stubborn thief

Chapter 120
Good morning!

I have two good news to share with you.

First of all, it's going to be on the shelves today.

Because the VIP chapter is unlocked at [-]:[-] noon, the chapter will be postponed until noon, about a quarter past twelve.

As usual, there is a testimonial before it goes on the shelves, but I really don’t know how to write it, so let’s talk about this book.

After finishing the last book last year, I originally planned to take a three-month break to get married and prepare a new book by the way, but I didn't expect the new book to be so difficult to produce.

At the beginning, I didn't intend to write about the rebel army, but I had a strong sense of substitution after checking the information, and I was very angry, so the story gradually took shape.

It is difficult to write a story about the rebellion in northern Shaanxi at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

But if you don’t start writing from northern Shaanxi, you will feel that there is something wrong with this story, because the uprising at the end of the Ming Dynasty was not just a peasant uprising, but a collective mutiny by the Ming Dynasty that forced its own border guards to the point where they could not survive. .

Modern people stand at the commanding heights of history and look back at the ancient army. They often blame the generals for the poor military discipline of an army. autonomy and financial rights.

Whether it is an imperial court or a general, it is always necessary to prevent soldiers from starving or freezing to death, so as not to plunder or demolish houses.

I always thought that starving to death and freezing to death should be just an exaggerated rhetorical device except that the national standing army is facing extreme conditions.

Unexpectedly, during the reign of Tianqi and Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, it really became the norm to default on soldiers' salaries and let them freeze to death and starve to death.

The foundation of the Ming Dynasty is too strong, and there are too many heroes and righteous men in this land, but the foundation is weaker, and there are fewer heroes.

Why did it last until 17 years.

It started in northern Shaanxi, and if it didn't start here, it didn't matter where it started.

So I read a lot of materials and wanted to enrich the story as much as possible.

In fact, the beginning of this manuscript was written during the Chinese New Year, and 12 manuscripts were saved at that time; later, I felt unsatisfied, so I wrote a second one, and I also saved 12 yuan; I was not satisfied, and wrote a third one... Half a year passed like this.

Later, I found out that because I didn’t publish books and didn’t get feedback from readers, my hands became more and more raw, and the more I wrote, the more autistic I became.

In fact, the overall quality of the five beginnings continues to decline, and they are not as good as this.

But there are also places where the arrangement is not very good, so I have to post the book first and revise it later, and the hand will not be picked up after a while, so the writing is very slow.

When I first published the book, I couldn’t even write [-] words a day, so I was very anxious.

But as I write, I get familiar with it. I can feel that my craft is getting back bit by bit, and I am very happy.

Now I can probably write a little more than 4000 a day. I tried it yesterday and wrote [-].

Although it is still very slow to write, it has made great progress.

This is the first good news, bang, the update speed is expected to increase by [-]%.

The initial consideration is to try to update [-] every day after it is put on the shelves, and it may be [-] during the holidays.

The second piece of good news is that I accompanied my wife during the prenatal check-up a few days ago. I am going to be a father, and I will have a fetal heart rate test in a few days. By this time next year, I will be happy to mention the four-legged gold-swallowing little deer.

The only shortcoming is probably that looking back, I could have written the beginning better.

But people may always have this feeling, which shows that I am making progress, and it is all accumulation.

In short, I have made progress, my books have improved, and my family has also improved, and everything is getting better and better.

I will work hard, work hard to write this book better, and strive to make more progress.

Finally, I wish you all the best and all wishes come true.
