Lu Xiangsheng, Ming Dynasty

When reading the history of the Ming Dynasty, one would never fail to close up one's books until the Chongzhen Dynasty and sigh: If there were a hero like Lu Gong Xiangsheng, how could he allow the country to overthrow? He is a man of both civil and military talents, extremely loyal and courageous, and sincerity is the pillar that supports the sky. If the soul of modernity is attached to him, with the wisdom of the prophet and the knowledge of the world, he will surely be able to organize the military and political affairs with thunderous means, collect powerful forces from all over the world, and clear away the chronic diseases. We can also expand maritime trade to strengthen the treasury, introduce Western learning and use powerful firearms to suppress the bandits and defend the Eastern captives. In this way, not only could Duke Lu avoid his tragic fate, but he could also turn the sky upside down, rebuild the Ming Dynasty, and make the sun and moon reopen to the sky of Zhongxing!
