Transmigrating to Become an Iron-Blooded Soldier

Transmigrating to the War of Resistance | Protagonist: Yang Chong

Yang Chong, a modern special forces instructor, opens his eyes in a village in northern China on the day of the Marco Polo Bridge Incident in 1937. No System, no golden finger, just military knowledge in his head and a burning desire to fight.

Starting with the rescue of his first comrade from the ruins, Yang Chong gathers scattered soldiers, hunters, blacksmiths, and students to form a force of a dozen or so men. Using modern special-operations tactics, he wins his first ambush, wiping out a Japanese squad and securing his first spoils of war.

The army puts down roots in the Taihang Mountains, growing from an independent battalion to an independent regiment, an independent brigade, and a regular division. The night raid on Yangmingbao, the ambush of an inspection group, the Hundred Regiments Offensive, the counterattack against the Ninth Route Encirclement... Yang Chong leads his troops in one classic battle after another, moving from guerrilla warfare to assaults on fortified positions, and from a handful of men to tens of thousands.

Over eight years of resistance, Yang Chong grows from a schoolteacher into a founding general. He witnesses the darkest of times, as well as the greatest awakening in the history of the Chinese nation.

This is not the story of one man’s heroism, but the history written in the blood and passion of many.
