In the ninth year of Chongzhen, there was a crisis at the border. Yang Ding'an woke up and became the defeated general who was nailed to the pillar of shame in the history books for "losing his troops and losing his territory". What's even more ironic is that at this time, "he" is being tied up and taken to the execution ground, preparing to take the blame for those bosses who are greedy for life and fear of death.
In his previous life, Yang Ding'an was a graduate student in tactical history at a military academy. Faced with the huge historical black hole of the late Ming Dynasty, he only wanted to say one thing: I will not bear the blame.
On the execution ground, he spoke astonishingly and accurately predicted the enemy's attack route within three days, luckily saving his life. However, what was waiting was not to make up for the past, but a more cruel military order - lead five hundred old and weak men to defend an isolated city that was destined to die, and delay the enemy's main force for three days.
Everyone was waiting to see how this "mourned general" would be defeated and killed again. His superiors were waiting to share his property, and his colleagues were waiting to see his jokes. Even the battle-hardened soldiers under his command did not take him as "Master Yang" seriously.
But they didn't know that standing in front of them was a modern soul who was proficient in topography, logistics and psychology.
He doesn't know martial arts, and he doesn't understand riding and shooting, but he knows how to feed the most soldiers with the least food, knows how to use psychological warfare to make the enemy suspicious, and knows how to turn a group of rabble into men willing to die in a desperate situation.
Since everyone says that I am "mourning", then I will show you how "mourning" I am - a crazy "mourning".
