This book is based on the turbulent Taiping Rebellion period, but breaks the conventional historical trend. Historical figures such as the British King Chen Yucheng, the loyal king Li Xiucheng, Zeng Guofan, etc. Appeared one after another. During the Anqing Defense Battle, when the Qing army and the Taiping Army were fighting fiercely, the living corpse crisis broke out, and the soldiers who died in the battle were resurrected one after another.
The story begins in the ninth year of Xianfeng (1859). The Hunan Army took advantage of the internal strife in Tianjing and Shi Dakai led the army to leave. Anqing, which must be rescued, was the main target of the attack. The Hunan Army stormed Anqing. Taiping Army General Lin Yu suddenly encountered a zombie crisis in the army. The soldiers who originally fought side by side instantly turned into crazy and bloodthirsty monsters, causing chaos in the army. Su Yao, as a female medical officer of the Taiping Army, has a gentle temperament and a great love. Wearing plain clothes, she shuttled between the bloody and cruel battlefield ruins, using her superb medical skills and gentle comfort to bring hope of life to the injured soldiers. She tried to explore the truth of the disease and find hope. While holding on to Anqing, they fought side by side to find the truth. However, the disaster was out of control.
But the crisis goes far beyond that. The looming figure of Western missionaries casts a shadow over the disaster. The appearance of living corpses does not seem to be accidental, and there is an ulterior secret behind it. In this complicated situation, Lin Yu and Su Yao faced the test of trust and betrayal, and intertwined love and hate. Under the dual threats of war and disaster, can they break the situation to make a living, uncover the truth, and protect the precarious Taiping Heavenly Kingdom?
