Turning the Tables on the Yellow Turbans

Three Kingdoms + Yellow Turban Rebellion + I Reform the Three Kingdoms

Engineer Lu Yuan wakes to find himself a nameless foot soldier in the Yellow Turban Army. It is 184 AD, and flames of war are spreading across the land. Yet he knows this raging tide is doomed to collapse.

Armed with knowledge from more than a thousand years in the future and an understanding of history yet to come, Lu Yuan refuses to become another corpse in this chaotic age. From narrowly surviving the bloody battle at Guangzong to receiving Zhang Jue’s final charge; from leading the remnants into the Taihang Mountains to farm and train troops, to navigating the warlords’ rivalries while quietly building his strength, he improves farming tools, implements sound governance, and welcomes talented commoners, laying the foundations of his own power one step at a time.

When the eighteen warlords unite to campaign against Dong Zhuo and all eyes turn to Hulao Pass, Lu Yuan has already begun quietly laying his pieces across the Central Plains. Faced with Cao Cao’s ruthless ambition, Liu Bei’s benevolence and righteousness, and the Sun clan’s fierce spirit in Jiangdong, he can only forge a wholly different path with vision beyond his era and an iron fist.

This is a struggle for survival against the will of Heaven, and an epic tale of remaking the land. Watch as Lu Yuan uses the dying embers of the Yellow Turbans to spark a new flame in the chaos of the late Han dynasty... and burn his way to the top.
