During the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, Lu Zheng, the commander of Jinyiwei, died unexpectedly, and the soul of modern industrial designer Lin Mu traveled through time.
At the beginning of the game, he was arrested by Dongchang and sent to prison on the charge of "privately creating strange skills with the intention of treason."
But they didn't know that this new mainlander had the entire knowledge base of the Industrial Revolution in his mind.
Steam engines, flintlock muskets, blast furnace steelmaking, railway laying... When the Ming Dynasty was still fighting with cold weapons, Lu Zheng had already equipped all members of the Jinyi Guard with flintlock muskets and grenades.
When the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River were still hoarding grain and raising prices, Lu Zheng directly built an official road connecting the north and the south with cement concrete.
Yan Song and his son wanted his life, so Lu Zheng took out his breech-loaded rifled gun and aimed it at the gate of Yan's mansion.
When the Japanese pirates invaded, Lu Zheng led three thousand musketeers of Jin Yiwei and used three strikes to make the Japanese pirates doubt their lives.
The Mongolian cavalry moved south, and Lu Zheng directly sent hot-air balloons to bomb the brigade, dropping explosive packets denser than hailstones.
Emperor Jiajing was obsessed with alchemy, and Lu Zheng showed him the "Western Self-Ringing Bell": "Your Majesty, this is the correct way to open immortality."
When everyone thought Lu Zheng was going to rebel, he said calmly: "I don't want to be emperor, I want to make Ming Dynasty the first industrial country in the world."
From the commander of the Jin Yiwei to the industrial pioneer, from the powerful official of the Ming Dynasty to the world hegemon.
Driven by him, the Ming Empire launched a vigorous industrial revolution.
Amid the roar of steam engines, a new era has arrived!
