Rise to Kingship in a Chaotic Age, Conquer the World as a Foot Soldier

In the final years of the Great Zhao dynasty, the Central Plains are engulfed in flames of war.

Lu Zheng, a special forces soldier, wakes up as a saber-wielding defender on the city wall.

The city gates are breached. The imperial troops flee first, then the rebels pour in, cutting people down in the streets.

He has no one to rely on, only a deadly instinct for the battlefield.

If he wants to survive, he will have to fight his own way out.

A few dozen battered soldiers, half a sack of grain, and enemies on every side.

Some want to steal his credit, some want to swallow up his squad, and others have put a bounty on the physician at his side, dead or alive.

Lu Zheng has just one rule: “Is being afraid going to help? Follow me!”

He refuses to swallow his anger or accept humiliation. He strikes back on the spot.

From hand-to-hand combat to military strategy, he cuts down enemy after enemy.

From an unknown nobody, he takes one step at a time toward ruling the realm.
