Chang'an Crisis: Counselor Lin Yu
The prosperous Tang Dynasty was about to fall, and Lin Yu's soul was transformed into a frustrated counselor who was demoted.
He brought modern wisdom and offered good strategies to counter the rebellion, but was scolded as a madman by the powerful. It wasn't until Tongguan was broken and Chang'an was in crisis that this "wild talk" became the only life-saving talisman.
A deadly situation awaits him: villains are plotting against him, and the powerful are constraining him; the rebels are powerful and it is urgent to put down the rebellion; he has no soldiers and no power, and the corruption in his hierarchy and officialdom blocks all avenues. Trust collapsed, doubts were like knives, and when the rebels came to the city, he was attacked from both sides.
Lin Yu used his wisdom to break the situation: he faked defeat and retreated the enemy for ninety miles, robbed food and grass to build a rebel army, and refined the refugees into elites. Every step is calculated with precision and ruthlessness, and every victory is thrilling.
Chang'an was finally saved and the rebellion was finally put down. But in the midst of the celebration, he looked at his hands full of intrigue and suddenly realized - that sincere young man had already become the "winner" he despised on the chessboard of troubled times.
