"Who is it? Stop right there …"
When Xia Pingan and Yan Duo appeared outside the valley entrance of Cloud Bay Mountain Base, they were still more than 100 meters away from the entrance. The soldiers of the 87th Regiment guarding the valley entrance immediately shouted with their megaphones.
The sound of the megaphone reverberated between the surrounding cliffs and precipitous cliffs. Along with this sound, many people in the surrounding positions could faintly be seen aiming their guns at Xia Pingan and Yan Duo.
"The vigilance of the people here is pretty good!" Yan Duo smiled and muttered.
The two of them had said yesterday that they were going to return to Cloud Bay Mountain Base. At noon today, the two of them had already appeared outside the base.
As for food, Xia Pingan had already swept through Xinchuan's grain depot two weeks ago and obtained more than 50,000 tons of food.
The two of them were wearing snow camouflage uniforms and cold hats that covered half of their faces. Therefore, the soldiers guarding the entrance didn't recognize Xia Pingan.
"It's me!" Xia Pingan said calmly as he took off his hat and revealed his face.
"Ah, it's Summer Priest. Summer Priest is back …"
"Summer Priest is back …"
"Hurry up and open the entrance …"
The soldiers stationed at the entrance of the valley were so happy that they shouted. Along with the black smoke coming out of the bulldozers, the two bulldozers that sealed the entrance of the valley were opened.
The moment Xia Pingan returned, the news instantly spread throughout the base. Especially when Xia Pingan took out a lot of food in public, the dark clouds that had shrouded the entire Cloud Bay Mountain Base during this period of time completely dissipated and was swept away. The atmosphere in the base began to rise.
Because the snow had gradually melted and the temperature had risen, traces of demon rats and a small number of demon wolves could be seen in the wild. Tu Polu and many other summoners had led the special forces out to "hunt" two days ago and hadn't returned yet.
Xia Pingan, who had just returned, didn't have time to drink a mouthful of hot water before Guo Wei and a large group of officers from the base arrived. Guo Wei placed a radio in front of Xia Pingan and Yan Duo. He turned on the radio and tuned it to a certain frequency. A large group of people held their breaths and waited quietly in Xia Pingan's room in the barracks.
"What's going on?" Xia Pingan asked.
Guo Wei looked at his watch. "If you didn't come back, we would have sent people to Xinchuan to look for you. There's news from the capital bay area. You'll know in two minutes …"
Hearing the news from the capital bay area that had been silent for a few months, Xia Pingan immediately perked up.
Two minutes later, the radio rang. After the passionate national anthem of the Great Fire Country ended, a steady baritone appeared on the radio.
"All the citizens of the Great Yan Republic, all the soldiers, all the summoners, all the warriors who are still fighting, and all the people who are strong and alive in the disaster, hello, I'm Li Chongyang. My previous identity was the chairman of the Great Yan Republic's National Committee of Order and the vice-chairman of the Great Yan Republic's Military Management Committee …
"Our President was unfortunately killed on the morning of October 28th, 2019 on the way back to the capital bay area on Air Force One. The chairman of the Great Yan Republic's Military Management Committee, General Lin Chirui, was unfortunately killed on October 29th, 2019. According to the Constitution of the Great Yan Republic and the Great Yan Republic's Presidential Succession Act, I have officially been elected as the President of the Great Yan Republic and the Chairman of the Military Management Committee of the Great Yan Republic on January 18th, 2020.
"In the past few months, just like other countries in the world, we suffered an unprecedented catastrophe. Our cities were occupied by those monsters, our armies were defeated by those monsters, and we lost our homes, friends, and loved ones. Every one of us has experienced unforgettable pain and suffering.
"The pain and suffering took away many people around us, but it also made those who survived stronger and more fearless.
"We didn't fail. We were only ambushed by those monsters. It was a despicable ambush. They caught us off guard and caused us to suffer heavy losses, but we didn't fail.
"Our soldiers are still here, our fleet is still here, and our summoners are still here.
"We have millions of well-trained soldiers and tens of millions of reserve soldiers. We have the world's most powerful navy and air force. Our summoners didn't suffer heavy losses, and they can still fight those invading creatures head-on." We also have secret back-up bases, and we have contingency plans and preparations for the worst-case scenario. Therefore, we didn't fail. We only experienced a period of chaos and huge losses, but we didn't fail.
"The main forces of our Pacific First Fleet and Second Fleet have returned to the capital bay area. The Fourth Fleet, Ninth Fleet, and Eighth Fleet have appeared on our West Coast. The summoners of the Demon Suppression Headquarters of the Committee of Order have gathered in the capital bay area. The permanent space rifts near the capital bay area have disappeared, and order in the capital bay area is being restored. The legions are regrouping, and the monsters are being eliminated.
"We are a nation blessed by God. Humans will not disappear, and we will not perish. In the next two weeks, all the permanent space rifts around the world will disappear, and in the next 18 years, there will be no space invasions of any level on this planet.
"Don't doubt my words. Time will tell if I'm right.
"In this universe, the forces of darkness and evil can run rampant for a while, but the forces of justice and light will never die. They will appear when we need them the most.
"The time has come for us to fight back and take back our home.
"The time has come for us to eliminate those monsters.
The order of the Great Yan Republic is slowly being restored from the capital's bay area. The nation's heart will start beating again, and the brain will start working again. Our legions and Summoners are slowly advancing from the capital's bay area to the surrounding provinces and cities. The order of the villages, towns, and cities is being restored.
"We have activated the war reserve. In all the places where order has been restored, we are distributing food, arranging production, and reorganizing the legions and combat teams. Our strength is being restored and strengthened bit by bit, while the monsters are weakening bit by bit.
"Victory will be ours.
"Now, as the President of the Great Yan Republic and the Chairman of the Military Management Committee, I hereby order every warrior and summoner in the Fire Country to pick up your weapons, assemble, and prepare for battle. We will be here soon and will contact you soon. I assure you that we will eliminate those monsters, reclaim our cities, take back our homes, and avenge our loved ones and friends who have passed away.
"In view of the current chaotic situation in the provinces, I will re-appoint the Chairman of the Military Management Committee of some provinces. These newly appointed chairmen will arrive at the provinces as soon as possible to restore order in the provinces.
"The Chairman of the Military Management Committee of Ning 'an Province, Hu Defeng …
"The Chairman of the Military Management Committee of Xinghua Province, Wen Zai …
"The Chairman of the Military Management Committee of Jinshan Province, Zhang Chaoyin …
"The Chairman of the Military Management Committee of Haizhou Province, Dongfang Dayu …"
One name after another came from the radio. The room was silent. Xia Pingan listened attentively for fear of missing a word.
Finally, after reading the names of more than 20 provinces, Xia Pingan heard a sentence from the radio. "The Chairman of the Military Management Committee of Yizhou Province, Wang Xihe …"
"The old man is still here. He has become the Chairman of the Military Management Committee of Yizhou Province. He will be back soon."
A few minutes later, the voice from the radio finally stopped.
Guo Wei turned off the radio and looked at Xia Pingan. "Five days ago, this channel received this broadcast. This broadcast repeats every ten minutes. Three days ago, we used the radio in the base to contact the First Fleet in the capital bay area. The order in the capital bay area is indeed being restored. The Sky Phoenix Air Force Base and Gourd Mountain Air Force Base in the capital bay area have been reactivated …"
