Synopsis

After the invading Japanese army destroys his family, a young man joins the army and leaves Sichuan with his little sister to fight in the war. He takes part in the Battle of Shanghai, the Battle of Wuhan, and the Battle of Changsha, then joins the first expedition to Burma. Wounded and discharged, he begins a legendary journey of resistance in Beiping. The novel features characters and settings from War Meridian, Wolf Smoke Over Beiping, New World, and the drama My Chief and My Regiment. The protagonist is a native of his time, not a soul from the future. At first, all he wants is to protect his little sister; then he fights to protect his family, and finally his comrades. As he slowly uncovers the atrocities committed against Chinese soldiers and civilians by the invading Japanese army’s biological warfare unit, he transforms into an avenger. Leading prisoners of war rescued from concentration camps, he will relentlessly hunt down every demonic unit in the invading Japanese army and pass judgment on all Japanese war criminals.
