Chapter 197: 400 Million Chinese!
On June 11, 313 in the imperial calendar, the brutal street fighting of Marlo, an important city in the central region, was underway, and 300,000 imperial troops and 500,000 central coalition troops fought fiercely around the city.
Maro City is an important transportation hub, there are four railways and a canal through the middle of the city, if the coalition forces occupy this place, they can attack along the four railways and canals on all sides, occupy a great strategic initiative, and in turn the Imperial Army, as long as Maro City is still in hand, they can mobilize a steady stream of reinforcements from the mainland and various occupied areas, so both sides must have Maro City in their hands.
Heavy weaponry was of little use in urban street fighting, with Imperial soldiers hiding among the ruins of buildings, attacking the attacking coalition soldiers from all possible locations, while the coalition soldiers hid behind their massive T-35 tanks and advanced down the streets, carefully watching their surroundings for a heavy hail of bullets at the slightest disturbance.
The coalition soldiers equipped with the MP-18 submachine gun have strong melee firepower, which makes the soldiers of the Imperial Army suffer, so if it is possible, the soldiers of the Imperial Army will try their best to capture a submachine gun to use, hoping to develop and equip similar submachine guns, and the Phoenix Empire has begun to develop submachine guns, but it is far from quenching the thirst, and the soldiers of the Imperial Army want to prepare a large number of submachine guns It is still very early.
Just when Marlo City became a meat grinder, Chang'an City, the capital of the Chinese Federation, welcomed a group of special guests, and a modified Dragon bomber of the Imperial Army slowly landed at the airport outside the city, and the Imperial Visiting Group, or the Crime Questioning Group, represented by Grand Duke Philip, stepped off the plane.
Xiao Bai, who was dressed in military uniform, walked up to Grand Duke Philip and the others and saluted, "Welcome to Chang'an City." I am His Majesty's attendant, Changbai Xiaoxiao. I am ordered to receive you. ”
"The Emperor...... Royal?!"
The black hair and black eyes and facial features are somewhat different from the appearance of humans in another world. To the surprise of Grand Duke Philip and others.
"Royal?" Xiao Bai tilted his little head in confusion.
"I'm sorry I was rude. ”
Grand Duke Philip cast a stern look at the civil and military generals behind him, he was a peer of the imperial family and the current Emperor of Phoenix, full of authority, and the people who followed him were all shut up by his glare.
"Everyone, please get in the car, we have arranged a place for everyone to live. ”
Grand Duke Philip and others got into the car prepared for them, left the airport, and checked into the state guesthouse prepared for them by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
After resting for a day at the State Guesthouse, the next day Grand Duke Philip was summoned by Ouyang Yu and drove to the palace.
Get off the bus and walk into the palace under the leadership of Grand Duke Philip who came to greet Xiaobai. He didn't feel much at first, but as he walked through the office area in front and into the living quarters in the back, he was stunned by the soldiers patrolling the area, because all he saw were royalty with black hair and black eyes.
"This ...... This...... These...... Who ......? ”
Grand Duke Philip pointed to a group of middle-aged soldiers who had just walked by, and he was already shocked and couldn't speak.
"Who is it?" Xiao Bai was confused by the question of Grand Duke Philip, "Of course it's a patrolling soldier." ”
"Soldiers, royal soldiers?" Grand Duke Philip had a bad feeling in his heart, maybe the proud bloodline of the Phoenix Imperial family would soon become worthless.
Walking into Ouyang Yu's dormitory, Ziwei Palace, Grand Duke Philip saw a group of black-haired and black-eyed maids again, and the premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger, when he walked around a corner. A soft, fragrant body suddenly rushed out and crashed into his arms.
Grand Duke Philip was knocked back a few steps, and the man who hit him fell to the ground.
"It hurts, it hurts....... ”
"Your Highness the Princess. Are you alright?!" The two maids ran over and helped Wei Qinghuang up from the ground.
Wei Qinghuang, who stood up, rubbed his little ass that was hurt and said, "I'm fine." Then he looked at Grand Duke Philip, "I'm sorry I accidentally bumped into you." ”
"Princess?!"
Grand Duke Philip was in shock again, when did the Chinese Federation have one more princess? Black hair and black eyes, slightly different from the appearance of humans in another world, should be 100% royal family in appearance, but why did the royal family, which should be extremely noble, suddenly increase so much? And there are so many that even soldiers are royal families? Maybe after meeting that highness, you will know the answer.
"Are you okay?" Wei Qinghuang looked at Grand Duke Philip strangely, just now she just hit Grand Duke Philip's chest, not his head, why did this old man not react to her apology, but looked at himself stupidly? Is there something dirty on my body?
"Ahem, I'm sorry Your Highness, the old man was rude. Grand Duke Philip finally woke up from the shock, and he wanted to ask something, but he reluctantly left under Xiaobai's urging.
Ouyang Yu, who was dressed in white empress etiquette in the reception room, shook hands with Grand Duke Philip and sat down, and just after sitting down, Grand Duke Philip couldn't wait to ask: "Your Majesty, may I ask what happened to those black-haired and black-eyed soldiers in the palace? Also, I met the princess of your country on the way here, she is also a black-haired and black-eyed woman, Your Majesty, this is a very important question for my Phoenix Imperial Family, I hope you can answer truthfully." ”
Ouyang Yu knew that Grand Duke Philip would ask about the guards, but she didn't expect to meet Wei Qinghuang, she replied unhurriedly: "The princess and the soldiers are my kindred, Chinese, so my empire will be called the Chinese Empire, recently some of my clans have left the place where they have lived for generations and come to my empire to accept my protection, and it is very likely that more of my clan will land on the mainland and settle in my country in the future." ”
"Kindred?" asked Archduke Philip hurriedly, "how many people do your people have, and where do they live?"
Ouyang Yu deliberately replied with an unfathomable expression: "There are many people in my clan, and I don't know the specific number, but it is estimated that there are at least 400 million people, as for where they live, I forgive you for not being able to tell you, this is the secret of my clan." ”
"Four...... 400 million?" Grand Duke Philip's mouth was already closed, according to the latest census of the Eastern and Western Continents, because of the continuous decades of war, the combined population of the two continents was less than 600 million, the Western Continent had 300 million, and the Eastern Continent was only more than 200 million. Strategic level, then it will be a force that sweeps everything, and no one can resist it, as soon as he thought of this, Grand Duke Philip's cold sweat fell, and he had to report such important information as soon as possible.
