Siheyuan: A Commander Runs the Compound, with Li Yunlong Under His Command

[Period Setting] [Siheyuan] [Iron-Blooded Officer] [Decisive and Ruthless] [Ultimate Power Fantasy]

Twelve years ago, he was the poorest wretch in Courtyard No. 95 on Nanluoguxiang.

Wearing a tattered cotton-padded jacket full of patches, he endured scorn from every household. To save his family one mouthful of grain, he set off for the front lines barefoot at the age of ten!

The beasts in the courtyard sneered: "That poor Song kid probably died in some mud pit long ago!"

Twelve years later, he'd been tempered by the flames of war and earned outstanding military honors!

At twenty-five, with a general's star on his shoulder and command of a vast army, he returned home in glory at the head of an elite iron force!

An American-made Jeep roared ahead to clear the way, while armed guards sealed off the street!

When Song Jianxin, dressed in full uniform with two rows of dazzling medals on his chest, stood at the entrance to the courtyard, everyone there was utterly stunned!

Yan Bugui, the penny-pincher, dropped his watering can in fright and bent over lower than a shrimp;

The hypocritical First Master tried to guilt-trip him with half a sack of cornmeal, but one icy rebuke left him drenched in cold sweat;

Liu Haizhong, obsessed with officialdom, trembled and barely dared to breathe;

Qin Huairu, who had once regretted her choice bitterly, looked at her hands, cracked from soaking in ice water, and felt jealousy and remorse turn her throat sour!

You want to guilt-trip me? I fought my way through a hail of bullets. Let's see if my guards' submachine guns agree!

You want to scheme over grain and family property? I can bring in truckloads of specially supplied white flour, serve American canned meat at every meal, and casually buy Swiss watches to make my younger siblings look good!

To the outside world, he's a brilliant strategist and a modern military ace who sweeps all before him;

At home, he's a pillar of strength who dotes on his younger sister, protects his family, and makes sure they're all living the good life!

And there's a refined, warm-hearted, top student of distinguished family background, writing him letters from the Red Chamber and knitting him a scarf, waiting only for the God of War to lay down his armor so she can marry him in grand style!
