This lowered both technical barriers and R&D costs for manufacturers.
In truth, Fang Jianxiong was in a foul mood. Two girls, ripe for the picking, refused to stay over, worried about their reputation. Qi Erzhu, at this moment, was gambling with him—he could have throttled him, if only in thought.
The snow was littered with battered, twisted Soviet military equipment—both German-made and Soviet-produced. Charred frames of houses smoked, the air thick with the acrid scent of burning. Through the haze and dense clouds, faint sunlight illuminated the aftermath of this recent bitter battle.
