CHAPTER 1217: CHAPTER 1217: AS EXPECTED BY ALL (3)

She is here, she’s come to negotiate, which means they won’t really be blown to pieces by her powerful army...

"Don’t be afraid, everyone. This time, we will resolve this crisis as soon as possible. Whether on the east bank or the west bank of the Chihe, we are all citizens of the same nation, and I will not abandon anyone..."

Huangfu Jue glanced to his side at Gan Yuan, who was trying hard to raise her voice, and frowned slightly.

He noticed a soldier on the roadside holding a loudspeaker, and he quickly opened the car door and jumped out with agility.

Due to the crowd around, the car was moving very slowly, so he naturally wasn’t hurt. The soldier hadn’t figured out what was happening, and the loudspeaker in his hand had already been taken by him.

Returning to the car side, Huangfu Jue deftly got back in and handed the loudspeaker to Gan Yuan.

"Use this!"

Gan Yuan took the loudspeaker, smiled at him, and then brought it to her mouth.

"I’ll say it again, you are all my people, and I will not give up on anyone!"

People followed her car all the way, more and more gathering, with many coming from other streets, like countless streams merging into a vast river, flowing with the traffic towards the city hall.

From a distance, Gan Yuan’s remaining black car seemed like the head of a giant dragon, and behind her were tens of thousands of Northwest citizens.

They held hands, carried children, supported the elderly... following her car like a flock of geese trailing the lead goose.

General Barton stood on the steps, watching the flow of people in the square, and couldn’t help but frown, "What’s going on?"

An assistant leaned in and spoke softly, "Gan Yuan is calling out to them, and these people are flooding in like crazy, the soldiers can’t stop them."

Barton frowned, "Stop them, absolutely do not let them enter the city hall."

To control the situation, he had deployed a force of ten thousand troops into the city, but compared to the millions of civilians in this city, these numbers were still too small. It’s only because of the soldiers’ guns that the civilians were being controlled.

If these civilians were really incited by Gan Yuan to rebel, the consequences would be extremely dire.

Before such a possibility could occur, he had to control the situation.

The assistant whispered a few commands to his subordinates, waved his hand, and the subordinates immediately led a team down the steps, pushing through the crowd towards the car where Gan Yuan and the others were.

They separated the car from the civilians.

Seeing soldiers approaching, General O’Leary, sitting in the front passenger seat, immediately pushed open the car door and got out first, sternly shouting.

"Stand down!"

The two soldiers hesitated and then stepped aside. He personally went over to open the car door for Gan Yuan, Huangfu Jue, and Abel seated in the back.

"Princess, Duke, please!"

Abel and Huangfu Jue got out of the car first, then carefully assisted Gan Yuan out.

"Princess, save us!"

"Princess, we beg you, please help us!"

...

All around, the civilians continued to loudly plead.

Gan Yuan surveyed the surroundings, eyes reflecting the hopeful gazes.

"I will, I will do my utmost, everyone please remain calm, I will now go in to negotiate with General Barton."

Handing the loudspeaker to Abel, she and Huangfu Jue stepped forward together, walking in the direction of the steps side by side.
