Slogans of various dynasties

Since China entered the feudal society, the peasant uprising has never stopped. From the establishment of the Qin Dynasty to the demise of the Qing Dynasty, peasant uprisings occurred in almost every dynasty. Peasant uprising is a reflection of the contradiction between autocratic court and civil society. To put it bluntly, the root cause is four words-* * *.

Peasant uprising is also a technical activity. To succeed, a good slogan is very important first. Let's look at the slogans of five famous peasant uprisings in history.

1. Chen Sheng in Guangwu Uprising: Does a general have seed?

This sentence can be said to be the most familiar to everyone. At the end of the Qin Dynasty, under the fatuous and brutal rule of Qin Ershi, people lived in poverty, and the first large-scale peasant uprising broke out in the history of China.

The social environment at that time was hereditary, and ordinary people could not do it. The slogan shouted by Chen Sheng and Guangwu expressed the poor people's desire for political equality for the first time, which was extremely inflammatory. Chen Sheng and Guangwu also proved this sentence with their later actions, which can be said to be a precedent of "political power comes out of the barrel of a gun".

Second, the yellow turban insurrectionary: Heaven dies, Huang Tianli, aged in Jiazi, the world is prosperous.

Due to the spread of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, this slogan is widely known in China. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court was corrupt and caught up with the national drought, and the crops were not harvested, but the taxes were not reduced at all. So under the call of Taoist Zhang Jiao, the poor rose up in succession.

Because Zhang Jiao is the founder of Taiping Road, this sentence also has a strong religious color. (History:) Although it has no practical significance, this sentence had a great influence at that time because of ancient feudal superstitions and religious beliefs.

Third, Wagangzhai Uprising: Help grandpa, help mom, and take children to Wagangzhai to eat food.

At the end of Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang Guang of Yang Di was extravagant and dissipated, abusing his power. In the past decades, he recruited tens of millions of people, built the Grand Canal, built the East Capital, built the Great Wall and so on. In addition, he frequently launched wars, which aroused people's dissatisfaction and eventually broke out in many places. Among them, Wagangjun is the strongest.

This slogan of Wagangzhai has caused farmers all over the country to defect. Although simple and popular, it was very useful for the uprising.

4. Wang Xiaobo and Li Shun Uprising: I once suffered from the inequality between the rich and the poor, and now I am like you.

This was an uprising in the early Northern Song Dynasty. We all know that the Song Dynasty was a very rich dynasty, so why did the uprising happen? From the slogans shouted by the uprising, we can see that due to the inequality between the rich and the poor.

Wang Xiaobo's slogan put forward the idea of "equal wealth" for the first time in history, which is a higher level than the previous uprising to eat enough.

5. Li Zicheng Uprising: Welcome the king, but the king will not accept the grain.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court was decadent, and the oppression of the people by royalty and landlords and gentry became increasingly serious. Years of famine led to peasant uprisings all over the country, of which Li Zicheng was the most important one.

In view of the exorbitant taxes and levies at that time, the Li Zicheng Rebel Army put forward the idea of "connecting fields and exempting grain". In order to facilitate the spread, the Li Zicheng Rebels transformed this idea into "Welcome the king, the king will not receive food when he comes" and spread this ballad everywhere. In the end, the widespread spread of ballads made Li Zicheng, the King of Rush, very popular among the people, which was a very successful slogan.

Some of these uprising slogans made use of the feudal superstition of the ancients and some were put forward according to the social environment at that time, but the essence was to let more people join the uprising army. Which sentence do you think is the best and most convincing?
