The Ming Dynasty fell in the 17th year of Chongzhen, and the Qing army entered the Pass and marched southward. In the eighth year of Shunzhi, the fire of resistance in the Central Plains was almost extinguished, and no one believed that the Ming Dynasty could be revived.
Chen Du, the son of a tenant farmer in Huizhou, lived among the dead after his family was destroyed. He only wanted to find a way out, but he was pushed to the battlefield by the troubled times. He started with 237 broken soldiers, starting from the small town of Qingyuan, and built an iron army based on the survival wisdom honed in the pile of dead people.
After twenty years of fighting, he defeated Shang Kexi, Kong Youde, and Obai, and fought with Kangxi to determine the world in Huaihai. He divided the land to pacify the people, innovated the system, forged artillery, and finally stood in front of the Dragon Throne in the Hall of Supreme Harmony in a commoner's body.
