In Liaodong of the Great Jing, drought has ravaged the land for years, leaving corpses strewn everywhere.
Lin Shuo, a modern encyclopedia content creator, is reborn in the body of a condemned slave. He is about to be sent to his death in a suicide squad.
At the brink of life and death, he sets his sights on Xiao Xun, a hundred-man commander whose warhorse is dying and whose eyes are as fierce as a wolf's.
“I'll save your horse, and you take me in.”
After treating the horse, Lin Shuo refuses Xiao Xun's silver and asks only to be taken on as a personal servant.
Xiao Xun says coldly, “I'm not interested in men, and I can't afford to keep a layabout.”
Lin Shuo replies, “I can farm, run a household, and make sure you eat meat every day. You're strong. All I ask is your protection.”
At first, everyone in the camp laughs at Xiao Xun for taking in a burden.
That is, until Lin Shuo clears land and grows crops yielding a thousand jin per mu, improves the army's weapons, and even invents a thunderous explosive.
Short on food? Lin Shuo has it covered! Surrounded? Lin Shuo blows open a path!
By the time Xiao Xun rises from a poor soldier's family to become the Great Jing's General Who Guards the Nation, everyone finally realizes:
That seemingly gentle and capable spouse is the true weapon of the Great Jing.
