First of all, because I am not satisfied with the previous chapters, Chapter 2 has been partially modified, and Chapters 3-4-5 have all been replaced with new chapters, and book friends who have already read the old chapters can re-download it, sorry for the inconvenience.

In order to write this new book, Han Han put a lot of effort into it, but he read four or five kinds of history books about the peasant army in the late Ming Dynasty, and the main references are mainly "Guoyu", "Pingkou Zhi", "History of the Peasant War in the Late Ming Dynasty", and "Suikou Jiluo".

The editor said that writing about the peasant army is not pleasant, and this story will be difficult to write, one is that many book friends do not like to rebel against thieves, and second, there are some book friends who do not like to wear double, they think that two men will always part ways in the end.

But I want to try, because this story was bred in the peasant army, but I want to make one point in advance, and let you book friends have a good idea.

First, although this story is a double-piercing text, it is not a double-piercing text in the traditional sense, and book lovers are not more worried about the problems that will arise from two men's double-wearing, such as mutual suspicion and parting ways.

Second,This article is not a push text.、It's not a support text.,This is what I've considered carefully.,On the one hand, it's the old reason of the previous book.,The author doesn't like to be an emperor.,So the male protagonist doesn't like it either.。

On the other hand, there is a little bit of emotion in it, the main line of this story revolves around the search for Lao Chen, and one of the branches is Lao Chen's search for the male protagonist, but the main and secondary are clear, all in order to portray the character of Zhan Yun and the various changes he will experience.

There are many texts written at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but very few are written on the theme of the peasant army at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and the reason for this is that it is difficult to write.

The peasant army from Baishui Wang Er, to Fugu Wang Jiayin, and then to Ansai Gao Yingxiang, as well as Shen Yikui, Bu Mud, Zhang Xianzhong, Li Zicheng, Cao Cao, during this period, there were countless peasant army leaders, some of them did not even have names, only one code name.

They wandered around, some died in battle, some surrendered, and many accounts are contradictory, so I want to understand them and integrate with them.

It takes a lot of effort to find out more reliable materials from many historical materials, and then I process it, and try to rationalize the story while adding the male protagonist.

This is difficult, because I don't want to do too much fiction, and then I lose the value of historical writing.

My original intention of writing history and culture has never changed, and I hope that you can learn some useful historical knowledge from the story while reading a story you like, even if you can use it in the future.

I am also worried about another problem, that is, because there are too many controversial places in the peasant army in the late Ming Dynasty, I am very worried that because of different views, book friends have their own opinions.

To give a few examples that are prone to disagreement, Li Zicheng has never called himself King Chuang, nor did he inherit this title after the death of King Gao Yingxiang, Li Zicheng's only nickname is General Chuang.

Li Zicheng is not Gao Yingxiang's nephew, and the general and the king are not subordinate, they are just a loose alliance, and no one can command anyone.

Here is a relatively in-depth issue - historical facts.

I divide the reader's perception into the following categories:

First, history as seen in historical novels and TV dramas.

Second, the history seen from Baidu Encyclopedia, Wikipedia and other websites.

Third, the history found in the history books.

Which one do you think is more reliable?

To tell you the truth, when I wrote "Carrying AK to Daming", most of my information came from Baidu Encyclopedia and Wikipedia, but by the second half of the book, I didn't trust what I found in the encyclopedia.

It's as if most of the Ming history books have been castrated, and the things in the encyclopedia are not real enough, so you can only look at them.

Then there are the history books, when I wrote the second half of AK, I believed in the history books, and the one-foot-thick chronicle of the "National Legend" sent by the book friend, I also doubled it occasionally, and relied on it as a divine book.

After all, there are very few books in the history of the Ming Dynasty that have not been castrated, and Lao Tan's not a huge work took decades to write, and he knew that the first publication was completed after three hundred years, and it must have not been cut.

But later, I bought "Ping Kou Zhi" and "History of the Peasant War in the Late Ming Dynasty", especially this one by Mr. Gu Cheng, which made me realize that even checking history books is too narrow.

What is historical fact, it is not the historical book that tells you the historical fact, for example, there are many ambiguous places in "Suikou Chronicles", and even speculation or conjecture.

"Guoyi" is a private compilation, so it will inevitably contain some personal thoughts of Comrade Tan, and "Ping Kou Zhi" is the same.

My solution is to stand on the shoulders of giants, Mr. Gu Cheng's "History of the Peasant War in the Late Ming Dynasty" is to analyze the truth from a variety of historical books and even county records in a specific event, and I deeply believe it.

Therefore, I would like to explain some of the places that are prone to controversy and disagreement, either at the end of the chapter, or in detail in a single chapter, so that you book friends can learn something.

I just don't know if book lovers will feel bored with this extra move.

The story has been slowly rolled out in Chapter 6, and then the male protagonist will meet the more miserable status quo of the people at the bottom, and he will gradually come into contact with the upper echelons of the peasant army, and the contradictions will gradually intensify.

I won't go into details, I hope you like this story, and this is also the story I want to tell.

The new book period especially needs the support of all book friends, recommendation votes, rewards are really important for new books, many book friends like to raise books, but I don't know that many good stories are raised to death in this way.

The editor's recommendation will be based on a very important indicator, which is called follow-up, so in the new book period, I hope that book friends can come and scan it every day, click on it, vote, give a reward or something, hehe.

So be it, it's too late, I can't open my eyes, and I fall asleep.
