No System, no golden finger. This is a military novel grounded in reality. The heroine is only there for a little color, since a story without a heroine wouldn’t be politically acceptable. How else could the protagonist become a general? There are military exercises, earthquake relief, and new-recruit training. It portrays life in the armed forces from an officer’s perspective. This isn’t a lightweight novel, and it may not be everyone’s cup of tea.
