Losing Control in the Ming Dynasty

I can understand the author's imaginative ideas, but so far, the writing style is insufficient to support them; it's too disorganized, and the character development and content depth are practically nonexistent 😥. The battle scenes are also glossed over almost like a diary entry 🤤. Some Ming Dynasty fans might be able to keep reading based on nostalgia, and I hope to see the author improve as I continue reading.

The talk of expelling the Tartars and rebuilding China is too far-fetched and unrealistic for ordinary people. They're too idealistic; they just want food from those in power and don't really care who's above them. Zhu Yuanzhang's greatness lies in the fact that he was the only one—and even today, including the ancient Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties—to give land to farmers.

Does anyone actually read this kind of book? The Ming Dynasty is gone. Shouldn't Emperor Zhu have reflected on this? So many vassal kings. The pig-raising policy. How much public funds were wasted? And those founding imperial nobles. They can't time travel. Shouldn't they have reflected on this and learned from the lessons? What is this even about? Pure, mindless pretentious posturing. It's pointless.

Looking for Zhu Yuanzhang at the end of the Ming Dynasty? Zhu Yuanzhang was already outdated at that point. It would be more interesting to compare him to the Northern Expeditionary Army two hundred years later.

The main problem is that they might spread rumors about your logistics. And the soldiers will miss home. Besides, the timeline is too messy.

It's well-written but a bit messy. I suggest assigning world numbers and names, and starting with the world name each time the world number changes.

The idea is good, but the writing is a bit messy.

Yeah, you can't rashly invest in a writer like that who has no professional standards and just cuts ties without even saying a word.

The problems at the end of the Ming Dynasty were the collapse of grassroots organizations since the Wanli era, the neglect of water conservancy facilities, and years of natural disasters that brought production in the north to a standstill—even a miracle couldn't save them. After all, people need to eat.

The subject matter is really appealing, but it's so chaotic it makes my head spin.
