About This Novel

In the first year of Chongzhen, there was a severe drought in northern Shaanxi, and people ate each other. Lin Fan crawled out from the pile of hungry corpses and was saved by a taciturn postman with half a piece of mixed-noodle bun. The postman's name was Li Zicheng. Later, he refined the first piece of steel, built the first cannon, and brought out the first new army. But what he wanted to do was never just help Li Zicheng win a few battles. Huang Taiji's Eight Banners cavalry was knocking towards the capital, Yuan Chonghuan's blood had not yet cooled down, Chongzhen kowtowed in the Wenhua Hall to pray for rain, Sun Chengzong stood at Lengkou Pass looking at the broken side wall, Xu Guangqi tried to plant the first sweet potato thousands of miles away... This is a group portrait of an era. Everyone is struggling, and no one knows the outcome. The fire burned all night. Before dawn, he squatted beside the embers and added a new piece of firewood. He is an ember and a spark.
