Chen Ci, a graduate student in the Department of History, woke up and became the second son of a small powerful man from the Liaodong border county of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
This is the third year of Guanghe, and Xianbei cavalry are raiding every year. In four years, the Yellow Turbans will rise, and in twenty years, the world will be in chaos.
There is no system, no golden fingers, only the historical knowledge in the mind, and a heart unwilling to follow the crowd.
When Xianbei troops approached the city, he used a trick of suspicion to force the spies back and secure Wubao;
With refugees everywhere, he used modern agriculture to improve farm tools and turn wasteland into granaries;
In the Yellow Turban Fengyan, he emerged under Lu Zhi's tent and fought side by side with the young Guan Yu and Zhang Fei;
The world was in chaos, and he used a county to deal with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Liu Bei, accumulating strength in the cracks.
He doesn't want to be king and dominate, he just wants to let more people survive in this chaotic world of cannibalism.
But when he discovered that the clans only cared about their own interests, the lives of the people were like straw, and the Han Dynasty was destined to overthrow - he knew that he had to stand up.
Improving farm tools, training new troops, reforming the tax system, opening courses to recruit scholars...
He used methods beyond the times to gradually shake up the old order and rebuild a new foundation.
He cooked wine with Cao Cao and discussed heroes, chatted about common people while riding horses with Liu Bei, and hid his skills in banquets with Yuan Shao.
They are friends, enemies, fellow travelers, and ultimately rivals.
When the war drums sound in Guandu, how will he choose?
When the powerful family counterattacks and old friends become enemies, can he hold on to the light in his heart?
This is a story about an ordinary person who spent his whole life setting the storm for the times.
History is not a stage for heroes, but a torrent of millions of people.
And he wanted to be that dam.
