No golden finger + outwitting enemies on the battlefield + a bloody fight against the Later Jin at the end of the Ming dynasty. A modern mine worker transmigrates into the body of the late-Ming general Mao Wen. At the Battle of Sarhu, the elite troops are wiped out, the land falls, and the people are massacred. What he sees is not history, but the blood of his people being trampled underfoot.
You insult the soul of my people, and I will kill you a thousand miles from here.
With no golden finger, he has only a guerrilla campaign where every move risks his life. With the 197 civilians he rescued at his side, Mao Wen seizes ships and heads north, capturing islands and attacking Zhenjiang, wreaking havoc behind Later Jin lines. In the end, he forces the Later Jin to pull back from the front.
Through wits and courage, he fights his way out of a desperate situation. Every step is a brush with death, all to make his enemies understand: this sacrifice will not be in vain.
