China
Qin Shihuang was based in the northwest and eventually unified the whole country; Throughout the feudal history, northern China has always been the central plains for contention. For a long time, the Central Plains is also the most economically developed, culturally active and densely populated area in China. Whether active or passive, the fighting capacity and martial spirit of the people in the Central Plains are naturally not weak.
Further north, in the grasslands and northeast China, countless nomads and fishing and hunting peoples have emerged. They are all soldiers and even swept the world. Xianbei has established many dynasties; Mongolian warrior who once laid the largest territory in human history; The Manchu Eight Banners, which once occupied the world, are all examples.

Even in the impression of many people, it seems that the South should produce talents instead of generals, and its elite soldier He Liangjiang is still not weak at all. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, more than half of the large-scale battles broke out in the south, including the anti-Japanese soldiers in Sichuan and Hunan, who broke out with unparalleled patriotic enthusiasm and dedication. They resisted the attack of Japanese invaders armed to the teeth and made great contributions to the victory of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression.
And in modern times, especially in the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period. As soon as the war is over, people, old and young, north and south, have the responsibility to defend their land against the Japanese war? . During the eight years of arduous War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the people of China made great efforts to fight against the Japanese invaders and made great sacrifices. People all over the world show the bloodiness and martial spirit of China people, which does not exist and should not be divided into different regions.

If we have to choose a representative, I think Hunan is the representative of China's modern martial spirit. Because from the modern history of the late Qing Dynasty, Hunan people have shown unparalleled influence.
Zeng Guofan who led the Xiang army to pacify the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement; Left, carried the coffin into Xinjiang and led the Xiang army to recover more than 6.5438+0.6 million square kilometers of land; ? I smile at the sky from the horizontal knife, should I stay or not? Tan sitong, one of the six gentlemen in the Reform Movement of 1898; Revolutionary ancestors Huang Xing, Cai E, Song, etc. Including the founders of New China, are all from Hunan.

No matter celebrities or famous soldiers in Hunan or ordinary soldiers from Hunan, they all showed unparalleled bloodiness, which brought great influence to the modern history of China. So, is there? No Hunan, no army? 、? If China perishes, unless Hunan people perish? 、? A group of Hunan people, half a modern history? The reputation of.
So I don't think it's an exaggeration to regard Hunan as the representative of China's modern martial arts. Of course, this does not mean that there is no martial law or bloodshed in other places. The Chinese nation is a whole, and the Chinese nation is also a large collective composed of various provinces. Everyone and every region is an indispensable part.
