"Wait, don't rush to hurt the spring and the autumn."

"Is what Chen Tong said right?"

"He said that Hong Chengchou supported the bandits, and he went so far as to frame Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng. His heart is damning!"

"That's all you need to criticize Hong Chengchou, why do you criticize Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng?"

"Lu Xiangsheng and Sun Chuanting died for the Ming Dynasty."

………………

Chen Tong shook his head.

Chen Tong:

"Is martyrdom contradicting self-respect for the bandits?

Do not!

No contradiction at all.

Why would you die for your country?

It's not that they first raised the bandits to be self-respecting, and finally turned the entire dynasty into a mess.

They couldn't clean up in the end, so they took the last step.

Do you really think they are heroes of the Ming Dynasty?

Simply ridiculous!

Let me tell you, none of these people are good, they are basically sinners.

They have done a lot to demolish the walls of the Ming Dynasty and oppress the people.

The evil deeds they have done are also called too many to write.

Military generals are not much better than civil servants. "

………………

Chongzhen's head was buzzing at the moment, he was in a daze, even more demented than Jia Baoyu.

Through Chen Tong's narration before, he even thought that people like Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng were the pillars of the country.

And Sun Chengzong, who established the Guan Ning Jin line of defense, is simply a white jade pillar that supports the sky, and a purple golden beam that supports the sea!

But now that he understands these things, his perception of these people has completely changed.

He doesn't know how to look at the whole world now.

Is there really no good person in the last years of the Ming Dynasty?

That world is too cruel.

…………

The emperors are very heavy at the moment, because the problems that occurred in the last years of the Ming Dynasty were more serious than those in the last years of the Tang Dynasty.

At least in the last years of the Tang Dynasty, corruption was not like this, and even in the last years of the Han Dynasty, there was still existence for the country and the people.

Then there are people like Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Quan, etc., as well as Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu and others.

But what about the end of the Ming Dynasty?

Isn't it a thing that one is better than the other?

Is this the result of the widespread dissemination of Confucianism?

It's terrible!

First Empress Dowager (Yanhuang First Empress):

"The people of the Ming Dynasty were really miserable."

"I met such a group of irresponsible gentry nobles!"

"They actually completely disregarded the life and death of the people of the dynasty for their personal interests!"

"It's too inhuman, and even a little basic bottom line has been lost."

………………

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were red, wishing he could come to that era in person and kill him to turn the world upside down!

There is no need to make a plan at all, why kill fifteen corrupt officials a day.

As long as they were officials at the end of the Ming Dynasty, all of them were cut off, and no one was wronged!

"Bastards, all bastards!"

Zhu Yuanzhang raised his knife and roared angrily. He really wanted these people to know what it means to be angry when the emperor is angry.

Starting from herding cattle (one emperor through the ages, the father of the modern system):

"Li Grassland, is this the savior of the Ming Dynasty you boasted about?"

"Is this the hero of the Ming Dynasty that you think is not bad?"

"That's it?"

………………

Li Zicheng was also very depressed at the moment, he clenched his fists tightly, and his nails poked his palms so painfully.

He didn't hate Lu Xiangsheng, Sun Chuanting, Hong Chengchou and others, but hated Chen Tong so much that he was obviously talking nonsense.

He finally realized how abominable these ignorant people are!

In fact, Li Zicheng knew that Hong Chengchou was not a good guy, because he had cooperated with Hong Chengchou many times.

But he still felt in his heart that Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng should be regarded as good officials.

And when Sun Chuanting died, he still gave Sun Chuanting a lot of respect, allowing Sun Chuanting to wrap his body in horse leather and bury the whole body.

If it was anyone else, he would have fed them all to the dogs.

He felt that Chen Tong was deliberately discrediting Sun Chuanting and others.

The people do not pay:

"Don't believe that Chen Tong is talking nonsense here, so he maliciously slandered Lu Xiangsheng and others."

"How could they join forces with Hong Chengchou?"

"Hong Chengchou may have colluded with the bandits, but Sun Chuanting and Lu Xiangsheng absolutely will not!"

"They are all people who died for the Ming Dynasty."

"How is it possible to do such a thing?"

………………

Qin Shihuang was also upset when he heard it, and he had a faint premonition.

Can you really see how corrupt a dynasty is at the end of a dynasty?

He still couldn't accept it.

No matter how bad it was at the end of the Han Dynasty, it didn’t become like this. No matter how bad it was at the end of the Tang Dynasty, there was still some bottom line. How did it become like this in the Ming Dynasty?

In fact, he also hoped that Chen Tong was talking nonsense. After all, as the emperor, he cared most about the people at that time.

If these heroes who are extolled by others are like this, what kind of pain should the people bear?

Who will save them?

Great Qin True Dragon:

"Chen Tong, you must clarify this matter!"

"I even think you're exaggerating."

"Isn't there one or two truly ethical people in a dynasty?"

………………

Chen Tong's eyes were also full of grief and indignation. Whenever he studied this period of history, he would cry for those innocent people.

If it was brought to the common people, Chen Tong would feel the despair and fear like the Nine Nether Hell.

Chen Tong:

"Actually, I also want to believe that they are all good people, but their strength does not allow it!

Maybe you all think Sun Chuanting, Lu Xiangsheng, Zuo Liangyu, they are not bad.

But think about it, where does their military expenditure come from?

Sun Chuanting's Qin Army, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army, Yuan Chonghuan and Zu Dashou's Guanning Cavalry, Zuo Liangyu and Hong Chengchou also had their own troops.

You may not understand the nature of these armies.

These armies are not formal formations supported by the imperial court.

They are completely private armed forces, you can call it a private army!

All expenses of these armies are borne by the generals of the armies.

In other words, each of Lu Xiangsheng and the others can raise an army.

Who do you think has such financial capability?

Do you know how much it costs to raise an army?

And most of them raise the most elite cavalry,

Take your most trusted Lu Xiangsheng as an example, he has the smallest army, and there are 2000 strong troops.

That is Qing Yishui's cavalry, and it is equipped with the most advanced firearms, how much do you think he will spend?

Maybe you don't know much about the cost of cavalry, so let me tell you a more accurate figure.

In ancient times, the cost of raising a cavalry was roughly equal to 10 to 20 ordinary infantry.

Let me calculate the minimum for you, the cost of one cavalry is equal to ten infantry,

In other words, Lu Xiangsheng alone supported [-] regular troops.
