Tears of Mountains and Rivers

The title of the book is taken from Xia Wanchun's "Infinite tears of mountains and rivers, who said the world is broad". On the eve of the Battle of Lazikou in the 24th year of the Republic of China, Chagou Village in Gannan was heavily taxed. Security team member Chen Mazi went to the countryside to collect grain and coveted the peasant girl Li Maisui to prevent her from being forced into marriage. His father and brother fought to the death, but were shot dead. Maisui's family was destroyed overnight, and she was forced to marry into a gangster's den three days later. At the end of the road, the Red Army came to the mountain village. Li Maisui, who was burdened with a blood feud, saw through the darkness of the old era, bid farewell to the lonely graves of his relatives, bid farewell to the stability of his hometown, and resolutely followed the Red Army to join the revolution. The blood and tears of a farmer's family epitomize the chaos of the troubled times, describing the suffering people at the bottom awakening to struggle in the flames of war, and igniting the spark of faith where the mountains and rivers cry.
