Anqing 1861: Iron and Blood Forged Mountains and Rivers

Chen Jingzhi, a doctor of modern history, accidentally traveled to Anqing City, which was besieged by the iron barrels of the Hunan Army in 1861. He knew the fate of this city better than anyone else: a year-long siege of the city, depleting food and devouring people, the day the city was broken, the Hunan Army massacred the city for three days, and tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians perished in a sea of ​​fire. The unarmed scholar was caught between the Taiping Army and the Hunan Army. His only weapon was the memory of the Anqing War that he had cultivated for ten years. In a desperate situation, he outsmarted unscrupulous merchants and opened porridge shacks, formed civilian defense lanes, reclaimed wasteland and farmed fields to eliminate food shortages, and attacked and defended the Hunan Army through tunnels. With a mortal body, he forcibly carved a way for the people on the bloody battlefield. He defended the city side by side with general Ye Yunlai, and protected the cultural heritage with Su Wanqing, a talented girl from Tongcheng faction. During the bloody battle at Chigan Ridge and the fierce battle at Linghu Beach, he guarded the people of the city and protected the fire of Wanjiang River. Amid the sound of artillery fire as the city was destroyed, he led the survivors to break out of the culvert, rebuild their homes on the ruins, build mountains and rivers with iron and blood, and spend his life guarding the city's century-old glory.
