I was watching short videos and was seen by ancient people

Chapter 203 Read the 319-year history of the Song Dynasty in one go ([-])
[During the reign of Song Shenzong Zhao Xu, the Northern Song Dynasty faced an unprecedented crisis.

The country's economic situation is declining day by day, the army's combat effectiveness is weak, and the Liao Dynasty and Xixia on the border are also eyeing it, and the situation is worrying.

In order to save the Northern Song Dynasty from its ruling crisis, Song Shenzong Zhao Xu decided to take action.

He appointed Wang Anshi, a famous reformist minister, as prime minister and implemented reforms. This historical event was called "Wang Anshi's Reform" by later generations.

Wang Anshi was a far-sighted reformer who firmly believed that the country could become prosperous and powerful through reform.

Therefore, he launched a series of new policies aimed at strengthening the country's fiscal revenue, improving the military's combat effectiveness, and improving people's living conditions.

However, these new policies met with strong opposition from conservatives.

Conservatives are powerful and believe that these changes will undermine social order and threaten their interests.

Song Shenzong Zhao Xu was shaken by the opposition of these conservatives, and his determination for reform began to change.

Despite this, Song Shenzong did not give up his dream of reform.

He personally presided over the reform of Yuanfeng and continued to promote the country's reform.This reform has enhanced the country's economic and military strength to a certain extent.

In 1082, with the increase in national power, Song Shenzong turned his attention to foreign aggression.He took advantage of the turmoil in Xixia and launched the third Song-Xia War.

However, the outcome of the war was not satisfactory. The Northern Song Dynasty suffered a heavy defeat in the Battle of Yongle City, losing hundreds of thousands of troops.

When the news of the defeat reached Kaifeng, Song Shenzong Zhao Xu felt very sad.

He cried bitterly in the court, unable to hide his sadness and disappointment.

The failure of this war dealt a heavy blow to his soul, and his physical condition deteriorated as a result.Soon after, Song Shenzong Zhao Xu died of illness at the age of only 38. 】

Qin Dynasty.

Qin Shihuang sighed slightly when he saw the video on the sky screen.

Although the Song Dynasty was extremely prosperous, it did not have open arms to the outside world, so it could only suppress itself.

Moreover, both reforms ended in failure. I am afraid that we will never have the intention to reform again and can only continue with the original model.

His Great Qin's Shang Yang's reform was extremely difficult to implement at that time, but his Great Qin succeeded.

If it weren't for Shang Yang's successful reform, I am afraid that Da Qin would not have the strength to compete with the six countries for hegemony.

And he is now able to eliminate the six countries and unify the world because of the foundation laid at that time.

But the situation in the world was changing. After he unified the six countries, Qin Shihuang felt more and more that the previous policies were more of an obstacle to the present.

Especially after Tianmu appeared, more knowledge and concepts impacted Da Qin, as well as previous policies.

In order to adapt to the current situation, especially absorbing the policies of the Ming Dynasty and the Song Dynasty, Qin Shihuang was also pursuing innovation and changes.

Just how effective is it?It still takes time to check.

Han Dynasty.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che looked at the video on the sky screen and felt sorry for the Song Dynasty.

If the Song Dynasty were not inherently deficient, I am afraid that the reforms of the Song Dynasty would be successful.

At that time, the Song Dynasty may usher in new glory in a different way.

But how can a country without force cope with the rapid changes in the world?
Unlike him, if there is a domestic conflict, he can use powerful force to divert the conflict.

What's more, it's a pity that the emperor's health was not very good. He only lived 38 years old and died?
At first glance, it seemed that he didn't exercise much, which was why his body was so weak.

If he were a big man and trained with Huo Qubing or Wei Qing for a few months, this situation might not happen.

And if the emperor does not have firm confidence to carry out reforms, I am afraid that no matter how good the reform policy is, it will not be implemented.

The emperors of the Song Dynasty were simply negative teaching materials for him, making him realize again that the country cannot value civility over military affairs?So Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, took out his writing brush and wrote the contents on the canopy on a piece of paper.

He hoped that what he saw could bring some inspiration to his son Liuzhi, so that he would not do too much when he became emperor in the future.

Wang Mang watched the video on the marquee and expressed that he fully understood the hardships of reform.

He has been constantly reforming since he came to the throne, but facing opposition from various domestic forces really gave him a headache.

But if the imperial court does not reform, it will slowly rot and eventually perish.

After all, in the face of interests, the future is not worth looking at.

Three Kingdoms period.

Cao Cao watched the video on the marquee and studied it too carefully.

After all, the experience of the Song Dynasty was an opportunity for him to learn.

At the same time, he believed that the Song Dynasty's reforms failed because, first, they were soft-hearted and easily shaken their beliefs.

The other is that we are taking too big a step and are eager to promote it nationwide when there are no results.

At the same time, he was also curious about the specific reform policies of the Song Dynasty. After all, these experiences were very useful, and he might even be able to use them one day.

Sui Dynasty.

Yang Guang looked at the video on the sky screen and became more and more dismissive of the Song Dynasty.

After all, the emperors who appeared on the sky were much stronger than the emperors of the Ming Dynasty?
But the result was very chilling.

At the same time, he also discovered that every time the Emperor of the Song Dynasty wanted to reform, he would waver in his determination to reform due to the opposition of conservatives.

If it weren't for the emperor's wavering, I'm afraid the reform might have succeeded.

It would be strange if such an emperor could succeed in reform.

Tang Dynasty.

When Li Shimin saw the video on the marquee, he felt even more regretful.

After all, China at this time was already in a corner.

If the Song Dynasty had not risen, I am afraid that China would have experienced the same situation as the Northern Dynasties.

The Han people in the entire country will once again become two-legged sheep in the eyes of the surrounding forces.

Although the Song Dynasty was a later dynasty, Li Shimin and Li Shimin hoped that the Song Dynasty would rise so that the Han people would not be inferior to others.

At the same time, he once again set his sights on the battlefield with Goguryeo.

As the war with Goguryeo intensified, countless soldiers from the two countries began to fight face to face on the battlefield, and corpses were strewn all over the battlefield.

Cruel?
It's cruel!
But if Goguryeo is not solved now, then the Tang Dynasty will face a steady stream of border threats just like the Song Dynasty.

In order to prevent this situation from happening in Datang, Li Shimin hoped to resolve all border disputes in his lifetime.

Beat all the surrounding forces until they are all submissive.

And Li Shimin's ambition is not just that, he also hopes to expand territory for his descendants during his lifetime.

Just as he was thinking, the war drums on the battlefield sounded again, and his Tang army began to march towards the enemy's town again.

Countless soldiers rushed forward, rushing towards the enemy regardless of their lives.
