In 1943, Zhao Tao, a military translator and telegraph operator, lurked at Wang Puppet No. 76. He had a low status and could be bullied by everyone. But when the Japanese military intelligence was accidentally leaked and all suspicions were pointed at him, he worked step by step in a desperate situation. With carefully woven lies and calculations, he not only cleared the suspicion, but also played tricks on No. 76 And the Japanese Super High School. He is modest on the surface, but in reality he is sinister. He uses every piece of intelligence to manipulate every opponent, from deciphering secret messages to instigating rebellion against high-ranking officials, from infiltrating Japanese espionage networks to guiding battlefield situations. As a mortal, with no system or backstage, relying only on his meticulous mind and iron will, in this chess game of flesh and blood and conspiracy, he gradually shakes the seemingly invincible "gods" - the Japanese intelligence giant, the military commander, and the top puppet king. When the entire battle situation quietly tilted because of him, he was no longer a chess piece, but the chess player.
