Overnight, he transmigrates and becomes Su Changqing, the Northern Wilderness King of Great Xia. Who could have guessed he would be all alone, without a single soldier or general? The Northern Wilderness commander pays lip service to him while playing both sides between the Northern Wilderness and the Northern Barbarians. He lets tens of thousands of barbarian troops cross the border and besiege the city, leaving the situation on the brink of collapse. How can he turn things around? No need to worry! Catch them off guard and strike where they least expect it. First, slaughter tens of thousands of barbarian troops to secure a foothold, then go back and raid the Northern Wilderness commander's home!!!
Winter is coming. The people have barely enough to eat and only rags to wear. They won't survive the season. Su Changqing says, "Assemble the troops. I hear Yunzhou borrowed nearly a million shi of grain from the Northern Wilderness after last year's floods. Let's go collect the debt." He wants to build an iron cavalry for the Northern Wilderness, but has no warhorses. What should he do? Su Changqing says, "No problem. We'll go raid the Northern Barbarians and bring back some horses while we're at it."
As he gradually takes control of the north and commands a mighty army, changing the balance of power at the Great Xia court, some people grow uneasy. They hire the top assassins from the world's rankings at great expense to come and kill him...
