Three Kingdoms: Laying Low as a Foot Soldier

The protagonist transmigrates and becomes a low-ranking Yellow Turban soldier. To stay alive, he has no choice but to fight the government troops. Using his wits, he defeats them and fights his way out of the encirclement, but this draws the attention of the great generals of the late Han Dynasty, who grow wary of him. The Han Empire puts him on its wanted list. After escaping, he establishes a force of eight hundred wandering bandits, campaigning across the south and north as they grow stronger. At one point, they even surround Luoyang, forcing the Han emperor to name him General Who Pacifies Wu. He thus casts off the label of rebel and becomes a government soldier. He then pacifies Mobei, seizes the Hetao region, defeats four allied warlords, and establishes his own power base. He goes on to destroy the northern nomadic tribes, finally resolving a thousand-year threat to the Han people. After fighting Dong Zhuo, plotting to take Liangzhou, seizing the Guanzhong region, and defeating the eighteen warlords, he becomes the most powerful man in the land.
