It can be said that there are many reasons for the failure of the Fangla uprising, and the main reason is still himself. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Fang La started with Manichaeism, and at the time of the uprising, he relied on the persecution of the southern people by Huashigang, and the two eventually merged together, which inevitably caused conflict.

Thus, in developing the rebel army, Fang La was largely forcing the people to join Manichaeism.

The rebels had no bows, arrows, or armor, but only instigated each other with the secret and unpredictable deeds of ghosts and gods, burning houses, plundering gold and silk, and luring good people to join the ranks. People were content with peace, did not know the military revolution, and when they heard the sound of the golden drum, they were bound to obey orders, and tens of thousands of people joined the rebel army in less than ten days.

In this rebel army, the Manichaeans became the backbone of the force, and the others were just fishing in troubled waters, and it was difficult for them to form a joint force.

Moreover, Fang La can't trust outsiders, and in most cases, he is employing nepotism. Prime Minister Fang Fei, General Fang Qifo, Prince Fang Shu, Second Prince Fang Hao, etc., they are all members of the Fang family, and they all occupy important positions, so they play a vital role in the development of the situation. However, they are not able to control the overall situation, and even lack the ability to manage and organize, which has caused the chaos and disorder of the ranks of the rebel army.

Another point is that Fang La was overly optimistic about the situation, underestimated the difficulties, and even mistakenly adopted passive and stubborn countermeasures militarily, and did not take advantage of the excellent situation that had developed in the whole country to adopt the "direct Jinling" proposed by General Lu, the general of the righteous army...... Establish the foundation first, and then discuss the strategy of attacking". Therefore, when the Song army occupied the Yangtze River arteries in Jinling and Zhenjiang, the rebel army was in a passive position. This is also the ultimate weakness of the peasant rebels, who only see the immediate but do not think about the long term, and belong to the category of short-sightedness.

The most critical point is actually that the timing of the Fangla uprising was wrong. Although the Song Dynasty was completely decayed, Zhao Ji was also mediocre and incompetent, and even Hua Shigang aroused huge public anger, but this was not fatal for the Song Dynasty, which had always been relatively peaceful.

Zhao Ji is mediocre but not brutal, and the court is still rotten and can operate normally, even Hua Shigang is also attributed to Zhu Mian personally. Therefore, when the Fangla uprising was launched, Zhao Ji immediately issued an edict of guilt, and at the same time revoked the Suzhou and Hangzhou Bureaus, suspended the operation of Huashigang, and deposed the official positions of Zhu Mian's father and son, which to a certain extent took back the hearts of the people.

Of course, Fang La's failure is also related to Gao Feng's small actions, but it doesn't have much to do with it.

The entire process of Fang La's uprising is actually similar to history, and the biggest difference is the participation of Wu Jue and Ding Bao.

Although these two people helped Fang La to gather the south and occupy several state capitals at the same time, they only did so for the development of their own forces, so how could they care about Fang La?

However, Gao Feng still has another kind of affection for Fang La. This was the largest peasant uprising of the Song Dynasty, although it was doomed to failure, but its significance was significant, especially the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty had a great deal to do with it, so Gao Feng did not want to mix too many of his own factors in the uprising.

His idea was very simple, neither kill the Fang family nor rescue them, they had better follow the trajectory of history, so that everyone could accept it.

In fact, Gao Feng had wandered for a long time between saving and not saving Fang La, and even if he left the note for Fang La, he did it only because Fang La did not accept it, which was just a way to return the favor to Ding Bao.

Fang La is different from Song Jiang. After appeasing Song Jiang, he can still control and use him, at least he will not be above Gao Feng's head, but it is difficult to say if he rescues Fang La, and even Gao Feng himself can't say how to deal with it.

Fang La claims to be a holy prince, no different from the emperor, you dare to use such a person as a subordinate? It's you who use him as a subordinate, that's not to save a heavenly king Lao Tzu back! This kind of thing will not be done until you are stupid.

Therefore, even if he showed Fang La a clear way, he was actually asked to go to Liuqiu, where he was far away from the peak of the base, whether he could grow or not was up to him, and Gao Feng didn't want to have anything to do with him.

Of course, Fang La was finally arrested as in history, and Gao Feng also got a large number of personnel and materials as he wished, and this result was still very satisfactory to Gao Feng.

In August, Fang La was about to be beheaded in Bianjing, and the rest of the troops were also surrounded and suppressed by the Song army, and it was believed that it would not take long to wipe them all out.

At this point, the two largest uprisings, Fang La and Song Jiang, were eliminated in the third year of Xuanhe, and the matter of Xuanhe discord seemed to have taken a turn for the better.

When the thieves were eliminated and the situation improved, His Majesty the Emperor was naturally happy, and in addition to rewarding meritorious deeds and rewarding meritorious heroes, he also allowed all the requests made by them.

Tong Guan moved to the Taishi, changed his title to the Duke of Chu, and at the same time replaced Wang Huang as the privy envoy, and at this time the matter of Song and Jin jointly cutting Liao was imminent, Tong Guan immediately waved his army north to attack the land of Yanshan.

It is worth mentioning here that Cai You, who will be Tong Guan's deputy, will go on the expedition together.

The great hero Gao Feng naturally can't run the reward, and he can't look down on some gold and silver treasures, so the imperial court issued an edict, Ren Gao Feng is the deputy commander of the Ma Army, in charge of the official affairs of the Jingdong East Road Pacification Division, Zhiqing Prefecture Affairs, and the official residence Wupin, in addition, an official position was specially set up for the peak, and the Jingdong two road development envoys.

This time the official position is not simple. The pacification envoy and the Zhiqing Prefecture remain unchanged, this is the real power, and there is no need to change, it is not simply the deputy commander of the Ma Army and the development envoy of Jingdong Road.

Jingdong Road includes Jingdong East Road, where Qingzhou is located, and Jingdong West Road, where Zhangye's Yingtianfu is located, which covers most of the Shandong Peninsula and Huaibei area, and the area is very broad.

By the development of the two roads by the high peak, this is to let him go all out to develop the economy of the two roads, which not only shows that the imperial court has tasted the sweetness from the development pilot of Feng' County, but also wants to let the development policy lead to the whole country as soon as possible.

In fact, according to the idea of the imperial court, it was to be fully rolled out throughout the country, but due to the opposition of the peak, it was tentatively planned to develop first in the two roads, and then gradually spread out.

This is also for the sake of prudence, because Gao Feng knows that with the current official concept and scientific and technological level, it is impossible to go all out, and if it is not done well, it will get a deformed development model, which is to mislead the country and the people.

There are many advantages to two ways at the same time. The pilot was originally carried out on Jingxi Road, and Zhang Ye, Gu Zheng, Yang Bangyi, Qiu Yi and others were all on Jingxi Road, so Jingxi Road has a very thick development background. Gao Feng came to Jingdong East Road to take up a post, which naturally should also be listed as the focus of development, so the two roads go hand in hand, which will complement each other and promote each other.
