The Wind Rises at the End of Ming Dynasty

The author is pretty good, as can be seen from The Age of Huangtian. The author spent a lot of effort to consult information when writing. He describes ancient armaments, battle formations, army systems, and war scenes very well. For me, as a lover of ancient armor and armaments, the author's book is the best in describing these details among historical novels on the Internet.

It is indeed a good book. The descriptions of the war scenes are detailed and vivid, and the details are real. It is different from the ordinary third-rate Internet articles that only cover it in a few strokes. The first time I saw such a realistic and strong work was "A Little Soldier in the Ming Dynasty Frontier Army", but the author Jun Xiaomingsheng showed his strength stably, just like "The World of Huang Tian". Come on, come on! (￣▽￣){"TopicId":"776819114126802944","TopicName":"Praise this novel"}{"TopicId":"575911170507276288","TopicName":"New book recommendation"}

How can I put it this way? In my opinion, this book should be an above-average one. The scene descriptions are very good, and the descriptions of clothing and weaponry are OK. But it is a bit strange. Compared to the previous book The World of Huangtian, the portrayal of the protagonist was not very successful, and it felt a bit condescending. Then it's about description, mixed with a lot of historical materials, and also likes to repeat. The last chapter described more than 100 words of historical materials, and the next one is copied and pasted. Not only copying, but also explaining to you, for fear that you can't understand. This is an old problem of this author. The last book also kept repeating a few sentences, and this one keeps repeating a certain idea, and then introduces the characters, repeating and repeating. Other than that, it's an above-average work. If you can accept this minor flaw, it's worth watching.

It's been a long time since I've seen a novel about the war at the end of the Ming Dynasty. At least it's still very intelligent! There were many fallacies in the war in the late Ming Dynasty. How could Wei win without killing? In an apocalypse, everything goes wrong in every aspect. The only way to create a new world is to repair it and turn it over?

The plot is okay, but the writing is too long-winded and too watery. It takes half a chapter to introduce unnecessary characters and memories. Hundreds of words of other descriptions can be inserted between the conversations between the two people, which makes people just jump around. It is very uncomfortable. No wonder it is not popular.

Author update soon! It's not enough to watch. It looks like it will last a year and a half.

Squeeze toothpaste 🙂 Even a mule wouldn't dare to rest like this

You updated, I kept ordering, it was my fault that the website looked like before, but now you update

The first question: Chen Wang has no woman or children? Answer: Chen Wang traveled through time in the eighth year of Chongzhen, and it is now the twelfth year of Chongzhen Second question: Chen Wang's men Answer: They are clan generals with a blood relationship similar to Cao Cao's Cao family and Xiahou family Third question: Luo Xiaoming's physical condition Answer: I have been following his novels for three years. If you don't believe it, you can read the last one, "The World of the Yellow Sky". The updates of the previous one were very stable. The reason why it is like this now is because of the epidemic. He is an otaku author who stays at home, but his parents are medical staff. The epidemic was originally over. , And then when the epidemic was released, weren't many people infected with Yang? There was no need for him not to go out at that time, but his parents were medical workers. He was infected with Yang, and it was difficult to recover later, but the root cause of the disease was also left. Coupled with difficulty in writing, the Ming Dynasty was not as familiar as the Three Kingdoms. It is difficult to write about the end of Ming Dynasty well. Finally, I say this because many new readers in the comment area do not know the situation. Please explain it and welcome new readers.

Why was the world in chaos at the end of the Ming Dynasty? In fact, scholars at that time had already thought about it and gave the answer. Kong Zhenyi: 70% of the land in Chengdu Prefecture was occupied by the vassal princes. After excluding the military villages, only 10% of the land was left for the common people. Sun Chengze: The superiors asked us to levy beans, rice, bundles of grass, sacks, mules and horses, and pots and pans at every turn. If there was a slight delay, military law was required. These temporary apportionments were already more than the official tax of the court. Qu Shishu: The current performance appraisal standard of the imperial court only cares about whether taxes can be collected, not whether the people live or die. They tortured them frequently, forcing people to sell their children and daughters, and throw themselves into rivers to hang themselves. Wu Yingji: The corvee was too heavy, and the people had to sell their cattle if they couldn't afford the heavy labor silver. If you sell your cattle, you won't be able to farm the land, and if you can't pay taxes, you will have to flee. He fled, and no one was willing to buy his land because he had to pay taxes on the land. In order to ensure that the county's taxes were sufficient, the government asked the fugitive's neighbors to pay more taxes to make up for the shortfall. The lives of the neighbors are already difficult, and no matter how much tax they pay, they will have to escape. Just like this, people in half the county fled. Ma Maocai: There is only one person left in a household, and that person has to pay the tax of the entire household. If there is only one household left in a neighborhood, the household has to pay the tax of the entire household. The people will be damned if they don't flee the famine. Hu Tingyan: The Shaanxi garrison owed more than 150,000 taels of military pay from the 47th year of Wanli to the 6th year of Tianqi. The soldiers first sold their weapons, and then their wives and children. There was really nothing left to sell, so we started grabbing them. Lu Xiangsheng: My soldiers cannot be paid. They don't even have trousers in the winter. It's difficult to eat even one meal a day. I'm afraid I'm about to take a desperate risk. Dai Li: For an army of 10,000 men, the general only uses 6,000 men as military pay to support the army, and the other 4,000 men are used for bribery, consumption, and to support his family. When the war started, he only cared about his own servants and didn't care about the lives of the six thousand people. Feng Qinming: Officers and soldiers went around robbing women, raping women, and burning houses. The people were more scared when they saw them than when they saw thieves. Lianguoshi: The postmen in Shaanxi and Shanxi have never received their full wages. The suffering recently has been ten times worse than before, and no one wants to escape. Get paid quickly! If you don't post it, it's over! Zhang Keli: Our Mizhi County was already hit by a disaster. The court did not exempt taxes at all and doubled the tax collection. All the people ran away. Zheng Zongzhou: The imperial court sent an additional 220,000 yuan to Shanxi, but the grassroots actually collected more than one million yuan. From the beginning of the Apocalypse to the present, there have been disasters every year for four years in Chongzhen, and there is not even a penny for relief every year. Don't the people rebel and wait to die? Lv Weiqi: Henan is so poor that the imperial court has to send more troops to collect and repay the accumulated debts, but it also needs to preemptively collect troops. How can this prevent rogue bandits? Qian Shisheng: Too many people in Fengyang have fled, but the government still collects taxes according to the original amount. This is to force the remaining people to leave! Your Majesty, this is your hometown, please reduce the tax, please, please reduce it... These people were all bureaucrats of the Ming Dynasty and held an anti-peasant army stance. Many of them were later killed when they resisted the peasant army or died fighting against the Qing Dynasty. But even if their buttocks are firmly on the side of the Ming Dynasty, they can see that the main reason why the country has become like this is that the government and wealthy families have done too much to scrape the land. Zhang Sui during the Wanli period actually made it very clear: Heaven opened its doors with floods and droughts, and the gods used violence to drive away the people. This is where the banditry started. Later, as he said: First it was Tianqi Dingmao, and there was a severe drought in Shaanxi. Zhang Yao, the magistrate of Chengcheng County, was very cruel and the people could not bear his poison. There were two kings, and hundreds of people gathered on the mountain. They all painted their faces with ink. Wang Er shouted: "Who dares to kill Zhang Zhixian?" Everyone responded in unison: "I dare to kill!" Three of them broke into the city. The gatekeeper did not dare to resist, so he went straight into the county to kill Yaocai. Then everyone gathered together in the mountain. The severe drought is just a trigger, and "it's so cruel to push the government, and the people can't bear the poison" is the root cause.

The author can go to Linyi, Shandong Province to dig for treasures. My ancestor found about 9 tons of gold in Feixian County to use as military expenses. This batch of treasures was buried during the Huangchao period.

Join the peasant army? Or protect and support the Ming Dynasty? Personally, I am looking forward to joining the peasant army, although this is a more difficult path.

What is professionalism? Is this a major, comrades?

I haven't been in good health the past few days, so I'm really sorry for the delay in updating! I'm much better now, I will definitely write hard!

Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, what are they? They worked hard for Chongzhen. When the people encountered famine, they had no food to eat. The imperial court not only did not reduce taxes, but sent food for disaster relief, it also increased taxes and levies. People starved to death everywhere, and people were eating each other. They were desperate.

It feels like the more you write, the more biased you are. The protagonist wants to rebel, but he has always been a thug in the Ming Dynasty. He has no autonomy at all, and the character design is not good. Your image is like a loyal minister. How will others see you if you rebel? It's like Wang Jingwei attacked the National Government and resisted Japan. How convincing is it? The Taiwanese regime in the Ming Dynasty still has the same surname as Zheng. If you continue to rebel under the banner of the Ming Dynasty, you may not even be as good as him. You may be like Wu Sangui at most. In the end, you can only imitate the Zheng family. But the Zheng family relies on pirates, and pirates are inherently anti-Ming. Therefore, Zheng Zili does not have much internal opposition. If you rebel, many of his own people are Ming Dynasty soldiers, and the Ming Dynasty gentry will not listen to you at all.

In fact, the problem of the Ming Dynasty was the collapse of the constitution. The conflict between land and land annexation in the late Ming Dynasty was not very intense. The peasant uprising began in Shaanxi. Most of the people in Shaanxi in the late Ming Dynasty were homesteaders. Jiangnan, where the land annexation was the most serious, only had slave rebellions, which was far from the level in Shaanxi. Many people say that the landlords and gentry do not pay taxes. When did the literati in the Ming and Qing Dynasties have tax-free privileges? All they have is the right to be exempted from corvee. Many people who have never read history cannot even distinguish between taxes and corvee. They are two different things. In Wu Yingji's "Loushantang Collection", a letter from him is included, which is about what he experienced when he passed by Zhenyang County, Henan Province in the seventh year of the Apocalypse. I set off in the morning and walked sixty miles out of the city. The weather was good. I looked out from the sedan and found that both sides of the road were covered with weeds. However, these areas were clearly once farmland, but had not been cultivated for a long time. I asked the bearer: "Is all the land in your county like this?" The bearer said: "Nine times out of ten, it is like this. Xixian County next door is better, about 40 to 50%." When I arrived at the post station, I saw a few old people and government officials, so I asked them : "So many fields are abandoned, why don't we pay taxes?" They said: "How can such a good thing be a daydream?" I asked: "Since we have to pay taxes, why don't we farm the land? How can we pay taxes if we don't farm the land?" They said: "If there are no cattle, what kind of land can we farm?" I asked: "How can there be no cattle?" They said: "Firstly, there are too many cattle stealers, and secondly, if there are cattle, the government will always send corvees , If you can't bear it, you can only sell the cattle, and eventually everyone escapes. People escape, but they still have to pay the tax, so they are divided among other people in the same village, so more and more people escape, and finally the whole village escapes." I asked: " Why don't you sell the land?" They said: "Whoever buys the land has to pay the tax on the land. Only fools buy this thing." I asked: "Then why don't you go to the county to file a complaint? They looked at me like I was a fool: "The county magistrate has been living in poverty for ten years and has worked thousands of miles as an official just for money. He only cares about raising taxes. Anyone who doesn't pay taxes will be beaten. As for other things, they are too lazy to pay attention to them. Anyone who complains will be beaten." I said: "This is a thoroughfare. So many big officials have to pass by here, no one cares about it?" They said: "Yes, no one cares about it." God is not capable of forcing Chinese farmers to give up their cultivated fields. Only the government can accomplish this big thing. Wu Yingji has been trying to find a way out for this country, but he did not find it until eighteen years later when he died against the Qing Dynasty. But this way out is real. Just fifteen years after he wrote this article, the Chuang army occupied the southern Henan and northern Huguang areas where Wu Yingji had traveled. Nearby Ming Dynasty officials exclaimed that the Ming Dynasty was about to end. "The thief forbids killing to teach farming, and arranges officials to set up officials to confuse the people's hearts and make sure they follow suit." "It is forbidden to kill people, and they will pay for their lives; and they agreed to kill one cow and pay for ten horses." "The thief gave the cow again. Planting is a long-term plan to relieve the poor, livestock and mulberry farmers. "The people are all attached to the thieves but not the soldiers. The thieves have food but the soldiers have no food." The thieves are so vicious that they let the farmers farm. In the same Henan, why are farmers willing to farm after changing the government? Is it because Li Zicheng asked Song Xiance to burn talismans that the weather in Henan was smooth?

🙂🙂

Alas, I would rather be a refugee and start from scratch, accumulating soldiers one by one, fighting with swords and guns, than lingering on this broken ship of the Ming Dynasty, doing nothing. They all found out that they had used a big weapon to kill them, and they couldn't do anything. They had to stay on the Ming Dynasty's broken ship and mend it, unwilling to get off. The plot is written in too much detail, so I'll finish writing Ming Dynasty so that the protagonist can get off the ship.

Advantages: The description of war is okay, the author is good at writing about small and micro battlefields, the characters of historical figures are self-consistent, and the textual research is very diligent. The three views are normal. It does not look at history from the perspective of emperors, generals, and prime ministers. It does not blindly smear the rebels, nor does it deliberately praise the rebels. Disadvantages: I wonder if it is not good at writing about internal affairs. Anyway, this book does not write about internal affairs at all. There are more than 400 chapters about internal affairs, and there is very little pen and ink about the internal affairs talents under his command. The whole book focuses on a long review of historical events, character transformations, changes in historical deductions, and military descriptions. After the Shu Yin Incident was written, there were even fewer war scenes. There is another shortcoming that I personally think, which is also the reason why I did not continue to subscribe. After the plot in Henan started, the protagonist was almost at the same time. Since he was afraid of the expansion of the rebel army in Henan, why didn't he be wiped out in one go? Since you want to use the sword of the rebel army, why not just continue to let it go? You stick to Hanzhong and completely wipe out Zhang Xianzhong and Li Zicheng. You do nothing to accumulate grain and build high walls. Your strategy is messy. You attack and release. No matter how strong your army is, how strong can it be? You have enough soldiers, full pay, flintlocks and bayonets. There is nothing that others can't do. The rebels have done better than you. They even divided the fields for the soldiers. Are all your soldiers your tenants? How can you still strengthen the army? Why do you take over the world?

I'm really sorry to keep you all waiting for so long. It is particularly important to follow up on new book issues. I also ask all book friends to turn to the last page as much as possible even if they are just reading. By the way, I would like to recruit an operating officer for this book. I basically worked on the last book myself. I don't know how to run it myself. I am busy with various activities and writing books, and I don't have much time to manage the book review area. So we are collecting this time. Anyone who is willing to be an operations officer can join the group and apply

It can be seen from "The World of Huangtian" that the quality of his books is guaranteed, and this book is also great. I wish the author this book will be ordered thousands of times, and he will become a god with one book.

New book for pursuit reading! On the importance of pursuit reading. Catch-up reading is especially important during the new book period! Catch-up reading refers to the number of users who have read the latest chapter within 24 hours. The default is valid follow-up, which is an account that has been recharged within three months, even if it is a small recharge of coins. New book exposure resources and subsequent recommendations are all linked to the number of paid readers. So, please don't keep it! Nowadays, it is easy to get addicted to books. As long as it is updated, brothers must read it within 24 hours, or read to the latest chapter. This chapter says that if you post fan creations, peripherals, etc. In the book club, you can add circle value. When the circle value reaches level three, you will have ten fan titles every week and a certain operating fund.

Xiao Ming😡

The book is okay, but I always feel strange while reading it. Many almost identical words will appear repeatedly in other chapters, which makes people feel that it is too ridiculous and watery. I gave up after reading a hundred chapters 😅

Che Zhuglun's words seemed to be objective and were actually private information. A person who had never seen the Qi Jiajun and had not read the military books clearly became speechless and became a strong soldier with just a casual practice. He also kept mentioning in the book that the protagonist was good at training. It seems that many books traveled back in time and liked to follow the Qi Jiajun in training. In fact, modern people are influenced by film and television works. The Qi Jiajun was just an ordinary strong soldier in the Ming Dynasty, and it was just that much better than the strong armies of the same era!

There are biographies written behind Zhang Zhang. It's disgusting to read. I'm afraid that others won't know that he later became emperor. Human life is not valuable in the late Ming Dynasty. The protagonist can't even meet a woman or have a son. A powerful general can't find a woman.

I just started reading this novel and have read more than 40 chapters. The author's writing is really good, the pictures are lifelike and the visual impact is very strong. It makes people feel like they have really traveled back to the Ming Dynasty, and the writing is really good. In other words, this novel is really suitable for being adapted into a TV series. There is really a lack of historical dramas with late Ming themes in China. There has been no TV series with late Ming themes in more than ten years. If you want to edit information about film and television dramas about the late Ming Dynasty, you have to look for TV dramas from more than ten years ago. There is no way, there are too few historical dramas about the late Ming Dynasty. The domestic film and television drama market is seriously lacking in historical dramas with themes of the late Ming Dynasty. After this novel is completed, if it can be made into a TV series, especially a large-scale historical drama. Once filmed, it will definitely become a hit, and it will become a big IP that will become popular all over the country. If it is made into a film and television drama, it will definitely give you the first bite of crab. There is really a lack of historical dramas with late Ming Dynasty themes in China. After all, there are so many late Ming Dynasty novels in China that have not been remade until now. Forget about time-travel dramas about the end of the Ming Dynasty, even historical dramas about the Ming Dynasty have not been filmed in China for many years.

When Xuan is depressed to this point, he goes looking for movies and serious novels. If the emotional line is not well written, then he must avoid it, otherwise it will be more disgusting to include 🪨 in an article that is originally serious.

There is something wrong with this author's view of history. He is essentially on the side of the emperors and generals.
