The Rise of Jingyan: A Transmigrated Young Emperor Sweeps Across the Great Yuan

Lin’an has fallen, and the Great Song Dynasty stands on the brink of ruin. Nine-year-old ruler Zhao Shi retreats to Fuzhou, while voices calling for peace fill the court and the Mongol Yuan cavalry presses ever closer. At this critical moment, he makes decisive plans: establishing the Divine Machinery Bureau to develop firearms and train a new kind of army; standing firm against the surrender faction; uniting loyal ministers such as Wen Tianxiang, Zhang Shijie, and Lu Xiufu; comforting refugees, reclaiming wasteland, and stockpiling grain to secure a foothold in Fujian. At the Battle of the Min River, thunderclap bombs devastate the Yuan army. In a bloody battle at Quzhou, he opens the passage between Fujian and Zhejiang, and rebel forces across Jiangnan flock to his cause. Even after these great victories, the crisis is far from over. Yuan general Arakhan gathers a massive force for a counterattack while also preparing a naval force to launch a surprise attack across the sea on Fuzhou, hoping to relieve the pressure by striking elsewhere. The fighting on land has barely ceased, and flames of war are about to rise at sea. With a small corner of Fujian as his base, the young ruler suppresses treacherous officials at home and stands against the Mongol Yuan army that swept across Europe and Asia. Perhaps the tragedy of Yashan can still be rewritten.
