The Ming Empire Never Sets

I love historical fiction because it's a unique kind of adult fairy tale, a testament to the indomitable dream of the Han Chinese people. While the regrets are unchangeable, what can be changed is the indomitable dream within our hearts. Since it's just a dream, taking it too seriously will only lead to defeat. 😁

This is disgusting! Aside from the first few chapters being somewhat interesting, this book has become a poisonous read ever since He Xiang appeared! It's all about prostitutes, mistresses, and wet nurses—the tastes are too toxic. I suggest the author write something like *The Romance of the Western Chamber*, or even something like *The Carnal Prayer Mat*. Please, don't write any more historical time-travel novels; they're too toxic! I'm practically spitting blood.

I couldn't bear to read any longer. There are so many glaring flaws. For example, the bombs—unless they're made with specially made bullets, detonating a flintlock musket is practically impossible. Attacking Japanese pirates from outside their caves with a flintlock musket? Are they courting death? Also, author, do you know who brought you together to talk so much about ethnicity?

Without breech-loading rifled cannons and explosive shells, infantry-artillery coordination is simply impossible. Wouldn't it be better to just line up and execute them? Why force infantry to charge into enemy lines and engage in bayonet combat with armies armed with melee weapons?

In the past, everyone fawned over Emperor Chongzhen, but did he really respect him? I'm disgusted... I really dislike the Ming Dynasty. Its tax policies were absurd, princes raised pigs and seized land, and people were divided into different classes—artisans and soldiers were either lowly soldiers or of low social status...

Recommend if you like it, tip if you like it, vote if you like it.

This is a great book from the Ming Dynasty; I highly recommend it, vote for it, and give it a reward!

I suddenly realized that my name is exactly the same as the book title.

The article's structure is good, but the process of gradually rising from humble beginnings is too short. The constant back-slapping and excessive focus on women make the story feel weak, and the characters aren't truly utterly awful. It's a bit uninspiring.

Drilling steel pipes is so stupid! Just make a perforated crucible with a small-diameter ceramic core and extrude it continuously! Cut it to the desired length and then cold press it in a mold. Without a hydraulic press, a ton of iron weight isn't enough for ten tons! It's only a little over one cubic meter.
