Zhang Fan transmigrates to the third year of the Xianfeng era and obtains an Age of Empires System. As long as he has gold and silver on hand, he can recruit unlimited troops.
In the nineteenth century, foreign powers invade, peasant uprisings rage, and the corrupt Manchu Qing rule rots from within. Life is far too hard for the Chinese people in this era. Zhang Fan, who has transmigrated to this world, decides to save his compatriots and change China's humiliating modern history.
Chinese crossbowmen thrash British lobsterbacks, cuirassiers teach the Eight Banners a lesson, and Zhang Fan's version of the Divine Machine Battalion declares that the foreign devils' firearms are so low-tech.
Xianfeng: "Zhang Fan, Daddy, spare my life!"
Hong Xiuquan: "Maybe he's the real Son of God."
Queen Victoria: "Faced with Zhang Fan, the British Empire can only back down."
Zhang Fan: "For the survival of the Chinese people, I'll just have to beat the world's great powers senseless."
