Synopsis

[War + Political Intrigue + Passion + The Jianghu]

Li Xi transmigrates into the chaotic era of the Great Yu, and finds himself in hell mode from the start: he’s the lowest-ranking groom in the army, with the ravenous Hu cavalry eyeing the land from beyond and corrupt officials preying on the common people all around him.

There’s no System chiming in, and no divine skill mastered overnight.

Faced with a hopeless situation, Li Xi believes in one thing: success depends on human effort, and every move must be calculated without flaw!

Starting with nothing? He devises ingenious schemes within schemes.

A road ahead full of thorns? He stockpiles provisions, shelters refugees, and steadily wins people over.

From a low-ranking soldier to a force that shakes the court, from being trampled underfoot to reaching the pinnacle of power.

Watch as he defies fate and forges an enduring legend, relying not on a cheat powered by innate talent, but solely on strategy and a calculating mind!
