Turbulence at the End of the Ming: My Name Is Chen Sanfeng

Chen Molin, courtesy name Sanfeng, with the "feng" meaning madman!

When Qian Qianyi tried to recruit him, Chen Molin asked, "Is the Yangtze River cold?"

When Li Zicheng's rebel army reached Yizhou, Li said, "We can't afford to provoke Chen Sanfeng. Let's go around him and head straight for the capital!"

Before Chongzhen was forced to hang himself, he said, "If only I had known, I would have acted differently! I regret not listening to Sanfeng. I regret it!"

When Dorgon entered the Central Plains, Chen Molin said, "Let that bastard Dorgon try coming to Yizhou. I'll beat him to death!"

When the Southern Ming court asked Chen Molin to send troops, he replied, "What do I care if you live or die? Give me back my brother! Otherwise, there's nothing to discuss!"
