He was a top military doctor of the twenty-first century. After transmigrating, he found himself the youngest son of Wang Shenzhi, King of Min during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, dismissed as a “simpleton.” It was 915 in Fuzhou. Powerful ministers schemed within, enemies circled outside, and from the start he was confined to a remote courtyard like a cold palace, with a life worth less than grass.
A copy of the Emergency Formulas to Keep Up One's Sleeve and a sprig of sweet wormwood growing by the wall became his first cards in defying fate. With modern medical knowledge, he crushed the era's epidemics, and with an essay on coastal defense, he caught the attention of the King of Min, who ruled a mighty domain.
If the struggle for the Central Plains was bloody and brutal, why not turn his gaze toward the undeveloped blue sea? Crossing the ocean alone, he made rogues his soldiers and deserted islands his game board. In Taiwan and Penghu, he planted high-yield sweet potatoes, smelted sharp steel, and built an invincible fleet that ruled the East China Sea.
From “simple-minded youngest son” to “lord of the seas,” from developing Taiwan and Penghu to sweeping across Fujian and Zhejiang. He would unleash productivity with a modern tax system that assessed taxes by land rather than by household, and end the slaughter of the cold-weapon era with new firearms. When civil war engulfed Fujian in 927, he would lead elite Blackwater Platform troops riding the waves, building on sea power and taking flight on the wings of industry. He would restore the shattered realm and lead the divided land of China into an unprecedented age of maritime exploration!
It's an inexplicable book. It's not very well written, but it doesn't have any serious poisoning points. But there are many poisonous points, so I don't recommend watching it.
