Chapter 248: There Is No Dawn, Only Darkness

Huang Jian and his entourage, along with the two Praetorian Guard soldiers who led the way, soon came to the rostrum of the temporary ceremony venue in Fengtian Temple Square, and went through several Praetorian Guard security checks again.

Huang Jian was led to the rostrum by a court attendant, while his nine small guards were arranged to sit in the VIP seats next to the rostrum.

Huang Jian saw that his brothers had been well accommodated, nodded with satisfaction, and came to his seat under the leadership of the palace attendant.

After Huang Jian and the court attendants confirmed that this position was prepared for him, they motioned for the court attendants to step aside.

At this time, Huang Jian did not sit down immediately, but carefully observed the rostrum and the surrounding environment.

This temporary ceremonial venue in Fengtian Temple Square was open-air, separated into areas by various extravagant things of the court.

The entire makeshift ceremony venue is huge, with a capacity of at least 300,000 people.

The rostrum where Huang Jian is located is even more luxurious. He found that the entire rostrum was built with real gold bricks. Each of the gold bricks used to build the rostrum of the ceremony venue is a square gold brick with a width of 10 meters.

Huang Jian took a serious look and knew that these giant gold bricks all had the double-headed eagle logo of the Galactic Empire on them, and Huang Jian knew that this must be the gold bricks of His Majesty the Emperor's inner treasury.

Because in the entire Galactic Empire, only His Majesty the Emperor, not the royal family, can use this gold brick with the double-headed eagle logo as a rostrum-building material for important ceremonial events.

Seeing this, Huang Jian's heart was very satisfied. He didn't expect that this ceremony of reassembling the Red Flame Army's space fleet would be so valued by the Emperor and His Majesty the Emperor.

Thinking of this, Huang Jian's previous dissatisfaction with the Empire's treatment of his father Huang Hai and their attitude and ignoring the orphans of the Red Flame Army has alleviated a lot.

At this time, it was still early for the opening time of the entire ceremony, and many dignitaries and spectators of the empire did not arrive at the ceremony venue in Fengtian Temple Square. As for His Majesty the Emperor, he must have arrived last.

Huang Jian left his seat at this time and walked to the rostrum made of gold bricks, he looked back and saw that none of the soldiers of the Praetorian Guard of the Imperial City of Odin who were already on duty stopped him.

At this moment, he put his hands on the edge of the rostrum, on the pure gold guardrail inlaid with countless gemstones.

Huang Jian found that the height of the entire rostrum, which was made of giant gold bricks, was at least 60 meters high. He found that the height of the rostrum where he was now was reached by stacking six giant gold bricks on top of each other.

Such a height is enough for all the people on the entire rostrum to look at the luxurious scenery of the entire Fengtian Temple Square from afar.

Soon, Huang Jian discovered that there were tens of thousands of orphans of the Red Flame Army and retired veterans of the former Red Flame Army who came to the scene to participate in the reconstruction ceremony of the Red Flame Army.

They were divided into two phalanxes, on the left of the rostrum was the representative group of orphans of the Red Flame Army, and on the right was the representative group of retired veterans of the former Red Flame Army.

Although they were all in the open air, the Empire had prepared a table and chair for each of them, with water on them and some fine food and fresh fruit.

Huang Jian could see that this time the empire was very careful in preparing for the reconstruction ceremony of the Red Flame Army.

At this time, Huang Jian's heart was a little less dissatisfied with the empire and His Majesty the Emperor. He was really a little excited now, because he would soon be able to fulfill his greatest wish and rebuild the Red Flame Army!

Also, justify the name of the Red Flame Army! Then, let them, the orphans of the Red Flame Army, who usually live like lonely ghosts, have a better life.

These wishes have plagued Huang Jian for many years. At this time, seeing that the empire had prepared so ceremoniously in order to rebuild the Red Flame Army, Huang Jian's heart was already getting happier and happier!

At this time, Huang Jian was very excited, and he didn't notice that about 1,000 meters away from the phalanx of the two orphans and retired veterans of the Red Flame Army in front of the rostrum, a group of Odin Imperial City Forbidden Army troops were gathering with loaded guns.

Their number is far more than the number of orphans and representatives of retired veterans of the Red Flame Army. At this time, they were taking the rostrum as the starting point, slowly forming a huge encirclement of the orphans and retired veterans of the Red Flame Army.

In the sky above these large numbers of Odin Imperial City Praetorian Guard soldiers, there are also many elite battle mechs of the Praetorian Guards gathering at this moment.

The Praetorian Guards in the entire ceremony venue moved very quickly, neatly, without the slightest chaos, obviously, these Praetorian Guard soldiers and the battle mech troops in the sky were well-trained! Definitely not comparable to the average Imperial soldier.

After a long time, Huang Jian, who was on the rostrum, finally noticed the movement of the Praetorian Guard soldiers on the Fengtian Temple Square.

Huang Jian is not an ordinary person, although his own strength is weaker, he is only a level 7 cosmic warrior. But since he was a child, he has been training and learning to command battles with Li Hao.

He found that these Praetorian Guard soldiers and the battle mech troops in the sky above were obviously a multi-level encirclement and annihilation formation with the rostrum as the central base.

The tens of thousands of orphans and retired veterans of the Red Flame Army under the rostrum, due to the terrain and location, did not find this unusual scene.

Seeing these situations, Huang Jian's heart became faintly uneasy. He was about to find a court attendant to inquire what was going on, when he heard a voice ringing in his ears:

"Huang Jian! There you are! How do you feel about the venue of the Red Flame Army's reconstruction ceremony now? ”

Huang Jian turned his head to look and found Earl Chen Xuanfeng, who didn't know when he came to his side.

"I took a look at the preparations for the ceremony, and I can see that this time the empire is concerned about the rebuilding of the Red Flame Army! I'm very satisfied!

There's one thing I don't understand, though! I would like to ask Earl Chen! Huang Jian looked at Chen Xuanfeng and said.

"Xiaojian, if you say that, you'll see the outside! Anyway, I'm also from your father, Huang Hai

Good brothers! Although you have always misunderstood me for so many years!

In the past, these things, especially the treatment of you orphans of the Red Flame Army, were very controversial in the entire empire! You'll find out later!

You say! There is something that is not understood! Uncle answers you! Chen Xuanfeng said.

After listening to Chen Xuanfeng's words, Huang Jian was still very reluctant to have a good attitude with him. But he thought that today's Red Flame Army reconstruction ceremony could make the empire pay so much attention, and Chen Xuanfeng must have made great efforts.

Thinking of this, he still said:

"Good! I'm going to call you Uncle Chen today! I would like to ask why there are so many Praetorian soldiers in charge of security and the Praetorian Guard battle mech troops in the sky on the Fengtian Temple Square.

I just took a look at the group of orphans and retired veterans of the Red Flame Army in front of the rostrum, and those people are tens of thousands at most, but they are all unarmed.

On the Fengtian Temple Square, the number of Praetorian Guards who are now responsible for security, I think this scale is several times that of the orphans and retired veterans of the Red Flame Army, I think it is more than 100,000 people!

What's more, Uncle Chen, look at the formations of these Praetorian Guards and battle mech troops in the sky, they are obviously multi-layer encirclement and annihilation formations based on the rostrum's attack point!

I wonder if Uncle Chen can solve my doubts? ”

"Hahaha! Xiao Jian! Uncle thought it was a big deal! It seems that you have learned some of the fur of combat command!

Didn't Li Hao teach you? He turned out to be a major civilian officer in the archives of the flagship staff department, it seems that he is not a competent teacher! Chen Xuanfeng said with a smile.

When Huang Jian heard Chen Xuanfeng say this, he suddenly became even more puzzled. So, he continued:

"Uncle Chen, please tell me the specific situation!"

"Alright! Xiaojian, uncle doesn't sell off anymore. The reason why there are so many Praetorian Guard soldiers and battle mech troops who are now in charge of security in Fengtian Temple Square, you have already stated the reason.

That is, the number of orphans and retired veterans of the Red Flame Army is also very large, with more than 30,000 people.

After a while, His Majesty the Emperor will come to the rostrum in person, can the Praetorian Guards of the Imperial City of Odin not be in strict formation?

I'll tell you the truth, the number of Praetorian Guard soldiers who came to Fengtian Temple Square today is already small.

Last month's New Year, His Majesty the Emperor came here in person to participate in the New Year's Eve celebrations, and there were 300,000 Praetorian Guards in charge of security!

As for why, now these Praetorian Guard soldiers and the battle mech troops in the sky will put up an annihilation formation of multi-layer attacks on the position of the rostrum, just to protect His Majesty the Emperor! You can quickly eliminate the troublemakers!

These security guards are arranged by the Marquis of Martinris, and he will come over in person in a moment, you can ask him! Chen Xuanfeng said with a smile.

"Is it because His Majesty the Emperor is coming......
