Chen Jing unexpectedly transmigrates into an alternate ancient world torn apart by war, becoming a refugee fleeing south. With no identity, status, power, or influence, he should have been just another frozen corpse by the roadside. Yet he struggles onward, fighting to survive and secure city residency in the capital as he claws his way up from the bottom of society...
Gradually, Chen Jing realizes that this world will not let a nobody like him scrape by. He begins studying under masters, recruiting soldiers, bringing in wise advisers and worthy ministers, winning over fierce generals and hardened troops, drilling a new army, and enacting new policies.
He launches campaigns north into the grasslands and west into Liangzhou... forging his own road to prosperity, unifying the realm, ascending the throne, and taking command of the world!
