Gu Cheng's Ming History Series: History of the Southern Ming Dynasty + History of the Peasants' War in the Late Ming Dynasty (Three Volumes in Total)

Reading Gu Cheng's "History of the Southern Ming Dynasty", I just feel sad and desolate. There are mountains and rivers to defend and people with lofty ideals to rely on, but they are trapped in internal conflicts between parties and power struggles. Shi Kefa stayed alone in Yangzhou, while Li Dingguo fought against the Qing Dynasty with tears and blood, but it was difficult to save the building from collapse. The demise of the Southern Ming Dynasty was not due to the strength of the Qing army, but actually due to its own dispersion. Read Bi Changshu, a sad song of troubled times, every word touches my heart.

Mr. Gu Cheng's truth can be said to have broken through hundreds of years of fog in Ming history research.

The biggest lesson from the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty to the Chinese nation is that when foreign invaders invade, they must put aside their prejudices and deal with the outside world unanimously. This is also the reason why people of insight during the Anti-Japanese War proposed not to repeat the old affairs of the Southern Ming Dynasty.

I especially hate those characters who fight among themselves. They do whatever it takes to pursue their own interests and ruin the country. But this also gave me a deeper understanding of the reasons for Nanming's demise. I recommend you read it, you will definitely gain a lot!

The country will be destroyed by internal strife, and the country will be destroyed by internal strife. This is written by Nan Ming. Mr. Fucheng's writing is really good.

You are worthy of being a great man. I have benefited a lot just from reading the preface.

Worth reading carefully and gaining insights

It's really good. There are a lot of classical Chinese texts.

It feels pretty reliable and has historical data to support it.

A masterpiece in books related to the history of the Southern Ming Dynasty
