Chapter 56 The general trend of the world
Li Yu was suddenly shocked. Did Li Jing start to cultivate himself?
To be honest, he was not uninterested in the throne, otherwise he would not hesitate when Li Jingchang took him to Song Qiqiu's house that day.
If you are interested, it does not mean you are going to join the battle now.
On the contrary, he couldn't hide. After all, he had no soldiers and money at hand, so he could only follow the Buddhist path of fighting for the throne. Now he jumped out, I'm afraid he would really go to the west right away...
He did two things when he was bored on the sickbed these days. One was that although he was not really enchanting, he had explored Yingxue all over her body and had reached the point of being familiar with her;
Later, Yingxue saw that An Lushan's claws were stretched out and she didn't dodge her. She occasionally looked a little charming in her eyes. She also hoped that Li Yu would recover soon. Li Yu took the opportunity to tempt her and wanted to lie to her for some verbal talk. As a result, her face turned pale and said that it was not that I refused to obey, but a drop of semen and ten drops of blood. Liulang recovered the next day, and he would do whatever he wanted. Now he must endure...
Li Yu was so angry that he scolded the Chinese medicine for harming people. If he really calculated this ratio, he would probably have become a person in his previous life...
Secondly, I read the history of the Southern Tang that I knew in my previous life. The political, economic and cultural aspects of the Southern Tang Dynasty were actually quite good. It was far ahead of other countries among the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. At least Li Jing and his third and fourth brothers were brothers and respectful on the surface. Compared with the younger brothers in other countries, they were much better than those in other countries where their brothers killed their brothers, nephews killed their uncles, and sons killed their fathers. With political stability, the economy and culture were naturally developed.
The Southern Tang Dynasty had a considerable geographical advantage. At present, the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Later Han Dynasty in the north basically used the Huai River as the boundary line, occupying all the Anhui and Jiangxi in later generations, most of Jiangsu, eastern Hubei and western Fujian, second only to the Later Zhou Dynasty, and it was the economic center at this time. The development of agriculture, handicrafts and commerce were all among the forefront;
The surrounding countries are not opponents one-on-one. The old enemy of Wu Yue on the right occupied southern Jiangsu, and the entire Zhejiang and Fuzhou area. The Fujian Kingdom under Wu Yue had long been destroyed. The original territory was one-third, and the Ma Chu on the right was quite large, but if it weren't for the complex terrain.
Today, the southern part of Guangl East and Guangl West are the territory of the Southern Han Kingdom. Not to mention that this regime has no sense of existence in Chinese history, but the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms basically belong to no one to care about, but the Southern Han Emperor was a person who could not be missed in the history of China's administrative history or bureaucracy.
Emperor Hui of Southern Han Liu Chu felt that the bureaucrats in the court were too selfish and only cared about the small family and ignored everyone. He had an idea and issued an imperial decree, "I want to be a high-ranking official, and I will be castrated by myself!" Because without Ding Ding, there would be no descendants, so I had to devote myself to the country.
For a time, in the court, all the six ministries were filled with female voices, and the two words "官网" and "官网" were officially used, and the number of eunuchs reached 20,000...
It doesn't seem to be too many, but at this time the population of Southern Han was only around one million, including the Hidden or Savage, at most no more than two million...
The proportion of eunuchs is one percent.
For comparison, the Ming Dynasty eunuchs claimed to be 100,000, but the Ming Dynasty's population was between 100 million and 200 million. Calculated at the intermediate value of 1050 million, the proportion of eunuchs was one thousand five hundred.
What's more, this one hundred thousand is obviously overestimated...
Compared with the Southern Han Dynasty, the Southern Tang Dynasty is simply a paradise!
At least the ministers in the court thought so.
As for Nanping, Nanzhao, Houshu and other things, their presence is not much different from that of the Southern Han Dynasty...
The north is still the world of the Later Han Dynasty, but he knew that his crude historical knowledge was not long before Guo Wei established the Later Zhou Dynasty. Although Guo Wei and Chai Rong were also a hero of the generation, they died too early, and the Huaihe River and the Yangtze River were also powerless against the south. Instead, they had to guard against the Southern Tang relying on the advantages of the navy to get cheap...
Later, Lu You commented on the "Southern Tang Dynasty as a hidden great country" in "Book of Southern Tang". It is a very exquisite statement.
The only flaw of the Southern Tang Dynasty was its military strength, or the combat effectiveness of the troops was slightly poor. Compared with those strong soldiers in the north, there was no way. After Yang Xingmi's separatist ruled, this land was the most peaceful;
Not only were there few wars, Yang Xingmi-Xu Wen-Li Bing, the warlord class rebel of the three generations of old, middle-aged and young warlords, was a rare wise ruler in governing the country and protecting the people by heart. He could not use troops outside, and he was determined to rest as much as possible. In this way, the combat effectiveness of soldiers could naturally not be effectively trained. Although the advantage of population size can also make up for the quality deficiency, new recruits and old soldiers cannot be compared after all.
In addition, it depends on who will lead the troops.
The battle to destroy Fujian was actually very ugly. In name, it was destroyed. It was so rough that it looked like the face of Elizabeth I. After this battle, the huge Fujian Kingdom was divided into three Jiedus, Yong'an, Zhangwu, Qingyuan, and the warlords of Wu and Yue each accounted for one.
The Southern Tang Dynasty achieved very little benefits. After careful calculation, the results of the battle were probably not as good as the military expenditure. Yong'an is known as a military governor. It is located in the northern Fujian region of later generations. It is not as good as the mountains and has no property. The only awesome Jianzan is not popular all over the world at this moment.
In addition, the production points are copper and silver, but transportation and management are major issues and need to be developed slowly.
...
The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms continued the Tang Dynasty in terms of administrative and military system. The administration was a two-level system of prefecture and county, with the governor in charge of prefecture and county magistrate in charge of county.
In states where wars are frequent, vassal states or square towns are designated as military towns, which are simply called military towns, and are led by the Jiedushi. However, the lessons learned from the Tang Dynasty, vassal states, like the Ten Jiedushi of Tianbao, which are almost independent kingdoms, no longer exist. Usually, the Jiedushi is only responsible for the military affairs of a state without administrative power, and cannot also manage other states and have no right to call auxiliary soldiers of the state. In this way, the possibility of the Jiedushi being in chaos again will be greatly reduced.
This is the reason why there was no disaster in the Zhongnan Tang Dynasty.
The only exception is that Li Hongji, the governor of Runzhou, and the four prefectures of the county, were in charge of the eastern capital and monopolized the military and political power of Jiangbei. All the troops north of the Yangtze River in the Southern Tang Dynasty were under his command.
Of course, Li Jing said it was very beautiful on the surface. The land of Jiangbei was not only the place where the Li family made its fortune (Li Bing was from Lianyungang today), but also a rush to the pseudo-Han in the north and the Wu and Yue in the east. In order to flexibly mobilize troops, he could only be the king of Nanchang to follow the county.
"Runzhou is Zhenjiang. Li Hongji is stationed in Yangzhou, the eastern capital, Yangzhou is also known as Jiangdu. I don't know why a pair of black-framed glasses suddenly appeared in front of me." Li Yu shook his head and immersed in his analysis.
As for whether Li Jingda, who is in charge of military power, believes in this set of noble and powerful nonsense, it is hard to say. Although the character of this great marshal of various military powers is a stupid word, after so many years of experience in this position, and with the fact that there is Song Qiqiu behind him, no matter how stupid he is, he is not very stupid...
