I Am the Emperor at the End of the Ming Dynasty

Late in the Ming dynasty, the Qing army invaded, Liaodong fell into chaos, and the empire teetered on the brink of collapse.

Zhu Jian, a science student, transmigrated into the body of Emperor Chongzhen, the last man at the helm of the Ming Empire. Under his leadership, the empire, weakened by years of decline, was destined to take a different path.

The soldiers of the Great Ming would cross mountains, rivers, and seas, destroying every enemy that might threaten the empire. The powerful Eight Banners cavalry and the first empire to stand for nearly a thousand years would both be crushed beneath the advance of the Ming army.

And as for Joseon, a vassal state, and the Japanese pirates on the islands overseas: if they wished to escape destruction, they would have to surrender their territories and wealth, and heed the teachings of the wise men of the Great Ming.

Zhu Youjian stood with his sword atop the Forbidden City's highest tower, pointing ahead.
