Chapter 330: Chapter 176: [Republic] Major Events Timeline (7.2k Double Release) (Part 2)
[Hidden plot: (The Tiger Hall Incident).]
Looking at this introduction, Yu Feng and Blue Star viewers in the live stream were somewhat speechless:
"Goodness, a 27-year-old Commander."
"I couldn’t even choose such an outrageous background at the start of a game; this is totally hacked, right?"
"And...."
"This event has hidden plotlines."
"I wonder how to trigger them."
"National unification is.... uh, spoke too soon."
Yu Feng was about to mention national unification, but then his eyes shifted to the next event.
[Central Plains War]
He clicked on the introduction, and an info box popped up.
[Though changing flags achieved nominal national unification, regional warlords like Feng Yuxiang (Northwest Army), Yan Xishan (Shanxi Faction), Li Zongren (Guangxi Faction), among others, still controlled regional military and political power, creating a "segmented hinterlands" situation.]
[Ultimately, in April 1930, this escalated into a chaotic war between warlords with both sides mobilizing over a million troops.]
Yu Feng looked at the introduction and started to speak:
"Goodness gracious."
"A warlord chaos, so many warlords involved; must’ve taken quite a while to fight?"
However, his gaze moved to the next event.
[Armed Mediation]
After clicking on it, Yu Feng realized that what he just said was premature again....
The introduction read.
[On September 18, 1930, Zhang Xueliang, commander-in-chief of the Northeast Army, issued a nationwide announcement, with the Feng Army crossing into borders, and 100,000 Northeast Army troops heading south to militarily mediate the Central Plains War.]
[Facing threats from both sides, warlords Yan Xishan, Feng Yuxiang, and others successively issued announcements stepping down (resigned and retired), achieving national unification in a more formal way.]
Previously it was nominal unification, and this time it’s formal unification.
With that said, it might be a bit easier from here on?
After all, both nominally and formally unified, but soon Yu Feng looked at the long axis following this timeline, with a peculiar expression.
"How many major events are there?"
Looking at the timeline, Yu Feng clicked and dragged it.
The timeline quickly moved through.
[The September 18th Incident][The Long March][Four Crossings of the Chishui River][Xi’an Incident][July 7th Incident][Battle of Songhu]....[Hundred Regiments Offensive]... all the way to [Japan’s Surrender].
And right after that is [Comprehensive Civil War].
Seeing this, Yu Feng finally familiarized himself a bit and immediately noticed the [Battle of Menglianggu] following a few events after [Comprehensive Civil War].
Yu Feng clicked it, and a prompt popped up.
[Battle of Menglianggu]
[This is a crucial battle in the Republic’s liberation war, hailed as....]
[....]
[....]
[Unlocked: Open CGI, open plot experience, click to obtain exclusive experience code.]
The introduction was exactly the notification that appeared when ending the plot just now, but compared to others, this one showed as unlocked, likely due to his playing of this plot.
So is it shared progress?
Yu Feng clicked and then a login prompt popped up, he logged into his account, then the experience code was sent to Yu Feng’s info.
Looking at the introduction, Yu Feng nodded and said:
"For those wanting to experience the plot of [Battle of Menglianggu], you can claim it, just log in to your account."
"Because it’s exclusive and bound, you won’t need to worry about the experience code being stolen, not that stealing it makes sense, everyone can claim it."
Yu Feng opened the CGI, and the CGI began playing.
The scene that appeared made Yu Feng and Fang Ming’s eyes light up, as the perspective dropped from high altitude, the camera slid forward, dropping to the end.
At the end of the team, their faces appeared.
The players were included in the CGI?!
Hiss—
That’s just.... too awesome!
CGI wasn’t as lengthy as a plot, it was a series of image slices combined together, but it included scenes of the two, which made quite a few water friends in the live stream envious.
How nice if it were oneself.
While Yu Feng and Fang Ming had their assistant in the live stream directly forward it to the homepage.
At this moment the CGI was still playing, and as it ended.
At the end, it gave the complete map of that time, and now viewers in the live stream clearly saw the entire layout of the [Battle of Menglianggu].
Compared with the annotations by Yu Feng and Fang Ming.
This time they saw more clearly all surrounding units, and the attack routes, Yu Feng said:
"Wound up like this, no wonder the plot ended so quickly."
"Probably after we finished here, the total offensive had already started over there, difficult to fly out even with wings."
Yu Feng finished speaking, looking at the timeline behind.
To this point.
The timeline already transformed into various battles densely packed together.
It includes battles like [Advancing into Dabieshan][Autumn Offensive][Battle of East Henan] and more.
However, what intrigued Yu Feng and Blue Star viewers in the live stream the most.
Were those three separate vertical boxes.
They were [Liaoshen Campaign][Huaihai Campaign][Pingjin Campaign].
The Polestar Official Website had given them separate vertical boxes, indicating the significance of these three campaigns, Yu Feng clicked [Liaoshen Campaign].
What popped out was an explanation, and below the introduction, there was an unlocked event plot.
Yu Feng looked at the introduction.
[Liaoshen Campaign (September 12—November 2, 1948) is the first of the three major campaigns in the liberation war.]
[The Northeast Field Army concentrated superior forces to capture Jinzhou, cutting the enemy’s retreat, and then surrounded and annihilated the Liao Yaoxiang Corps, liberating Changchun and Shenyang.]
[This campaign annihilated more than 470,000 enemy troops, liberated the entire Northeastern region, laid the strategic foundation for nationwide victory, becoming a crucial turning point in the Republic’s revolutionary war history.]
