War of Resistance: I'm from Huangpu's Fenghua Faction, and I Just Got Promoted a Little Too Fast

In the spring of 1924, in Xikou, Fenghua, the fate of a transmigrator was quietly rewritten. Lin Zhao, a retired modern special forces officer, unexpectedly transmigrates into the Republic of China era and becomes a true fellow townsman of Principal Jiang, both of them from Fenghua. He wakes up penniless, but possesses military insight far beyond his time and a ruthless decisiveness etched into his very bones. He knows that in troubled times, being from the same hometown is the best calling card of all. A cleverly worded letter of introduction and the line, “A junior from Xikou, ready to serve as your humble attendant, Principal,” open the doors to the place where countless lives are decided. In May of that same year, Lin Zhao enters the first class of the Whampoa Military Academy. He makes his mark from the moment he arrives: his tactical exercises leave instructors in the dust, he takes first place with a perfect score in marksmanship, and his drill formations are so flawless that even the Japanese instructor can find no fault. He seems less like a student than a blade already honed for battle. But Lin Zhao knows that Whampoa is only the beginning. He also knows that the true enemy is not only across the battlefield.
