"I am Marie Adenauer, the current empress of the Holy Roman Empire of the universe, and I now declare to all mankind: The war started by the late emperor was wrong. I feel guilty for all the victims involved in this war. It will be made up for in the future. Now, the Holy Roman Empire of the universe has officially declared its defeat. From now on, all imperial soldiers will surrender to the nearest alliance force..."
RX2 February 1, 2011, is destined to be a day that will be remembered by mankind.
From the morning to the afternoon of Greenwich Mean Time, a total of 33 colonial satellites were attacked by drones controlled by unknown forces, and the number of people affected reached 230 million. At the same time, the entire Earth Circle has been subject to random cyber attacks, causing cities to fall into chaos and paralysis, ships, planes, and vehicles to lose control, and hospitals, police stations, and government buildings to lose their functions.
And on this night, people watched the surrender announcement from the royal family of the Holy Roman Empire in the universe through various methods.
Too many things happened on this day. Whether you are a high official or a powerful person, or a rich man or a poor man, you all need to digest it.
"The Empire is defeated!!! We are victorious!!!"
After the empire's surrender was announced, the streets of major cities and colonial satellites in the Earth's circle were quickly occupied by cheering and celebrating crowds. They believed that this terrible war, which lasted only just over a year but swept through the entire earth circle with 30 billion people, was finally over. Although there are still new crises at the moment, people who are almost suffocated by the war can finally take a breather. Soon, the specific casualties, economic losses and other figures caused by this war will be written in the history books.
In the North American city of Denver, residents took to the streets with torches and flashlights, using various devices to play Queen Mary's declaration of surrender loudly and repeatedly, protesting against the HER garrison who had erected isolation lines on the street, telling them to get out of their homes. , but what greeted them was HER's bullets. After gunshots and painful screams, rivers of blood flowed on the streets. Many people read the map and forcibly broke into the isolation line to resist, but were hit by the roaring shells and fled in confusion.
There is no doubt that the city's HER commander did not want to accept the imperial royal family's declaration of surrender. Here he was originally the emperor of the country, and if he surrendered, he would be sentenced to death.
"The Queen must be under control! There is something fishy about the death of the late Emperor! Loyalists of the empire, the time has come for you to be truly tested!!"
Words similar to encouraging soldiers not to surrender continue to appear within the armies of HER. The number of troops who are truly willing to surrender is pitifully small, and there are even conflicts between the capitulation faction and the main combat faction within the army. The Alliance also took advantage of the opportunity to launch attacks in many places when the HER army's morale was unstable, wiping out many corps.
The universe is also in chaos. During the war, many colonial satellite city-states chose to surrender to or form alliances with HER. Now, although there is a statement from the HER royal family, the HER regiments near the city-state have not yet expressed their stance (some even said that shortly after the surrender announcement was made) They raided their original allies and stole colonial satellites to use as strongholds). The parliaments of the colonial satellite city-states did not dare to make any statements, let alone suppress the protesting people in the satellites, because if they suppressed them, the alliance would definitely come to them in the future. Troublesome.
Earth-Germany-Bavaria
In the Neuschwanstein Castle occupied by HER, General Karl, who was in charge of commanding HER's European theater, angrily smashed his fist on the luxurious wooden table and roared to his subordinates: "It's all in chaos!!! Why did the royal family suddenly surrender? ? Haven't you contacted the royal family yet?! Has the capital really fallen? Can you contact my second son in the capital?"
"Well, I still can't contact the royal family, nor can I contact your son. According to various intelligence, the capital has indeed been destroyed... I don't know who did it."
"Asshole... I have fought for so long, sweated and bled for the empire, and my second son... I have sacrificed so much. Does that yellow-haired girl just want me to surrender with just a few words!? I still have 4 million officers and soldiers! "
The general's men whispered to him: "General, now that the empire is leaderless, I think this is your chance to ascend to power... As long as you speak, the officers and soldiers of our army will support you!"
Karl drank a glass of rum to try to calm down, thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "The empire has so many generals, and the war situation in Europe is also very chaotic now. More than half of the 4 million officers and soldiers under him are not from New Rome. If I stand on my own, soldiers They may not be convinced, there will definitely be a group of people who are not New Rome officers and soldiers who will not be able to control it, and then they may be defeated even faster..."
"Then...negotiate with the new EU or alliance? Let them protect the safety of our senior generals, and if they agree we will surrender."
"How is it possible that they will forgive us after we have done so many bad things in Europe? Even if we agree, it is only temporary, and we will definitely settle the score later!"
"Then...now..."
General Karl said: "Now we need someone with authority to stand up and take the lead in refusing to recognize Princess Mary...the Queen's declaration of surrender, and get the approval of most of the imperial generals, so that we can have room for maneuver in the future whether it is war or peace."
"You! You take the lead, and I will contact the other generals right away!"
"Stop! I don't have the qualifications yet. Although the number of troops I control is relatively large among the imperial generals, I am not the most authoritative... In fact, His Majesty the Emperor is afraid that the generals will have too much power and threaten him. Even the marshal I am not willing to give up the title and only give material rewards to the generals. The other generals have the same military rank as me. How many people will obey me if I stand up? In fact, it is best to find someone with royal blood and easy to control to be the leader. Suitable. But who to look for..."
"General, look at this!"
Another subordinate projected the video on his personal terminal in the center of the room. A person familiar to General Karl appeared in the video because that person used to be one of his subordinates.
"Zhuge Daozi?!"
The content of the video is a notice issued by Zhuge Daozi to all the soldiers and civilians of the empire:
"People of the Empire, you should have received Queen Mary's declaration of surrender. I have bad news to tell you. Her Majesty was forced to issue this declaration! It was the Talion brothers who assassinated Emperor Manfred and Kidnapped Queen Mary, and the Red Knight who tried to assassinate the late emperor not long ago was their accomplice. After the Red Knight's assassination failed, their brothers feared that the incident would be exposed, so they took the initiative to attack the capital New Rome. Dear colleagues, dear loyal men of the empire, At this time when the empire is in crisis, we should unite to hunt down the rebel Talion brothers, rescue Queen Mary, and restore the glory of the empire!!"
"Hahahahaha!!!"
Before he finished watching the video, General Karl laughed happily. He lined up his hands and said to his subordinates: "Immediately contact Zhuge Daozi and say that I am willing to elect him as the temporary regent of the empire. My army will be at his command! By the way, find When the photographer comes, I should also send a video to publicly support Zhuge Daozi and recommend him."
"Eh? Yes! I'll do it right away."
The men left the room in a panic. Karl looked at Zhuge Daozi in the video with a ferocious smile, and thought to himself: "Zhuge Daozi, you are still too young after all. I have your leverage in my hands. I can take the position of regent at any time." I can drag you down until the right time comes..."
