A toast to the troops! All the troops…both sides!

I don’t know why but this has Lu Bu energy to it.
Can’t wait for the year 3000 when we get a Dynasty Warriors about this
Chiang Kai-shek the only one with a purple link.
A store clerk: appears to consult me on what to buy
Me: Man, can’t you see? I’m just browsing.
Also me: puts X down to take Y, but then puts Y and takes X, repeatedly
