These deeds are even described as wonderful, and it is no exaggeration. They are as magical as today's strange events.
For example, the mother of Yin Qi, the ancestor of Shang Dynasty, was pregnant by swallowing a bird's egg, while Zhou Wenwang's mother was pregnant by stepping on the footprints of a giant, and she had such strange physical characteristics as "four breasts".
Liu Bang said that his mother dreamed of a dragon before giving birth to herself. According to the history books of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Liu Xiu was born, all the houses were lit up.
Although these statements seem strange now, people believed them in the feudal era at that time.
You know, China people worship their ancestors very much, and their glorious deeds must be magical for future generations.
Although the history books of the Qing Dynasty did not exaggerate the ancestors' life experience as mentioned above, they wrote a great book that Nurhachi set out with thirteen pairs of armor and laid the foundation for the Great Qing Dynasty.
Moreover, the whole cause was interpreted as a romantic idol drama, accusing the Ming officials of being unfair to Nurhachi and cruel and oppressive to Nuzhen.
Nurhachi wrote very well about how to bear the blood feud and finally resist. Let the listener cry and the viewer grieve.
This story of Nurhachi has been repeatedly publicized for countless times in the modern times when the Qing Palace drama was rampant, which once again plated several layers of gold on the brilliance of this matter.
But is this really the case? You know, in feudal times, deification was an indispensable part of any official propaganda.
First of all, Nurhachi was born well. Six ancestors of Nurhachi in Ming Dynasty met with Judy, the founder of Ming Dynasty, and expressed their willingness to submit to the above table. Judy gave their family an order to establish a country, making such a hereditary position.
Although there were many frictions between the Nurhachi family and the Ming Dynasty, both sides conquered each other. For example, the fourth ancestor of Nurhachi was killed by the Ming army for robbing the Liaodong border of the Ming Dynasty.
However, the command of Jianzhou made this position belong to the Nurhachi family, which is also a golden signboard.
With this order, there is an official authorization, and there is a legal basis for possessing arms and chassis.
Although during the period of Nuerhachi's grandfather Aisingiorro Juechang 'an and his father Aisingiorro Tucker, the power of the commander-in-chief of statehood gradually declined, Juechang 'an and Tucker were also killed by the Ming army.
However, in the great course of Nuerhachi's reunification with Jurchen, Nuerhachi's banner to the outside world will always be the founding commander of the Ming Dynasty.
In today's popular words, Nurhachi used the brand and agent of Daming Company to develop his own business.
Daming Company doesn't provide him with five insurances and one gold for food and shelter, but it is really more convenient to have the authorization of a big company to develop his career.
The second reason why Nurhachi was able to rise was to take advantage of the loopholes in the ethnic policy of the Ming Dynasty. Because at that time, the northeast region was mixed with good and evil people, Mongolians, Han people, Koreans and jurchen were mixed together. Women are really the most, but also the most chaotic and divisive.
At that time, the Yehe Department, the Nikan Wailan Department and the Chen Zhe Department of Jurchen were the main departments at that time. In particular, the most powerful Yehe department at that time was the enemy of the Ming Dynasty and the sworn enemy of the Nurhachi family who followed the Ming Dynasty.
In the Ming Dynasty, officials took advantage of the chaos and contradictions among these tribes to carry out the policy of "eliminating the strong and helping the weak". It means that whichever tribe is strong, it will be weakened or eradicated, and a relatively weak force will be supported for checks and balances.
This method is actually based on the same principle as the balance policy adopted by Britain in continental Europe.
The method is good, but it is difficult to keep a balance, because politics and military affairs are constantly changing and unpredictable. Once this method is deviated, it will be in danger of losing everything.
