Tang Long, in his "virgin battle," faces a formidable enemy lineup of 10,000 cruisers and 3,000 battleships, yet demonstrates unparalleled command skills. Leading a fleet of self-propelled artillery ships akin to cannon fodder, he annihilates the vanguard of the Eagle Empire, earning glorious victories. However, after escaping the brink of death, Tang Long finds himself facing another war with no chance of winning. Betrayed by his own, stripped of his merits, imprisoned, and on the brink of life and death, he vows revenge against the treacherous high-ranking officials of the Federation. At this moment, robots also gain appearances identical to humans.
The protagonist of "Legend of the Little Soldier," Tang Long, was originally a wealthy high school graduate who, through a stroke of luck, becomes a soldier. Rising from obscurity in a chaotic universe as a mere foot soldier, he embarks on a magnificent life story. The author's imagination is incredibly rich, as if guiding readers on an exploration of the vast universe, yet the entire work is not purely whimsical. It reflects human society in every corner, especially in its satire of flattery, bullying, corruption, and bureaucratic antics, which are particularly satisfying. The novel features thrilling plots, witty humor, and incorporates elements of popular online games, making it highly readable—a key reason for its widespread popularity online.
