A battalion commander and the second child in his family. Grew up in a poor rural household where he was the least favored but also the tallest and ate the most. His parents often resented him. Joined the army at sixteen or seventeen to have enough to eat. After years of hardship became a battalion commander, bringing honor to his family. Brought his mother Old Lady Xue to live with him partly out of pride to show off his success. He is married to Yin Guixiang and has three young daughters.
