After Korea, Zhao and Wei were divided into Jin, why was there such a big gap in strength among the three countries? In the history of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it is a far-reaching event for the three schools to divide Jin. In 453 BC, Zhao joined forces with the Han and Wei Dynasties to destroy Zhi's family, and the State of Jin existed in name only. In 403 BC, King Wei Lie of Zhou made Han Qian, Evonne and Wei Si princes. By 376 BC,, and Zhao carved up the State of Jin. After the three factions were divided into Jin, the pattern of seven heroes in the Warring States period was formed. Among them, as far as South Korea is concerned, it has not only become the weakest vassal state in the Sanjin Dynasty, but also the lowest strength among the Seven Heroes in the Warring States Period. So, why is the strength gap between the three countries so big?

First, Korea, Zhao and Wei have different development directions (subjective factors). The most important factor is that the three countries have different development directions and different political reforms. In the early Eastern Han Dynasty, political reform was very popular, especially after the political reform of Wei. Its prosperity aroused the vigilance of other countries, but it gave other countries a model to learn from, so all countries in the world began to look for political reform to achieve the effect of enriching the country and strengthening the people.

However, the actual effect brought by the reform is completely different from that brought by the reform. Different types and nature of reform will eventually produce different effects and benefits, which is not only the main reason for the strength gap between the three countries, but also the influencing factor of the strength gap between the seven heroes in the Warring States period.

1. Li Kui's legal reform and Wuqi's military reform pushed Wei to the altar of hegemony. Let's start with Wei. Wei was the first country to carry out political reform during the Warring States Period. At that time, the political reform it chose was the parallel reform of legal system and national defense; First of all, after being elected, he carried out reforms in the legal system and formulated a series of rules and regulations for Wei's national development, which clearly showed the establishment and development of Wei's national defense, the employment mechanism of the administrative department and the economic land system.

In this case, the rapid development of Wei is actually smoother than other countries. After all, with the control of the standard system, the actions of ordinary people will be bound by standards, so that uncontrollable factors in social development will be reduced and the rapid development of national strength will be very easy. In addition, when carrying out the political reform, it mainly paid attention to the economic aspect, which promoted the main force of Wei's production and gave Wei more opportunities to gather national wealth.

Therefore, Anyi and the main girder have been built into two global metropolises, which shows the wealth of Wei people. When a country's people get rich, they will be easily satisfied, their dissatisfaction with social development will be reduced, and social and economic development will be stabilized first. Here, in such an eventful autumn, rich countries have more network resources to develop national defense, provide more applications for military activities, and better recruit talents to develop and strengthen the strength of the whole country.

Under the powerful policy of current social and economic development, Wei Wenhou chose Wuqi to carry out national defense reform; After Wu Qi came to power, he trained a Wei Wuzu for Wei. All the training norms and selection methods of Wei Wuzu are brand-new and harsh. Under the improvement of Wuqi, Wei Jun's rules and regulations, establishment and reward rules and regulations are also different from other countries.

Only in this way can we better screen out soldiers with higher quality. With the improvement of individual combat capability, the combat strength of the whole army will also be improved. Coupled with Wuqi's own military talent, the development of Wei in that era was invincible; It is not difficult to see that the benefits brought by the reform to Wei are enormous. It can even be said that Wei could not have become a powerful country at the beginning of its establishment without the reform with Wuqi.

2. Zhao Wuling's riding and shooting made Zhao a military power, followed by Zhao. In the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, due to the prosperity of Wei, other countries avoided its edge, so did Ye Zhao. Therefore, Zhao rarely makes a big splash, but this country's respect for national defense has not been suppressed. It has been striving to develop its military strength at a high speed.

Later, Wei was defeated and the reform was strong. Zhao also followed the trend of the times and reformed the riding and shooting of King Wuling of Zhao. This is a simple national defense reform, which has improved the combat style of the army and optimized the military system, so that Zhao's military strength has suddenly increased and become a country that can compete with Qin.

Although Zhao did not pay attention to the improvement of other aspects when carrying out the reform of riding and shooting, which made Zhao's economic level always weak and the high-speed development at the trip level appeared to be disorderly, the Warring States period was, after all, an upside-down era. At that time, the relationship between the two countries was complicated, and the stability and main performance of national strength were more manifested in military strength. After all, Zhao has a strong army, and other countries are of course afraid of recklessness and war. Therefore, the benefits brought by the national defense transformation to Zhao are also enormous.

3. Compared with these two countries, the reform mode chosen by South Korea is not worth mentioning. In fact, Shen Buhai was chosen for political reform because he saw the rapid development of Wei, and Shen Buhai, like Shang Yang, was a legalist and did have his own political reform management system. However, Shen Buhai's political reform was quite different from that of Shang Yang and Li Kui, and it was a surgical reform.

The rule of law by nature and skill is one of the mainstream consciousness of legalists, but their final effects in the country are quite different. The rule of law is a form of establishing a clear management system to restrain everyone's personal behavior, regardless of anyone's will. The rule of law is naturally a means for kings to govern the country, but once the bill is promulgated, it must be observed. Similar to rules and regulations.

4. Political reform has made South Korea a country that advocates political power and has different political treatment. Political treatment is subject to the king's wishes. In this way, who can have a more suitable relationship with the king? Who can get the respect of the king, who takes precedence over which aspect when establishing laws and regulations. So, can the wind of flattery be far behind? In order to improve their status and development prospects, can intrigue and political winds be far behind?

So South Korea has gradually become a country that advocates intrigue and politics. After all, it is not necessarily true that everyone wants to be an online celebrity around the king. As long as the king has feelings for you, the bill depends on you. Of course, intrigue among ministers is more serious than in other countries. Who will devote most of their energy to the real development of the country?

Therefore, when Shen Buhai was still alive, it reflected prosperity, but after Shen Buhai died, the overall development of South Korea was completely affected; In fact, South Korea itself is a very loyal and upright country. The well-known Zhao orphans in history have been satisfied by South Korea, and "counting Zhao orphans" is also considered to be a great virtue of South Korea. When Sima Qian, the Taishi Duke, wrote historical records, he described this incident as the yin virtue of South Korea, indicating that South Korea was not a country that advocated strategy too much at that time.

However, since Shen Buhai's political reform, things have changed, which is also the main reason why South Korea issued a certificate at the end of the Warring States Period to prove that Zheng was tired of Qin. In fact, if we must discuss the difference between skill reform and rule of law reform, you can compare the prime minister system established in the Qin Dynasty with the cabinet rules and regulations of the Ming Dynasty.

In ancient history, there were many contests between imperial power and relative power. The reason why the prime minister has such great influence is because the rules and regulations give him the right to rule. Because of this system, they can compete with the imperial power in the market, which is not up to the king. However, the rules and regulations of the cabinet are different. The cabinet is a temporary organization established according to the king's preference. When the king is happy, the power of the cabinet is great, and when the king is afraid, the so-called cabinet prime minister is likely to be disintegrated in an instant.

The rule of law and the rule of art are the differences between rules and regulations; We all know that these three countries have chosen different ways of political reform, which has greatly harmed the development model of these three eras. Those who choose the rule of law can develop in an orderly and sustainable way, those who choose national defense can have strong military power, and those who choose to "change the law with technology" have indeed deviated from the atmosphere of the whole court!

Second, geopolitical and territorial differences (objective factors) objective factors are also one of the reasons that determine the development gap of the strength of these three countries, usually at the level of location and territorial area; In fact, it seems that the three countries divide the money, but the specific rights and interests gained by the three countries in this incident are completely different.

1. Korea has the smallest area and the smallest population. South Korea occupies the least area, but in the era of relatively backward technology and transportation, small land area means small population, which determines that the main productivity that can be created will not be too high; This country has been firmly flawed when it developed itself.

After all, at that time, most of the work needed people to achieve, and population was a resource that all countries must compete for. Therefore, among the three countries, South Korea has benefited the least, and its land area also determines that its growth rate is not as good as the other two countries.

2. Poor geopolitics, lack of mountains and rivers and customs defense, and South Korea's geographical position is unfavorable to itself; On the whole, South Korea is a key area in the Central Plains, which is a very strategic geographical location, but for a rich and powerful country. For China, such as Wei and Qin, South Korea is in an advantageous position, and occupying South Korea is equivalent to occupying the key of the Central Plains. Whether going south or north, there are natural benefits and it is very beneficial to promote it in China.

But this is not the case in South Korea. South Korea's own rapid development strength is weak. This position depends on it being coveted by other countries. There are Zhao and Wei in the north, Qin in the west and Chu in the south. These countries all want to take his territory as their own for their own development. How can South Korea have a stable development trend under the eyes of these governors?

Therefore, at that time, South Korea was developing in the cracks, lacking mountains and rivers and barriers for defense, and its influence was used by other countries. This will naturally not make South Korea have too prosperous strength, otherwise it will be inconvenient for future occupation, so it has an important strategic position, which is not good for South Korea.

Relatively speaking, Zhao Guo and Guo Wei do not have this shortcoming, and their development strength in these two eras is relatively strong. Like Guo Wei, although they are also afraid of the key points of the Central Plains, their geographical position is even more thoughtful because of their own strength. Zhao is located in the northwest, and its strategic significance is not critical, but it can bypass the light of other countries and protect itself. Therefore, everyone said that the shortcomings of geographical location and territorial area made South Korea feel powerless in the process of development.

Third, summing up South Korea's national development strength is not as good as Zhao and Wei, which is caused by many factors. Objectively speaking, South Korea suffers from its small land area, which will hinder its development more than other countries, and its small population will hinder its promotion of social productivity, so the starting point in the process of development is very low. That's all. Thank you for reading.
