Chapter 614: The End of American History
April 1, 1952, April Fool's Day, Washington, D.C., square in front of the presidential palace.
Nearly 200,000 American people snuggled up to each other in the cold wind of the early morning, and after waiting all night, they opened their sleepy eyes and saw huge warships falling from the sky in the hazy morning light.
"Hooray! Long live the Empire! ”
"Hooray! Long live the Empire! ”
Bridget was pleasantly surprised by the earth-shattering cheers, and reflexively jumped up, and her first action was to look at the sky.
Although it was only 6 o'clock at this time, the sky was already dawning, and there were four spaceships that were slowly descending, three were super giant ships, and the other was also a 100-meter spaceship.
"My God, a heavy starcruiser, two stardestroyers, and a high-class business ship, thankfully, Chinese not here to attack Washington......"
Bridget is a mechanical genius, although he is the kind of grassroots genius, but his love and delving into machinery is very persistent.
Once, American or German machinery and equipment were his interests, but now he is completely immersed in Chinese things.
Those magical super warships, intelligent robots, intelligent brains, and even the super-era mechanical equipment manufacturing center, flying cars, etc., all aroused his great interest.
For example, the battleship, his home is even full of all the dual-use spacecraft known to the Chinese.
Unlike the Americans next to him, who only knew how to shout, he could tell the difference between a battleship and a cruiser and a destroyer at a glance, and he could name those hideous weapons.
He could still recognize the high-level official ship, even in China, where spaceships are quite common, it is not something that ordinary people can ride, it must be used in an emergency official situation, and it must be a high-ranking public servant.
It is not that the Chinese are paying attention to pomp, but that the dignity of the empire needs to pay attention to pomp.
"Although the Chinese battleships did not show a combat posture, they are still so beautiful, the X1 super-focused laser cannon, the main gun of the Xiao He-class interstar cruiser, is extremely powerful, and one cannon is comparable to a medium-yield nuclear bomb."
The M1 high-energy particle cannon, although not as powerful as the super-concentrated laser main gun, has a very high rate of fire, and it is definitely a big killer against small ships.
The S1 small high-energy laser cannon has an extremely high rate of fire and is very flexible, making it a killer against space fighters.
……”
In a matter of moments, Bridget was fascinated by the marvelous and powerful weapons that he had seen for the first time, and had previously only been admired on the photographs on the bedroom wall.
As for official ships, he believes that the Chinese have sent at least one senior official above the director level.
Now the Chinese are as powerful as rainbows and have long been the hegemon of the earth, and the United States? It's just a regional power, and if he decides, he may only send a division chief, a deputy minister or a department director who is already a very high official, and then he can't send a foreign minister or a propaganda minister, which is beyond the norm and does not fit the identity of the Chinese Empire.
"Damn politicians, hopefully this time it will go well."
Bridget no longer thought nonsense, but rolled up her sleeves, rounded her arms, waved the golden dragon flag in her hand, and shouted loudly like everyone around her, "Long live the Empire!" Liberate America, liberate America ......"
And on the periphery of the square, with the arrival of the Chinese foreign affairs fleet, more and more Americans are surging, they want to use their practical actions to let the Chinese hear the free voice of the American people, they have had enough of this damn government, they don't need narrow America, they need a strong empire, they want to be citizens of the empire.
They don't want to be like now, except for the United States, if they want to travel anywhere on the planet, they have to wait in line for a complicated imperial visa, instead of being like an imperial citizen, you can go anywhere except for the homeland, you can swipe your citizenship card anytime, anywhere, and then enjoy the treatment of a global citizen.
If you encounter an attack or other danger, all you need to do is call a global distress call from your mobile phone, and a special operations force will locate you within 10 minutes, develop an action plan and send reinforcements in 30 minutes, and appear in front of you within 1 hour, whether you are dead or alive.
Of course, if you are a false police officer, you are likely to be imprisoned for up to 20 years, not on Earth, but on the Moon or Mars.
Even if you just lose your money, you can call or ask for help directly from the Social Affairs Bureau, which specializes in solving the so-called messy problems of people's livelihood, with a high salary, but more efficient, they can even send you to your doorstep, and you don't even need to pay, unless you borrow money from the state in the process.
In the eyes of Americans, the freedom of the United States is simply a false freedom, a freedom that has been kidnapped by the capitalists, and a false freedom that serves a minority.
And the freedom of the Chinese is true freedom, the supremacy of the empire, no matter who you are, you must abide by the rules within the framework of the empire and enjoy the highest freedom.
As for the relatives of the emperor Zhang Shusheng, they are under the supervision of the Supreme Power Council of the Empire, the highest power organization with Zhang Shusheng as the chairman, in 1951, a relative and friend was sentenced to Mars to be imprisoned for 1 year, just released, just because this cousin of the Lu family threatened a cleaner in public with a name almost like an imperial relative, and was anonymously reported.
The whistleblower was heavily rewarded with 1 million new yuan and became a celebrity in one fell swoop.
Hua Shaokang looked at US President Eisenhower, whose eyes were bloodshot in front of him, and he was tired but a little restrained, and couldn't help but sigh at the old saying, a weak country has no diplomacy, even if he saw a director of the Celestial Empire, he was extremely worried.
The big scene in front of him made him very satisfied, personal honor and disgrace are secondary, and the key is that the dignity of the empire has been best maintained.
"Welcome, welcome to Director Hua!"
Eisenhower said respectfully, and behind him was a group of political axe officers, and in the distance was the guard of honor that was lining up, and in the distance were the soldiers of the guards.
However, what is embarrassing is that not only did no one break through the cordon, but even the soldiers raised their guns and cheered with the people.
Although the dissolution of the political axe and the joining of the empire will not be accomplished in a day, they see the high-profile appearance of Chinese officials as an expression of attitude.
Holding Eisenhower's hand, Hua Shaokang said with a smile: "Sorry, sorry, we're late!" ”
"It's not too late, it's not too late, please."
So, the two walked through the protocol passage covered with a red carpet, and came to the press conference desk in front of the presidential palace amid the sound of the national anthem.
Eisenhower, as the master, spoke first.
At this time, the march is no longer a simple march of hundreds of thousands of people, the arrival of the Chinese, and the current speeches, are broadcast live across the country through radio and television, and the Chinese side will also broadcast live on some television stations.
"My free and industrious compatriots,
From the discovery of the beautiful and magical continent of America by our great ancestors more than 400 years ago, to the founding of the United States of America, we have been striving for a prosperous, free and equal life...... Today, when history has developed to an inevitable stage with integration as the main theme, we are fortunate to see that the earth is no longer barren and backward, but has a strong ability to survive and ...... Now, let us welcome the emissary from the Chinese Empire, Mr. Hua Shaokang, Director of the Department of Earth Affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Chinese Empire, please! ”
It is rare for Eisenhower to say so many things at one time, which is nothing more than saying that the rolling traffic of history cannot be stopped, that the United States has always been a peace-loving and freedom-loving country, and now, in line with the trend of history, it will turn from a nation of reading power into a member of the great empire of the Great Federation of Earth, and so on.
Hua Shaokang, as the director of the Department of Earth Affairs, can be described as a high authority, and in the future, the affairs of the entire earth will be handled by him.
"Dear friends in the United States,
I'm glad to see you here today, and I just said to Mr. Eisenhower that we're late. Really, we're late.
Today, on behalf of the Supreme Power Council of the Empire, on behalf of Chairman Zhang Shusheng, and on behalf of our Minister Mr. Li Zongren, I would like to say to you that you have worked hard.
There is a sentence of Mr. Eisenhower that I agree with very much, that the earth is the home of our entire people, and that it should not be divided and full of struggles, but should be a whole.
Now, our empire originated in the East, and we are willing to shoulder this great historical mission and act as the leader of the entire earth's civilization.
The chairman said that the unification of the earth is not for money, because money can no longer reach such heights. Again, it is not for the sake of power, but for the sake of power, we can choose war or other means to force unity.
What we hope is to build a new generation of planets that are beautiful and free, rich and peaceful, with rapid development but capable of both offense and defense.
As we all know, the universe is very exciting, although there are not many civilizations in our Lost Star Field, but outside the Lost Star Field, the entire southwest star field of the Milky Way galaxy has millions of civilizations.
We need to form a group, catch up from the first-level civilization, at least have the ability to protect ourselves, the universe is not a children's paradise, there is no protection policy for the weak, some can only rely on ourselves, we form a fist as one...... In view of this, the Empire intends to establish the Great China Empire to unify the earth, the solar system, and even the inner layer of the Lost Star Field, to concentrate all our forces, to develop our civilization with unprecedented advantages, and to protect our homeland......"
Hua Shaokang's speech, hailed as the Washington Declaration, was not his personal speech, but an important speech made on behalf of Zhang Shusheng.
After the Washington Declaration, the United States announced its intention to dissolve later that day, and the official intervention of the empire began to reorganize the political axe to ensure order, and it was also from this day that the Chinese Empire officially announced that it would establish the Great China Empire, and the foundation of the empire was the earth, the solar system, and even the starry sky world in the inner layer of the lost star field.
This will be a super empire with an extremely vast territory and gradually increasing strength.
