The Sui, Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties were one of the most special periods in China's feudal history. They included the prosperous Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms with frequent dynasty changes. At this time, strategy became the protagonist of feudal politics and had a huge impact. However, strategy is just a technique, and it ultimately depends on human nature. Therefore, rather than saying that strategy affects history, it is better to say that human nature shapes history. The relationship between human nature and strategy in "Who Writes History in Three Thousand Years: The Game of Hegemony in the Sui, Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties" was vividly interpreted during this period.
