War King: My Return Makes the Nation Submit to Me

Zhan Tiandi wanted his mother's death answered for. His father had abandoned the family when he was a child, and his mother had taken him and his younger sister to the East Sea to earn a living there. Someone framed her, and she was pushed into jumping from a building. The people behind it then came for the children, to keep them quiet. A stranger showed up, got Zhan Tiandi out, and put him in the army. Ten years of fighting on the border followed. He started as a low-ranking soldier and ended as the Warwing Divine King, with half the empire's military power under him. He led the ironclad cavalry along the frontier, held the border, and drove back the invaders from beyond it. Then the court summoned him back to the capital to report. Shangguan Nalan, the Chen family and the Sun family were all still there.
