A modern naval officer transmigrates to the turbulent battlefields of the late Qing dynasty and becomes Zheng Tao, the sixth-generation descendant of Zheng Chenggong, the revered Prince of Yanping.
From the start, he's in the main hall of the Heavenly King's palace in Tianjing, where Hong Xiuquan says he'll make me Prince of Yanping and have me lead troops against the Qing court? I refuse on the spot! I denounce the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom as a bunch of religious charlatans throwing the world into chaos!
“Heavenly Father? God? My ancestors fought off Dutch invaders!”
System activated: [Dragon Soul National Destiny System] Each victory against the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom or the Qing court lets me seize their national destiny and exchange it for modern weapons and equipment!
Zeng Guofan's Xiang Army lays siege to the city? I'll take my steam-powered ironclad fleet and blow your Yangtze navy to pieces!
Cixi wants to offer me an official pardon? Tell her to get on her knees and beg, “Prince of Yanping, spare my life!” first!
When I lead my modern army into Beijing, the whole world trembles.
In this life, I will neither serve the Qing nor worship gods. I, Zheng Tao, will use this shattered realm to lead the Pacifying Seas Army in rebuilding China's maritime Great Wall. Wherever the sun and moon shine, there shall be Han land!
