    Two books by the same author, "Zhi Ge" is the first, and "Jun Ge" is the second. The same story is told in two separate books, set in a zombie apocalypse, but realistically grounded with a hardcore military theme. There are virtually no superpowers (some people have far-seeing abilities, others better hearing, but these shouldn't be considered superpowers; they're largely useless here). It's all about grand-scale battles between the army and zombies. There are no cheat codes, no time travel, and no reincarnation. The story depicts a sudden zombie outbreak, where the protagonist, a marketing employee trapped in a rural village, is appointed as a militia squad leader, rescuing himself and others, gradually rising to become the commander of the regular army's First Division in Hubei. The protagonist possesses some warlord-like tendencies, being decisive and ruthless, but is constrained by the initial principles of the People's Army, gradually maturing. This is a good book where party spirit and humanity shine brightly. It doesn't belittle the functions of the government and the army, nor does it promote individual heroism.

47. 47 流 Wandering in 1937 流浪在一九三七 Young October Person年轻的十月人Urban894k WordsOngoing A rare realistic War of Resistance novel on the Tomato platform. Its selling point is the absence of a golden finger, and its strengths are its harsh realism and emotionally compelling characters. However, the prose is rough early on, partly due to the author's writing ability and the platform's pacing. Best suited to readers who enjoy hard-hitting War of Resistance stories and don't mind a slow start. 4.6kReads8.7Score303Shelves
