Late Ming: I, Chongzhen, Have Rebelled!

Zhu Qing transmigrated into the Chongzhen Emperor, but it was already the seventeenth year of the Chongzhen reign, and Li Zicheng was about to lay siege to Beijing!

Zhu Qing panicked.

He ordered the civil and military officials to raise funds for the army, but the ministers pleaded poverty and wouldn't give a single penny.

Corrupt officials and powerful nobles were a problem at home, while the Southern Donglin faction evaded taxes.

Barbarian invaders threatened from without, and the rebel king watched like a tiger poised to pounce.

With the empire on the brink of collapse, Zhu Qing thought of the century of humiliation that awaited China and finally flew into a rage!

If all of you are rebelling, why can't the emperor rebel too?

I'm done defending this realm!

From now on, I'll be a warlord who rules from the mountains!

Once the thought of rebellion takes hold, the world opens up in an instant.

First, slaughter Beijing's powerful nobles and seize funds for the army.

Then, crush the warlords and rule from the mountains.

From defender of the system to destroyer of the system!

"I have come! I have conquered!"

Destroy the Manchu Qing, slaughter the Japanese, seize Luzon, usher the Chinese people into the Age of Discovery, invent the steam engine a century early, and unite the world!
