Dragon Kingdom Fourth Empire

In 1892 AD, Wu Ci, a modern military history researcher, accidentally traveled through time and his soul possessed the body of "Feng Yuxiang", a low-level officer of the New Army in the late Qing Dynasty. At this time, he was not the all-powerful general of later generations, but a fringe figure who angered his superiors because of his outspoken advice and was pushed to the Baoding training department, and who might be dismissed from his post and investigated at any time. **(Core dilemma: humble status + environmental hostility)** What's even more fatal is that the memory fragments belonging to "Feng Yuxiang" in his mind tell him that if there is no improvement within three months, he will be thrown into prison for the unfounded crime of "embarrassing military pay", and his family will also be implicated and completely ruined. **(Countdown Threat + Destiny Chip)** **(Core conflict construction: Impossible mission + dilemma)** The first "impossible mission" Wu Ci faced was to save the first pot of gold, raise the first armed force that was completely under his command, and find the fulcrum to move the wheel of history with a humble body in one year, caught between the decadent late Qing system and the covetous powers. He must make a choice between "following the historical trajectory and waiting for the opportunity" and "taking radical risks and detonating the revolution in advance." If he chooses the former, he may be able to live safely until 1911, but by then the general trend of the world will have been decided. At most, he will become a warlord and unable to realize the blueprint in his heart of "reshaping China and striving for world domination"; if he chooses the latter, he will immediately become a thorn in the side of the Qing court, the old bureaucracy, local powerful people and even the great powers in China, and every step will be like walking on thin ice.
