Transmigrating into the body of a poisoned prince exiled from the capital, Xiao Che opens his eyes to find a Northern Di curved saber at his throat. Yunmo City has fallen, its commander has betrayed them, and the crown prince's faction in the capital is waiting for him to “die in an accident.”
At the brink of despair, the “Chinese Heroes Summoning System” binds itself to him with a thunderous announcement!
“Ding! First summon successful: Qi Jiguang has arrived with the first recruits of his Yiwu troops. The Mandarin Duck Formation can defeat a thousand cavalrymen!”
When wolf-brush spears hook and break the Northern Di horses' legs, when white-clad light cavalry rides two hundred miles in three days (Chen Qingzhi: Your Highness, 700 men are enough to burn their provisions), and when Han Xin traces the route of “crossing the Chencang in secret” on a sand table, Xiao Che suddenly realizes that the chaos of this parallel world is a stage made just for China's famed generals!
He executes traitorous commanders and recovers the northern frontier, building the Flame Guard Army to sweep across the realm, with the Qi Family Army as its backbone and the Beiwei Army as its spearhead.
He contends with the crown prince and pacifies Nanzhao, entrusting Yue Fei with the capital region and Li Jing with the southern frontier, carving out a path to the throne amid the struggle for succession.
Bai Qi waters his horses in the vast northern sea, while Huo Qubing seals his name on Mount Langjuxu. Foreign cavalry are trampled beneath their feet, and the warning “Those who invade Yan will be punished, no matter how far away” resounds across the eight corners of the world!
It is only when Wu Qi is summoned to enact reforms that Xiao Che realizes the System is far more than a mere “general-summoning tool.” It holds the secret behind a rupture in Chinese civilization, and the road before him is one that leads from a prince on the brink of death to a destined ruler who will summon the heroes of the ages and restore a golden age!
