So how did the Qin Dynasty perish under the best system?
The most talked about about the demise of the Qin Dynasty is the death of Qin Dynasty II.

Of course, we all read fragments of history from history books.The closest dynasty to the Qin Dynasty is naturally the Han Dynasty.

History is written by the victors. In the pen of the victors, history is just a person without clothes. How you color it can survive in this world.

If you believe in history completely, instead of having your own independent thinking, then you will always be kept in the dark by some people.

First of all, let's take a look, why did the Qin Dynasty die in the second generation?

If you look at the ancient books of the Han Dynasty, the demise of the Qin Dynasty is nothing more than the word tyranny.

In order to commend their own legitimacy, and also to explain their sense of justice in the uprising, the rulers of the Han Dynasty propagandized to the common people that it was because the Qin Dynasty was too bastard that the rule was brutal and the common people could not survive, so we, the Han Dynasty, stood up to make a revolution .

Our Han Dynasty is to seek justice for the common people, our Han Dynasty is a good person, and we are sincerely good to the common people.

If you believe the propaganda of the Han Dynasty, it can only show that you are a complete SB, or that you are not a maverick pig.

In history, the birth of each new dynasty will discredit the previous ones.

And in the brochures of a new dynasty, it will be full of the darkness of the previous dynasty's rule, and the misery of the people, so our new dynasty replaces Tian Xingdao.

History is reincarnated, right?

So each of these dynasties that had discredited the previous dynasty will be discredited by the subsequent dynasties.

In fact, this is no wonder, after all, history is bloody, right?

Which dynasty did not have any dirty things?
Don't be naive, young people.

The world is very complicated.

Of course, there are still many people who do not agree with the reason why the brutal rule led to the demise of the Qin Dynasty.

So, they found some other ironic reasons.

The first interesting reason: the most powerful armies of the Qin Dynasty are located in the northern and southern borders. The core ruling area of ​​the Qin Dynasty is near Guanzhong and the capital Xianyang, and the troops are empty.

Here is a detailed explanation.

This is indeed a fact, but don’t ignore another fact. Take Meng Tian’s army as an example. They are border guards. In addition to the border guards, the Qin Dynasty also had troops stationed in every county. Why did the central government of the Qin Dynasty directly accept the county officials? Therefore, it was impossible to suppress the peasant uprising immediately with the help of the garrisons in the counties and counties.

The reason is actually very simple, because the rebellion headed by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang developed too fast and spread too widely. It seemed that suddenly, rebellions broke out all over the country, and the anti-government armed forces developed too fast, surpassing the Qin Dynasty all at once. North Korea's repressive forces.

The second interesting reason: Someone found the reason for the demise of the Qin Dynasty from the theory of modern management.

They believe that the Qin Dynasty suddenly extended the system that was originally implemented in one part of the Qin State to the whole country, and the climate was not acclimatized, leading to social unrest and eventually collapse.

The Qin State is a small country, and the Qin Dynasty destroyed the six countries, and the territory and population expanded many times. The national conditions of the whole country are more complicated than that of Qin State. If the system implemented in Qin State is rashly promoted throughout the country, it will intensify various conflicts.

This argument sounds very reasonable, but didn't many dynasties in China also gradually move from a small territory to a unified country?

Didn't they also spread the system that was practiced in a small place to the whole country?
So why didn't they go wrong?
Isn't the national system of the United States the same as the original thirteen colonies in the east?

Why, Qin Chao died?
A third interesting reason:

After the Qin Dynasty unified the country, it unified the national currency and firmly grasped the right to issue currency. Due to some reasons, the currency supply was insufficient, severe deflation occurred, the economy was on the verge of collapse, and finally caused chaos in the world.

This is a bit of a brain hole, and I can write the rhythm of fantasy novels.

After seeing his analysis, you will suddenly have an idea: it turns out that my country's finances were already so developed in the Qin Dynasty more than 2000 years ago.

A financial crisis could destroy one of the two most powerful empires in the world at the time.

I think this is an over-interpretation, not that exaggerated.

At that time, the commodity economy was underdeveloped, the finance was underdeveloped, and deflation was not so destructive.

Moreover, since the Industrial Revolution, there has been a financial crisis in Britain almost every ten years, but the British Empire has not perished.So, what is the real reason for the death of Qin Dynasty II?

In fact, the root cause of the demise of the Qin Dynasty was actually the land system.

Simply put, the Qin Dynasty did not carry out land reforms in time, which led to the eventual demise of the Qin Dynasty.

Land is a fundamental issue that cannot be ignored by any dynasty or regime.

Only when the land issue is handled well, can a regime and a dynasty enjoy long-term stability.

When it comes to this understanding, people who are familiar with modern history are deeply touched and absolutely agree with it [-]%.

But why do many people get confused when it comes to the Qin Dynasty more than 2000 years ago?

How did the land problem faced by the Qin Dynasty come about?How did it bring down the Qin Dynasty?

This matter started with Shang Yang's reform.

The top priority of Shang Yang's reform was land reform.

In the past, the land of the Qin State was owned by the nobles, the state protected the rights and interests of the nobles, and the nobles undertook obligations such as military service to the state.

After all, the number of nobles is limited. During the Spring and Autumn and Warring States period, the scale of wars became larger and larger, and there were not enough nobles.

And those slaves and peasants who are attached to the nobles are not willing to fight for the country because they have no land, no property, no rights, and no dignity.

Therefore, the special dishes of the Qin State at the beginning were constantly pressed to the ground by other countries and rubbed against each other.

The monarch of the state of Qin couldn't bear this kind of insult, so he hired Shang Yang as a professional manager with a high salary to carry out reforms in the state of Qin.

Shang Yang's idea is very simple: How can we mobilize the enthusiasm of the broad masses of the people and let the six eastern countries fall into the vast ocean of Qin's people's war?

With a brain hole, he designed a plan:
Forcibly nationalize the land privately owned by the nobles, nationalize the barren land, nationalize the land without an owner, and nationalize as much land as possible.

The state distributes the right to use the land to the common people.

However, this is conditional.

On the one hand, after the land is distributed, the common people must fight for the country, serve the country as corvee, produce food and other strategic materials for the country, and pay taxes for the country.

On the other hand, if the common people have obtained military merit, or become a model worker and a small expert in production, then your title (Qin [-]-level military merit title system is divided into [-] levels, respectively: first-level public official, second-level master, Three hairpin curls, four no changes, five officials, six officials, seven officials, eight officials, nine five officials, ten left elders, eleven right elders, twelve left elders, thirteen middle elders, and fourteen On the right, the [-]th Shao Shangzao, the [-]th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (Daliang Zao), the [-]th Siche Shuchang, the [-]th Dashuchang, the [-]th Guanneihou, and the [-]th Chehou.) will be promoted, according to the title By upgrading, you can get more land and higher official positions.

Shang Yang's reform is really great.

The people of the Qin Dynasty went crazy, and everyone became a militarist.

Only by fighting can we survive and live better.

In that era, everything a man needed could only be obtained on the battlefield.

Relying on Shang Yang's genius idea, the Qin Dynasty was extremely ferocious, and finally wiped out the six kingdoms, unified the whole country, and established the first unified dynasty in Chinese history.

However, after the establishment of the Qin Dynasty, Shang Yang's system faced an unprecedented problem:
It could not be promoted and practiced throughout the Qin Dynasty.

Land is the root of all problems
Is it true that Shang Yang is the only wise man, and Qin is the only wise man? Why didn't the six eastern countries carry out land reform?
In fact, Shang Yang's reform measures were not thought up by Shang Yang. These measures appeared in the six eastern countries very early and were also implemented in the six eastern countries.

However, the six eastern countries have a big problem:

The population is large, but the land is small; the aristocracy is too powerful.

They were unable to carry out thorough land reform, and eventually their national power was surpassed by Qin.

Now that the Qin Dynasty has unified the whole country, the issue of land reform has stumped Qin Shihuang, the eternal emperor.

Qin Shihuang was helpless, and Li Si was helpless.

Finally, thinking of a solution that was not a solution, Qin Shihuang thought to himself:
It is very difficult for my generation to solve this problem, so let the children and grandchildren solve it.

Qin Shihuang finally chose to implement one country, two systems:
Originally, the land of the Qin State was state-owned; later, the land of the six eastern countries was privately owned.

However, Qin Shihuang did not expect that the land issue would explode.

For the common people and grassroots in the land of the six eastern countries, they are very dissatisfied: they did not get the land like the people of the old Qin, but they also had to bear heavy corvee.

They are also very dissatisfied with the nobles on the land of the six eastern countries: they own the land, but because the country was destroyed by Qin, they lost their political power.

Well, this time, the poor and the rich in the six eastern countries are very dissatisfied with the Great Qin Dynasty.

Before the Qin Dynasty destroyed the six countries, the poor and the rich in the six eastern countries were incompatible with each other. It was the Great Qin Dynasty and Qin Shihuang who gave them common interests and common enemies.

Almost in an instant, the poor and rich people of the six eastern countries rebelled one after another.

The Great Qin Dynasty, which had a very weak ruling foundation in the six eastern countries, was completely overwhelmed, and was soon beaten to the ground without recovering.

Later, the Han Dynasty took a big advantage, and at the end of Qin Dynasty, great turmoil occurred in the six eastern countries.

The turmoil in the late Qin Dynasty mainly occurred in the six eastern countries.

what does that mean?This means that many nobles, landlords, and wealthy people in the six eastern countries were wiped out in the turmoil, and the overall population also declined due to the war. Therefore, the Han Dynasty carried out land reforms in the six eastern countries logically, and became a strong and prosperous country. The Han Empire laid a solid foundation.

In this way, the hard bones of the Great Qin Empire were so easily wiped out by the Han Dynasty.

There are no ifs in history, but if you assume that as the ruler of the Qin Dynasty, as Qin Shihuang, Qin II, as the prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, how about gnawing at the hard bone of land reform?

In fact, the best way is to secretly deploy troops in the six eastern countries.

Instigate and lure the nobles of the six countries to rebel, resolutely suppress, take the opportunity to take back the land in their hands, and distribute it to the soldiers of the Qin army who participated in the suppression of the rebellion. This is equivalent to deploying more forces.

It is very unwise to passively wait for the rebellion to happen, because once the rebels rebel, they are often prepared to a certain extent.

Seducing, instigating, and forcing them to rebel will make it easier to suppress them.

Emperor Jianwen of the Ming Dynasty cut down the vassals, and Kangxi Xiaomazi of the Qing Dynasty forced Wu Sangui to rebel. They all adopted this strategy.Of course, Emperor Jianwen played off in the end. Who made him meet the awesome Zhu Di? His life was not good.
