In 1940, in northwest Shanxi, Zhou Weiguo, deputy company commander of an Eighth Route Army reconnaissance unit, is knocked unconscious by a Japanese shell during a skirmish.
When he wakes, he finds a small battlefield map visible only to him!
Enemy positions, troop deployments, patrol routes, supply depots... everything is marked with perfect clarity!
Red dots are enemies, green dots are allies, and yellow dots are neutral targets. There is also a golden icon that keeps flashing: a hidden mission!
“Ding! Two Japanese sentries detected 200 meters away. They are changing shifts. The window is 37 seconds.”
“Ding! Japanese secret ammunition depot discovered. Twelve guards. Hidden mission triggered: destroy the depot and expand your reconnaissance range by 500 meters.”
“Ding! Warning! An enemy company three kilometers away is moving toward your position. Estimated arrival time: 47 minutes.”
Others fight with courage. He fights with information!
With Zhou Weiguo's reconnaissance training and his small map that reveals the entire battlefield, he becomes a nightmare the Japanese cannot escape!
The Japanese call him “the Ghost.”
The locals call him “the Living Map.”
His superior asks, “Comrade Zhou Weiguo, how on earth did you get all this intelligence?”
Zhou Weiguo smiles. “Reporting, sir, my intelligence source is... absolutely reliable.”
