This Crazy Tomato ancient battlefield novel "Border Warriors, Picking Up a Subjugated Empress at the Beginning" is definitely a ceiling-level novel that you have to stay up late to finish. It is high-energy and has no peeing spots throughout. It is full of passion, intrigue, sweet pets, and counterattacks. After reading it, you will not be able to stop! In troubled times, wars raged at the border, the former unified dynasty fell apart, barbarian cavalry trampled the mountains and rivers, the people were displaced, and the soldiers were stained with blood on the battlefield. The male protagonist is originally an inconspicuous soldier in the border area. He has no prominent family background or huge power. He only has a strong body and unyielding courage. He struggles to survive in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. He just wants to hold on to the lonely city at his feet and survive. Who would have thought that an ordinary battlefield inspection would save the subjugated empress who was covered in wounds and in a miserable state! The empress, who once ruled the world and was unrivaled in dignity, lost her country and her family, and became a prisoner who could be bullied by everyone. She suffered humiliation and lingered on, becoming the most vulnerable duckweed in troubled times. They were two very different people, but they unexpectedly met at the border in troubled times, and their fates became tightly entangled!

The empress is by no means a weak dodder. She is forbearing, intelligent, and caring about the world. Although she is in a desperate situation, she still has the mind and strategy of an emperor. She understands tactics and is good at understanding people. She silently helps the male protagonist behind his back, analyzes the current situation for him and stabilizes people's hearts. The two are dependent on each other in troubled times and run in both directions. There is no bloody misunderstanding, only the deep love of fighting side by side.

Historical imagination ➕God-given Liu Ying ➕"Father is kind and son is filial" ➕Funny style. The male protagonist is Liu Ying, who has been able to dream about the future since she was a child. She is a real child but smart, and can't get along with Liu Bang. The male protagonist thinks that everyone is better than Liu Bang as a father, and even writes books about Cricket Liu Bang. The heartthrob prince, the father of all men, VS the emperor, the chosen son with a skinny face. The battle between father and son, the struggle for imperial power, the narrative is quite funny,
