Synopsis

In the chaotic final years of the Qing dynasty, foreign powers circle hungrily as gunfire and smoke engulf the Black Soil region. A young man from the modern era accidentally transmigrates into a time when his own ancestor is still a bandit. He plans to keep his head down and survive, only to discover that this ancestor is a bandit chief who soon gets recruited into the government as a security corps captain. In this troubled age, a band of outlaws becomes the starting point of his rise to power.

Gunfire tears apart the old order, and an iron will forges a new one. Facing Russian encroachment, rampant bandits, and a corrupt government, he uses his exceptional courage and modern knowledge to recruit troops, secretly procure guns, and maneuver among the foreign powers, advancing one careful step at a time. Mountain bandits, outlaw gangs, security forces, local militias, foreign merchants, rifles and cannons: every resource is his to command!

From making his mark in Heishi Town to marching on Heihe, he is both a warlord of the chaotic age and a force capable of reshaping the world. The shackles of the old era are about to be broken, and a new power is raising its banner!
