1661: Zheng Chenggong Regained Taiwan

Three hundred years ago, he took back an island in nine months. In the spring of 1661, on the coast of Xiamen, Zheng Chenggong faced the opposition of the generals and decided to march eastward. Wind, waves, forts, lack of food - every step is a dead end. But he must go. His father Zheng Zhilong was imprisoned by the Qing Dynasty, and his mother died at the hands of Qing soldiers. In the sixteenth year of the resistance against the Qing Dynasty, an army of 170,000 was defeated under the walls of Nanjing. Xiamen is such a small place that it cannot survive for three months. Taiwan was his last resort, and it was also the land where the Han people had been ravaged by the Dutch for 38 years. Chen Ze wants to avenge his brother who died in Nanjing. He Bin endured thirty years in Taiwan and risked his life to present the picture. Zhou Quanbin said: "I am beating the red-haired ghost." Wu Hao knelt on the ground and trembled: "I'm afraid that all our people will die in the sea." From the roaring waves at the Deer Gate to the bloody battle at the end of the Northern Front; from the despair of the nine-month siege to the final artillery fire at Utrecht Castle—— In February 1662, Kui held a sword in both hands and presented it to Zheng Chenggong. The Dutch flag was lowered. Taiwan is back. --- This is a story about faith, sacrifice and coming home. Those people four hundred years ago were just like you and me today - they were afraid, cried, and homesick. But they stood up. Some land cannot be lost. ---
