The First Emperor Returns: Reclaiming the Realm

The soul of Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng, transmigrated into the Jingkang Catastrophe and possessed the cowardly Prince Kang, Zhao Gou, as he fled south. Amid a shattered realm, ministers afraid to fight, and Jin forces watching like hawks, the soul of an emperor from a thousand years ago awoke within the young prince. From the small city of Xuyi to the bloody battle at Yangzhou, he reorganized the army with an iron fist, employed cunning strategies, and wielded common folk as his blade. This was not Zhao Gou’s Southern Song. This was Qin Shi Huang’s Jiangnan. Witness how the greatest emperor of the ages played his pieces in the face of utter despair, using the methods of the Qin dynasty to bring this broken realm to heel.
