About This Novel
This book mainly describes the peasant war in the late Ming Dynasty, but also describes the national wars within China between the Ming and Qing Dynasties and between the Qing Dynasty and the Shun Dynasty. It depicts representatives of different classes and pictures of their lives, as well as the intricate and contradictory relationships between various classes and groups, and unfolds a colorful historical picture. The author uses the principle of "going deep into history and jumping out of history" to describe the intricate historical process and the magnificent peasant uprising of more than 300 years ago. The novel takes the peasant uprising army led by Li Zicheng in the late Ming Dynasty from weak to strong, turning defeat into victory, overthrowing the rule of the Ming Dynasty, and resisting the southward march of the Qing army as the main clue. It reproduces the changing historical landscape of the late Ming and early Qing dynasty and the tragic ending of the peasant uprising army from victory to defeat from multiple angles, multi-facets, and multi-levels, and reveals the law of the development of peasant wars and historical movements.

Well written, the tragic character Li Zicheng learns from his failures. The rogue banditry has no ambition, and the dictatorship has harmed the people of the country. They are living in war, and the people are in dire straits, and the people have gone from love to hate. It's a pity!
Beauty wanes, and a hero dies. Cover it up and sigh.
ups and downs of life
Good fortune and misfortune depend on each other!
