The main structure of the copy comes from Qi Jiguang's anti-Japanese deeds. The original historical materials that follow are basically collected from relevant historical materials, with a few words simply changed.
Among them, Deng Yuanjing's character prototype is Qi Jiguang and Deng Zilong, Lin Xiangmin's character prototype is Hu Zongxian, and Wang Zongchang's character prototype is Wang Shiqi.
"Three Arrows Settle the World" is a real event recorded in Qi Shaobao's chronicle. The details of the battle are from the stop-motion animation documentary "Qi Jiguang", which is highly recommended.
Lin Xiangmin's military resources problem and the related plots of the cabinet are mainly based on the history of the time and the plots related to the change of rice to mulberry in "The Ming Dynasty 1566".
The prototype of the Battle of Buning Port is the Battle of Cengang, and the prototype of the Battle of Nanhe City is Qi Jiguang's wife's defense of Xinhe City and Wang Shiqi's Battle of Nanyuan in the Anti-Japanese War.
The plot related to Wang Zongchang's tomb is also based on Wang Shiqi. Although Wang Shiqi made great contributions in the process of resisting Japanese aggression and aiding the DPRK, the record in the "Linhai County Chronicle" at the time of his death was indeed "Money has nothing to gain, and the traveler
"Xiao Ran", the tomb was not discovered until 1954, and a large number of precious cultural relics such as gold crowns and belts were unearthed. In fact, they were the tombs given by the emperor later, which changed people's original understanding.
Mr. Xu is of course Xu Wei, Hu Zongxian's aide. In history, there is no record of his interaction with Qi Jiguang when he left the Great Wall. The purpose of arranging their meeting in the book is to highlight the theme of "the title of prince is not my own", which is different from some people who respect themselves as a bandit.
Contrast historical figures.
Then briefly talk about the basic principles of material selection.
The reason why it is written in a magical way is that there are many disadvantages in using real history.
For example, no one knows the truth of history. Some events and characters can only be inferred from original historical records, and sometimes the results of the inference may be very different.
For example, for a certain official, there are indeed many records of corruption and currying favor with powerful ministers in historical materials, but at the same time he also did many practical things. So, does he curry favor with powerful ministers specifically for personal gain, or is it to improve his official position so that he can do great things?
No one can tell, and different people will definitely have very different standards when judging.
Another example is that some heroes in history inevitably have some flaws, and there are very few perfect people in the true sense.
Moreover, many detailed historical plots are difficult to focus on, and the plot will be less compact.
Therefore, this method of magical modification and stitching was adopted, which may be to put the deeds of many different characters together, or it may be to change some details.
Just like in "The Ming Dynasty 1566", Hu Zongxian is almost portrayed as a perfect man. This is definitely not completely consistent with the historical facts. It is more about expressing a beautiful vision and an expectation.
It's more deductive in nature than documentary.
Therefore, some of the heroes in the book themselves express a beautiful vision and expectation, and do not necessarily completely match the historical prototypes.
Try to highlight the glorious side of these heroes as much as possible.
After I finish writing a plot, I will write out the prototype. You don’t have to sit down one by one. If you have different opinions on a certain prototype, you can keep it. But there is no need to reject a certain prototype just because there may be a small flaw in history.
Therefore, let’s completely deny him.
Of course, when I draw materials, I will definitely draw them from people who are generally recognized and whose merits undoubtedly outweigh their faults. I will definitely not whitewash some generally recognized trash.
Finally, please give me a monthly pass. The next copy should be more interesting.
