The Long March in Blood and Iron: The Red Star Guides Me Home

Lin Jun, a modern veteran, accidentally transmigrates to the eve of the Red Army’s Long March in 1934 while visiting a revolutionary-era historical site. Armed with precise knowledge of the Long March and modern military expertise, he conceals his identity and joins the Red Army as an ordinary soldier. From the carnage of the Battle of the Xiang River and the twists and turns of the Four Crossings of the Chishui River, to the perilous flight across the Luding Bridge and the desperate trek over snow-covered mountains and through swamplands, Lin Jun uses his foresight to avert deadly dangers, refine tactical details, and save his comrades’ lives time and again, all without changing the course of history. Fighting shoulder to shoulder with revolutionary martyrs like Zeng Jiyan and Lin Yu, he embodies a soldier’s sense of duty with unwavering resolve and holds fast to his patriotic convictions. Amid the hail of bullets, he witnesses the power of faith; through trials of life and death, he stays true to the revolution’s founding ideals. In the end, he completes the Red Army’s historic 25,000-li Long March with his comrades, becoming a quiet yet steadfast guardian of this epic chapter.
