Lin Yan, a man from science and engineering, died suddenly, and his soul traveled to the border of Wuyue and Wuyue in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. He became Shi Gandang, an idiot soldier who was trapped in a military camp after his uncle paid off his debts. At that time, there were chaotic wars, refugees of all ethnic groups were scattered, and human lives were like grass. He brought his knowledge of science and engineering, and the strategies of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" to inherit the foundation of the original leader's guidance, and took "Gou Dao" as his survival criterion, hiding his clumsiness and forbearance, secretly tempering his body and refining actual combat killing skills.
He relied on Liu Xiu's luck to survive a desperate situation, and he knew how to be inclusive. He discovered talents from refugees of various ethnic groups, gathered Khitan cavalry, Dangxiang archers, Baiyue water warfare masters, etc., Quietly built a multi-service coordinated elite system, and also broke away from the convention to form a female soldier team. Along the way, he promoted the distribution of farmland to each household, encouraged business, supported Taoism, and improved weapons and production tools with scientific and engineering knowledge. From a deserter in the military camp to the leader of a valley stronghold, he took advantage of the situation to expand and made progress step by step.
During the counterattack, he met Lin Wanqing, Qing He and other strange women from various ethnic groups. They either fought side by side or stabilized the rear, becoming his help in the struggle for hegemony. Shi Gandang was pragmatic and valued his feelings, taking care of favors and trade-offs, and never indulged in beauty.
He competed with historical heroes such as Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin, and faced off against the Khitan cavalry. He used the coordination of multiple arms and Sun Tzu's art of war as his strategy. He went from passive survival to active hegemony in troubled times, and finally defeated all forces, unified the country, and established a new dynasty. He abolished the privileges of the gentry, promoted ethnic equality, promoted the deep integration of all ethnic groups, created a multi-ethnic dynasty with stable people's livelihood, and completed the ultimate counterattack from a leading soldier to the founding emperor.
