Curator note

Traveling back in time to the reign of Emperor Renzong of the Northern Song Dynasty, Xu Ping passed the imperial examination with flying colors, but offended the Empress Dowager and was sent to serve as an official in Lingnan. Starting as a minor official on the frontier, he rose through the ranks and finally achieved success, writing his own legend in the Song Dynasty. Emerging from the chaos of the Five Dynasties period, the Northern Song Dynasty saw the annihilation of powerful clans, the absence of gentry, and the underdevelopment of clan society. The dramatic shifts in social class were unprecedented in peaceful times. Under the rule of the Song Dynasty, there were no longer any lowly people; it was an era where birth did not matter. The son of a servant could become a prime minister, and a common soldier could rise to the rank of army commander. This was the best of times, when anything was possible for an individual. This was the worst of times, when a large, well-equipped standing army suffered repeated defeats, ultimately dragging the entire nation into the abyss. This era changed Xu Ping, and Xu Ping, in turn, changed this era. The rich are the wealthiest in the world; the noble are the most powerful officials. Following in the footsteps of a time traveler, we look back at the distant splendor of the Song Dynasty.

Curator note

In September of the fourth year of the Yongli reign, in order to completely defeat the Ming army under the Lu Regent system entrenched in the Zhoushan Islands, the Qing army first launched a campaign to suppress the anti-Qing forces in Siming Mountain, which were aligned with the Ming forces. In this battle, after defeating the main force of the local Ming army, the Qing army carried out a bloody campaign to cleanse the mountains. From then on, the Siming Mountain region, which had once experienced a population surge due to the ethnic oppression of the Manchus, was no longer able to organize large-scale anti-Qing armed forces. The fall of Siming Mountain directly led to the isolation and lack of support of the Ming army under the Lu Regent system in the Battle of Zhoushan a year later, as well as the complete collapse of the anti-Qing situation in Zhejiang. In July of the fourth year of the Yongli reign, time traveler Chen Wen unexpectedly appeared in this place. On this land once protected by the famous anti-Japanese general Qi Jiguang, he restarted the path of China's military modernization, which had been forcibly interrupted decades ago, in the name of rebuilding the Qi Family Army. From then on, they turned the tide, saved the collapsing edifice, drove out the invaders, restored China, saved the people, and rebuilt Chinese civilization! Book club: 519264778
