"Grounded in genuine historical artifacts and blending rigorous historical research with literary narrative, this work reflects, through the rise and fall of ordinary individuals, the countless shattered families and silent sacrifices behind the Qin unification wars.
作品以真实文物为基石,融历史考据于文学叙事,通过小人物的命运沉浮,映照秦统一战争背后无数破碎的家庭与无声的牺牲。
Death of a Soldier: Heifu the Qin Soldier's Final Letter Home is a historical novel set in the final years of the Warring States period, when the state of Qin conquered the other six states. The story revolves around an ordinary Qin family from Anlu, Yunmeng, focusing on the struggles of the elder brother Zhong and his two younger brothers, Heifu and Jing, as they fight to survive under the harsh Qin laws and the relentless wars of conscription.
Ying, the youngest daughter of the family, was originally an orphan. She was found in the mountains by Jing and brought home, forming an unbreakable bond with the family. Unable to fight on the battlefield due to a leg disability, Zhong relies on a recommendation from Yingji Ji, a retainer, to seek a career in the Qin capital, Xianyang. Heifu, bold and courageous, is determined to change the family's fate through military merit. Jing, gentle and home-loving, has just married his childhood sweetheart Xiao when he is conscripted into the army.
The novel follows the conscription of Heifu and Jing as they join campaigns against Wei and Chu, offering a detailed depiction of the Qin military's merit-based rank system, its stringent laws, the realities of the battlefield, and the bonds of longing and watchfulness between soldiers and their families amidst the flames of war. Two authentic letters unearthed from the Shuihudi site in Yunmeng run throughout the book, serving as the final link between the brothers and their family. As the campaign against Chu reaches its tragic end, both Heifu and Jing fall on the battlefield, leaving behind Xiao's unborn child, Jue, and Ying's figure as she journeys far away to Xianyang in search of her own path in life.
《士兵之死:大秦士兵黑夫的绝笔家书》是一部以战国末期秦灭六国为背景的历史小说。故事围绕云梦安陆一户普通秦人家庭展开,兄长衷与两位弟弟黑夫、惊在严苛的秦法与连年征战中挣扎求生。
家中的小女儿婴本为孤儿,被惊在山中捡回收养,与这个家庭结下不解之缘。衷因腿疾无法上阵厮杀,幸得门客婴记季引荐,前往咸阳谋求仕途;黑夫勇武豪迈,一心渴望通过军功改变家族命运;惊则性情温和、恋家惜亲,刚与青梅竹马晓成婚,便被征召入伍。
