   Reader note

   This is a good book; the War of Resistance Against Japan is the main focus, and it's very engaging. [From the Long March and the War of Resistance to the Founding of the People's Republic of China and the Korean War]. If a person, with modern knowledge and skills pushed to their limits, returned to the Long March, what could he change? What could he protect? This is the opening question of *Red Star Over the Rivers and Mountains*. The answer is: he could change many things. He could use a sniper rifle to kill the enemy leader at Baozuo, use his medical skills to save his comrades' lives on the grasslands, and even provide early warnings, allowing a famous general who should have sacrificed his life to survive. But he couldn't change much more. He couldn't change hunger, disease, and cold; he couldn't change the vast disparity in strength between the enemy and himself; and he couldn't change the fact that "sacrifice" itself was part of that history. Every "variable" he brought would, like butterfly wings, trigger a chain reaction in 2025—for better or worse, unpredictable. And he himself would be profoundly changed by a soul from 1935. Chen Shugen, a cook who barely knew any characters and only knew that "the squad leader should eat last," taught this sophisticated egoist what "faith" meant through his simple yet unwavering conviction. Therefore, this book is about the clash between "ability" and "faith." Fist may pave a path to survival, but only faith can illuminate the heart.

    Lin Guangyao picked up his pen and added a line below the hastily written suicide note: "Wang Tianfeng, head of the Military Intelligence Bureau's Shanghai station. Died for his country on the 25th day of the first month of 1939. Does anyone remember him?" He put down his pen, folded the letter, and placed it at the bottom of the drawer. There, locked away, was another piece of paper with four lines of poetry: "Where can a drifting duckweed find its anchor in this chaotic world? Only the plum blossoms reflected in the snow. Do not say that the road ahead is full of frost and snow, for our hearts are connected by a single thread of understanding." The ink had faded somewhat. He gently stroked those lines, as if stroking an old dream that could never be returned to. Outside the window, the lights of No. 76 Across the street were still bright. Behind one of the windows, a woman in a black uniform was looking down, flipping through the files she needed to process that night. She did not look up. He did not wait. He simply closed the drawer, stood up, and walked to the window. The night in Shanghai was always so unfathomably black. But he knew that even the darkest night would eventually give way to dawn. I just wonder if those who never wake up again after dawn will feel any regret. Lin Guangyao stood there for a long time. Long enough for the moon to move from the top of the sycamore tree to the eaves. Long enough for the clock to strike eleven. Long enough for him to finally say to himself: Zhou Wenhao, I've finished writing your poem for you. Wang Tianfeng, I've preserved your name for you. I'm still walking the path you walked. The day I can no longer walk, I will stop, just like you.
