The Fiercest Man in Southern Ming

In 1644, Beijing fell, the Ming dynasty collapsed, the Qing army entered the pass, and warlords vied for supremacy. The land of China was on the verge of ruin.

A modern special forces instructor transmigrates into the body of Zhu Youlang, a thirteen-year-old illegitimate son of the Prince of Gui.

He knows the official history: in the winter of 1645, his father, Zhu Changying, is destined to die of illness in Wuzhou.

For him, powerless and suppressed by his legitimate elder brother, only a year and seven months remain to lie low and prepare.

Without backing, legitimacy, or military authority, he can only proceed cautiously, endure in silence, and lay his plans. He uses his father's remaining influence to take control of the Gui fief's troops and provisions, root out internal corruption, train the army, and secure his territory.

When the Prince of Gui dies, the fief falls into chaos. The imperial clan fights for power, while officials and generals wait to see what happens.

After years of lying low, Zhu Youlang strikes decisively, seizes power by force, and takes sole command of his southwestern domain.

He will not be the tragic, exiled Yongli Emperor. He will be a ruthless man of action in a chaotic age!

He uses military strategy to determine the outcome of battles and iron-fisted methods to purge treacherous officials. He puts an end to infighting, fights the Eight Banners, and subdues the rival warlords.

Against all odds, he turns the tide in the dying Southern Ming, sweeps away the northern invaders, and rebuilds the Han realm across ten thousand miles!
