Martial Saint of Great Xia: Starting as a Border Constable

You alone, go and wipe out the bandit lair at Wulong Ridge." "Ah, just me?" "Yes, just you." ... Facing barbarian invasions, bandit troubles, natural disasters, and man-made calamities... at the border of Great Xia, the low-ranking constable Xu Yong, who has no power, no influence, and no one to rely on, is confronted with several questions. Should he be an upright official and then starve to death, die of illness, or be secretly killed by his colleagues, or should he go along with the corruption and scrape by in this cruel society where the weak are prey to the strong? Should he shed his last drop of blood for the decaying dynasty, or take the path of no return as a rebel? Of course, the most pressing issue right now is how he should complete the task assigned by his superior: with no guns and no horses, directly attack the bandit den, bravely rescue the hostages, and bring glory to the county magistrate's career. — Description from novelcodex.org
