Features: A timeless and extraordinary tale, a masterpiece of martial arts. In the first year of the Hongwu era (1368), the Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang launched a northern expedition. In August, the Ming army entered Dadu City (now Beijing), and the Yuan Emperor fled north, marking the fall of the Yuan Dynasty. Mongol nobles and soldiers were forced to return to the Mongolian grasslands, while the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty still posed a significant threat to the northern frontier of the Ming Empire. To consolidate the Ming regime, the Ming Emperor established nine passes in the north, each heavily guarded to defend against Mongol invasions. However, the ambitions of the Mongol nobles to move south remained unchanged, and they continued their activities to restore the Yuan Dynasty through various means and methods.
