Speaking of the Ming Dynasty, people will always be crowned with a "lie" character, and the word "lie" has a straight, noble meaning, in order to express praise and praise for the Ming Dynasty.
As the last Han Dynasty in China's history, the Ming Dynasty was established in 1368 by Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Emperor; by 1644, Li Zicheng had attacked Beijing and the Chongzhen Emperor had hanged himself, with a calendar of 276 years and 16 emperors.
At the beginning of the ming emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, although he rose up in accordance with Guo Zixing, he was able to become the ultimate victor, relying on the selection of talents and ability, the appointment of Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Liu Bowen and others, that is, the integrity of the people, to win the hearts of the people, he did not like Zhang Shicheng, in order to temporarily Gou An had a move to lower the Yuan, it is also since he began, the Han nation changed the southern Song Dynasty in the last years of the land cutting, title of subject and other shameless acts, it can be said that in rebuilding national self-confidence Zhu Yuanzhang's actions have a cardiotonic effect.
He also went on eight Northern Expeditions during the Hongwu Dynasty, and under the attack of Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, Feng Sheng, Lan Yu and other generals, he recovered the capital of Yuan Dadu (present-day Beijing); surrendered Naha out and recaptured the northeast; defeated Wang Baobao and restored the northwest; and in the Battle of Yu'erhai in 1385, Blue Jade nearly destroyed the Northern Yuan royal family of the Golden Family.
As a successor, after Zhu Di seized the throne at the Battle of Jingnan, he did not hesitate to expand his territory and regain national self-confidence. During his term of office, he destroyed Annam and changed it to the central government; in the northeast, he set up the Nuer Gandu Division, which governed the vast Heilongjiang and Ussuri River basins; in the northern region, he took the initiative to attack, and successively went north to Wala, Tatarstan, and Wuliangha five times.
And in Zhu Di's second imperial conquest of the desert, after the victory of the class, he was even more arrogant and arrogant under the edict: "I am the honor of the national power, beyond the ancient times, and its driving of the Northern Qixi Fan South Island Western Ocean Zhuyi, no Han peace, no Tang alliance, no Song Na Nian thin coin, nor brotherly enemy country gifts." ”
This is not only Zhu Di's boasting, but also a true portrayal of the Ming Dynasty, or the origin of the phrase "no peace, no indemnity, no land cut, the son of heaven guarding the gate of the country, and the death of the king".
As a product of the exchange of political interests between the rulers of the ancient Central Plains Dynasty and the surrounding ethnic minority regimes, heqin has always existed in a long historical period. Even if the Han Dynasty had such a heroic and ambitious generation of heroes as Emperor Wu of Han, who could appoint Wei Qing and Huo to fight the Xiongnu Mo nan without a royal court, and even more to solve the threat of the Xiongnu during the time of Emperor Xuan of Han, at the beginning of the founding of the country, since Liu Bang, the ancestor of Han Gao, was besieged by the Xiongnu Morton in Baideng, the Han Dynasty was weak and had to exchange a pro-peace policy and exchange women for Gou An, while none of the 16 emperors of the Ming Dynasty used this kind of reliance on women and bowed their knees in exchange for Gou An.
As for the tang alliance, in the Tang Dynasty, there were Li Shimin, Wu Zetian and other Ming emperors and holy lords, who created the rule of Zhenguan and the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, and for a time the sea was salty. However, with the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty fell into internal and external troubles, and its relations with the surrounding countries also changed from the relationship between the suzerainty and the vassal states to the alliance relationship, as evidenced by the heterogeneity of the relationship with Nanzhao and Tubo, and even the act of borrowing troops from Nanzhao and Tubo to attack the capital. However, Daming changed the previous system and always chose not to form an alliance.
The thin coin of Song Zhina is well known in history and is even more disgusting. It is true that the Song Dynasty had a developed economy and culture, but in the face of foreign invasion, it seemed weak and vulnerable. The alliance with Liao and the peace talks with Jin Cheng Shaoxing were even more hesitating to kill the famous general Yue Fei, and how could it be true peace in exchange for bowing down to his subjects and paying the old coins.
Of course, what we want to say is that as a feudal autocratic dynasty, the Ming Dynasty also has many drawbacks like many dynasties, and it will also lead to the increasingly heavy life of the lower classes and the increasing number of displaced people because of land annexation, and it will also be full of contradictions because of rampant corruption, but compared with these many dynasties, especially the Qing Dynasty as a successor, when Empress Dowager Cixi "measures the material strength of China and the joy of the country" and the Chongzhen Emperor faces the national difficulties, "let the thieves split the corpse, do not hurt the people." ''Between the already high and low judgments. And the holy will left by Zhu Di more than 600 years ago also allows us to witness the wind and bones of the Ming Dynasty.
