The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

"Issue my decree: mobilize all available forces and eliminate Wu Sangui first!"

"I don't need this Ming Dynasty anymore, I'll just give it to that rebel!"

"Even if I were to become the ruler of a fallen kingdom, I would still personally fulfill the mandate entrusted to me by the founding emperor!"

"Even if you are subjects of a fallen nation, you should still have some sense of shame!"

Old Zhu's words finally made Zhu Youjian explode.

Those last words clearly showed that they didn't trust him and thought he was unfit for important tasks!

In any case, he had to prove himself to the founding emperor!

He's not a loser!

"This time, I will not interfere with what you do, nor will I issue any unnecessary decrees or restrict you with any rules or regulations."

"What I want is to see Wu Sangui's skin and the heads of his entire clan, at all costs!"

“If one person is missing, you will fill the vacancy with your own nine generations of relatives!”

……

"Tsk tsk tsk, you can tell that Old Zhu is really angry this time."

Zhao Kuangyin said something with a meaningful tone.

Which emperor, especially the founding emperor, doesn't hope that his dynasty can last for thousands of generations?

Especially after the appearance of celestial abilities like the Heavenly Curtain, the fate of a nation's demise could potentially be altered.

However, Zhu's words almost completely eliminated the possibility of Emperor Chongzhen reviving the Ming Dynasty.

Any rebel group that manages to defeat Wu Sangui and take his head will immediately be able to become the legitimate one!

And his right to rule the country is unparalleled!

"Who wouldn't be angry in that situation?"

"When the Ming dynasty lost its mandate, many heroes vied for it; this was only natural, and even Zhu Yuanzhang himself could accept it."

"No matter what Wu Sangui chooses, whether he leads his troops back to reinforce the border or defends the frontier, Zhu Yuanzhang will not blame him in the slightest."

"But he made the most pathetic and unforgivable choice!"

Without resistance, open the border and let the barbarians in.

Moreover, they were the Jurchens who had been utterly defeated and hadn't dared to raise their heads for nearly a century!

Li Er dared not even imagine how furious he would be if such a thing happened to him, or to the Li Tang dynasty.

"Don't even mention Old Zhu's explosive temper, anyone would find it unbearable!"

Liu Bang was eagerly anticipating the spectacle.

Unfortunately, the sky was not prepared to satisfy his curiosity.

The next moment, the writing on the sky changed again.

After the Manchus entered the Central Plains, they had the opportunity to rule the Central Plains like previous dynasties.

Both commoners and gentry looked forward to welcoming a new dynasty that would allow them to live in peace for a while.

Unfortunately, the Manchus were completely different from what they had expected.

They never intended to govern the country, whether it was Nurhaci, Huang Taiji, or the later Manchu emperors.

They never had the determination to take control of the Central Plains.

They were even prepared at any time to be driven out of the Central Plains and sent back to the area beyond the Great Wall.

It was precisely for this reason that the Eight Banners were allowed to seize land at will, arbitrarily dividing up the land that the common people had once owned. The people who were seized by them all became their slaves.

Any resistance would be met with a merciless massacre of the people of the Central Plains.

The Ten Days of Jiangyin, the Three Massacres of Jiading, and so on...

Several cities were massacred, leaving only a handful of survivors.

The Qing emperors of several generations created countless mass graves.

Was the Manchu Qing dynasty a true dynasty? Probably not; they were more like a barbaric and uncivilized slave system.

Their laws are nothing compared to those of previous dynasties; if one had to put it into words, it would be more accurate to say that they are laws specifically designed to suppress the Han people.

In order to thoroughly instill servility into the bones of the people of the Central Plains, the Manchu Qing Dynasty issued the shaving order, requiring everyone to change their hair to their iconic shaving style, the "money-tail."

Keep your head, lose your hair; keep your hair, lose your head.

This was the slogan shouted by the Manchus back then.

From that time on, for the people of the Central Plains, their full heads of black hair were not only a gift from their parents, but also carried the added meaning of longing for the Ming Dynasty. How could they willingly give it up?

Either keep your head or lose your hair, or keep your hair and lose your head!

The Jiangyin Massacre and the Jiading Massacre.

These bright red words, paired with scenes of cruelty.

In the most tragic scene, only a handful of people survived in the entire city!

Mass graves are cruel?

The emperors of the Qing Dynasty created countless mass graves!

Bai Qi, the leader of the Qin Dynasty, has been condemned as cruel in historical records for over a thousand years for his massacre of surrendered soldiers.

Compared to the methods of the Manchus, many people think that Bai Qi was as innocent as a white flower.

After all, no matter how cruel Bai Qi's methods were, he never showed his sword to ordinary people!

In contrast, what about the Manchu Qing dynasty?

In their eyes, there is no difference between ordinary people and rebels, and they have no respect for the concept that one's body and hair are given to one's parents.

They wielded their butcher knives against the people without the slightest psychological burden.

"Manchu... Jurchen!"

Zhu Jianshen gritted his teeth, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.

"Send troops out of the pass to encircle and annihilate them again!"

"Make everything that is alive and can speak dead for me."

"If you let one person escape, you'll pay with your own head!"

"From now on, every two years I will send troops out of the pass to encircle and annihilate them. I want them all to die completely!"

Although he didn't care about the common people as much as Zhu Yuanzhang did, they were still his subjects after all. Besides, he cared about his reputation!

He was the one who carried out the plowing and sweeping of the court, and he was even praised by Emperor Taizu for it.

Who would have thought that there would be a fish that slipped through the net, and that this fish would even get such a big break and directly take over the Central Plains!

If you don't do it thoroughly, it's better not to do it at all!

Although Old Zhu didn't say such a thing, Zhu Jianshen thought it was just out of face.

At least that's how he sees it!

Since he didn't do things thoroughly enough in the original history, he should now correct his mistakes!

"Not only that, but I have also issued arrest warrants to the remaining Yuan tribes such as the Oirats and Tatars outside the Great Wall. Anyone who captures a Jurchen can be sent to my Great Ming. Whatever reward they want, I will not be stingy with it!"

"But if anyone deliberately protects them, then they are guilty of the same crime as the Jurchens, and their entire clan should be exterminated!"

"By the way, when I said 'extermination of the clan,' I didn't mean the family, but the entire clan!"

Since the Manchus did not treat the people of the Central Plains as human beings, at least for now, they did not need to treat their ancestors, the Jianzhou Jurchens, as human beings!

……

During the Han Dynasty.

After a moment of thought, Liu Che turned to look at Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, who had not yet left.

"So in your opinion, would the Xiongnu and other barbarian tribes beyond the Great Wall also act this way? Given the opportunity, would they treat our Han people so cruelly?"

He believed that the two men must have a fairly good understanding of the Xiongnu and other foreign tribes.

If these two people give an affirmative answer, then he will inevitably have to...

"It's unlikely, or rather, they wouldn't stoop to doing so."

"If I had to say, the Xiongnu might be more like the Mongol Yuan dynasty that Zhu Yuanzhang described, rather than the short-sighted Manchu Qing dynasty."
