At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the protagonist's soul traveled through May of the fifth year of Apocalypse, on the day when Emperor Zhu Youxiao of Apocalypse fell into the water. At this moment, Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou and other six gentlemen have been imprisoned, and there is only one month left before being persecuted by the eunuchs. Liaodong, under the management of Sun Chengzong, pushed all the way from Shanhaiguan to regain more than 400 miles of lost territory and established the Ningjin Defense Line. He goes up to the Chief of Ceremony, who holds the seal and holds the pen, the Cabinet, and the Six Ministries, and goes down to the Governor and County Magistrate. In a situation where the whole court is full of eunuchs, let's see how the protagonist breaks the blockade of eunuchs and extends his tentacles to the outside world. This was also the best opportunity for the Ming Dynasty. In the past, Sun Chengzong was stationed in Ningyuan to train troops, and later Mao Wenlong was waiting for an opportunity to contain him in Pidao. Should we eradicate the powerful Ming Dynasty from the eunuchs, or should we follow the old path of the Apocalypse Emperor and let the giant ship of the Ming Dynasty sink again? ?

Tribute Map: the Extraterritorial World in the Eyes of the Ancient Chinese

During the Qing Dynasty, the main documents about foreign knowledge were "The Tribute Map of the Qing Dynasty" and "The Map of All Nations Coming to the Court". From the names of the two documents, it is easy to see that during the Qing Dynasty, the world view of the authorities and dynastic elites still followed China's ancient view of the world, and at the same time, the boundaries between civilization and barbarism were divided between Yixia and Xia. Countries surrounding China such as Korea, Annam, Siam, Sulu, Burma, Nanzhang, Brunei, and Luzon have been included in the "tributary order" surrounding Chinese civilization since before the Qing Dynasty. Qing rulers from outside the country could not only inherit and strengthen this arrangement, but they were also unable to make their own innovations. It can be seen from the "Zong Tribute Map" that the rulers of the Qing Dynasty were undoubtedly more familiar with the surrounding countries, and were more accustomed to considering themselves the center of East Asian civilization and condescendingly judging the history, current situation and social life of the surrounding countries.
