Take the Village Boy to Conquer the World

Cao Zhen, a young man from Qiao County, was exiled from his family when he was ten years old. He witnessed with his own eyes the tragic situation of people exchanging their children for food in troubled times, and he swore to "let the people of the world live well." From the cowherd boy to the county official, from the northern Luoyang captain to the Dunqiu county magistrate, he punished rape and eliminated evil under the five-color stick, and narrowly escaped death on the bloody battlefield. Incorporating the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, planting crops in Yanzhou to support the people, defeating the weak in the battle of Guandu, and regrouping after the defeat in Chibi - it took him thirty years to go from nothing to dominating the world. This is not a simple history of struggle for hegemony, but an epic struggle of idealists. There is the brotherhood of life and death, the strategic wisdom of strategizing, the bloody battlefields of iron-blooded battles, and the innocent heart of "the people are the most important, and the country is second". When Cao Zhen stood at the top of Luoyang City, looking at the lights of thousands of families and saying to his brothers, "The world is at peace," you will understand: the real hero is not how many enemies he has conquered, but how many people he has made live like a human being.
