What would you do if you traveled through time and became a wise minister of Wu and Yue who was destined to "return to the Song Dynasty"?
Shuiqiu Zhaoqian knows everything:
Knowing that Qian Liu was about to become king, and knowing that Zhu Wen was about to usurp the Tang Dynasty,
Knowing that in the next hundred years, the Central Plains will rotate through five dynasties,
The South will split into ten countries,
He also knew that the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun was about to fall - it would take four hundred years for that land to return to the Han family.
But he refused to accept his fate.
From the captain of Qiantang County to the leader of Wuyue, he spent forty years to play a big game of chess:
Improved agricultural tools doubled Jiangnan's granary,
Establish a navy to control the East China Sea waterways,
Use shipping to support the Northern Expedition,
Use gunpowder to blast open the separatist city walls.
When his dragon flag was planted on the Youzhou city tower,
The Khitan people trembled for the first time——
This small southeastern country that should have surrendered to Bianliang,
It actually became an empire that ended the troubled times and unified the world.
