Chronicles of War in Another World

This is a parallel world similar to our own, yet utterly different. The iron cavalry of the northern Hu people swept south, occupying half of the land of Huaxia; wherever they passed, they burned, killed, and plundered, leaving prefectures and counties in ruins and the common people displaced. The Southern Xia regime huddled in a corner, the court content with temporary peace, the border troubles unending, and the whole realm teetering in the storm. The protagonist, Li Ting, was originally an ordinary villager in the countryside, living a poor but stable life with his wife. Yet in a time of chaos, stability is the greatest luxury. The Hu people abducted his wife, utterly shattering his peaceful life. To find his wife, Li Ting was forced to leave the countryside and set out on a thousand-li journey in search of her. Along the way, he witnessed the broken mountains and rivers and the desolation of the people's livelihood, and was drawn into the surging upheavals of the realm. At first, he was merely an ordinary man who only wanted to find his wife; but amid the torrent of chaotic times, he happened to be in the right place at the right time, grew step by step, and ultimately carved out a earth-shaking great enterprise. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Chronicles of War in Another World — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
