The Third Song Empire

At the Battle of Yashan, 200,000 Han Chinese died for their country. For the first time, a Central Plains dynasty fell to foreign invaders, leaving a wound that Han Chinese have never forgotten. By a twist of fate, Wang Huayang takes over the body of Zhao Bing, the last emperor of the Song Dynasty. He leads 200,000 Han Chinese in a breakout from Yashan and reestablishes the nation on Luzon Island. He subdues the natives, crushes rebellions, curbs the power of the aristocratic clans, boosts the population, develops commerce, and trains a new army. After 200,000 people endure hardship and bide their time, they finally reclaim the Central Plains, unite Annam and Goryeo, occupy Japan, annex Nanyang, and restore the Western Regions, making the Song Dynasty the third Chinese empire after the Han and Tang.
