[History] [Qing Dynasty] [Growth of Soldiers] [War] [Warlords] [Struggle for Hegemony]
In 1898, at the end of the Qing Dynasty, poor farmer Zhao Yuanshan joined the Beiyang New Army compiled and trained by Yuan Shikai to treat his father's illness.
From the rigorous training of the German instructors to the cruel battlefield, he grew into a sharpshooter, but was injured and comatose in the second battle, dreaming of his modern life experience a hundred years later.
After waking up, he not only became literate by accident, but also retained modern knowledge and thinking in his mind.
He began to question why he was fighting: for pay? Because of Yuan Shikai's ambition? Or for the dying Qing Dynasty?
Zhao Yuanshan, who has a modern vision, is no longer satisfied with passive survival, and begins to think about how to protect himself and his family in troubled times, looking for the possibility of changing his destiny.
The first-person perspective truly restores the life of the new army in the late Qing Dynasty, blending historical events and fiction to show the awakening and choices of ordinary soldiers in the torrent of the times.
As the protagonist's position changes, his thinking also changes, taking you to experience the different feelings brought about by the change in perspective.
Reader comments
The writing is very good, the content is wonderful, the various historical figures are described with flesh and blood, and they can be perfectly integrated into it. I haven't seen such a good novel on Tomato for a long time. I hope that the author will not hesitate and keep writing. The popularity will definitely be very high in the future. Currently, the history category can definitely be ranked in the top ten. If we just talk about Beiyang, the novels in recent years can be regarded as the champion!
