Northern Song: Starting as a Lowly Soldier of Fang La

In the second year of the Xuanhe era, Cai Jing and Tong Guan held power. Seeking prestige, they forcibly mobilized 200,000 imperial troops to launch a northern campaign against the Liao Dynasty.

Taxes in Jiangnan were crushing, and the people could barely make a living. Fang La raised an army in rebellion, seizing six prefectures and fifty-four counties within a few months.

The imperial army returned to suppress the revolt, and an age of chaos began.

Li Jing, a modern man, woke up one day as a foot soldier in Fang La's rebel army.

Knowing Fang La was doomed to fail, all he wanted was to live an ordinary life.

So he switched sides, guided the army, entered Dongjing, and ingratiated himself with the powerful, thinking he could live in peace.

Who could have guessed that fate would throw him onto the northern campaign battlefield once more?

This time, he would not run away.

Because the age of chaos had arrived.
