The blood at Muye has yet to cool, and the snow on White Mountain is already deep.
When modern man Chen Yonghe opens his eyes, he finds himself a half-frozen soldier among the fleeing troops of the Shang Dynasty. The Zhou army's iron hooves thunder behind him, while the frozen wastelands of the northeast stretch before him. His comrades turn against one another, food is gone, and all hope of reinforcements has vanished. Everyone thinks this is the end...
But he says, "Head north. Cross the bitter cold, cross the strait, and a new world awaits us."
With a little first-aid knowledge, a few principles of weather, and some skill with traps, he survives against all odds. Through a divine revelation in the form of a dream from the "Mystical Bird," he wins over the shamans, intimidates rebel generals, and unites the people. As bronze daggers pierce the wind and snow and hide boats break through the drifting ice of the Bering Sea, eight hundred Shang souls set foot on a land no one had ever imagined.
This is an epic escape across two continents...
