History live broadcast: the beginning is Qin Shihuang's live broadcast of the subjugation of th

"First, with Emperor Wu of Zhou's talent and strategy, how could he not have imagined the situation today, so there are many princes in the Yuwen family leading troops in various places."

"Secondly, Yuwentai's nephew, the general manager of Xiangzhou, Wei Chijiong, has a large number of troops and is eyeing the old Qi territory. Moreover, the Qi territory has just been conquered, so there are great variables."

"Thirdly, Shu, the back garden of Guanzhong, is also restless, and there are also reports of rebellion."

"Yang Jian is very talented. He took advantage of the opportunity of marrying the princess to lure the prince who led the troops of the Yuwen family back to the capital and then controlled him."

Unexpectedly, Yuwentai's nephew Yuchijiong rebelled soon. "

"As the general manager of Xiangzhou, Wei Chijiong thought that he was an important minister and general of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and he was the person who should assist the government. When he saw that Yang Jian had unexpectedly attacked the power, he felt very dissatisfied."

"So he raised his troops in the Eastern Xia Dynasty. Unexpectedly, Sima Xiaonan, the governor of Yunzhou, and Wang Qian, the governor of Yizhou, raised troops to respond. As expected, they also rebelled. The situation was very difficult for Yang Jian."

"With the smoke rising everywhere, ordinary people would have panicked a long time ago, but Yang Jian didn't. Yang Jian not only has military capabilities, but Yang Jian can also recruit people."

"And his ability to employ people far exceeds his military ability. This time, Yang Jian used one person, Gao Ying, to put down Yuchijun's rebellion."

"At this time, Gao Ying was not the world-famous prime minister of the Sui Dynasty, but still an unknown person."

"But Yang Jian saw Gao Ying's talent and sent Gao Ying to Wei Xiaokuan's army as a supervisor."

"Wei Xiaokuan is a famous general of his generation, but in the battle to pacify Yuchijun, Gao Ying undoubtedly took the lead and showed his outstanding military talent."

"Including the later famous generals Han Qinhu and He Ruobi who pacified the Chen Dynasty, they were all discovered by Yang Jian."

"To say that Yang Jian was lucky, there was a talented and strategic Emperor Wu of Zhou who came before him and cultivated a large number of talents for the Northern Zhou Dynasty. Now these talents have all become Yang Jian's help."

"So although Yang Jian was blessed with good fortune and completely inherited the mantle of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, it was still very difficult to unify the world. With Yang Jian's good fortune and great talent, it took nine years to complete the unification. If we include the inheritance from his father His titles are more than this."

Qin Shihuang: This is a good saying!I don't believe in fate and want to unify the world without any means?Are you dreaming?Luck is a bonus, ability is the main thing!

Wu Qi: Listen to these dynasties. What kind of garbage dynasties are these?Except for one or two, everyone's ideological quality was low, and several kings in succession indulged in drinking, sex, and having no great ambitions. How could such a dynasty survive?

Zhu Yuanzhang: This Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty was anything but simple. Yang Jian was originally dishonest, and his status, qualifications, and actual power in the court were all too high. In addition, he was lenient in government and won the hearts of the people, and he was plotting to usurp the throne. It's just one step away. Why don't people want this position? There is nothing wrong with the saying "higher merits than master". No one likes ministers with great power.

Li Yuan: You have underestimated Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. His IQ and EQ were not low at all. Even without Queen Dugu, the Great Sui Dynasty could be established. It was just a matter of sooner or later.

"The overall situation of the north-south structure at that time was actually very biased towards the Sui Dynasty. After years of regime changes and the governance of mediocre kings, the Southern Dynasty had actually long lost the qualification to compete with the Northern Dynasty for hegemony. It could only take advantage of the fact that the North had not yet been unified. It’s time to just live an ignoble existence.”

"What's more, Yang Jian has outstanding abilities and has implemented a series of reform policies to make the north more prosperous."

"He not only unified the currency system and weights and measures, creating great convenience for the development of people's livelihood, but also implemented various tolerance measures to ensure the overall healthy development of the social economy."

"At the same time, taxes were reduced and reduced, and the land equalization system was implemented, so the farmers lived a happy life." "Most importantly, Yang Jian abolished the nine-grade Zhongzheng system, which made it much smoother for civilians to become officials."

"It is worth mentioning that Yang Guang, the later Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty, was the main commander who destroyed the Chen Dynasty at that time."

"Moreover, in the process of destroying the Chen Dynasty, there were almost no extremely bloody and fierce battles. Relying on the overwhelming force and command, the capital of the Chen Dynasty was captured in one fell swoop."

"And the emperors of the Chen Dynasty are gone. No matter how hard some forces scattered in other places resist, it doesn't make much sense, so they surrender one after another."

"The war has been going on for a long time and the world is at peace. The next step must be to implement benevolent government and strengthen the country. After all, no one wants to shed blood and sacrifice."

"Yang Jian first ordered those Han people whose surnames were changed to those of ethnic minorities to change their names back. From an ideological point of view, he pursued Han culture as the first priority."

"After that, he brought various important industries into the government run, effectively strengthened the control of people's livelihood and achieved the growth of national fiscal revenue."

"Coupled with too many policies, and considering the people and officials, they directly stabilized the Sui Dynasty."

"There are so many good measures ahead. With these policies, Yang Jian can be said to be a good emperor that is rare to see in a thousand years."

"In terms of merit, he can indeed be regarded as one of the best, provided that he doesn't make mistakes later! It's a pity that the emperor was so stupid in his later years, and this one didn't escape. After sitting in this position for a long time, the emperor's treatment of people and affairs will inevitably change, and he will start to like to do whatever he wants. , enjoy yourself to the fullest.”

"When Yang Su built the palace for Yang Jian, he wasted money and people, causing a large number of deaths."

"Originally Yang Jian was quite angry, but when he heard that his queen liked him, he immediately turned from anger to joy. This undoubtedly set a very bad example."

"In addition, Yang Jian's temperament changed drastically in his later years. While he listened to slander, he also liked to kill innocent people indiscriminately. Several veteran rebel cadres and senior officials in the DPRK were killed inexplicably."

"After putting the policies into practice, not only has the atmosphere of the entire political arena declined and become a haven for corrupt officials, but the social legal system and disciplines that were finally established have also been destroyed, making it difficult to return to the past."

"In the end, Yang Jian, under the persuasion of a group of ministers and concubines and Yang Guang's exquisite performance, changed Yang Guang to the crown prince, which was the last straw for the fall of the Sui Dynasty. In the end, he could not escape the second generation and died."

"It is worth mentioning that although Yang Jian woke up later, it was too late and was murdered by Yang Guang."

"Looking at Yang Jian's life, the first half of his life was undoubtedly quite brilliant. From being born in a famous family to taking charge of the government, from ascending to the throne to becoming emperor and then to ruling the world, there are very few people in ancient history who have such experiences."

"However, Yang Jian's series of changes and wrong behaviors after he became emperor are unimaginable. It is really not something that should happen to a wise king.

"Most people blame the fall of the Sui Dynasty on Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, but as Wei Zheng said: tracing the source of its decline and observing its signs of chaos and destruction actually started with Emperor Wen!"
