The Jiashen Incident caused the earth to collapse. Chongzhen hanged himself at Meishan, Li Zicheng invaded Yanjing, and China ushered in its darkest moment. When Lin Yan, a college student, passes through his soul and becomes Li Laiheng, the nephew of General Li Guo of the Dashun Army, new variables appear in the chess game in troubled times. With modern cognition and historical compassion, he stood firm in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. He used military discipline to rectify the people's hearts, prevent and control epidemics, and stabilize the foundation with food and grass. From the initial chaos in the streets of Beijing to the iron-blooded resistance at the Marco Polo Bridge, to the two-hero collaboration with Li Dingguo, Li Laiheng was like a fire in the dark night, igniting the hope of China's rejuvenation in the storm of the late Ming Dynasty.
