Liu Chuan, a devoted military enthusiast, finds himself transported to a parallel world where history has taken a dramatic turn—the Age of Exploration began two centuries earlier.

In this timeline, the German Empire has already achieved unification and stands as the dominant power in Europe. Meanwhile, in the distant East, the Qing Emperor has just overthrown the regent Oboi. Amid this era of global upheaval, Liu Chuan is reborn as the fourth son of Kaiser Wilhelm II. Initially, he plans to coast through life, indulging in comfort and waiting for the empire’s eventual decline. However, fate intervenes.

When unexpected tragedies befall Wilhelm II and the Crown Prince, the throne suddenly becomes within Liu Chuan’s grasp. Driven by a desire to control his destiny—and the empire’s future—he overcomes fierce competition from his brothers to claim the crown as Wilhelm III.

Over the next decade, Wilhelm III works tirelessly to strengthen his empire. When war erupts, the German Empire under his command achieves unprecedented feats: toppling France, dismantling Russia, crushing the British Empire, overwhelming the United States, and subjugating Japan.

As the dust settles, the German Empire stands as the unrivaled global superpower, and Liu Chuan is immortalized in history as Wilhelm the Great.

This thrilling alternate history novel is a tale of ambition, strategy, and a modern man’s rise to imperial greatness.
