Anxi Baitulu

In the thirteenth year of Tianbao, Guo Xin, the nephew of Fenyang King Guo Ziyi, was originally a playboy in Chang'an City who was obsessed with hunting. However, he was forced by his uncle to go to Anxi to serve as a clerk and join the army to sharpen his ambition. When he first arrived in Qiuci, he suffered from the wind and sand and was despised by his colleagues, but he washed away his shame with blood on the Gobi battlefield, realized the true meaning of "defending the soil" in life and death, and transformed from the son of a noble family into the backbone of Anxi. In the 14th year of Tianbao, the Anshi Rebellion broke out. All the elites from Anxi were transferred eastward to quell the rebellion. Guo Xin alone led 3,000 old and weak soldiers to guard the territory of thousands of miles. Facing the eager gaze of the 100,000-strong Tibetan army, he used 800 cavalry to attack 20,000 enemy troops at night under the city of Khotan, and carried up the western gate of the Tang Dynasty with his flesh and blood. From Qujiang Chunzui to Yumen Fenglie, from a dandy boy to an iron-blooded prince, Guo Xin spent his whole life alone, guarding the last dignity and territory for the Tang Dynasty on the ruins of the prosperous age. This is a frontier epic about growth, responsibility and the righteousness of family and country. It describes the tragedy and immortality of a young man who devoted his life to practicing "the city is here and the people are here" in troubled times.
