Anti-War Game: Starting from Normandy Campaign
Chapter 31 Blue of the Republic (Caught Alive....)

Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Blue of the Republic (Caught Alive....)

After Zhao Ming released the game update.

He prepared to see how the Northern Federation managed to play through. He opened the game’s backend and pulled up the data of passing teams.

Then, following the data check...

Zhao Ming’s eyes widened:

"Huh?"

The densely packed starting data was completely different from what he imagined.

He thought it was a heavenly army descending.

But it turned out... they died more times than normal players.

However, with each death, there was some progress.

From standing firm for over six minutes at the beginning, gradually increasing to twenty minutes, lasting until air support arrived, then the victory data came in.

Looking again at the impressive aura in the video.

Well, this guy cares about face too.

But with the Northern Army’s endorsement, it’s an opportunity for some publicity.

Zhao Ming logged into the Federation Headline account, and the account already gained over a million followers in the afternoon, though most came to scold Zhao Ming, but he didn’t care about that, and directly tagged the Northern Army’s official account:

"@Northern Army, I didn’t expect someone could beat the game, truly worthy of Great Xia Federation’s Northern elite. With such an army guarding, it truly is the happiness of the Great Xia Federation citizens~"

"Additionally, everyone should interact more with NPCs. I believe some players have already discovered that each NPC is an independent individual with different stories. Interacting more might even trigger hidden plots~"

Of course.

To prevent players from breaking defenses after triggering hidden plots and coming to scold him.

Zhao Ming looked at the over a million black followers and set comments to mutual following only.

Then he followed the Northern Army, done!

Post!

Thanks to the Northern Army’s endorsement, "World War II: Empire’s Rise" continued to climb in popularity, even alerting other military regions. Soon, the East, West, South and North zones fought overnight, quickly bringing other teams onto the leaderboard.

——

Great Xia Federation, North.

Songgel Tundra.

The brilliant aurora hung in the sky.

This is the border between Great Xia Federation and Slavic Energy Federation, and stationed here is the Great Xia Federation’s Northern Third Armored Army Group, under which there are five armored divisions and nine brigade units, with the main task of defending against the Slavic Energy Federation from the North.

At this moment.

Seventh Special Operations Brigade.

Looking at the trending headlines, Brigade Commander Shen Yan couldn’t stop smiling.

Because the video online was the work of their special operations brigade.

Originally just a request from his niece Shen Qinghan for publicity.

He intended to check the game before deciding to help, since they were official and couldn’t speak casually.

Unexpectedly, the game turned out to be quite interesting.

The brutal and realistic battlefield environment, not knowing how many times it took to get through, no wonder Qinghan was adamant he’d definitely help, this game was just too good.

The training effect is already beyond astonishing.

Usually dragged into icy fields for exercise, yet not letting these boys yell miserably, but after playing a whole afternoon, they all died till they lost their temper. The real battlefield simulation really put these boys in their place.

Why hadn’t anyone made something this real and brutal before?!

If it came out earlier, wouldn’t it have been great?

Especially seeing the newly updated real-time leaderboard, it’s so wonderful!!!

Seeing other teams across different areas appear on the board but haven’t surpassed them yet, Shen Yan’s smile never stopped, instructing his subordinates:

"Extra rations, extra rations!"

"Banquet tonight, eat well and drink up, replenish energy and keep practicing."

"Other military regions have already started chasing."

"Don’t let them catch up!"

Especially when some of them are teams of old comrades from military school.

Shen Yan decided to make a call to reconnect with old classmates since they hadn’t contacted for so long.

Suddenly became first in all of Great Xia Federation, you see...

At this moment.

Shen Yan’s phone rang, seeing it was Shen Qinghan calling, he immediately picked up:

"Hello, Qinghan."

"Hahaha, no need to thank me, I should be thanking you."

"This game is really good."

"It’s greatly beneficial for training, and has a realistic battlefield environment."

"It will definitely be popularized throughout the army, this time you’re going to be famous, the old man will definitely be delighted."

"What? It’s not your work, isn’t it your company?"

"Oh... co-owned huh."

"No matter, anyway you own shares, it’s a flash on the face this time too."

"Hey, by the way."

"Does the game have any tougher instances, Normandy isn’t enough for us."

"What do you mean by dead tired, who said so?!"

"Ahem... records in the backend, not talking about that, ask about the instance."

"Right, want tougher instances so I can properly train these boys."

After the call ended, Shen Yan’s smile did not diminish.

Looking at the disconnected phone, he opened the contacts, searching for old comrades:

"Hello? Old Wu."

"What? Can’t call if it’s nothing?"

"We’re old classmates, isn’t it right to connect for emotion."

"By the way."

"Has your brigade played that ’World War II: Empire’s Rise’?"

"Anything unclear, ask me."

"I just looked at the leaderboard and happened to see you’re at fifty-something, thought I’d call and ask about you guys....."

Before Shen Yan finished speaking, a roar came from the other end of the phone:

"Accidentally, your uncle!"

"Fifty-something is already on the second page, accidentally your ***!"

"Get lost!!!"

"I’ll surpass you tomorrow!!!"

With a slam! The phone was hung up, Shen Yan shook his head in dismay:

"Tsk... what kind of person is that?"

"Turning hostile after a few words."

"Let’s see who else..... Hello? Old Xu...."

——

On another side.

Polestar Game Company.

Already late at night.

The company was off duty, and all other employees had gone home.

Zhao Ming stayed at the company.

The house and things could be sold off by the original self, after making the game it’s been living at the company, Zhao Ming just came and didn’t have time to fix up, continuing the routine of sleeping at the company.

Zhao Ming sat in front of the computer, reviewing the trending topics and game reviews.

Only one day.

Successfully overwhelming other games, topping the popularity list, even attracting many foreign players using different languages in comments, this game seemed to be creating quite a splash in other federations too.

At this point.

Zhao Ming’s phone rang, he glanced at the caller, slightly surprised:

"Calling so late, what’s up?"

Zhao Ming picked up the phone and asked:

"Any instructions, senior?"

Shen Qinghan’s voice was heard:

"I previously heard you say there will be additional instances open later."

"Do you remember the exclusive instances like Chishui, Changjin Lake, Republic ones you mentioned?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ming replied:

"Correct."

"Four Crossings of the Chishui River, Battle of Changjin Lake, Blue of the Republic (Blue Army, full... tactical nuke strike)"

"Besides, there are some exclusive instances, but no time to create them yet."

"Some are beyond the World War II timeline, with more advanced tactics, these instances are not open to the public."
