Chen Mo, a student of modern history, accidentally traveled to the late Eastern Han Dynasty and became a low-level clerk under Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian. Facing the desperate situation where Cao Cao was about to massacre Xuzhou, he had neither force nor troops. The only way to survive was to use information gaps and psychology to instigate Liu Bei, the future monarch who was famous for his "benevolence and righteousness" but had hidden ambitions, to turn against him and replace Tao Qian. From then on, Chen Mo became the deepest "shadow mastermind" of Liu Bei's camp. With his insights beyond the times, he guided the Shu Han towards a completely different path to hegemony.
