The King of Soldiers, Lin Feng, transmigrates to the Republic of China era and becomes the illegitimate son of a warlord, someone even the household dogs dare to bully.
When his legitimate elder brother tries to make him “die of illness,” Lin Feng shoots him dead instead.
“The times? I am the new era.”
From the start, he binds himself to the Tyrant System, giving him firearms and military technology that leave everyone else in the dust.
His own faction tries to seize power? He trains his troops with modern tactics and turns them into an iron-blooded personal guard in just three days.
The foreign powers bully China? He sets up a Maxim gun and points it at the concessions. “Get out, or die.”
The warlords fight among themselves? Before he can build a tank, he converts trucks into armored cars and beats them until they're begging for mercy.
They say beauties are doomed to suffer in troubled times. Lin Feng is determined to protect every last one of them.
The proud young heiress from Shanghai, fresh back from studying abroad, initially thinks he's a boorish warlord's son.
Then her family goes bankrupt, and he saves her with one hand while taking over half the businesses south of the Yangtze with the other.
Eyes red, she grabs his uniform. “In this world, you're the only one I trust.”
But that's only the beginning.
A dashing female officer, a gentle underground operative, a seductive enemy spy, a fallen White Russian princess…
The world may be battered by the storms of war, but I won't give up a single inch of my realm or a single one of my beauties.
Years later, I command a million armored troops and control the lifeline of the Far East.
My once-arrogant elder brother trembles on his knees in the rain, while foreign envoys bow and offer up their treaties.
With five peerless beauties at my side, I load my gun and smile coldly:
“The Republic of China is vast, but it has no room for a second king.”
“From today on, I make the rules.”
