Lin Yan, a military engineer, traveled to Zhuojun in the first year of Zhongping.
There is no system, no golden fingers, only a hammer and a head full of forging blueprints.
He originally wanted to make a living, but as soon as he entered the city, he bumped into Liu Bei who was still weaving a straw mat.
Make up a sword to amaze Guan Yu; modify a crossbow to intimidate Zhang Fei; make a standard short spear to form a square formation to repel black bandits; engrave the divisions on Wangshan to make the old crossbow accurate at fifty steps.
Starting from a rusty plowshare, he made weapons for Liu Bei, practiced local bravery, defeated the Yellow Turban, and resisted the powerful.
Others rely on strategy and force to compete in the world, but Lin Yan relies on fire, hammers, and a book full of future weapons - scale armor, three-edged spears, repeating crossbows, things that have not been seen in this era.
"Mr. Xuande, you are in charge of fighting, and I am in charge of forging iron."
From Zhuojun to Anxi, from rural warriors to county soldiers, this is the story of military craftsmen assisting Liu Bei in recasting Han Zuo.
