A modern academic prodigy with double degrees in history and physics wakes up in 1644 in the most hellish situation imaginable: he has transmigrated into Wu Sangui!
The Chongzhen Emperor has hanged himself at Coal Hill, his father is a prisoner, his beloved concubine has been captured, and six hundred thousand rebel troops led by Li Zicheng are in front of him while Dorgon’s Eight Banners cavalry is behind. He has only fifty thousand battered soldiers and seven days' worth of provisions. One wrong move, and he will go down in history as a traitor to the Han, with his life and clan wiped out.
Using his knowledge of history to see the great forces at play, and hard-core physics to build impregnable passes, improve gunpowder, calculate trajectories, and create devastating weapons,
he refuses to surrender to the rebels, submit to the Qing, or support the Southern Ming. With impregnable passes as his foundation, iron will as his blade, and his double degrees as a heaven-defying golden finger,
he carves a path out of a hopeless death trap, sweeps away the rebels, drives out the northern invaders, brings order to the realm, and ultimately ends the old dynasty to found a new one!
Heart-wrenching tragedy, explosive thrills, and laugh-out-loud comedy. Every move is calculated to perfection, and every chapter is packed with climactic twists!
