(Time travel + no system + tactics + group portraits + war + historical facts)
When he woke up, Zhu Sheng, an ordinary office worker, found that he had become Emperor Chongzhen, the most famous king who had subjugated his country in history, with only seven years left before he was hanged on Meishan.
What he saw in front of him was a completely collapsed mess: cavalry outside the customs were pressing down on the border, bandits were everywhere in the Central Plains, factions in the court were fighting endlessly, the treasury could run away with rats, but in the land of Shaanxi, people were already eating each other.
He once thought that history could be easily rewritten, until he opened the bloody memorial with his own hands, until he saw the iceberg of corruption in the court, until he realized that it was difficult for him to even pay a hundred thousand taels of silver to save his life.
But, now that I'm here, I have to give it a try.
Use modern thinking to shine a light in this darkest era: checking corruption accounts, saving money for the palace, looking for grain seeds, training new troops... Every step is like walking on thin ice. Wen Tiren's hidden arrows, the secret hands of the Caoyun Yamen, the wait-and-see of the border generals, countless pairs of eyes stared at him in the abyss.
This is a race against time and a bet against history. What Zhu Sheng wants to do is not only to save the Ming Dynasty, but also to use a modern soul to pave a way for millions of people to survive on the edge of the cliff where the empire is about to collapse.
The seven-year countdown has begun. Let's see how he performs the deeds of a saint in a mortal body, goes back to the desperate situation, and rewrites Chongzhen.
