Three Kingdoms: From Liu Yao’s Youngest Son to Ruler of All Under Heaven

Transmigrating to the first year of Xingping, Liu Ji becomes the eldest legitimate son of Liu Yao, Governor of Yangzhou. At this time, Sun Ce is about to cross the river, Yuan Shu is eyeing Huainan, and the warlords of Jiangdong each rule their own territory. Armed with knowledge of the future, Liu Ji corrects his father’s shortcomings and abandons empty prestige in favor of practical governance. He recruits civil officials and fierce generals, offers amnesty to river bandits and the Shanyue tribes, and takes in the remnants of the Yellow Turbans north of the Yangtze. Using the court’s authority, he brings Wang Lang and Zhu Hao into his service, destroys Yan Baihu and Zha Rong, traps Sun Ce in a corner of Jiangdong, and wears down the usurping Yuan Shu. Then, taking advantage of the turmoil in Xuzhou, he advances north and annexes the region. With the lands between the Yangtze and Huai rivers as his foundation, he trains troops, stockpiles grain, and reforms the administration. From then on, he commands Jiangdong’s elite forces, sets his sights on the Central Plains, confronts Cao Cao head-on, and sweeps aside the warlords in the name of the Han dynasty, beginning the road to unifying the realm!
