The Overall Rise of Asia in 1620

While Portugal and Spain, the old powers, had occupied the main transportation and trade nodes in Asia, the Dutch warships, which were rising later, were gradually sailing into Asian waters and actively competing for trade dominance. The British East India Company, which would become notorious in the future, also stepped up its strategy in Asia, trying to open up new trade routes for the royal family. After Japan's Tokugawa Ieyasu ended the century-old Warring States Period, he showed conservative tendencies in order to consolidate the rule of the shogunate shogunate and curb the expansion of Catholicism. His successors gradually improved the comprehensive lock-down system - leaving only the Netherlands as the only window for external trade; After King Gwanghae of North Korea Yi Hui succeeded to the throne, due to the trauma left by the Imjin Japanese Rebellion, his first priority was to stabilize the regime, so he implemented a comprehensive isolation strategy to isolate the country from the influence of European missionaries; In the forty-eighth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Empire fell into the chaos of "three emperors in one year". At the same time, the Hou Jin Dynasty in Liaodong in the north won a complete victory in the Battle of Sarhu, which shocked Liaodong. Nurhachi's ambition to invade the Ming Dynasty from the south became more and more intense; the chieftains in the southwest took advantage of the "southern troop transfer to the north" to support Liaodong and were ready to take advantage of the chaos to stand on their own. Can Zhu Zhongming, the "cow horse" from later generations, lead the Ming Dynasty to take the lead in the first round of collision between Eastern and Western civilizations and bloom a new flower of civilization in the East? Or will history finally return to its old path: the Qing Dynasty inherits the Ming system and remains locked in isolation until the next revolution knocks on its door?
