The Qing Dynasty, the last feudal dynasty in the history of our country, ruled the world for 276 years, since Huang Taiji was called emperor in 1636, the name of the country was changed to Qing, and the Central Plains soon fell into the hands of the Manchurians.
Prior to the establishment of the Qing Dynasty, the Han Chinese had experienced periods of domination by ethnic minorities, both during the Northern and Southern DynastiesUnder the rule of the Yuan Dynasty established by the Mongols, the Han people were in a low position and were bullied by foreigners, so all kinds of revolts are constantly fighting.
But why did the Jurchens rise again in the Qing Dynasty and rule the whole country, but the 300 million Han people did not have the previous large-scale uprising?
After the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, there were only about 3 million banner people, and if the Han people wanted to revolt, it was impossible to defeat the Manchus. But apart from a few small, self-serving anti-Qing and Ming restoration activities, the Han Chinese did not rebel against the Manchu court.
For 276 years, the Han people got along more and more harmoniously with the Manchus, and sincerely submitted to the Manchu emperors, and theyThere are four reasons not to resist
The Jurchens, originally a nomadic people, grew up in the northeast region where the natural conditions were not very good, and were good at riding and archery kung fu since childhood, and were physically strong.
And the Han people have been taught to read more sages since they were young, and the gentleman does not use his mouth. The Han people knew how to read and read, but they were defeated by the Manchus in the war.
This is not the first time that the Jurchens have invaded the territory of the Han people, and the Jin people invaded in the Song Dynasty, and the Northern Song Dynasty perished, leaving a stench for thousands of yearsShame on Jingkang
Although the Southern Song Dynasty took revenge, it could rely on the strength of the Mongols, and if there was no external help, even if Yue Fei was a famous anti-gold general, he might not be able to achieve the final victory.
When Nurhachi attacked the Ming Dynasty, the Han people were already weak. Emperor Chongzhen couldn't defeat Huang Taiji, and Li Zicheng's hundreds of thousands of Dashun troops couldn't defeat Huang Taiji and Dolgon.
After the fall of the Ming Dynasty,The Han people, who had just experienced the double attack of external and internal troubles, were not capable of fighting the Qing army againThe people desperately need a stable environment to recuperate, so they will not fight again.
After the Qing army entered the customs,The regent Dolgon did not embarrass the Han people, and Emperor Shunzhi reduced taxes many times during his reign to benefit the people
After Emperor Kangxi succeeded to the throne, he continued the policy of reducing taxes and taxesDaxing water conservancy and other national infrastructure projects, the people have a stable life, can eat and clothe warm, regardless of who sits on the throne of the Forbidden City.
ManchuThe Eight Banners system includes the Han military flag, a large part of the Han people have been improved and profitable, and they will not destroy their hard-won power and wealth with their own hands.
In addition, the Manchu and Han can intermarry, and the two ethnic groups have married several times, and they have become more and more integrated. Moreover, the Manchu royal family and nobles took the lead in marrying Han Chinese women.
Although Han women can't be queens, they can still rise to a high position in the palace。As soon as the precedent was set, everyone was looking forward to climbing the high branches of the royal family, and it was too late to support it, who still had the heart to oppose the rule of the Manchus?
Although the Jurchens were originally more vulgar, butThey have been learning about Han Chinese culture, even if it is for the sake of mastering Yi's long skills to control Yi, at least they sincerely accept Han culture. On the other hand, in the Yuan Dynasty, there were few emperors who were willing to sinicize.
The Manchu royal family had to learn Han cultureUnder the leadership of the royal family, the Mongols also followed the sinicization in order to tie up with the royal family。To a certain extent, the Manchus can be regarded as heroes who promoted Han culture.
The highest way to occupy a country is to use its own cultureAssimilation of nativesAlthough Manren is operating in reverse, this move is also a good policy. BecauseWhile they integrated themselves into the Han people, they also won the hearts of the Han people.
And,After the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, they directly inherited the Ming system and did not change the customs of the Han people, with the original magic to continue to rule the Han people,Let the Han people really feel the recognition of the Manchurians, which naturally reduced the excuse for the Han people to resist.
During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, under the state established by the Hu people, the Han people had almost no status, and during the Yuan Dynasty, the Han people were suppressed everywhere if they wanted to make a difference in politics.
But here it isIn the Qing Dynasty, the emperor used the imperial examination to select the imperial court fairly, and the Han people and Manchus could participate in politics and discuss politics alike, the ownership mentality has not been lost, so who wants to see their accumulated achievements overthrown?
The Manchus are very intelligent, and the number of Han people is much larger than that of Manchus, so it is more appropriate to use Han people to govern Han land. As long as the power is concentrated in the hands of the emperor, the Han people will not be able to set off the storm. Moreover,The Han people are good at reading and talented, and they are used to assist in governance, and they do not lose money.
The so-called winner of the hearts of the people wins the world, the Qing Dynasty did not reuse Hanchen in the early days of the founding of the country, but after slowly understanding this truth, he gradually let Hanchen hold great power in the court.
Emperor Kangxi even gave the green light to the Han people, forbidding the Manchurians to take the top three in the imperial examination, leaving all the opportunities to the Han people
This favor allowed the Han people to greatly change the negative impression they had of ethnic minorities for many years, and to work harder for the Manchu court.
The Manchu Qing Dynasty relied on the implementation of the Manchu and Han family policy, and relied on 3 million Manchus to control 300 million Han people, and I have to admit that they are very wise in political means.
