There are constant wars in the world, but there cannot be only wars in the world.
War is only a means, not a goal and a result.
And if war cannot achieve their goals and results, it is not impossible to use another method.
Great Wu Dynasty!
There is only a fraction of the Seventeen Paths left. Such a result is already a miserable ending.
The Dawu Dynasty and the Dawu Dynasty have become a laughing stock in the world. Although several other dynasties continued to fight, at least they did not return the territory that their ancestors worked hard to gain to foreign hands.
To be honest, the Third Northwest Road of Dawu Dynasty, Chengjiang Road of Dawu Dynasty, Yanbei Road, Shanyin Road of Da Cang Dynasty, as well as some places of Da Xia Dynasty and some places of Da Chu Dynasty, these places have been developed for many years. It may not have belonged to the Central Plains Dynasty before, but was snatched step by step by the people of the Central Plains from the Seyi during the Dawu Emperor's Dynasty or even before the Dawu Emperor's Dynasty.
It was not until the seven dynasties went through a series of wars in the early stage, especially when the seven dynasties joined forces to overthrow the dynasty established by Beidi, that the current situation was finally finalized.
Even if we push back a few thousand years from the Dawu Dynasty, the earliest slave society period or even the primitive society period, the early ancestors of the Central Plains Dynasty were actually only in the Wei Dynasty and the Daqian Dynasty. Activities and other places have been expanded step by step.
The place that the ancestors shed their blood to conquer was lost one after another by the younger generations. How could it not become a laughing stock?
The Wu Dynasty was not without loyal ministers. The old Prime Minister Fei Zhong worked hard for the Wu Dynasty and eventually died of exhaustion in front of the documents. Bao Xingye and Xie Sizhi tried hard to remonstrate with him several times, but they ended up being exiled thousands of miles away and resigned and returned home.
Although Xie Sizhi said he was resigning and returning to his hometown, he was only in his 30s and in his prime. How could he resign and return to his hometown at this time? He was obviously fired!
This is also because the Xie family is the top wealthy family in the Wu Dynasty. Unless a wealthy family of this level commits a fundamental problem, even the emperor will not kill him if he wants. Even some fundamental issues can eliminate some people, but it is impossible to directly wipe out the entire family.
It is not impossible for such a top wealthy family to be destroyed, but the turmoil involved is too great, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Just like the top wealthy families in the Great Cang Dynasty, you want to kill the nine clans of others, but once you want to kill the nine clans, no one is related to each other by marriage, and even the royal family is related to everyone.
Kill one of the four generals' mansions. Do the soldiers and horses in the four generals' mansions live for a living? Even if it is destroyed, how much loss will the dynasty itself suffer?
Kill one of the four great imperial merchants, and the economy of your entire dynasty will be in turmoil, and the economy of some areas will even collapse!
To punish one of the six great families, I don’t know how many officials in the dynasty would be dismissed from office or even start a rebellion. This would cause even greater social unrest!
Therefore, it doesn't matter if you move a few people from these top wealthy families, or even a few groups of people, as long as these people deserve what they deserve! But if you want to directly destroy someone's entire family, once you are forced to fight for your life, no one will be able to please you.
Just like those aristocratic families in ancient China, when they were at their peak, even the imperial power was unable to do anything to them. This is why it is said that there are no thousand-year dynasties, but there are thousand-year aristocratic families.
Bao Xingye was admonishing, and Xie Sizhi was almost pointing at the emperor's head and scolding him, but the comparison of the results between the two people can also tell how they were born.
The Wu Dynasty not only had loyal ministers, but also strong generals!
Isn’t Wu Baiqi strong?
Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhang Shicheng, Han Chen, Gu Yuan, Wang Gaizhi and other anti-kings of the Wu Dynasty, who had not suffered defeat at his hands? Didn't people like Liu Bei and Chi You suffer defeats at the hands of Wu Baiqi?
Aren’t Ye Changqing, Xue Mingyang, and Gong Qianzhu strong?
Although the Wu Dynasty is surrounded by enemies, these three are the pillars of the country! Even if Chi You didn't break through, if he met these three people alone, he would probably have to take a detour!
Before Chi You broke through, he could only dare to confront Gong Qianzhu! Of course, Gong Qianzhu would not give Chi You a chance to get close. If Chi You couldn't get close, Chi You would not just simply take a detour, but he would have to hide as far away as possible!
Being targeted by Gong Qianzhu is more dangerous than being targeted by the remaining two!
In the past, two of the 18th Route rebels had their heads blown off by Gong Qianzhu, not to mention that after the 18th Route rebelled against the King, Sun Jian was shot dead. As for the so-called smoke and dust of Route 64 in the early days, grass was growing on the graves by this time.
Among the prince-level figures, who in the world can achieve more abundant gains than Gong Qianzhu?
The Dawu Dynasty had loyal ministers and strong generals, but it could not stand up to its cowardly kings and sycophantic ministers.
As for saying that a dynasty that has been passed down for hundreds of years or a family should not have some stupid heir, isn't this a joke? No matter how elite the education system is, who can guarantee that all the heirs will be wise? Moreover, can the education system alone determine who will be in that position? Being able to climb to that position is influenced by various external factors!
In ancient China, let’s not talk about the short-lived dynasties such as the Qin Dynasty and the Sui Dynasty, but also the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties further away, and the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing dynasties later on, wouldn’t everyone still inherit it for hundreds of years?
Is the education system of ancient Chinese emperors bad? Isn’t it too late for future generations to show off their foolish kings? No matter how good the education is, how can there be less fish slipping through the net?
In addition to the faint-hearted king, there is also a type of tyrant, which may not be something that can be reversed through education!
In short, the one from the Wu Dynasty is full of tricks!
Although it is not entirely his fault, and there are also historical factors that have been settling down, after he came to power, he at least acted as a catalyst, which allowed the Wu Dynasty to rebel against thieves everywhere, and suppressed one group after another. As for the uprising armies from all parties now, they have developed to such an extent.
Before this, the old prime minister Fei Zhongnai was the emperor's master for two generations. When he was alive, he was still able to suppress the emperor! But when the old prime minister died of exhaustion, the emperor could completely let go!
The few loyal and capable ministers such as Bao Xingye and Xie Sizhi were helpless, disappointed or forced to leave the court one after another. Today's Great Wu Chaotang is either a treacherous person or someone who lives a mediocre life.
And this emperor was really not afraid of death. After attacking the courtiers in the court, he actually started attacking the general group again.
Moreover, this move was directed at Wu Baiqi, the pillar of the country.
