I Am a Special Forces Soldier 2, Chen Shanming x Gong Jian. Loyal husky seme x proud little fox uke. A military BL novel. My first love in the world of BL. In Special Forces Soldier 2, this male-male pairing was practically confirmed by the show itself. It can be said to be the only military drama that subtly alluded to the issue of same-sex romance among special forces soldiers. (Though I don’t know whether Liu Meng was just playing with BL now and then, or whether he really noticed an issue that couldn’t be openly discussed and was hinting at it.)
I dedicate this story to every peacekeeping soldier who has earned a peacekeeping medal while defending peace in war-torn foreign countries; to every firefighter who has fearlessly charged into raging flames; to every special forces soldier striving for light in unseen darkness; to every armed special police officer who uses their own body as the city’s last line of defense; to every anti-drug police officer who keeps drugs outside the national borders to protect everyone’s lives; and to every war correspondent who puts their life on the line at the front. I dedicate it to my uncle, who died a hero; to the parents of my older brother, who died on the front line of the anti-drug campaign; and to my older brother, who is far away serving in the peacekeeping police force in Liberia. With this story, I pay tribute to all the nameless Chinese soldiers and police officers, and to my honorable civilian comrades among the war correspondents. I swear that after I graduate and begin working, I will follow in your footsteps and fly to foreign lands torn by war, carrying on your glorious deeds. With my writing, I will make my country stronger, live up to the honor of being a Chinese soldier, and defend the peace for which you earned your medals.
