    Because the way it started is different. Zhao Kuangyin became the emperor without blood, and changed his surname as soon as the yellow robe was draped in the country. Therefore, his path to becoming emperor is full of darkness in people's hearts, not a struggle between blood and fire.

    That being the case, it is natural to adopt a different attitude when it comes to governing the country. Because Zhao Kuangyin is a person who seeks power and usurps the throne, he is even more afraid that the people below will be like himself, and the military power in his hands will be too large and come to his position. Therefore, he tried his best to curb all force, even the development of the army.

    People know that on the big level of the state and the state, only the fist is the truth, and everything else is false. Every founding emperor knew this most clearly, because they had experienced wars. However, Zhao Kuangyin didn't know, so the army of the Song Dynasty became a rabble under his containment.

    However, he also has his own idea of self-preservation, that is, "buy with money". Therefore, the Song Dynasty tried its best to develop the economy, and after fighting wars with neighboring countries, it hurriedly offered gold and silver treasures for safety.

    And the Ming Dynasty was different. Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty really relied on his fists to knock the world down with one punch. To put it mildly, every inch of land in the entire Ming Dynasty is the road that Zhu Yuanzhang has walked.

    On the road to becoming the emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang profoundly realized that if he wanted to be strong without being beaten, he had to be strong, and to be strong was to be strong. If you have money, you can't do it, if you have money and no fists, you can only become someone else's ATM, and if you don't have money, you can grab rich people's money. Therefore, the fist is the capital of the king.

    Therefore, after Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, although he vigorously developed the economy, he actually paid more attention to the strength of the army. And because he was born as a farmer, he knows the importance of the people's will even more, so he is more attentive to the matter of governing the country. Zhao Kuangyin of the Song Dynasty is different, he has never suffered hardships, and only knows how to protect his imperial power and enjoy happiness.

    Therefore, on the whole, the difference in strength between the Ming Dynasty and the Song Dynasty is actually mainly reflected in the strength of the army. This is so because the leaders of the two dynasties started out in different ways, resulting in different views on the military.

    Although there are many similarities between the Ming Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, the Song Dynasty emphasized literature over military force, so its military strength was weak, while the Ming Dynasty has always resisted foreign enemies and has strong military strength!

    The Song Dynasty system was open, and the national strength was strong, foreign enemies did not dare to invade, and the whole development process was very inclusive, while the entire feudal system during the Ming Dynasty began to tend to be strict, and began to have a tendency to close the country to the outside world, in comparison, the Song Dynasty was better.

    It is because the development speed of the Ming Dynasty is very slow, and it has encountered many problems in this process, and the ruler is not able to develop well in this situation, so the development speed is not as good as that of the Song Dynasty.

    The Ming Dynasty is indeed inferior to the Song Dynasty, because there is no particularly exciting scene in the Ming Dynasty, and the Song Dynasty still has the rule of Zhenguan. Such a prosperous scene as the rule of Wenjing. In the Ming Dynasty, it seems that such a scene was not thought of.

    1.In China's history, agricultural taxes have always been a major component of state revenues, and national taxes are levied on peasants. But in the Song Dynasty, taxes mainly came from industrial and commercial taxes, and by the Ming Dynasty, agricultural taxes were again dominant.

    In my opinion, the economy of the Song Dynasty was very developed, both inland and overseas. During the Northern Song Dynasty, Kaifeng was a very prosperous city. The convergence of population, the development of transportation, and the accumulation of wealth brought about by the political center made Kaifeng a very developed commercial city.

    The Song Dynasty levied a commercial tax, and the Ming Dynasty did not levy a commercial tax.

    2.I think the imperial examination system in the Song Dynasty was still being perfected. For example, Song Taizong adopted the method of pasting exams.

    At the same time, due to the popularization of printing, the Song dynasty achieved much more in education than previous generations. Hundreds of thousands of people took the exams in Fuzhou, showing the universality of education. Borrowing from the Buddhist monastic jungle system, educational institutions in the Song Dynasty were also constantly reformed.

    3.However, in the Ming Dynasty, the education system centered on the imperial examination had already gone downhill. Of course, in the beginning, educational institutions were also greatly simplified.

    ** There are no schools under and elementary schools are cancelled at the local level. Although its original intention was to replace the extremely difficult imperial examinations in the Tang Dynasty with the scores and history of officials and students, the number of direct officials and students was very small, resulting in a large backlog of officials and students. In addition, the material preferential policies of the Ming Dynasty to scholars eventually created a corrupt and parasitic scholar class, which was also an important reason for the demise of the Ming Dynasty.

    4.The Beijing War originated from the "civilian" fort after the defeat in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the civil official Yu Qian was born, and the commander was temporarily brought in at the emergency moment, organized the remaining troops in Kyoto of the Ming Dynasty, raided Olad, and saved the bad luck of the Ming Dynasty, 200 people survived in the Ming Dynasty, and successfully held a "struggle" in Beijing, not only Yu Qian arranged every square, but also contributed to the military system of the Ming Dynasty. This war also allows us to see that the Ming Dynasty, which also "admired literature and suppressed martial arts", was far superior to Lu Yanshu of the Song Dynasty in terms of military strength.

    Qi Xia and other famous historians believe that during the Song and Song dynasties, China's economic and cultural development was unprecedented, and it was also a powerful international force at that time when compared horizontally with Europe. According to the famous British historian Madison, if the purchasing power of the US dollar in 1990 is used to calculate the per capita gross domestic product (GDP) of the Song Dynasty, then by the end of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin was 450 US dollars, and the per capita GDP was 600 US dollars.

    The level of commercial development in the Song Dynasty was significantly higher than that of agriculture, and the overall level of agricultural development in the Song Dynasty was lower than that of the Ming Dynasty due to Zhao Kuangyin's non-interference with the landlord's annexation policy. It was precisely because of the severity of the landlord annexation that many people became craftsmen and promoted the development of commerce in the Song Dynasty. It was also due to the development of commerce in the Song Dynasty that traditional metal money was in short supply, and paper money began to appear.

    The advent of paper money also greatly contributed to the economic development of the Song Dynasty.

    But in the Song Dynasty, they had to pay protection fees to neighboring countries, and they had no choice but to vigorously develop the economy and find wealth. The economy of the Ming Dynasty, first of all, the population of the Ming Dynasty, most scholars believe that it cannot be compared with the Song Dynasty, plus the territory of the Ming Dynasty is vast, so the population density is relatively low, so the number of commercial towns is relatively small compared to the Song Dynasty. However, there are few wealthy commercial cities, mainly concentrated south of the Yangtze River.

    In addition, the Ming Dynasty did not pay enough attention to commerce, and the status of craftsmen was relatively low and could not be examined. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, and especially at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the germ of capitalism in the Song Dynasty did not continue in the Ming Dynasty, but was stifled by the policies of the time.

    The Ming Dynasty is better than the conclusion of the two Song Dynasty in terms of politics, military affairs, economy, and comparison. The economy of the Song Dynasty was strong, and in the history of China, the economy, culture, handicrafts, and manufacturing of the Song Dynasty were all recorded, especially in Quanzhou and other places to set up the city of the Department of Overseas Jurisdiction, which shows the economic prosperity of the Song Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty China has begun to close the country.
