"They thought... with Charlie dead, we were no longer a threat to them." Sitting behind his desk, Councilman Williams spoke, a cigarette held between his fingers. He knew why those people had initially agreed to come to tonight's gathering. It was because everyone knew that Charlie had been caught. Charlie had been doing the Bay Area's dirty work for nearly forty years. He held too many secrets related to the Bay Area. The gentlemen of the Bay Area hadn't made a move on him before purely…-

Chen Wei poked his head out and looked at the trench, which was deeper than he was tall. Just as his battle-crazed soldiers were about to jump down, he suddenly made a stop gesture. Upon receiving the order, the soldiers immediately lay down in front of the first row of trenches, waiting for the next command. "Company Commander, why did we stop?" a squad leader asked, coming closer. Chen Wei looked at the crisscrossing trenches. He said, "These Dutch are acting too strangely. I'm worried it's a…-

When Hu Hao stepped into the holding room, a junior officer sitting near the door immediately jumped to his feet and saluted. The rest of the officers in the room quickly followed suit, and the few who had been sleeping were rapidly shaken awake by their neighbors. "At ease, everyone. Close the door," Hu Hao instructed his perimeter guards. The guards immediately pulled the heavy wooden doors shut. The windows of the holding room were already covered with thick blackout curtains. Operating within a…-

Having delegated the final cleanup operations to Ye Zifeng and Bo Gang, Hu Hao drove straight back to the 87th Division Headquarters in Bopa City. It was nearly 22:00 hours when his vehicle finally pulled through the main gates. "Hao-ge is back!" a passing staff officer yelled enthusiastically, spotting Hu Hao stepping out of the car. "Hao-ge!" "Hao-ge!" The perimeter guards and passing soldiers all smiled warmly and called out greetings. "Oh! You actually made it back tonight?" Li Jingsong…

Hu Hao, accompanied by his personal guard detail, walked slowly through the pulverized urban center of Santong County. The scene was nightmarish. The mangled, ash-covered bodies of thousands of Allied soldiers lay strewn across the rubble in grotesque postures. The vast majority of them had died with blood spilling from their mouths, a testament to the inescapable concussive overpressure of the subterranean blast. In the distance, sporadic gunfire echoed through the ruins as Ye Zifeng's infantry…

The newly commissioned officers stood outside the holding room, watching in stunned silence as convoy after convoy of heavy transport trucks rumbled past the command building toward the underground hospital. They knew they were being deployed to a combat zone, but seeing the sheer volume of casualties with their own eyes—truckload after truckload of bloodied, groaning men—was a deeply sobering shock. But what shocked them even more were the convoys that followed the ambulances. These trucks…

"If they hadn't marched into our cities and slaughtered our civilians like animals... I would never have resorted to a tactic this demonic. It is a profound violation of the natural order," Hu Hao stated quietly, his eyes cold as he watched the enemy die on the screens. "Hao-ge, what's the 'natural order'?" Bo Gang asked, entirely unfamiliar with the concept. "It's nothing. Forget I said it," Hu Hao shook his head, realizing the phrase from his past life didn't exist in the Eastern Spirit…

The time slowly pointed to seven o'clock. Councilman Williams looked at the slightly empty living room with a not-so-good expression on his face. James, Arthur, Lance, William, and a few other people did not even fill a tenth of this living room. When the grandfather clock struck seven "dings," everyone's eyes focused on Councilman Williams. Tonight, Councilman Williams himself had a gathering. With the mayoral election getting closer and closer, he definitely needed to put some effort into…

Charlie panted, looking at the person outside the car. He was wearing a ski mask, but even so, he could still "see" him through the person's eyes. This was a young man. There was not the slightest awe for life in his eyes, nor any confusion about the future. He just stood there calmly, then raised his pistol to do a simple thing. For some reason, when he saw this young man, Charlie seemed to see his former self in a daze. He was like a lost child, constantly spinning in an upward maze. Someone had…

After a day and a night of sailing, the warships led by Yue Yun arrived in the waters off Manila. Along the way, they did not encounter any attacks, and the voyage was very dull. But when they arrived in Manila, their spirits were immediately lifted. "The Dutch have actually built a trench position on the beach. It seems they are ready to fight us to the end." Through his binoculars, Liu Chen discovered Dutch soldiers moving around in the trenches. In addition to the Dutch, they also found…
