In short, there were too many reasons for the Ming Dynasty's demise. In her previous life, every time Fang Yi read the history of the Ming Dynasty, she wished she could live at that time and devote herself to serving the country. Now, let's see how Emperor Chongzhen would lead the Darming Dynasty to rise from the ashes.
Since Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne. One step at a time. The first step was to seize the Shanxi merchant group that had given blood to the Tartars and levy heavy taxes on the wealthy merchants of the country to ensure a strong economic foundation.
The second step was to reactivate the Jinyiwei to deal with corrupt officials.
Third step, continue to use the eunuch party to check and balance the Donglin Party, let the two parties fight, and prevent the imperial power from being usurped. Then, the disaster areas in the northwest would be exempted from taxes, and the southeast would increase taxes.
The fourth step was for the vassal kings to cancel the salaries given by the imperial court. They would not support the mediocre and useless people, break their iron rice bowls, and reduce the national expenditure.
Step 5: Take control of the army and train your own generals. He would use eunuchs and generals to build a powerful army directly under the central government. He would have an army controlled by eunuchs and generals who were loyal to him to intimidate the unruly local armies.
The sixth step was to break the ancestral system, open the sea ban, reopen coastal trade, and send eunuchs to take over and reform the city shipping department, which was also the customs. Collect customs duties and enter the national treasury.
Step 7: Make up your mind to fight. Before you gain the advantage on the battlefield, don't expect the enemy to give up on the hostile situation. Appoint Yuan Chonghuan, Chen Xinjia, Lu Xiangsheng, and other capable generals. Letting Yuan Chonghuan guard Liaodong meant that the Houjin would not have the ability to cross Shanhaiguan.
Yuan Chonghuan was appointed to defend the front line of Ningyuan using the method of Liao people defending Liao territory. At the same time, he moved the refugees who had lost their land in the Central Plains to the border cities and gave them land to defend their territory. Soldiers were soldiers during wartime. They participated in farming during normal times and were given half of their salary. The Eight Banners of the Manchu Dynasty were mainly defending the city. They built a few fortresses to strengthen their defenses and equipped them with firearms. They were determined to resist gold.
Step 8: Take decisive measures against the uprising army, rectify the administration of officials and taxes, mobilize money and food from Jiangnan to help the victims, and do everything possible to help the victims. They would use the strategy of splitting up the rebel army and destroying it, moving the refugees to the border or letting them live on land given by the men. Sun Chuanting would be put in an important position and given enough money to eliminate the raiders step by step. When the civil war is over,
Step 9: Solve the internal problems from the economic and system aspects. First of all, he would solve the land problem and take some gradual measures to rehabilitate Zhang Juzheng. He would take some of his reform measures and gradually punish corruption to fight against dissidents and amass wealth. They would attack some of the local tyrants and tyrants who had greater grievances, as well as some of the royal workers and nobles, to calm the hearts of the people, resolve the refugees, and fill the national treasury. Waiting for an opportunity to accumulate strength and recuperate
[Step 10: Use the strategy of sowing discord to cause civil strife in the Manchu Empire. Join forces with the Mongolian army and give them Manchu territory as a temptation. Then, suppress the Manchu forces before balancing the Mongolian forces.] He took the opportunity to develop the domestic economy.
Step 11: Control the Yellow River, kill corrupt officials to appease the people's anger, and order the princes and ministers to take out their private salaries to relieve the victims, turning the situation around in one fell swoop. He wanted to calm the hearts of the people, appease the people, remove the relay station, and send them to the disaster area to build water conservancy projects and deal with the drought.
Step 12: The strategic policy of winning step by step, using the tactics of stalemate, strengthening national defense, purchasing weapons, strengthening border defense, and equipping a large number of excellent firearms. Relying on their superior firearms defense, they blocked the Qing army layer by layer and dragged them down.
Step 13: After the country's internal problems are basically stabilized, carry out land and system reforms, break the monopoly and excessive concentration of land, and make the country further prosperous.
Fourteenth step: develop new technology, upgrade weapons, purchase and build cannons, develop ocean transportation trade, prevent local officials from being too powerful, appropriately attack those who disobey orders, strengthen the central power, strengthen the army under the emperor, and make them into trump cards.
After Emperor Chongzhen's fourteen steps, the Darming Dynasty walked from disaster to rebirth. From internal and external troubles to rejuvenation. The people of later generations all praised Emperor Chongzhen's wisdom.
There were also many people who believed that the 14 steps were jointly formulated by the leadership team under Emperor Chongzhen. However, that was hundreds of years ago. The truth had long been lost in the fog of history.
It had to be said. Fang Yi was 99.9% sure that he was a transmigrator. Furthermore, he was an extremely successful transmigrator. When he thought of that magnificent era, the seniors who had transmigrated could turn the tide. Fang Yi could not help but express his heartfelt admiration for this senior.
The Ming Empire in this world was a behemoth with an area of 1800 square kilometers. Every person in the Ming Empire was proud of their identity. The great China had to be congratulated from all directions. As the suzerain country, Great Ming was the only country in the world. He was admired by the vassal states of the four directions. All the people in the world are proud to have joined the Ming Dynasty.
F * ck, this was the life of a transmigrator. This was called extraordinary, this was called dying without regrets.
