Great Tang: Inscribe a Monument on the Ganges, and Trespassers Die

Five thousand rebels hunted down sixteen men. The ceremonial staff was trampled underfoot, and the deputy envoy’s head was raised on a spear. Wang Xuance, a modern engineer, had just activated his System, but his beginner’s gift was only three Thunderclap Bombs. He blasted a path through the enemy, crossed the snowy plains with seven horsemen, and borrowed troops alone. In three months, he wiped out an entire kingdom. But that was only the beginning. On the banks of the Ganges, he erected a boundary marker declaring, “This is the western frontier of Great Tang. Anyone who crosses it dies.” Everything within ten li became Tang territory. A thousand years later, a joint Chinese-Indian archaeological expedition was broadcast live around the world. When the inscription was finally cleared, the hand holding the brush froze: “This monument and this land both belong to Great Tang. A thousand years from now, when sons of Han see this gold leaf, they will see our land.” Infrastructure building, a System, and overwhelming technological superiority: in ancient times, he carved the border into stone; in the modern era, they dug up the monument in a hard-core archaeological expedition. Destroying a kingdom single-handedly was just an appetizer. Thirteen hundred years after his death, this land still bears the name Tang!
