Words written at the end of the volume
The first volume was completed, 640,000 or 650,000, the author did not pay attention.
This volume from the beginning of April of the first year of the Yongli calendar, to the end of May of the fifth year of the Yongli calendar, the time span is as long as four years, the characters have been refined again and again, there are still a lot, the scene also includes Nanao Island, Chaozhou, Zhao'an County, Zhangzhou Prefecture, Guangzhou and the left and other places, the content is relatively rich, the events that occurred in Fujian and Guangdong provinces in recent years are basically covered, I believe that readers can greatly understand the overall situation at that time and the details of some historical events more clearly.
In terms of ideas, such a long article describes Zheng Chenggong's early activities on the one hand, and focuses on Chen Kai's growth on the other hand, whether it is the growth of experience and ability, or psychological changes. Finally, it ends with the mending knife Shi Lang, which ends the early activities of the two.
Historically, Zheng Chenggong started his army from burning clothes in the Confucian Temple in his hometown in the second year of Longwu, and went through ups and downs, from a small army of only about 90 people, to the most powerful and staunch resister of the anti-Qing movement along the southeast coast with tens of thousands of armor and thousands of ships of all sizes. And the appearance of Chen Kai made this anti-Qing armed force even more powerful than in history.
Is it just that there is one more Chaozhou Prefecture and one Zhangzhou Prefecture Zhao'an County lacking two counties in the occupied area, as well as the hundreds of thousands of people rescued from Guangzhou and the growing military industrial giant Nanao Ordnance Bureau? No, it's not that simple, all of this, including those that have not yet been revealed, will bloom into a new shape after a period of fermentation.
About Zheng Chenggong, this story begins with Chen Kai's rise within the Zheng Group, and Zheng Chenggong inevitably became the first match.
Regarding Shi Lang, the author has checked many historical records, as described in the article, he has ability, but he has a narrow personality, despicable means, and low political struggle ability. Relying on nothing more than his own ability, Zheng Chenggong's cherished talents, and the strength of the Shi family within the Zheng Group, when the proportion of the Shi family's power within the Zheng Group declines and Zheng Chenggong's tolerance for him reaches the limit, the conflict will inevitably break out. Historically, Shi Lang descended to the Qing Dynasty, and his treatment and circumstances were far inferior to that of another Zheng rebel general Huang Wu, if it weren't for his in-law Huang Xigon's worship of the prime minister, Huang Xigon's in-law Yao Qisheng presided over the platform and Huang Wu's early death, Shi Lang, who had been reduced to the point of relying on his wife to be a female celebrity to support him, basically did not have the possibility of resurrection.
Regarding the outbreak of the conflict between Zheng Chenggong and Shi Lang, at the beginning of the first volume, some readers thought that it was a pity for Shi Lang to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, with all due respect, this was nothing more than the influence of those who washed Shi Lang and the opinion of Zhuge afterwards - there is no pity in this, if Zheng Chenggong does not start, Shi Lang will destroy the unity within the Zheng Group, without unity, how can there be the later Zhenjiang victory and Xiamen Hai victory?
The first volume is over, and the second volume is about to set sail. For the second volume, there is actually nothing to foresee. This story, from the beginning, is not the traditional sense of the field, the author does not intend to write a stuffy head farming training for a wave and then go out to fight monsters to occupy the territory, and so on and so forth. It can be said that when you enter the second volume, something new will begin to come out, and perhaps some readers have already guessed some of the doorways.
Well, that's all that needs to be said. The second volume, Heavenly Father and Earth Mother, officially opens.
