At the Beginning, Zhang Xianzhong Massacred the City, and I Defended Taihu Lake.

I have read every chapter, and now I have read the chapter about the trip to Anqing. Generally speaking, the writing style, historical details, character setting, storyline, social philosophy, survival thinking, and logic surpass most similar historical online articles. 1. The characters are richly portrayed. In addition to the protagonist, the conscientiousness of the county government soldier Zhang Weizhong, the greed of the householder Li Chenggui, the powerlessness of the county magistrate Jin Yingyuan in the last days, the cunning and progressive soldier Zhang Fusong, and the loyalty and honesty of the middle-level officer Ma Chuanlin are all very vivid, and each has its own chapter to advance the plot. The only regret is that there is less space on the female pig's feet. 2. The ecological operation of the county in the late Ming Dynasty. Such as county government operation process and case filing process. Folk life, funerals, customs, food, refugee survival, bandit suppression, war, etc. 3. The protagonist Goldfinger is relatively restrained. I only saw that the protagonist used modern military systems, hygiene, and cruel ethics that transcended the society at that time. There were no systems, heavy machine guns, etc. That were not in line with the laws of social development at that time. 4. Understand how rogue bandits attacked cities at that time, such as the attacks on Tongcheng and Taihu. In the author's works, the bandits, the government and even himself are all helpless and cruel. In troubled times, everything is possible, but only the common people suffer. 5. War description: Real, as if watching a movie, the words in front of you become pictures. 6. The only shortcoming is that there is too much drama in the chapters before the night attack on the granary. After the Battle of Shixiashan, the author's horizons suddenly opened up and he entered a period of rapid development. There is indeed no golden finger in this novel. It is not a time-travel novel, but a hard-core hegemony rooted in history and step-by-step. The protagonist Fang Che, as the leader of the militia in Taihu County, inherited a mess: lack of pay, lack of armor, and lack of artillery. Outside the city were eyeing rogues, and inside the city were scheming officials and gentry. But his way of breaking the situation is extremely real and amazing: he did not rely on poetry to confiscate the family, but relied on abacus, sword and human heart. You will see how he, like a shrewd businessman, negotiates between the dilapidated Anqing Guard and the powerful garrison, grabbing food from the tiger's mouth and planning a way to make money; how he imitates Liu Xuande's "three visits to the thatched cottage" just to find a cannon-making craftsman; and you will be sweating for his audacity as a "celebrity in the night robbery" and his ability to survive in desperate situations. Every step is in the context of history, and the origin of every penny, every piece of armor, and every gun is clearly traceable. This solid sense of "entrepreneurship" is extremely convincing. The author's pen is profound and vivid, and he vividly describes the suffocation of the imperial guards, financial collapse, and rogue bandits in the late Ming Dynasty. The protagonist Fang Che kills decisively but has a bottom line in mind. The supporting characters such as the shrewd He Chengying, the bookish Fang Jingchuan, the aloof Bo Jue, and the bureaucrats with their own hidden agendas are all full of flesh and blood. In particular, Lei Yizhao, a beauty in troubled times, is both wise and courageous at a glance. Her implicit and powerful interaction with the protagonist is the finishing touch. This is not only a story of struggle for hegemony, but also a vivid anatomy of the local military and political economy in the late Ming Dynasty, and an epic of survival in troubled times. Five-star recommendation, dedicated to all readers who love history, love strategy, and appreciate hard-core stories. Follow Fang Che and see how the wind blows from Taihu Lake and shakes up the world!

Five-star recommendation! A hard-core benchmark for city defense literature in the late Ming Dynasty! From the loading details of the red cannon to the life-and-death fights between Taihu soldiers and civilians, solid historical research is revealed in every aspect, including Fang Che's struggle, the bloodiness of the people, and Zhang Xianzhong's fear. The characters are vivid and unremarkable, and the battlefield is tragic and real. The readers will be excited and tearful. What a great book!

I finally gained some weight after enduring it for a long time. I finished reading the first part in one go. It's really good. The plot has ups and downs, and every twist is not abrupt. The characters are more diverse and delicate. I'd like to support it by giving it a good review.

Starting from Taihu to fight against Zhang Xianzhong and defeat Li Zicheng, I really fell in love with this plot and I'm definitely following it!

Every character is full of life, full of emotions, but very real. I don't like to read sad stories, and I burst into tears while reading some passages, but I couldn't bear to put it down.
