"Mantises attempting to stop a carriage—how utterly delusional!"
Deep within the estate of a great Roshian noble, the Shun Dynasty army trampled over a floor slick with gore and pooling blood. This was the last estate in the city where a nobleman had dared to mount a resistance. In truth, they had barely exerted any effort, much as an officer had disdainfully remarked earlier: "It's just mantises trying to stop a carriage; they overestimate their own strength."
Had they not been concerned about damaging the valuables inside the manor, the Shun soldiers would have simply called in artillery to clear a path, sending anyone foolish enough to stand in their way flying. While they didn't call in the cannons, they did put the Weaponry Bureau's latest product to the test: a man-portable rocket launcher—well, that is what the folks at the Weaponry Bureau called it.
