Five Years of Jian'an

Since the Shi Changshi Rebellion in the sixth year of Zhongping, the Han Dynasty has collapsed and traitors have usurped the government. It has been sixteen years. During this period, wars were raging in the Central Plains. Heroes from all walks of life took turns to fight. The war was endless.
