Synopsis

On the day Chongzhen hanged himself at Coal Hill, Crown Prince Zhu Cilang drew his sword and cut the ship’s mooring rope. “Ministers, face south. The ruler alone faces north!” The entire court knelt and urged him to flee south and carve out a corner of the realm, but the sixteen-year-old led his battered remnants north against the tide. He used Marxism to organize the masses, flintlocks to teach the Eight Banners a lesson, and the vow “The Ming may fall, but the realm must never be lost” to kindle the spirit of China! He won against the odds at the Yongding River, held Lugou Bridge against the Qing, and faced down Dorgon at Baoding. From three hundred routed soldiers to an army of a hundred thousand, from a lonely ruler to a nation united behind him, this is the true Crown Prince of the late Ming, forging a bloody path to victory!
