Transmigrated as the most miserable Prince of Lu in the Southern Ming? Trapped in a desperate situation on Zhoushan from the start?
Defending a lone city to the death, two thousand battered soldiers against twenty thousand bloodthirsty foes. The Qing army’s execution squads cut people down like vegetables, while suicide squads blast through walls and gates. It’s a hopeless situation.
Zhu Yihai waves his hand. “Run? I’m not running! We’ll live or die together with the people! With divine weapons in hand and silver paving the way, follow me, and kill the Tartars for a handsome reward!”
And so the late Ming takes a turn for the absurd:
The Qing suicide squad charges up, carrying battering rams and shouting? One burst from the “Wrath of Thunder” machine gun, and they’re blown into a cloud of blood!
The Eight Banners’ crack troops set up ladders to scale the walls? The “Tartar Breaker” rapid-fire guns shoot from the breech, leaving them questioning their lives!
The Tartar commander Liu Zhiyuan struts about directing the battle? The “Might of Dinghai” cannon adjusts its aim slightly, and BOOM! One shot sends him spinning into the sky, horse and rider exploding like fireworks!
The Qing soldiers break down: “The Ming dogs have the Thunder God on their side! Run!”
Chen Jin roars in fury: “Zhu Yihai! What kind of demonic weapon is that?! We’ll slaughter Zhoushan!”
Watch the Prince of Lu break the siege at Zhoushan, root out traitors, open up maritime trade, build factories, and flood the West with textiles to reap its silver! He secretly establishes an arms bureau, climbs the tech tree to make flintlock guns and granular gunpowder, and even... steam-powered ironclad warships?!
Starting from a blood-soaked, besieged city on Zhoushan, Zhu Yihai holds the “Rejuvenation of China” fate token. His quest is to first destroy the Manchus, then build an empire that spans the world and puts all nations to work... the Chinese Empire!
