A novel that travels through the Republic of China. It starts out as a boy, but later becomes a warlord after collecting hundreds of tons of gold. He has many concubines and has enough room to carry around.
There is no large-scale confrontation, no vigorous counterattack, just lurking, forbearance, and gaming day after day. Under the long-term colonial rule of the Japanese army, under the endless suspicion of Kage Sasaki, in the tug of war between enslavement and anti-slavery, plunder and counter-plunder, occupation and counter-offensive. Shen Jinghan will use the lonely city as a chessboard and the darknet as a chess piece to start a life-and-death battle that will last for several years without any gunpowder.
