Winds Rise at the End of Ming

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.

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.

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!

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"}

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.
