When I was a child, my family gave me the nickname "King of Destruction" because I was bad at what I touched. I felt very aggrieved, I just touched these things just when they were about to live, so their destruction was my fault. Emperor Chongzhen of Daming, too, happened to be reincarnated as emperor before the fall of the country, and the emperor of the fall of the country became his nickname. But here's the thing, at that time, you're right there, and you're bearing the consequences. This is all an arrangement of fate, and this is also a historical fact.
The story of "Daming Robbery" takes place in the 15th year of Chongzhen, two years before the demise of the Ming Dynasty. Li Zicheng rose again, and Chongzhen had no choice but to use the famous prison general Sun Chuanting. Chongzhen asked Sun Chuanting how many men and horses he needed to pacify Liu Kou? Sun Chuanting replied firmly: Five thousand elite soldiers are enough.
Sun Chuanting led the last elite troops of the Ming Dynasty to Tongguan to meet the battle. He looked at this army and already knew how fierce he was. The five thousand elite soldiers are all rabble-rousers, the armament is uneven, there is almost no surplus of military food, and there is no military salary. The whole army was distraught and had no fighting spirit.
In desperation, Sun Chuanting could only train troops by killing the local tycoons in the Tongguan area and seizing their property for military pay. However, the training of troops had not yet borne fruit, and the Chongzhen Emperor was worried about the self-esteem of his mercenaries, and constantly urged him to go out to meet the battle. The camera swept by, and Sun Chuanting had been killed on the battlefield.
At the same time as Sun Chuanting was training troops, the Ming Dynasty also experienced an unprecedented plague. Traveling physician Wu can also find that the plague is an evil gas that spreads through the air and people get sick through breathing. He broke the characterization therapy of treating typhoid fever with the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", and according to the actual condition of the patient, he used a strong medicine for severe diseases and healed many plague patients. And in view of the spread of the plague, the use of isolation therapy has a good effect on curbing the spread of the plague.
However, Sun Chuanting was forced to go out to fight under the pressure of going out to fight, and killed all the plague patients to avoid future troubles.
Wu is also a doctor, whose duty is to save people, which seems so insignificant in this chaotic world, and the number of deaths in a war is far more than that of the people he has saved. Wu can see through the reality, and has no choice but to return to Suzhou to complete the book "The Plague Theory", and the medical path will be passed on forever.
In the 276 years of the Ming Dynasty's rule, party strife, eunuch monopoly, land annexation, corruption of officials, etc. have accumulated shortcomings for a long time, and the Chongzhen era has encountered plagues, the rise of the Northeast Emperor Taiji, and under the internal and external troubles, the demise has become a foregone conclusion.
Wu Youke, Sun Chuanting, and the Chongzhen Emperor, the ruler of the Ming Dynasty, who were pushed to the stage by the times, they cured the plague, the army, and the country, but everything was terminally ill, and not a strong medicine could be cured. The three are unable to complete the redemption in the face of their duties, revealing the helplessness of the hero's weakness.
Chongzhen committed suicide at Jingshan, known as the emperor of the fallen country of Daming? Did Chongzhen think that Daming would perish at his own hands? It just so happens that the dynasty has decayed from the inside to the outside.
After watching the film, I felt that it was most appropriate to summarize it with this word.
Hillside Sheep Tong Care Gu (Zhang Yanghao Yuan)
The peaks are like gathering, the waves are like anger, and the mountains and rivers are on the surface of tongguan road. Looking at Xidu, I hesitated.
Sadly, Qin and Han made soil in the middle of the road, and the palace was made of soil. Rise, the people suffer; death, the people suffer.
Chongzhen, Sun Chuanting, Wu Youke, etc., they all left names in history, and more ordinary people without names died as cannon fodder in the plague and on the battlefield. Everyone can only be chosen by the times, and cannot choose the era in which they live.
In 2021, it has been 377 years since the demise of Daming. "The Great Ming Raid" truly and objectively recreates the war at the time of the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the plague that swept the whole country, and the people died like grass. Understanding today through history, we should cherish the prosperity of the country, cherish the prosperity of the taiping at this time, and cherish the beautiful life we have.
This is the best of times, we must cherish the present and strive to create a better future.
