"I'm sorry! Grand Duke Kastner! Although I care about my fiancée, Princess Luna, right now, there are more important things waiting for me to do." Chris looked at the people walking towards the end of the corridor, filled with emotion.
He said to Kastner apologetically.
"I understand, Your Majesty the Emperor, I completely understand how you feel! I came here just to inform you of the news. Next, it is time for your Minister of Defense to be loyal to you." Kastner was somewhat agitated.
He replied sheepishly.
"Okay! Gentlemen, let's go meet the person we should meet!" Chris tidied up the dress he was wearing, and was the first to take steps towards the terrace of the castle.
Following him were the ministers of Serris who stayed behind. They included Foreign Minister Strider, Interior Secretary Deans, Finance Minister Desire, and Defense Minister Kastner.
Behind these people were the magic advisors Frunzberg and William, as well as Minister Gurlo, Minister of Industry Smith and others. These people, in great numbers, finally walked to the terrace, facing the Sailor.
Everyone in Reese Square.
"This is the first live radio broadcast. Everyone should be more alert." At the end of the wire connected to the microphone in front of Chris, the staff who had debugged the equipment encouraged each other. They were rebroadcasting a radio speech simultaneously.
This is the first time humans can synchronize their voices to other cities.
Chris glanced at the dense crowd standing in the square in front of him, and then glanced at the staff aside. After seeing the other person giving a thumbs up, he nodded slightly, and then said slowly: "
Dear people of Elanthir! I am your emperor, Elantyr Chris."
"Two hours ago, I was shocked to receive the news that the Holy Demon Empire was undeclared war on us and attacked the border of our country's Higgs region." He said while looking at the silent crowd, speaking in a calm and unhurried tone.
slow.
"This is a serious provocation to Eiland Hill and a cruel trampling on our country's honor!" His tone was full of regret, but it was also filled with reassuring calmness and determination: "We will fight to the end! We will fight for
Freedom fights for truth to the last moment!”
"Now, as the Emperor of Airan Hill, I officially declare war on the Holy Demon Empire, as well as the grassland empire and the Dothan Empire that are allied with it..." When he said this, he spread his arms and clenched his fists.
: "Blood debts must be paid with blood!"
After he finished speaking, he stood there, quiet and motionless, as if waiting for something. Beside him, Des and other ministers raised their right hands and waved them to the sky: "Love
Landseer is undefeated!”
"Long live Ailanthir!" Suddenly, countless people shouted in the square, as thick as the mountains and as vast as the sea. The shouts were louder than the waves, and countless people waved their hands.
, Chris' eyes were boiling.
"We will kill the enemy in the sky, we will kill the enemy on the plains, and we will use our lives to defend our homeland! The Ministry of National Defense has now announced that Ireland has entered a state of war, and mobilization has begun! Every worker,
Every young man, every family, must fight for our freedom!" After cheering, Kastner read out the Ministry of Defense's order on war mobilization, marking the entire Ireland Hill entering a state of war.
"Cancel vacations! Implement a 24-hour overtime system! Metals, food, furs... are all classified as controlled items. They may not be bought or sold without permission, and may not be used for other purposes." Gurlo then began to read out the temporary war bill and unify
Manage all war-related materials in order to organize production.
At this moment, the entire Ireland began to transform into a war machine, and the new modern war model that was different from the ancient empire began to show its strength in this country. After a few hours, the country's industrial production speed increased by five points.
First, this can be said to be something that was unthinkable three years ago.
Such powerful efficiency is directly reflected in the production speed of war materials. On the afternoon of the first day when Ailan Hill declared war on the Holy Demon Empire, the number of M4 tanks doubled! A large number of tanks were driven out of the factory even with paint.
They were not dried up and were handed over directly to the combat troops who came to receive the equipment.
In the bullet factory, there is almost no end in sight for trucks and carriages filled with ammunition. They are constantly driving out of the factory and continuing to the distant highway. The ammunition produced by the weapons factory even exceeds the consumption on the front line.
Under the pressure of war, Ireland's ammunition inventory increased reversely for the first time in a state of war.
The training camp was overcrowded that evening. According to the Irish Military Service Law, every young man who is not exempt from military service must report to the nearest military recruitment office after national mobilization occurs.
Therefore, Eiland Hill, which originally had only 1 million regular troops, expanded its army to 3 million within 24 hours after the war broke out! Although many of these troops did not even have weapons, these recruits were still training according to the order
, waiting for their weapons to be transported and distributed to their hands.
In comparison, Elanthir's rival, the Holy Demon Empire, had just sent the news that it needed reinforcements to the governor of the Eastern Province, Bakalov, in the afternoon of that day. As for mobilization, there was no trace of it at all.
Something happened.
The gap in war mobilization capabilities between the two sides was clearly demonstrated in this process. When Ailanthil's main army of 100,000 rushed to Higgs, the army of the Holy Demon Empire was still slowly advancing towards Higgs Nar.
With.
…
"Hurry up! I know what I am doing is willful, but I still can't let go of my people!" Riding on horseback, Princess Luna looked at the knights following her and urged.
"Your Highness, the Dragon Knight may have entered Xigesnar. If we go there now, we will probably only see ruins." The leading guard persuaded his Highness the Princess nervously.
No one can stop the dragon knight's harassment tactics. The opponent can easily cross the defense line and attack the enemy in depth. Except for some tightly fortified places, most villages and towns will become the dragon's hunting ground.
At least in the eyes of the Higgs, this is a war with no chance of winning, even if the army of Elanthir is already very, very powerful from a mortal perspective.
"Even if I can only save one person, I will work hard!" Princess Luna said firmly: "I can't just watch my people suffer while I marry a man I don't know at home."
"Your Majesty Chris is still very brave, Your Highness." Following Princess Luna, the captain of the escort team was like a little follower, trying hard to argue for His Majesty the Emperor, whom he swore allegiance to.
Now he really felt that he was in a dilemma: on one side was Her Royal Highness the Princess, whom he had been following, and on the other was His Majesty the Emperor, whom he had just sworn allegiance to. Choosing between them was simply a nerve-wracking thing.
"If he is really brave, he should be like me at this time, put on armor and go to the front line, so that his soldiers can see that their emperor is standing with them." Luna curled her lips, as if she was worried about her future.
The husband was dismissive.
The knight captain following her wanted to correct Her Highness the Princess's misunderstanding, but finally chose to shut up wisely. He knew that Her Highness the Princess had a stubborn temper, so he felt that he should follow her honestly.
Protect her and be more convincing.
So far, no country that has declared war on the Holy Demon Empire has been able to maintain the security of its rear. Therefore, even though she has seen the strength of the Airan Hill troops, Princess Luna still does not believe that her hometown will not be involved in this war.
reduced to ashes.
So regardless of her upcoming wedding, she decided to come to see the Higgs battlefield in person and see those Higgs civilians who were destined to be in dire straits when she came. Unfortunately, the road in front of her was too difficult to walk, and it was too difficult for her to walk.
This Princess Higgs is a little annoyed.
Tens of thousands of the main troops of the 1st Army, including the weapons and equipment in their hands, as well as logistical equipment, are on the road to Higgs at this moment. Some troops have to seal the road to keep secrets, and the cavalry and infantry units are also on their way to Higgs.
They could only be scattered on all nearby roads, and for a while the entire road was occupied by the army.
Even the merchants who were coming and going were forced to stop. There were army supply depots and rest camps on both sides of the road. In addition to the supply stations and the dispatching stations operating at full capacity, all the roads between Siris and Higgs were covered.
The roads are already overcrowded.
Under such circumstances, it was extremely difficult to rush to Higgs while keeping her identity as a princess secret. During one day, Princess Luna was still stuck in Seris, which made the rush
She was very anxious about going to Higgs.
"How come there are so many troops rushing to Higgs? They have so many things to do, aren't they afraid of going bankrupt?" Princess Luna in disguise frowned and looked at the truck troops passing in front of her. She was very surprised.
I envy those Airan Hill Grenadiers who can travel easily while sitting in their cars.
"We'd better discuss with the local army commander and follow the car troops into Higgs... Otherwise, it will probably take 10 days to get to Higgs Nard." The knight captain of the Princess Guards was a little embarrassed.
He suggested.
"Go and ask...tell them that I will never go back no matter what..." Luna felt so tired. After fussing for a long time, she finally decided to borrow the power of Ailan Hill, which made her arrogant.
She was very unhappy, very unhappy...——
That’s it for today, you don’t have to wait any longer...Thank you for your support and love, Longling will continue to work hard.
