The secret is revealed!Why did Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty use the strategy of "Yang Servant Moving the Pass", and the strategic wisdom behind the eastward migration of Hangu Guan**!
Body].
In 2014, the road network of the "Silk Road" was successfully inscribed on the World Heritage List, and the Hanhan Valley Pass in Xin'an County, Luoyang, was also listed as the "First Pass of the Silk Road" and became a world cultural heritage. This pass is different from the Hangu Pass that we are familiar with Meng Weijun experienced. Originally, Hanguguan was divided into two periods, the Qin Dynasty and the Han Dynasty, which were located in Lingbao City of Sanmenxia City and Xin'an County of Luoyang, respectively, separated by more than 100 kilometers.
The eastward movement of Hangu Pass seems a little unbelievable, how can a well-located Hangu Pass be displaced so far?This involves an interesting allusion, "Yang Servant Moves Customs". In the Tang Dynasty, poets such as Liu Yuxi and Li Shangyin used it as a poem, and in the wild historical miscellaneous, the story became a joke, and the protagonist Yang Fu was portrayed as a reckless man who "had a lot of money and many people were stupid".
Yang Fu, as the general of Lou Chuan, after pacifying Minyue and Nanyue, he was made a marquis, but he could only be named a marquis outside the Guan. In terms of political status, the Kwantung people were lower than the Guanzhong people, and in the early Han Dynasty, there was even a discriminatory policy that the Kwantung people were not allowed to enter the palace or serve as guards. Yang Fu felt aggrieved and came up with a whimsical idea, requesting that Hangu be moved east and his hometown should be included in Guanzhong in order to change his political status. This whimsical idea was accepted by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, so the "matter of moving the customs" occurred.
However, the record of the "Hanshu Wudi Ji" is quite simple, with only a few words "three winters, migrating to the valley about Xin'an", and there is no specific reason. In contrast, Ying Shao, who is also from the Eastern Han Dynasty, gave a more detailed explanation in the commentary: "Yang Fushu, the general of the Shilou boat, has made great contributions, and he is ashamed to be a foreigner, and he writes to beg for Dongguan, and gives him his family wealth." Emperor Wu also had a broad meaning, so he migrated to Xin'an and went to Hongnong for 300 miles. As a result, this magical legend of "Yang Servant Moving Pass" became an "image project" triggered by personal selfishness, and he not only paid out of his own pocket, but also mobilized more than 700 people in his family to rebuild a Hangu Pass in the east of Xin'an County.
For this story, people can't help but have some questions other than laughing from the heart. Although Yang Fu has made outstanding achievements, his request alone can actually promote the eastward movement of a Hangu Pass, what is happening behind this?
"Meritorious" or "moved" first
Looking back on Yang Fu's life, most of his promotions and exploits in his political career occurred after the third year of the Yuan Dynasty (114 BC) moved eastward to Hangu Pass. Prior to this, although he had served as the Imperial Historian and the Lord Commander, he had not achieved particularly significant achievements in terms of merit and status. Yuan Ding's eastward move to Hangu Pass in the third year seemed to be a turning point in his career, after which he was quickly appointed as the general of Lou Chuan, from an ordinary ** to a general who led the troops to fight.
In the battle of the South Vietnamese rebellion, the sailors led by Yang Fu performed well and conquered Panyu, thus being named the Marquis of Liang. However, he later performed mediocre in the war against Korea, and even almost lost his head afterwards. Therefore, it is worth pondering whether Yang Fu's military exploits are enough to make Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty move east to a Hangu Pass for his selfish desires alone.
Bigger and stronger "Daguanzhong".
Geographically, the old Hangu Pass is located between Luoyang and Chang'an, and is a natural barrier in the pass. After the threat of the rising princely in the Kanto region gradually weakened, the military value of the old Hanya Pass gradually declined. Relatively speaking, Xinhangu Pass is still the key point of east-west transportation, maintaining the strategic position of the pass. However, this eastward move was not due to military considerations, but why Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty made such a major adjustment in regional policy and defense strategy
In the early years of the Western Han Dynasty, in order to ensure the absolute security of the regime, ** adopted a policy of strictly restricting the exchange of people between Guanzhong and other regions, and even stipulated that entering Guanzhong must hold the "Chuan" issued by the government as a pass certificate. These policies were aimed at the forces of the Kwantung princes and kings in order to guard against their threat to ***. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, with the development of the war against the Xiongnu, the military reform made the cavalry gradually become the main force, the chariots were gradually eliminated, and the barrier role of Hangu Pass in the pass was weakened.
The power of the location of the old Hangu Pass gradually declined, while the geographical location of the new Hangu Pass was more in line with the needs of the current situation. Therefore, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's decision to move eastward was more out of response to geopolitical changes and the need to rearrange the transportation arteries. In this process, Yang Fu's proposal to "move the customs" may only be one of the implementation details, rather than the leading factor.
Hanya Kanto Shifts: Behind the Wisdom.
In this strategic change of Hangu Guan's eastward shift, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty showed a keen insight into geopolitics and military strategy. Compared with the traditional military defense line, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty paid more attention to the adjustment of the overall strategy to adapt to the development of the current situation. The decision to move eastward to Hanguguan this time not only guaranteed the absolute security of the ** regime, but also conformed to changes in military technology and geopolitics.
In general, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's eastward move to the Hangu Pass was not out of personal selfishness, but also a precise response to the current situation and military situation. Behind this wisdom is a deep understanding of geopolitics and military strategy, as well as a far-sighted vision for the long-term development of the country.
The article profoundly reveals the wisdom and considerations behind Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's strategy of moving eastward to Hanguguan. This historical event not only involved geopolitical changes, but also involved Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's deep understanding of the country's long-term development and military strategy.
First of all, the article explains in detail the geographical location of the old and new Hangu Pass and the different positions of the two in the current situation. Because of its geographical location, the old Hangu Pass was once the throat between Guanzhong and Kanto, and was an important place to hold the Western Han Dynasty. However, as time passed, the Kwantung threat gradually weakened, and Shinkakuya Pass was more in line with the needs of the military strategy of the time. This geopolitical change became the basis for the decision to move eastward to Hanyaguan.
Second, the paper provides an in-depth analysis of the motivations behind the strategic adjustment adopted by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The author points out that the eastward move to Hangu Pass was not simply for the personal desires of Yang Fu, but an accurate response to the current situation by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. This paper interprets the strategic decision of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty from multiple perspectives, such as the transformation of military technology, the uniqueness of the topography of Guanzhong, and the weakening of the power of the Kwantung princes. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty not only paid attention to the military level, but also paid more attention to the adjustment of the overall strategy to adapt to the military situation and geopolitical pattern at that time.
In addition, the article provides an in-depth analysis of the role of Yang Fu in this historical event. Yang Fu's proposal to "move the customs" was seen as an "image project" to improve his political status. However, the article cleverly points out that this proposal ultimately became an implementation detail rather than a dominant factor. Yang Fu's selfish desire was not to dominate the strategic adjustment of the entire eastward move to Hangu Pass, but a small detail under the wise decision of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
Finally, the article gives high praise to the strategic decision of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. He emphasized his deep understanding of geopolitics and military strategy and his farsightedness for the long-term development of the country. This historical event was seen as an accurate response to the current situation and the military situation, demonstrating the ingenuity and determination of a brilliant monarch.
