General Who Guards the West: The Border Was Only at Peace After I Died

“They asked me, ‘Xiao Jin, you killed your benefactor, admitted to colluding with the enemy, and gathered up the bodies of your wife and children. Do you regret it?’

In this game of strategy, I am both the sacrificed piece and the one moving the pieces.”
