The Little Legend of the 1980s Compound Makes Gear by Hand and Astounds the World

Lin Yue, the youngest chief weapons designer in the Dragon Kingdom, opened her eyes after an experimental accident and found herself back in the resource-strapped 1980s, turned into a tiny, helpless baby.

She had been abandoned at the entrance to a military compound, where the tough-as-nails regiment commander Lin Zhenguo found her and took her home.

From then on, this little girl of unknown origins became the apple of the entire compound's eye.

Her father was a regiment commander, her mother a military doctor, her older brother a future ace soldier, and her neighbors were all generals and division commanders.

Lin Yue had planned to spend her days peacefully being cute, enjoying a carefree childhood without KPIs.

But watching her father worry about outdated equipment, and seeing soldiers suffer unnecessary casualties because of a lack of proper gear, the patriotism and professional instincts etched into her bones made it impossible to stand by.

And so, a series of astonishing scenes unfolded in the military compound:

At three, Lin Yue built a model of a new tank's suspension system out of blocks;

At four, she “slipped up” and revealed key specifications for improving artillery barrel rifling;

At five, a “little modification” she made to her brother's toy gun unexpectedly solved a training problem for the troops.

Everyone thought she was a little prodigy, a lucky star sent from heaven.

Only Shen Che, a cool and handsome boy who had been quietly watching her all along, looked at her with a questioning gaze. “Lin Yue, who are you, really?”

Lin Yue hugged her baby bottle and looked utterly innocent. “Me? I'm the country's little darling!”

This is the lighthearted, hilarious, and stirring story of a top weapons expert reborn as an adorable little girl, doted on by everyone in a military compound, and using knowledge far ahead of its time to gradually modernize her country's weapons.
