Great Ming: From the Start, I Stole Empress Ma from Zhu Yuanzhang, and He Wept

In the twelfth year of Zhizheng, a stone figure with one eye stirred the Yellow River and all beneath heaven rose in rebellion! The White Lotus Rebellion had lasted over a year, and the warlords of the dying Yuan Dynasty were taking the stage. Good news: his father was Marshal Guo Zixing. Bad news: his future brother-in-law was Zhu Chongba. To survive, Guo Tianxu could only solve the problem at its root: he would get to Ma Xiuying, the future Empress of Great Ming, first! With fierce generals at his side, he recruited Xu Da and won over Chang Yuchun, leading three thousand elite troops straight to Youyan. With capable ministers as his companions, he sought out Liu Bowen and enlisted Li Shanchang, soared to the highest throne, and opened a new era for Great Ming! Drive out the Mongols, restore China, destroy Northern Yuan, and found Great Ming! This is no feeble Zhu Ming. There will be no five costly campaigns into the northern deserts, no Oirat hostage emperor, no carpenter emperor, and no ruler hanging himself on Coal Hill! This is Guo Ming: Northern Yuan will fall, Japan will be conquered, Annam will be pacified, the Western Regions will be reclaimed, and a U-Tsang Regional Military Commission will be established! After the Han and Tang, another dynasty will command the world and receive the worship of the foreign peoples of every quarter!
