Chongzhen and Ming Dynasty: Starting from Meishan

After reading the last three chapters, I feel that the author has spent so much time writing about the dialogue between Chongzhen and Gao Hongtu, which is a bit like a duck. It is strange that you modern people can convince Gao Hongtu when talking about the industrial revolution with ancient literati. You can't convince him at all.

Good book, I hope the author will add more chapters every day

The main character disappears as I write it, and then comes out again after a few chapters, and then disappears again. I'm afraid this book has no main character! So are we looking at a light?

There is a fee to read something like this, and it is written in a messy way. I take it for granted and I really can't stand it.

To be honest, the sentence "One hundred thousand soldiers and one hundred thousand soldiers" after the last sentence is too flattering to the scholars of the late Ming Dynasty. It's really one hundred thousand people and one hundred thousand insects. They are all the seeds of corrupt officials. Let me show you that by the end of the Ming Dynasty, all living members will disappear, and the Ming Dynasty can last at least another 100 years.

It feels like the familiar swordsman is back. It's similar to the beginning of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds between Hun San and Chu Han. Looking forward to the follow-up, and one more thing, you should have come back to write historical articles long ago. You always complain that the anti-war articles are dancing in shackles, why don't you move. The tree moves the dead and the person moves the living. I like the bloody war scenes you wrote the most! It doesn't have to be about the Anti-Japanese War theme! Personally, I think the heroic protagonists in the historical novels you wrote before are more attractive and better-looking, including the protagonist Zhu Ma! They are all like the founding emperors. They are so well-written that they should use their own strengths!

I found some pictures of armor weapons. The first picture is from the early Ming Dynasty. The second picture is from the mid-Ming Dynasty. The third picture is from the late Ming Dynasty. Restoration and redrawing of the 4th Emperor's Patrol Map. The 5th and 6th were the elite of the Nine Sides in the late Ming Dynasty.

Why did the Ming Dynasty collapse? Because no one paid taxes, the world was annexed by the gentry. If you don't tear it down again and make them pay taxes, it will be over.

The author uses modern ideas to describe the story of the late Ming Dynasty, without the weight of historical literature at all. We choose to completely ignore the differences in status between kings, ministers, people, slaves, generals, princes, etc. Many words could not have been spoken by the minister at that time, but the author wrote them out without any worries, which is very dramatic. The author has a deep understanding of military affairs, at least better than me, but the author's understanding of Confucianism, imperial examinations, and Confucian scholars in the late Ming Dynasty seems to be very shallow. Perhaps the author understands, but for the sake of readers and the market, he ultimately chose to castrate himself. The author's writing style is very good, but he seems to have chosen to give up quality in order to keep it updated. There are many places that should be very flavorful based on the author's level, but in fact these places have not been carefully crafted because the author is in a hurry. This is my biggest experience after reading this book. I paid to read the first half, but after several reviews, the author himself persuaded me: This book is not suitable for me. It's a pity that a good book and a good author chose to castrate themselves.

When Chongzhen was still alive, he sent five people to Beijing to serve as kings: Wu Sangui, Gao Di, Liu Zeqing, Gao Jie, and Tang Tong. Wu Sangui and Gao Di honestly accepted the order and entered the pass. However, after entering the pass, they crawled slower than a tortoise. Until Chongzhen hanged himself, they had not left the boundaries of Yongping Mansion. Liu Zeqing reported that he was loyal and patriotic, and originally wanted to fight to the death with Li Chuang. Unfortunately, he fell off his horse and was injured two days ago, so he might not be able to come. After hearing the news, Chongzhen sent someone to comfort Liu Zeqing. Liu Zeqing was very moved and immediately ordered his troops to flee south. As for Gao Jie: "What are you talking about? I can't hear clearly without my glasses." Only Tang Tong brought eight thousand people to Beijing, and Chongzhen rewarded him with four thousand taels of silver. Tang Tong thought about it, Li Zicheng recruited eight retired general soldiers in Yulin and gave them 50,000 taels of silver. The average person was more than 6,000 taels. As a serving general soldier, the emperor only gave me 4,000 taels. Although it was a little less, it was still acceptable. Then he learned that the four thousand taels were awarded to his entire army, half a tael of silver to each person, and forty taels to himself. Moreover, Chongzhen also sent him a eunuch as a supervisor. Tang Tong was so angry that the three corpse gods jumped violently, and the five spirits soared into the air. After leaving the palace gate, he threw the things Chongzhen had rewarded on the ground: "In the eyes of the emperor, I am worse than a slave!" He immediately rushed out. As a result, there was no one to guard the capital, and Chongzhen was hanged on the coal mountain. So, if Chongzhen arrives in Nanjing, can Zuo Liangyu, Huang Degong, Gao Jie, Liu Zeqing, and Liu Liangzuo be given more military pay than Emperor Hongguang? Can we give them a larger territory? You don't get much military pay or land, so you expect to rely on "legitimacy" to invite hundreds of thousands of soldiers to die? If Gao Jie and Liu Zeqing were willing to die, they would have died in Beijing. If Zuo Liangyu was willing to die, the grass on their graves would be three feet high now, so why wait until now. Tiduoduo is considered a bully. Let's just say that Zhun Ta, who went south from the Shandong branch, with the two generals Ke Yongsheng and Xia Chengde, even the Eight Banners and the Green Battalion, only had more than 10,000 people. The hundreds of thousands of Ming troops in the north of the Yangtze River had the ability to annihilate these more than 10,000 people? Obviously not, otherwise, could the Qing army be allowed to enter the fortress and plunder six times? Li Zicheng cannot defeat Duduo's main force. The Jianghuai Ming Army allows Li Zicheng to defeat the remaining remnants. How can they be expected to achieve any results. With Chongzhen's temper, Shi Kefa might have been imprisoned in imperial prison immediately after the Suizhou Incident. No matter who is the emperor in Nanjing, whether it is King Fu, King Lu, King Gui, the prince, or Chongzhen himself, the time they will be emperor does not depend on themselves, but on how long Li Zicheng can persist in the north. As long as the Qing army was free and had time to attack Jiangnan, the Nanjing court would have to blow out the lamp and pull out the wax.

I feel that this book is generally good, but I did not consider one issue: after Emperor Chongzhen's 17 years of hard work and the deception of countless loyal ministers, who would still dare to believe his promises?

Before Chongzhen went to Meishan, his wife and daughter both died. If he ran away from Meishan, what would the two sons think (should they prevent patricide), and what would the nobles think? From this we can imagine his character that he can recruit people even when he comes to Nanjing. Basically, he was sentenced to death in the first chapter. Even if you dress up as a prince, you can win the hearts of the nobles by paying 2,000,000 yuan to the king. At the beginning, the hearts of the people are broken. How to play? Just pure intention? In order to post this comment, I also spent 15 points to buy a chapter.

The front is pretty good. Since the victory in Xuzhou, when dealing with issues in Yangzhou, they have been belittling the eunuchs and praising the merchants and civil servants. During this period, blindly suppressing one's own slaves and showing favor to other forces is a sign of very immature politics. Maybe it's because the author is on the government and business side, and the core ideas of these chapters have changed drastically, so let's wait and see for the time being.

This is the novel about the late Ming Dynasty that suits me best. It doesn't cover military affairs or internal affairs, and it doesn't ruin the entertainment of the novel. It couldn't be better.

The author of this book doesn't understand politics at all. In the book, after Chongzhen dug a hole for the Donglin Party and won a comprehensive victory in the struggle, he let the enemy go easily and only killed more than 20 people. Even those nobles were not punished and promised never to lose their titles. The grave crime of regicide and rebellion only killed more than twenty people. The author was simply joking. This kind of behavior may seem to the author to be lenient, but in fact this kind of behavior is a kind of political suicide. You can keep your word, keep your promises, and abide by the rules, but you can't still take action even if you win the fight. This will only make the enemy feel your weakness, and the punishment will be so light, so they will dare to continue to do this next time. In addition, the decision to never win the title is also wrong. This is not even as good as the Manchu and Qing Dynasties. The Manchu and Qing Dynasties all knew that the title should be reduced by one level every other generation, otherwise they would not be able to afford it later.

Who is he who goes to the widow's bed and persuades prostitutes to be good?

Nonsense, remove all the eunuchs, create two opposing camps of civil servants, and confuse the operation. Don't you know that the emperor kills eunuchs at will? You can't kill civil servants indiscriminately, otherwise all the scholars in the world will be in chaos. As an emperor, you still don't understand that it is much easier to control eunuchs than civil servants.

Dare to copy the modern financial system, don't dare to copy the steam engine, if you don't want to copy, just don't copy it, but directly assert that you don't want to climb the technological tree, it's pure ** behavior

I don't know why the author of Qidian thinks that the Ming Dynasty was technologically backward? Don't any of you understand history? In terms of mathematics, physics, chemistry and astronomy, the Ming Dynasty was infinitely better than Europe in the same century! In addition, without the introduction of scientific knowledge from the Song Dynasty and Ming Dynasty to Europe, would there have been a Renaissance with those savages in Europe? Our family has such a strong foundation. If someone abolishes Confucianism and lets a hundred flowers bloom, who will get Europe to start the Age of Discovery? Also, how do you think Christmas in the West came about? I think it is precisely because when the Ming Dynasty was trading with the West, all the goods from the Ming Dynasty arrived in the West around December 25th in the Gregorian calendar, so this time became Christmas in the West! In addition, many so-called histories in the West have the shadow of ancient Chinese culture, so I think it is possible that part of the Yongle Ceremony of the Ming Dynasty flowed into the West, which led to the great development of economic science in the West!

After reading more than 300 chapters dealing with the Donglin Party members, I can't stand it anymore. They are all rebels and rebels and yet they are so carefree. Still so compromising. It is not consistent with Pig's Foot at all. After all, Pig's Foot is a figure who single-handedly saved a country that was about to be destroyed in more than a year. He holds military power in his hands, and it is a time traveled by modern people. He can be regarded as the founder of the country. I really don't know that he is so cowardly when it comes to dealing with party disputes. The Donglin Party dare not kill all of them, but they dare not directly kill some of them.

The situation is really big. After being single for a long time, a talented girl finally appeared. She handed over to the prince and then licked Li Xiangjun's shoes like crazy! Will the time traveler regard the son of his predecessor as his own?

It feels like the war strategy is taken for granted. During Tianqi and Chongzhen years, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties were fortified by the Great Wall, Yanshan Mountain, and hundreds of thousands of border troops. They were able to cross thousands of miles and penetrate deep into Shandong, Hebei, and even Henan to continue their raids. It makes no sense for you to build a Xuzhou fortress so that the Qing Dynasty can't cross over and sweep it? Forcefully hold back the Manqing? The Manchu Qing did not attack Beijing for so many years, but continued to wreak havoc in North China without worrying about their retreat. Could it be that Xuzhou's location is even worse than Beijing's? This way, even if Ming wins, it will feel meaningless.

Isn't it easier to discipline domestic slaves than to discipline civil servants? There are also two groups of civil servants, one fool, all the power of eunuchs comes from the emperor

Generally speaking, there are no historical flaws, but it is a good article. Many things are taken for granted, but I can continue reading. I saw that Li Xiangjun was appointed as a support general in the battle of Xuzhou. It was really disgusting to me, and I gave up. 😰😰😰

Forcibly increasing the difficulty, I made a flintlock gun and worked hard for a long time. In order to make the Qing Dynasty stronger, I turned around and asked Tang Ruowang to conjure it up and give it to the Qing Dynasty, and gave it to the Qing Dynasty in batches. It's disgusting to force yourself to increase the difficulty and delay time.

After seeing more than 300 pictures, I really can't stand it anymore. Lower your own IQ first and then lower your opponent's IQ. . . Head pain

The weight of the white-armored soldier's triple armor is 79 kilograms. With various other weapons, the load is about 90 kilograms. He can fight for half a day with a weight of about 90 kilograms. He can climb over walls as if it were flat ground. No wonder people scold you. You have no common sense at all. What you are describing is not a human being. That is super. Humans, this kind of special forces basically exists in every dynasty. In normal operations, they only need one heavy armor. The triple armor is used to open up situations, such as breaking the formation, and breaking up the enemy formation immediately. They will not fight for too long, because human physical strength cannot support such a long-term heavy-duty battle.

After reading Chapter 242, I decided to give up. The author's understanding of war, battlefields, and high-level elites is too shallow, probably due to lack of experience. There are many unreasonable plots about the battlefield in the book. The image, personality, and mental outlook of the relevant characters are not consistent with their identity and background. It is really intolerable, and it has affected the plot direction and logical credibility. It's not like I've never read high-quality fiction, but I really don't have the patience to continue reading, and would rather try other books.

This is the best thing written since Swordsman Warlord

I have a good feeling about this book overall, but the protagonist establishes a constitutional monarchy for himself, and he still does it while holding great power. This does not mean that he directly delegates power to civilian officials, which is a bit crazy. Now that I have read about 300 chapters, overall I would give it an 8 out of 10. If we really want to establish a constitutional monarchy, I would give it a 6.
