"The whole world is a chess piece, who is the one who holds it?"
An epic about "reconstruction of order" and "the trial of human nature". When the old dynasty collapsed and the world was in chaos, heroes from all walks of life used the people as bargaining chips to fight for hegemony. The protagonist, Fan Tieyi, comes from a humble background. He started as an abandoned soldier of the frontier army. With his extraordinary insight into the nature of war and his precise grasp of human nature, he rose up in a sea of blood and corpses, and finally had to answer an ultimate proposition: After conquering the world, how should we place the world under its control?
