A modern corporate drone dies suddenly and transmigrates as Jia Wu, an illegitimate son from a branch of the Rongguo House in the Red Chamber. It is the third year of the Great Han's Emperor Wenwu era. The Retired Emperor has sidelined the imperial authority, and a hundred thousand Xiongnu cavalry are launching a surprise attack on Yanmen Pass. Jia Wu is trapped in a deadly predicament on the frontier.
Blessed with peerless physical abilities after a fusion, he turns the tide amid mountains of corpses and rivers of blood. He raids the Xiongnu camp alone at night and burns the entire army's provisions, shaking the crisis on the border with just two thousand battered soldiers. He cuts through enemy ranks alone with a spear in hand.
He breaks free of the Jia family's doomed fate, rising step by step through bloody battles and court intrigue. Defying fate, he takes command of the Great Han empire.
