Lin Yu, a young man from the countryside with a burning dream of military life, resolutely joined the armed forces. When he first entered the army, grueling training and strict discipline put him through the wringer, but he gritted his teeth and persevered with sheer determination. Under the careful guidance of his squad leader, Zhao Gang, he distinguished himself in a military skills competition and gradually found his footing in the army.
While carrying out a mission at the border, Lin Yu was injured and met Jiang Xiaoxuan, a military doctor. Feelings quietly blossomed between them. However, military discipline forced them to keep their relationship buried in their hearts. Soon afterward, they faced a perilous counterterrorism mission, and Lin Yu was seriously wounded protecting his comrades.
With delicate prose, this book vividly portrays Lin Yu’s transformation from a callow recruit into a courageous soldier, offering a sweeping view of the passion and intensity of military life for soldiers today. It tells of both unyielding strength and tender romance, capturing a soldier’s boundless loyalty and sense of responsibility toward the nation and its people.
