Transmigrated to the Late Ming: The Rise of Technology

As the Battle of Songjin neared its end, the savage, bloodthirsty Eight Banners troops of Later Jin surrounded Songshan City in an overwhelming ring. Then urgent news suddenly arrived from Shengjing... After two tense, hurried days of preparation, the Jianzhou Jurchen camp finally assembled a cavalry force of roughly ten thousand and rushed back to reinforce Shengjing. Their mounts were all tall, sturdy donkeys! Yes, you read that right: tall, sturdy donkeys. You might ask, when did the Eight Banners start riding donkeys?

It all goes back to sanctions imposed by the League of Nations. During the Battle of Songjin, Qing soldiers massacred prisoners of war, violating the international conventions established by the League. As a result, the Qing state was sanctioned. The terms were simple: from then on, the Great Qing could no longer use or own warhorses.

The League of Nations was founded by a shut-in from the twenty-first century.

When Zhang Changting first transmigrated to the late Ming, the people were barely clothed and emaciated. They were driven to exchange children for food, and famine ravaged the land... It was a living hell. Even so, the court still planned to impose additional taxes and levies on the people... He resolved to change this world that devoured its own people, carve out a place for the millions of Han people, drive out the barbarians, and turn the world into an age of peace and prosperity! He had nothing to his name. The only thing he could rely on was technology far beyond anything this world had ever seen.
