In the third year of Jian'an, Pengcheng has fallen, and the defeated forces have retreated to Xiapi.
When he opens his eyes, he is Lü Bu, surrounded by enemies on all sides as his army collapses.
His path to a comeback begins in utter desperation.
Drawing on modern thinking and the courage of a god of war, Lü Bu first rallies the scattered troops, ambushes Cao Cao's army, then feigns defeat and deals Xiahou Dun a crushing blow.
He later fakes his death at Xiapi, luring Chen Deng and his father into an attack and capturing them both.
Facing Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei beneath the city walls, he drives Zhang Fei back with a single strike of his halberd, showing once more the courage he displayed at Hulao Pass when he fought all three at once, and forcing Cao Cao's army to retreat thirty li.
Over the following years, he sweeps across the Central Plains, stabs Cao Cao in the back amid the flames of Guandu, seizes Ji Province, and ultimately becomes a regional warlord.
But the realm is still not unified. Sun Quan eyes him hungrily from Jiangdong, Ma Chao's cavalry thunders in Liangzhou, and Liu Zhang of Yizhou is weak and ripe for the taking.
Standing atop the walls of Ji Province, Lü Bu gazes at the Fangtian Halberd in his hand and smiles faintly.
In this life, he wants more than hegemony. He wants the entire realm.
Not bad 😌 Not bad at all, it's one of the better books about Lü Bu.

This is written with great strategy.
