Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty wrote a letter to himself for his crimes in his later years. What did he regret?

The essence of the infighting of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is the change of his general plan of governing the country. He said that "violence should be banned, taxes should be stopped and agriculture should be strengthened", mainly because the movement before confession affected people's livelihood and efforts should be made to develop agriculture. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was suspicious in his later years and was not as clever as he was when he was young. Only Jiang Chong and other officials are around him. So after the disaster of witchcraft, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent a letter of apology to show his attitude. Next, I will talk about the main contents of the imperial edict of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty from the following aspects.

The first aspect is people's livelihood, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty knew the impact of long-term campaigns on people's livelihood. Fighting all the year round requires people to leave their homes, their wives and children to be soldiers, and people to support the construction of beacon towers and city walls. Once the people leave home and lose their main labor force, the land at home will also face the situation of no cultivation, leading to food shortage, which will affect people's livelihood.

The second aspect is the military. Li Guangli surrendered to the Huns, which made Emperor Wudi realize that the army was distracted. Li Guangli, the general of the Second Division, predicted several divinations for him before he was sent by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, all of which were very good. It turned out to be counterproductive. Li Guangli also surrendered to the Huns, and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties. Although the perennial war made Emperor Wudi famous, the people were miserable. This made Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty determined to cultivate self-cultivation and improve interest.

The third aspect is the economy. The Long March movement consumed a lot of national treasury, and the ancient emphasis on agriculture and suppression of commerce was not conducive to economic development. Because the national treasury is empty all the year round, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty asked Sang Hongyang to manage his finances, he not only monopolized salt and iron, but also sold officials and titles, and his sentence could be reduced with money. It made a lot of money for the Han dynasty in a short time, but it also hurt the long-term interests and the interests of businessmen and bureaucrats.

It seems that the guilt of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty is a summary of his first half life. It is really because of the summative imperial edict of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that he changed his strategy and had time to breathe and recover his national strength. The above is my opinion on this matter, and I hope to adopt it.
