CHAPTER 146: CHAPTER 125 IMMERSIVE ’MODERN HISTORY OF THE REPUBLIC’ (6.2K TWO-IN-ONE)_3

Shen Yan reacted to the so-called... integration of man and machine!

Boom——!!!

The sky filled with exploding flames, sweeping across Shen Yan’s vision.

The scene went dark.

When it lit up again, Shen Yan found himself in a bustling market, with vendor cries everywhere in his ears, a newsboy waving a newspaper:

"Extra! Extra!"

"Japan boasts of destroying China in three months!"

"Extra! Extra!"

"Japan...."

The scene gradually rose, showing a fleet flying Japanese flags off the coast.

Boom——!

Boom——!

Artillery fire constantly attacked the port, with people inside the city moving in panic.

At this moment.

A phantasmal flag suddenly flew into Shen Yan’s view, bearing the words Central Army.

"Brothers of the 88th Division!"

"..."

"..."

"Though our four hundred men showed the people! There’s still hope for China!"

The next second.

The scene switched to between the mountains, revealing the words [Sichuan Army].

All the soldiers traveled light, wearing cloth shoes, moving ceaselessly towards Shanghai. They didn’t know how far it was, but in Shen Yan’s overlooking view, it was a distance so far it was despairing.

"Brothers! We’ve had our rousing wine!"

"Little Japan boasts of destroying China in three months, three months?"

"What should we do?!"

The words fell, met with an earth-shattering shout:

"Kill! Kill! Kill!!!"

The scene switched to the [Northwest Army]

In the advancing ranks, filled with murderous aura, a general on horseback cursed while looking at the newspaper:

"How arrogant these Japanese devils are!"

"Destroy China in three months?"

"Back when I fought warlords with Feng Dashuai, what kind of situation haven’t I seen?"

"Three months? They won’t even reach Tongguan."

He shredded the newspaper in hand and ordered:

"Speed it up!"

The scene switched to the [Guangxi Army], in the rushing ranks, an officer looking at the newspaper.

"Damn it, these little Japanese...."

The scene switched to the [Hunan Army], several soldiers gathered at a dining table.

"The Japanese devils want to destroy China in three months? Our Hunan Army...."

The scene switched to the [Northeast Army].

"Damn it! Get your spirits up, 105th Division! Hold the line for me...."

Shen Yan’s eyes were awestruck, his perspective constantly shifting across the ’Republic’.

In the face of invasion.

At this moment, the entire Republic mobilized, countless soldiers heading towards the same place — ’Shanghai’.

The scene continued to flow across various regions.

Until finally, even the scattered soldiers of various [local armies] also rushed towards Shanghai.

The scene gently ended.

Shen Yan and the others returned to the room, still not recovered.

After a long time.

Qu Guang finally exhaled deeply, rubbing his temples, while Shen Yan finally understood why Zhao Ming said it wasn’t about the soldiers, but the entire nation.

In the face of invasion.

This nation from top to bottom.

The privileged became pioneers of revolution, ignorant people rushed towards foreigners with faith, traveling merchants attempted to save the country through industry, students of the nation’s future marched for reform, soldiers fearless of sacrifice died for their country.

Facing Japan’s invasion.

All the local forces across the land of China united to support ’Shanghai’.

No mandatory orders were given to them.

Yet they all held a common goal at the same time.

What kind of belief is this.

What kind of cohesion is this.

Shen Yan and others didn’t understand but were greatly shocked.

Because in the Federal era on Blue Star, there was simply no such patriotism.

This segment of CG data ended with countless Republican local forces charging towards the Songhu battlefield.

Though they could already roughly understand the situation.

But one still couldn’t help but delve deeper, to study the past of this nation, everything about this nation, what kind of experiences created such a nation.

The same scenes happened with various forces of the Great Xia Federation.

Wanting to continue watching.

But found there was no continuation, leaving the entire military of the Great Xia Federation scratching their heads.

You’ve got to be kidding me, it ended here???

[Emotion Value +35784]

[Emotion Value +24753]

[Emotion Value +37....]

...

Inside Polestar Company.

Zhao Ming looked at the incessant prompts popping up, nodding.

Then he muted them, continuing to bring up scene by scene on the projection of Earth, starting from the beginning of Huaxia all the way to after the Republic was established.

This was the complete CG data.

But it also required a lot of time to sort.

Soon.

A communication came from Shen Qinghan, likely the feedback from the Great Xia Federation had arrived.

Zhao Ming answered the call:

"What’s the feedback?"

Shen Qinghan replied:

"Very shocking."

Zhao Ming smiled, emotion values don’t lie.

Then Shen Qinghan said:

"However, while it solved a bit of the puzzle."

"It also made people more curious."

"I also experienced that CG version, the cohesion of this nation is indeed unimaginable."

"No wonder such Republic warriors were born."

"Is there a follow-up?"

Zhao Ming replied:

"Of course there is."

"To understand a nation, you must understand its history."

"As for the specifics...."

"It has to trace back thousands of years, perhaps starting from a river."

"The timeline is very long, so if the Great Xia Federation wants to see it, they’ll have to wait."

"Once I finish making it."

"I’ll let them watch the full version."

Shen Qinghan fell silent, somewhat in disbelief:

"Thousands of years?"

"This...."

It’s hard to imagine a nation existing for thousands of years. The history of these federations on Blue Star is only detailed for the last three hundred years, with most of the earlier records destroyed, Shen Qinghan finally spoke after a long pause:

"If made into a historical type, it might become very popular."
