Chapter 42: Imperial Mobilization and Concealment of Susu
A few hours later, the vast land of China had once again repeated the scene of Yongwu Fenghou a few months earlier.
No matter what they were doing, people stopped what they were doing and flocked to the Magic Crystal Screen, listening to the speech of the Emperor who appeared in the Magic Vision again.
"Industrious, brave, wise, noble Chinese compatriots, loyal subjects of the Empire. Now, it is I, Emperor Xia Zeping, who solemnly address you. ”
……
On the magic vision, the emperor was already dressed in full body, and he sat behind the microphone, his expression was full of solemnity, and he said in a low voice.
"Since the end of the First World War; Since the rise of the Third Chinese Empire in the ruins of the Second Empire, in this vast land ravaged by barbarians; Since the Chinese nation once again proudly stood among the nations of the world and was once again in a leading position. Time...... Hundreds of years have passed. ”
"For hundreds of years, China has flourished and changed with each passing day. Inside, the empire prospered, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment; Outside, the empire is prestigious, allied with the Holy Kingdom of the Western Continent, and holds the most powerful military force of mankind! ”
"All these are the results of the joint efforts and common struggle of all compatriots of our Chinese nation, and they are our ...... A lifetime of pride! ”
……
"However, at this moment, at this moment. I have to tell you with regret and sorrow - the empire is in danger of survival; the autumn of national survival; Even, the autumn of the survival of mankind. Already...... Again. ”
"Thirteen days ago, with the continuous enhancement of our mountain and sea planet magic field, the barbarians who mysteriously disappeared in the depths of the extreme north reappeared in the depths of the extreme north and launched a swift and strange sneak attack on the defense line of our Great Wall. Three days ago, the defense line of the Great Wall of the Empire ...... Lost on all fronts. ”
The uproar suddenly spread across the land of China, and people were already full of shocked looks, and gradually, their faces were even pale.
……
On the magic vision, the Emperor's speech continued.
"Compatriots, subjects. As the owner and leader of the Empire, I am not shy about the initial defeat we are facing—the Empire's Far North Legion has lost more than 300,000 troops. The Imperial Far North Demon Generals are also four out of ten. Even, the six stars of the empire are very likely to fall. ”
People were already letting out deep laments, low weepings were already ringing out in the crowd from time to time, and some families with children serving in the far north were already fainting suddenly.
In the whole land of China, a sad mood arose spontaneously.
……
However, people also saw that the emperor's voice on the screen was gradually excited.
"However, I also want to proudly and proudly tell you that due to the unprecedented use of troops and tactics by the barbarians, as well as the means of sneak attacks and blitzkriegs, the empire was indeed caught off guard and suffered heavy losses. But in this first phase of the battle, the Empire is far superior to the Western Continent—"
"Yesterday, the Empire received a telegram from the Western Continent Alliance to the world asking for help: The Maginot Line of the Western Continent was bypassed by the barbarians with the same tactics and was quickly overcome. At the same time, the Maginot regiment was completely annihilated. Western Continent ...... Defeated and retreated, it has been successfully invaded by the barbarians! ”
……
"And in the Eastern Continent, in the Empire. The old story of the Second Empire is absolutely difficult to repeat in the case of our Third Empire - at present, the Imperial [***] team has successfully maintained the battle line on the last line of defense in the far north: the Daling River defense line. ”
"At the same time, the barbarian raid was also effectively contained by our empire's heroic army - most of the empire's extreme northern legions, most of the empire's high-level forces led by the empire's four stars, have already confronted the barbarians across the river on the defense line of the Daling River! At the same time, the Empire's reinforced Praetorian Guard has quickly moved to the extreme north and is about to arrive in the far north! ”
"Yes, I dare not say that we have been victorious. But I can tell you clearly that the empire will never be defeated like it was in history! Even, this time, we can almost say that it has succeeded! Defend against the enemy outside the borders! ”
Low exclamations and applause suddenly sounded on the land of China, and although people were full of melancholy, they finally lost the dazed and panic when they first heard the news.
And on the magic vision, the emperor's speech still continued sonorously.
"Fellow citizens, subjects............"
"So, yes. Finally, on behalf of the Imperial Cabinet, the Headquarters of the Empire's three armed forces, the Imperial Imperial Family, and the nobles of the Soul Lineages. I solemnly announce to my compatriots: From now on, the Empire will officially enter a state of emergency and enter the national war system! ”
……
"Compatriots in the rear, please work hard. Sincere unity, not afraid of hard work, just to win. Every drop of your sweat will be turned into every ounce of strength in the front-line army! ”
"Compatriots fighting on the front lines, please fight to the death. Fight bravely, not afraid of sacrifice, just to win the future! Every drop of your blood will let the flower of freedom and peace bloom quietly under your watering again! ”
"Children who have grown up under the wings of their parents and the motherland, please grow up quickly. Early said Chengren, for the country, for the nation, for mankind, dedication you may be greater than your ancestors in the future! ”
"Please trust your elders and trust us. If we can, we are willing to use sweat and blood before you grow up to obtain a beautiful and peaceful future for you......"
……
"May war and sacrifice never break our indomitable will, and may noble humanity last forever on this planet."
"May the flower of peace bloom again one day, and may the bright light of my China be in the long river of human civilization!" Twinkle the Stars! ”
"May the souls of the ancestors bless us, and may the heroic spirits of the ages of China bless us!"
"Long live the Empire! Long live Huaxia! Long live humanity! ”
~~~~~~~~~
Yongning Manor, the Zhao family woke up faintly.
"How is Ning'er? Did Your Majesty say how Ning'er is? She grabbed the hand of Zhu'er, the maid who was weeping sadly beside the bed, and asked in a panic.
"Madam, the young master has no news yet, the old man Gu has already gone to tell the old man to talk to him, and begged the old master to inquire......" Zhu'er replied with tears.
"You and Miss, as well as the young lady, can actually go and inquire. One of you is the lady of the country, the other is His Royal Highness the county lord, and the other is the princess of the royal family, all of whom are qualified to be with the military aircraft, just find the royal chamber of waiting. ”
She thought for a moment and added in a low voice.
……
"How do I know how to inquire, how do I know how to inquire......" Zhao's face was full of worry and sorrow, and he seemed to have lost his bearings.
Immediately, she seemed to remember something again: "No! Susu is still pregnant with a child! She shouldn't know yet, right? Oh, she shouldn't know it yet, she can't touch the Magic Vision...... You must not tell her! Did you tell her? Don't let her know! She's still pregnant with a baby! ”
She said almost incoherently, hurriedly.
"Where's Xiao Ning'er? Isn't Xiao Ning'er back? Where did she go? She then asked urgently.
……
"The young lady is walking with the young lady...... "Pearl" replied.
"Don't worry, Manager Gu has ordered the family members not to leak a word for the first time, only to allow everything to go as usual, and not to affect the two young masters in the young lady's belly. We all know it, don't worry. She held Zhao's hand and comforted with tears.
"That's good, that's good, God forbid, God forbid." Zhao muttered.
"God also bless my Ning'er, don't have an accident...... If there is something to do, don't do it to him, but it should be on me. In my life, I have enjoyed the blessings that I deserve, and I can close my eyes with peace of mind...... It's just that you have to bless my Ning'er...... He can't have an accident...... He can't ...... have an accident."
Zhao said in a daze, tears falling uncontrollably.
"Don't worry, it's going to be fine, it's going to be fine." Pearls held her hand, also with tears in her eyes, but she comforted her repeatedly.
……
"Ma'am." When the master and servant were silently weeping, Old Manager Gu's low voice was already sounding outside.
"Is it Lao Gu? Come on in, how is Ning'er? Hearing this, Zhao Shi had already sat up, and suddenly said urgently.
"Ma'am."
Old Manager Gu came in and bowed: "Master Hou is on his way here, during this time, he will personally sit in charge of the manor and preside over the overall situation - the child in the young lady's womb must not be lost." As for the news of the young master, the Hou Ye also found His Majesty through the attendant hall and asked His Majesty for the news. ”
"How is Ning'er? Is there any news of Ning'er? Zhao Shi immediately clenched Zhu'er's hand, but asked impatiently.
"The young master's whereabouts are unknown—but it's most likely fine." A flash of joy flashed on Old Manager Gu's face, but he replied like this.
"Is that so? Is that really the case? God forbid, God forbid...... So where is he now? Is it already back? Zhao asked anxiously again.
……
"Madame, don't be in a hurry......
Old Manager Gu smiled bitterly: "The young master and the Extreme North scientific expedition group are still missing, but Your Majesty, Lord Hou, oh, and the chief of the military department, Meng Guogong, have all been confirmed - although the scientific expedition group seems to be deep in the extreme north, it is very likely that it is still safe, and at this time, they are probably looking for their way home." ”
"That's good...... That's good......" Zhao finally let out a long breath.
"God forbid...... Ning'er, you must come back safely...... Mother doesn't want you to be rich and rich, but only to be safe and happy...... You must come back...... If you can come back, even if your mother dies immediately, you can die with peace of mind...... Ancestors bless, God bless...... Please bless me Ning'er......"
She muttered in a low voice, but ignored it, and closed her eyes and prayed reverently.
……
"You take care of Madame, at this time, there must be no trouble. When the lady calmed down, she told her to pretend that she was fine, and not let the young lady see anything. ”
Old Manager Gu explained to Zhu'er in a low voice.
Seeing the latter nod, he sighed and exited the hostess's room.
……
Master...... And my tiger...... Where are you now...... Are you okay?
When he closed the door, he sighed heavily, but thought with a sad face.
Master...... You must come back alive...... You can't leave your child without a father before it's even born......
Thinking about it, his eyes were already looking out the window.
Outside the window, in the small garden. A small abdomen has been slightly highlighted, and the whole body is gradually exuding a kind of brilliance of the mother's surname, and the girl who is even more amorous is looking at the north with the support of Xie Ning'er, and her clothes are fluttering...... (To be continued.) )
