In the fourth year of Emperor Huang, Liu Xiu made great contributions to the Battle of Kunyang. After Liu Xuanbei made Luoyang his capital, Liu Xiu was sent to Fuzhou County, Hebei Province.
The powerful landlords in Hebei led clans, guests and children to join Liu Xiu one after another and became his powerful pillar. Since then, Liu Xiu refused to listen to the mobilization of the regime. In the autumn of the same year, the peasant uprising army in Hebei Province was disintegrated and incorporated, and it grew in strength. Therefore, Kansai called Liu Xiu "Emperor of the Bronze Horse".
Soon, it completely broke with the restart system. In June of the first year of Jianwu (AD 25), with the support of his ministers, Liu Xiu proclaimed himself emperor in (now Baixiangbei, Hebei Province), rebuilt the Han regime, and soon made Luoyang his capital, known as the Eastern Han Dynasty in history.
In the third year of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu defeated the red-eyed peasant army and controlled the whole middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River. Six years, the Kanto unification, Hexi Dou Rong attached.
In the ninth and twelfth years of Jianwu, Tianshui and Bashu were successively settled. 12 years later, Liu Xiu finally completed the great cause of reunification.
In the third year (25 years), Liu Xiu, who is already a "multinational army with millions of land", established Yuan Jianwu in Qianqiu Pavilion in Tancheng, Hebei Province (now the ancient town of Baixiang County, Xingtai City, Hebei Province).
In order to show the intention of reviving the Han Dynasty, Liu Xiuguo still used the title of "Han", which was called the Hou Dynasty (after the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, according to the fact that Luoyang, the capital city, was located in the East, the Han Dynasty was established by Liu Xiu), and Liu Xiu was the Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty.
Extended data:
1, new dynasty:
The New Dynasty (8-23 years) was established after the Western Han Dynasty by Wang Mang, the consort of the Western Han Dynasty. In the twelfth lunar month of the eighth year, Wang Mang abandoned the Confucian scholar Liu Ying of Han Dynasty as Anding Gong, changed his country name to Anding Gong, and established Chang 'an (now the site of Chang 'an City in Han An) as his capital, which was called Xin Mang in history.
After Wang Mang proclaimed himself emperor, he carried out many reforms, including: implementing the imperial land system, restricting the holding of private land, allocating 100 mu of surplus state-owned land to the landless, aiming at solving the serious problem of land merger since the end of the Western Han Dynasty, but it was completely impossible to implement;
It is forbidden to reward handmaiden; Promote state-owned enterprises; Reform the monetary system, etc. It was just that the laws of the new dynasty were complicated and changeable, and the reform eventually failed, which led to the rapid demise of the new dynasty.
In the fourth year of Emperor Huang (23 years), the new dynasty was overthrown by the outlaw hero; A total of/kloc-0 emperors, 1 5 years. After the peasant war, Liu Xuan established the Xuanhan regime.
The abdication of the new dynasty initiated the success of China's claim to the throne. Because the traditional view of history despises Zen as a way to transfer political power, Wang Mang has always been mistaken as a "hypocrite" by China historians.
China's ancient historians almost all gave negative comments on the new dynasty, especially in Hanshu, which regarded Wang Mang as a traitor and thief. Later generations also evaluated Wang Mang according to the viewpoint of Hanshu, and it was not until the late Qing Dynasty that the evaluation was changed.
2. Guangxu Zhongxing
The revival of Guangwu or the prosperity of Jianwu refers to the management of the world during the reign of Liu Xiu, Guangwu Emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Guangwudi ruled the world with judo and took a series of measures to restore and develop social production and alleviate the social crisis since the end of the Western Han Dynasty.
In his thirty-three years in office, Emperor Guangwu took a series of measures to restore and develop the economy. Politically, it is necessary to strengthen centralization and give generous rewards to those who have contributed, but they should be banned from politics. Exclude the three fairs, increase the power of ministers in charge of documents around the emperor, monopolize the national government affairs by the emperor through Shangshutai, abolish the local army, abolish the reform of service system, and lay off more than 400 counties;
Economically, the productive forces were liberated, and imperial edicts were issued to release handmaiden, stipulating that those who killed handmaiden should not have their sentences reduced, and those who burned handmaiden should be punished according to law. The handmaiden who was spared from being burned to death was Shu Ren, and the law that handmaiden shot and wounded people was abolished. Restore the lighter land tax system in the Western Han Dynasty, and implement thirty taxes and one tax. Organize troops to station fields. Release ex-prisoners as ordinary people and use them to farm fields in border counties.
Ordered land division, household registration, and strengthened the feudal state's control over land and labor. Culturally, carry forward Confucianism and respect honesty. The Eastern Han Dynasty was also praised by later historians as "the most beautiful and civilized time in China's history" (in the words of Sima Guang and Liang Qichao).
Due to the above measures, social stability, economic recovery and population growth appeared in the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Because Liu Xiu and posthumous title were both martial arts, this period was called the resurgence of martial arts.
