Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty in Late Ming Dynasty

Comparing the opening cards of Emperor Wen and Chongzhen, Emperor Wen would be crying. As long as the original actors perform at a normal level, it will be a sideways plot. At least Chongzhen's own legitimacy was strong enough and he did not have to worry about his life. Liu Hengjian was trembling with fear when he entered the capital. He was not in charge of the Northern and Southern troops during the palace confinement, and there was no safety guarantee for sleeping or eating. The eviction of the palace not long ago Lie Houcai, the hero of the coup, killed all the descendants of the entrepreneurial brother Liu Bang, Emperor Hui, and wiped out the Lu family, another entrepreneurial partner of Zhu Lu. His arrogance and murderous ferocity could not be compared to those useless civil servants in the late Ming Dynasty? The first test for Emperor Wen, a little transparent puppet who had just been established by lot, was to think about how to live well and not become the third young emperor. If someone disagreed, he would really dare to use the knife. Secondly, can those local pig kings in the late Ming Dynasty compare with the kings of the Kanto vassals who had military supplies and could cast their own money? Moreover, Liu Xiang, Liu Xingju and other Qi kings, who had made the greatest contribution to the purge of Lu Zhong, were dissatisfied and were waiting to raise troops to seize the throne at any time. Liu Bang's youngest son, the Huainan king, who was raised by the Empress Dowager Lu, also had a grudge against his fourth brother. In addition, in the society of the early Han Dynasty, remnants of the Six Kingdoms, marquises, powerful men, and knights were rampant. The central government's control was limited to Guanzhong, and it was also controlled by major families in Guanzhong. How could it be compared with the mature Guan officials in the late Ming Dynasty? Finally, let's talk about foreign aggression. The Huns were something that even Gao Emperor Liu Bang couldn't do anything about. Their confrontation with the Central Plains lasted longer than the founding of the Han Dynasty. Less than ten years had passed since the heyday of Maodun Chanyu. How could their pressure be comparable to that of the Hou Jin Dynasty who had just emerged? What kind of shabby family fortune did Emperor Wen take over in the early Han Dynasty? That's not a matter of civil servants enriching their own pockets, it's a matter of being so poor that they don't have the capital to fight. If you don't believe it, just look at the comparison of the excavated Jiangcun Tomb and the tombs of King Zhongshan and Marquis Haihun in the city. Even if Emperor Wen wanted to be extravagant, he had to have that kind of money. Thinking about the domestic problems, the Huns are already the mildest threat. Looking at the country, there is no ally in the court. Even the three or two kittens brought by Emperor Wen into the capital on behalf of the country can accomplish Wenjing's rule. Chongzhen's starting point should not be too high. Beautiful, these people in the late Ming Dynasty can bully the little baby who is better than the palace wife. Emperor Wen grew up eating sand on the border to fight against the Huns. Fighting with an old Yin like him can experience the dangers of having a good-looking face but difficult things. He is very insidious and cunning to kill people with needles hidden in his skin and soft knives.

Don't tell me, don't tell me, Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty might be able to achieve some success in this position.

In fact, the fiscal revenue at the end of the Ming Dynasty was not low. The 4 million taels a year rumored on the Internet were just the income transferred to Taicang, the Ministry of Household Affairs, but part of it was not all. Not counting the three rates, the fiscal revenue at the end of the Ming Dynasty was around 2kw taels of silver. The three rates added an annual income of almost 1,700,000 taels. Calculated, it was not much different from the fiscal revenue in the Qing Dynasty. The imperial court had no money to rely on because of its poor financial system. In the Ming Dynasty, there was not even a prime minister with a national tax department. Another important reason is that since the Saar Hu, the Qing Dynasty has been sent all the way. Waves of organizations were sent, and waves of people were sent. During this period, the organization's soldiers, equipment, and civilians consumed a huge amount of resources. Then there were the peasant uprisings in the northwest and the chieftain uprisings in the southwest that started in the last year of Wanli. The three-front war was too costly.

The comment section all analyzes the situation of Chongzhen and Emperor Hanwen from the perspective of foreign aggression, court, ministers, and princes. But in fact, Chongzhen was at the end of the dynasty, and Emperor Hanwen was the beginning of the dynasty. The biggest problem that Chongzhen faced was the sharp social contradictions. The people couldn't stand it anymore. If they want to rebel, there must be a fight. Only a thorough change can bring things back to life, that is, if the people do not want to kill all the oppressors from the bottom up, or Chongzhen must make a thorough change from the top down to kill most of the rentier class who are legal in the Ming Dynasty system but oppress the people. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was different. He only needed to deal with his political opponents step by step. Although it was difficult for those heroes and princes, they were specific people. Just find a way to bring them down. As for the country of the Han Dynasty, it was still healthy at that time. Even if it was poor, the people could get by (there were still relatively few rentiers in the upper class, and the bottom class could support themselves).

I feel that for a first-class emperor like Emperor Hanwen, starting from Nanming and then conquering the world again may be easier than reforming.

Emperor Wen of Han may have been awesome at the beginning of the Han Dynasty, but time traveling to the end of the Ming Dynasty might not be feasible. After all, things have changed, and the internal and external situations are completely different.

The bureaucratic environment is different, and there is no advantage at all. Especially the emperors in the early Han Dynasty. In fact, as long as they don't seek death and recuperate, they are wise kings. What is that in the late Ming Dynasty? They are a bunch of old dough sticks that have been cultivated for thousands of years. They have rich experience in fighting for imperial power. There is actually no big difference between Emperor Wen of Han and Chongzhen.

Emperor Wen of Han, I feel like I can't revive Chongzhen's script. Not to mention the changes between the two of them, which were more than 1,600 years apart, the Ming Dynasty and the Han Dynasty had already undergone tremendous changes. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was the king of prosperity. In his era, the Han Dynasty was in ruins and everything was going uphill. Chongzhen was the king of subjugation. His Ming Dynasty was always on the decline, and the Ming Dynasty had too many problems. Natural disasters and man-made disasters will cause the monarch and his ministers to become alienated. However, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty should not be as stubborn as Chongzhen. He should be able to stay away from the river and protect half of the country when he goes south.

This is really just a suggestion, not a scolding. I hope the author can write better. If the author wants to write about Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, he must first understand the Han Dynasty and Emperor Wen of Han, instead of adding some so-called factors of Emperor Wen of Han to Chongzhen and then continue writing... Especially the author evaluates the Han Dynasty from the perspective of Emperor Wen of Han... You can tell at a glance that he may not have even read the original text of Historical Records

Emperor Wen is the one who enjoys the game. With all due respect, I don't think Emperor Wen can solve the situation at the end of the Ming Dynasty. In the situation at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the country had to be fought all over again. First of all, Chen Ping, Zhou Bo and others did not have the conditions to usurp the throne. They and the local princes were in mutual checks and balances, and they only wanted to overthrow Emperor Lu Xuan. If someone really wanted to usurp the throne, who would be the king and who would be his ministers? And what we need to know is, how long has Liu Bang been dead, and how long has it been since the pre-Qin Dynasty! You have destroyed the family of the late emperor and usurped the world of the late emperor. You don't want to be famous anymore? Who will follow you? The rest of the late emperor Will he just sit back and wait for death? Secondly, Chen Ping and Zhou Bo have offended the King of Qi's family by choosing Liu Heng. After the matter was settled, they dared to murder Liu Heng. Once Liu Heng died, wouldn't King Qi's opportunity come? As mentioned before, they have no conditions to usurp the throne. You have chosen Liu Heng to join the King of Qi. How can you do the second one? Moreover, the son of Emperor Hui was killed by you. In order to defeat Lu, the world can accept it. Liu Heng is known to the world as the son of Gao Di. , You still dare to kill? Do you really don't want to usurp the throne? Thirdly, when Chen Ping and Zhou Bo cannot usurp the throne, and they don't even want to usurp the throne, they can only ask for more benefits, fiefdoms, official positions, etc., And these are destined to need Liu Heng. As long as Liu Heng does not kill them, they will not confront Liu Heng. Didn't you see that Liu Heng took over the military power in the palace not long after he took office? If Chen Ping and Zhou Bo really want to support the puppet How could he be allowed to control military power so easily? Liu Heng is powerful, but are Chen Ping and Zhou Bo incompetent? In the final analysis, Chen Ping and Zhou Bo cannot usurp the throne and do not want to usurp the throne. They cannot kill another emperor, because what will they do if the King of Qi comes to power? They can hold on, but they are old! Can their son do it? It is better to choose Liu Heng, who has a reputation for benevolence, and obey him. After Liu Heng came to power and successfully took control of the government, his civil policy was mainly to rest with the people and govern by doing nothing. This policy greatly accelerated the merger of powerful powers. Don't look at the records in the history books that the ropes wearing copper coins were rotten, and the country seemed to be rich and powerful, but in fact when Emperor Jing pacified the Seven Kingdoms, he actually had to borrow money from the powerful to pay for military expenses! In other words, the treasury during Liu Heng's period was purely based on saving money. Being rich is not really rich, it is just that it is more powerful. Let's look at Liu Heng's martial arts... The Huns invaded many times and wanted to make peace, but the Huns did not agree because it was better to rob him. As for the local princes, first of all, Liu Heng had great righteousness and he was already a legitimate emperor. Secondly, Liu Heng's Han strength was higher than that of the princes, and the princes were not of the same mind. Looking at Liu Heng's policy, he allowed local princes to mint coins and other measures to liberalize their interests. How could the local princes rebel against him? These policies made it difficult for the princes to rebel, but this policy laid a trap for his son Emperor Jing. Above, Liu Heng is indeed capable, but I don't think he can solve the situation in the late Ming Dynasty. I don't think he can solve it if it were Taizong and Mingzu. There is really no one available. The officials in the DPRK and the subordinates basically have collusion of interests. It is not as easy as re-fighting the country.

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was not good at it. In the environment of the late Ming Dynasty, let alone Li Shimin and Zhu Yuanzhang of the Han Dynasty. There are only two points to break the situation. One is large-scale killing. Without people, the natural land annexation situation will be broken. The difficulty is that the middle and lower classes will resist on a large scale. What if Li Shimin is on the road to death? The second is the large-scale introduction of crops such as sweet potatoes. Don't underestimate this stuff, it will be enough to extend the life of the late Ming Dynasty for several decades. Therefore, I have always believed that time-travelers are more likely to solve the problems of the late Ming Dynasty than the founding monarchs of the past dynasties. Because all a strong monarch can do is redistribute. But at the end of the Ming Dynasty, the difficulty of replenishing the pot was hellish. Only open source is the way out. First, crops such as sweet potatoes directly increase food production, and the land can support more people. The second is the large-scale colonial transfer to Southeast Asia.

It seems that even Emperor Wen of Han could not save the Ming Dynasty in his later years🙂

In the situation at the end of the Ming Dynasty, you could only let heroes like Han Gao, Tang Zong, Song Zu and Mingzu overthrow the past. What's the use of letting Han Wen, a conservative king, to pass on his soul to the ceiling? The Chinese in history could only barely defend the Xiongnu, and they did not show much military ability or strategic vision. If you let his soul pass through the late Ming Dynasty, I can't think of any effect other than extending the life of the Ming Dynasty for ten more years.

The problem at the end of the Ming Dynasty was that the frontier army could not win against Hou Jin. No matter how good the development was, the only thing that could be done was to take back more when people came to plunder. After Saerhu, Ming didn't dare to fight in the field. He couldn't annihilate the main force of Hou Jin. Huang Taiji came on the opposite side, and Li Zicheng inside, there was no chance no matter how he looked at it.

There is only one word to describe the plot of this novel: "soft". It is supple, smooth, and smooth. The plot makes readers feel comfortable. Historical texts of a similar era are like a wilderness road, and each incident is a sharp rock on the long road of the traveler. From time to time, the protagonists of the journey will be stung, choked, and blood pressure will drop. The protagonists need to expend wisdom and courage, stop and smash them with a big hammer, and then continue to trek on the journey. This book is a long river, and the protagonist is a river. When encountering stones blocking the road, sometimes it goes around, sometimes overflows, and sometimes it breaks away directly. The flow keeps flowing, and all the troubles are solved naturally.

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty had to go through Wanli in the Ming Dynasty to turn the tide, and Chongzhen was too late. It was possible for Chongzhen to wear Xiu'er who could conquer the world and rule the world.

Why do you always think that sending an awesome person to an irreversible situation can save it? Overall, I feel like everyone is the same, always so naive. In hindsight, you might as well do it yourself. 🙂

Do you want to consider how far away Emperor Wen of Han was from Liu Bang, and how far away Chongzhen was from Zhu Yuanzhang? Can the logic and gameplay in the early dynasty and the end of the dynasty be the same? No one in Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty or Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty said that they perished because of their incompetence, right? If you put Emperor Han Wen in the Ling Emperor's period, he would be able to move the powerful garrison tomb? The powerful people in the early Western Han Dynasty and the aristocratic families in the late Eastern Han Dynasty were completely different species. Times create heroes. Without the conditions of that period, heroes may not be able to become popular. Many people are too bookish.

Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty was a traditional male-female emperor of the Han Dynasty, right?

It seems that he has entered the palace. There has been no update for so long.
