Reading "Water Margin", the most exciting thing is that the good men of Liangshan gather together to fight for the Skywalker. The most angry section is that Song Jiang was recruited to fight for the imperial court, and finally the good Han of Liangshan suffered heavy casualties. As the leader of the rebel army, Fang La, why didn't the Song Dynasty recruit An Fang La?
One willing to recruit one unwilling
Both Song Jiang and Fang La were recruited by the Song Dynasty. And Song Jiang has always wanted to recruit An since Liangshan joined the company. In Song Jiang's mind, he always had the set of kings and subjects, and he was eager to serve the imperial court from a small abbot to a high-ranking official of the Song Dynasty.
Although Song Jiang befriended a good man in Liangshan, in his heart, he was unwilling to leave the public office of a small county to become a "bandit", so Liangshan had hoped that Song Jiang would go, but Song Jiang did not go. Even after killing Yan Xijiao, although Song Jiang had plans to go to Liangshan, he was also unwilling, and only then was Xunyang upstairs arrested for writing anti-poems.
From the very beginning, Song Jiang wanted to recruit an official, and he wanted to become an official, and he also wanted to take his brother to be an official. For such a rebel army to suffer heavy losses in the end, the reason for Song Jiang to be recruited is very simple.
Fang La, on the other hand, was different from Song Jiang. Fang La is a long-term worker of Fang Youchang, the landlord of BangyuanDong in Qingxi Wannian Township. Later, he claimed to have "obtained the Heavenly Charm", killed Fang Youchang, and gathered a group of poor peasants to raise the banner of righteousness against the Song. Judging from the origin, Song Jiang was superior to Fang La.
Fang La was born from a poor peasant background, and most of his rebel army was also poor people, and the purpose of their righteous banner was to turn over and be the director, and when Fang La rebelled, he listed the sins of the Song Dynasty and said, "The country under heaven, the same principle, now there are sons and daughters cultivating and weaving, working hard all the years, there are few millets, fathers and brothers are taken and swept away", "Now the enlistment is heavy, the officials invade the fishing, and the nongsang is not enough to supply", "And the sound and color, the dog, the civil engineering, the prayer temple, the armor soldiers, the flower stone, the silver silk of the year is slightly the west and the north of the world, and there are millions of silver silks, all of which are responded to by the southeast of the country, and between the ten days." , all can be gathered. ”
In Fang La's eyes, he overthrew Emperor Lao Tzu and turned himself into the master. From the very beginning, they didn't think of Recruiting An, that is, fighting to the end. Song Jiang's gang of brothers was not, except for the landlord and the old man who was also an official of the imperial court, most of them wanted to clear the name of "bandit".
Emperor Huizong of Song saw that fang la's rebel army was developing rapidly and becoming stronger and stronger, so he wanted to recruit them, and he issued an edict: "If you can tie yourself up, or tell the truth, arrest the thief party, and specially exonerate them, and do not ask any questions." The same slight merit, that is, prostration and reward. ”
However, Fang La's rebel army was not at all interested in the edict of Zhao'an under Emperor Huizong of Song, and Fang La continued to lead his troops to attack the city of Hangzhou, while the rebel army went to the battlefield, fought for five days and finally captured the city of Hangzhou, and Fang La destroyed the cemetery of Cai Jing's father in one breath.
Later, Fang La's rebel army successively attacked several important towns in the Song Dynasty, killing many corrupt officials and corrupt officials, making Fang La's rebel army very trusted by the common people.
It can be seen from this that Fang La did not want to recruit security from the time of the uprising, and he reversed it to the end. The Song Dynasty simply could not recruit them.
One big brother and one emperor
Judging from the Song Dynasty's recruitment of An An Song Jiang and not An Fang La, there is another factor that needs to be mentioned. Song Jiang, as the "leading big brother" of Liangshan, and the good men of Liangshan, are all seated according to ability, and they are all called brothers. In other words, Liangshan's rebel army is not yet a political power in the strict sense. On the issue of recruiting security, Song Jiang also promoted democracy and consulted his brothers, and most of the brothers agreed to recruit security. In accordance with the principle of the minority obeying the majority, Song Jiang took the road of Zhao'an. In other words, Song Jiang wanted to recruit An, including the brothers below who were mostly willing.
In 1120, after Fang La led an uprising, he called himself "Shenggong", Jianyuan Yongle, and set up officials and generals, and the army used turbans to distinguish ranks. Whether this "Shenggong" was an emperor or a king, Fang La was a rebel regime, which was very different from Song Jiang. As for whether to accept the Song Dynasty's offer, Fang La alone had the final say and did not have to be constrained by his subordinates.
Therefore, from the perspective of the status of the two people, it is easy for the Song Dynasty to recruit An Song Jiang, but it is difficult to recruit Fang La. Since Fang La had established a political power, his goal was to overthrow the Zhao family as emperor, and the Song Jiang realm was to promote the official to a higher level, and the Guangzong Yaozu.
One super strong and one too weak
Song Jiang led a group of brothers to gather in Liangshan to oppose the Song Dynasty, but liangshan's rebellion was too weak, and he could only stick to the Liangshan area, taking "Po" as a natural danger (historical data do not say). Song Jiang understood that if he did not recruit security, it would be difficult to compete with the Song Dynasty with the strength of Liangshan, and it would soon be destroyed, and at that time, the heads would fall to the ground, and there would be no chance to become an official. In Song Jiang's eyes, he recruited an early man, as early as the Song Dynasty as an official, and also found a way back for his brothers and a peace for their families. This was Song Jiang's idea.
Fang La, on the other hand, had gathered tens of thousands of people when he first revolted, and all of them were poor people, as long as there was food to eat. In the eyes of the Fang La rebel army, Zhao'an did not like them at all, and the important thing was that they could kill all the corrupt officials of the Song Dynasty and then live a good life. This is a simple idea, and the idea of Song Jiang's petty official is of course two lines of thought.
When Fang La led the rebel army against the Song Dynasty, his territory was very large, and he first captured Qingxi in the Song Dynasty, and then attacked the two prefectures of Mu and She. Fang La's rebel army marched south, and also conquered Quzhou, killing The County's shou Peng Rufang. After developing to the north, it captured the counties of Xincheng, Tonglu and Fuyang, and then approached Hangzhou, using 5 days to occupy Hangzhou. At this time, Fang La's power and territory expanded rapidly, and he had a certain strength to confront the Song Dynasty.
Even if Song Jiang didn't have the heart to recruit An, as far as his little troop strength and that little bit of territory were concerned, if he wanted to confront the imperial court, his strength would not allow it at all. After the Fang La uprising, his power continued to expand, so that he had the ambition to compete with the Song Dynasty for the world, but it is still the old saying, the peasant rebel army, with few talents under its hands, strategic and tactical errors, the whole will be overturned.
For Song Jiang's Zhao'an, the viewers only summarized the reasons from the "Water Margin", which is different from the historical data. However, Fang La's rebel army was not recruited, and it was summarized from Fang La's historical materials. There is no certain contrast between the two, but it is mainly an analysis of Song Jiang's psychology in "Water Margin".
