   A story of power struggles in the late Qing Dynasty! Of all things to transmigrate to, I've transmigrated to the most detailed and historically significant period in modern China. Western capitalist powers are entering the imperial era, greedily carving up the world. I've come! I've witnessed! I've conquered! An eye for an eye, I'll make the world remember the profound heritage of this ancient civilization. I want future generations of my countrymen to read this history and proudly look down upon the world. Five thousand years of civilization are glossed over, while a century of humiliation is divided into two volumes. Remember history, never forget national shame.

   Highly recommended! This is a female-centric novel. The female lead is incredibly capable from the start—a research genius. Due to some family issues, she was sent to the countryside. Not wanting to work, she developed some inventions and other projects, which caught the attention of some influential figures. She's definitely a force for national technological advancement. She's also incredibly skilled in martial arts; even the male lead might not be able to beat her. Later, she joins the army for various reasons, showcasing both her intellectual and physical abilities. She single-handedly supported her family during that era. Interestingly, she has a terrible sense of direction and can easily get lost, which is hilarious. Her only wish is for her father to be reinstated so she can retire and live off her parents [laughing emoji]. She has no sense of responsibility whatsoever, only wanting to rely on her grandparents (grandfather, brother, nephew). It's fantastic, a great read, definitely worth watching! Highly recommended!!!

Li Yunlong: Dabiao, a corps is still a regiment; the higher-ups don't give us official ranks, so there's nothing I can do. Wang Xikui: I just killed a Japanese major general; what's the reward?
