Iron Blood 1628: I Built Mechas in the Ming Dynasty

In the thirteenth year of Chongzhen, mechanical engineer Lu Zhaoran was reborn as a prisoner on death row in Jinyiwei. As a member of the World Craftsmanship System, he relied on modern technology to solve the mystery of the imperial edict and built a flintlock gun to win the emperor's heart. However, he was involved in the Donglin Party Conflict and the White Lotus Cult. When Li Zicheng's millions of troops pressed into the territory, he led his steam armored chariots in a bloody battle at Tongguan; Dorgon's cavalry went south, and the hot air balloons and thunder burned all the food and grass of the Eight Banners. On the banks of the Qinhuai River, the White Lotus Saint worked with him to break the salt merchant's conspiracy; at the top of the Forbidden City, Emperor Chongzhen's quantum heart lurked a shocking murder. From improving Tiangong Kaiwu to building the starship Dyson Sphere, Lu Zhaoran uncovered the truth about the explosion of Wang Gong Factory in the paradox of time and space - it turns out that the national destiny of the Ming Dynasty has long been cast into an endless loop by future time travellers. This duel between civilizations spanning four hundred years will eventually rewrite the Chinese Empire with a torrent of steel, and create the Chinese Federation of Stars and Seas with a galactic fleet.
