I am currently researching for an SI story where the protagonist wakes up in the body of one of the leaders of White Lotus Rebellion, likely Wang Cong'er, probably around the year 1796. What would she need to know/do in order for the rebellion to succeed? Bonus points if she can become Empress and rule in her own name. OTL she is killed in 1797
Once she has power the road ahead towards industrialization and even some democratic development seems clear enough, though still challenging enough to be interesting. Its getting there that's difficult.
Being the leader of a peasant rebellion seems to be one of the cases where uptime knowledge would be less useful. There is no access to an industrial base to 'invent' new technology. There are no governmental changes that can be implemented. Are there even military tactics that might be helpful?
Alternatively, how could the White Lotus rebels win OTL?
