(I bring land reform to the wasteland, rising from three refugees to ruler of all under heaven.)
A meteor fell, the world collapsed, and a century of war ravaged the land. China sank into chaos and became a distinctly Chinese wasteland.
The shackles of the Sequence system froze society in place. The orthodox Sequences were passed down through generations, keeping their holders high above the common people. Refugees, beggars, and others on unorthodox paths could never rise above Sequence 7. They were slaves for life, at the mercy of anyone who wished to exploit them.
When Jiang Tian opened his eyes, he awoke amid a pile of corpses, transformed into the lowliest Sequence 9 refugee in the flood-stricken Huai Bei region.
Ahead, warlord scorched-earth squads slaughtered people with their blades. Behind, landlords' militias closed in. Around him were hundreds of fellow refugees, struggling to survive and on the verge of despair.
No one knew that inside the mind of this seemingly frail young man lay the wisdom of thousands of years of history, along with the people's wildfire of revolution.
He laid down three unbreakable rules: never rob the people, never kill the innocent, and never abandon a single comrade.
He secured a foothold in an abandoned military stockade, using traps and fire attacks to repel the landlords' forces. He distributed land to those who worked it, giving refugees a home for the first time.
He trained a fearsome army using modern military organization, crushed warlord encirclements and royal intervention through people's war, and spread the call for “liberation” throughout the wasteland of China.
He shattered the unchanging Sequence laws that had held for millions of years, climbing step by step from a despised Sequence 9 refugee along a path of advancement for the downtrodden. He created his own unique “Liberator” Sequence and rose to the very peak.
From a lone soul among the dead to Marshal Jiang, leader of countless refugees;
from a humble camp among the reeds on a riverbank to a Liberation Federation with red flags flying across China.
In this chaotic age, are kings, nobles, generals, and ministers born to rule?
It's good to watch, although it's a bit short, but a good story
I think it's pretty good. The themes are novel, cultivation, and hegemony.
