A roar beside my ear exploded like thunder, making my brain ache. “Li Paopao! Take one more step back and I’ll shoot you dead!”
The cold barrel of a gun pressed hard against the back of my head. I stiffly turned around
The combat officer’s twisted face, explosions blazing in the distance, severed limbs scattered across the ground…
The Battle of Shanghai?! Had I freaking become a deserter with the same name?!
The bolt clicked back. My mind went blank, and I blurted out, “I’m Li Yunlong, commander of the Independent Regiment. Who the hell dares touch me!” Then I thought, I’ve watched too much Bright Sword.
The entire camp of scattered troops fell dead silent. Even the shells seemed to forget to explode.
