Emperor Kangxi's greatest achievement is mainly reflected in his martial arts, which has five major items:
It was the first martial art in Kangxi's life to eliminate the separatist regime and pacify the San Francisco rebellion from the 12th year of Kangxi (1673) to the 20th year of Kangxi (168 1).
Because the Manchu population is too small, in order to deal with the threats from Zheng Ming, Vietnam and Myanmar in the south, during the Shunzhi period, the four Hanwang were stationed in Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi and Yunnan respectively. Among them, Wu Sangui, the king of the day, had the greatest influence and went deep into Hunan and Sichuan. During the Kangxi period, the threat of San Francisco (Kong Youde, the king of Dingnan, Guangxi) to the Qing Dynasty surpassed that of Zheng Ming, Myanmar and Vietnam.
Kangxi originally wanted to solve the problem of San Francisco by appeasement, but Wu Sangui suddenly launched an uprising after 1673 promised to quit San Francisco. In fact, pacifying San Francisco is basically pacifying Wu Sangui rebellion, but when Wu Sangui was alive, the Qing Dynasty did not have any advantage in the war with him. However, after the death of Wu Sangui in 1678, the Qing dynasty bought and disintegrated Wu Sangui's original subordinates, and the Qing army was able to quickly put down the San Francisco rebellion.
After the Qing Dynasty put down the San Francisco rebellion, it swept away the separatist forces in the south and truly realized the rule of eighteen provinces in the Han Dynasty. This also laid a solid foundation for the later implementation of land reform and the Qing government to sweep away chiefs in southwest China.
In the 22nd year of Kangxi in Taiwan Province Province (1683), Shi Lang led the Qing army to cross the sea, which forced him to break away from the Zheng family on the island of Taiwan Province Province. Taiwan Province Province has been linked with the Central Plains since the Three Kingdoms period, and finally merged into the territory of the Central Plains Dynasty after a lapse of 1400 years. Although Zheng Chenggong seized Taiwan Province Island from Dutch colonists, only the Qing Dynasty ruled Taiwan Province Island in the Central Plains. The island of Taiwan Province Province became a part of China, which only started in the reign of Kangxi.
The Battle of jaxa to Determine the Northeast Border of China From the 24th year of Kangxi (1685) to the 27th year of Kangxi (1688), Emperor Kangxi sent the Qing army to recover jaxa occupied by Russia for four years. After the defeat, Russia had to sign the Treaty of Nebuchadnezzar Chu with the Qing Dynasty, which was the first demarcation treaty signed with foreign countries in the history of China. Although the Outer Xing 'an Mountains were lost in the late Qing Dynasty, the main population gathering areas in Northeast China are still preserved. The fundamental reason is that apart from the checks and balances among the great powers, Russia can't swallow the northeast of China, and the transition space won by the Qing Dynasty by the clear boundary demarcation of the Treaty of Nebuchadnezzar is undoubtedly an important factor.
From the 29th year of Kangxi (1690) to the 36th year of Kangxi (1697), Kangxi personally invaded Grdan in Junggar for three times, completely defeating the rebels in Grdan, limiting the influence of Junggar to today's Xinjiang, Qinghai and other places, and cutting off the last glimmer of hope for Mongolia to rise again. The sweeping of Grdan paved the way for the complete solution of Junggar in the late Qianlong period.
After this battle, the Qing government's control of Mongolian grassland reached its peak, and the Qing government took the opportunity to divide the boundaries of Mongolian princes at home and abroad, limiting their influence in a limited area, so that Mongolian princes could no longer threaten the Central Plains.
For the first time, the army of the Central Plains Dynasty went deep into the hinterland of Tibet. In the war to pacify Junggar's invasion of Tibet, the Central Plains Dynasty actually controlled Tibet for the first time, and the time was from 56 years (17 17) to 59 years (1720). This laid a solid foundation for the Qianlong dynasty to implement the golden urn lottery system, with the central government controlling the reincarnation of the living Buddha in Tibet and putting Tibet under the control of the central government.
Kangxi's great contribution to economy. Emperor Kangxi's most important economic measure was' never increasing taxes'.
In the fifty-first year of Kangxi (17 12), Kangxi officially issued a decree, taking the population in the fifty-first year of Kangxi (17 1 1) as the fixed number for collecting ding tax, and then "raising people will never increase taxes" to cancel the poll tax for new population. This move became the beginning of the implementation of Tan Dingmu system in Yongzheng Dynasty, and a series of subsequent measures by Emperor Kangxi also created a prerequisite for the implementation of Tan Dingmu in Yongzheng Dynasty.
In fact, it was a national policy formulated by Emperor Kangxi for the Qing Dynasty in the last decade of his rule. After Yong Zhengdi succeeded to the throne, he completed this national policy, realized the integration of officials and gentry, paid food, and doubled the tax revenue of the Qing Dynasty!
Thanks to Kangxi's system, China is still the largest country in the world.
In a word, Emperor Kangxi made great contributions to the historical process of China.
