395 The New Technology in Modern Warfare

November 5th, 1821. At the Port of Piraeus. General Theodoros Kolokotronis was overseeing the unloading of the wooden crates from the Victory Class merchant ships of the French Empire. His eyes landed on one of the conspicuous boxes that was too big and wide. He wondered what's inside of it.

He approached it with his aide and the moment they arrived, they were stopped by one of the French officers overseeing the operation. The French officer Jacques Lauriston stood in their path, a stern expression on his face.

General Theodoros Kolokotronis scanned the box and asked. 

"Sir Lauriston, I can't help but be curious about what's inside that box. Is it a weapon?"
