Introduction: In the vast river of history, the unpredictable storms of that year slowly turned into clouds and clouds, leaving posterity with most of the words in historical documents. Most historians study the Tang and Song dynasties, and there are many historical documents in the Ming and Qing dynasties, but there are very few people who study the history of the Yuan Dynasty. As a dynasty ruled by ethnic minorities, the status of the Han people was extremely low, and Genghis Khan's great achievements in opening up the territory and expanding the territory once made all countries in the world tremble for it, so what kind of crushing advantage did Zhu Yuanzhang use to destroy the Yuan Dynasty?
Establish a dynasty
The Song Dynasty has always been a dynasty that emphasizes literature over military force, and the country mostly serves as civilian officials and emphasizes the system of etiquette and law. It can be seen from the surviving Tang poems and Song poems that cultural development is very prosperous. The Song Dynasty seemed to give people a feeling of weakness, and the hand could not lift the shoulder and could not resist.
In the later period, the border that had been restless gradually jumped towards the Central Plains. Here we have to mention the figure who laid the foundation for the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, Genghis Khan. Genghis Khan's expansion idea is very clear, first to unify the Mongol tribes, and then at the same time as the population is increasing, Genghis Khan gradually expands outward.
It so happened that the Jews, in their rebellion against the Roman Empire, were devastated and helped to escape and fled to the Mongol territory. Genghis Khan brought the Jews back to Mongol administration in order to strengthen his tribe. With the help of these people, not only did Genghis Khan expand his rule, but his son Kublai Khan successfully established the Yuan Dynasty.
Nation-building to annihilation
During the Yuan Dynasty, the status of the Han people was low, anyone could be bullied, but the Han people could not fight back, if the Han people resisted, then in the face, it would be an intensified torture, and even the status of the Semu people from all countries who came to the dynasty was higher than that of the Han people. What country is the population of the Semu people? In fact, the colored people generally refer to foreigners, that is, human beings with colored pupils, including Jews in the period.
Then Kublai Khan set this very outrageous rule is tantamount to provoking the people to revolt, and finally around a hundred years, the Yuan Dynasty is no longer the prosperity of the Genghis Khan period, nor the growth of the Kublai Khan period, Zhu Yuanzhang rose up and overthrew the rule of the Yuan Dynasty.
In this way, the political system of the Yuan Dynasty against the Han people was very difficult to accept, until the tombs of the Yuan Dynasty were unearthed in Anhui, and the world completely changed its previous cognition.
The truth of the excavation of the tomb emerges
The Hu Song inscription records the deeds of the Semu people, burning and looting, insulting women, and the Han people absolutely do not dare to resist. As the canonical history of Jing County, Hu Song saw the people shrinking and did not dare to resist, and his heart was full of grief.
Such a bad behavior can not be ignored, so Hu Song openly negotiated with the People of Color, in disguise to warn them not to do wrong, if the People of Colored Obey the Etiquette Law of the Yuan Dynasty in a proper manner, then they will be treated with due courtesy, but if the People of Coloration still do things recklessly, then the Etiquette of the Yuan Dynasty is not used for decoration.
With Hu Song standing out for the people, the people of Semu did not dare to do anything special anymore. When the late Yuan Dynasty was close to extinction, the Han Chinese Zhu Yuanzhang overthrew Mongol rule in one fell swoop and established the Ming Dynasty.
The Ming Dynasty overthrew the rule of the Yuan Dynasty that was unfavorable to the Han People, rectified the actions of the Semu people in the Central Plains, and forbade the Semu people to go their own way, and all matters must be carried out in accordance with the rules of the Yuan Dynasty, otherwise they will be punished and confiscated as slaves.
After a hundred years of oppression, the Han people finally regained their freedom, which is inseparable from the credit of Zhu Yuanzhang and Hu Song. The civilization of the Ming Dynasty also made this dynasty prosperous for many years, standing on top of the world.
