Zhaowu of the Southern Ming Dynasty

After this group of people came, they vented all kinds of things, and they didn't know what they thought the Ming Dynasty established by Zhu Yuanzhang had done to his family.

The Southern Ming Dynasty is still too weak. No matter how poorly the Yangtze, Huaihe, and Yellow Rivers are used, they can still be used as the Eastern Jin and Southern Song Dynasties. It is not difficult to integrate the resources of the entire south and unify the world. The population and economic strength of the south have surpassed that of the north. If we simply improve the gunpowder and use the musketeers for frontal defense, use the navy to clear out the army's hometown, we can win the war of resource consumption. It's a pity that until Nanming there was no talent like Wang Dao Zhao Gou, let alone a monster like Liu Xiu😁

Tiantian Xiaosizi is the Manchu name for Xiaosizi. Isn't it disgusting? The Ming Dynasty is not like this. It thinks it is very humorous.

The problem in the late Ming Dynasty was ultimately a food problem. If we could not solve the problem of more people and less food, we would not be able to change the fate of eventual collapse. In the agricultural era, for every one degree drop in average temperature, production in the Yellow River area would decrease by 10 to 20%, and in the Great Wall area would decrease by 30 to 40%. The 30% to 40% reduction in grain production does not mean that a small number of people have no food to eat, but that most people have no food to eat for three to four months a year. Those who have nothing to eat will grab grain, and those who have food to eat will guard it. The two sides are fighting, which will affect grain production and cause more people to have nothing to eat. The Qing Dynasty was able to conquer the world only because it solved the people's food problem. How did it solve it, you ask? Just get rid of the excess population! Assuming that the food in a county can only feed 50% of the population, then as long as 50% of the population is killed, wouldn't the problem of food and clothing be solved? The Zhu Youjian brothers only failed because they were unwilling to massacre civilians on a large scale like the Dorgon brothers.

I excerpted a section of the configuration of the Eight Banners' troops and horses from the Qing Dynasty's official "Records of Shunzhi", hoping to give the author and readers a reference for understanding the Eight Banners: The number of horses and men below the garrison general, above the armored men, and the number of horses are determined for the expedition. The prince has four hundred horses. The prince and three hundred horses. Baile and two hundred horses. Beizi and one hundred and fifty horses. There are one hundred horses and one hundred horses in the town. Assist the Duke and eighty horses. Before entering Bafen Town, the Duke of Guo had seventy horses. Assist the Duke and sixty horses. General and eighty horses. Counselor, seventy horses. The commander of the guard army, the commander of the vanguard, Mele Zhangjing, and sixty horses each. The commander of the protective army, Meile Zhangjing, and forty horses each were appointed. Forward officer, Jia La Zhangjing, Shu Jia La Zhangjing, first-class bodyguards, and thirty-five horses each. Idle Zhang Jing, forward guards, second-class guards, and twenty-five horses each. Department Zhang Jing, third-class bodyguards, and eighteen horses each. There are twelve horses each for the Military Guard School and the Riding School. There are eight horses for each of the military academy and the riding academy. There are six Xiaobo Shiku, six guards and six horses each. Armored men and four horses each. Bachelor of the Inner Academy, the same as Mele Zhangjing. He studied as a bachelor, the same as Jia La Zhang Jing. Attendant reading is the same as idle Zhang Jing. His Chihaha fan is the same as the Hu Military Academy and Xiaoqi Academy. 11. Volume 14 of Shunzhi Records. From the above historical data, it can be seen that when the Eight Banners went out, the lowest armored men had four horses, and the princes at the top brought four hundred horses. On average, it was basically five horses per person. They would definitely not be able to take care of so many horses. This led to a group, that is, the conquering Aha. Each armored man has to lead two Aha, one is responsible for guarding the camp, and the other is responsible for leading the horses. Therefore, if we see three thousand Manchu cavalry going on an expedition in history books, we must not take the literal meaning of it as three thousand men, but three thousand armored soldiers, six thousand Aha auxiliary soldiers, and fifteen thousand horses. With such a configuration of troops and horses, it is not difficult to defeat tens of thousands of infantry. This is also the main reason why the Eight Banners soldiers often appear in history books to be ten times more powerful than the Ming army. In actual combat, not only the strength of the troops must be counted, but also the horse power. According to the standard of one horse equaling three soldiers, a cavalry of 3,000 and one horse can equal 30,000 infantry. This is This is also the reason why a mere 70,000 Manchurian Eight Banners can overthrow the Ming Dynasty. It is not 70,000 Manchurian Eight Banners but 70,000 Manchurian cavalry. If that is not enough, then there are 70,000 Mongolian cavalry. Forget it, Shunzhi not only has Manchu uncles, but also Mongolian uncles.

In this era, the best weapon against the Manchus was smallpox. Send smallpox-resistant soldiers to Qing army strongholds and camps, as well as throughout the city of Beijing, to deliver clothing and valuables contaminated with smallpox virus

You can't write randomly when writing a novel, right? Farmers pay a tax of 3 taels per year, and landless people pay a tax of 5 taels. Do you know how much this is? Do you know how much Chongzhen's expedition to Liaoxiang cost? If you write it like this, then Southern Zhili will be calculated as 30 million people. The minimum annual head tax is 90 million taels

The earliest character for Wu was carrying a sword and traveling in all directions. I don't know why it is said that it has become a force to stop fighting.

Nanming is not easy to write about. It is colder than the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms and the Southern and Northern Dynasties.

King Fu and King Lu are both dirty things!

The four towns in Jiangbei, plus Zuo Liangyu, had an army of nearly one million. Except for Huang Gong, they did not obey the orders of the imperial court at all. After all, they dared not even obey the orders of Emperor Chongzhen, let alone the small imperial court of the Southern Ming Dynasty. Unless the time traveler cheats, based on the performance of the useless protagonist in this book, Hong Guangchao is going to be destroyed. He is still complacent and does not have a thousand troops. What the heck, does he have military common sense? The more you dance, the faster you die

The problems in the Southern Ming Dynasty were huge. The biggest problem was the landlord class south of the Yangtze River. Because the slave rebels supported the Manchu Qing in the north to suppress the slave rebels, the Eight Banners military ruling group in the early Manchu Qing Dynasty cooperated with the landlord class. Finally, the Manchu Qing emperor cooperated with the landlord class and changed the original Eight Banners Council into a feudal group based on local landlord autonomy.

Will you write about colonization later? After defeating the Manchus, in the middle and later stages, I still want to see how to fight foreigners 🙂

At first glance, this time traveler protagonist is not that exciting. I feel that it is better to read Er Feng and Brother Xiu in the history books. They are really the children of destiny. I am also reading a novel about Song Xiu, who is also a time traveler. He time travels and becomes the eldest son of Zhao Da. The author wrote him in the direction of Er Feng. It is fun to read.

Shen Yunying, Hou Tongzeng and Huang Chunyao.

Do all the novels you open have multiple female protagonists?

I can't find this book in the dark reading world

It's very well written, I'll give it a monthly ticket for more updates. As for whether the Taiping Army could dig tunnels to attack the city. As for playing the Eight Banners, you can also use car formations.
