From the Western Han Dynasty to the Eastern Han Dynasty, in the whole process of historical alternation, a very important figure appeared, of course, the praise and depreciation of him in later generations were inconsistent, but no matter how the historical development changed.
His decisive influence on the entire change of dynasties is also indelible, so it is said that for him personally, whether it is merit or failure.
Different historians and different people have different views on him, so today we will talk about Wang Mang's past and present lives.
First of all, he was born in 45 BC and died in 23 AD, he was during the Western Han Dynasty, and the courtiers were also one of the relatives who belonged to the internal and foreign relatives, and were the founders of the new dynasty in Chinese history.
It is the park, reigned from 8 to 23 AD, it is a rare external qi, an important figure of the Wang family, his personal character characteristics, history is very humble to his positioning, and the courtesy corporal, throughout the dynasty, the audience has their own very good reputation.
And throughout the last years of the Western Han Dynasty, due to various planned social contradictions, as well as various changing dynastic regimes and various ethnic struggles, it was made the only choice to save the whole crisis situation.
Therefore, there are always people who have a very high evaluation of him, in December of 8 AD, he replaced the entire Han Dynasty, established a new dynasty, and announced the implementation of the New Deal, which is the famous Wang Mang reform in history.
First of all, he wants to restore the well field system to solve the entire land problem and realize the historical reality that the whole world cannot be a royal land.
He also stipulated that all land was not allowed to be bought and sold by anyone, so that all slaves and slaves must be private and not allowed to be bought and sold, and then he implemented the reform of the official system and levied commercial taxes.
Salt and iron and wine and coinage were operated by the Government and it vigorously promoted the reform of the monetary system and reformed the entire central apparatus.
The county system and the division of counties and counties have been adjusted, the official names of some places and the names of geographical locations have been changed, and the generals of ethnic minorities and their titles have been changed.
However, these measures of his are also unreasonable, first of all, he unrealistically abolished the five-baht coin, and blindly carried out various reforms of the monetary system, which seriously weakened the circulation of the entire currency and the credibility of the currency.
And it made almost the financial economy paralyzed, and he vigorously weakened the economic strength of some of the rich families, making the entire monetary system very complex and chaotic, and the private trade was not smooth.
Prices are also very volatile, and the problem is that the function of the coin is greatly reduced, but the price is getting higher and higher, in fact, exploiting more people's wealth.
Moreover, although the reform of the well field system he implemented could curb land annexation to a certain extent and bring about a crisis in the entire korean situation, it seriously damaged the interests of some powerful landers.
As a result, some powerful and wealthy people of the family began to dislike the often comrades, and then he banned the sale of slaves and slaves, and such measures did not have the support of the people.
So there are countless crimes and countless crimes because people are secretly buying and selling, and then article 4 is that in order to curb the excessive exploitation of the peasants by the merchants, he controls usury, controls prices, and improves the finances, which is also an economic measure in a more beneficial direction for the people's livelihood.
However, from the perspective of the entire system reform, this person often does not change his bones, and he believes that all reforms must be viewed from a historical perspective, following the reform tools and reform methods created before.
But there is no reform according to its own actual situation, and there is no order for large-scale chaotic reform, which is also an important reason for the failure of the regime, so in the end.
Often overthrown again by peasant uprisings in just a few years, it also heralded the rise of a new regime and the imminent arrival of a powerful Eastern Han Dynasty.
