[00:00:00]The greatest [music] military mind in China was destroyed by his own genius.

[00:00:04]It's 1949, Beijing, China. Lin Biao stands [music] beside Mao as the People's Republic is born. He's the architect of communist victory, crushing nationalist [music] armies with brilliant tactics. His strategies win the civil war and make Mao emperor of the world's largest [music] nation. Mao rewards him with defense minister and heir apparent. Lin builds the Little Red Book, turning Mao into a living god while quietly placing his own allies throughout the military.

[00:00:30]His tactical [music] brilliance makes him untouchable. For years, he seems invincible, but Mao grows suspicious.

[00:00:37]The same strategic mind that won the revolution now threatens the throne. A deadly game begins in the shadows of the Forbidden City.

[00:00:44]>> [music] >> Lin senses the trap closing. On September 13th, 1971, he flees toward Moscow [music] with his family. Their plane lifts off in darkness, racing for the Soviet border. Hours [music] later, wreckage burns in the Mongolian desert.

[00:00:58]No survivors. Beijing claims he plotted a coup. Moscow stays silent.

[00:01:02]>> [music] >> The military genius who created modern China was Lin Biao.
