Chapter 294: A Few Families Are Happy and a Few Are Sad


December 25, 1916, 2757 AD Whether it was because the Germans were not well prepared and did not launch an attack, or because William II wanted the frontline officers and soldiers to have a good holiday, or for some other reason, the Hans who landed spent Christmas Eve happily and did not go out at all.

Cause trouble to the frightened Taurus.

But even if the Germans didn't move, the British couldn't calm down.

Dover is only a few dozen kilometers away from London.

It can be said that it is arriving at dawn and dusk, and the British are not so nervous.

But the majestic British Empire will not be so cowardly.

The Erdezi just occupied Dover and drove them to the sea.

It is no big deal, but they must save London first.

As a result, the British government frantically mobilized all troops to reinforce London, worked hard to build fortifications, and mobilized all London citizens to arm themselves to defend London.

King George V personally delivered a speech on the radio, claiming that the British Empire was at its most dangerous moment and asked all British citizens to fulfill their duties.

As the largest empire on earth, the sun never sets, the British are also very high-spirited at this time, and this little blow is not enough to demoralize them.

After the King of England's speech, all Londoners were mobilized, and many people spontaneously participated in the work of building defense lines.

The British government also opened its weapons arsenal and distributed a large number of weapons to the people.

The people of London were angry.

The majestic British Empire was actually invaded, or by a small country like Er Dezi.

It was really unbearable.

Everyone took up arms and angrily fucked the Germans.

However, although their morale is high and their confidence is high, there is too little time left for them.

Moreover, there are not many building materials stored in London.

It is not an easy task to build fortifications on frozen land.

At 8 o'clock London time on the 25th, the German army, after a night's rest, officially launched an attack on London.

The experience of coercing the world for hundreds of years, and the history of not being attacked by outsiders for eight hundred years, greatly reduced the vigilance of the British.

Before this, they had never thought that their homeland would be invaded.

There are not many ready-made fortifications near London, and even those forts are antiques from centuries ago.

And just two days were not enough for them to build many fortifications.

As a result, they are now paying the price for their paralysis.

Under the attack of German aircraft and artillery, the German army made rapid progress.

Those antique-like fortifications did not bring much hindrance to them.

By three o'clock in the afternoon, the German army had broken through London's outer defense lines of Maidstone and Chatham. , the German vanguard was less than thirty kilometers away from London, and they could even see Big Ben, the bell tower of Westminster Abbey.

The whole world was stunned by the German actions.

The global public opinion is in an uproar, and everyone feels that their three views have been subverted.

Of course, it is more of a pleasure to watch the fire from the other side.

For most people, when they see a normally aloof and arrogant overlord suddenly fall into the clouds, they feel a sense of schadenfreude.

For people who have been bullied by this overlord and are filled with anger, this sour feeling will increase exponentially.

The vast majority of people on earth have said: “Damn it, Niu Niu, you’re here too” "I made you awesome, I made you noble and cool, now you're like a fool, wow kaka kaka" “It’s the happiest thing I’ve heard this year.”

Well, pretty much the same thing.

Except of course the British themselves, who are now going crazy.

Hanking First Public Hospital.

Just when the whole world's attention was attracted by the "Battle of London", the Chinese people had no time to care about the troubles in Europe.

Their attention was attracted by this hospital.

Reporters from various government agencies, the military, enterprises and institutions, civil society organizations and major media have surrounded the hospital since last night.

The square outside the hospital was crowded with spontaneously organized people, including not only residents of the capital, but also many people who came from other places.

These people all looked at the hospital with nervous and expectant eyes.

At this time, Wen Desi, who was in the hospital conference room, looked at the crowd outside and sighed in embarrassment and said: "Hey, I really don't understand.

What does it have to do with my wife giving birth to a child?

Look at their expressions.

What's going on?"

She seems more nervous than me."

"Tradition, tradition, this is our country's traditional customs.

If you grew up abroad, you may not understand the importance that Chinese people attach to the inheritance of their heirs.

Their reaction is normal."

Yuan Shikai said with a smile.

In today's China, there are only a few people who can call Wen Desi "brother" in person.

Wen Desi said somewhat depressedly: "Even if I take it seriously, it's still my private matter.

Is it worth traveling all the way to see what's good about the newborn?"

Tao Chengzhang smiled and said: "Hahahaha, Xinghai, this kind of thing is a private matter for other people, but you are the head of state, so it is different.

The people care about this matter, which shows what the people want."

Wen Desi himself also knew that if you want to tell the Chinese people of this era, "I am not the emperor, and my son is not the prince, so you don't need to be so nervous", it is all nonsense.

It is so easy to follow thousands of years of customs. changed.

Not to mention ordinary people, even the senior officials of the Socialist Party and the government were also very nervous.

Before Gu Xiaolu was admitted to the hospital, Datou asked his wives to come over to help.

Today, most of the top officials from the central government are gathered in this conference room.

Besides, there is nothing wrong with things like personality worship as long as it is not done intentionally.

Many of the so-called "oppositions to the cult of personality" are nothing more than sour grapes.

What's wrong with being loved by others?

Does it mean that everyone has to be indifferent to it, or even hate it, to be a qualified ruler?

At this time, three taxis with the "Hongyun" logo printed on the doors stopped next to the hospital square.

A big fat man squeezed out of the car with sweat on his head.

He looked at the still quiet crowd in the square and paused for a moment.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

The driver also got out of the car and said to him: "Boss, look, Mrs.

Gu hasn't given birth yet.

Otherwise she wouldn't be so quiet."

Shen Wenlong quickly ordered the people who got on and off the other cars: "Well, it's okay, okay, Xiao Liu, Xiao Wang, quickly, take out the gifts, Jia Laosan, and bring the incense candles."

Fatty Shen came over by airship from Guangzhou overnight.

His Hongyun Company also has a branch in Hanking that specializes in taxis.

Before he got on the airship, he immediately made a long-distance call to inform the branch office to send a car to pick him up at the airport.

He rushed over as soon as he got off the airship, and there was no delay.

There were too many people near the square.

Shen Wenlong and others were struggling to move through the crowd carrying large and small bags.

"My mother, have everyone from Hanking come here?"

Shen Wenlong was already sweating in a few minutes and couldn't help complaining.

He was unhappy, and there were people next to him who were even more unhappy.

A man in a suit said dissatisfiedly: "Fat man, why are you squeezing?

Didn't you see that there are people here?

What if you bump into an old man or a child while carrying such a big bag?

If you want to see a doctor?"

Just take the side door or the back door, there’s no one there.”

Shen Minlong's fat face immediately filled with a smile: "Haha, brother, I'm sorry.

I'm not here to see a doctor.

I came from Guangzhou specifically to congratulate Mr.

Wen on the birth of his son."

When the man heard this, his expression became better: "You are not the only one who came to congratulate me.

Look here and there.

I think you can't squeeze in like this.

Just wait here."

Vice Premier Yuan just told everyone that as soon as there is news, the hospital will send someone to announce it."

Shen Wenlong looked at the crowd in front of them that was packed like a sardine can, then estimated his size, and gave up the plan of squeezing to the front.

At this time, a policeman came over, looked at them, and said, "Hey, why are you still carrying incense and candles?

There are regulations here.

You can't light these things.

It will affect the patients in the hospital."

He also knew what these people were doing. , and added: "It's also very bad for mothers and newborns."

"Okay, okay, no, no, no," Shen Wenlong agreed quickly.

After he stopped where he was, he started chatting with the people next to him.

"Hey, tell me, is the president's wife giving birth to a little boy or a little girl this time?"

"Of course it's best to have twins."

"Tch, this answer is too cunning."

"Didn't Mr.

Wen himself say that giving birth to a son or a daughter is the same?

I think they are pretty much the same."

"You have two children and you are saying this, but now Mr.

Wen is the first, and the eldest son is different."

"You have an old concept.

Even a little princess is not bad.

Mrs.

Gu is still young anyway, and the other ladies have not made any move."

Shen Minlong couldn't help but said: "Mr.

Wen is so wise, of course he is the little prince."

At that moment, a person who looked like a college student raised a question: "Sir, what does having children have to do with being wise or not?"

Shen Wenlong rolled his eyes at him and said confidently: "Why doesn't it matter?

You are also a scholar.

King Zhou Wen knows, right?

He was a saint.

He gave birth to a hundred sons.

Mr.

Wen is no worse than him.

Of course he gave birth to sons."

As soon as these words came out, the man immediately knelt down.

A bunch of people around him had expressions like "What he said made sense, but I was speechless."

Everyone was talking about the new baby.

About half an hour later, there was still no movement from the hospital.

Everyone was a little anxious and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.

"Jia Laosan, is this hospital's technology good?"

Shen Wenlong couldn't help but ask the branch manager.

"Boss, this is the best hospital in Hanking," Jia Laosan replied quickly.

Because there were too many central government officials waiting in the hospital today, and there were too many onlookers outside the door.

For safety reasons, the front door is closed, and those who want to see a doctor or do errands have to use the side door or the back door.

Just when everyone was losing their composure, the originally closed main door of the hospital opened.

A middle-aged man in a white coat walked out with a happy face.

"Oh, that's Dean Liu coming out.

There should be news," someone who knew him said immediately.

Dean Liu picked up a microphone and said to everyone: "Dear citizens and compatriots, I am the president of this hospital, and now I have a piece of good news to announce to you.

Our president's wife gave birth successfully ten minutes ago."

As he said that, he seemed to There was a deliberate pause.

"Is it a son or a daughter?"

Someone couldn't help shouting immediately.

"Ahem."

Dean Liu held his eyes, cleared his throat and said, "He is a young master, weighing eight pounds and sixty taels.

He is a healthy, fat boy, and his mother and son are safe."

"Oh!"

Cheers like a roaring tsunami suddenly sounded in the square.

"Hahahaha, it turned out to be the little prince, so I said, okay?"

Fatty Shen's face was shaking with excitement, and he shouted to the people around him: "I said yes, it turned out to be the little prince, hahahaha " At this time, the man in a suit next to him who spoke to him first suddenly shouted: "To celebrate Mr.

Wen's birth of a son, all customers who come to my Hetian Hotel today will have free drinks."

With that, he said to Shen Wenlong He smiled and said: "Let's go, fat man, to my hotel.

You won't come back until you're drunk.

I'm happy to see your magpie mouth.

I'm treating you today.

If you don't go, you won't give me face."

When Shen Wenlong heard this, he quickly said to Jia Laosan next to him: "Quick, go and inform the Guangzhou head office that everyone who rides today will be free of charge."

In the ward.

Wen Desi looked at the baby on the bed with an unstoppable smile on his face.

"Xiao Lu, thank you for your hard work."

Wen Desi held Gu Xiaolu's hand tightly and said sincerely.

Although with the medical technology and equipment of the 23rd century, it is basically impossible to have any accidents when giving birth, it is impossible to say that you are not nervous.

Now he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine.

I just hope the baby is safe."

Gu Xiaolu was still very weak.

She looked at the baby next to her with motherly eyes and a happy smile on her face.

"Oh, hubby, what's the child's name?"

"Oh, I haven't decided yet.

I've thought of a lot of names, but I don't know which one to use," Wen Desi said with a confused look on his face.

Yuan Shikai smiled and said: "Xinghai, there is no need to worry about the famous name.

Just pick it slowly.

Use the nickname first."

"The nickname is okay, it's okay.

Anyway, the household registration will be registered within a week.

I'll think about it slowly in the past few days."

Wen Desi nodded and said, "My nickname is that this year is the Year of the Dragon, so let's call it Dragon."

"Okay, okay, this nickname is so loud and catchy."

Everyone said yes.

While the British were fighting bloody battles to defend London, China was celebrating nationwide, and people from all over the country spontaneously organized various celebration activities.

What is even more unexpected is that there were some old and young people who were not very willing to become Chinese in the new territories of Korea, Ryukyu and Vietnam.

After the news of Wen Desi's son was born, they all stopped and even Changed course.

For a period of time afterwards, officials in the President's Office were worried about a large number of gifts, but the government and the military abided by the regulations and only sent congratulatory messages without giving gifts.

But this regulation cannot restrict the people.

Many non-governmental organizations and individuals have sent congratulatory gifts.

Although they also know the rules and do not send anything too expensive, most of them are local specialties and traditional folk gifts, but they cannot bear too many gifts.

The officials in the office went crazy when they saw the gifts that had filled more than a dozen warehouses and were still being added
