Grand National Assembly Hall.
A covert meeting was underway.
Soldiers from the Direct Supreme Court guarded every entrance and exit meticulously, conducting checks on all entrants to ensure no electronic devices or dangerous items were brought in before allowing them to pass respectfully.
This was the highest-level meeting in the entire Great Xia, attended by either ministers of state affairs, grand commanders of military districts, or heads of various national departments.
Silence prevailed.
Ever since the elderly National Leader at the top spoke a single sentence, the entire hall had been silent.
"National Leader," a middle-aged man stood up, his expression peculiar, "Are you joking?"
"War with the Deity?"
"Deity?"
The serious atmosphere was broken, and a faint smile appeared on everyone's faces.
But.
When the elderly National Leader stood up, all laughter abruptly ceased.
There was no trace of a smile on the old man's face, only endless seriousness and calm.
"Everyone. I wish I were joking too.
But this time, unfortunately, our opponent is the Deity.
And we will go to war with the Deity!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the meeting was slightly stunned.
This old man would never joke here.
Which means...
"Is it really the Deity?"
A middle-aged man in military uniform rubbed his face.
"Everyone," Chen Yan, sitting next to the National Leader, stood up and said in a deep voice, "We now have ample evidence proving the existence of the Deity.
And it can be confirmed. In three months, the Descent of the Gods will occur!"
"Report!" The middle-aged man in military uniform who spoke earlier raised his hand, "I have a question. Why are we going to war with the Deity?"
The middle-aged man's words echoed the thoughts of countless people present.
Chen Yan adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, "It's not that we want to go to war with the Deity, but... the Deity intends to invade Great Xia!
In three months, the Descent of the Gods will occur, and then, there will be devastation!
This information has been confirmed, and now, this is war!"
With these words, everyone fell silent.
The old man scanned the crowd with his gaze and said solemnly, "Here, on behalf of Great Xia, I unilaterally declare war on the Deity!
Do you have any objections?"
With these words.
Everyone's expressions were taken aback!
War!
How long has it been since this word was mentioned?
From now on, Great Xia is once again facing war?
For a moment, everyone felt a sense of solemnity!
The middle-aged man who spoke earlier slowly stood up and said in a deep voice, "My Sichuan Military District will fully cooperate! War with the Deity!"
"My Jiangxi Military District will fully cooperate!"
"My Southern Shanghai Military District will fully cooperate!"
"My Ministry of Commerce will fully cooperate! We will ensure the supply of essential goods for the people!"
"I..."
Everyone clenched their fists and stood up.
War with the Deity!
Seeing this unexpectedly smooth meeting, the elderly National Leader's eyes were slightly moist.
Unity!
This is Great Xia!
Many people think that after nearly a century of peace, the people of Great Xia have lost their faith, lost the courage of their ancestors, and lost the bravery to die for their beliefs.
But they all forget.
Great Xia has always emerged from the flames of war!
A vast history of five thousand years, engulfed in war.
Eighty years ago, when the powerful bullied, the people of Great Xia used their blood to tell the world that Great Xia will never be enslaved!
It was true eighty years ago, and it remains true eighty years later!
Great Xia has never lacked the courage to fight, even if facing the Deity!
Faith has always been there!
For a moment, the elderly National Leader, along with many veteran generals and officials, couldn't help but recall those glorious years.
Although that group of people has left, these people are still moving forward.
"Good!" The elderly National Leader wiped the corner of his eye and said in a deep voice, "Here, I announce that from now on, Great Xia will conscript fifty million!"
"Fifty million!"
These two words left everyone slightly stunned.
This number is indeed too exaggerated.
But.
"My Sichuan Province can handle five million! No, six million!"
"My Shanxi Province can also handle six million!"
"My Tibet Province has fewer people, but... can handle three million!"
"My Jiangsu Province can handle five million!"
"My Ministry of Commerce may not be able to help much, but I'm willing to send my son over!"
For a moment, the various local commanders present made commitments.
In their eyes, there was no fear, no hesitation.
Nor were they intimidated by the number of fifty million!
Great Xia is a united nation.
When the country needs it, when the people need it, any problem must be solved!
There is no reason to refuse, no matter how difficult, a solution must be found.
This is the resilience of the people of Great Xia.
"National Leader, that's enough," Chen Yan looked at the National Leader helplessly and said in a low voice, "If they keep reporting like this, it will soon reach a hundred million..."
The National Leader smiled at the scene before him and said, "Alright, you can discuss these matters on your own when you return. Next, Great Xia will establish the Great Xia Supreme Command Center.
There will naturally be a Commander-in-Chief responsible for directing you."
With these words, everyone present was stunned.
"Commander-in-Chief?"
"Who is it?"
And at this moment.
On the high platform, a young man quickly walked to the National Leader's side and saluted everyone!
"Supreme Command Center, Commander-in-Chief Lin Fan, reporting to everyone!"

All television stations, social media, and portal websites in the Great Xia Nation interrupted with emergency news!

For a moment, whether online or in reality, everyone was abuzz with discussion.
"Oh my God, conscription of fifty million?"
"What is the Supreme Command Center, with such great power? Commanding the armed forces?"
"Is something big about to happen?"
"Oh my God, finally an expansion! No matter what, I'm going to join the army!"
"Yes, even if something happens, we must serve our country!"
"Joining the army has always been my dream! I'm going, I'm going!"
"What does Great Xia mean by this, are we going to reunify Xiadao by force?"
For a moment.
