Historical allusions of khufu's riding and shooting

The historical allusions of Khufu's riding and shooting are as follows:

"Khufu Riding and Shooting" refers to the story that King Wuling of Zhao promoted Khufu and coached "Riding and Shooting" for the sake of the country's strength in the Warring States Period, which shows the image of King Wuling of Zhao paying attention to practicality and being brave in reform.

According to the Warring States Policy Zhao Ce II, "Today I (Zhao Haoqi Wuling) will ride and shoot Khufu to teach the people." Zhao, Volume 43 of Historical Records, also recorded: "In the first month of the nineteenth year, the imperial court believed in the palace, called fat to discuss the world, and finished on the fifth day, so it was ordered to change the military system and learn to ride and shoot." In other words, King Wuling of Zhao called on Fei Yi to discuss the world. Five days later, he decided to promote Khufu, coach riding and shooting, and encourage reform.

At that time, the so-called "Khufu" refers to the short-sleeved narrow clothes similar to the costumes of Rongdi in the northwest, which is very different from the long-sleeved undressing Dai Bo of Huaxia people in the Central Plains, so it is commonly known as "Khufu"; "Riding and shooting" refers to the "shooting horses" (archery on horseback) of the surrounding nomadic tribes, which is different from the traditional "step shooting" (archery on foot) in the Central Plains.

Since then, the formal military uniform of the army's wide-sleeved long clothes has gradually improved into the later short-sleeved narrow clothes equipment. Thus, it conforms to the development trend of war mode from "stepping war" to "riding war" and lays the foundation for the stability and development of the country.

Influence on national integration

The implementation of Zhao Wuling's "Khufu Riding and Shooting" has promoted the economic and cultural exchanges between various regions, especially the Han nationality in the Central Plains and the border ethnic minorities. Han people wear Hu people's clothes because Hu people's clothes are convenient for work, and Hu people wear Han people's clothes because they are elegant. "Hufu Riding and Shooting" led to the dress integration of Huaxia people in the Central Plains and nomadic people in the north, and also shortened the psychological difference between Hu and Han between Zhao and Hu.

This weakened China people's contempt for Hu people, strengthened Hu people's refuge psychology for China people, shortened their psychological distance, laid the foundation for the clothing integration of China people in the Central Plains and northern nomadic people, further promoted national integration, and promoted the formation of national unity in Qin and Han Dynasties.
