In his previous life, he was an instructor at a top military academy. Once he traveled through time, he became the lowest and most miserable frontier army cannon fodder in the Dayong Dynasty. Here, corruption is the norm, soldiers' blood is drunk up, and human lives are worthless. The comrades around him were either killed by the plague or starved to death. What's even more ridiculous is that there is a group of bureaucrats who are knocking on the bones and sucking out the marrow.
Li Yan discovered that this bullshit dynasty was rotten to the core. Instead of sitting back and waiting, flip the table!
Therefore, he survived from a desperate situation and relied on modern military knowledge to survive step by step in this troubled world. From setting fire to the granary and rushing three hundred warriors at night, to outsmarting Heifeng Village and establishing the first base area. He gathered refugees, improved farm tools, made weapons, and used technology to crush the old era. He established rules with an iron fist, but he also had a heart for all people, and built a ragtag group into an iron-blooded army.
The rough guy around him, Wang Jianlu, grew up from a murderous and reckless man to "Wang Tiebei"; the down-and-out scholar Chen Yuanzhou transformed from an idealist into a far-sighted strategist; the kidnapped girl Su Yunxiu became a calculating minister of finance; and the heroine Lu Qingmei built a world-wide intelligence network for him.
Some people say that he is a hero in troubled times, while others say that he is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness. No matter what, Li Yan just wants to tell everyone - I have the final say in this world!
Let's see how Li Yan grew up from a small soldier in the frontier army to the founding emperor of the country, creating peace for all ages amidst laughter and passion!
