Yang Chen, a graduate student in the Department of Modern History, traveled back in time to the troubled times of the Southern and Northern Dynasties and became a small soldier under the command of the Jiedushi envoy of a border town.
When he woke up, Jiedushi had been hacked to death by rebel soldiers. But he soon discovered that this was no ordinary mutiny - the leaders were middle- and high-level officers in the army: Sima, Jianjun, and the commander of each battalion. They killed Jiedushi, but they didn't dare to take the position themselves, because whoever took the position might be hacked to death next.
So, they pushed out Yang Chen, the little soldier with the least background and the best control.
"Yang Chen, from now on, you are the military governor."
Yang Chen looked at the smiling faces of the officers and instantly understood: he was a scapegoat. If he can't get military pay, the soldiers will chop him down; if he can't stop the enemy, the enemy will kill him; and those behind him who "recommended" him are always ready to hand him over to take the blame when he fails.
There are only three brothers around him who also come from the lowest level: a naive veteran, a shrewd scout, and a down-and-out scholar.
Three days, only three days to collect military pay. Otherwise, he will be the next one to be hacked to death.
