About this novel

At the end of the twelfth year of Yongli, during the final moments of the last court of the Southern Ming, the momentum of the Manchu Qing sweeping across the world seemed unstoppable. Li Dingguo, the final defender of the Yongli regime, died of grief in a foreign land; Zheng Chenggong, the final upholder of Han Chinese civilization, fled overseas.Show more

The world surrendered to the rebels but refused the Qing; even when only dozens remained, they would reject the Manchu's final calls to surrender... Ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains were stained in ink, and the heroes of the realm were all wiped out. This was no longer a war filled with hope, but nothing more than a desperate, dying resistance. Faced with a powerful enemy, where could a lone transmigrator turn? Even if he could see through the course of history, what use would it be? Should he drift overseas to seek a new beginning, or turn his back to the great ocean to fight a desperate battle to the death?
