This book is an alternative history of the Republic of China for the general public. It provides an alternative interpretation of the most chaotic and exciting troubled times in Chinese history, deciphers the black and white lives of the bigwigs of the Republic of China, and deciphers the rules of survival in troubled times. If you understand the troubled times, you will understand history and life, and you will naturally uncover the ambitions of heroes and tyrants, and the life-and-death knots of great and villains. The author has studied the history of the Republic of China for many years and has consulted tens of millions of words of historical materials. He has a solid professional foundation and a broad ideological vision, which is different from the impetuousness of grassroots history theory and the boring academic history. With rigorous historical facts, sharp perspective, and pleasant writing style, it directly points to people's hearts and heartily decodes the black and white past events in troubled times. History that speaks directly to people's hearts may not necessarily be the best, but it must be the most enjoyable. History can be very exciting, and the Republic of China is certainly even more exciting.

This book describes the 105-year history from the birth of the demon king Zhang Xianzhong (1606 AD) to the fifty-ninth year of Kangxi (1720) when Yue Zhongqi entered Tibet and defeated the Junggar soldiers. With his sharp writing style and spicy words, the author vividly reproduces Zheng Chenggong's ever-increasing frustration and loyalty, Emperor Shunzhi's crazy and frustrated struggle for love, and Kangxi's "haha" martial arts of capturing Oboi, pacifying San Francisco, and destroying Junggar. In this book, the image of the all-powerful historical figure is completely overturned. The heroic image of the "great traitor" Wu Sangui is more majestic in benevolence and loyalty. The Mingjun Kangxi, the emperor through the ages and widely praised by later generations, was a pervert with twisted psychology, surly personality, and shameless behavior. At first reading, it seems like a thunderous shock, which makes people's hair stand on end and is difficult to accept. But if you think about it carefully, you can find the infinite true meaning in it.
