Warhammer 40k: Far East Storm

Chapter 201 Rest in Peace

"I once resisted the attacks of thousands of our enemies on the hellish battlefield. I once fought face to face with the horrible demons from the deepest part of the abyss. I am an Astart monk. I led the Knights Templar between the starry and the starry sky to bring death and the emperor's enemies. Anger, no matter how powerful the enemy is, we are not afraid! I'm Lee, the head of the Knights Templar, the consul of Zhiyuan Star. I stand here, standing in the resting place of the spirits and talking to you.

Li stood on the top of the mountain and gave a speech to the camera and microphone and a few audited reporters. There was a blue and almost transparent sky beside him. At such a height, there were no clouds. If you walk on the snow under your feet for a while, you can reach the edge of the mountain and look down in an arc. The vast land is endless, and the clouds are floating leisurely under their feet.

Behind Li on the camera is the rest hall that has just been built. From now on, because of this building located on the highest mountain of Zhiyuan Star, the Knights Templar has an inexorable connection with Zhiyuan Star. The remains of all the brothers of the Knights Templar will arrive here for burial. This will become a place for heroes to sleep, and their lives and deeds will be recorded in detail. Engraved on the steel monument, let the heroic deeds of these soldiers pass on forever.

This is the first time that Li has appeared in front of the people of Zhiyuan Star. Before that, most of Li was hidden behind the media. Even if the people of Zhiyuanxing knew that they had a consul, there were few channels to know the news of the consul. As long as Li did not want to, no media dare to pay attention to Li. At this time, Li was wearing the consul's costume and removed the bustling decoration and bright colors. The main body was mainly black, which looked solemn and solemn. Coupled with Li's serious and delicate face, he had conquered countless audiences as soon as he appeared.

At the moment when Li opened his mouth, almost all the people in Zhiyuan Galaxy saw Li's face in various ways. On the TV in the street window, in the big screen in the square, in front of the screen in the Internet cafe, on the TV sets of tens of millions of families, different channels were playing Li's face. Rong and his speech.

At home in an ordinary city of Zhiyuanxing, the young father turned on the TV while shaking the baby in his arms and saw Li's face.

At this moment, the whole Zhiyuan Galaxy is listening to Li's voice.

"I am one of the monks of Astart. I have nothing to fear, but I have been afraid and have been afraid. In front of powerful enemies, I also tremble like a coward. I am afraid of death. I am afraid of powerful and horrible enemies. The insurmountable terror makes me deeply in despair, but I The former commander of the regiment said to me, 'We can only fight and die, and there is no way to retreat for a long time.' We can only fight to the death and get a glimmer of life, and that glimmer of life is victory. The enemy will never give you mercy, never! Failure means destruction. Fear does not allow your enemies to be kind to you; fear does not give you a glimmer of life. Only by rising up and resisting can we make our relatives safe, let the dead rest in peace, let honor be added to ourselves, and make ourselves have no regrets!"

The homeless people in the slums patted the dilapidated TV from the garbage and adjusted the antenna made of cans. More people sat on the ground like this, looking at Li's face on the flashing snowy TV screen. In the old speaker, Li's voice The unusually clear echoes in the slums.

"We are all facing death, and our end will eventually be the same. The sickle of death hangs on the neck of each of us, humbly shrinking at home like a coward, waiting for the enemy to catch you out of your home like a slaughtering beast, or facing the enemy's bayonet, stepping on the enemy's blood and Corpse, use courage to win honor? Do you want to live a mediocre and ordinary life and finally die on the sickbed, or do you dedicate your youth and life to protect the distant stars and the great cause of human beings? This is about personal choice. In times of suffering, in the time of war, do you choose to stand up, take responsibility, protect others, fight for the god emperor with honor, or hide behind others and be protected by others, shamefully wait for the final arrival of death. No matter what you choose, I will tell you that as my old regiment leader said to me, we will fight and die, and there is no way back. Today, we have won the victory on the battlefield of Zhiyuan Star, but on the battlefield of the Autumn Star, the enemy has not stopped to launch a ferocious attack on us, not to obtain land, nor for doctrine or ideals, let alone for interests. They just destroy us and cut off our heads. The skull, decorate their homes, kill our children, just entertainment, destroy our city and civilization. We don't need any reason. We have no way back, only fight to the death, and win, and pay tribute to the dead with victory and glory. Only in this way can the dead soldiers rest in peace, and we can gather here to pay tribute to the dead spirits and protect our civilization, women and children.

On the autumn star, the soldiers squatting in the trench have just repelled a wave of orc attacks. During the interval of the battle, they smoked silently and listened to Li's sound from the radio.

"Today, before the rest hall, we worship the dead and comfort the living. The heroes fight in the name of the holy emperor. They fight bravely, regardless of their lives, face the enemy's muzzle with their chest, and cover their brothers from injury with their bodies. They have never retreated in front of the fierce enemy. They fought until they die. Today, we can finally rest in peace. Today, they will sleep in the rest of rest, but their spirits are still watching us. Will we continue to fight bravely? Are we timid in our hearts? Are we always on the alert? The spirits will return to the arms of the emperor. They have gained enough merits and honors. They have obtained the qualification to rest, but we still have to move forward, continue to fight, and fight and die, because we have no way out!"

"In the rest garden on the top of the mountain, the soldiers of the Knights Templar will sleep in it. They have withstood the unimaginable pain of ordinary people. He has withstood all kinds of harsh tests. They are the knights of the glorious Knights Templar. They sacrificed in an extremely dangerous task, and they die in their right place. However, this heroic sleeping palace is not only built by knights. Any soldier, any soldier who died for the distant star will be buried here. All the heroes who died in the war will gather here, and all the war dead will be sacrificed. Their names will never be forgotten and will be remembered forever. !"

"This is no longer an era of peace. The war has burned around us. No one is immune. Whether he is rich or poor, whether he is noble or humble, whether he is old or child, whether he is a good or bad person, we are the same. The battle has arrived. In front of the battle, the brave will be able to rest and sleep. Even if they sleep, they will sleep on the top of the world, and coward will die of shame!"

"Next, please enter the resting place."

Above the peak, the deep trumpet was blown. With the slow drums, the soldiers came from not far away carrying coffins step by step. Their pace was heavy and slow, as if they were afraid of the bumps of the warriors on their shoulders, disturbing their sleep. In a short time, the coffins were carried into the rest hall. Deep down, after the temple, there is a garden built above the sky, and the warriors will be buried in the sound of flowers and blessings.

The reporter and the camera followed the coffin into the sacred hall. Only then did the audience clearly see the sacred and majestic hall in front of the TV. Steel and rocks constitute the main body of the temple. On both sides of the hall are the reliefs of heroes. Lifelike sculptures describe a fierce battle. With a steel inscription, it narrates the lives of heroes. Between the pedestrian and the other, you will naturally feel your own smallness and the greatness of the spirit.

Leaving the camera, Li walked to Yabug, who was standing in the corner of the crowd, and casually asked, "What did I say?"

"Very good." Jacob said, "I believe that there will be more people who want to enter the Knights Templar next year. In the future, we will no longer have to worry about the source of soldiers. From now on, the Knights Templars have really taken root in this land. This is our hometown."

"It is also our ultimate place to sleep." S

"Why do you say that?" Jacob asked strangely, "With Lord Li's current situation, even if you fight for another thousand years, it won't be a problem. Do you have a bad feeling?"

"No, I'm even more confident than you. I believe I can continue to fight for 3,000 years. If the enemy has always been at the current level of orcs, it is not known to continue to fight for 10,000 years. But no matter what, I will eventually usher in that moment.

"You are so pessimistic," Jacob smiled and said, "In ten thousand years, who can think what it will be like in ten thousand years? Maybe mankind has won and peace has come.

"I really want to say that you are too optimistic, but if there is such a day, I will be at a loss. What are we? We are soldiers. If there is no battlefield, where should we go?

"Isn't it good to find a place to drink tea at ease? I think this place is good. If the war is over, I hope to stay here. The environment here is good and quiet. How about you, my lord?

"Me?" Li was silent for a while, "I will eventually die on the battlefield. After all, this is our fate."
