Mass graves outside Haozhou City in the twelfth year of Yuan Dynasty.
A soul from six hundred years later opened its eyes.
Lu Heng, a promising doctoral student in archeology, woke up after a laboratory explosion and found himself a dying refugee boy in the troubled times of the late Yuan Dynasty. Deaths from starvation were everywhere, the Yuan army's cavalry slaughtered wantonly, and the lives of the Han people were like straw - this was the world after he traveled.
If you don't accept your fate, you have to fight hard.
With his "prophet" advantage, he survived the rebellion and was taken in by the Red Turban Army. More importantly - he met Zhu Chongba.
The young man who had gone from beggar to monk, from monk to rioter, and from rioter to emperor step by step, was only a captain of nine at the moment, with no more than a hundred or ten people under his command. But Lu Heng saw it.
I saw those eyes that were sharper than knives.
Lu Heng chose to stay. Not because he knew he would become emperor, but because beside this man, he could live, fight, and witness with his own eyes the birth of a magnificent history——
From Haozhou to Chuzhou, from crossing the Yangtze River to Dingding Jinling, he followed Zhu Chongba, making suggestions, fighting with the heroes, and witnessing every life and death battle. Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Li Shanchang, Liao Yong'an... Talents of generals and ministers who have left their names in history rose from the grass in front of his eyes.
However, the predictions in the Destiny Record are becoming increasingly vague.
When Chen Youliang killed his lord and proclaimed himself emperor five years ahead of schedule, and when history quietly deviated from the track he knew well, Lu Heng finally understood——
He has no golden fingers, he only has himself.
In this chaotic chess game from the late Yuan Dynasty to the early Ming Dynasty, the real opponent is the "known future" that is constantly changing and collapsing.
Is he a chess player or a chess piece?
Yes, it's all semi-refreshing writing, the characters are well drawn.
