Sijabrdo (Shining Hill), Maršalgrad
Withering away ones will to stand up straight, hands to his side, facing directly a mighty wind front, accompanied by a grim chill from its weather variables - and the sight of marble monoliths which made men look like pieces on a board from a most dangerous game. Wind chills effected bare skin on a molecular level, felt first as an overcoming splash of ice, until each molecule found its related pain receptors to jab at like a punching bag. Each gust was far more akin to a haymaker, attempting to convince its victims to succumb to the elements immediately by seeking shelter.
An old officer can freeze in the same way his young soldiers do, though he can rarely die in identical circumstances. Vjekoslav wished to perish as his men would on the battlefield, impossible now, in his current form. The Union knew him as as Maršal Pijan; elected Chairman of the Blue Union Captaincy of Životinje. As the supreme executive power in peacetime, and supreme general of the military during conflict, Vjekoslav pictured his demise as victim of a penetrating 'bunker busting' missile from an airborne fighter belonging to one of the Unions many rivals. He planned for this moment adamantly, specifically by stocking every bunker with enough alcohol and tobacco products to last him and his staff for an entire Živ winter.
One click of his heel unto Sijabrdo's stone platform cued a Cadet to call the Union to attention, full brigades of armed soldiers obeyed the command by willingly freezing their bodies for as long as each individual male or female type soldier could, for soon unintentional jitters and shakes overcame the soldiers who were doing their very best to warm themselves mentally, while physically they had been ordered to cease all movement.
Vjekoslav observed the uncontrolled shaking of his men, so he made his trip to the podium microphone expedient, with a rushed "Stand easy", an order which relieved his troops immediately. Video transmissions of this event would be shown across the world, an event that would look strikingly similar to ones in every other Slavic nation, Communist or otherwise. Maršal Pijan was attempting to portray the Union Blues as a 'practical power', one who casts iron aesthetics aside, or those portrayed by their Communist rivals who insisted on airing images of their soldiers rigid as stone during a cold winters day.
On that same token, the Maršal begun his Address to the Union - "The gravity of the situation which confronts the world today necessitates my appearance before a our victorious Blue Union, to our neighbors in Międzymorze, and worldwide in every stronghold of democracy, which we as Union Zivs enjoy. I of course speak of foreign policy, an a subsequent security threat to our nation from a Crimson Communist Collective of Cronies.
We must consider recent acts of socialist funded terrorists against free men worldwide as a catalyst to our approaching actions as armed free men."
Three Infantrymen, who each firmly held a flag from the three Union Captaincies, with attached rifles at the head of the flag poles, fired off a round to highlight this point.
"This Union insists that another hour of Communist rule over any sovereign state, is another dire hour of suffering to the potential of the human race. It is imperative if we are to survive as a free nation, that we take actions to defend ourselves not only economically as we have already, but diplomatically alongside our neutral partners in global freedom. This I think is a matter our Union cannot wish to turn a deaf ear to.
As a result of tragic conditions, a militant minority, exploiting human want and misery, the Communist Cronies of Europe have been able to cultivate oppressive states and terrorist splinter groups in every land which calls itself free.
The very existence of our Captaincies and Union is today threatened by the terrorist activities of several thousand armed men, led by Communists, who defy the government's authority at a number of points, particularly along the northern boundaries. A Commission appointed by the Plavi-Divocian security Council is at present investigating disturbed conditions in northern Sangemuntenia by an infestation of Communist symphathizers.
There is no other country to which the free men and women of Europe can turn but the victorious Blue Union."
Pursing his lips and squinting so he could see the faces of those farthest away in the crowd, Maršal Pijan sought out reactions from this statement, that Životinje was alone in its persecution of this Crimson Menace.
"No other nation is willing and able to provide the necessary support for democracy and the virtues of a Free Market in the way we have and will continue to.
We have considered how the Council of Nations might assist in this crisis. But it is obvious that this organization too has been infiltrated by Cronies of the Terror movements who are native to Communist countries.
No government is perfect. One of the chief virtues of a democracy, however, is that its defects are always visible and under democratic processes can be pointed out and corrected. In our opposing Communist States, a veil is placed over the peoples eyes, blinding them from the corrupt oppression of their Governing parties.
That integrity which we as Military Men preach is essential to the preservation of order in a free democratic Europe.
We are not the only country able to provide help to the victims of socialism, but we are the only nation willing to challenge the purveyors of freedom.
One of the primary objectives of the foreign policy of the Union is the creation of conditions in which we and other nations will be able to work out a way of life free from coercion. Our victory for Independence was won over a country which sought to impose their will, and their way of life, upon other ourselves and other nations. Its system has changed, its face has changed, but its color has not - Red is and always has been the color of oppression to these sacred lands.
To ensure the peaceful development of nations, free from coercion, the Union has proposed that a Committee Against Communism (CAC) is forged by the Slavic States to preserve freedom and independence for all its members. At the present moment in world history nearly every nation must choose between alternative ways of life. The choice is too often not a free one.
One way of life is based upon the will of the majority, and is distinguished by free institutions, representative government, free elections, guarantees of individual liberty, freedom of speech and religion, and freedom from political oppression.
The second way of life is based upon the will of a minority forcibly imposed upon the majority. It relies upon terror and oppression, a controlled press and radio; fixed elections, and the suppression of personal freedoms.
I believe that it must be the policy of the Blue Union to support free peoples who are resisting attempted subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures. I believe that we must assist free peoples to work out their own destinies in their own way. I believe that our help should be primarily through economic and financial aid which is essential to economic stability and orderly political processes. And, I believe we must take immediate and resolute action.
This is a serious course upon which we embark. A torch passed on to us against our will, though a task we must undertake none the less as a member of the international community who still believes in the preservation of Civil Liberties."
His Union would be obliged to obey this call of primal nature, to stand together as individuals against an enemy who convinces its soldiers that they are equal an without essential differences which make a man unique. Now, and until a side would give up, the Zivs would be obliged to obey under a Blue Flag in order to preserve the orders of liberty asserted in 1818, by the Revolution that bore this Blue Union.
