   These four books are all incredibly good, each one better than the last. They have no female leads, yet they're not mindless and are very logical. The first one: The protagonist is named Lin Tian. It's not a traditional soldier-king novel; the protagonist's family is very warm, and it describes daily military life quite a bit. It's very good. The second one: The protagonist is named Meng Yan. He's been in the army for less than a year and has already achieved many merits, including third-class merit, second-class merit, first-class merit, and second-class hero. Although the protagonist seems a bit unreliable, he saves many, many people, which is very touching [almost crying]. Unlike other novels where the protagonist starts as a low-level soldier and later joins the special forces, the protagonist builds his own team later on. No female lead (emphasis added!), It's very good. I've already finished the latest chapter and am looking forward to the author's updates. You won't regret reading it! However, I must add that this book has a system, but its presence is almost zero because it's so good, so I still recommended it. The third one: Hehe, this one doesn't need much introduction, right? The pinnacle of military novels, my white moonlight, the first military novel I read, super good! The fourth book has an interesting premise: the protagonist is forced into military service by his father, who is a special forces captain. Later, during a training exercise, the protagonist kidnaps his father and beats him up, which is quite funny.

    Both of these books are incredibly good, with very positive values. There's no female lead or system; the protagonists advance step by step through their own hard work. In the first book, the protagonist, after being rescued by soldiers, chooses to join the army.

The protagonist is an extremely optimistic and positive person. In the second book, the protagonist has been on missions with a mysterious military unit abroad since childhood.

    Both of these books (both have systems) have different themes. The first one features a male protagonist in school who loves intense competition. While others rest, he runs; while others rest, he practices military equipment; while others rest, he practices holding a gun. He's incredibly competitive (the system only enhances his own abilities; his actual abilities are still developed through his own efforts). The second book features a protagonist directly in the military, with incredibly realistic early training and later battle scenes. It portrays the mutual trust between teammates very realistically, making it a great read. The teammates are also incredibly funny—wow, how could Fadasi do that? Later in the battle, he slaps the enemy—it's absolutely hilarious!
