Features: Mai Jia has swept the literary world with his works Decoding and The Dark Numbers. Professor Chen Xiaoming, a renowned literary critic from the Department of Chinese at Peking University, wrote in an article that for the contemporary Chinese literary scene, Mai Jia's writing undoubtedly belongs to a unique path. This person has become undeniable, so tenacious, absolute, and stubborn. His novels are mysterious, dark, magical, and unfathomable, filled with hidden complexities that leave readers breathless. His emergence is like a shadow cast upon the brilliant literary world, causing some alarm. Reading his works is like being lured into a remote valley where darkness begins to descend. There is no turning back, only stumbling in the dark. It is truly a lonely reading experience, much like his writing. Will Mai Jia's new work Military also stir up a whirlwind? This book consists of multiple military-themed short stories, containing extraordinary life philosophies and wisdom, with subtle allegories of the corruption in real life and that critique societal issues. It can be considered the modern-day "Almanack for Warnings." In terms of style, the novel follows Mai Jia's consistent writing approach: characters are legendary, and the plots are intricate and captivating. It is a military novel full of humanistic care, combining readability and thoughtfulness.
