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

Zhang Xianzhong?

Emperor Qianlong never took this person seriously.

If it weren't for the fact that Sichuan is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, this man would have been a skeleton in his grave long ago.

Even so, didn't that place eventually fall to the Qing Dynasty?

Did Zhang Xianzhong pose any threat from beginning to end?

not at all!

In Qianlong's eyes, that was nothing more than an annoying force.

With Zhang Xianzhong's arrival, can he change the entire course of the war?

Obviously, Qianlong did not think so; he looked down on the so-called Great Western King who was hiding in Sichuan.

Whether he can be effective or not will be revealed after the confrontation.

Old Zhu is not sure about the future either.

Although he admired Zhang Xianzhong's decisive nature and the decisions he made.

However, it must be said that rebels are rebels, and no one can guarantee how strong they will be after leaving Sichuan.

Many people may even lose their fighting ability due to acclimatization issues.

"Clash?"

"Why wait for a confrontation? Emperor Taizu of Ming, I used to think you were someone important, but now it seems you're just a muddle-headed old fool who can't tell the situation apart."

"No wonder the Ming Dynasty was easily overthrown by my Great Qing. A dynasty created by an old fool like you should have been destroyed long ago!"

The current situation for Emperor Qianlong is that Dorgon has the upper hand, and he criticizes whoever he can get his hands on.

Whether he admired Zhu Yuanzhang or the top emperors in the heavens before is no longer important.

The most important thing now is that his Great Qing Dynasty is invincible!

What are you trying to embellish?

"Think about it carefully, was the Ming Dynasty really destroyed by the Manchu barbarians?"

"Li Zicheng did indeed perform poorly in this challenge."

"Not only did he fail to see through Dorgon's wolfish ambitions, but he also arrogantly tried to easily suppress the Qing army. These wrong decisions led to his defeat."

"But you can't deny his achievement of overthrowing the Ming Dynasty just because of that, can you?"

Although Li Er was not a person of later generations, he still remembered the inventory on the sky.

If it were said that the Qing Dynasty destroyed the Ming Dynasty, he would be the first to stand up and oppose it.

What nonsense! If Li Zicheng hadn't completely disrupted and even destroyed the Ming Dynasty, would the Qing army, which was blocked outside Shanhaiguan, have dared to even think about taking over the Central Plains?

How come he has become emperor yet still has no awareness of his own power?

"so what?"

"Even though Li Zicheng defeated the Ming Dynasty, in terms of both history and challenges, our Great Qing easily crushed his Shun army!"

"If that's the case, doesn't it mean that our Great Qing is far superior to the Great Ming?"

Emperor Qianlong did a very good job with this conversion.

So good that Li Er was speechless for a moment.

He felt that if he continued to explain, it would probably be of no use.

Given Qianlong's thought process, he probably couldn't understand why Li Zicheng's uprising, which overthrew the Ming Dynasty, was so popular.

He probably couldn't imagine whether the people would turn against the Ming Dynasty and help it resist if the Manchus had been the first to rise up.

The human heart is sometimes something that cannot be explained or understood.

Even if the Ming Dynasty was rotten to the core, it still depends on who it is compared to.

Compared to Li Zicheng, who entered the city under the banner of the "Chuang King" and refused to pay taxes, even opening the granaries to distribute grain, it is naturally incomparable.

But compared to the Qing court, who looted the city as soon as they entered, sparing neither men, women, nor children.

Li Er believed that the people could distinguish whether it was unacceptable to be starving or to be cooked to fill the stomachs of the enemy.

They really didn't discriminate between men, women, or children; they were all put into one pot to cook.

If they hadn't encountered an opponent as incompetent as a pig, who knows what the final outcome would have been?

"Can this be equated with something else?"

"Guan Yu's might shook the land, and he almost single-handedly drove Cao Cao into a series of defeats, making Liu Bei, the straw sandal seller, almost launch a counterattack against the Central Plains."

"Later, I ordered Lü Meng to launch a surprise attack on Jingzhou, which led to Guan Yu's defeat and retreat to Maicheng."

"Cao Cao was defeated by a straw sandal seller, while I won against the straw sandal seller. According to your calculations, wouldn't I have been able to take control of the Central Plains long ago?"

Emperor Sun thought for a moment and said.

If what Qianlong said is true, then he felt that Cao Cao should not be a match for him!

"You think you can just dream about it?"

"You coward, you only managed to defeat my second brother by sneak attacking him. Someone like you dares to dream of launching a northern expedition against Cao Cao?"

"Cao Cao is just bad, but if you treat him like a pushover, you're just asking for death!"

Liu Bei immediately cursed out loud.

Even now, seeing Sun Quan's words still makes him tremble with anger.

What a despicable bastard!

The Northern Expedition against Cao Cao resulted in repeated defeats, and in the end, Cao Cao could only retreat to Eastern Wu and deal with Bu Lianshi.

On the contrary, when it comes to betraying allies, they are incredibly ruthless and efficient.

The white-clad figure crossed the river, giving them absolutely no time to react!

In addition, Mi Fang and Liu Feng, along with a few other scoundrels, betrayed their own people, which led to the downfall of his second brother!

Can this surprise attack on Jingzhou represent the strength of Eastern Wu?

"Ahem, this Prime Minister is neither incompetent nor bad; it's just that our methods for restoring the Han Dynasty differ."

Mr. Cao coughed twice.

"Compared to those scoundrels who superficially form alliances but actually stab you in the back, I'm really not that bad, am I?"

"If it weren't for me, who knows how many people would claim to be emperors and how many would claim to be kings!"

"It is because of me that you, Liu Xuande, were able to divide the world into three. Otherwise, not to mention anything else, those two Yuan brothers, who have been high-ranking officials for four generations, would have been enough to give you two a hard time."

This wasn't Cao Cao underestimating those two; it was simply the terrifying pressure Yuan Shao exerted in the past that had almost made him prepare for his fate after his defeat and death.

If he hadn't destroyed Yuan Shao, no matter if it had been Liu Bei, Sun Quan, or anyone else, they would all have ended up being swallowed up by Yuan Shao!

Liu Bei: "..."

He didn't know how to refute it.

After all, as far as he knew, Cao Cao never declared himself emperor until his death, and never truly took the step of rebellion.

It was his son Cao Pi who forced Emperor Xian to abdicate.

If Boss Cao insists on sticking to this point, then it's really hard to say whether he's loyal or treacherous.

"But that is indeed the case, you rat. Just because you took back Jingzhou doesn't mean you're stronger than Liu Bei, nor does it mean you're stronger than me."

"Just like the so-called Manchu Qing dynasty, they defeated Li Zicheng, which can only be attributed to their good luck."

"To actually ask them to overthrow the Ming Dynasty in its final days is nothing short of a pipe dream."

As Boss Cao was talking, nodding his head, he seemed to catch a glimpse of something unbelievable out of the corner of his eye.

It seems things didn't develop as they expected.

Han Xin's goal was not merely to rescue Liu Bang and buy time for Zhang Xianzhong's troops to arrive.

It seems he wants much more than that!
