I've been reading historical novels about the Song Dynasty since high school, and the infantry armor mentioned in them fascinated me, so I made a set myself. It's a little different from the one worn by the guy downstairs, but it's modeled after the one worn by Teacher Bulletproof Cow. A set weighs about 60-70 pounds, with two layers of armor. Oh, and by the way, I'm 193cm tall without shoes.
Nonsense! If an emperor in the Song Dynasty dared to claim that he was the state, he was just waiting to be impeached. If he dared to kill someone, he wouldn't be able to find a single person the next day.
Han Shizhong's new army is a bit jarring. The earlier parts were somewhat logical and the war victory logic was passable, but these are over 20,000 new recruits, just enlisted and untrained. You bring in warhorses and call that 20,000 cavalry? Is that a joke? Less than half a month has passed; many have barely gotten used to riding. To expect them to fight immediately?
I have a plan to easily solve the problem of nomadic tribes in the north, a plan that the United States historically used to deal with Native Americans. Feed cows cow brains, feed sheep sheep brains The former developed mad cow disease from being fed, while the latter developed scrapie in sheep. These cattle and sheep were then transported to the grasslands through gifts, tributes, and trade.
The latest chapter 149 is a bit of a headache. From ancient times to the present, I've never heard of an emperor who went on an incognito trip without guards having a good ending, even if he was a founding emperor. I'm sure if you let Zhu Yuanzhang go on an incognito trip without guards, would he dare? Has the author gotten carried away, or is his thinking off track?
"No emperor can match my driving skills." — Zhao Guangyi
Looking at the table of contents, I noticed that Yue Fei was heavily relied upon from the very beginning. What will happen in the end? Yue Fei was unjustly killed, which is why he is revered and sympathized with by later generations. Is this kind of unrestricted and bottomless trust still the behavior of an emperor?
Honestly, without a system, I reckon even if the protagonist defeats the Jurchens, he'll still be forced to wear the imperial robes and have the throne usurped. What kind of good people do you think soldiers are? You yourself aren't a good person, yet you expect others to be loyal? Without a system, you're destined for slow poisoning; your fate won't be much better than Stalin's or Khrushchev's.
The fact that the Song Dynasty never had a golden age is something many people are aware of. The author only briefly mentions it. The so-called illegitimate acquisition of power and usurpation are not the fundamental reasons why the Song Dynasty lacked a golden age or why it had the most peasant uprisings throughout history.
Forget it; the Song Dynasty emperors were hopeless, they were all cowards.
