The Heroes of the Late Qing Dynasty

The late Qing Dynasty was the darkest moment in modern Chinese history. The door of the country was wide open, and the great powers were waiting for it. Unequal treaties followed one after another. Territories were ceded for indemnity, sovereignty was lost, the mountains and rivers were covered in dust, and the whole country was plunged into endless humiliation. At the time of crisis, China's land of patriots emerged in large numbers. The Westernization faction learned skills from the barbarians in order to strengthen themselves, the royalists and constitutional monarchists rushed to call for reform and innovation, and the revolutionaries rose up to change the world. Although their paths are different, these pioneers all have their family and country at heart, using their flesh and blood and ideals to try to tear apart the dark curtain shrouding China and wash away decades of national humiliation. Chen Kai, a prospective computer science graduate from the 21st century, accidentally slipped while exploring the Qinling Mountains during his summer vacation and fell into an ancient coffin that had been dusty for thousands of years. Time and space have passed, and his soul has returned to the Guangxu period, transforming into a young man in the market. Living in troubled times of poverty and weakness, internal and external troubles, I saw the arrogance and domineering foreigners and the wanton trampling of the country, and the shame of national subjugation was engraved in my heart. He did not just talk or dream, but set his lifelong ambition to rejuvenate the country through industry: use hard work as a blade and industry as a shield to consolidate national strength and drive away foreign enemies. In the tide of the times, foreign businessmen and foreign enemies are infiltrating step by step. In the future, the Eight-Nation Allied Forces, the forces of Tsarist Russia, and the evil bandits in the east are all eyeing it, trying to encroach on the fertile land of China for a long time. Under the market, there are also undercurrents such as secret paganism lurking, and crises are everywhere. The road ahead is full of thorns and powerful enemies are waiting in front of you. An ordinary young man who traveled through time, filled with passion and ideals of saving the country, ignited a spark in the darkness of a hundred years. In this long journey of saving the country through industry and resisting foreign aggression, can he break through the difficulties and get what he wants?
