History: How to correctly understand the ethnic relations between the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty du

The effects of the war or peace between the Xiongnu and the Han court were as follows:

The impact of the war or peace between the Xiongnu and the Han court is that Wei Qing's famous two battles defeated the accumulation of wealth when the Han Dynasty was recuperating in the early Han Dynasty, and these two battles were only the real victory of the Han army against the Xiongnu, which was the "achievement" of the war launched by Emperor Wu of the Han Sanlu, and also proved that the Xiongnu were not terrible, at least it showed that they were more successful than Gaozu in dealing with the Xiongnu;

At the spiritual level, this constituted the internal drive for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to expand the scale of the war. From a strategic point of view, the Han army already had the strength to infiltrate Mobei, or it could see the possibility of driving the Xiongnu away from the border or even dividing them, so this constituted an external driving force to expand the scale of the war.

For the Central Plains Dynasty, the Huns really lived a "hillbilly" life, with neither a courtyard and a pavilion, nor a jade liquid, nor a fine food and clothing, which can be described as shabby.

However, if not compared with the Central Plains Dynasty, the quality of life of the Huns is actually not bad, relying on the Western Regions under their control, the Xiongnu can be "Changbi tax countries, take wealth to Yan", have a very considerable wealth, and with the help of these wealth, the Xiongnu in the goods of the Han Dynasty, can be obtained a lot of materials, including food, clothing, travel and other uses.

At the same time, as the exchanges between the Western Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu became more frequent and deeper, the Xiongnu were also able to obtain many advanced manufacturing technologies, such as bronze, iron, gold and silver, pottery and other manufacturing technologies.

Therefore, it can be said that the life of the Xiongnu people is far less bitter and cold than most people think, and their food, clothing, housing and transportation and other expenses are relatively better than those of other Asian countries except the Western Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was undoubtedly right to fight the Xiongnu.

He expanded the territory of China and gave the Chinese people a broader living space. From Qin to Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu have always been rampant, repeatedly committing border crimes, burning, killing and looting, and the people of Biansai have suffered a lot. The Qin Dynasty was powerful and capable of fighting against the Xiongnu, while when the Han Dynasty was first established, the world was in turmoil and a hundred ruins were waiting to be rebuilt, and the ruler had to swallow his anger and make peace with the Xiongnu.

By the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, after the accumulation of three generations and four emperors, the national strength was strong enough to compete with the Xiongnu. The shame of the Chinese nation for more than half a century should of course be washed away. The fight against the Xiongnu was also in response to the wishes of the countries of the Western Regions, which had been bullied for a long time, first the Da Yue clan and then the Xiongnu, all of whom ruled with iron and blood.

Introduction

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attacked the Xiongnu, and to a large extent, he also complied with the wishes of the people of the Western Regions. Objectively, it promotes the spread of culture. The fight against the Xiongnu also opened up the Silk Road and promoted cultural exchanges between the Central Plains and Central Asia.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty counterattacked the Xiongnu and curbed the raids of the Xiongnu iron cavalry on the Central Plains.

It is conducive to the security, stability and development of the Han Dynasty, and the three large-scale attacks on the Xiongnu have made the Xiongnu spirit knocked out, which is conducive to the tranquility of the border of the Han Dynasty, and has also created a historical opportunity for peaceful exchanges between the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty in the future, but Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty attacked the Xiongnu for the Western Han Dynasty, which consumed a lot of national strength and made the people of the Western Han Dynasty exhausted.

If you can control the invasion of the mausoleum, how can you kill more?

At the end of the Qin Dynasty and the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu leader Maodun unified the north and south of the desert, thus starting a protracted war between the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty.

The competition between the Han and Hungarian dynasties on the Han Sea in the desert lasted for more than three centuries, which had a far-reaching impact on the society of the Han Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, and also played an important role in the change of social mentality.

From the beginning of the Han Dynasty, after the Pingcheng War, the atmosphere of fear of the Huns was generally permeated among the government and the opposition, and it spread"Under the peaceful city, he is also sincere and bitter, and he can't eat and cross for seven days"This melodic and sentimental ballad was expressed by Huo Quai, who began to fight against the Xiongnu on a large scale during the period of Emperor Wu"The Huns were wiped out, and there was no home"the courage to fight a decisive battle; From the middle and late Western Han Dynasty"There is no dog barking police in the third world, and Li Shu is dead", full of praise for the peaceful coexistence of the Han and Hungarian nations, to the time of the two Han Dynasty when the war was rekindled, Dou Xian defeated the Northern Xiongnu, Ban Gu carved stone inscriptions in Yanran Mountain,"One time and a long time, temporary and forever", confidently announcing the end of the Han-Hungarian War.

It fundamentally destroyed the military strength of the Xiongnu, ensured the lasting peace of the Han Empire, accelerated the integration of ethnic groups, promoted friendly relations between the two (later harmony), and determined the subordinate status of the Xiongnu;

It cost a lot of money to the Han Empire, which led to a serious social crisis (there were millions of displaced people by the time of Emperor Wu), accelerated the decline of the Han Empire (there were financial problems), and both Han and Hungary had a large number of personnel**, which increased the burden on the people; led to the decline of the Xiongnu.

In the early days of the Han Dynasty, the strength was relatively weak, and the relationship with the Xiongnu could only adopt a policy of harmony in exchange for temporary peace. Later, when the Han Dynasty became stronger, it finally resolved the forced position with the Xiongnu through war.
