Dressed in a Zhongshan suit, with his hair slicked back and sporting a pair of round glasses, Zhang Shixiong looked somewhat scholarly, which was completely different from his usual image as a military leader clad in military attire.
Standing in front of the podium, Zhang Shixiong appeared calm and forceful as he spoke forcefully, "…Ten billion compatriots should now be awake. Our nation has always been in the dire straits of warlord conflicts and industrial decline. The great powers oppress our nation, crudely plundering the sweat and ingenuity of our people's labor. Now, the Qikun Nation has breached our borders and is ready to invade the inland at any moment. Thirty million compatriots have already fallen. If we do not roar in anger and take up arms now, are we really waiting for our nation to perish, to become kneeling slaves? We, the people of Eastern Land, will never agree!"
