Chapter 418: Monument

Originally, with the temper of the river dragon, as long as there are different opinions in his heart, then he will never accommodate Xiaolong will definitely stand up and reason with him, so Xiaolong will rarely make such a decisive gesture in front of the river dragon, after all, if he is opposed by him later, and the two argue, Xiaolong's face is really unable to step down.

Only this time, seeing that Xiaolong made this decision so arbitrarily, Guo Jianglong did not make any objections, but instead looked at Xiaolong deeply, then nodded vigorously, and then said arrogantly.

"Grandma, that's it! It's a big deal, Lao Tzu, the general manager and the division commander are gone, and when you go down to be a big soldier, you have to fight for this title for your brothers!"

Seeing the demeanor of the dragon crossing the river at this time, Xiaolong didn't know why, but there was a slight gloom in his heart. After all, with Xiaolong's understanding of him, although this man from northern China is rough and arrogant on the surface, his mind is actually extremely delicate, and he is dedicated to the public, so it is rare to have such an impulsive moment. It's just that now, in order to have a place for the souls of those brothers who sacrificed at the beginning, and for the sake of allowing future generations to always see their deeds in the future, this time he is obviously out of the way, and he can't take care of everything.

In fact, Guo Jianglong's demands are not too much at all! Those who were in the first place for the interests of the motherland and in order for the motherland to be able to jump out and win a powerful backup guarantee in the midst of the blockade of the countries that are eyeing the country around them, they have not at all cared about their own safety. Even if they were hated by people who hid in Tibet in the name of traitors, they endured it for the sake of the persistence and loyalty in their hearts!

But at this time, they sacrificed, not even the corpses, I am afraid that there is not even a little relic left, so in order to let their souls have a place to stay, to be able to see the earth-shaking changes in the place where they fought and shed their blood all the time, and so that future generations can always look at their deeds, it is really not too much to build a monument, even if it causes a backlash from country B. Causing diplomatic disputes. But compared to what those heroes once paid, such a price is really not big.

Both of them can be said to be extremely crisp and unobtrusive people, so after returning to the Grand Canyon the next day, Xiaolong immediately wrote down a few thousand words of application. After signing his own name. That Guo Jianglong did not hesitate to sign directly behind Xiaolong.

What the two didn't expect at all was. Within a few days of this request being sent, a reply with the Führer's handwritten instructions was handed over to the two of them through a special channel.

"Yes! You can do it immediately! But try to avoid a backlash from the government of country B!"

Looking at such instructions, Xiaolong and Guo Jianglong couldn't help but look at each other and laugh. It seems that this time the head of state also gave out his support, and he could feel his determination between the lines, but he also expressed his bottom line later, so that Xiaolong and the two of them could be regarded as having scruples!

However, now that they already had Shang Fang's sword, Xiaolong and the others immediately began to prepare, and quickly found professionals to issue relevant drawings.

According to the instructions of the Führer, in order not to cause a backlash from the government of country B, Xiaolong and the others first sent a note to Halim about the concept of this monument, but between the lines, they deliberately blurred the true meaning of this monument, just saying that they wanted to commemorate the comrades-in-arms who died in the battle of Pingding Vog Grand Canyon!

How simple is Halim's political sense of smell to be able to sit on the throne of the president of a country? To this day, he also has a very accurate judgment of the original purpose of the Jiang Long and his party, but now he is in the honeymoon period of cooperation with the Grand Canyon and the Chinese country behind it, but he is unwilling to offend the other party too much, so he directly agreed without too many objections when he heard the song and knew the elegance. And bluntly said that he would be present in person when the foundation stone was laid.

I didn't expect that the most difficult level in the imagination was passed so easily, but it made Xiaolong and Guo Jianglong both feel happy in their hearts, so they increased the investment amount in their countries again, and then began to make busy preparations in the midst of everyone's joy.

According to the design of the drawings, the monument is called the "Monument to the Heroes" and is located in the very center of the entire Vogue Grand Canyon. The monument to the heroes is square in shape and has a total construction area of 2,500 square meters. It is divided into three parts: pedestal, pedestal and monument body, and its total height is nearly 40 meters. The pedestal is divided into two tiers, surrounded by white marble railings, and has steps on all sides. On the pedestal is the pedestal, divided into two layers, the upper layer is engraved with peonies, lotuses, chrysanthemums, etc. floral ornaments, and the lower layer is four huge reliefs, respectively, the team of the river dragon from the beginning of its establishment to the present has experienced the four most tragic battles, and in it is according to the memories of the river dragon, the three hundred lifelike characters are engraved in it, showing that they are still heroic and fearless in the moment of life.

The two-layer pedestal is set off by a huge monument. It is 20 meters long and 15 meters wide, and the front is engraved with several big characters of the Hero Monument inscribed by the head of state himself, which is vigorous and powerful, but it sets off a trace of simple and solemn atmosphere.

After the drawings were completely finalized, the date for laying the foundation stone was quickly set, and as expected, Halim himself came.

Seeing that in the middle of the construction site, soldiers dressed in Chinese military uniforms stood in a phalanx in a neat formation, but Halim and the group that came with him selectively ignored the past, and in the invitation of the little dragon, they delivered an extremely impassioned speech.

In his speech, Halim began to advocate the friendship between China and B since hundreds of years ago, and expressed great regret and heartache for the soldiers who died this time, and after thanking China and the Grand Canyon for their continuous assistance during this period of time, he looked forward to the future and hoped that the two countries would be close as brothers and continue to deepen their friendship in the future.

It can be said that this time Halim also very cleverly avoided the topic that would make both countries feel embarrassed, but kept emphasizing the friendship between the two countries, the immigrants of the former country B in this Grand Canyon have developed a great sense of belonging after getting a job and settling down, plus for a period of time under Halim's governance, country B has been constantly developing towards haode, so this speech made the immigrants who were watching around couldn't help cheering, but the Chinese people in this leased land were more and more recognized。

"After years of bloody battles and the heroic sacrifices of countless heroic soldiers, today we are finally able to stand here as a master! It's just that we shouldn't forget those soldiers, those soldiers who unfortunately sacrificed for today, so today we build this monument for them, we want them to watch the changes that are happening here day by day, and at the same time, when we continue to sing their deeds so that the world will not forget them, we should remember how difficult it is to achieve today's achievements, and we must cherish this result of blood and sweat!"

Xiaolong's speech has obviously touched the nerves of Halim and the rest of the officials present, after all, the national army that strangled Jiang Long at the beginning, in addition to the other Shili's armed shili, is their government army, but they are very haode to hide the thoughts in their hearts again, still with a warm smile on the surface, although it seems slightly stiff, but it does not see that there is too much dissatisfaction.

Under Xiaolong's speech, almost all the soldiers present recalled the difficult time, so their eyes showed a more and more determined look, and under the order of the officer at the head, they neatly picked up the matching guns in their hands and fired three shots into the air in unison.

And among the immigrants who were watching from the sidelines, who had not experienced the precarious life of displacement at the beginning? Therefore, in today's environment, they could not help but be infected, and almost at the moment when the gunfire stopped, they cheered and shouted in unison.

The whole construction site was completely boiling at this moment.

The process of laying the foundation can be said to be unexpectedly smooth, as Xiaolong and others buried the stele that represents the foundation, the entire construction site immediately entered into a tense busyness, and almost everyone participated in this unprecedented scale of construction, whether it was Chinese people or those immigrants.

And just a few days later, at the airport in the Vogue Grand Canyon, Xiaolong at this time slowly stepped into the plane on the tarmac accompanied by Xiaolongnu, and in addition to Lao Song and Guo Jianglong, there were also the two young brother and sister adjutants.

Seeing that the two people in their hearts had slowly left, and inadvertently, the intimacy shown by Xiaolong and Xiaolongnu deeply pierced the hearts of the two brothers and sisters, not only that the little girl's eyes were already faintly filled with tears, but the brother beside her could not hide the gloomy color on his face at this time.

"Xiaolong, remember the trust I gave you after returning to China!"

Seeing that the two of them had already walked into the cabin, Guo Jianglong, who had never spoken below, suddenly said, but then said in an extremely weak voice.

"Good way, my brother!"

The plane finally took to the skies after a short run-up, and then left reluctantly as it circled around the Grand Canyon for weeks, as if it wanted to see the Grand Canyon again.

And at this time, on the top of the highest peak of the Grand Canyon, there was a slightly lonely figure, staring at the plane until it left.

"No. 5, Third Street, Binhe Road, H City! Brother, don't worry, I will definitely go to see them!"

Seeing the disappearing Vog Grand Canyon, Xiaolong couldn't help but say secretly in his heart. (To be continued......)
