The First-Rank Power Minister

The Later Jin cavalry sweeps south, while the Wen dynasty esteems scholarship and suppresses military affairs. Yuan-Mongol, Later Jin, and Chu barbarian forces threaten the borders, while corruption, tyranny, and the oppression of the people fester within. Beset by troubles at home and abroad, the dynasty is rotten and on the verge of collapse, with the signs of national destruction and extinction plain to see. Yang Jiye unexpectedly arrives in the Wen dynasty, and from then on:

Watch Yang Jiye pursue the most radical path of reform, strengthening the army and expanding military power, bringing imperial authority to the villages, and making the nation prosperous and the people secure. He rises to become a powerful chancellor, and the Huaxia people ascend to the pinnacle of the world.

Huaxia will not invade other lands. The Yuan-Mongols' vast territory, the Later Jin's fertile lands, and the tiny island nation of Japan can all become vassal states of Huaxia!
