Volume I: The Battle of Iasi 0067 The Last Moment

Time passes forever.

For Alexander, these five days can be said to be like years on the one hand, and on the other hand, they seem to pass in a flash.

In the early morning of the fifth day, the sky had not yet revealed the whiteness of the fish's belly.

There were still a few stars twinkling in the royal blue sky.

Alexander, who had not slept all night, was already in despair.

The former high-ranking members of the council in Paterbon City, the former government officials, who knew the results of the contact with the Imperial negotiating team five days ago, basically left.

Leaving one after another are some well-informed big businessmen and financial oligarchs in Pat.

Although everyone who left vowed to use all resources and forces to get the House of Representatives and the Senate of the Federal Parliament to send officials at the level of Deputy Speaker or even Speaker, or officials at the level of the Minister of Defense of the Federal Government, to Paterbang as soon as possible.

Those who left, perhaps comforting, but Alexander could only hold on to his attitude.

Pat, Harbang and Kela are the three largest states to the east of the federation and the poorest.

The plutocrats here have placed their future and industry in the more affluent states to the west, in the heart of the Federation, and even in the City of Glory.

Perhaps, now is the last time for those to transfer their wealth.

Actually, Alexander himself wanted to leave, but all his glory and dreams, all his relatives and inheritance, were here.

In other words, his stupidity in the past led him to not be cunning.

He put all his asset allocation in Patbang.

Leave here and he will have nothing.

What's even more amazing is that the Empire's Western Expeditionary Army did not stop anyone from leaving.

This extraordinary move made Alexander's heart sink little by little.

If the Empire had destroyed the city of Pat Bang, as the Empire had claimed, those who had fled would have told the other states of the Commonwealth that the Empire had not been able to cease fire because the Empire had not sent their counterparts to negotiate.

The responsibility for destroying the city and destroying the country is not the Empire, let alone the war provoked by the Federation.

Kill, and punish the heart.

This should be the imperial machia.

Especially in the night, Alexander's men reported that all the imperial sergeants had been evacuated at various checkpoints.

Alexander finally completely believed in the will of the Empire.

This should be preparing for the final battle to destroy the city.

Outside the window of the parliament building, a faint morning light was already shining through.

Alexander stumbled to the window, and the towering silhouette of the Great Temple could already be seen across the side, glowing faintly in the morning light.

Alexander's heart sank little by little.

……

Imperial Camp.

The "Kwua'e" vehicle did not land at all, and hovered dozens of meters above the ground.

Xiao Jingmo appeared in the warroom's war room, he stretched his waist widely, and looked around at the staff members with solemn faces.

Welling wasn't here, he was still on the Kunpeng of Wang Cassia Ming.

"Yes, the deadline is up, we can wait until ten o'clock in the morning."

Lord Xiao walked slowly to the porthole and looked at the dark blue sky outside, as well as the huge dark city in the distance.

"My lord, all the instructions have been issued, and all high-rise buildings and key points have been programmed to lock."

"Okay, wait for the last few hours."

On the Kunpeng vehicle.

Wang Cianming and Yang Jingjiao's expressions were also very solemn.

Such a war, in the history of the empire, has never been there.

Assuming that the enemy must choose this way, the empire might as well show them what it means to be a jade and stone burning decision.

The empire not only has the majestic bodhisattva's kind eyebrows, but also the fierce and fierce eyes of the angry King Kong.

General Wang secretly gritted his molars and made up his mind:

"Lord Xiao has conveyed the attack order in the system at ten o'clock in the morning, and I will go to that temple at nine o'clock and wait for a reply."

"I'll go with you too."

Yang Jingjiao's expression was a little unsightly, he was old, and such a major matter made him quite stressed.

"It's okay, just go and see it."

Welling and Shougong looked at each other and sighed slightly.

The sorrow in my heart spreads out like ripples in a circle.

It is not the empire that has killed millions of people.

This is not the case with any responsible federal government.

Since you have provoked a war, you must consider the enemy's revenge.

In the face of failure, one can only accept negotiations and sanctions, not evade.

Wang Guangbai, Wang Xixin, Li Kongqing, Li Lingyou, and other advance teams also arrived at the scene.

Their hearts are also full of ups and downs.

They may be witnessing history.

……

The sunlight finally broke through the clouds and jumped out of the distant sky.

Ten thousand rays of light stained the entire city of Pathon crimson.

This dilapidated and decadent city actually looks a little beautiful, as if it has returned to the light.

The city also comes alive in the morning sun.

Countless busy people, with a body of illness and hope, repeated the start of the whole day's work.

Vendors are busy setting up their stalls, and the owners of the snack shops are counting up the ingredients and expectations for today's sale.

A large number of Revenants were no longer hired by the military because of the outbreak of war and the result of defeat.

They roam the streets and alleys at random, dumping the bodily fluids they have accumulated overnight in the corners, planning how to get money and food today.

Outside the Great Temple, Alexander, the former speaker of the state who walked with the corpse, seemed to have aged much more overnight.

His originally clear blue eyes became cloudy, and he looked at the gray-robed people in the temple.

Once again, the men had taken out the tables and chairs for the talks from out of nowhere and placed them in the square outside the temple.

There is an obviously young gray-robed man, who is still fine-tuning each table, worried that there is a little bit of not being right, and his attitude towards doing things is very meticulous and sincere.

Is this necessary?

It all goes up in smoke in a few hours.

Alexander didn't look away, but still stood blank, watching them carefully as they laid out their work.

The government of the state of Pat, dissolved before the Western Expeditionary Army arrived.

The state parliament was also dissolved.

Those who should run, they all ran.

left an old guy like himself, whose net worth and life are here, to deal with the empire.

If I run away, this play will be too interesting.

Those bitches were so obedient to the Federation before the war, and now they finally find out that the Federation is the biggest son of a bitch.

His gaze led to the sky with the metallic sheen of the Great Temple.

Lord, have you just given up on your people?

……

Nine.

A huge imperial vehicle flies into the square.

The huge projection casts shadow both Alexander in the square and the venue that has already been set up.

"Kunpeng" slowly lowered and hovered a few meters above the ground.

The hatch opened, and the group jumped down.

The black of the Imperial armament, the black robe of the Imperial Warlock, jumped down in black.

In the huge square, there is a black color that cannot be ignored.

When the personnel jumped, the "Kunpeng" immediately rose, but hovered in the air not far away, bringing a huge shadow to this square.

"Bang bang...... Puff puff puff ......"

Tall, heavy armament, mixed with the slight footsteps of the warlocks, shattered the silence of the world.

That black oppression, little by little.

Already able to see the solemnity written on the faces of those soldiers of the Imperial Expeditionary Army, Alexander tried to sit up straight, maintain the last dignity, and swallowed a bitter saliva:

"Dear ...... General, the last time...... Is it there? ”

The corners of General Wang's mouth showed a look of sarcasm:

"No, Mr. Alexander, there is still an hour before the ultimatum, and the Empire has always been punctual."

Immediately, General Wang looked behind Alexander, and there were only seven or eight people left, which was very different from the dozens of people he had contacted at the beginning:

"Mr. Alexander, you are even just a former Speaker, and you have not left Paterbon, but you can be regarded as a man, admire."

Alexander spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, and the wry smile was uglier than crying:

"General, I have nowhere to go, this is my hometown, and it is also my place of glory......

All of this will be returned to God, and he doesn't care about waiting a little longer.

You see, the Federation, the states that have abandoned it......"

Wang Cianming did not answer, and looked at him quietly.

Yang Jingjiao and the staff and commanders of the Western Expeditionary Army all looked at Alexander quietly.

All of a sudden, the scene turned into an eerie silence.

After a moment, Alexander silently lowered his eyes:

"We picked the wrong opponent at the wrong time and fought the wrong war......"

Everyone was speechless, and subconsciously looked at the eastern sky, where the sun was getting higher and higher in an unstoppable trend.

Alexander looked at all this in despair.

All the black-robed men, black-armed, all of them looked in unison, no longer at themselves, but at the eternal sun in the sky, and the shadow cast by the sun on the massive vehicle.

As the clock ticked by, the shadows shifted little by little.

"Tick ......"

The sweat dripping from Alexander's forehead fell to the ground and could be heard clearly.

Nine fifty-five a.m.

Wang Cianming turned around and raised his right hand.

In the distance, the "Kunpeng" drifted leisurely and descended slowly.

The vehicle hovers one foot above the ground, and the hatch opens.

The group resolutely walked towards the hatch.

……

"Slow down!"

An incomparably old voice sounded in the sea of consciousness of everyone.

The crowd turned their heads to look back.

The old man who had been sitting in the Great Temple, the Great Priest of Paterbon, appeared at Alexander's side.

The monk's robe covered all his withered body, revealing only his clear eyes:

"Please stay! Approved by Federal President Angus and authorized by President of the Federal Senate Theresa, Federal Defense Minister Dimitri is about to arrive to participate in the negotiations! ”

After the old man sent the message, he immediately raised his head and looked at the sky to the west.

Everyone in the Western Expeditionary Army also subconsciously looked at the western sky.

In the western sky, a bright blue flying object appeared, shining in the eastbound sun.

The old man lowered his head and slowly walked back to the dark interior of the temple.

The bright blue flying vehicle arrived in the sky above the square in a blink of an eye, and it was huge.

This is the Federation's top "Blue Whale" vehicle, and its size and various data far exceed many levels such as "Ray", "Manta Ray" and "Anglerfish", and it is the general existence of the "Kwua'e" of the benchmark empire.

The design concept of the "Blue Whale" vehicle is very different from that of the "Kwa E".

It is a streamlined hull form, all of the ship's armament is hidden under the thick armor on the surface, and in terms of flight speed, the theoretical data is beyond that of the same level of vehicles in the Empire.

As soon as Wang Cianming saw the "Blue Whale" vehicle appear, he waved his hand.

The "Kunpeng" vehicle made a beautiful cruise and quickly flew away.

In the "Kua'e Clan" in the distance, Xiao Jingmo let out a long laugh and gave a command.

Like a flying city, the "Kwa E" slowly swept by, like a mountain, causing the pedestrians in the city to stop, bow their heads and pray.

For a moment, the "Blue Whale" and the "Kwa E" were suspended opposite each other in the east and west with the Grand Temple Square as the midpoint.

In terms of size, shock, and threat, the Empire is victorious.

Almost at the same time, a small vehicle flew out of the top vehicles of the two different camps and landed in the square.

Apocalypse 111, July 8, ten o'clock sharp.

The negotiators of the Empire and the Federation appeared at the same time on the Grand Temple Square.
