Chapter 910: The Reason for the Five Disorders
Chapter 910 Five Reasons for the Chaos of China
Qin An's voice suddenly became heavy, and he said, "This dynasty is called Jin, not to mention that the status is not right, but more importantly, this is a chaotic dynasty.
The emperors only knew how to enjoy happiness and have fun, and in the end they caused a chaotic situation.
Today I'm going to talk about the five nonsense.
It is also to tell you why I have always emphasized the importance of a Chinese country, why I want to be cohesive, and why I want to have a strong country.
Because there is only one complete country, and the people can come together, and in the end it can become a strong country, and no alien race will dare to bully me."
Qin An paused and continued, "I just said that the world must be divided for a long time, and it must be divided for a long time.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, the two periods of the Warring States Period were divided, the Great Qin and the Great Han were united, the Three Kingdoms were divided, and the Jin Dynasty was combined.
After the Jin Dynasty, there was chaos that lasted for more than 100 years, and the history was known as the Wuhu Chaohua.
The reasons for the chaos are many, involving politics, economics, military, ethnic relations, climate change and other aspects.
First of all, talking about politics, I said that the emperor of the Jin Dynasty was not in a proper position, and the emperors were all incompetent people, and even fools.
One year, there was a drought, and the ministers asked the emperor for relief, but the emperor said that there was no food to eat, and meat could be eaten.
You say, 'Is this emperor stupid?'"
The people under the city looked at each other, how did such a fool become the emperor? There is no food, how can there be meat to eat.
Although he didn't hear the answer, Qin An already knew their answer from the expressions of the people.
He continued, "At that time, there was a rebellion of the eight kings in the Jin Dynasty, and the Jin emperors had many emperors of their clansmen.
In the end, there were the eight kings who became more and more powerful, and they disobeyed the court and began to rebel because they also wanted to be emperors.
In the end, the Rebellion of the Eight Kings led to the weakening of the imperial court, the intensification of internal contradictions in the country, and the inability to effectively manage the frontier peoples.
And give the Hu people an opportunity to make trouble. This is for political reasons.
The second reason is that during the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty completely defeated the Xiongnu, and many Hu people began to submit to the Han Dynasty and learn everything about the Han people, especially the culture of the Han people.
In the Jin Dynasty, the Hu people had moved into Guanzhong and the Jing and Wei Ershui basins in large numbers, forming an encirclement of Luoyang, the capital of the Jin Dynasty.
Even if these Hu people have been sinicized to a certain extent, it does not mean that the Han people look up to the Hu people and do not really regard the Hu people as their own.
In the future, the country and each of our Chinese people will recognize the 56 ethnic groups in China as relatives.
Fifty-six ethnic groups, whether they are Han, Manchu, Dai, and even the current Xiongnu, Xianbei and so on, are regarded as their relatives.
The Han people will not treat you as an outsider or even look down on you because you are a Hu person.
But there were times in the Jin Dynasty, not only in the Jin Dynasty, but also in other dynasties, which was a national contradiction.
As long as the Han court is strong, these Hu people will be attached to us and become our little brothers, but once the Han court declines, or even when the Han court is in turmoil.
The Hu people will raise troops to invade our borders, and even two dynasties will be established by the Hu people in the future.
But that's all for later, and I'll talk about it later. What I just said was the national contradiction, that is, the contradiction between the Han and the Hu people.
The third thing I want to say is the military factor, during the Eight Kings Rebellion, the Jin family was divided, the national strength was empty, and the Hu people took the opportunity to raise troops, forming a military threat to the Central Plains.
At that time, the Hu people established one country after another, called the Northern Dynasty.
The fourth reason is that the Hu people don't have enough to eat, and their lives are very difficult, just like you used to be. I call this the economic factor.
That's why I have to develop the economy, only if you have money, you can eat enough, and you have a wife and children, and when life gets better, will you still raise troops?"
The people of the city laughed, they were like this
I never thought of it.
Qin An smiled and said, "Wuhu Chaohua also has a relationship with the weather, the north is relatively cold, and there is a drought, so they take a fancy to the land of the Central Plains, especially the land in the south.
There is also a policy factor, other dynasties have let the Hu people stay in their own territory, and they are not allowed to go to our Han people's territory.
However, the Jin Dynasty allowed the Hu people to go south, so the Hu people raised troops, and the Hu people in the Central Plains also raised troops.
There is also the problem of the scholars, the scholars control most of the power of the imperial court, and when the imperial court is in trouble, these scholars are still thinking about how to protect themselves, and they have never thought about helping the imperial court and helping the people.
Especially during the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, nobles everywhere were thinking about helping that king, and then coming to a dragon's skill, so that their family could soar.
These reasons have created the chaos of the five indiscriminates.
And you must be thinking in your hearts that I only say the reason, but I don't say how the Wuhu Chaohua is chaotic.
All I can say is that the people are living in dire straits, and whatever tragic things you can think of or what you can't imagine will happen.
It's just a common occurrence in those days."
"Hiss~~"
Many of the people in the city couldn't help but gasp. Isn't it miserable enough to eat Yizi, what is miserable?
Even many people remembered those dusty memories for a long time and couldn't help but shed tears.
Qin An ignored the people and continued: "In the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, the Xiongnu, Qian, Xianbei, Di, and Qiang took advantage of the internal strife in the imperial court and the empty treasury, so they went south to make a rebellion, claiming to be kings and emperors in the Central Plains, and established many political regimes - known as the "Five Hu and Sixteen Kingdoms" in history.
In fact, in more than 16 countries, and more importantly, the Hu people, represented by the Qian, began to openly kill Han Chinese, and brazenly massacre Han Chinese.
In just a few decades, the population of the north has plummeted by as much as 6 million.
If it's just a massacre and you think it's cruel, then I'll say something even more cruel.
That's the two-legged sheep.
Do you know what a two-legged sheep is?"
The people under the city looked at each other, "Is the two-legged sheep another breed of sheep?" Why haven't we seen it?
"Two-legged sheep, two-legged sheep, two-legged, could it be ......" A Confucian scholar recited it twice, lowered his head and saw his own two feet, and suddenly showed a look of horror.
Immediately, he shouted at Qin An on the city wall, "Emperor, isn't it worth being us?"
Qin An bowed: "That's right, you guessed right, the two-legged sheep is indeed referring to a person, to be precise, it is a Han woman.
But do you know why they are called two-legged sheep?"
"Please also ask the emperor to make it clear?" Confucian asked.
Qin An sighed and said, "What is a sheep? What do we do with the sheep?"
