In the 20th year of Wanli, Lin Yuan, a military household in Liaodong, went to war to replace his seriously injured father who was bedridden. He crossed the Yalu River and entered the Korean battlefield. He originally thought that by killing the enemy and doing meritorious service, he would be able to get salary, official status and a way back home. But the snowy night in Pyongyang, the defeat of Byokjeokwan, the scam of the Three Kingdoms peace talks, Ding Youzai's chaos and the night fire of Luliang, gradually shattered his fantasy.
Under the flag of the Ming army, there are loyal and brave people, and there are false reports; among the mountains and rivers of Korea, there are requests for help, and there are resentments; deep in the flames of the Japanese city, the missing Paoze is still alive.
When victory finally came, Lin Yuan discovered that the most difficult thing to bring back to his hometown was not the military achievements, but the names swallowed up by the war.
