Lu Yu, a graduate student of history, transmigrates to the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He gives himself the courtesy name Boda and uses his foresight to stir up the chaos of the age. He presents the strategy of "serving the Son of Heaven" and establishes a system of land reclamation to strengthen the army, helping the Cao clan rise to supremacy. As the flames of Red Cliffs cast their glow across the Yangtze and the Nine Ranks system reshapes the court, this strategist from the future ultimately uses modern wisdom to help Cao Cao end the age of chaos.
