"They are a brave bunch of lads, good. Charlie, take them to the back. When these Great Yu people land, let them experience the might of our British Redcoats!" Alden said happily, the eight thousand men slightly easing his nervous mind. As the British were organizing their counterattack, small boats were being lowered from the imperial warships at sea.

Master Eiffel, dragging his weary body, left the core energy chamber. When he returned to the main control hall, however, he found an uninvited guest. An elderly Mage, also wearing a gray Mage Robe but with an unnaturally pale complexion and a faint, elusive smile at the corner of his mouth, stood in the center of the hall, studying the flowing bands of light on the walls with great interest. The moment he saw this person, Master Eiffel's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly. "Chardonnet?" He…

The explosions outside grew more violent, spreading from the southwest to the south and southeast of Langcheng. The barrage raged from 6:00 AM until past 7:00 AM, with thunderous impacts still echoing periodically. Inside the bunker, the soldiers sat in the gloom, smoking. Before the war, very few of them knew how to smoke, but once the first shells fell, everyone learned fast. Thanks to yesterday’s scavenging run, most of them had a steady supply. In just one day, Langcheng had become a ghost…-

Hu Hao stood firm on his prediction: within two days, these survivors would be back on the front lines. The Regimental Commanders looked at him, searching for any sign of a joke. "What, you think they’ll let us sit this out? Two days, tops. Start getting your gear ready," Hu Hao warned. "But look at all the reinforcements," Li Jingsong countered. "The 25th Army is here, parts of the 28th have arrived, and two more armies are on the way. High Command ordered us to hold here for two months while the…

When Hu Hao heard Li Jingsong say he’d been promoted to Captain, he immediately started cursing. He had zero desire to fight a war. He had finally made it to this new world, a place that wasn't Earth, and he wanted to see what it had to offer. "You want to retire? Forget it!" Li Jingsong wasn't even annoyed by the cursing; he just looked at Hu Hao calmly. "Why is it impossible? Our national regulations state—" "Take a look at this," Li Jingsong interrupted, handing Hu Hao a notice. "An order…

Hu Hao and the others drove straight toward Langcheng. Everyone was exhausted after a day of frantic escape. Now that they were safe in their vehicles, many couldn't help but drift off to sleep. It was after 4:00 PM by the time they reached the outskirts of the city. There were numerous units stationed in the area and checkpoints everywhere. The guards were shocked to see the state of Hu Hao’s column, but after checking their credentials, they allowed them through. Langcheng's citizens were already…

Hu Hao and his group retreated from the bridge back into the city. Li Jingsong sat in a corner of the building they had commandeered for their vehicles, isolated and ignored. The soldiers wouldn't even look at him, but he had followed Hu Hao anyway. "Hao-ge, the Regimental Commanders want to see you," a soldier reported. Hu Hao turned to Huan Xingtao and the others. "Watch him. Make sure he doesn't wander off, and make sure nobody touches him." "Why, Hao-ge?" Huan Xingtao asked, his brow furrowed.…
