Chapter 1 Crossing
On the first day of the sixth month of the fourth year of Yongli, in Quanzhou Mansion, Fujian, outside a small forest that had just ended the battle, a figure suddenly staggered up from the pile of corpses.
The young man was covered in blood, his hair was scattered, he looked at the corpses around him with divergent eyes, his brain was buzzing, countless memory fragments he had never seen before poured into his head, making his brain shut down for a while, standing in place in a daze, and after a long while, he finally came back to his senses.
He crossed!
Traveled to the Yongli period of the Southern Ming Dynasty more than 300 years ago, and the soul pierced into the body of a young man with the same name and surname as him who was killed in battle. And inherited all the memories of this young man.
His name is Su Yan, a native of Quanzhou Prefecture, Fujian, born in Dehua County, which is located in the mountains under the jurisdiction of Quanzhou Prefecture, the only son in the family, his parents were killed by the Qing army, he also joined the anti-Qing rebel army in anger, but was killed by bandits in a battle.
The end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty.
If I remember correctly, the most brutal mass murders in human history, such as the Ten Days in Yangzhou and the Three Massacres in Jiading, have only passed a few years.
On the way south of the Qing army, large-scale massacres continued, and small-scale massacres were countless, and Su Yan's parents died in the robbery of the Qing army.
Thinking of the humiliating history of the late Manchu Qing Dynasty in later generations, coupled with the hatred of killing his father and mother, the hatred of the country and the family were stacked together, and the anger of rebellion against the Manchu Qing in Su Yan's heart burned fiercely.
Although he knew that he could not shake this huge dynasty with his own strength, he still had such a sentence: wear a clear and do not rebel, and a chrysanthemum set of electric drills.
Since God has let him cross over, then he will not be willing to become a submissive person who shaves his hair and is easy to obey.
Just as Su Yan made up his mind to pay attention, a voice suddenly sounded in his ears;
[Host determination detected, "Total War of the Empire" opens.] γ
"Imperial Total War?"
Su Yan's face was happy, he was a die-hard fan of the Total War series before the crossing, but he didn't expect that the system of this game would actually travel with him.

"Open the Starter Pack."
Su Yan, who has read many time-traveling novels, is self-taught, and said to the system with consciousness.
γStarter Pack Opening:

(Note: Currently in a nomadic state, there is no maintenance cost for bonus troops until a county is captured.) οΌ
Looking at the teams that came out of the novice package, Su Yan breathed a long sigh of relief, as long as these teams were summoned, he would have the capital to gain a foothold in this troubled world.
"System, how do I summon an army?"
[Please select a summoned team, which will appear within a radius of 200 meters around the host.] γ
"I'm going to call them all."
Su Yan's voice fell, and all the troops in the system space disappeared, and after a few seconds, a noise suddenly sounded around him, and then a group of soldiers drove out of the small woods.
In a short time, 429 soldiers gathered in front of Su Yan, whether it was cavalry or infantry, they were all tall and tall, wearing red military uniforms, standing tall, and looking at Su Yan with feverish eyes.
He noticed that these people were yellow-skinned soldiers, and they were all Chinese-speaking and not the white-skinned people he feared.
It seemed that he heard Su Yan's heart, and the system took the initiative to explain:
[The characters summoned by the system are summoned according to the template of the host, so there is no need to worry about the alternative thing of having foreigners in the team.] γ
[Every soldier is a staunch anti-Qing activist and is 100% loyal to the host. γ
[In addition, before obtaining a base area, the host does not need to worry about the army's ammunition problem, and the only thing to solve is the problem of food and grass that people eat and horses chew. γ
Hearing this, Su Yan nodded secretly in his heart, and at this moment, the knight led by him turned over and dismounted, walked in front of him, saluted, and said, "General, adjutant Chen Ying leads the 429 soldiers of the whole army to report to you!" β
As soon as he finished speaking, he beckoned, and then saw another soldier holding a set of military uniforms in his hand, walked quickly to the side, and said, "General, my subordinates will change your clothes for you." β
Su Yan didn't shirk it, and simply changed into the general's uniform with the help of the soldier, this general's uniform was as unarmored as the uniforms of the general's guards, which was okay when muskets were popularized in the 18th century, but now it is the East where hot and cold weapons are staggered, and wearing a body on the battlefield is looking for death, and any stray arrow can kill him.
"It seems that when it stabilizes, we will find a way to match the armor of the soldiers." Su Yan thought to himself, "The Manchurian archery is skillful, the effective range of the line infantry is within 200 steps, if you want to shoot the enemy more accurately, you have to get closer, and before the scale grows large, you will be looking for death." β
"However, it is still okay to bully and bully local armed forces with weak combat effectiveness."
Thinking of this, Su Yan just wanted to speak, but the voice of the system in his ears suddenly sounded again:
[A Qing army unit is detected approaching, and a new mission is released:
Objective: Defeat the Qing army Wang Manchu and Han Division.
Reward: Random Class]
"Good!"
Su Yan slapped his thigh, and his eyes lit up: "I'm worried that I didn't have a test object, you sent it to the door yourself!" β
Chen Ying, who was standing on the side, didn't understand what Su Yan was talking about at all, and was looking at him with puzzled eyes, Su Yan ordered at this time: "Adjutant Chen, send volunteer cavalry to investigate, there is a Qing army team coming towards us." β
"Yes!" Chen Ying immediately complied, turned around and ordered the volunteer cavalry armed with only one saber to attack, and the cavalry then broke into pieces, roaring out of the forest and spreading around.
It didn't take long for several cavalrymen to report: "General, a Qing army of more than 800 people is heading north, only one horseman, and the rest are all infantry troops." β
"How's the equipment?" Su Yan asked.
"Most of them are wearing armor and weapons, about 100 people are equipped with bows, arrows, and firearms, and the rest are swords, shields, and spears."
Su Yan nodded, waved his hand to signal him to return to the team, and Chen Ying said on the side: "General, there is a huge disparity between the enemy and our forces, and the enemy army does not know the existence of our army for the time being, and our army can ambush the enemy on the road to minimize the loss." β
"Just do as you say."
