What are the striking similarities in history?

The ancient dynasty's policy of reclaiming farmland in the western regions is exactly the same as that of the New China Construction Corps in Xinjiang today.

History is so strikingly similar.

As we all know, the Han Dynasty opened the door to the western regions after opening the Hexi Corridor. Since Zhang Qian hollowed out the Western Regions, Emperor Wudi and other ministers have been tirelessly exploring. Facing the vast western regions, rich land, numerous city-states and complicated power relations, the Han Dynasty created an "unreasonable" way to expand the territory.

Is farming.

Since then, farming, as one of the most awesome survival skills of China people, has officially entered the historical stage.

The earliest farming in the Western Regions in the Han Dynasty began in BC 10 1 year. At that time, Emperor Wudi cultivated land in Yuli, but the scale was relatively small, and it was only used to supply food for messengers. Found out later, huh? The land here is quite fertile, and the grain planted here is also good, so large-scale directional resettlement began later, extending to Luntai and Ruoqiang in the south.

In the period of Xuan Di, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, in order to complete the unification of the western regions, they began to reclaim land in Cheshi and Chigucheng (now Yili) and established the capital of the western regions. In the vast land of the west, fertile farmland can be seen everywhere.

A variety of land, there is food to eat, food to eat, a good life, people can settle down, and the logistics supply of the army is also guaranteed. Nothing is more useful and effective than this kind of immigration and territorial development. In contrast, those seemingly powerful forces that cannot be conquered by force are simply weak.

In fact, from the spring of BC, the seeds of the first crop were sown in this land of the Western Regions, and this land of Xinjiang and the Central Plains Dynasty had a feeling of never giving up, and they had the best ties to maintain their relationship.

Since then, we have been on and off, sometimes coming back and sometimes leaving the western regions. However, the reclamation policy of the Central Plains dynasty never stopped, and every emperor and ruler unswervingly implemented it.

Things have changed. In a blink of an eye, People's Republic of China (PRC) was established and Xinjiang returned.

At this moment, the familiar camel rang again. Along the Hexi Corridor, cars are crowded with people, bearing the historical mission and new hope. People once again rushed from the Central Plains to the great land of the Western Regions, and the abandoned farmland once again saw the new green, as if seeing the busy figure of the ancients working hard here, ploughing in spring and harvesting in autumn.

The cycle of history has finally been the most perfect interpretation here.
