Synopsis :Zhang Xianzhong was born in Yanan, Shaanxi Province and was the leader of a peasant rebellion in the dying days of the Ming Dynasty. He eventually grew in power to become one of the greatest mass-murderers in human history and had a massive stone tablet erected in Chengdu, recording the reasoning behind his mass killings. There were twenty-one words engraved on the tablet which became known as the 'Qi Sha Bei"". Though founded his own kingdom called Da Xi, Zhang was later put to death by troops of the invading Manchus.
