Man Jiang Hong: Wu Mu Reborn

In his previous life, he was just a workplace novice. Armed only with Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Brother Qiang’s edition of The Art of War, and Wang Shouren’s Instructions for Practical Living, he was reborn as Yue Fei on his return from the northern campaign. He must face the ruler known as “the winner of a lifetime achievement Oscar,” Ninth Brother; Chancellor Qin, who has spent decades navigating the treacherous sea of officialdom; Grand Marshal Zhang, who takes shamelessness to the very end; and a host of arrogant, battle-hardened generals and military commanders of every rank... After surviving countless brushes with death, he sweeps corrupt officials from the court and restores the proper order of government.

Meanwhile, the Western Xia kingdom has stationed troops in Longxi, eyeing the eight-hundred-li expanse of Qin lands in the Guanzhong region...

In the western campaign, he will sweep across the desert, destroy Western Xia, and cow the Tibetan tribes. He will establish the Annam Protectorate and rule the Indochinese Peninsula. He will raze Kyoto, cut down every cherry tree for a hundred li, and relocate the Wa people to pacify the vast sea... Weary of blades, warhorses, and encampments stretching as far as the eye can see, he turns back at last, only to find that “she” is waiting beyond the palace walls...
