Features: This series of books is written in the genre of historical romance. This genre has a long history, originating from the folk "storytelling" during the Tang and Song dynasties and taking shape in the Ming and Qing dynasties. Looking at its development process, it is not difficult to see that ancient romances (taking Romance of the Three Kingdoms as an example) mostly used fictional, imaginative, and exaggerated techniques. The perspective, style, and scale chosen were determined by the author's individual creative thinking and imagination. In modern times (taking Romance of the Three Kingdoms as an example), the romance genre underwent changes compared to the ancient era. It was largely based on historical records and rarely deviated from historical facts. Due to the influence of the annalistic and dynastic history methods of official histories, modern romances rarely depicted important historical figures and common people in the social, economic, and cultural fields. Most of the content was used to introduce internal struggles, dynastic transitions, and even palace secrets. This book is a panoramic view of the grand Soviet War of Defense; a collection of timeless portraits of historical figures; and an exhilarating symphony of war. The days of life-or-death struggle lasted for 47 months, 1,410 days and nights, encompassing countless thrilling stories: the frenzied, leaving you speechless; the heroic, stirring your soul; the brutal, making your heart race; the poignant, bringing you tears. Politicians maneuvered with cunning, military strategists planned with wisdom, and soldiers fought on the battlefield. There were still many regrets for the victors, and a series of mysteries remained for the defeated.
