Flame Earth************

Cao Yan, a special forces soldier on the anti-terrorism battlefield in the Middle East, traveled back to the Stone Age in an explosion and became a dying boy "Ayan" in a primitive tribe. The world in front of them is far crueler than the battlefield: a small tribe of 23 people is struggling on the edge of starvation, eating raw carrion, surrounded by wild beasts, and it is difficult to save even the most basic fire. With modern military knowledge and survival skills, Cao Yan started to rewrite the fate of the tribe step by step, starting from making the first trap and roasting the first piece of meat. He taught the people to identify wild vegetables, polish stone tools, and bake pottery. He used the light of bronze and iron tools to dispel ignorance, and built a solid foundation with the wisdom of farming and animal husbandry. From caves to city-states, from tribes to empires, he formulated laws, unified writing, opened up trade routes, and forged loose primitive tribes into the "Flame Empire" across the continent. This is an epic of civilization: there are survival games beside the campfire, iron-blooded confrontations under the city walls, and a magnificent leap from slash-and-burn farming to the roar of iron tools. When the former special forces soldier stood at the top of the empire and looked back at the journey from 23 people to tens of millions of people, he knew that the fire of civilization had always started a prairie fire in desperate situations.
