Although the mainstream drinks of this era were yellow wine and rice wine, and the Western Regions preferred grape wine, fruit wine, and mare milk wine. Facts had proven that strong spirits also had a huge market demand in this era.

After the forward observers returned and sent back news that the Gallic infantry had begun to advance, Morin also accompanied the soldiers of the 1st Company to the outermost defense line of the city. He then realized he had slightly underestimated the Gallic ‘Mademoiselle 75.’ Looking at a two-story building that had half collapsed, he couldn't help but sigh that the 15-minute bombardment was more powerful than he had imagined. Although the houses in Charleroi City were mostly stone and brick,…-

General Jean-Clément Fournier, commander of the Gallic Army’s Ninth Infantry Division, rode on a tall warhorse, advancing with his Division Headquarters. When the sound of gunfire erupted from the south of the city, his face was etched with confusion.

"Fight first, then negotiate for peace?" The samurai all exclaimed in unison. Yamada Nobunaga picked up the clear tea from the low table and took a sip. Savoring the elegant fragrance of the tea, after a long while, he explained, "If we don't fight and then seek peace, the other daimyo will surely accuse me of cowardice. But if we fight and lose, they will have nothing to say. At that time, they will be able to clearly see the disparity in strength between Japan and the Great Yu Empire. Of course, if…

The Cassia family was also very powerful in Yalan. Any wealthy person could rally a large group of people to follow them in Yalan, whether it was for legitimate business, mining, or other things.

A drop of rain, prepared, fell from the clouds with the help of gravity. It plunged towards the ground from high above with indomitable courage, its mission to create a small splash in a shallow puddle on the ground. The gray, gloomy clouds had nurtured it, so it too was gray and gloomy. After it had passed through an unknown number of meters, the silhouette of the city appeared before it. Is this the city? The halo of colorful neon lights spreading through the misty city was a beauty it had…

During this time, he watched the blue unit tokens representing the Ludendorff Battle Group and the Second Army Group moving and fighting slowly but surely across the map.

Morin was pondering, his fingers already beginning to carefully rub every detail of the Cuirass. The progress bar in the tab slowly climbed, and simultaneously, a series of detailed data surfaced in his mind. Similar to the chest armor from the Napoleonic era he remembered, this set of equipment was composed of two steel plates, front and back. The steel plates were about 3 millimeters thick, each piece weighing a solid 7.5 kilograms. The front and back plates were connected by leather copper-scale…

The Instruction Assault Battalion had suffered over one hundred and ten casualties after the capture of Liège Fortress, the surprise attack on Charleroi, and the brief but fierce cavalry engagement. Excluding those with minor injuries who could still fight, the actual combat reduction was already close to one-tenth of the unit. Morin knew clearly that compared to the bloody battle they were about to face, the previous engagements were, at best, mere ‘appetizers.’ General Ludendorff’s order was…
