Chapter 199
Jian Shanhai knew he had to do something now.
He looked at the crowd below who were cheering and praising Lu Chen, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.
He understood that Lu Chen's brilliance was too dazzling at this moment.
If he did not take action, his status in the eyes of the residents of Jiancheng would probably plummet!
After several years, he could not imagine the scene where the people of Jiancheng only knew Lu Chen but did not know him, Jian Shanhai.
This is the base camp of the Jian family!
The Jian of Jiancheng is his, Jian Shanhai's, Jian!
He would never let Jiancheng become Lucheng!
He stepped onto the platform, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly:
"Fellow compatriots of Jiancheng! Today we successfully resisted the invasion of the flame tribe."
"This is a common victory for all of us in Jiancheng!"
"Brother Lu Chen's heroic performance is certainly worthy of our admiration and praise!"
"But!"
"Every one of us who fights on the battlefield and every one who sacrifices to protect Jiancheng is a hero!"
"You are also worthy of praise!"
"We in Jiancheng have always been united and face difficulties together."
"The victory of this battle is not only the credit of Lu Chen, but also the efforts of all of us!"
"We must remember this moment, remember our courage and unity, and make Jiancheng more prosperous in the future!"
Jian Shanhai's words were passionate and very inflammatory.
He tried to emphasize the power of the collective through such words, and at the same time wanted to reawaken people's attention and recognition of him.
Let his position in Jiancheng be consolidated, and not let Lu Chen's brilliance completely cover him.
However, he also knew in his heart that Lu Chen's achievements were indelible.
He needed to find a suitable way to become the symbol of Jiancheng with Lu Chen, rather than simply competing or suppressing him.
At this critical moment, he must make the right decision to maintain the influence of the Jian family in Jiancheng.
At the same time, he must not destroy the joy of victory and the atmosphere of unity that Jiancheng has just won.
"Lord Jian is so right!"
"We have protected Jiancheng together! We have shed blood and sweat for Jiancheng! We are all heroes!!"
"Lord Jian is even more ahead, rushing to the front line regardless of his own safety! It's so touching!"
"The Jian family has paid too much! I don't know how many people died! Even Lord Jian's brother, Jian Shanchuan, died in the mouth of the flame monster!"
"The Jian family is the soul of Jiancheng! It is the spiritual symbol of Jiancheng!"
The authorities are confused.
All the awakened people are immersed in the joy of victory, and they cheer for their survival.
Shout for this hard-won victory.
At this moment, they were completely unable to discern Jian Shanhai's intentions.
What's more, Jian Shanhai's younger brother Jian Shanchuan also died at the hands of the flame tribe.
Jian Shanhai was the first to charge into the center of the flame tribe like a brave lion.
They saw this with their own eyes!
Jian Shanhai did a great job on the surface!
They didn't see the scene where Lu Chen killed a group of demon kings.
But Jian Shanhai was in front of them, fighting side by side with them.
His unparalleled posture in the flame tribe was deeply imprinted in their minds!
This is the friendship of fighting side by side, which is more intuitive and more deeply rooted in people's hearts.
In fact, you will know if you think about it carefully.
If Lu Chen hadn't killed all the demon kings single-handedly, even if the awakeners of Jiancheng tried harder and fought harder, they would only end up with people dying and the city destroyed.
But now they can't think calmly at all.
Suddenly, Jian Shanhai's voice was choked:
"My brother, Jian Shanchuan...he..."
His voice trembled slightly, with deep sadness.
"He has taken on too much! When I was away, he worked hard to govern Jiancheng and spent all his energy for Jiancheng."
Jian Shanhai recalled the little things his brother had done for Jiancheng, and a tear flashed in his eyes.
"When the war came, he was even more concerned about the people and rushed to the front line!"
His words were full of admiration and nostalgia for his brother.
"In his heart, everyone in Jiancheng is his brother!"
Jian Shanhai raised his voice, as if to let everyone remember the greatness of Jian Shanchuan.
"He is a hero!"
"We, the Jian family, are proud of him!" He said loudly, with pride on his face.
"Protecting Jiancheng and protecting China is the ancestral motto of our Jian family!"
His voice was firm and powerful, making everyone present feel the sense of mission of the Jian family.
"If one day, China is in a crisis, I will risk my life to save everyone just like Jian Shanchuan did!!"
Jian ShanHai's words hit everyone's heart like a heavy hammer, and all the awakened people in Jiancheng burst into tears.
Some people couldn't help crying and choked:
"The Jian family has paid too much for Jiancheng!!"
They were deeply moved. They saw and remembered everything Jian Shanchuan did.
In peacetime, he worked for the welfare of Jiancheng and made the city prosperous and developed;
In wartime, he came to the front line without hesitation, attracted most of the pressure, and tried his best to protect Jiancheng and the people.
For Jian Shanchuan, they admired him from the bottom of their hearts.
Suddenly, a sad mood filled the entire battlefield.
Everyone was sad for the death of Jian Shanchuan, as if the joy of victory on the battlefield was also diluted by this sadness.
Jian Shanhai glanced at Lu Chen in the sky calmly, and then lowered his voice and said:
"If Brother Lu Chen could have come earlier... maybe Jian Shanchuan would have had a chance to survive..."
As he said this, he shook his head and interrupted himself:
"Alas, let's not talk about this!"
He seemed to realize that it was inappropriate to bring up such a topic at this time, and quickly changed his tone. "
Today is a day of victory!"
He shouted loudly, trying to reawaken everyone's joy.
"Let us always remember those who died in this war!"
He raised his hands high and called on everyone to remember the heroes who sacrificed for Jiancheng.
"Congratulations to Jiancheng!"
All the people were indignant, they temporarily put aside their sadness and were infected by Jian Shanhai's words.
"Congratulations to Jiancheng!"
They shouted in unison, and their voices resounded through the sky.
At this moment, the people of Jiancheng united together, they cheered for the victory, grieved for the heroes who passed away, and were full of hope and confidence for the future of Jiancheng.
However, Jian Shanhai's casual words and eyes seemed to have planted a subtle seed in the joy of victory.
Many people had a little doubt in their hearts.
What Jian Shanhai said made sense.
If...
Lu Chen came earlier.
Would Jian Shanchuan not have died?
