A "rebel" chat group fell from the sky. Every member was a ruthless fighter opposing the imperial court. They exchanged tips on rebellion every day, helped one another, and shared one goal: overthrow the dynasty as soon as possible and send the emperor to his grave!
[Chat group member Li Shimin, a young man from Jinyang, started a group livestream: Let me show you all my first battle against the Sui!]
[Chat group member Liu Yu, a young general of the Northern Army, started a group poll: After six emperors, which emperor should I start killing first?]
[Chat group member Zhu Di, Prince of Yan, uploaded ten blueprints for his latest Divine Machine Battalion designs. These are essential for the Jingnan Campaign!]
[Chat group member Yang Miaozhen, the pear-blossom spear goddess, posted a group wish: I want to defeat the Jin and destroy the Song, become the founding empress, and establish a powerful Han dynasty!]
[Chat group member Liu E shared a selfie wearing the emperor's ceremonial crown: The ministers all say I'm scheming because I wear the imperial robes. In that case, I might as well sit on the throne.]
[Chat group member Chen Qian enabled group location sharing: We're about to breach the Taicheng fortress. Why let Hou Jing take this beautiful land? I might as well take charge myself and restore peace and prosperity!]
[Chat group member Li Zicheng invited you to join a group mission: The Battle of Shanhai Pass. Drive out the barbarians, march deep into Liaodong, and scourge the land!]
[Chat group member Fu Jian shared an image: The wind is restless tonight at Yunlong Gate~]
[Chat group member Gao Changgong uploaded a performance of The Qi Emperor's Battle Formation Music: It's time to storm the palace, kill Gao Wei, and take the throne!]
The group members: Heh, what rebels?
We're righteous forces raising a just army and a righteous banner, pleading for the people and bringing peace for generations to come!
The flames of war rise in a time of chaos, and the people suffer. We must rebel. We must fight!
Note:
The word "rebel" is in quotation marks because their rebellion puts them in opposition to the ruling court's claim to legitimacy at the time. For instance, Li Shimin's rebellion against the Sui and Liu Yu's uprising in Jingkou do not mean that history considers them rebels.
Some characters who weren't emperors to begin with will also ascend the throne, such as Liu E, Yang Miaozhen, and Gao Changgong.
This is simply a story about him or her founding a new dynasty.
