Chapter 1984: Chapter 2085: The Thrilling Military Parade

The most important reason for this failure was Wang Qian’s employment of Xiang Yu. She insisted on her decision despite everyone’s opposition, and now that the mission failed, she bears undeniable responsibility.

"Wolf Fang nurtured me, I cannot betray them," Wang Qian said with a determined look.

"No one asked you to betray, just to hide for a while. Once this period is over, you can reappear," Xiang Yu replied.

Xiang Yu felt guilty towards Wang Qian, so he wanted to help her as much as possible.

"No need, the mistake was mine, I’ll bear it alone," Wang Qian said as she walked forward.

People started to gather around them; they were in the stands, surrounded by many foreign friends.

Everyone was eagerly anticipating, discussing China’s development, and the atmosphere was very lively. Only Xiang Yu and Wang Qian sat quietly there.

Around half-past seven in the morning, China’s military began entering the venue. Their steps were uniform, their heights matched, and their marching was spectacular.

Some women couldn’t help yelling out with passion. Foreign tourists couldn’t restrain themselves and gave thumbs up.

Wang Qian was also attracted by the scene, she was half-open mouthed, unable to speak.

Wang Qian was a mid-level leader of Wolf Fang and considered well-informed. She had seen the military of Little Pakistan and the armed forces of Little Syria, and Wolf Fang had their own army, but compared to China’s army, they were like child’s play.

"Is this the standard for all Chinese soldiers?" Wang Qian couldn’t help but ask.

Xiang Yu sat there without speaking. If it weren’t for Commander Cao, and those missions, he would have been present today.

Everyone around was marveling at the quality of Chinese soldiers with thumbs up, but Xiang Yu knew that these people at the front had been carefully selected from China’s military.

If all soldiers were like this, China’s combat power would be invincible.

As preparations for the parade were ongoing, a group of people were engaged in a fierce competition on computers in an unknown military base.

However, ordinary people were oblivious to all this. They only saw China’s external strength.

By half-past eight in the morning, all military units were ready, and the honor guard played revolutionary songs in the center.

Volunteers performed their roles within designated areas, and everything appeared perfect.

At nine in the morning, China’s leaders, along with leaders of other countries, appeared on the podium.

The audience stood, raised the national flag, played the national anthem, followed by speeches. Then, China’s leader came down from the platform to greet the soldiers.

"Greetings, comrades!"

"Hello, commander!"

"Comrades, thank you for your hard work!"

"Serve the people!"

The shouts were earth-shattering, the momentum was overwhelming. At this moment, Xiang Yu’s heart was burning, how much he wished to be among them.

Sitting in the stands, he had the urge to shout.

After greeting the army, navy, and air force, the leader returned to the platform by car, announcing the official start of the parade.

The orderly marching, uniform pace, all showcased the power of China’s army. At this moment, all Chinese people worldwide were watching, at this moment, all Chinese were proud.

Because of the country’s strength, they could stand confidently on other lands and say, "I am Chinese."

Because of the country’s strength, they had more confidence to pursue their dreams.

"I love China, as a Chinese, I feel proud."

This sentiment was deeply rooted in every Chinese person.

The air force flew by with colorful flags, performing different maneuvers behind them.

In this parade, China showcased many advanced weapons, surprising many countries.

China had always been low-key, rarely displaying its strength, but in this parade, they showed unprecedented power.

Xiang Yu’s eyes were red; China was his motherland, he too felt proud.

Having spent so many years abroad, although he seldom expressed his emotions, his love for the motherland was something few could understand.

Wang Qian quietly looked at Xiang Yu and said, "Your feelings for China run deep, I should have realized."

"That’s right, China is my motherland, and I won’t allow anyone to harm her," Xiang Yu said firmly.

"But now, they doubt you too," Wang Qian said.

Xiang Yu remained silent. Although he had excellently completed the task assigned by No. 1, No. 1 no longer trusted him.

If Xiang Yu hadn’t escaped quickly at the hotel, he would have been caught.

Seeing Xiang Yu silent, Wang Qian sneered, "What country, patriotism, these are just your illusions. As long as you threaten their security, they will mercilessly eliminate you."

Wang Qian was also from China, but she felt no affection for China. In her heart, China was no different from other countries.

Now Wang Qian felt a stronger sense of belonging to Wolf Fang, and everything she did was for the benefit of Wolf Fang.

"Let’s go," she said.

Just as the parade was about to end, Xiang Yu turned and headed out through the crowd.

With everyone’s attention on the parade, it was the safest time for them to leave.

Many soldiers around were still immersed in the glory and prosperity of the motherland, so they didn’t notice the two quietly leaving.

Outside, Xiang Yu and Wang Qian caught a cab heading to the outskirts of the capital.

Away from the capital, they would be completely safe, even though road checks remained strict, most only allowed exit, not entry.

By the time Xiang Yu and Wang Qian left the capital, it was already two in the afternoon, the parade had ended.

The entire ceremony went smoothly, only a brief disturbance occurred during the leader’s speech.

But the disturbance was quickly subdued. In that environment, anyone causing trouble would be strongly suppressed.

The parade could be considered perfect, the entire process was smooth, without any major disruptions, which was inseparable from the country’s long-term preparations.

Xiang Yu was just a small part, China surely sent many forces to maintain the parade’s stability.

Other countries also witnessed China’s strength, resulting in many countries agreeing on the spot to establish cooperative relations with China.

Even countries that hadn’t previously established diplomatic relations with China sent congratulatory messages, expressing their intent to visit soon and hoping China would not refuse.

This parade not only showcased China’s power but also sent a message to the world: the Eastern lion has awakened...
