Synopsis

Title: 1979 Border Flames: My Bride Is Waiting for My Triumphant Return

In the winter of 1978, dense fog blankets the river at the Hekou border. Nian Yin has only just had the beams for his wedding bed carved, and the cloth shoes Cheng Yan is making still carry the warmth of her needlework. But shells from the Vietnamese enemy are already trained on the village school, and a hidden spy is probing for secrets about the outpost at the market. The conscription notice is posted throughout the village, and the wedding day is near. He gazes at his beloved’s reddened eyes, but she grips his hand and cries, “As long as our country stands, our home will stand! I’ll wait for you!” As gunfire shatters the peace, he shoulders his rifle and heads to the front, while she stays behind to guard their home and child. Can their pledge to each other on the border withstand the flames of war? Every chapter brings tears and courage, in tribute to the unsung heroes who defend their country and protect their homes!

I'd like something grounded in reality, but with a sensible premise. It can bend reality a little, and preferably have a System.
