Chapter 1574： rest in peace

Chris walked onto the podium in a huge hall that was so spacious that it was numb to the scalp.

In front of him were piled up with microphones, and not far from him, there were all kinds of cameras broadcasting the whole country. Behind him are two rows of eagle flags of the empire, and a red imperial royal flag is separated between the eagle flags.

As the emperor of the empire, Chris wore a white dress with a golden ribbon and various medals on his chest.

The golden epaulettes shone dazzlingly under the flash and lighting, and the cuffs of the white dress that was ironed without wrinkles were also embroidered with golden vines.

After walking to the podium, he made a gesture of completion of the ceremony, and the tens of thousands of people in the audience sat back on their seats after the ceremony.

Chris leaned close to the microphone and started this speech: "Actually I don't want to stand here and host such a meeting! The empire has been on the road to victory since its birth and to this day...until today ."

"The empire can have today's glory, relying on countless loyal and brave men to throw their blood and devote their lives on the battlefield!"

"Those warriors who died on the battlefield in the past ten years or so, I always remember that I dare not forget, I know that you, like me, miss these great people who sacrificed their lives for the country!"

"Today, in the Higgs region, on the Higgs 4 and Higgs 5 planets, there are still countless soldiers fighting for the empire. They are facing the most ferocious enemy, and they are fighting several times the number. The enemy fights!"

"Even if they were crushed to pieces, they didn't take a step back! Why are they so brave? It's to let the compatriots of the motherland behind them be bathed in the peaceful sunshine!"

"In the Higgs war zone, we kill hundreds of soldiers every minute! Some of them are clones, some are puppet robots, and there are real natural people, elves, dwarves, dragons, orcs, demons... They are all true warriors, I Proud of them!"

"Even though I know that I will avenge them, and I will personally kill those **** who are proud of my country! But..."

"But today, they did give me their precious lives! The territory of the empire is still being invaded by the enemy at this moment, and **** who call themselves guards are still raging on Higgs 4 and Higgs 5!"

…

On the battlefield of Higgs 5, in the underground bunker, under the light flashing because of the unstable current, the clone grenadier of the Ailan Hill Empire is leaning on the slightly damp concrete wall, passing through the sandbags. The gap, looking at the other end of the dark passage in the distance.

That is the direction of the enemy's attack, and he just retreated from that direction. All his comrades in arms have been killed, and now he is left alone in this position.

There was still dried blood on the ground, and the corpses of his companions were placed neatly on the other side. This was his last respect to the martyrs.

…

Ailan Sirius, in the conference hall, Chris is still slowly saying: "Their warships are still fighting against us! Their butcher knife is still hanging over all the peace-loving people of the Airanhill Empire!"

"We will never agree to such a thing! We must fight for the empire! We must fight for glory! We must fight for the power to survive!"

"The lush pine and cypress are bowing their heads in silence, quietly, you are lying on the battlefield of Higgs 5, like a dreamy mountain, playing a silent love song..."

"The heroes who slept on the Higgs 5 planet...Today, we have a very sad and admired mood to express our deep respect and sad condolences to you!"

…

Inside Higgs 5’s underground bunker, the wet concrete wall vibrated slightly, and cracks began to appear on one side of the wall. The only remaining grenadier frowned, then raised his weapon and aimed at the more and more. The bigger the crack.

Suddenly, the crack broke open, and a sweeper soldier poked his head out. He had just seen the scene in front of him, and an electromagnetic rifle bullet penetrated his forehead.

"Suddenly!" The grenadier holding the rifle pulled the trigger and poured countless bullets near the tunnel exit opened by the sweeper.

One after another, the sweepers were hit and fell down, and their screams echoed through the tunnels of the underground bunker along with gunfire.

On the other side of the passage, in the invisible darkness, the dense sweepers rushed out of the darkness, sullenly rushing to the Ailan Hill Empire position that shone with the light of the muzzle.

…

In the brilliantly lit and solemn hall, Chris’s voice echoed: “In countless cruel battles, you carried forward the lofty and fearless spirit of patriotism. You are brave and tenacious, and you are brave and tenacious. An inch of empire's land!"

"You successfully completed various combat missions, achieved victories time and time again, played out the might of the country, and created many heroic deeds that swallowed the mountains and rivers to shock the enemy's courage!"

"In the more than a month-long battle of Higgs 5, a large number of outstanding heroes and individuals emerged, and they used their blood and lives to compose a mighty and majestic triumph."

"You, like a piece of coal, like a bundle of firewood, ignited yourself and burned those arrogant enemies! You brought fear to the enemy, turned into light, and illuminated the future of the empire!"

"In order to defend the territory of the empire, for the dignity of the Ailan Hill people, you fulfilled your promise and fought to the last minute!"

…

"Go to hell!" Seeing that the surrounded grenadier pulled off the pull ring of a grenade and threw the grenade into the sweeper army rushing in the tunnel.

"Boom!" Accompanied by the swaying explosion, the opponent's offensive seemed to be delayed for a moment.

At this moment, the grenadier picked up another electromagnetic rifle that had been pre-loaded with ammunition from his side, and started shooting again.

From time to time, a black energy group flew over his head, and one explosion after another burst near him. In the rain of bullets, he lighted up another magazine, then dropped the rifle in his hand and grabbed another electromagnetic rifle from the ground.

"Ah!" He was already hysterical, and started firing again, killing the Sweeper soldiers who were about to cross the sandbag.

On the other side of him, the sweepers who had broken the wall finally found the opportunity and got out of the narrow gap.

"Ka!" The enemy was already close at hand. The grenadier pulled off the tab of another grenade and threw the grenade into the corpse of his companion lined up against the wall.

On these corpses, there was also a large pile of explosives and grenades scattered deliberately.

"Boom!" This time it really shook the mountain. The entire tunnel collapsed in a tragic explosion. Darkness swept everything. The rising dust and mist raged in the small space, and then everything fell into silence.

…

Chris held his chin up, and in the flashing light, his tone was heavy: "You heroically gave your precious lives, you sacrificed your bodies, you carried the heaviest of everything, and left all the goodness behind you. motherland!"

"I promise! You will never leave a pile of dead ashes. The prosperous grass will become greener for you, the free flowers will bloom more red for you, and the younger generation of the Ailan Hill Empire will be even more Grow up vigorously."

"You will not sacrifice in vain, because there will be countless later people who will take the burden from your hands! They will continue to move forward and pass on Ailan Hill forever!"

"Although your life is so short, its value is so precious; you dedicate your life to the people of the motherland, and your golden...symbolizing the brilliance of the national spirit will always shine on the people who follow, and will inspire the next generation. …The next generation will march forward bravely to build an eternal empire like Huitie!"

"Cough...cough...cough..." He tore off his face mask and spit out a mouthful of blood. In the cracks of the collapsed cement stone, the clone grenadier of the Ailan Hill Empire found that half of his body was already Was crushed under the gravel.

If it hadn't been for the protection of the power armor, he might have died. He wanted to struggle, but the pain was tormenting him. In the end, he could only give up and enjoy his own moment of tranquility in the dark.

There were some sandbags around him, and it was these sandbags that helped him hold up the falling rocks, which made him lucky to survive. He groped with his only movable hand, and finally found something familiar to him.

Grenade, a good grenade...

This thing has always been with him, helping him kill enemies when he fights, and giving him courage when he is desperate.

Therefore, he smiled when he touched the grenade, it seemed that everything had its own will. He knew that his lower body was bleeding, and soon he would die from excessive blood loss. Instead of doing this, he might as well be a vigorous one.

So he pulled the tab on the grenade with his thumb, and then pressed the safety lever of the grenade with his hand. After a while, he lost too much blood and lost consciousness, his fingers would loosen, and the grenade would explode.

With a bang, what a heroic life. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smiled, showing his teeth covered with blood.

At this moment, the stone in front of him moved, and it seemed that it was being moved away by something. The next second, the stone was removed, and the ugly face of a sweeper appeared in front of the grenadier.

"Unexpectedly, there is still a living here!" The sweeper's unpleasant voice seemed to contain a hint of surprise.

What surprised the sweeper was that the smile on the cloned grenadier's face was even greater at this moment. He released his grenade hand, then grinned loudly.

"Boom!" The explosion swept through everything again, tearing apart the invaders and soldiers in a small space at the same time.

…

The speech to mourn the death of Higgs is still going on, and Chris's voice still echoes in the hall: "The spirit you created with your blood and life has penetrated into people's hearts and has become a valuable asset for hundreds of millions of people."

"Today, I am here to call for your souls, I hope you can hear my call! I hope you can feel that I...as the emperor of the empire, the infinite reverence and affectionate miss of Ailan Hill Chris."

"The monument engraved with the achievements of the warriors will stand high in Ailan Sirius, and all the descendants of Ailan Hill will pay their respects here. It is the spiritual epitome of the people of all ethnic groups in the Ailan Hill Empire, and it will tell everyone The true value of life! It will be a beacon, guiding every Ailan Hiller to move forward."

"Now, I am standing here as if you are standing by our side! I am standing here with agitated emotions, I wish I could move forward with you side by side!"

…

"General! The No. 14 main bunker has just been lost... The commander over there insisted to the last moment. The tunnel collapsed and the ammunition depot was detonated ahead of time..." Higgs No. 5 surface, in the lowermost headquarters of the main fortifications, the adjutant lowered The voice reported to Andre what had just happened.

He paused for a while, and then said the bad news: "The anti-aircraft missiles have just been exhausted, and in another 24 hours at most, we may lose all air superiority."

"At this time, I can only wait. I don't need any more combat orders anymore. Stand on the ground to the last minute. This is the only thing we should do." Andre squeezed a smile and looked. Looked at the adjutant and said.

After speaking, he looked at the officer beside him: "Keep your voice louder. You must listen to what your Majesty specifically said to us. This is our glory, a unique glory!"

A slightly disturbing voice from Chris came from the speaker of the receiver: "If you are crystal drops of water, humming and humming a war song and flowing to the sea, then our heroic soldiers will be like countless small drops of water. Behind you, break through the stormy waves."

"If you are the stars in the universe, even though they have fallen, there will still be countless small stars radiating their own faint light in the Milky Way."

"The rugged mountain roads have been leveled by you, and the Golden Avenue needs to be opened together with us. The ideal sails have been raised high. We will follow your footsteps to finish the road you have no time to walk. I swear to you here. , Victory will always belong to the Ailan Hill Empire!"

"I, and all the people of Ailan Hill, will always remember your achievements and cherish the hard-won peace that you have exchanged for your blood and life."

"Martyrs, rest in peace! Your soul, be with me!" After the passage, there was only a faint electric current in the receiver. After a few seconds, warm applause, through the loudspeaker, and the mountain call Tsunami usually comes.

"You said, can my soul return to my hometown?" Andre asked the adjutant.

The adjutant was taken aback for a moment, and then solemnly replied: "It will definitely be possible."
