For decades, Taiwan has been a thorn in the side of the Chinese government. An independent nation to the rest of the world, it is considered a rogue province by the PRC. Previous governments have tried to conquer the island using economic force and diplomatic pressure, but new Chinese President Li Jian Jun is done fooling around. Hes devised a secret military operation to take the island. Only one man knows how to stop Lis mad and bloody plan for reunification and thats Minister of Defense Qin Haiyu.
