Qin Shihuang: Ruler of the World (two Volumes)
About This Novel
The Qin Dynasty is a mystery. Qin Shihuang is even more of a mystery within a mystery! In 259 BC, Qin Shihuang was born in Handan, Zhao State. In 257 BC, his father cut off his tail to survive, leaving the 3-year-old Qin Shihuang and his mother Zhao Ji behind, and fled back to Qin alone. In 251 BC, the 9-year-old Qin Shihuang and his mother appeared again and returned to Qin safely. In 247 BC, at the age of 13, he defeated his opponents and ascended to the throne with an undisputed advantage. In 238 BC, at the age of 22, he began to take charge of the government, suppressing dissidents and putting down rebellions. In 221 BC, at the age of 39, he destroyed the six kingdoms, unified the world, established the Qin Dynasty, and became the first "emperor" in Chinese history. From running away at the age of 3 to dominating the world at the age of 39, what exactly has he experienced in these years? How did he survive? How did he win the throne? How does he control his subordinates? What clever ways does he have to deal with his opponents' challenges? What did he have mastered that allowed him to overwhelm the six nations of the world with an overwhelming advantage?
