The story moves at a fairly slow pace early on. If you're in a hurry, you can start with the second major arc. The pace gradually picks up after the first. Some characters and locations have been fictionalized, so please don't take them as representations of real people or places.
On his way home during leave, officer Du Xiaohao is in a car accident and transmigrates into the body of Pierre Billotte in 1930. His arrival, however, changes the course of history in this timeline. Faced with the turbulent Europe of the 1930s and 1940s, Billotte struggles to choose between war and peace. He joins forces with de Gaulle to overthrow the old government, enacts a series of military and economic reforms at home, and supports Spain's Republican government abroad. He drives German forces out of the Rhineland, stirs up trouble everywhere during the Winter War in Northern Europe, stations troops in the minor allied nation of Salabia to deter the Soviet Union, and redirects the danger elsewhere...
“I play this game better than any of you! I take appeasement to its absolute peak, leaving everyone else fifty years behind.”
In just fifteen years, he will dominate the European continent and become the only man in French history to surpass Bonaparte.
(No golden finger, System, or other cheats in this book. If that bothers you, please don't read.)
There are a lot of real materials. It can be seen that the author's historical level is very high, and at least he did it carefully. I will give you five stars.
The writing is very good and the plot is perfect [Love]
A rare French military theme, unfortunately not my taste, but five stars
The themes are novel. There are many that travel to other countries, but not many that travel to France.
The novel is quite good, but I don't know why so few people have read it.
