    The story begins with the defeat of Wuhu in 1645. The protagonist retreats to southern Anhui as a guerrilla general and starts from scratch. The system is extremely restrictive and can only be used briefly in life-and-death situations. Most of the difficulties are resolved by the protagonist's planning, comforting the refugees, and dealing with various forces. The full text does not vilify any of the characters.
