In the troubled times, Shu Fu and fellow villager Wang Bao were deceived into joining the army and sent to Ya Nao Ke Pass on the border. The two men, one thin and one fat, frequently got into trouble in the kitchen when they first entered the military camp. Fortunately, Chef Zhang, a fellow countryman, took care of them everywhere. The clever Shu Fu uses clever tricks to improve food, take care of logistics, and practice martial arts with Wang Bao in his spare time. As war breaks out at the border, the two join the army based on their courage and skill, and accumulate military merit step by step from ordinary soldiers. Shu Fu was good at strategy, and Wang Bao bravely championed the three armies. With the support of his fellow countryman Zhang Fugui, he gradually came to power, using Ya Nao Ke Pass as the basis to recruit troops, collect grain, and segregate one side. After that, they joined forces vertically and horizontally, conquered the east and west, wiped out all the princes, and unified the world after years of fierce battles. The former cook on the stove finally ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, and joined hands with a group of old friends to create a peaceful and prosperous era, composing a legend of grassroots counterattack.
