Chapter 248(1/2)
The Polish army was defeated across the board, and this news shocked Europe. Warsaw was in chaos, and everything fell into chaos.
Airship tickets to Paris and London have increased three times a day, and it is still hard to get a ticket. Some people even ride horses to Budapest and Vienna, hoping to buy airship tickets there.
The upper class people are thinking of ways to escape, but the people at the bottom are angry.
They had no way to escape, and they had no money to buy expensive airship tickets. They could only stay in Warsaw, which was about to become the front line.
Disappointed people at the bottom took to the streets to express their dissatisfaction with the government.
"Kill those damn bureaucrats!"
"Kill Buddovsky!"
"Kill the Budoldovsky family and the Kravchuk family."
"Give me back my son!"
"My poor husband, will he come back alive?"
Countless people flocked to the castle square, and the guards guarding the palace were extremely nervous.
They could shoot at these people, but they didn't want to. These people were all citizens of Warsaw, including their fathers, mothers, and even wives and children.
Shooting at one's own relatives is impossible no matter what.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, let's leave quickly. People will soon surround the Prime Minister's Office and we won't be able to leave." Deputy Prime Minister Braggwell looked out the window eagerly.
"Let's go, where are we going?" Prime Minister Nora Chadwick glanced at the Deputy Prime Minister. His deputy was able to sit in this position because he was an idiot enough.
"Go to Paris...! Let's go to Paris to form a government-in-exile." Bragueville said in a panic.
"Going to Paris, what if Paris is also captured by the Ming army?" Nora Chadwick asked.
"Uh... will Paris be captured? How is this possible? The French army is very powerful. I heard that they are on par with the Ming army.
During the Battle of Tsaritsyn, they killed many Ming troops."
"Warsaw is almost unsustainable, but Paris can be saved?" Nora Chadwick glanced at Bragueville who looked like an idiot.
"Then...then go to London. Paris can't be saved, but London will be saved. London is across the English Channel, and the Ming army can't get through." Braggwell said loudly again.
"London? This is a good idea, but we need to stabilize the situation in Warsaw first.
Budordovsky surrendered too quickly, and we were not prepared at all.
We went to London, what should we eat? What should we drink? Where should we work? What guarantees are there?
Have you ever thought about this?" Nora Chadwick looked at Braggwell as if she were looking at an idiot.
"What should we do? Those citizens are about to pour in. The soldiers won't shoot. They are all in the same group as the citizens. Besides, there are too many people." When Braggwell spoke, he actually
With a cry.
It is really rare for a grown man to be scared like this.
Nora Chadwick took a deep breath. If it weren't for this guy being an idiot enough, she wouldn't have chosen him as her deputy.
"Now, we have to stabilize the situation. The Ming army will not attack so soon. They have just occupied Minsk.
Minsk is still 500 kilometers away from Warsaw. Even if the Ming army drove tanks, they would still have to walk for several days.
What we have to do now is to appease these people, and then send away all the gold and valuables in the treasury to London.
With this kind of wealth, we can live a good life in London. Otherwise, will you go to London to enjoy the good times? Or will you wait for charity from the British?"
After hearing this, Braggwell immediately calmed down a lot. After all, Warsaw is more than 500 kilometers away from Minsk. Even if the Ming army wanted to fight, it would not be that easy.
"That...that...! I...!"
"Forget it, I'll go!" Looking at Braggwell who was stuttering and speaking awkwardly, Nora Chadwick could only sigh.
Looks like you can't just use idiots.
Although these idiots cannot threaten their own status, but... they really can't do anything.
Nora Chadwick opened the window and saw a turbulent flow of people coming from the distance.
He straightened his collar, put on his tuxedo in front of the mirror, and then walked out of the office door.
He climbed up the stairs to the arrow tower at the highest point of the castle, carrying a trumpet in his hand.
"Compatriots in Poland, citizens of Warsaw.
Just the day before yesterday, we were betrayed by Budoldowski. He asked the heroic Polish army to lay down their arms and surrender to the Ming army, which was as ferocious as jackals.
I have ordered to contact Budoldovsky's military personnel. Moreover, I have also ordered the frontline troops to retreat.
The imperial government has organized troops to rescue the soldiers trapped on the front line.
I guarantee that as long as your children have not died in the war, they will be able to return home and return to Warsaw. They are all good sons of Poland.
At the same time, I also ordered a search of Budoldovsky’s home, found out all his family members, and put them in jail to await trial.”
Nora Chadwick held up a loudspeaker and shouted loudly to the surging crowd.
After hearing Nora Chadwick's shouting, everyone stopped and looked up at Nora Chadwick on the city wall.
"I keep my word. I am Prime Minister Nora Chavik. Citizens of Warsaw, please believe me." Seeing the crowd quiet down, Nora Chavik felt reassured.
As long as he was willing to stop and listen to himself, he was afraid that his words just now would not be enough to make these people stop.
Everyone was quiet when they heard that the Prime Minister was speaking. They all wanted to hear whether their relatives could come back.
"Citizens of Warsaw, the hero will eventually come back. Please rest assured, I, Nora Chadwick, swear to God here.
Not only do we have to wait for the heroes to come back, we also have to unite to defeat the vicious Ming people.
Otherwise, Poland will become the devil's paradise. All of us will be devoured by the devil.
Poles, unite and use your blood and loyalty to defend this city left to us by our ancestors.
Long live Poland!”
Nora Chadwick raised her hands high and shouted down.
Nora Chavick's speech obviously lacked appeal. If Asch were to come at this time, his speech would definitely make everyone below excited.
Dozens of people in casual clothes blended into the crowd, and when they saw Nora Chavík finishing her speech, they immediately raised their arms and shouted: "Long live Poland!"
Long live Poland!”
With them taking the lead, all the people in Warsaw raised their hands and shouted: "Long live Poland!"
Long live Poland!”
Amidst the shouts of cheers, Nora Chadwick waved frequently below.
However, he also saw that these citizens were obviously not enthusiastic enough. But he had a way. He was once a famous musician in the Olympic Orchestra, and he would never let go of such a good opportunity to show off his talent.
"
The beast wakes up in the dark
Judge the world in the name of God
All fell - even the brothers of Christ
All else fails, but that will never be my country
It’s a bumper leap year
Death is drunk with blood
The sky is bent with lead clouds
All else fails, but that will never be my country
In the flames of half the sky, in the smoke of half the sky
Warsaw is behind us
God is with us!
In the flames of half the sky, in the smoke of half the sky
Poland is with us
God is with us!
The memories of our fathers are not forgotten here
The land of our ancestors has not been abandoned here.
What a price it paid - no words can describe it
Here, no one values their own life for the sake of the motherland.
The power of Poland is once again in our hands
Life and death are all for the motherland
Standing high under the sky
My motherland that never surrendered
To be continued...
