Synopsis

In the autumn of 1936, Su Baiyu, a military theory enthusiast, transmigrates into the frail body of a first-year student at the Whampoa Military Academy’s 11th class. He disguises modern tactics as “insights from a family military manual” and distinguishes himself before German adviser Alexander von Falkenhausen and instructor Qian Zongze. When the War of Resistance breaks out, he leads a German-equipped platoon in a desperate defense of Shanghai and fights bloody battles in Nanjing, repeatedly dealing blows to the Japanese with an early form of the three-by-three formation and ricochet fortifications. Through eight years of war, he rises from second lieutenant platoon leader to colonel and regimental commander, every promotion forged in a sea of blood and mountains of corpses. The German weapons are eventually exhausted, but the edge of coordinated combat has been etched into his bones. He never reveals that he is a time traveler, even on his deathbed. All he leaves behind is a book, The Edge of German Arms, and his final embrace with Zhao Yongli, the machine gunner with an amputated arm, and Li Qingshan, the one-eyed sniper. On Victory Day, they hold each other and weep: the land is safe again, and their souls can return home.
