   No system, no knowledge of history. On the night of Tumu Fortress, he transmigrated and killed Wang Zhen. He reigned as emperor for only a day, sending his double south only to be captured, while he led three thousand remaining soldiers north, starving and freezing. Snowfields, blizzards, starvation, wolf packs… No cheat codes, only survival in dire straits. Meanwhile, Zhu Qiyu in the capital, watching the empty treasury, defended the borders with Yu Qian. Two parallel storylines, one overt, one covert. This is the Ming Dynasty's toughest bone, its coldest blade.

   The story begins with the devastating defeat at Wuhu in 1645. The protagonist settles in southern Anhui, gradually gathering refugee militias and building a complete military system. The system is extremely limited, only usable in life-or-death crises. Ninety percent of the plot is based on real history, with various forces vying for power. All characters are intelligent, without any forced cheat codes. The focus is on portraying the power struggles between characters and the various aspects of life in a chaotic world.
