Synopsis

From 1937 to 1938, a sky screen appeared all over the world, continuously showing the history of World War II.

Many people in Longguo, who had been deeply pessimistic about the war, were utterly shocked to see their country rank among the Big Four.

By contrast, the people of Faguo, who had been brimming with confidence before the war, watched in disbelief as their country was swiftly defeated, and wept bitterly.

During the Hongwu era, Zhu Yuanzhang was asked how many years after Qin Shi Huang's death Xianyang was conquered. Confidently, he chose the fourth year, privately mocking Qin Shi Huang a little.

But the next question left him stunned: in what year after the death of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was the Ming capital, Jinling, conquered?

In late 1949, MacArthur stared in shock at the news that Longguo had defeated him in the Korean War.

Events from all periods of history were being shown, including World War II, the Cold War, the Korean War, the Space Race, the Middle East wars, the Vietnam War, and even the Eagle Sauce kill line and Epstein's Little St. James Island.

I can only give it four stars. The writing is indeed quite good, and the content is also very humorous. It's a pity that it keeps rehashing old ideas and trying to make them more interesting. It would be better if it could have more originality.

Focus on writing the World War II story well; the ancient history can come later. The author has a solid foundation in history. It's just that Italy has too little plot. It should have had a storyline, but it's just constant attacks, then they just give up and eat some pasta to calm their nerves 🤭.

It's really good. It's the first time I've seen a book about modern and contemporary history. I've never read this type of book before; I always read about ancient times or domestic history. I really love reading about foreign history.

I really didn't expect this to exist. Finally, it's not some ancient person anymore; the ancients had too many flaws. It's not that I dislike the ancients' approach to examining wood, it's just that there were too many ancient people who examined scraped wood.

The subject matter is very novel; I highly recommend watching World War II Sky Show. You should watch it soon, as this subject matter might get banned at any time. Suppress the ratings, or they'll disappear. This was added later; the book is ruined and has been banned.

Goodbye, author! It's a difficult decision, but I hope we'll meet again someday. Some unexpected things happened that really affected and hurt me, so I'm saying goodbye formally. I'm truly going to miss you all; it was so great to know you. I stumbled upon your book a few days ago and it felt like a treasure.

I think the narrative style of this book is quite good. I hope they can incorporate some reader feedback, such as various alternate world lines, the celestial projection, and the reactions of world leaders. Anyway, I would recommend this book.

Four stars. It's really well written and stands out among other reviews. Most of the reviews focus on Europe, the United States, and the Soviet Union, with very few reviews on other countries. Ancient history is basically negligible. If you like modern history, you might want to give it a try.

It's really good! This book is incredibly resilient, and the author is truly admirable for revising it so many times. 🤦🤦🤦
