Ming Dynasty Li Zicheng's uprising. History records the joy and excitement of the farmers, as if Li Zicheng's Once Li Zicheng's , a happy life will fall from the sky, every household will have enough food and clothing, and everyone will be proud of their spring breeze.
Li Zicheng
The poem "King of Breaking" vividly reflects people's dream and the grand occasion at that time.
seeks to ascend in the morning and seeks to get together in the evening. Recently, poor people are unable to survive .
opens the door early to worship the King of Breaking, and is happy to discipline everyone.
Kill cattle and sheep, prepare wine and slurry,
open the city gate to welcome the King of Break, The King of Break came and did not pay grain .
Eat his mother, and she doesn't eat enough.
does not take the job or pays food, and everyone will live a happy life.
Look at how comfortable life is. If you don’t have enough food and drink, you will find the King of Chuang, you will not be bad or taxed, and you will be happy and free. Is this possible?
You will know that this is just a utopia. Could the King of Chuang be a god who calls the wind and rain and blessings the people? The rebel army did not serve the farm, attacked the cities and villages, and was defeated when they were defeated. They just waited for the wind to die? Life and death on the battlefield are common, and the bones are filled with sorrow. Doesn’t the loss of troops need to be supplemented? The above poems are just a difficult life for the people and starving people everywhere. The King of Chuang temporarily gave them a chance to breathe. But this kind of joy is just a buffer before the infinite abyss. Because of this kind of life, is originally unsustainable. It is just a temporary rest on the tip of the knife. After that, you have to face the loess and face the sky. In the hot summer, you have to work hard on the tip of the knife to make a living.
Look, after the King of Chuang occupied Beijing city and established Dashun Dynasty , everything was revealed. They plundered wealth, fired officials, blackmailed the people, and did whatever they wanted. When they were defeated and fled, and they hurriedly left Beijing, the people were cheering and excited.
The same king of trespassing, the same people, one is warmly welcomed, the other is tooth-glanting hatred, are the people chameleon ? No, it was just that the King of Chuang had achieved his ambition and unexpectedly revealed his true colors.
Just think about it, if Li Zicheng was the one who was the king of corruption who did not pay food? I know that it is impossible to move my toes. A new wave of powerful people is born, and heavy taxes are back, and it may be even heavier! Assuming that Han Shun is firmly in the country, it is better than , the Qing Dynasty , then it is just a dream! They are essentially the same, only half a pound.
This is the greatness of Lu Xun. What he said: "I opened history and looked at it. There was no era in this history. The words "benevolence, righteousness and morality" were written on each page. I couldn't sleep. After reading it carefully in the middle of the night, I could see the words from the cracks. The whole book said that there were two words "cannibalism"!"
From 221 BC Qin Dynasty to 1912 Qing Dynasty, after 2133 years, the people actually lived in dire straits. Even if there were sometimes a short period of prosperity, it was just a temporary compromise policy adopted by the ruling class for its long-term interests, rather than a policy formulated from the interests of the people. Therefore, the demise of one dynasty after another is inevitable, and this is determined by its fundamental nature.
