Year 5910 in the Xia calendar, May
After preparing for several months, the big battle began.
Both sides were well-trained and well-equipped, with plenty of planes and cannons. They fiercely fought on three fronts.
Lin Jiang lived in Zhongjiang Province and received many reliable war reports daily, unlike the misleading ones in newspapers.
The Huaxia Federation focused its efforts on the eastern front to help the Zhou Liao United States recapture the old capital. Securing the old capital would protect Jingdu City from enemy airstrikes.
The Huaxia Federation’s three Tiger tanks led the attack, breaching the enemy’s defenses but soon faced tough resistance. The enemy used different tactics to counter heavy tanks.
The air forces on both sides suffered heavy losses, with planes being shot down quickly. Pilots, elite soldiers, required extensive training and were largely from noble families.
The loss of many pilots, elite soldiers who needed specialized training, dealt a severe blow to the noble class in the Huaxia Federation.
Newspapers often reported the deaths of noble family mbers in battles, bringing so positive effects to the struggling noble class.
"Let’s proceed according to this plan."
Lin Jiang learned about the latest situation on the battlefield and made his own plan.
With Lin Jiang’s current strength, he couldn’t change the course of the battle, but he could greatly help his people by giving them the best weapons, supplies, or avoiding dangerous missions. After all, only by staying alive could they be of any use.
War is too cruel. Not only Lin Jiang, but also other nobles, did the sa. So people might die, but usually they were from less important branches. The key figures mostly stayed in safe positions, unless there was an accident or a major defeat.
War is not fair.
After months of fighting, the Allied forces pushed the front line 500 kiloters forward. Lin Jiang could see trains carrying weapons, ammunition, and new recruits in Zhongjiang Province. They would later return from the front lines with wounded soldiers and death notifications.
By the end of October, the battle ended with the Allied forces failing. Over ten million Allied personnel were killed, captured, or missing, and they lost countless weapons and equipnt.
However, the Allied forces also suffered heavy losses, with seven to eight million casualties and a huge amount of weapons and ammunition used.
Due to heavy snowfall at the ti, the Allied forces were unable to encircle the retreating enemy, missing a great opportunity.
Zhou Liao reclaid the old capital of United States. Jingdu City of Huaxia Federation beca safe again, and talk of moving the capital disappeared without a trace.
In December, the navy of the Allies started clearing all the shipyards and docks in the coastal cities of the Allied countries, making it difficult for the submarine fleet of the Allies to rest and mostly destroying them.
From then on, the Allied countries started getting bombed by the Allies, with so industrial areas becoming the main targets, many industrial towns being bombed to the ground, and the balance of the war shifting in favor of the Allies.
Faced with this difficulty, the Allied countries went completely crazy, rallying more people to join the army with the slogan "Rather shattered than complete", and desperately boosting their forces.
Faced with this situation, the leaders of the Allied countries started discussing how to force the Allied countries to surrender.

"What had to co, has co."
In Zhongjiang Province, Lin Jiang sighed, he had already received news that a secret military factory in Zhongjiang Province had begun developing nuclear weapons, and so of Lin Jiang’s n were involved, although it was top secret information, Lin Jiang still received it.
"Sir, are these weapons really that scary?"
The secretary huddled in Lin Jiang’s arms, she still didn’t understand the terrifying aspects of these weapons.
"It’s very scary, this is the power of the devil, it can destroy humanity."
Lin Jiang nodded, all the knowledge and thinking habits he accepted were about the dangers of nuclear weapons, especially the radiation they bring. Lin Jiang didn’t know if his body could withstand it.
If nuclear weapons are used extensively, leading to a nuclear winter, then it’s all over. The world might have to start over.
"I have my husband, I’m not afraid of anything."
The secretary looked at Lin Jiang with admiration in her eyes. In her world, Lin Jiang is all-powerful and knows everything.
"Don’t worry, even if the world is destroyed, we’ll be the last ones to die."
Lin Jiang nodded, his fortress can ensure his safety. As long as there are no underground nuclear weapons, he is safe.
A month later, a secret military factory in Zhongjiang Province was attacked by special forces from the Allied Nations. Although they didn’t destroy the factory or have a big impact on nuclear weapons production, the news about nuclear weapons had leaked.
In just a few days, Lin Jiang received news that the Allied Nations were also manufacturing nuclear weapons. Knowledge is shared – what the Huaxia Federation knows, they also know.
Huaxia Federation was shocked and afraid. Many top officials saw nuclear weapons as a weapon of mutual destruction and didn’t want to die. So, they quickly took action. They sent agents to sabotage and ramped up research efforts with a lot of resources pouring in.
In April of the year 5911 in the Xia calendar, the Allied Nations began a spring counterattack, reclaiming lost territory and preparing for a second battlefield.
The second battlefield was in the far north of the continent, in a small country called Xial, once a Wilderness during the Immortal Era. Lin Jiang had never been there.
The troops on the second battlefield mainly ca from newly independent Allied Nations. Except for the soldiers being theirs, most commanders were from the Alliance Three Countries, having trained for a whole winter.
The counterattack progressed slowly. The Allied Nations fought fiercely, with soldiers’ morale high. After the First World War, due to unfair treaties, their lives were very difficult. Things like paying half a million of their own currency for a piece of bread were common.
Then their leader erged, leading them back to prosperity. No longer hungry or bullied, they were willing to fight for their leader.
The Allied forces continued to struggle on the front lines, while Huaxia Federation was slowly erging from the shadows of war. The enemy’s fleet no longer appeared on the Federation’s seas, and their aircraft were no longer seen in their skies.
Apart from families having loved ones on the front lines, most people’s lives seem to have returned to normal. They just need to go to work every day and produce a lot of weapons and ammunition.

"Sir, today’s Jingdu City Daily says that the Allied Nations have decided to hold a eting in Jingdu City of the Huaxia Federation in two months to discuss how to deal with the defeated countries after the war."
"The Yalta Conference?"
"Sir, what is the Yalta Conference?"
"Never mind, give it to to have a look."
Lin Jiang took the newspaper and read the content which was actually similar to the Yalta Conference, discussing how to control the world after the war and how to govern the defeated countries.
The eting hasn’t started yet, but they are already discussing the terms. For example, the previous terms only limited the military personnel of the defeated countries, but this ti they are considering military occupation, among other things. Thıs content belongs to ⓝovelFire
The most important thing is the post-war order. This big war involved almost all countries in the world. After the war, there must be an international organization to balance and regulate things, which is actually the United Nations.
How to divide the interests of the whole world, those federal lawmakers are very familiar with, can’t directly colonize, there are other ans, anyway, it won’t end up losing.
"The situation is settled, we also need to make changes, take the first step, and be faster step by step than others."
"Teacher, how can we make changes?"
"After the war, society must focus on developing the economy. Our main goal is to rebuild cities that were destroyed during the war, so engineers will have work to do."
"As the economy improves, food becos crucial. Large farms will continue to operate, and advancents in technology, including military technologies being used for civilian purposes, need to be developed."
Lin Jiang, feeling excited, remarked, "War has led to the developnt of various technologies that can be converted into wealth. Technologies like computers and biotechnology are enough to trigger a technological revolution."
The secretary beside him hurriedly noted down Lin Jiang’s words, puzzled as to why he was so thrilled. Was there really such a big opportunity?
In the 5,911th year of the Huaxia calendar, in September, a eting was held in Jingdu City where allied nations discussed post-war arrangents. Subsequently, major newspapers published the Jingdu City Agreent.
Three months later, there was a terrifying explosion heard from the sea surface 5,000 kiloters away from Haigang City. Hundreds of miles of ships witnessed a dazzling light resembling the sun.
