At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the land is thrown into chaos. Zhao Xiao, a modern special forces soldier, transmigrates to the eve of the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
Captured as a vagrant and forced into military service, he plays dumb and bluffs his way into a camp.
His tactical expertise outclasses the ancients, while his combat skills mow down entire armies.
His silver tongue is unbeatable, his schemes never stop, and he wins battles by outthinking his opponents.
While others train desperately, he lounges around pretending to be a coward, yet boasts astonishing strength.
With just a few words, he talks mighty generals into becoming his brothers, then wipes out the Yellow Turbans in a lightning strike.
Cao Cao steals other men's wives? Zhao Xiao gets there first and saves Cai Yan, a widow about to remarry.
Playing the pig to eat the tiger becomes second nature. The more he plays the fool, the more famous he gets, until even Liu Bei comes asking him to be a strategist.
Lü Bu pursues him for three days, only to be buried in a valley by a landslide he sets off.
At Guandu, one fire leaves Yuan Shao questioning his life choices.
At Red Cliffs, he unleashes a tsunami, rendering Zhou Yu's cunning plans useless.
He blazes through the chaotic age with one hilarious cheat after another, stirring the tides of history.
