However, the section of "Sino-Hungarian War" was deleted from the seventh grade history textbook revised two years ago, and Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, the greatest heroes who fought against Huns, withdrew from the history textbook. The chapter "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty consolidated the unified dynasty" is still retained, which is a bit difficult to understand. It is always incomplete not to talk about Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty and his unified dynasty, and not to talk about his battle with Xiongnu.
As for why the relevant contents about Wei Qing and Huo Qubing were deleted, we may be able to see the clue from a passage by Yu Guiyuan, one of the editors of this textbook. Scientifically analyzing and treating the national wars in the history of China from the viewpoint of historical materialism is a civil war between nationalities, a contradiction between brothers and a struggle at home. Based on this view, we only call outstanding people who oppose foreign aggression, such as Qi Jiguang and Zheng Chenggong, national heroes. For outstanding figures like Yue Fei and Wen Tianxiang, although we are sure of their position and role in opposing national plunder and oppression, we do not call them national heroes. ?
In other words, what did they resist? Foreign? , has been integrated into 56 ethnic groups in China. From now on, the war against foreign invasion in those days has become an internal war between one country and two nationalities. Therefore, over-praising people like Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and Yue Fei is not conducive to national unity. So it is inappropriate to call them national heroes.
Stories of heroes such as Wei Qing, Huo Qubing and Yue Fei have been deeply rooted in people's hearts. The foreigners they fought in those years have now integrated into the Chinese nation, but under the historical conditions at that time, this is a war related to the survival of the nation. Wei Qing and Huo Qubing risked their lives to defend the national living space, sacrificing their youth and lives. Under the historical conditions at that time, if it were not for them, the Han people might be led by the neck and the Han nation might be devastated. They succeeded? Han? This word was deeply injected into the blood of our nation until it became the name of our nation. This is sabotage? National unity? ? In those days, without their resistance, ethnic minorities ruled the Han nationality. Is this a national integration?
History always has its limitations. Just like today's world, countries are divided and combined, cooperation is more than competition, and the original enemies have become partners. Should we erase those wars from history textbooks? Because it will undermine the unity between countries? Take history as a mirror, face the future, and history cannot be changed! Qi Jiguang and Zheng Chenggong are national heroes who fought against foreign enemies. Wei Qing and Huo Qubing gave their lives for the survival and development of the Han nationality. Aren't they our national heroes?
Their stories have been handed down to this day and have existed in history textbooks for decades. What can undermine national unity? Moreover, in today's highly integrated ethnic groups, some ethnic groups at that time have even disappeared in the long river of history, or the blood of ethnic groups has been integrated into a part of China. According to this truth, the history of Wei Qing, Huo Qubing, Yue Fei and Wen Tianxiang should be deleted for the sake of national unity, and the history of World War II should be deleted for the sake of world unity?
Fortunately, the voice of netizens attracted the attention of People's Education Publishing House, and gave a related reply: Regarding the learning content of Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, the original history textbook was arranged in junior high school, and the new history textbook was arranged in senior high school, specifically in the first volume of senior one? Consolidation of a unified country in the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty? One class is devoted to teaching.
When learning advanced cultural knowledge, we should not forget those predecessors and heroes who used their bodies to safeguard national security. They are the backbone of our nation and should be remembered, not forgotten in the long river of history. Think about it, what a sad thing it would be if later students didn't know that such a hero had appeared in the history of China!
