Chapter 95 Lin Che spoils the future ending of the Ming Dynasty
Although Zhu Fan has some knowledge of the history of the Tang and Han dynasties.
But Lin Che didn't expect this kid to really see through the long river of history, and it was not easy to say one, two, three.
Lin Che took a sip of wine from the wine cup and continued:
"Temperature had a crucial impact on the development of dynasties."
"If a country wants to prosper and a dynasty wants to spread, the most inseparable thing is agriculture."
"The economy of all dynasties and generations is dominated by agriculture, and when agriculture flourishes, the country is strong."
"When agriculture declines, rebellions erupt and the country goes to ruin."
"Imagine, when agriculture flourishes, the people are well fed and warmly clothed, will they think about rebellion?"
"No!"
Zhu Fan shook his head.
Lin Che continued:
"Yes! The decline and fall of the Han and Tang dynasties you mentioned, among them, there was a problem with temperature. ”
"Tang Xuanzong fled to Shu a court meeting recorded: September 19, the frost and wind in Shu were cold, and when the court saw it, it was cold, and Xuanzong ordered to wear robes. By the 21st, hundreds of officials were dressed in robes, and they were not still in the same style. ”
"From this passage, you can clearly feel that the land of Bashu is no longer as warm as it was in the early Tang Dynasty, and you can also know that the Tang Dynasty has turned from warm to cold."
"The agriculture of the Central Plains was hit by temperature, and the country's economy was hit hard, which also laid the foundation for the future."
"So temperature plays an important role in all dynasties and generations."
Lin Che's climatology is a conclusion that is generally accepted in later generations.
Climate plays an incomparably important role in the development of civilization and human beings.
The entire human civilization and even the animals obey this iron law of 'cold suppression and warmth'.
During the cold months of hunting, animals hibernate, and humans starve to death when they can't find food.
Later, the disadvantages of hunting were too great, human beings opened the agricultural civilization, and the demand for hunting income was reduced, and they only needed to take care of the crops to be full, but when the weather was cold, what should I do if the crops are not harvested?
In order for you to survive, you can only rob other people's food, so in the later period of each dynasty, there is often turmoil and war.
So, this is the most direct impact of temperature on the farming dynasty.
After Lin Che finished speaking, Zhu Fan didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
He was directly stunned by Lin Che's statement.
Sir: Use this perspective to analyze the reasons for the fall of the dynasty?
It's too novel, it's too appalling.
"Now you understand the severity of winters that have been colder than ever in recent years."
Lin Che got up on the long table, carried a pot of hot tea, poured a cup for himself and Zhu Zhang, and said.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was already shocked in his heart.
Temperatures can lead to the demise of a dynasty!
Zhu Fan stretched out his hand to take the hot tea, feeling that the tea was hot, but his heart was cold.
"In recent years, the temperature has gradually begun to decrease, and Daming has now entered the 'Xiaoice River period."
"The performance of the Xiaoice period coincided with a sharp drop in temperature in winter, and frequent droughts and hail in summer."
"I look at the heavens, and there is about to be a great drought in the Ming Dynasty..."
“… At that time, there were almost more than two hundred years left of the Ming Dynasty's national ancestry. ”
Lin Che took a sip of hot tea and said slowly.
"Xiaoice period?"
"Mr. Lin, is there really more than two hundred years left in the Ming Dynasty?"
"Mr. Lin, please give me advice!"
Just now, Lin Che's explanation made Zhu Fan a little confused, he drank tea and asked.
"Look at the hot tea in this cup."
Lin Che pointed to the teacup, and Zhu Fan's gaze fell on the teacup.
I saw a mist on the teacup, which then dissipated into the air.
"When the temperature is high, the water in this great river is like tea in this cup, and the mist rises."
"If there is more fog, it will form raindrops in the sky, but now that the temperature has plummeted, the water in this river cannot form fog, so it will not be able to condense rain."
"That's why I can tell the drought."
Lin Che saw that Zhu Fan still didn't understand, so he had to explain the principle of rainfall.
"How does rain work? I see! ”
Zhu Fan was shocked when he heard this, he had never thought of such a profound thing.
Once explained, I was very surprised.
Zhu Yuanzhang and the others in the secret room were also surprised when they heard this statement for the first time.
As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang thought about the impact of temperature on the people of the Ming Dynasty.
The blow of such a bad climate to agriculture can be imagined, so many mouths, no matter how much Ren Daming grain depot has, it is not enough!
I'm afraid that before the temperature is extinguished, the famine will come first.
Zhu Yuanzhang was annoyed when he came inside, and when he thought that the Xiaoice River period could directly destroy Daming, he immediately broke the defense.
Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was depressed, Lin Che's voice next door sounded again:
"Shouldn't your focus be on what impact the appearance of the Xiaoice River period will have on Daming?"
Lin Che saw that Zhu Zhang's center was off, and sighed helplessly.
"Sir, to what extent will Da Ming be affected?"
Zhu Zhang's heart trembled, such an important question, as the prince of the Ming Dynasty, how could he forget!
However, there was still a little bit of luck in his heart at this time, and he still didn't know anything about the Xiaoice River period.
A simple Ming has grain, and the consequences should not be great.
"Today's Daming is in the midst of a great change that is rare in a century, and it will be an unprecedented challenge."
"If the Ming Dynasty survives this catastrophe, it will be Nirvana reborn, if it can't survive... Hum. ”
Lin Che seemed to see Zhu Zhang's luck and nodded a few words to him.
The luck in Zhu Fan's heart was also like being doused with a basin of cold water, and there was no contempt.
"The only situation caused by the ordinary drought is a reduction in grain production, which can be solved by the active relief efforts of the imperial court."
"But the situation today is not just about a reduction in food production."
"I also said earlier that Daming has entered the Xiaoice River period, in fact, not only Daming, but the whole world has entered the Xiaoice River period."
"Our Ming Dynasty is self-sufficient in farming, and we can survive for a while, but what about the alien races who herd cattle and horses outside?"
"They're nomads!"
"Affected by the continuous low temperature during the Xiaoice River, it directly leads to the degradation of grasslands, and the northern nomads have no place to graze and cannot farm, so what will they do in order to survive?"
Lin Che's words shattered Zhu Fan's last illusion, and also made Zhu Fan understand that the Xiaoice River period had a huge impact not only on Daming, but also on the whole world.
"This group of alien barbarians should be going south to plunder my Ming grain."
"Sir, it hasn't reached that point yet, and the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty have been invading my Ming border for a long time."
After a moment, Zhu Fan guessed the approach of the alien barbarians, and said with an angry expression.
"Not only that, but at that time, the grain production will be reduced, the alien race will attack, the people will rebel, the heroes will be divided, and all kinds of natural disasters and diseases will be raging, and I am afraid that the gods will not be able to return to the sky."
Lin Che shook his head and sighed, spoiling the ending of the Ming Dynasty in advance according to the final direction of history.
