Mix half of ginger, 60ml dark soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon Five-Spice Powder in a medium bowl. Add wings; toss to coat. Cover and chill at least 1 hour and up to 8 hours.

Heat oil in a wok or large deep-sided skillet over medium-high. Add shallot, spring onions, garlic, chilli, and remaining ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add rock sugar, star anise, licorice root (if using), cassia, white pepper (if using), Sichuan peppercorns, and remaining 1 teaspoon Five-Spice Powder and stir to combine. Pour in low-sodium soy sauce, remaining 60ml dark soy sauce, and 240ml water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low.

Lift chicken wings out of marinade; discard marinade. Add wings to wok and pour wine over. Stir gently, then bring to a simmer. Cover and cook over medium-low 15 minutes. Gently stir, then cover again and continue cooking until chicken is cooked through and a deep brown colour, about 15 minutes longer. Using a spider or slotted spoon, transfer wings to a plate.

Pour liquid in wok through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl; discard solids. Return strained liquid to wok and bring to a simmer over medium-high. Cook until sauce thickly coats a spoon, 10–12 minutes. Return chicken wings to sauce and toss to coat. Using a spider or slotted spoon, transfer to a platter. Serve with cucumbers if using.
