The existence of emphasizing literature over military force is different from each other

Zhao Guangyi's holy decree is also because Wang Xu, this person is a civil servant, and Yang Ye is a military general, and this military general's right is not at all in the Great Song Dynasty, and it is not at all, but the Great Song Emperor is not at ease with the military generals, since the establishment of the Song Dynasty, the military ministers are higher than the military generals, and the rights of the military generals in the Great Song Dynasty can be said to have been greatly restricted, or it can be said that it is caused by too many internal factors.

Why did the Great Song Dynasty emphasize literature and ignore military force, and the root cause of it is also because of 1. Reasons: 1, Song Taizu realized that the reason for the war since the end of the Tang Dynasty was the melee of the military dictatorship and warlords, so he believed that only Yanwu Xiuwen was the way to calm down and the way to eternity.

2. Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty, was originally the commander of the forbidden army of the Later Zhou Dynasty, and relied on the support of his subordinate generals to launch the Chen Qiaoyi Mutiny, seize the power of the Later Zhou Dynasty, and establish the Song Dynasty. Because he seized the throne by force, coupled with the Five Dynasties period, there were many cases of military generals seizing power, so he was particularly afraid that the generals who held military power under his subordinates would follow suit (and also left a mark in history with "a glass of wine to release military power"), distrust military generals, emphasize literature and light military force, suppress military generals, and prevent military generals from usurping the throne. Although this ensured the stability of the royal power, it also brought about a situation in which the army did not know the generals and the generals, which had adverse consequences for the fight against Liao, Jin and other strong enemies in the north.

2. The pros and cons of the Song Dynasty's "emphasis on literature and light on military force":

Pro: It limited the power of the warriors and even the entire bureaucratic system, and militarily divided the forbidden army, the strong and weak branch of the central court to maintain absolute military superiority; Set up the Privy Council and the Three Ya, the Privy Council is in charge of military registration, documents, and lists, the Sanya is in charge of the training and command of the army, and the power to transfer troops is in the emperor's military talisman; In the local bureaucratic system, the judicial, administrative, financial, and military affairs are separated, and the judiciary has three departments: the magistrate and the magistrate are sentenced, the administration has the county prefect, and the finance department has three departments. As a result, the two songs have always been stable internally.

Disadvantages: too many officials and too many soldiers (the Song Dynasty recruited soldiers for fear of rebellion and where there was a famine, and the ruffians and hooligans of the unstable elements were also recruited as soldiers, and the young and middle-aged people and hooligans could not rebel if they became soldiers); If the decentralization is too detailed, the efficiency of things will go down; The literati knew the soldiers, which led to a series of people who were surrounded by people to send reinforcements and desperately helped people to call for reinforcements, second-force generals who fell into the scheme and scolded their opponents for being immoral, and there were also generals who reported to the sky without military merits, which became one of the main reasons for repeated defeats in foreign wars. The power of the civil servants of the Great Song Dynasty was also higher than that of the military generals, and the Song Dynasty implemented the national policy of "advocating literature and suppressing martial arts".

The reason for Chongwen is that the Northern Song Dynasty has just been established, and the ruling class urgently needs a large number of talents to consolidate its rule and restore and develop production. The reason for suppressing the military force was to prevent the Northern Song Dynasty from dying in a hurry like the Five Dynasties, so that the country could continue for a long time. In the early years of the founding of the Northern Song Dynasty, the country was ruined, the economy was withering, and the country was still in division and had not yet achieved reunification. Due to the need to strengthen and consolidate the new political power, a large number of talents were urgently needed to enrich the ruling system at all levels, and the vast number of literati and doctors became the best choice, and Chongwen was born. From 907 A.D. Zhu Wen destroyed the Tang Dynasty and established the Later Liang Dynasty, to 960 A.D. Zhao Kuangyin established the Northern Song Dynasty, this short period of more than 50 years, is the country is divided, the feudal towns are divided and the five dynasties of the Ten Kingdoms are divided, the Yellow River Basin has established the Later Liang, the Later Tang, the Later Jin, the Later Han, and the Later Five dynasties. In the southern and northern Shanxi regions, there are also ten local governments. Historically, they are collectively known as the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. After Zhou Shizong Chai Rong ascended the throne, he actively developed production, strengthened national strength, and made positive preparations for the unification of the whole country in the future. And Zhao Kuangyin launched the Chenqiao Mutiny and began to unify the whole country, which is a matter of course, and the general trend is inevitable. The powerful Tang Dynasty perished in the secession of feudal towns, while the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms were the continuation and development of the secession of feudal towns in the late Tang Dynasty. In order to change the situation of "Fang Zhen is too heavy, the monarch is weak and the minister is strong" since the end of the Tang Dynasty and the fifth dynasty. Soon after Zhao Kuangyin, Taizu of the Song Dynasty, took the suggestion of Prime Minister Zhao Pu and formulated the policy of "seizing his power a little, controlling his money valley, and collecting his elite soldiers, so that the world will be at peace". Strengthen the centralization of power from the political, economic, and military aspects, weaken the power of military generals, and thus establish the national policy of "respecting literature and suppressing military force". Why did the literati of the Song Dynasty have a higher status than the military generals?

The establishment of every dynasty will be accompanied by every change of regime, which is also inevitable. In order to be able to discard some of the bad measures of the previous rulers, the new rulers will establish themselves some more perfect institutions that are conducive to their own rule. In each dynasty, there was a preference for civil rule or military rule, depending on the specific measures of the ruler at that time. It was also an important thing that the rulers of the time had to do in order to consolidate their power. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that Wen can govern the country, and Wu can Anbang. However, there are also some people who use military rule to govern their dynasty well. This was also caused by some of the policies of the rulers of the time, which also shows the importance of some of the policies of the rulers at that time.

According to historical understanding, after Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, he made more use of force to govern the country. Then unify the text, unify the weights and measures. It can also be regarded as for better management of the country. However, the editor felt that Qin Shi Huang paid more attention to governing the country by force, but because he used force to govern the country, it eventually led to failure. In fact, this is also some of his improper strategies, which led to the final result.

There was a monarch in history who was born as a military general, but then after he became the emperor, he did not attach importance to military generals, but reused civil ministers. Why? Because as a person who was born as a military general, he should pay more attention to military generals. But he didn't, but paid attention to the last minister. But it was precisely because of her that his political situation was stabilized and he was able to go down in history. He is Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin.

Speaking of Zhao Kuangyin, I believe everyone knows very well that he was added to the yellow robe by his subordinates and became the emperor. It can be said that his becoming emperor can be regarded as a trend of the times. Zhao Kuangyin, who was a military general in the early stage, was born as a general, so he knows more about some of the psychological activities of military generals. But what was the reason why he later reused the civil minister Zhao Pu instead of the civil and military generals?

After Zhao Kuangyin became the emperor at that time, he was very worried that he would be usurped by seeking power. So under such worries, Zhao Kuangyin and Zhao Pu jointly mutinied. According to historical records, this event was the release of military power with a glass of wine. The release of military power by a glass of wine promoted the stability of Zhao Guangyin's political situation, and also made a significant contribution to the stability and prosperity of the later Song Dynasty.

And now Zhao Kuangyin is also evaluated because of two things, the first is because of the Chen Qiao Mutiny, which led to Zhao Kuangyin's ascension to the throne, and the second is because Zhao Kuangyin remembered one of the incidents of releasing military power with a glass of wine, both of which strengthened the stability of Zhao Kuangyin's position. Because Zhao Kuangyin was worried that his generals would not be like him, Zhao Kuangyin did not reuse military generals at that time, but reused Wenchen. Then the entire Song Dynasty was also directly caused by the influence of Zhao Kuangyin that many generals were not reused. In the Song Dynasty, since ancient times, it has been the reuse of Wenchen, which has a lot to do with Zhao Kuangyin's cup of wine and military power at that time. At that time, Zhao Kuangyin's cup of wine released military power to improve the centralized power system, which was recognized by many people at that time and in later generations. This is also the reason for history, and now his brother is also able to do this, and it is also a great check and balance on the system he implements, which can also show that his national policy is to stick to the bones, what will happen within the Song Dynasty? I'm afraid only he can clearly understand?
