Recently, I read the book "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty", and the author's humorous words made me like this book very much. I really admire the author's incisive description of the characters, the struggle and the perfect grasp of the plot. In the book, what impressed me the most was Zhu Yuanzhang, a man from a peasant family, who succeeded in becoming an emperor.
When Zhu Yuanzhang was a child, he suffered from the corrupt rule of the Yuan Dynasty and his family was very poor. Among the emperors in the history of China, he may be the only poor peasant with nothing. It was only through rebellion that he owned the world. Cowherd, beggar, monk, rebel, emperor, a very simple resume. Without education, he can directly lead thousands of troops to compete for the throne. He is a military genius and a personnel management talent. In this case, I have my own opinion: a calm lake can't make a sailor who is not afraid of the wind and waves; Comfortable environment can't make a great man of the times; There is no real hero in a calm world. Zhu Yuanzhang became a great overlord in such a bad environment. It was the hard experience of adolescence that tempered Zhu Yuanzhang and made him mature and scheming.
What I admire most about Zhu Yuanzhang is his various skills: decisiveness, which enables Zhu Yuanzhang to make the most correct judgment in dangerous situations; Persistence can make him break the deadlock when it is deadlocked; Calm, can let him have accurate strategy. Together, these three treasures will enable you to master the method of dealing with the enemy perfectly on the battlefield. If you are decisive, calm and persistent in everything, you will find opportunities in difficulties. In the face of these three skills, I believe that no matter what difficulties I encounter, I will solve them and finally board the other side of success.
Zhu Yuanzhang also taught me confidence. He once said, "I believe I am right". On the way to the door of victory, you will find many keys, some antique and some shiny, but only one key can open the door of victory. When you lead an army to fight, when everything of millions of creatures is in your hands, when you only have one chance to try, not many people can not be nervous, and in war, only one chance is the most appropriate. If you fail, you will lose everything. However, Zhu Yuanzhang was not nervous at the critical moment. He was convinced of his decision and full of confidence before he stepped onto the throne step by step.
Reading a good book is like talking to a noble person. After I saw the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang became my teacher in my life. He taught me the necessary skills such as decisiveness, calmness, persistence and self-confidence. He seems to be telling me that there is no genius in troubled times, but as long as you have all kinds of skills, you will succeed, and your skills can help you climb the peak of success.
Main contents:
first part
Zhu Yuanzhang was born in troubled times, burdened with the death of his parents, and started from abject poverty. He has no background, no background and no dependence. He earned everything by himself. After many hardships, he escaped death countless times, got up from death, buried the bodies of his comrades-in-arms, and then moved on and continued to fight.
It can be said that in that era, the title of the best commander was Zhu Yuanzhang.
After his death, he was passed on to Zhu Yunwen, the son of his eldest son, Zhu Biao, but when Zhu Yunwen came to power, he would cut down the vassals.
Judy, the late prince of Yan, succeeded to the throne in the name of "the battle of Jing Nan". [ 1]
the second part
The content began after the "Battle of Jingnan" when Emperor Yongle ascended the throne. Firstly, the famous deeds of Emperor Yongle in the history of China are described, such as sending troops to the North to levy five Mongolian expeditions, Zheng He's seven voyages to the West, compiling the Yongle Grand Ceremony, and seeking peace in the south. Later, Emperor Yongle died on his way back from the northern expedition to Mongolia, and the Ming Dynasty began to enter a turbulent period after experiencing a relatively clear "benevolent government". Wang Zhen, the great eunuch, ran amok in governing the country, resulting in the loss of 200,000 elite soldiers in the civil fort. Fortunately, Yu Qian, a famous loyal minister, saved the Ming empire in the "Beijing defense", but was killed after the two emperors competed for the throne. This series of events and characters are brilliant, and it can be said that the climax is one after another, which is dizzying and unstoppable.
the third part
After the successful restoration of Ming Yingzong and Zhu Qizhen's "The Change of the Doors", I wrote that loyal and treacherous Zhu Qizhen listened to rumors and killed Yu Qian, the great hero who saved him from danger, which became another big stain left by him in history after the "Change of the Civil Fort". After his death, two emperors, Xian Zong and Xiao Zong, succeeded to the throne one after another. One was weak and helpless, and the other was devoted to the good. However, with Zhu Houzhao's accession to the throne, all kinds of absurd things emerged one after another, and the Ming empire was in jeopardy. ...
part four
Starting with the dispute between Jiajing's accession to the throne and ritual discussion. Emperor Jiajing cleared a group of former ministers and took over the power by the dispute of propriety. Since then, his life has become increasingly corrupt, and he has become immortal with all his heart, leaving state affairs behind, so the treacherous court official Yan Song has been in power for a long time. At the same time, Ming financial emptiness, shuddering. Pirates in the southeast coast and northern Mongolia became the bane of the Ming Dynasty. The author also described in detail the legendary story of Qi Jiguang's resistance to pirates.
The fifth part
The content is divided into two parts, one is internal struggle, and the other is foreign war. After the fall of Yan Song, Xu Jie, Gao Gong and Zhang each used their own means, and you sang and I appeared. All three are doers and have worked hard for the ZTE court; They are also schemers, and they are ruthless in eradicating dissidents. Both of them attach importance to Zhang: the reform left a legacy to the whole people and poisoned the students. The foreign war, that is, aiding Japan in the war of resistance against Japan, is magnificent and unpredictable, and it has also shaped a series of vivid heroes such as Li, Deng Zilong and so on. Although it is also about history, the brushwork of the bright moon in that year is not the brushwork of those history books in the past. Instead, it is a fresh and vivid brushwork full of vitality and vitality. In his works, characters are no longer rigid names and symbols, but living people, and those events are ups and downs, which make people want to stop.
Part VI
It mainly tells the party struggle caused by the "three major cases" in the late Ming Dynasty, the rise of Wei Zhongxian and the battle of Yuan Chonghuan. Since the death of Zhang, no one dared to take care of Emperor Wanli. He didn't go to court for 30 years in order to fight for the country, look up demon books, beat sap, and fight with ministers. As a result, Lindong Party became stronger and stronger. In order to control the state affairs, he fought against Dang Ming of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang, supported Emperor Mingguang and Xizong to ascend to the throne, and successfully seized power. Wei Zhongxian, a commoner, used Xizong's fatuity to unite with the emperor's wet nurse Hakka to fight against Lindong Party. After foreign aid to War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the Ming defense line moved to Liaodong. The nobility didn't lag behind. Li defeated Mongolia, wiped out Nuzhen (except Nuerhachi tribe) and became a lean generation. However, because Nurhachi flattered him and raised a tiger, Nurhachi took the opportunity to rise and unified the late Jin Dynasty. In order to resist gold, defend the city and seize lost territory, under the leadership of Sun Chengzong, Yuan Chonghuan grew from a scholar to a frontier general, stuck to the isolated city and finally defeated Nurhachi.
final result
This paper analyzes and combs the whole history of the Ming Dynasty, which makes people think that the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty had many legends since his birth. There have been different opinions about whether Chongzhen is an incompetent emperor or a man trying to rise. In any case, this is a cruel era and a wonderful one. During this period, the post-Jin forces in the north rose rapidly through the operation of Nurhachi. After Nurhachi's death, Huang Taiji acceded to the throne. It was during this period that Yuan Chonghuan stepped onto the stage of history. The author of this article tells us that Yuan Chonghuan, a national hero, is only a second-rate character in history. Why do you comment like this? Because we don't know enough history, there are many unknown secrets behind it. As for the cause of Yuan Chonghuan's death, it is quite different from the history we knew before: a power and interest dispute that had nothing to do with him sent him to death. The unrest in Daming has just begun, and then various rebel armies broke out in Shaanxi and other places. Maybe you know Li Zicheng and Zhang, but do you know that Xue, Cao Cao and Liu Bei also reached the end of the Ming Dynasty? This is definitely not through the scenes in the novel. And do you know that there are rebel teams called "forced to go on the road", "lone light", "a cloud" or even "three hands"
