Chapter 76 History
The only gain in Nanxiong was to buy a large bag of local specialty apricots, which were salt-baked and dried and were good snacks. Several women were able to eat them all day long and kept eating them.
"I heard that the people of the southern mountains are known for their hard work and hard work and good at climbing."
After passing Shixing County, I couldn't help but exclaim as I looked at the porter and servant carrying a bag and trekking on the mountain road in front of me. My skin was thick and dark, my bones were thick, and I looked thin and thin.
"They are actually... all of them are Northerners."
This is a wind-rolling flag with a certain sense of pride and strange meaning.
"Northern people?..."
I was stunned for a moment, and then he explained to me.
Of course, this northerner is not a true northerner, but refers to exiles in the Lingnan or the vast areas of Lingnan. It also accounts for a considerable proportion of the population base in the Southern Dynasties.
The main ones are farmers and bankrupt people who have lost their homes. Therefore, after arriving in Lingnan, they had no strengths and could only sell their labors from the dirty, hard and tiring low-level karma at the bottom of society, and start their struggle again;
Or they might simply sell their bodies to wealthy families as tenant owners, but they also have to face professional competition in foreign vassal territories with the economy of slave plantations as the main body.
Therefore, it is difficult to improve treatment and cannot compete with locals for limited upward channels. In addition to recruiting and joining the army and overseas development with a high mortality rate, most people can only hang out at the bottom of society for a long time.
Over time, it was also a unique social group formed by traditional natives in the Southern Dynasty. They were born in the Tang Dynasty, naturalized people and their descendants, and new and old slaves, and formed a unique social group - the Northern people.
Although there have been changes and decreases in the past dynasties, this group has always existed tenaciously with the continuous stream of Nantou people.
At the beginning of the Southern Dynasties' detention, these Nantou people played a huge role in the development of the nine seas and land maps of the Southern Dynasties. Countless people from generation to generation buried their bones in a foreign land, shedding their blood, sweat and tears in a tenacious struggle against the wilderness, snakes, insects, miasma and other harms.
With simple tools and the most coarse dietary conditions, we have overcome all obstacles to transform the unwelcome mountains and rivers into villages and towns with vast crowds and birds, and we have used artificial fields, pools, rivers and canals, and the wilderness of southern wilderness where beasts appear, snakes and insects are crisscrossing.
From the traditional Annan Protectorate to the Linyi, Shui, Lu Zhenla, Queen's Kingdom, Wendan Kingdom, and Zhunian Kingdom that were successively incorporated. Their pioneering footprints and figures were almost spread throughout the Indochina Peninsula to the Bay of Bengal near the southern Indian, turning the former overlord of the Southern Desert Piao Kingdom (the predecessor of ancient Myanmar) into a pure inland vassal state.
But on the other hand,
Because the continuous influx of a large population in the Northland has brought prosperity and cultural heritage to various industries, it has also caused various social problems to the Southern Dynasty's hinterland outside the ridge, and various unemployment and bankruptcy have also begun to appear. Therefore, various restrictions and selection measures were taken for the population of Beitou later.
For example, accept part of it according to your wealth and wealth, and accept part of it according to your knowledge and education level. In addition, it is a certain number of visas, mainly for strong labor and young women. As for others, they can only leave it to fate.
Therefore, the remaining Nantou people gathered more in the control area of the Wulu Zhidao Xingxing Department. Therefore, among the troops and garrisons of the Wulu Zhidao Xingxing Department, the military and civilians from Beitou background also accounted for a large proportion.
Well, after hearing this result, I felt a little uncomfortable. Not only did I stay in the North for a long time, I forgot the identity and habits of the Southern Dynasty. And it was also a little bit like that, the noble and cold investment immigration policies of rice sweet potatoes and the green card cannon fodder in later generations, a sense of reality.
Feng Juanqi then remembered that I was nominally a northerner from Nantou. I was only given the official position of the Southeast Guidance and Discipline Inspection Office and had the most basic rank, but I was no longer within the category of the four people of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce. I suddenly had a hint of embarrassment.
"Do you think you still need to care about the difference between the north and the south now?"
But I didn't care about revealing this paragraph.
"After passing Nanxiong Pass, it will be my heartland...
After returning to Lingnan, he seemed to have become more energetic and talkative.
"The country's name of this dynasty is named Daliang, but it is honored as the name of the Liang Duke hundreds of years ago to commemorate it."
"In fact, the emperor in this dynasty and the shogunate in power are descendants of Liang Gong, but their family origins are different."
After hearing this, some things in my memory began to revive. For example, as the eldest son of the Eight Leaf clan, I have also learned about some of the beginning and end of the establishment of the Southern Dynasty and came into contact with some anecdotes that were only circulated in small circles.
The origin of the establishment of the Southern Dynasty can be traced back to the Yiwei Rebellion, but the root of the Yiwei Rebellion was that after Liang Gong retired, he calmed down the world for peace and peace. The ending of the beginning and ending with each other was already laid.
Because he left behind a giant called the Dragon Martial Arts system, he continued to maintain and flood the political life of the monarchs and ministers of the Tang Dynasty. This was the martial arts group that he developed with Emperor Xuanzong to gather the defeated troops and eventually developed, which was a powerful force and trembled the martial arts group in the country.
Since the Western Xia, Nanhai and Liang family in Gyeonggi, Rong Ruo, the only ancestor of the Liang family in Gyeonggi, was established as a privy minister. After the descendants of the Liang family in Gyeonggi, there are a few outstanding figures.
As the spiritual leader of overseas vassals and the chief family in the Longwu Army Group, which was already huge and irreducible, it suppressed several generations of emperors, and even intentionally or unintentionally intervened and influenced the replacement of the throne.
Because the resources left by our ancestors are too good, there are always some descendants who are talented and not stable enough, and then they are bound by interest groups in various ways and become powerful officials who infringe on the imperial power.
However, everything always has its prosperity and decline. The Liang family's proficiency in the court was not impeccable. The cyclical law of the rise and fall of the dynasty also accumulated enough enemies and opponents for them. Especially as the powerful clan who was in power in essence, it could easily become the primary target of various hatreds.
As a result, during the Yiwei period, because the Emperor Wenzong, who was a strong young man, did not die suddenly because he took medicine and pills, and the game and compromise of the sudden throne was suddenly cut off, he accidentally gave birth to a second-tier or crazy emperor. He thought that he could resurrect the Liang family, who was controlling the government, by relying on the big players to revive ZTE.
Because he did not trust most of the army in the capital, Zhang Xun, one of the Privy Councilors, secretly formed other forces, introduced foreign troops, and massacred powerful ministers and promoted their clans. The result was the complete collapse of the authority and order of the court.
Not only were the Beijing army trapped in various chaos and internal strife, but even the foreign army also had the Zhenjun and the Lun garrison army from Shandong, Shanxi, Longyou, Hexi, Beiyuan, Yunzhong, Jiannan and other foreign troops. Because of the origin of the Dragon Martial Arts, the rabbit died and the fox was sad. They also raised the banner of clearing the lord and marched towards Chang'an.
It was not until the overseas allied forces led by the Lingnan roads that invaded the scattered troops under the banner of promoting troops and clearing the king's side that the chaos of foreign troops taking turns to Beijing to fight for soy sauce. Then the emperor ran northwest to hunt north, and returned with the help of the border army and the town system.
One side protects the emperor, and the other side wants to kill the treacherous party. Both sides are under the banner of the orthodox origin of the Dragon Martial Army. Therefore, it is known in history as the Dragon Martial War, or the Battle of the East Army and the West Party.
Taking the Kyoto Liang family as the fuse, the South China Sea princes, which intensified conflicts with the central dynasty, formed a coalition revenge war. Then, the princes and towns from the northern grasslands and the northwest region still supported the orthodox Li Tang Dynasty, and then in the tug-of-war, they turned the rich pass into white land.
Then after the overseas vassal coalition forces captured Chang'an, they burned all over and scattered the gangs. The overseas franchises that disbanded each occupied a piece of land in the vast coastal areas and the vast areas south of the Huai River, and played a long proxy war of alliances and ties.
Having said that, the establishment of the Southern Dynasty was due to years of management and background. The Liang clan in the Gyeonggi was not completely cut off, and there were still male members who escaped.
Therefore, as the greatest powerful faction and the head of the overseas vassals, the contemporary head of the Liang clan in the Nanhai, made an amazing decision. He refused all parties' persuasion and contributions, helped and supported and supported the only survivor of the Liang clan in the capital. He ascended the throne as the new emperor in Guangzhou, and was named Daliang. In the first year of Yongjia, he was known as the Zhengding Dynasty, known in history as the Southern Dynasties, Nanliang and Lingliang.
Then formed a coalition to fight for the Northern Expedition.
Emperor Zhengding, the survivor of the Yiwei Incident and the only male living in the capital Liang family, came to the Lingnan roads that had been controlled by the Nanhai Governor's Office.
Naturally, he became the leader of the Northern Expedition of the Princes. He relied on the power of a person and was in a coalition with mixed quality and chaotic hearts. He was studded, focused on his heart and attracted people's hearts. From a group of powerful princes, he pulled out his own team out of nothing, and formed the famous Dragon Guard and the General Marshal's Mansion of the World, which was like a small court.
It is based on the statement of standard official textbooks approved by the Filipino Affairs Council.
This military operation, known as the Yongkang Northern Expedition, greatly hit the corrupt Tang regime, and was almost unstoppable. The coalition forces had occupied Chang'an, Xijing. The military towns along the way expressed their submission and hostages. Seeing that the reign was almost successful, the Liang family in the Nanhai, which was the biggest backing of the Northern Expedition, had a disharmonious voice, and all kinds of food and supplies and support began to be ineffective.
Regarding where to go next, the coalition forces are becoming increasingly different. Those who advocate continuing to advance westward, those who advocate operating locally, those who advocate going north to Gubian, and those who advocate eastward expedition and restoration of the Central Plains, hundreds of thousands of coalition forces of the South China Sea have shown a splitting trend due to their respective interests and claims.
The matter further lost control. Because of dissatisfaction with the division of expected interests and territory, he indulged his subordinates in burning, killing, looting, and losing people's hearts. The military and civilians who had expectations for the reform of the era were all disunited, but Emperor Zhengding could only severely punish the relevant military commanders in form symbolically.
Emperor Zhengding, who ran around to maintain the unification of the coalition forces, suddenly died suddenly in the army. The coalition forces were in chaos and suspicious, but they pointed at each other and attacked and killed each other.
After a month wasted, when the vanguard of the Northwest King Army entered Guanzhong, he faced a group of coalition forces with great energy and injuries. The camp was full of injuries and everyone was thinking of returning home. Many of the princes' troops also gave up and burned and plundered themselves.
The dragons had no leader, and each was dissatisfied with the public. They had no intention of consolidating their existing territory and forces, so they had to act on their own and fight for the return. In the end, the military towns and cities along the way turned against each other.
In the case of pursuing soldiers in front and intercepting the enemy, it is called the Great Retreat of Wu and Ji, and becomes a terrible road to death. During the thousands of miles from Guan to Jinghu, only a few companies were able to return to Lingnan in an established manner.
The coalition forces, known as the 200,000 Northern Expedition, have been less than two or three out of ten.
Another consequence of this crushing defeat was that almost every household lost a generation of children to the South China Sea princes were very secretive about this. Although they called for the Northern Expedition, there were few responders.
On the other hand, out of the painful lessons of deep inland combat, they prefer to fight in areas that are familiar to them, near coasts and rivers, and then achieve their goals and interests through control and support, agents of local regional forces.
Although the Nanhai Liang clan army was severely punished in name and the first to abandon dozens of troops to retreat, the damage caused by the Nanhai Liang clan's appeal and prestige was immeasurable.
When they raised their troops to fight against the enemy outside the ridge again, only some small and medium-sized lords and vassal forces who were deeply in harboring the Liang family, or were politically and economically subordinate and dependent, had to make corresponding gestures.
Liang Yuanping, the head of the family who supported the Northern Expedition and was known as the Duke of the State, died of depression. A fierce power struggle occurred within the Liang family. There are also rumors that this is the price of betraying and betraying Emperor Zhengding.
The new capital Guangzhou is full of wind and crane meetings. The wealthy and powerful families rushed to sea to go to sea, and even to the Yuanfan of Annan. There are also suggestions to move the capital to Qiongzhou, the hinterland of the Liang family's nest in the south sea, on the other side.
However, the Liang family was the largest vassal in the South China Sea after all, and the number of talents emerged for many years. The civil strife did not last long and was eliminated by the division from Annan.
The successor head of the family, Liang Chengye, the general of the first shogunate, became a great man of a generation. Not only did he consolidate the basic foundation of the Lingnan roads with dispersed hearts, but he also personally led the Xinmu army to push the front line back to the front line of Fujian-centered two lakes, Jiangxi-Jinghu, Badong-Shu.
Although it was quickly lost, the land of Lingnan was also preserved. There was no war outside the Lingnan again. Later generations rely on the important places he guarded for Lingbei and slowly mapped north. After long-term infiltration and invasion, the current situation of the Five Routes Recruitment and Dispute Department was established.
Of course, there were conspiracy theories circulating in later generations that the so-called final failure of Yongjia's great advance was the establishment of the original shogunate Liang family as the master and used the knife to kill people. This not only reduced the radical factions in the family, but also consumed the power and resources that the Haifa princes gathered for generations, forcing them to bow their heads and handed over relatively independent military powers, including military conquest, financial and criminal titles, and became part of the relatively stable shogunate system.
This conspiracy theory once had a very strong market, and became the origin of many opposition forces in history such as the so-called centralized monarchs, or the retro feudal reformists, and even the commander-in-chief, Zhengdinghui and other political forces.
The Lingnan court, dominated by the Liang clan in the Nanhai Sea, was rebuilt. In order to commemorate the Zhengding Emperor who led the Northern Expedition, he elected his son to be the new king and established a set of regents of the Xu monarch shogunate, which has been eleven generations and has a history of more than a hundred years.
