President Meng did not hesitate, nodded and said: "Naturally, Mongolia has been a part of my China since ancient times, and our own hearts are opened, and the people around China who are influenced by Chinese civilization are all people from China."
If there were many of them and few Han Chinese, it would be a different matter, although they were the ruling class at that time, they also had to manage the country by integrating into the country, so they were part of Chinese history. ”"This is the biggest advantage of China, no matter what nationality, there will never be a nation that surpasses the number of Han people, it is too huge."
Catherine snorted, "Then Genghis Khan should also be able to enter the top three candidates." ”Genghis Khan launched the largest war in the history of mankind, he created the largest country in the world, pushed military art to the peak of the cold weapon age, he is the most influential figure in the stage of world history, is the greatest success in the history of mankind, he brought the greatest disaster to mankind, his actions left the greatest controversy for future generations, he is the most influential emperor in the world in Chinese history, Genghis Khan.Genghis Khan and his descendants fought fiercely for decades, unifying China, plundering Europe, conquering India, Egypt, and Korea, invading Japan, entering Vietnam, and pacifying Java, successively destroying more than 40 countries, conquering more than 720 ethnic groups, and launching the largest war in the history of mankind.The Mongol cavalry swept through four-fifths of the entire human world in the thirteenth century, stepping out of the Mongol Empire, the largest country in human history, and creating a miracle in the history of human warfare.Genghis Khan left a national pride to future generations, which not only has an important position in Chinese history, but is also a heroic figure with worldwide influence.Western scholars call Genghis Khan "the emperor of all mankind."
Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian made a nation survive in a desperate situation, he made a civilization continue, he made a country that was no longer a country miraculously reunified, and he laid the foundation for the prosperity of a nation.After the fall of the Han Dynasty, the young Han people were caught in the chaos of three and a half centuries of war.By the time of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Han nationality had been depressed after a long war, and it was no longer the Han people who dominated the land of China, but the people who were called barbarians by the Han people.Because the Han people were no longer able to fight, most of the strong young men died in battle, and the rest were mostly old, weak, sick and disabled.The Han Chinese were no longer able to stop the invasion.During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, various barbarian tribes invaded the Central Plains in large numbers and established their own states on Chinese soil.The number is already more than the Han Chinese.The invaders have taken over, and history is known as the Five Chaos of China.At the same time, years of war have severely damaged China's culture and architecture, and many ancient civilizations of the Qin and Han dynasties have been reduced to ashes.A large number of cultural scrolls were burned, and Chinese civilization disappeared completely.Foreign religious cultures gradually ruled China, and temples were built everywhere in the Central Plains to worship foreign gods.Foreign Buddhism has far surpassed Confucianism, which was admired by the Han Chinese.Alien music, dance, sculpture, and painting completely dominated China.China is about to become barbaric.At this time, a shining name appeared in China's darkest history, a generation of great emperors, Emperor Wen of Sui, Yang Jian.Yang Jian succeeded in usurping the most powerful Hu regime in China at that time and established the Sui Dynasty at the most dangerous moment when the Han people were facing extermination.The Hu rulers were extremely repulsive to the Han Chinese and were keen on Huhua.Yang Jian's ancestors were given the surname Hu for their meritorious service to the Hu people, and after Yang Jian usurped the throne, he immediately restored his Han surname, stopped the trend of Hu in military and political circles, and practiced Sinicization.Emperor Wen of Sui advocated frugality, diligent administration of government affairs, and implemented a policy of leniency and benevolence to the people, realizing a smooth transition from the Hu regime to the Han regime.Through a series of reforms, Yang Jian significantly increased the population, gradually enriched food and clothing, strengthened the national strength, and finally regained the strength of the Han nationality.Emperor Wen of Sui led this strong national force to conquer all ethnic barbarians, so that China returned to the era of peace, and completed an almost impossible feat, known as the "rule of the emperor" in history.Yang Jian saved Han culture and Chinese civilization.The cultural classics of the Spring and Autumn Period, Qin and Han dynasties were lost after the Five Hu Chaohua, and Emperor Wen of Sui issued an edict to ask for books after unifying the whole country.The Han people who lived after the war donated books one after another, making the Sui Dynasty the largest collection of books in all Chinese dynasties.Although most of the classics could not escape the flames of war, how many outstanding scholars, how many great works, and how many splendor of Chinese civilization have disappeared into the dust of history, as long as the thoughts of the hundred schools of thought are still there, as long as the Confucian classics still exist, the banner of the Han nationality is still flying, and the Chinese civilization is still standing in the east of the world.Emperor Wen of Sui unified the currency system, and weights and measures were reunified during the reign of Emperor Wen of Sui.The brutal and chaotic laws of the Hu people were abolished, and the reform of the penal system since the reform of the penal system of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was restored and completed, and the laws revised by Yang Jian were basically inherited by Tang Taizong.Yang Jian abolished the bureaucracy of the Hu people and restored and reformed the system of the Han Dynasty, which was later inherited and carried forward by Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.The ancient Chinese bureaucracy was customised from the Sui Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty.The imperial examination system pioneered by Yang Jian has survived in Chinese history for more than 1,300 years and was used until the end of the Qing Dynasty.Although the Sui Dynasty founded by Yang Jian lasted only 37 years, it had a huge and far-reaching impact on later generations of China.The delay of the Sui Dynasty's army prevented the surrounding alien races from becoming strong and rising, and laid a solid foundation for the arrival of the Tang Dynasty.Later, Tang Taizong inherited the national system and political and economic system founded by Emperor Wen of Sui, took over the torch of Emperor Suiwen, and finally created a prosperous era of China.After the collapse of the Roman Empire, Europe fell into a dark abyss of division, and the ancient Roman civilization disappeared, and Europe was never unified again.Compared with the Eastern civilization at that time, after the collapse of the Han Empire, it was with Emperor Wen of Sui that China re-embarked on the road of unification, and the Chinese civilization was far from the danger of being destroyed.Emperor Wen of Sui is recognized by Western historians as the greatest emperor in Chinese history for his outstanding contributions to the unification of China and the continuation of Chinese civilization.Qin Shi Huang, the emperor of Qianqiu, must occupy a place, he conformed to the trend of the times to end the situation of hundreds of years of separation, he realized the great unification of the Chinese nation, he made a groundbreaking contribution to the development of China's feudal society, he made China into the era of centralized imperial power, he was the founder of China's first unified empire, he was China's first feudal emperor.Ying Zheng was born in the Zhao State, fled from the Zhao State back to the Qin State at the age of 10, became the Qin King at the age of 13, abolished the ministers at the age of 22, monopolized the government, destroyed the Six Kingdoms at the age of 39, and established the first unified multi-ethnic autocratic centralized state in Chinese history.Qin Shi Huang implemented a series of measures to consolidate the unified centralized state in terms of internal economic and cultural thought, which further consolidated the unified situation.Resist the Xiongnu in the north and build the Great Wall.The southern expansion of Baiyue made China the largest empire in the world at that time.Although his empire collapsed in an instant, the feudal monarchy he created lasted for more than two thousand years.More than 2,000 years have passed, the long river of history has washed away, everything in the world has long been wrong, only the majestic Great Wall is still quietly winding in the north of China, telling the world thousands of years of vicissitudes.Perhaps Qin Shi Huang would not have thought that his life would have a far-reaching impact on China's history for thousands of years in the future, nor would he have expected that the controversy over himself would continue across thousands of years, but he instilled the concept of a world into the world through his own eloquence and strategy, and the idea of "the whole world is not the king's land" began to penetrate into the hearts of the people from that moment, and a unified and powerful nation has since stood in the east of the world, and has been blooming to the world for more than 2,000 years in the future.The foundation of the first emperor is in the future.The unification of the written language made it the foundation of a nation, and continues to be used today.Abolishing the division of feuds and establishing counties and counties became the standard mode of management after China's unification in the future, which lasted for thousands of years.The unification of currency and weights and measures greatly facilitated domestic exchanges in commerce.The cars are on the same track, the road is at the same distance, and the construction of the Qinzhi Road greatly facilitates domestic transportation.Objectively speaking, the burning of the history books of the Six Nations unified thinking and avoided the division of the country due to historical problems.However, the ancient books of various countries that were destroyed were preserved in copies, and the subsequent destruction was caused by Xiang Yu's burning of the Qin capital.The construction of the Ling Canal strengthened control over the Pearl River basin and made the region forever part of China's territory.The Great Wall was built as an important line of defense against the invasion of the Hu people in the north, and the Great Wall became a national border for a long time.The southern conquest of South Vietnam included Fujian, Zhejiang, and Liangguang into the Chinese territory.Attack the Xiongnu in the north, recapture the Hetao region, and make the region the territory of China forever.So far, the basic pattern of China's unified multi-ethnic centralized state has been laid.Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty established the unprecedented dignity of a country, he gave an ethnic group the self-confidence to stand tall for a thousand years, he shaped a great era in which a nation rose up to become strong, he created an imperial legend that has been passed down through the ages, and he performed a fierce war in which heaven and earth wept blood.His name became the eternal name of a great nation.He was a true Emperor of Shengwu in Chinese history.He is Liu Che, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty.Liu Che was born in an imperial family, and since he was a child, he has undergone strict and systematic training for the purpose of governing the world.But this did not erase Liu Che's independent personality and vigor as a young man.Liu Che was always ambitious and full of self-confidence, and was a standard monarch with an imperial spirit.When he was young, Liu Che took Qin Shi Huang as a role model and aspired to become a generation of heroes with the domineering spirit of a king.As early as the Qin Shi Huang period, the Xiongnu relied on strong soldiers and horses to repeatedly invade the south, and Qin Shi Huang could only build the Great Wall for defense.In the early years of the Han Dynasty, the strength of the Xiongnu reached its peak, and after unifying Mobei, they invaded the Han land on a large scale.Liu Bangqin led a large army to meet the attack, but was defeated by the Xiongnu, coupled with the war at the end of the Qin Dynasty, the population decreased, the economy withered, and was unable to resist the Xiongnu to attack, so the Han Dynasty had to pay tribute to the Xiongnu to sue for peace, and married the princess to the Xiongnu Shan Yu, and suffered humiliation.During the reign of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jingdi, the Xiongnu kept entering the Han land to burn and loot.Forced by the disparity in strength, the two emperors of Wenjing superficially allowed the Xiongnu to do evil, but secretly developed the economy, trained the army, and never forgot the national shame.After the hard and bitter rule of Wenjing, when Liu Che ascended the throne, the grain and grass in the treasury of the Han Dynasty were piled up, and the people had horses and horses, and everyone was good at riding.The national strength is strong enough, and finally the conditions for a nation to become self-reliant and self-reliant are finally met.In the face of the nomadic people who were born immediately, grew up immediately, and were extremely brave, and in the face of the continuous invasion of the powerful Huns, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who was only 16 years old, made a decision that shocked the ages with amazing courage and courage: to attack the Xiongnu from afar.From the beginning, his gaze had already gone beyond the limited area of the Han Empire within the Great Wall barrier.His strategic thinking of turning defense into offense far surpassed his time, and became an example for later Tang Taizong, Genghis Khan, Ming Chengzu, and Kangxi to follow.Guided by the strategic thinking of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he became the only emperor in the history of the world to lead an agrarian nation to sweep away the nomads.After his descendants completely defeated the Xiongnu, they pursued and killed the remnants of the Xiongnu for 6,000 miles, beheaded the Xiongnu in the Western Regions, and left a famous saying: Those who commit strong Han will be punished even though they are far away.Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was a truly great king who inherited the past and opened up the world.In the history before him, he has achieved unparalleled martial arts.His imagination and ingenuity made political struggles an art.His contingencies and cunning made the wise men of his time look like fools.Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had a broad mind, both the amount of tolerance and the wisdom of connoisseurship.Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty created era names and was also the first emperor in China to use era names.At the beginning of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, he continued the policy of maintaining health and relieving the people implemented by his father during his lifetime, further weakened the power of the princes, and promulgated the Tui'en Decree proposed by the minister's father, and used the legal system to promote the princes to divide their sons into marquis, so that the fiefs of the princes had to shrink themselves.At the same time, he set up a history of assassination and supervised the place.In the military and economy, the centralization of power was strengthened, and the private business of iron smelting, salt boiling, and brewing was organized into the central government, and at the same time, the vassal states were forbidden to mint money, so that the financial power was centralized in the center.He adopted Dong Zhongshu's suggestion to "depose the hundred schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone", which paved the way for Confucianism to become the status of feudal orthodoxy.However, in fact, there was never a lack of the idea of the rule of law during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, while promoting Confucianism, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty also used laws and regulations and criminal law to consolidate the authority of the government and show the status of imperial power, so sinologists believe that this should be more based on law and supplemented by Confucianism, internal law and external Confucianism, to promote Confucianism to the general public to show the gentleness of the government, and to impose harsh criminal law on the government to restrain ministers.Xuanru is not the same as abandoning the law, and the law is still the final means of adjudication during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the active use of Ji Di and the palace punishment of Sima Qian at that time are famous examples.The Spring Festival began with the change of the calendar at the beginning of the year, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty corrected Shuo.During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Wei Qinghuo went to attack the Xiongnu three times on a large scale, and sealed the wolf Juxu.Zhang Qian sent an envoy to the Western Regions to open up the Silk Road.Since then, the Western Regions has become a meeting place of several major civilizations, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is known as the "crown of a hundred kings".He pioneered the system, established the scale, admired scholarship, and loved literary talent.He advocated the establishment of the country by virtue and the rule of law.He is a self-confident, thoughtful, independent thinker, and a promising monarch with absolute power, a majestic emperor, and has set a model for hundreds of emperors.His achievements and deeds have also been deeply integrated into the history and traditions of our nation.For the first time, he laid the foundation for China's vast territory.The government of China began with Qin Shi Huang, and the state of China began with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had a great strategy that transcended history, and his martial arts achievements were enough to overshadow the kings of the world such as Alexander and Napoleon in the West.In Chinese history, there is no shortage of heroes, great men and saints.However, placed in any crowd, he will be equally striking.It is impossible for anyone not to admire him, and it is impossible not to be afraid of him, this is the Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, made a country have the bearing of being proud of the others, he made a nation have a lofty international status and brilliant economic and cultural achievements, and he made all countries in the world come to trade and cultural exchanges.The strong national strength and open and inclusive mentality he forged enabled a nation to win unprecedented respect from foreign races.He is the greatest all-round emperor in Chinese history, Tang Taizong Li Shimin.Li Shimin was born in an aristocratic family, and at the age of 18, he raised troops with his father to oppose the Sui Dynasty, commanded the three armies, and made the number one military achievement for the Tang Dynasty to unify the country.He then became the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty and was known as Taizong in history.The Turkic leaders of the northern steppe peoples have been peeking at the fertile fields of the Central Plains, taking advantage of the fact that Taizong was not stable, he personally led 200,000 iron cavalry to threaten Chang'an, and the troops came to the city, and the Tang Dynasty fell into turmoil.At the critical juncture of the life and death of the country and the nation, Li Shimin, who was strong by nature and good at using soldiers, was not alarmed by the chaos and personally led the army to repel the strong enemy.Subsequently, Li Shimin judged the situation and made the difficult choice of pouring his treasury into peace with the powerful Turks in exchange for time for the country's fertility and development, thus avoiding the danger of the collapse and extinction of the country and the nation.Tang Taizong, who had great ambitions and tenacity, was determined to lead the military ministers and people to revitalize the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible, eliminate the Turks who had dominated the north for many years, realize the unification of the country, and revitalize the heroic style of the Han Dynasty.In the following three years, Li Shimin tried his courage and made great efforts, on the one hand, he developed production and strengthened national strength, and on the other hand, he strengthened army training, improved the combat effectiveness of the Tang army, and created a cavalry capable of competing with the Turkic iron cavalry.The Tang Dynasty's counterattack on the desert heroes finally began, and according to Li Shimin's careful plan, an elite cavalry with super combat ability returned to the back of the Turkic army to launch a surprise attack.The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, who were full of enthusiasm for serving the country, shared the same hatred and won a complete victory.With extraordinary courage and military talent, Tang Taizong commanded the Tang army to repel the powerful nomads in the north in one fell swoop, and realized the great unification of the country.After the war, in order to quickly move the country to the track of peaceful construction, Taizong tried his best to abandon hatred, implement a policy of national unity, and boldly relocated hundreds of thousands of nomadic tribesmen who were in the midst of famine to the interior, and allocated fertile land to them to cultivate, so that the nomads could survive in a desperate situation.This large-scale population migration saved the people of the grassland, they were deeply infected by the broad mind of Tang Taizong's love for all ethnic groups, and the contradictions accumulated over the centuries of fighting each other were resolved, and the sons and daughters of all ethnic groups lived in harmony within the vast territory of the Tang Dynasty, jointly built a strong country in the east, and further realized the great integration of ethnic groups.After years of war, the people's livelihood in the early days of Zhenguan was withered, and all kinds of waste were waiting to be revived, Li Shimin, who was only 29 years old, had political foresight and sagacity, and chose the road of peaceful construction for the country, and implemented a series of enlightened strategies for governing the country, unswervingly focused on supporting and promoting agriculture and mulberry, boldly cut officials and reassured the people, selected talents without sticking to one pattern, and humbly accepted advice, so that the Tang Dynasty embarked on a road of rapid development, a prosperous picture depicted with blood and sweat, began to unfold in the vast land of China, which was once full of disasters and difficulties.With his extraordinary leadership, Tang Taizong controlled the Chinese talents with extraordinary wisdom and strategy, achieved the perfect combination of governing the country and governing the people, and made extraordinary achievements in cultural governance and martial arts, and was recognized by historians as the most accomplished emperor in ancient China, and became a model for the emperors of China and even the world."
That's pretty much it, the top ten are not very controversial, the top three are more difficult to judge, one place is not controversial for Qin Shi Huang, and the other two are not easy to say.I think one should be left for Zhu Yuanzhang and one for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. ”Catherine concluded, and asked Emperor Hua, "Does Your Majesty think that Zhu Yuanzhang is qualified to be among the top three emperors in the history of China?"
"Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born as a commoner, led a peasant rebel army to overthrow the rule of the Yuan Dynasty and unify the country.After that, it strengthened the centralization of power, stabilized the political situation, adjusted the relations of production, and resumed the development of the economy, laying a solid foundation for the development of the Ming Dynasty.The set of rules and regulations he formulated also provided the necessary guarantee for the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty, and was mostly inherited by the Qing Dynasty, which had a profound impact on the subsequent historical development.Zhu Yuanzhang's historical merits far surpassed those of the founding emperors of the new dynasty after China's previous peasant wars.Zhu Yuanzhang, who was born at the bottom of society, is undoubtedly a well-known figure in Chinese history.As the entrepreneurial emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang in his youth was just a cattle herding baby in the Huaihe River valley at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, just a little monk who had to wander for three years in order to barely survive.But it was this fugitive who once had nothing, who defected to the peasant rebel army at the age of 24, started as a small soldier, and only after 17 years of legendary struggle and conquest, he actually ascended to the throne of the founding son of the country.However, the evaluation of Zhu Yuanzhang has always been full of opinions and reputations, so that to this day, this kind of admiration, praise and spittle dedicated to him can still set off a stormy controversy if it is stimulated properly.But no matter how you look at it, with Zhu Yuanzhang's legendary and glorious military resume and governing career, he obviously has every reason to be elected as one of the top three greatest politicians and military strategists in China's feudal society.Maybe even the first place.Negative remarks about Zhu Yuanzhang, such as killing heroes and the so-called literary prison. ”Hua Huang replied.Catherine smiled, "Your Majesty still didn't directly say whether Zhu Yuanzhang is qualified to enter the top three." ”t1706231537:
