The Toughest Man in the Great Liang

Lu Chen, a modern military engineering PhD, transmigrates into the Great Liang Dynasty as its most wretched Ninth Prince.

His mother was a palace maid who died young.

His father can't stand him, and the Crown Prince spits into his bowl.

From the start, he is branded a traitor, chained up, and exiled to the wilderness.

The imperial guards escorting him discuss selling him to the barbarians. The reward is a thousand taels of silver, and he's worth more alive than dead.

Everyone thinks this useless prince is doomed.

But they don't know that inside this body is the soul of a retired special forces soldier.

He smelts steel, makes gunpowder, builds mighty walls, and trains iron cavalry. In a ruined city on the frontier, he builds an iron fortress that terrifies the world.

Two hundred thousand barbarian cavalry head south?

He leads three thousand light cavalry on a thousand-mile raid and takes thirty thousand heads in a single battle. The Crown Prince joins forces with the Six Ministries to depose him?

He sneers. "The military seals in your hands were forged from steel I made."

From useless prince to ruler who protects the realm, this world doesn't care about reason. It cares about fists.

The strongest fist makes the rules.
