1157 Imperial City In Crisis 2 (1/2)
He had never known, with the Dragon Robe on him, what he gained was not just status and authority, but his shoulders were also burdened with whether the Qi Kingdom lived or perished. He had never known that the citizens of the Qi Kingdom, would step forward in a situation like this!
At that moment, Mo Qian Yuan felt an immense pride. He was proud of himself to be born into this country!
The most glorious thing that had happened to him in his life was to have become the ruler of the Qi Kingdom!
Proud of the people of the Qi Kingdom, proud of the men of the Qi Kingdom's army!
Although the Qi Kingdom was small, but everyone within the Qi Kingdom, the soldiers with the people, came together to protect their country!
To defend the pride of the Qi Kingdom!
With such an army, with such people in the country, how rare and precious was that?
Even if the Qi Kingdom was to fall, the backs of the people in the Qi Kingdom would not bend!
Rather a broken jade piece than a tile whole! [Translator's Note from Cloud: (Chinese idiom) In this instance, sensible replacement would be: Rather choose death than to suffer dishonour!]
”Duke Lin! The city's gates are not going to hold!” A soldier pushing against the city's gates shouted out in terror towards Jun Xian who held command of the forces within the city. His eyes were filled with fear, a fear not borne from the fact that he was about to face the enemy and meet impending death, but a fearful despair that the country was about to fall!
[From the time when the Qi Kingdom was founded, how many battles big and small have they seen? How many invasions from stronger forces have they pushed back? Although they were not considered to be a powerful country, they nevertheless held their own belief. They defended their lands and protected their homes, all because their belief had never wavered, that their country must not fall!]
[After having struggled through the tumultuous wars at the founding of the country, to finally enjoy a period of peace. But now….. everything is about to end?]
They would not accept it!
Unacceptable!
