#汉武帝半生穷兵黩武, why can it be compared to Qin Shi Huang? #
According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 400 emperors in Chinese history, of course, including some people who are indiscriminately called emperors and posthumous titles, but there are naturally many people of great talent, among these more than four hundred people, The Han Wudi Liu Che is one of the best in both Wenzhi and Wugong, and is a male lord who can be compared with Emperor Qin Shi Huang, Tang Taizong and other emperors.
Some people also have to ask, Emperor Wu of Han was poor in the army for half his life, and when he was old, he also issued the "Wheel Of The Wheel and The Crime of Self-Commandment", how did he become a generation of male lords?
Emperor
In fact, this problem should be viewed dialectically, that is, from the external environment and internal environment of the Han Dynasty at that time.
After the recuperation of the two generations of emperors of Han Wendi and Han Jingdi, the Han Empire has basically recovered to the level of the last years of the Qin Dynasty, the economy and population have developed greatly, at this time the successor to the Han Wudi Emperor Liu Che is not without opponents, in the country his opponents are the princes in the territory and the people seeking to ascend, although the princes have weakened part of the "Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms", but after all, it is still a factor of instability in the territory of the Han Dynasty, followed by decades of peaceful development, the rising channel solidified, Private talents cannot be used by the government and cause certain hidden dangers.

For the former, Emperor Wu of han adopted the "Tui En Order" offered by the main father, which stipulated that after the death of the princes, in addition to the eldest son of the prince to inherit the throne, other sons could also divide part of the kingdom and become the princes, ruled by the county sheriff, which was the most famous Yang plot in Chinese history, and except for the princes and their eldest sons who were damaged, they all profited, and laid the foundation for the great unification of the imperial power in the territory.
Lord Father
For the latter, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty adopted Dong Zhongshu's political proposition of "pushing the Ming Kong clan and suppressing the hundred families", and after the exclusive respect of Confucianism, the officials were mainly from Confucianism, and Confucianism gradually developed, becoming the orthodox idea of ruling the people for the next two thousand years, which had a far-reaching impact on the political history of later generations.
The biggest threat outside the Han Dynasty came from the Rising Xiongnu tribes on the steppe, before the establishment of the Han Empire, the Xiongnu tribes had already laid a great name on the grassland, and when the Han Dynasty was first established, Liu Bang was besieged by the Xiongnu's Mao Dundan in Baishan Mountain, and was almost captured, and later had to escape with women and pro-Xiongnu.
Hun cavalry
With the development of the Han Empire, there were more and more clashes with the Xiongnu, and Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty believed that the capital Chang'an would defend the Western Regions, and if he wanted to win the Western Regions, he would have to fight with the Xiongnu to the death, so he began to send Zhang Qian to the Western Regions, hoping to contact the western regions oppressed by the Xiongnu to attack the Xiongnu together.
Originally, this move should be very useful for long-distance and close-range attacks, but the strength of the countries in the Western Regions was too poor to fight with the Xiongnu at all, and Emperor Wudi of Han had to find a way to do it himself, he began to buy famous horses to train cavalry, and finally did not hesitate to import Dawan Khan blood BMW from Wusun thousands of miles away, and trained such imperial double-bi famous generals as Wei Qing and Huo Toyi, launched one campaign after another to maim and injure the Xiongnu, and opened up the four counties of Hexi, Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan, and Dunhuang, laying the foundation for the establishment of the Western Regions Capital Protectorate during the reign of Emperor Xuan of Han.

Moreover, the initiatives of Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty to create the era of the first year and the return of salt and iron to the state camp have profoundly affected the course of Chinese history, so Liu Che, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty, is fully qualified to be called the First Emperor of the Ages together with Qin Shi Huang Yin Zheng and others, occupying the first echelon of emperors in Chinese history.
