About the Game

The Han Dynasty was established by Emperor Gaozu of Han.
He commanded the army to attack Xiongnu in the north, set up Frontier Command Headquarter to defend the borders of Western Regions, and ensured people’s peaceful and prosperous life.
However, the dregs of Xiongnu attacked Western Regions in force when Central Plains was weakening. They occupied Frontier Command Headquarter and enslaved thousands of people nearby...

Now it’s your turn to command Expeditionary Army of Han. Set off from Yumen Pass, collect compatriots’ bodies in sand, and expel invaders of Xiongnu.
This journey is bound to be filled with sacrifices, struggles, desires and discomforts. Which kind of strategy will you choose, endless conquest or political art?
