Travel Through Chongzhen and Create ZTE with Modern Knowledge

Zhong Hua, a modern history enthusiast, immersed himself in studying the historical materials of the late Ming Dynasty until early in the morning. After falling into a deep sleep, he had a dream of traveling through the Ming Dynasty and becoming the Chongzhen Emperor who was about to ascend the throne. At that time, the Ming Dynasty was in the Little Ice Age. Drought was raging for thousands of miles. Internally, there were widespread refugees and corruption in the government. Externally, there was an existential crisis of the late Jin Dynasty and frequent border troubles. It was like a doomsday scene in which the building was about to collapse. Armed with a vision and strategy beyond the times, Zhong Hua shouldered the heavy responsibility of saving the country. He selected talented people, organized the government, strictly investigated illegal clans, nobles and eunuchs, confiscated stolen money to replenish the national treasury, reduced taxes, provided work-for-relief, built water conservancy and transportation, promoted corn, potatoes and other drought-resistant crops, and alleviated the root cause of famine. He reformed and reformed internal affairs, reorganized the army and strengthened national defense, and single-handedly raised up the crumbling Ming Dynasty.
