France, 1934. The scars of the Great War still shape the military minds of the Third Republic. Trapped in the past, its generals place their faith in fortifications and defensive warfare, while across the Rhine, a new German army rises, faster, deadlier, and ready to crush everything in its path. Into this world awakens Captain Étienne Moreau, a man who should not exist. He remembers another life, one where France falls in 1940, where German tanks storm through the Ardennes, bypassing the Maginot Line. One where his country surrenders in a matter of weeks. But here, now, he has a chance to stop it. As an officer in the 2nd Armored Division, he fights for reforms: pushing for mobile tank warfare, warning of Hitler’s growing ambitions, and challenging the high command’s obsession with World War I tactics. Yet, his ideas are dismissed as radical, madness from a young officer who "thinks he knows war." Surrounded by political intrigue, military infighting, and rising fascism, Moreau must carefully navigate the system, winning allies among future leaders like Charles de Gaulle, while avoiding suspicion from the French High Command. His knowledge is a double-edged sword, if he is too aggressive, he risks being labeled a traitor. If he does nothing, he will live to see France burn. As war draws closer, Moreau faces a terrifying question: Can history be changed? Or is France doomed to fall, no matter what he does? Time is running out. The Blitzkrieg is coming. And he may be France’s last chance to fight back. -------------- For Extra Support (If you want to) https://www.paypal.me/Clausmic 200 Power Stone - 1 Bonus Chapter Gift from 500 till 1000 Coin - 1 Bonus Chapter Gift from 1000 till 2000 coins - 2 Bonus Chapter Castle Gifting - 4 Bonus Chapter Beyond that - 8 Bonus Chapter.

[Completed] He is the esteemed prince of DK, and even more so, a wolf of unbounded power and dominance! She clumsily ended up living at his place, and accidentally 'slayed' him in sleep. She tried to skip out without paying the price, but he arrogantly declared, "The women who sleep with me and don't take responsibility can only face two outcomes: death, or becoming my princess. Which do you choose?" She would rather run as far as she could from him, but he wouldn't let her! Before their marriage, he clung to her daily, causing a global scandal with their romance.

I won't have it!" "Your protest is invalid!" Loving her, protecting her and spoiling her, it is the addiction he can't quit in this life!
