The Daling River seems to be the only eternal place in this noisy war. The icy, blood-colored torrent mixed with the terrible blood and the biting ice edges seemed to flow endlessly in the wide river.

The Huaxia people confronted the barbarians across the river, and Da Linghe looked at them and was unmoved.

The Huaxia people attacked, the Huaxia people passed, and Da Linghe looked at them and flowed silently.

The Huaxia people are back, the barbarians are back, and Da Linghe also looks at them, unchanged.

The barbarians attacked, the barbarians passed, and the barbarians were beaten back again. Da Linghe still looked at them, forever silent.

Unlike the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, which the Chinese call the mother, the position of the Daling River in the empire is not so important, but at this moment, this almost eternal and unchanging blood-colored river has become an eternal theme and the final theme related to the life and death of the empire from the beginning to the present.

Everyone knows that without the Da Ling River natural danger, the north of the empire will have a smooth road and no danger to defend. The iron hooves of the barbarian armies can run wild across the vast plains of the northern part of the empire. This would be an unbearable disaster for the northern part of the Empire, which concentrated a large number of heavy magical energy industries in the Empire, and indeed for the entire Empire.

And more importantly, everyone knows that the millions of emperors in Da Linghe are also the last blood of the empire. Without them, the empire will no longer have an elite, large-scale force that can stop the barbarian invasion from the south.

……

But the barbarians have been pressing the Daling River for several weeks, and although they have calmed down for a short time, everyone knows that this is only the beginning of the barbarians' final deployment of forces—and the next thing will be the final decisive battle.

Da Ling River is in danger! The Far North is in danger! The empire is in danger!

For this reason, the people of the empire are certainly worried at home, but they are also sending the greatest forces they can raise batch after batch - whether they are needed at the front line or not, whether the empire prohibits it or not, and frantically transfers them to the front.

There are even students who are still in school, teachers who are responsible for passing on civilization, and some scholars in various cutting-edge fields. They are the seeds of civilization, the hope of the future, and the empire forbids them to go to the front.

But they still said goodbye to their families with tears under the bewildered gaze of the recruiting office, and stepped on the train to the north without hesitation.

At their destination, the Emperor [***] team of Da Ling River was already extremely nervous.

……

At this time, on the south bank of the Daling River, in the various stations of the Chinese army, the stars were twinkling in several conference rooms, and the passionate voices of the commanders of the corps-level troops were also ringing.

"What is the meaning of the existence of the Far North Army? I think every soldier in the far north knows it very well! Here, I don't want to emphasize it either! ”

"But if you lose the Daling River, the Empire's Far North Military Region will all fall! The empire's anointed inland is even more comprehensively ** in front of the barbarians, what does that mean? That means that our loved ones, our fellow citizens, will most likely have the privilege of reminiscing about those centuries of humiliation! Dark! History of enslavement! ”

"That means even more that the Extreme North Legion, which only has a name and no place, can be crossed out from the Imperial battle sequence! What else do you exist? The Far North is gone, what else do you need for the Far North Corps? ”

"So, as a glorious soldier of the Far North, as the commander of the Army of the Far North! I tell you, this war is the last battle of the Empire, and even more so the last battle of the Far North Legion! In this war, every soldier in the Far North has only two choices - death or victory! There is no third way! Do you understand?! ”

……

"Loyalty and Iron Will, Praetorian Guard of the Empire."

"Yes, maybe we don't have the strength of the Far North Army, maybe we don't have the same long-term war as the major border legions of the empire, maybe they think we are a noble legion, a pampered noble legion, we are either noble children, or carrying our military medals, and we are proud in **, but in fact we are nothing, just a good life and an outdated legion with a good past!"

"But now, it's time for us to tell them who the most loyal legion of the Empire is! Let's tell them, Imperial Guards, dare to die! The most loyal Janissaries of the Empire died generously and sacrificed their lives for the country. It's time for me to die and live! Do you get it?! ”

……

"Everyone knows that the two most glorious legions of the empire have become three major since dozens of days ago. Yes! The Goddess Guard Legion is also one of the three major legions of the Empire whose flags are written by His Majesty the Emperor! So, tell me, why is that? Is it just because of the glory of our Highness? Then why are we standing in front of His Highness? ”

"I tell you, it is because of our fearless sacrifice in front of His Highness, and even because we are the most tenacious barrier before His Highness and even the Empire!"

"Generals, tell yourselves, and tell your officers and soldiers, look at your armbands, look at the blood-colored Great Wall dripping with frost and tears! Think about what they represent! The goddess guards and fights to the death! It's not a slogan! It is a solemn promise to His Highness and to the Empire! ”

"I want you to always remember that we are the Goddess's personal guards, and Your Highness will always be behind us! We are the Goddess Guards, and the Empire is always behind us! ”

……

"You may regret not being able to join the mighty Far North, the loyal Praetorian Guard, or the glorious Goddess Guard, but I tell you that I, the Commander of the Southeastern Legion, have never regretted being in the Southeastern Legion!"

"Our southeastern, northwestern, and southwestern legions, can they only be inferior compared to the three glorious legions of the empire? When will my Southeast Army be able to be ranked with the three major army corps, Lao Tzu will be really satisfied! I also hope that when the time comes, you will be satisfied! ”

"Always know that whether it is the Far North or the Praetorian Guard, or the goddess guard who can stand in front of Her Highness in glory, we all have only one name, we are the Imperial Demon War, and we are the Emperor [***] people! We are no worse than them! And this time, it's time for us to prove that we are no worse than them, and even stronger than them! ”

"Generals, look behind us, that's the Empire, it's our compatriots, it's our relatives, it's our children! Whether it's for glory or for them, we have no choice! Fight to the death! Fight to the death! Fight to the death! Do you get it?! ”

……

In the military camp, in the excitement of pre-war mobilization, Yang Qi and Xia left the headquarters. At this time, they were on a small hill on the bank of the Daling River, looking at the surging river, silent.

After a long time, Yang Qi finally spoke slowly.

"Has mobilization at all levels begun? Are all the necessary preparations in place? ”

He asked, looking at Summer.

"Yes, sir." Summer replied: "The final supplies have been deployed, the battle plan has been sent to the hands of every level of combat units, the pre-war mobilization has already begun, and we are ready for everything." ”

"That's good......" Yang Qi nodded.

……

Summer's face was a little worried: "Sir, if this is really a strategic battle, the rest is fine, I'm afraid that after the barbarians open the breakthrough, they will start to dispatch the power of Xingyao." ”

"You know that at the same time, His Highness can only choose between the blessing weakening of the individual and the group, and cannot cast both. This naturally doesn't matter in peacetime, the barbarians are afraid of losing Xingyao in vain, and it is impossible to send Xingyao to fight without a decisive battle, Your Highness only needs to use the aura. ”

"But this time it's a decisive battle."

"Compared with the other side, if the Imperial Starlight Power has the extremely cold gaze and brilliant blessings of His Highness, it will naturally be able to barely fight, and even win a little - but at the most critical moment of the battle, how can His Highness remove the halo and fight with the Star Shine instead, using a single blessing to weaken it?"

……

"And without the weakening of His Highness's single blessing, the Empire's Star Shine power can only barely maintain the balance of power with the opposite side - if the Barbarian War Emperor attacks the nest, we can only have Star Shine to barely match all of them."

"This means that when the time comes, His Royal Highness the King of Qi will also have to participate in the war, but he will not be able to bring His Royal Highness to the war - without blessings, it will be an extra burden, and His Royal Highness the King of Qi may not be able to protect the safety of His Royal Highness who is exposed to the attack of the Emperor of War."

"And if His Highness stays in place to preside over the aura, the strength of the escort group around His Highness will obviously reach its weakest time with the battle situation, and there is no star shine on his side, then, if the barbarians send a secret thorn to raid again...... Then she's going to be dangerous......"

He said worriedly.

……

"You're right! This is something you can't be left unguarded against! Yang Qi suddenly said angrily.

"In case the barbarians find out the chance to win, they feel that they can fight a decisive battle, and they join the Emperor of War, and His Highness will be in a dilemma......

He muttered, but his eyes became more and more full of dilemma and helplessness.

"Let His Highness follow the actions of King Qi and bless him...... Although the safety of His Highness is guaranteed, and it is likely to defeat or even kill their Star Shine, it is more likely to completely collapse the Imperial Army when it loses its aura...... At that point, it's all over......"

"But let His Highness not follow...... Then her safety is very worrying...... Once she has three strengths and two weaknesses, the empire will have to finish playing......"

"What the hell should I do about this?"

In the end, he was dumbfounded.

……

"The General Staff believes that the latter is better."

Summer replied softly.

"After all, we have soul wave vigilance. And our star shine is not in the presence of His Highness, and can achieve a balance of power with the opposite side, plus His Highness may only cause losses on the other side, but the army battle situation is beginning to be dangerous - no matter what, the halo must be, otherwise we may not be able to withstand a few blows and will collapse. ”

"We are already inferior in strength, and we can only maintain the balance of power by relying on the aura of His Highness, but we have been stretched by the Fifth Legion, and if we lose our aura, it will be a disadvantage within a disadvantage, and we will not be able to turn over at all."

He whispered, but his eyes were full of hesitation and reluctance.

"So be it......"

Yang Qi sighed.

"However, you should also ask Your Highness what she means, and let her choose for herself.

He thought for a moment, and then commanded towards Summer. (To be continued.) )
