This is an indescribable world.
Gunpowder was prepared, but when ignited, it produced pixels.
Boiling water produces steam, yet it cannot even lift the pot lid.
Are the sun, moon,...
On June 15th, a meeting was held.
Just as the first rays of sunlight hit Dawn City's tallest watchtower, the city finally opened its inner city gates. Many people without permission to enter crowded around the entrance, eager to peek inside, eager to get a glimpse of what the conference hall, capable of accommodating all the heads of state, would look like. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, gathering all these heads of state together was difficult, and preventing them from fighting upon meeting was even more difficult, which placed extremely high demands on the architectural design.
The historians from various countries did not have to crowd together at the gate with the guards and the construction workers who had just retired. Qinghe had designated a separate area for them so that they could witness with their own eyes the historic moment when the head of state entered the inner city.
Yes, it is just to witness the situation of entering the inner city. According to the meeting procedures issued by Qinghe, the first day is a closed-door meeting of the heads of state of various countries. Except for the Qinghe guards who are responsible for on-site security, other forces are only allowed to enter the heads of state themselves.
As for whether the content of the meeting that day will be made public, Qinghe's side said: When the time is right, we will make it public after obtaining authorization from at least two-thirds of all heads of state.
To put it simply, no one knows what they said when they went in, and the authenticity of the content they released later cannot be verified.
In response, historians from various countries, including Dong Mao, protested, but their demands were still not met.
As Lin Hai said to Dong Mao: You certainly have the freedom to protest, but we also have the freedom to decide whether to agree to your demands...so I choose not to agree.
But surprisingly, no leader raised even a single objection to the idea of attending the meeting without guards. But that was understandable, considering everyone was already here. If Lin Hai and Xia Junao had truly harbored ill intentions, they could have been manipulated into any number of situations, whether or not they did this.
Of course, if they really didn't want to come, the armies of Daliang and Qinghe would personally invite them. After all, Lin Hai had said before the meeting that all the leaders of any influential faction in the world must attend the meeting.
The translation of this sentence means that if you really don't want to come, I will just kick you out, so that we can still achieve the achievement of "everyone is here".
After the heads of state's convoys passed through the huge square at the inner city gate, the inner city gate was closed heavily. Guarding the inner city wall were mixed guards from Qinghe, Daliang, Chen Dynasty and Xia Kingdom. They would guard their heads of state during the meeting. Of course, they could only guard on the inner city wall.
The order they received was actually very simple, which was to prevent anyone from entering the inner city without authorization. Of course, if an accident happened, they could not go downstairs and could only sound an alarm through bells and beacons.
This could be considered the final concession made by Lin Hai and Xia Junao in order to quell the voices of doubt. Although everyone knew that if something big really happened, the greatest use of this group of guards would be to make the funerals of those heads of state more magnificent - at least there would be something to bury with them.
The real defenders of Dawn City are the Qinghe First Army and the Liang Kingdom Royal Guards deployed outside the city, as well as the Qinghe Royal Guards led by Cheng Guorong in the inner city.
Many of the heads of state who entered the inner city directly lifted the curtains of the carriages, trying to see with their own eyes what this legendary inner city looked like. After all, it had to accommodate twenty-five heads of state. How luxurious was this inner city, which was said to have been built with the efforts of Qinghe and Liang Kingdom and fully supported by the Chen Dynasty's treasury?
Obviously, they were disappointed.
Although it was the inner city, what came into their sight was more like a huge square.
The square itself was quite ordinary, simply paved with Qinghe cement. Surrounding the square were Qinghe soldiers in heavy armor and armed with powerful crossbows, and the flags or totems of various nations. After all, many tribes didn't even have national flags...
Standing in the middle of the square is the only building in the inner city - a square house, which is also made of cement. It is quite large. Judging by the naked eye, the height alone is about three meters, and the length and width are ten meters each... The facade of the house is covered with the new tiles recently launched by Qinghe, so it does not look simple. However, there is a square cement box covered with white tiles in the white Dawn City, which looks weird no matter how you look at it.
At least normal people really cannot connect such a building with the conference of heads of state of the world.
The main door of the house was fully opened, but what came into view was a screen wall, which made it impossible to see the details inside from the outside. Although it was a bit strange to have a screen wall indoors, the effect was surprisingly good. At least it was more shielding than a folding screen. Of course, this might have a lot to do with Qinghe not being able to find such a large screen at the moment.
There should be a plaque right above the gate. There seem to be words on the plaque, but no one can see them clearly. After all, the plaque is covered by a banner that reads "Warm congratulations on the successful convening of the first mainland heads of state conference."
Lin Hai, Shi Zhen'er, and a group of Qinghe civil and military officials stood at the door. Behind them, on either side, stood Xia Jun'ao and the Fourth Prince of the Chen Dynasty—no, now, the Supreme Emperor of the Great Chen Dynasty, His Majesty Chen Xu. Further away, the crowd was clearly divided into two groups. Xin Yuetu was trying to find common ground with Wei Mingyuan, while a large group of chieftains and chieftains, though unconsciously standing together, seemed quite at a loss.
"Well, it's pretty good. You are worthy of being my twenty-sixth brother."
Lin Hai nodded to Shi Ming, which made Shi Ming feel a little embarrassed.
"I say, Xiao Linzi, what's the point of building this house? It can't even be called a palace."
