Historical evaluation of Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty

Qin Shi Huang abolished the division of feuds, the county and county, the book with the text, the car with the track, the unified weights and measures, the construction of water conservancy, for the benefit of the people, the Great Wall, the protection of China, the south of the hundred Yue, the north of the Xiongnu, annexation of the eight wilderness, the shock of the four seas, the immortal achievements of the world, the foundation of the world's great powers, the opening of the world, the emperor of the ages.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has always been controversial.

Led by Fan Wenlan, Jian Bozan, Lin Yijun, etc., the affirmers believe that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "created the heyday of military and cultural prosperity in the Western Han Dynasty"; His "more than fifty years of reign were the heyday of the Western Han Dynasty; His cultural and martial arts have had a far-reaching influence in history, and he is the "figure of a hundred generations" of the Chinese nation.

The negators, represented by Wang Liansheng and Ye Youming, believe that the "eloquence and strategy" of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty should be re-recognized, and that "its role is basically reactionary"; The reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was "the turning point of the Western Han Dynasty from strong to weak", and Emperor Wu was the master of this turning point, "He played a destructive and hindering role in the social development of that time"; "On the whole, it should be said that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was a tyrant in the history of our country, and he was too much for the development of history"; Wait a minute.

"Pity": 1 "Pity" contains praise, affirming that they are outstanding heroes in Chinese history. They have made great achievements in their lives and have had a tremendous impact on the development of Chinese history. To affirm them is to affirm that the Chinese nation is a great nation that has produced many heroes.

2. The word "pity" euphemistically criticizes their shortcomings. They have been criticized for being shorter than "Wenzhi," for not making many achievements in politics, ideology, and culture, and for lacking their literary talents.

3. The word "pity" contains the great spirit of the latecomers and embodies the firm belief that the revolutionary heroes of the proletariat will surely prevail over their predecessors.

Extension: Qin Shi Huang: Sweep away the Six Kingdoms, open up Lingnan, lay the traditional map of China, and establish the great cause of immortality.

The construction of the Great Wall, the construction of the Qin Mausoleum, and the construction of the Afang Palace are all human miracles, but the labor and loss of money, coupled with the strict law, the burning of books and the pit of Confucianism, are criticized by later generations. Its merits are also great, and its disadvantages are also profound, and the evaluation is polar. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty:

Thanks to the foundation laid by his father, Emperor Wu reached the peak of the Han Dynasty in terms of culture and martial arts, which can be regarded as the peak of Chinese history. The expulsion of the Xiongnu from Mobei and the opening up of the Western Regions in Haixi are still rumored to be beautiful talks. The beginning of the Han Dynasty's decline from prosperity to decline; The disappearance of the pluralism of Chinese thought, the turning point of Chinese history, the benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise.

As far as Emperor Wu himself is concerned, there is no great goodness to show for it. The matter of Emperor Wu is also polarized.

Qin Shi Huang's personality is more introverted and withdrawn, maybe this has something to do with his upbringing, who his father may not even know his mother very well, and his titular father Zhuang Xiang Wang Yingzi Chu does not like him very much. But objectively speaking, Qin Shi Huang unified the other six countries to form China's first multi-ethnic consent state, and indeed he has indelible merits!

Compared with Qin Shi Huang, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is relatively simple, but his throne has more restrictions than Qin Shi Huang, such as his grandmother Dou family, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is a beautiful woman, such as his first queen Chen Ajiao, and for example, the maid Wei Zifu, who was originally a lowly family. Overall, though, Emperor Wu of Han was an amorous emperor. And he had his own ambitions, he destroyed the Xiongnu, through the Western Regions, to make the Han Dynasty strong and formed the world-famous economic and cultural circle headed by the Han Dynasty at that time.

Let's keep it to the point. Divide your love to show your eyesight and historical level.

How can Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty compare with Qin Shi Huang. A good emperor in history, with a tyrant. Of course, this is explained in a simple policy sense.

I don't approve of the comparison between the two, of course, there are historians who "guide" us there. However, we do not dare to agree with this one-sided and simplistic understanding. What the merits are, it is enough to see who is more influential today.

1 Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty cannot compare with the exploits of Qin Shi Huang. If you have to compare, it will be calculated according to the degree of education obtained from the political science degree. Qin Shi Huang was a doctor, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was an undergraduate at most.

2 Qin Shi Huang is the "first emperor of the ages" throughout the ages, 21-31 years old (I can't remember exactly, about this age), and unified the six kingdoms in ten years. Barely a year and a half to beat one. It's not so fast to level up the game now.

3. Unified text, unified weights and measures, the same text for books, and the same track for cars. Without Qin Shi Huang, China would be similar to Europe. The European Union was also the political form of Zhou Tianzi's feudal system at that time.

A small country also has to use its own script, which especially hinders communication, communication. If the tracks are different, the train from Beijing will run out of the city and stop at the boundary of Tianjin. Weights and measures are even more so.

You see that in the current market, it is not enough to weigh by catty, which shows that this is related to the problem of the people's vegetable basket. Unification is very, very necessary drops

4. Establish ** centralization. Not much to say about this. To this day, cough cough, we still use it. Ancestral things, ahem

5 The Legal System Qin Shi Huang admired Han Feizi very much, and although the Legalists criticized it a lot, the introduction and establishment of the system in the early days were all methods practiced by some politically ambitious politicians with a "perfectionist" temperament through the lessons of blood, and its purpose was to prove whether it was effective or ineffective. Although the Qin dynasty was short-lived, it was not enough to prove the failure of the rule of law. "Outer Confucianism and Internal Law" has always been the essence of Chinese political science.

6 The Great Wall The Great Wall was the Great Wall in all countries before the Qin Dynasty, and Qin Shi Huang connected it together, which played a prominent role in ancient times. Now it is a famous scenic spot at home and abroad.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, except for inheriting Lao Tzu's thrifty family background and the stinky man who hides the delicate house in the golden house, I don't see anything good about him. Not to mention the Huns. Lift it up and get angry.

Sima Qian was imprisoned for Mao, and he was corrupted for Mao? It would be wrong to kill General Lee. It also harms our elite intellectuals.

This act is very hateful When Qin Shi Huang sent troops to the Xiongnu, did you hear that he killed his own general? Let's just say "burning books and pit Confucianism", that is indeed Qin Shi Huang wrong. But you look at the ones that follow along.

Although the latter ones are not good at learning, it is because of the influence of Qin Shi Huang.

Let's talk about Zhang Qian, ten years have passed, and he was arrested. I came back and was caught again, and this time I was caught, and even my wife and children were equipped. I don't see how much of a contribution it makes.

At most, it can be regarded as a public dispatch to go abroad and come back without mixing well. Therefore, I don't have a good impression of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
