Transmigrating into Bai Qi, rewriting the Warring States period
At a top university in the 21st century, Lin Yu was an ordinary student with a particular fascination for the history of the Warring States period. After an archaeological accident, he somehow traveled through time and took over the body of the famed God of War of the Warring States, Bai Qi.
When he first arrived on the battlefield and gazed at the scene of clashing weapons and warhorses before him, Lin Yu was momentarily stunned. But his years of historical research and his own decisiveness quickly took over. Knowing how much respect Bai Qi commanded in the Qin army, he skillfully used that to his advantage and directed his troops with confidence. During the Battle of Changping, he had to deploy troops using modern strategic thinking while still matching Bai Qi's usual style of warfare, so as not to arouse suspicion.
However, Lin Yu had no desire to replicate Bai Qi's brutal slaughter of surrendered soldiers. He tried to find a way to weaken Zhao without causing excessive bloodshed. When dealing with King Zhaoxiang of Qin and Fan Ju, he also drew on his knowledge of history to tread carefully. Lin Yu knew that every decision he made could change the course of history. He also held a grand ideal: in this age of chaos, unify the realm with as little bloodshed as possible, sparing the people from further suffering in war. As events unfolded, he gradually forged a path of his own on the stage of history, different from Bai Qi's yet just as brilliant, writing a legendary chapter of the Warring States era as a time traveler.
