The problem of the Chinese peasant war, the reason for the failure of the old peasant war in modern

Positive aspects:

1. First of all, the process of history was promoted, the leader of the peasant uprising became the later monarch, and even more, a new social system was established, and the peasant war became a tool for changing the dynasty and pushing history forward.

2. To a certain extent, to promote the development of agricultural production, the peasant war, regardless of success or failure, dealt a heavy blow to feudal rule to a great extent, forcing the feudal ruling class to take measures to lighten the burden on the peasants, recuperate, reduce taxes, restore production, and promote the development of agricultural production.

3. Alleviate class contradictions, especially the rulers who ascended to the throne from the peasant wars were well aware of the power of peasant uprisings, and they were easy to win over the landlord class and appease the peasant class, thus easing the class contradictions to a certain extent.

Negative aspect: It has destroyed agricultural production, caused a large loss of human, material and financial resources, ruined people's lives, and reduced living standards, which has also affected social and economic development within a certain range.

In fact, our war on educating the peasants is no longer as emphasized as it used to be, and we must not call for a citizens' uprising now. In the past, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was highly evaluated, but later when China was involved in the issue of cults, Hong Xiuquan made his fortune by relying on religious forms, so there was also controversy. Sometimes the evaluation of historical issues has a lot to do with current politics.

Take, for example, the Taiping Peasant War.

1. The historical significance of the Peasant War in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

1) Dealt a heavy blow to the rule of the Qing Dynasty.

2) Effectively dealt a blow to foreign invading forces.

3) The exploration of the way out of the modern state.

4) The Taiping Rebellion also attacked the orthodox authority of Confucius and the Confucian classics.

5) The Taiping Rebellion struck a blow at the Western colonial forces and gave impetus to the national liberation movements in Asia.

2. The reasons and lessons of the defeat of the peasant war in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

1) Reasons for failure.

a.Objective reason: the joint strangulation of Chinese and foreign reactionary forces.

b.Subjective reasons: the limitations and weaknesses of the peasant class.

Specifically, there is no advanced theory to guide the revolution. There is no scientific and thorough revolutionary program and no correct revolutionary policy guidelines.

2) Lessons from the Taiping Rebellion and its defeat showed that in semi-colonial and semi-feudal China, the peasants had great revolutionary potential; But it could not shoulder the heavy responsibility of leading the anti-imperialist and anti-feudal struggle to victory. A simple peasant war could not accomplish the historical task of fighting for national independence and the people's liberation.

First of all, it is the most important thing to save your own life, and secondly, the country definitely needs food, you can grow food, protect your family, and pay attention to whether the outbreak of war will affect you.

The peasants should actively cooperate with the call of the state, not to cause chaos to the country, and at the same time prepare for self-sufficiency in grain.

1. Farmers should do a good job in grain production and prepare for grain self-sufficiency;

2. The distinction between rich and poor should be put down;

3. Do a good job and do not add chaos to the country;

4. Obey the best arrangement and lay a good foundation for victory;

5. "The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband"!

The international situation is changing, the United States, as the epicenter of the epidemic storm, has a tendency to get out of control, and the risk of war is increasing.

In fact, I think we should do our own work well and contribute our strength to the country and the people.

The Peasant War was caused by the development of feudal land ownership and the widespread spread of serfdom at the end of the 16th century, which led to the aggravation of the exploitation of the peasants, which sharply sharpened class contradictions. In this situation, peasants, serfs, burghers and free Cossacks became the main motive force of the peasant war, and their struggle was supported by other groups in the lower strata of society. Zaporozhye and Masak also took an active part in this struggle.

The peasant uprising, as the name suggests, was dominated by desperate peasants. Most do not have a unified action. Fighting on their own is easy to be broken by the officers and soldiers.

The military command ability of the leaders of the peasant uprising was far from that of the generals of the regular army, and there were not enough officers at the lower levels to ensure the efficiency of the command at all levels.

Even with some success, most of the rebel leaders have become new exploiters, but they have little management skills and experience. Unable to operate in an orderly manner in the areas under their rule to support further military operations, they often feed their wars with war, plundering everywhere for supplies, and unable to fight effectively for a long time.

Personally, I think there are many reasons why absolute victory cannot be achieved:

1. In the absence of unified guidance, it is necessary to have methods and tactics to fight a war, and if the peasant army lacks effective guidance, it will be like a plate of scattered sand.

2. The limitations of the ruling group of the peasant army, and the purpose of the peasant army is very simple. It is to resist and make your own decisions, and when you achieve victory, it is easy to see the situation clearly, such as the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom at the end of the Qing Dynasty, when you make a little achievement, you don't want to forge ahead.

3. The peasants lack a correct political program and are too idealistic.

Without a clear goal, I don't know how to analyze the trend of social development, and there is it in the "Basic Introduction to Marxism"!

However, it must be admitted that without the support of intellectuals, a pure peasant uprising is a group of rabble, who studied in the feudal period, pay attention to self-cultivation, rule the country and level the world, loyalty and filial piety etiquette are the minimum criteria, and the really high-level people have always served the landlord class, and rarely participated in the peasant uprising, even if the peasant uprising has millions of troops, it cannot change the nature of the rabble, and at most it has become a warlord.

However, the peasant uprising will bring great damage to the interests of the landlord class and to the productive forces, and it will inevitably be resisted by the landlord class with all its might. The landlords were not suppressing the peasant uprising for any dynasty, but for their own benefit.

There have been countless peasant uprisings in Chinese history, but only Zhu Yuanzhang succeeded once and established the Ming Dynasty, and at other times, the peasant uprisings were used as cannon fodder for the change of dynasty of the landlord class, and the final victory was still the local tyrants and feudal nobles.

Zhu Yuanzhang, amazing. In fact, he was lucky, Huang Chao, Li Zicheng, Hong Xiuquan, and their level was no worse than Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang's success is because he led, strictly speaking, it was not a peasant uprising, but the independent revolution of the Han nation, the national oppression policy of the Yuan Dynasty, too explicit, in a hundred years, there were few imperial examinations, and the intellectuals of the landlord class had no way out, so they had to defect to Zhu Yuanzhang, therefore, from the very beginning, they could get the support of the Han landlord class and the intellectual elite, coupled with the majority of peasants as the main force, to achieve the only peasant emperor in history.

Therefore, only Zhu Yuanzhang has Liu Bowen around him, Li Zicheng has no around him, Huang Chao has no around him, Hong Xiuquan has no around him, China except for the Yuan Dynasty does not open the imperial examination, and the landlords and gentry intellectual elites are forced to the anti-Yuan cause, all other dynasties, there are no imperial examinations, there are also channels such as recommendations, the Internet of talents in the world, intellectuals have a way out, and the orthodox Han dynasty was not popular at that time, the rebellion is justified, Zhu Yuanzhang's origin as a beggar for food, digging deep holes, accumulating grain, slowly becoming king, driving out Hu Lu, restoring China, He can put forward these slogans.

Hong Xiuquan was unlucky, and proposed that the cultivators have their fields, but the slogan of expelling Hulu and restoring China was not raised, which shows the difference in the theoretical level of his leadership. When encountering Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang, a high-level landlord class intellectual, will perish sooner or later.

Li Zicheng was even worse, he knocked down the city of Beijing, but he still couldn't change the nature of the rogue, he entered Beijing, and he knew that he was the emperor, but he didn't even know who the emperor represented, and how could the head of the landlord class torture the landlords and bureaucrats. As a result, Shengsheng tortured Wu Sangui backwards and lost this low-hanging fruit.

The peasants have no level, after all, they are a rabble, and they cannot become an atmosphere at all.

Why is it a positive review? Because I thought I was the one who started in this business, and the emperor took turns to do it, and he came to my house today.

China's revolutionary history of several thousand years has been a peasant revolution, which has the following characteristics: 1. The peasants, as the lowest level of the previous dynasties, were the driving force of the revolution.2 After the success of the peasant revolution, due to the limitations of the peasant class, there has been no systematic breakthrough so far.

3. In the absence of real change, the peasant regime will go to the next round of peasant uprising.

An instrument for the changing of the dynasty of the exploiting class.
