Cai Bixia can be said to be the only sane person in the stormtroopers. In fact, she did not join the stormtroopers entirely out of her original intention. She only joined passively because of her lover Xiang Ying.
Everyone in the Chinese community knew that the two of them were a couple, and they could only live together as husband and wife.
It is precisely because of the existence of Cai Bixia that the extremely fanatical militarism of the stormtroopers has a little buffer and a little sense.
And today, Xiang Ying's madness was once again opposed by Cai Bixia. A lonely battleship wanted to challenge the entire French fleet? The only people who can do such a thing are lunatics.
But Xiang Ying was probably going crazy today. He listened to his lover's scolding and didn't refute. He just shook his head and said with a smile, "Crazy? Yes, I am just crazy..."
"War, a human behavior, is originally the behavior of a madman. Since we have joined this game, we must play it to the end!"
"At this moment, it's not that I, Xiang Ying, am going crazy, it's the whole choice of our navy to go crazy! Disobeying the orders of the head of state, how big of a deal it is, I know better than you!"
"Who is the head of state? He is our mentor, the founder of the Chinese nation, and the god who saves the nation from crisis! He is a dragon on the East China Sea!"
"I think no one ever thought that one day they would disobey the orders of the Führer!"
"This is an important decision, and a difficult one! Whether you want to be a soldier who follows the rules, or an adventurer who dares to explore, this decision is for you to make!"
"Cai Bixia, you are not qualified to lead the Four Hundred Warriors on behalf of the Zhiyuan, and I am not qualified either. I am just a great Chen Po, and I am just telling everyone that there are two choices before you!"
"Should we obey the orders of the head of state and preserve our strength? Or rush out and open bloody wounds in the French fleet's array, this is just a choice our navy must make!"
"Go back to Hamburg, under the protection of the fort, and watch the enemy wreak havoc? I don't want such a choice anyway!"
"The destiny of the navy is to fight. Just like the reef belief espoused by the British Royal Navy, I will fight him to the end no matter how angry the waves are!"
"Charge out and take the initiative to fight. Even if you die in battle, you can tear off pieces of bloody flesh from the enemy's body. Even if you die together, you must make the enemy terrified!"
"Let them remember this war and plant deep fear in their hearts, so that they will tremble when they see the battle flag of our Chinese nation from now on!"
"Such a sacrifice... is exactly what I want!"
"Life is as bright and short as a summer flower, so why linger on the bed struggling to death!"
"Brothers! What's the difference between dying today and dying the day after tomorrow! Should you choose to die of old age and die in obscurity in forty years, or risk your life to leave a name in history?"
"Today...the choice is in your hands!"
Xiang Ying's passionate voice even overwhelmed the waves. There was deathly silence on the Zhiyuan. All the soldiers were deeply shocked!
There is no doubt that the Head of State is the god in the hearts of everyone in the Chinese nation. These loyal soldiers probably never thought until their death that they would one day disobey the Head of State's orders.
But the navy is the navy. From the moment the army was founded, offense has been their destiny. Facing a strong enemy and not daring to fight is not what they want!
The French fleet is approaching step by step. These naval warriors have not yet made any contribution in the Franco-Prussian War!
Everyone is shouting the word "fight" in their hearts, but what weighs on these two words is the real dragon of the head of state!
Humanity! People always show sincere awe to the pioneers of a country. The founding emperors are always different. This type of people are often endowed with a lot of mythology.
Xiao Letian is undoubtedly such a person. Although he has made it clear that he will not proclaim himself king or emperor, this will not affect the people's worship of him and his continuous creation of gods.
The Hidden Dragon of the East China Sea is already Xiao Letian's code name. This title has been circulated for a long time within the Chinese people and even in all enlightened places in the Qing Dynasty.
Although the hidden dragon is hidden, it is still a dragon!
How dare mortals disobey the dragon's power?
A decision was being made on the Zhiyuan that affected the fate of everyone, and on the border of Belgium, in a small castle on the banks of the Sermois River, Xiao Letian was also looking to the northwest.
He looked at the dark sky with his hands behind his back, as if he had seen this decision made against his will.
Xiao Letian's hand was behind his back, and he held a page of telegram in his hand. This was an urgent telegram sent to him by Fang Guan. Nothing Xiang Ying did could escape the eyes of the head of state.
But Xiao Letian didn't give any instructions, didn't say anything, and didn't even tell Wang Huaiyuan.
"Is it finally time for the navy to make a decision? Hahaha..." Xiao Letian laughed.
"My guess is absolutely correct. Militarism finally sprouted from the Navy. They are finally starting to sprout!"
"It's great, it's really great! The bloodthirsty and warlike genes of the Chinese race have been preserved in the navy. It can break through the boulder I pressed on, and it can break through the test I designed. Today is the most critical moment! "
"Tell me your choice! Whether you can get a perfect score in this exam depends on your choice!"
No one knows that all Xiao Letian's heavy pressure on the stormtroopers is just a test!
The Zhiyuan is the foundation of the Chinese navy and the founder of the future Deep Blue Fleet. Outsiders see the Zhiyuan as winning streak, fighting all the way from Europe back to Ryukyu. Its illustrious military exploits have made it famous!
But these tests are not enough, Xiao Letian will add a more severe test, and that is himself!
"If the country has dissatisfied officials, the country will not be destroyed! If the family has dissatisfied sons, the family will not be ruined!"
"A country or a nation can never have only one thought. I need civilian politics to balance and stabilize the situation. I also need passionate militarism among the Chinese to preserve the martial spirit of the Chinese!"
"There is no right or wrong, no good or bad. Any kind of thought depends on how you use it!"
"Militarism is very dangerous. Just like a sharp sword, it can chop off the enemy's head and cut the Chinese's own hands!"
"But no matter how dangerous the sword is, it is necessary and should exist!"
"The Chinese nation I created will definitely not have a situation where civil servants *military generals, and certainly there will not be a warlord style where militarism controls everything!"
"Xiang Ying! The heavy pressure I put on you is just to build a scabbard on the sharp sword of the navy!"
"Should it be crushed into a piece of scrap metal? Or continue to shine with cold light? It depends on your choice now!"
"The future of the Chinese people cannot always be decided by me alone! It's time for you to make a choice!"
This is the emperor's mind trick. You can only guess but no one will ever tell you. Everything Xiao Letian muttered to himself today will not be heard by anyone.
It is foreseeable that if Xiang Ying makes a disobedient choice, Xiao Letian will scold and punish him like a thunderstorm. Although he is extremely happy in his heart, the emperor's mentality will never let you see his true intention.
Life! Most of the time, you have to rely on your own suffering to understand the truth, rather than other people's advice!
What you get on paper is shallow, but you know you have to do it!
How can the world see through Xiao Letian's good intentions!
"Breaking through...the soul of the navy has been condensed! Don't let me down!"
