The Ming Dynasty Can't Do It, But I Can!

I've seen reports of the Ming Dynasty falling to Emperor Chongzhen, Emperor Wanli, Emperor Jiajing, and Emperors Zhu Di and Zhu Yuanzhang. 🤫

🙂The reason I posted this is because there are fewer people here, so the chances of me spouting nonsense or having my post deleted are probably lower (laughs). There are a few things I don't understand. 1. What I don't quite understand is that you travel back in time to become a great general charging into battle, and you're the one leading the charge.

It's really toxic; novelists love to transplant modern military systems back to ancient times, regardless of whether they're suitable for the social system at the time.

So the Manchus were terrified and fled their capital by a few thousand people. What about the Tang Dynasty, whose capital was captured six or seven times?

How cringeworthy does this description have to be to even be written?!

Why do almost all historical time-travel novels involve soul transmigration, and why do many protagonists have systems or personal spaces? It would be better to write about protagonists being able to travel between the modern era and the ancient era through time-space channels, since there is Einstein's theory of relativity as a basis for this.

Three chapters, what's the protagonist's character like? A border soldier? A merchant? Has he thoroughly read the history of the Ming Dynasty? Otherwise, how could he have imagined that the Ming Dynasty would perish under the Jiajing Emperor?

I won't go into what kind of person Jiajing was; he was a man of unwavering will. His son was murdered, leaving him with only two wives, two of whom had died, and even the imperial physician who saved him had perished. He was burned 21 times. In modern times, anyone who lived in that era would be lucky to survive for several decades.

I looked at a few pictures, and then the capital city was captured! It seems like only Li Zicheng was the last Ming dynasty ruler to lose the capital, and both times it was due to internal instability and a plan to surrender.

Why use modern military systems but cold weapons? It's so awkward! Now that you have money and territory, shouldn't you recruit some craftsmen to develop firearms? In the early stages, you couldn't rely on sheer bravery and fighting, so shouldn't you promote technological advancements now? Otherwise, why did you travel back in time, besides your own ambition and to have more people die?
