"Mother, what did you say? My maternal uncle is Zhang Fei? My paternal uncle is Huang Zhong? ... Why have you never told me all these years?"
The protagonist, Huang Qian, transmigrates to the late Eastern Han dynasty with an artificial intelligence. Starting with a single county, he rises to power with overwhelming force, transforming people's livelihoods, commerce, and the military. With the unstoppable momentum of history, he crushes demons and villains as he speeds down the road of infrastructure development.
He commands the world's waterways to bring peace to all under heaven, and seizes wealth from every direction to strengthen his own power.
He slays heroes to establish his might throughout the realm, and gathers outstanding generals and ministers to enshrine their names in the Star Pavilion.
"Loyal ministers, treacherous ministers? Ha ha ha... Remember! In an emperor's eyes, there are only capable and dedicated officials. When the people prosper, the nation flourishes. When officials grow rich, the nation is doomed to decline."
"Father, rest assured. I, Huang Xu, will protect Brother Qian."
"Soldiers, this is the Monument to the Fallen Heroes. It embodies the souls of countless soldiers who have died. On this day every year, I have the people under my rule burn incense and pay tribute to the fallen, so their great deeds will be remembered. It is only because our three armies have fought bravely and given their lives that the people of Yuzhou can live in peace."
"When foreign enemies invade, what should we do?"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
