Chapter 95 Lin Che spoils the future ending of Ming Dynasty
Although Zhu Xiang had some understanding of the history of the Tang and Han Dynasties.

But Lin Che didn't expect this kid to really see through history. It was already very difficult to tell one, two, and three things.

Lin Che picked up the wine cup, took a sip of wine, and continued:
"Temperature has a crucial impact on the development of dynasties."

“If a country wants to prosper and a dynasty wants to spread, the most important thing is agriculture.”

“The economy of each dynasty is dominated by agriculture, and when agriculture flourishes, the country will be strong.”

"When agriculture declines, rebellions will arise and the country will perish."

"Just imagine, when agriculture is booming and everyone is well fed and clothed, will they think of rebellion?"

"will not!"

Zhu Xi shook his head.

Lin Che continued:
"Yes! The decline of the Han and Tang dynasties you mentioned was caused by temperature."

"A court meeting recorded by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty when he fled to Shu: On September 21th, the frost and wind in Shu were biting, and everyone looked cold when they went to court. Xuanzong ordered to wear robes. On the [-]st, all officials took off their robes and stood in court. Not the same style.”

"From this passage, we can clearly feel that the land of Bashu is no longer as warm as it was in the early Tang Dynasty. We can also know that the Tang Dynasty has changed from warm to cold."

"The agriculture in the Central Plains was hit by the temperature, and the national economy was hit hard, which also laid the foundation for future disasters."

"So temperature has played an important role in fueling the flames in all dynasties and generations."

Lin Che's climate theory is a conclusion generally recognized by later generations.

Climate plays an extremely important role in civilization and human development.

The entire human civilization and even animals obey this iron law of 'cold suppresses warm and expands'.

During the cold period of hunting, animals hibernate, while humans cannot find food and starve to death.

Later, the disadvantages of hunting were too great. Humanity started a farming civilization, and people's demand for the income from hunting was reduced. People only need to take care of the crops to be full. But what should I do if the weather gets cold and the crops fail?
In order for you to survive, you can only steal other people's food. Therefore, in the later stages of each dynasty, turmoil and wars continued.

Therefore, this is the most direct impact of temperature on the farming dynasty.

It took a long time after Lin Che finished speaking, but Zhu Ping still didn't come back to her senses.

He was immediately confused by Lin Che's statement.

Sir, use this perspective to analyze the reasons for the demise of the dynasty?
Too novel and too shocking.

"Now you understand the seriousness of winters that have been colder than usual in recent years."

Lin Che stood up on the long table, picked up a pot of hot tea, poured a cup each for herself and Zhu Xi, and said.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was shocked.

Temperature can actually lead to the demise of a dynasty!

Zhu Xi reached out and took the hot tea. He felt that the tea was hot, but his heart felt cold.

"The temperature has gradually begun to drop in recent years, and the Ming Dynasty has now entered the 'Little Ice Age.'"

"The performance of the Little Ice Age happened to be a sudden drop in temperatures in winter and frequent occurrences of droughts, hail and other phenomena in summer."

"I observe the sky and see that there will be a severe drought in the Ming Dynasty..."

"...By that time, Guo Zuo of the Ming Dynasty will only have more than 200 years left."

Lin Che took a sip of hot tea and spoke slowly.

"Little Ice Age?"

"Mr. Lin, does Zuo Zuo of the Ming Dynasty really only have more than 200 years left?"

"Mr. Lin, please give me some advice!"

Just now, Lin Che's explanation made Zhu Cang a little confused. He drank the tea and asked.

"Look at the hot tea in this cup."

Lin Che pointed at the tea cup, and Zhu Ping's eyes also fell on the tea cup.I saw a cloud of mist hanging on the teacup, and then dissipated in the air.

"When the temperature is high, the water in the rivers and swamps is like the tea in the cup, with mist rising."

"If there is too much fog, it will form raindrops when it rises in the sky. But now that the temperature has dropped sharply, the water in the rivers and swamps cannot form fog, so it cannot condense rainwater."

"That's why I can tell the drought."

Lin Che saw that Zhu Chong still didn't understand, so she had to explain the principle of rainfall.

"How does rainfall work? That's it!"

Zhu Xi was shocked when he heard this. He had never thought of such a profound thing.

Once explained, I was very surprised.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yuanzhang in the secret room were surprised when they heard this statement for the first time.

As the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang thought about the impact of temperature on the people of the Ming Dynasty.

The impact of such a bad climate on agriculture can be imagined. With so many mouths open, no matter how many Daming grain depots there are, it will not be enough!

I'm afraid that famine will come first before the temperature destroys the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang was annoyed when he thought that the Little Ice Age could directly destroy the Ming Dynasty, and he immediately broke his guard.

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was feeling depressed, Lin Che's voice next door sounded again:

"Shouldn't your focus be on the impact that the emergence of the Little Ice Age would have on the Ming Dynasty?"

When Lin Che saw that Zhu Chong's center was off track, she helplessly held her forehead and sighed.

"Sir, to what extent will Daming be affected?"

Zhu Xiang's heart trembled. As the prince of the Ming Dynasty, how could he forget such important issues?

However, there is still a little bit of luck in his heart at this time, and he still knows nothing about the Little Ice Age.

If a Ming Dynasty simply collects grain, the consequences should not be great.

"Today's Ming Dynasty is undergoing a major change that has never been seen in a century. This will be an unprecedented challenge."

"If the Ming Dynasty survives this calamity, it will be Nirvana and rebirth. If it cannot survive... hum."

Lin Che seemed to sense Zhu Xi's luck and gave him a few words.

The luck in Zhu Xi's heart was also extinguished by a basin of cold water, and he was no longer looked down upon.

"The situation caused by ordinary droughts can only be solved by reduced grain production and the court's active disaster relief."

"But today's situation is not just about a reduction in grain production."

"I said before that the Ming Dynasty has entered the Little Ice Age. In fact, not only the Ming Dynasty, but also the entire world has entered the Little Ice Age."

"We in the Ming Dynasty are self-sufficient through farming, and we can survive for a while to some extent, but what about the foreign races outside that herd cattle and horses?"

"They are nomads!"

"Affected by the continuous low temperatures during the Little Ice Age, grasslands were directly degraded. The northern nomadic people had no place to graze and they did not know how to farm. So what would they do in order to survive?"

Lin Che's words broke Zhu Xi's last illusion and made Zhu Xi understand that the Little Ice Age had a huge impact not only on the Ming Dynasty, but also on the entire world.

"This group of foreign barbarians should have joined forces and gone south to plunder our Ming Dynasty's food."

"Sir, before we get to that point, the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty have been intruding on our border with the Ming Dynasty for a long time."

After a moment, Zhu Xi guessed what the foreign barbarians were doing and said with an angry expression.

"Not only that, by then food production will be reduced, foreign tribes will attack, the people will rebel, the heroes will divide the country, and all kinds of natural disasters and diseases will be rampant. Even if the gods come, they will be unable to save the world."

Lin Che shook her head and sighed, spoiling the ending of the Ming Dynasty in advance according to the final direction of history.
