It symbolizes the indestructible great will and strength of the Chinese nation! Is the pride of the Chinese nation! It is also the pride of mankind!
Qin Shihuang used nearly one million laborers to build the Great Wall, accounting for 1/20 of the country's total population at that time.
The Great Wall starts from Jiayuguan in the west and ends at Shanhaiguan in the east, with a total length of 6.35 million meters. Like a dragon, it is a great pioneering work of mankind to cross mountains, Gobi, grasslands and mountains.
The Great Wall is a defensive wall. To some extent, it protected ancient China. Protect farming people from nomadic people. It played a certain defensive role at that time.
But everything has two sides.
Kangxi said: emperors rule the world by their own will, not simply relying on obstacles. The only way to defend the country is to let the people stay in Xiu De, and the people will be happy about it, then the country will win and the border will consolidate itself.
Under the historical conditions at that time, the main fundamental reason for building the Great Wall was to prevent the invasion and plunder of nomadic people. From the perspective of war, it is also in a passive defense.
Without the Great Wall and reliable city walls, passive defense may become active attack.
The speed of nomadic people may be absorbed by farming people and become their own strength.
Just like the theory of Yin and Yang, from Yin to Yang and from Yang to Yin, everything is developing and changing, not to mention intelligent human beings.
So I can't say anything. In the TV series, the Eighth Route Army went from weak to strong, from being surrounded to taking the initiative to attack, and finally eliminated the Japanese devils and drove away the invaders. Attack may be the best defense.
Therefore, in the history of China, if there were no Great Wall, perhaps the territory of China would be bigger and the Chinese nation would be stronger!
Just like doing business and running a factory now. The greater your pressure, the greater your motivation. This is true for a person, an enterprise and a country. When you have an opponent, the stronger your opponent is, the stronger you will try to become! Once you feel nothing to rely on, nothing to rely on, maybe you can give full play to your wisdom and strength and become stronger than your opponent.
