Republican Era: You Were Supposed to Defend the Coast, but You Took Down the Great Powers

Chu Yao transmigrates into the service of the powerful warlord known as the King of the Southeast. Tasked with commanding Tongcheng and defending the coast, he unexpectedly activates a sign-in System. Knowing how history will unfold, Chu Yao keeps a low profile in Tongcheng, developing industry and military defenses while driving the economy forward at breakneck speed. A sign-in reward of Siemens energy behemoths helps him build an industrial hub. A sign-in reward of vortex spinning machines revives the Dasheng Cotton Mill… Sign-in rewards include blueprints for the Fire Qilin AK-47 assault rifle, a highly mobile Leopard 2A7 tank production line, Hellcat fighter planes… Then, two years later, the campaign to suppress the Iron Army begins… The Nationalist warlords look up at the elite troops outside the city, equipped on a level with the Eagle's First Mechanized Division, and throw down their rifles. “What the hell are we even fighting for? We're going home to farm!” When they hear that Hong Kong Island has been retaken by force, the British fleet sails into territorial waters to demand justice. But when they see the aircraft carrier fleet before them, they immediately lose their nerve. “We'll hand Hong Kong Island back and void the treaty. Could you perhaps reduce the one billion silver dollars in military reparations?” The Manchurian Incident breaks out, the Cherry Blossom invaders launch their assault, and the Fengtian army is thrown into chaos. They send an urgent telegram to the entire country, begging for support! Chu Yao waves a hand, and his troops set out to relieve the siege by attacking Wei to rescue Zhao. “When autumn comes, on the eighth day of the ninth month, I'll ride my horse into Tokyo to admire the cherry blossoms!” The invading Cherry Blossom soldiers return home to find the city filled with red flags. Stunned, they ask, “We just left… How did someone steal our home while we were gone?” Watching Chu Yao run rampant across the world, the warlord bigwigs of the Zhili clique are dumbfounded. They only asked him to defend the coast, and now the kid has taken down the foreign powers?!
