In the last three years of the Han Dynasty, the world was out of order. Although the Yellow Turbans were defeated, the rogue bandits remained.
Chen An traveled through time and became a Yellow Turban Commander, surrounded by dozens of hungry and frightened defeated soldiers. Outside, he was squeezed by layers of officials, soldiers, powerful men, and traditional commanders.
He can't change the times, he can only change how these dozens of people live in front of him:
Don't burn villages, don't kill indiscriminately, don't plunder them all—replace looting with organization, replace fleeing with farming, replace lynching with public trials, and change the "Yellow Turban" from a banner of peace to a rule that can allow the people to breathe.
There are no cheats, just plow pulling, division of labor, work-for-relief and a series of unfunny verbal battles.
Trade with Wubao in exchange for iron, collect ruthless soldiers at the mine, persuade the people to be demoted in front of the battle, and write those few rules that everyone can understand in the night wind.
Zhang Yan will come, county soldiers will come, and waves of refugees will come - Chen An doesn't want to be king, he just wants to prove in the cracks of the late Han Dynasty that people in troubled times may not only be robbers.
