Guarding the border with his wife, a fierce soldier suppresses Beimang with one sword

Transmigrated into the chaotic turmoil of the Northern Frontier, former Dragon Flame special forces soldier Xiao Ye finds himself destitute and starving. Seizing an opportunity when the imperial court offers wives to new recruits, he marries three women at once: Su Wanniang, a gentle and domestic-minded descendant of a general’s family; Chu Qinglin, a minister’s daughter who once looked down on him; and Jiang Lingyue, a young woman from Beiliang driven by a thirst for revenge against the Tartar invaders. Xiao Ye’s rise is fueled by two ancestral treasures: an erotic manual that aids his cultivation and a mysterious black iron pendant that absorbs combat power from slain enemies, granting him endless stamina and increasing strength in battle. His journey begins with immediate conflict. When local bullies attempt to harass his wives, Xiao Ye drives them off with brutal efficiency. However, he faces internal sabotage from Zhou Hu, a corrupt recruitment officer who assigns him rusted weapons, rotten armor, and a suicidal position as the vanguard flag-bearer. When the Northern Barbarian cavalry breaches the pass, the rookie formation shatters instantly, and Zhou Hu flees behind the city gates, abandoning his men to die. Refusing to yield, Xiao Ye wields a twenty-four-jin iron saber, focusing his attacks on the horses’ legs to dismantle the cavalry charge. Single-handedly, he cuts down dozens of enemy riders, holding the village entrance alone until reinforcements arrive. In the aftermath, he is promoted to squad leader on the battlefield, rewarded with silver, armor, and a heirloom spear manual. He publicly punishes the deserter Zhou Hu with eighty military lashes. Despite facing further obstruction through unfair land taxes and bureaucratic schemes, Xiao Ye relies on his dual cheats and the support of his beloved wives. In this chaotic northern landscape, he vows to step over the corpses of the Northern Barbarians, rising from a mere refugee to the legendary God of War who guards the north.
