In Liaodong at the end of the Ming Dynasty, a grain ship runs aground on a reef, leaving Gu Chengwu and several dozen battered soldiers stranded on a deserted island.
Their ship is taking on water, their provisions are damp, and pirates are watching from beyond the island. To survive, they have no choice but to repair the ship, fish, build a fortress, and seize their first vessel from the pirates.
They take in refugees, train sailors, build cannons, and open trade routes. An abandoned island no one cared about gradually becomes a vital naval stronghold guarding the Bohai Sea.
When Later Jin marches south and the Ming Dynasty teeters on the brink of collapse, while warlords fight over cities and land, Gu Chengwu’s fleet has already set sail from the island.
His empire begins here, on this sea.
