   Reader note

   The content is fantastic. Most post-apocalyptic stories involve government collapse and the protagonist's struggle to unify the faction. This book, however, is completely different. The government suffers heavy losses, but it doesn't mean it disappears. The large army's fighting power remains, meaning the system won't collapse; it's just a matter of time. We need to keep fighting, for there are many sacrifices to achieve great things! Moreover, the entire content leans towards the "red" (political) theme. You might ask what's so interesting about a "red" theme? I would say that's where the author's brilliance lies. It's similar to disaster relief or a roundabout way of saving the country. When you suffer, don't forget that you still have your motherland and a strong support system to protect you.
