In the middle period of the Republic of China, the country was in chaos, the political situation was turbulent, the reactionaries were ready to make moves, and the invaders launched a war against China.
For a time, the country was in ruins, the people were living in misery, and warlords from all over the country were holding their own troops.
The male protagonist Cao Ze quickly assembled a powerful team and joined the battle against invaders and reactionary forces.
With his outstanding leadership skills and fearless performance, Cao Ze became the commander of the Cao family warlord at a young age.
In the capital city at that time, there were three major warlord forces standing in a three-way balance of power.
Among them, the male protagonist Cao Ze holds the most respected position and has immense power, so no one dares to provoke him easily. He is also a figure deeply feared by those reactionaries with ulterior motives.
Wang Zi from the Wang family is also one of the most influential figures in the city. The two formed a partnership due to common interests and goals, and are also friends in private.
Xie Tianyi of the Xie family is always at odds with the Cao family. On the surface, the Xie family is just a warlord force, but in fact, they are a deeply hidden reactionary faction.
For a long time, the Xie family has been secretly colluding with the island invaders, constantly passing important intelligence about China to the other side, and even selling out the location and action plans of Chinese soldiers.
Xie Tianyi was determined to surrender to the island nation in exchange for his own wealth, glory and power.
Afterwards, the madman Xie Tianyi used a strategy to lure the tiger away from the mountain, deceiving the Cao and Wang families and letting the enemy enter the city. The island invaders gathered heavy troops and marched straight towards the capital.
Faced with a large number of well-equipped enemy troops, the defenders in the city were immediately put in a passive situation.
In the end, in order to prevent more innocent civilians from suffering from the ravages of war, several senior officials had to make a difficult decision and temporarily compromise with the enemy and agree to allow them to be stationed in the capital.
The male protagonist Cao Ze appears to be calm on the surface, but in fact he is slowly investigating the enemy's arsenal and plans, sending out messages asking for delay and support.
He even joined forces with the Wang family in the capital, killed the enemy leader and repelled the enemy army.
Finally, the hero and his men pursued the victory and won the war after several years.
The original owner was the young master of the Xie family, the son of Xie Tianyi. He was a capricious and domineering man who relied on his father's power to bully and abuse the city. He was lawless, oppressing the people and squandering money, becoming a major scourge to the city.
The common people in the city hated and feared the young master of the Xie family. Whenever they saw him, they would hide away from him, for fear of getting into trouble by accident.
He had once been mercilessly beaten up by Cao Ze with a gun pointed at his head. Since then, the original owner had harbored resentment towards Cao Ze, but due to the other party's authority, he dared not do anything excessive.
When the war officially broke out, the original owner betrayed his country like his father did. Cao Ze shot and executed this traitor who sold out his country for personal gain.
Now, the story has developed to the point where the enemy has entered the capital. The whole city appears to be calm on the surface, but secretly it is turbulent and full of crises.
At this time, Xie Qi, who was lying on the bed and had received the plot, slowly opened his eyes.
His deep and bright eyes revealed a hint of disbelief. After a long silence, he finally said, "I'm a villain?"
948: "Host, you are at most cannon fodder among the villains. Your father is the villain."
Xie Qi rolled his eyes and said speechlessly: "That's the original owner's father, not my father."
Xie Qi then frowned, a puzzled look on his face. He stroked his chin and asked thoughtfully, "Why do I feel like something's not right about this plane?"
948 Hearing this, he asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
Xie Qi sat up straighter, thought for a moment, and then analyzed, "Since I'm now the villain's son, I have every chance of obtaining important intelligence from the original owner's father. I can even find a way to turn him against the original owner. With me as an undercover agent, isn't that easy?"
Xie Qi: "Hmm... is it that smooth? Didn't you say the missions get more difficult as you go along?"
However, just as Xie Qi finished speaking, there was a slight "creak" sound, and the door that was originally closed was suddenly pushed open gently from the outside.
A thin, submissive-looking servant tiptoed into the room, holding a copper basin filled with water in both hands. His steps were slow and steady, as if he was afraid of spilling a drop of water.
He walked carefully across the room and went straight to the bed. When he reached the bed, the servant knelt on his knees, making a slight sound when his knees touched the ground.
He lowered his head, not daring to look directly at the person on the bed, and said respectfully: "I heard that the young master has woken up, so I specially prepared water for washing." His voice was neither loud nor soft, just loud enough for Xie Qi who was sitting on the bed to hear clearly.
Xie Qi saw the servant kneeling in front of him, and subconsciously raised his right hand, wanting to help him up, and said, "You stand up first..."
However, before he could finish his words, a sharp pain came from his heart, as if an invisible big hand was tightly grasping his heart and kneading it hard, making him unbearable.
As the severe pain hit, Xie Qi's body twitched involuntarily. With a dull "bang", he fell straight off the bed to the ground.
The servant was shocked when he saw this and couldn't help but screaming: "Master! What's wrong with you?!" He quickly crawled to Xie Qi's side using his hands and feet, wanting to see what had happened.
At this time, Xie Qi covered his heart tightly with his hands, his face was as pale as paper, and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead.
But this stinging pain seemed to last only for a moment, and now Xie Qi could no longer feel any pain. He struggled to support his body and sat up from the cold and hard ground.
Then, Xie Qi looked up at the panicked servant and comforted him, "Don't be nervous, I'm fine..."
Unfortunately, before he could finish his words, Xie Qi could no longer suppress the surging blood in his body. He suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of bright red blood with a "puff" sound.
Immediately afterwards, Xie Qi's eyes went dark and he completely lost consciousness. He fell limply to the ground, unconscious.
This sudden change scared the servants who were waiting nearby to death. They tumbled and crawled towards the door, shouting at the top of their lungs: "Oh no! The young master is vomiting blood! Help! Help!"
The housekeeper, who was busy in the courtyard, was startled when he heard the exclamation. He rushed in without thinking and put Xie Qi on the bed.
Afterwards, he immediately sent someone to invite the most prestigious doctor in the city to come and treat Xie Qi.
