Morin sighed and sat up from the bed. He thought it was a manor servant or perhaps a bold lady who hadn't gotten what she wanted at the banquet. Rubbing his slightly stiff face and putting on his polite smile again, Morin got up, walked to the door, and opened it, ready to send the visitor away with the most courteous words.

Unknowingly, fine snowflakes fluttered down from the sky onto the earth. Looking up at the gray sky, Xiao Ming was filled with a sense of emotion.

This son will keep it in mind," Xiao Ming said, comforting Concubine Zhen's worried…-

Time quickly reached past 10 PM. At this time, in Hu Hao's command center, most of the staff officers had gone to rest. Only a few staff officers on duty and Hu Hao remained. Hu Hao stood by the observation port, watching the situation on the opposite bank. The night was quiet, terrifyingly quiet. There was no movement at all on either side of the river, not even the chirping of insects. It was very oppressive, yet the starry sky above was clearly visible, the stars still twinkling. "Heavens, what…-

By the afternoon, the frontline positions were empty. Around noon, the Allied forces had raised a white flag, requesting a ceasefire to treat their wounded. The soldiers on the ground immediately reported this up the chain of command. Hu Hao’s response was a blunt: "No, we don't want any living Allied soldiers!" The soldiers below warned those holding the white flag to turn back. Both Hu Hao and his men understood clearly that this was a fight to the death. Furthermore, considering the Allied forces'…

After leaving the Zhengda Guangming Hall, Fei Ji wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Although Fei Tong was exiled, and Fei Pei and Fei Yuhe might also be punished, at least he had clarified his relationship with Fei Pei in advance. So, in court, he was only reprimanded by Xiao Ming, and his official position was not shaken. To him, this was a blessing in his misfortune. He could see that this incident was orchestrated by Xiao Ming from beginning to end, with the purpose of "killing the chicken to…

About half an hour later, the sedan slowly drove into the gate of a manor. The scale of the manor wasn't particularly grand, but everywhere revealed an understated exquisiteness, clearly showing the owner's extraordinary taste. As soon as the car stopped, a butler in a tailcoat with meticulously combed hair came forward and respectfully opened the door for him. "Good evening, Lieutenant Colonel Morin. Welcome." The butler's voice was gentle and polite. "Good evening." Morin nodded, somewhat…

"...Alright, let's play golf together sometime." Senator Cleveland hung up the phone, a look of impatience on his face. Although they were all senators, not all senators were exactly the same. For example, there was a difference between majority and minority party senators, between core senators in a political clique and those on the fringes, and between committee members and executive committee members. These were all different. They were all senators in Congress, but could you say their…

Hu Hao ordered the troops to continue the attack. They bombarded every area the infantry guns could reach. Meanwhile, on the opposite bank, corpses littered the ground. Hu Hao's assault inflicted heavy casualties on the Allied forces. No one expected his troops to use incendiary bombs.

But they never imagined that the Eastern Spirit…

Hu Hao was still feeling smug when Mo Qin suddenly rebuked him. Completely caught off guard, he froze in astonishment. However, Sun Bin, a senior staff officer who had fought his way out of Tianyu Province alongside Hu Hao, wasn't going to let it slide. He immediately charged forward, grabbed Mo Qin by the collar, and slammed him against the wall next to the observation port. Seeing this, Wang Yao and the others were about to rush over too. Hearing the commotion, the other staff officers in the…
