Chapter 610: The prosperous Tang and the mighty Han are coming back!

Song Qi was stunned.

This was the most anticipated moment of the Sakura surrender ceremony! To put it bluntly, whoever signed their name on this surrender document would be remembered for eternity!

They would become a national hero in the hearts of all Dragon Nation people!

This honor could no longer be described by mere phrases like "bringing glory to one's ancestors"!

In the entire Dragon Nation, one might ask, what man could resist such a temptation...

Yet, the Grand General had yielded this opportunity to leave a mark in history to Song Qi!

At this moment, Song Qi's wide eyes were filled with confusion. Just as he was about to open his mouth to decline, a pair of warm, large hands quickly covered Song Qi's hands.

The Grand General's eyes were warm, looking at Song Qi with such gentleness, not saying a word, yet everything was understood without speech.

From the Grand General's eyes, Song Qi clearly felt a soul-stirring power.

The reason the Dragon Nation could endure through storms and stand proudly on the Blue Planet, and the reason the Dragon Nation people could stand among the nations of the world, was precisely because of this spirit of passing the torch.

Paving the way and building bridges for those who come after, clearing away all obstacles for the future generations.

This was the dream in the heart of every Dragon Nation sage.

The Grand General was no exception.

After a long while, Song Qi nodded gently.

"Alright, Grand General, I will sign this name..."

Having said that, Song Qi took a fountain pen from his pocket, slowly leaned over, and wrote his name on the surrender recipient line, one character at a time.

At this moment, the sunlight was just right, spilling onto the deck of the Dragon Nation carrier like golden afterglow, falling upon Song Qi and reflecting the leaning, signing Song Qi as if he were a towering deity...

This scene was simply too shocking, so much so that the reporters present were stunned on the spot.

After a long while, they reacted as if waking from a dream, hurriedly raising their long guns and short cannons to snap away at this scene!

Inside the livestream room, watching the scene of Song Qi signing, the Dragon Nation netizens were boiling over.

"Finally waited for this day! Little Sakura has finally surrendered. Where are the fireworks? Set them off for me..."

"Heaven bless my Dragon Nation, Heaven bless my Dragon Nation! Sending us an unparalleled national scholar like Engineer Song Qi!"

"What moves me the most is the Grand General. With his status, there would be absolutely no problem for him to sign this! But to avoid stealing Song Qi's credit, he actually gave up this opportunity to be remembered in history..."

"This is the most powerful part of us Dragon Nation people! Parents toward children, the nation toward the people, the sages toward the descendants—always harboring the purest love. This spirit of passing the torch is the root of why the Dragon Nation keeps falling into the abyss only to rise again and again!"

"..."

Soon, according to custom.

Both Sakura and the Dragon Nation exchanged surrender documents; the Sakura language version was kept by Sakura, while the Dragon Nation language version was handed into the hands of the Dragon Nation people.

The surrender ceremony was complete, and some minor details would naturally be followed up and handled by the diplomatic personnel of both sides.

Emperor Meiji looked at Song Qi before him with dim eyes; after a long while, he could not help but let out a long sigh.

The surrender ceremony was over, and Emperor Meiji naturally had no reason to stay and continue to be humiliated.

Soon, he stepped onto the armed helicopter returning to Sakura.

Sitting in the helicopter, the shadow of the Dragon Nation aircraft carrier grew smaller and smaller, soon becoming nothing more than a vague phantom in Emperor Meiji's eyes.

Until finally, this steel giant, which could be considered Sakura's nightmare, finally disappeared completely from Emperor Meiji's sight...

The next second, Emperor Meiji seemed to have drained all his spirit and energy, collapsing straight down in the armed helicopter and falling completely unconscious.

"Your Majesty the Emperor! Your Majesty the Emperor! What is wrong? You..."

"We subjects deserve to die..."

"..."

At the same time.

Within the Dragon Nation, gongs and drums were clamoring, and firecrackers were sounding in unison.

Although it was daytime, the fireworks had not stopped; from big cities to small villages, everyone's face was filled with joy, and the atmosphere was a hundred times more lively than the New Year.

The firework ban had been in effect in the Dragon Nation for a long time, but this time, the government did not stop the masses' revelry, instead tacitly allowing such behavior.

The Dragon Nation people usually carried too heavy a burden on their shoulders; everyone needed such a vent for nationwide celebration.

At the Jin Ling Massacre Memorial Hall, the white chrysanthemums sent by the public piled up over the entire monument.

Countless people stood before the monument, weeping silently to comfort the martyrs.

On the streets, one could see Dragon Nation men losing control of their emotions and sobbing uncontrollably everywhere.

The national destiny of the Dragon Nation was rising steadily.

The national self-confidence of the Dragon Nation people had already risen to an unprecedented height.

National pride and a sense of belonging had seen a qualitative leap compared to before this battle.

Only when a country is strong do the people have centripetal force and cohesion!

And when the people have cohesion, the country will only become stronger and stronger!

The rise of the Dragon Nation was already unstoppable!

The prosperous Tang and the mighty Han are coming back!

Blue Planet, tremble!
