Loyal Souls of the Tang Dynasty's Western Regions: When the Great Wind Rises, We Return Home

At the imperial court of the Great Tang, Emperor Dezong and his ministers wept uncontrollably at the sight of a frail young soldier.

Cut off from all communication and stranded in a remote wilderness for over a decade, the Anxi Protectorate still held all four garrisons without losing a single city.

The Tang banner still flew high above the deserts and skies of the Western Regions.

Li Fan, the youngest member of the imperial clan, set out for the frontier garrison, carrying the most powerful Command System.

"Great Protector, Hexi and Longyou have fallen. The enemy is strong, and the court can barely look after itself. We are alone in this isolated outpost. We must rebuild the four garrisons so we can stand on our own, gather strength, and wait for the chance to strike back."

"We'll follow your lead, King Tuo! We soldiers are ready to give our lives!"

Li Fan waved his commander's pennant and declared:

"Upgrade the four garrisons into town halls, bring in settlers, reclaim wasteland, and stockpile food and supplies.

Install soldier management panels, so our strength, equipment, and supplies are all clear at a glance.

Build new barracks, stables, smithies, veterans' halls, and altars to the God of War.

Refresh the battle leaderboard and reward service. Fairly, impartially, and openly.

At this rate, within a few years we'll surely defeat the four barbarians and sweep across the lands!

When the winds rise again next year, we'll surely return to our homeland!
