If this isn't a god descending to earth, then what is it?

Besides him, who else is more qualified to rule this world?!

The messengers in the stands tilted their heads back, their mouths wide open, their horror far greater than that of the common people.

Except for Khabarov, it was the first time for everyone else to see such a strange thing.

Their cognition was definitely higher than that of ordinary people, and they immediately realized how much impact the emergence of this weapon would have on the direction of the war.

Being in a commanding position, bows, crossbows and muskets were out of reach, making them almost invincible.

If we use firearms from the air or drop bombs...wouldn't we be invincible?

Khabarov looked at the hot air balloon spraying flower petals above his head, and his heart felt numb.

These strange creatures are now scattering flower petals, but when I saw them before, they were throwing bombs!

If it weren't for these hot air balloons descending from the sky, his army wouldn't have been defeated so quickly.

Li Che glanced at Khabarov inconspicuously and felt very satisfied.

The hot air balloon troops' first public display was intended to completely intimidate these alien races.

He always kept in mind the principle that "those who are not of my race must have different hearts."

This battle concerns the fate of the country, so Li Che will definitely withdraw all the troops he can mobilize, and only a very small number of garrisons can be left in the rear.

Showing off your muscles to shock them is better than getting backstabbed after entering the customs.

Li Che slowly stood up and cast his gaze towards the envoys who were silent as a cicada. "Everyone, do you think our Fengtian Army looks quite impressive?"

Everyone shuddered, stood up in panic, and bowed.

The King of Baekje almost buried his head in his knees: "The might of the Dafeng army is so great, like the wrath of the gods!"

"Baekje's eternal submission and the protection of Dafeng are truly a blessing for a small nation, earned through centuries of hard work!"

The other envoys rushed to echo, their voices distorted by fear: "The might of the Celestial Empire's military power terrifies the world! We are wholeheartedly convinced!"

Li Che smiled slightly, then turned his gaze to Khabarov:

"So, is the Russian Empire convinced?"
