The "Hou Jing Rebellion" is known to the world, this rebellion, but completely changed the course of historical development, the world is unpredictable, from the emperor down to the people of Limin which is not a chess piece of this chess game called the world, until there are a few people who can change the course of history, it has achieved a glorious history, whether it is good or bad, who wins and who loses, all by future generations to debate.
People who want to make a game are scrambling, and who becomes the final winner is really too much to test. Who is the fox, who is the wolf, who is the rabbit, who is the sheep, who can laugh to the end, no one can know. The more you stand on the highest peak, the stronger the desire, and the cold in the high places, not only makes people lament how hard-won modern life in peacetime and abundant food and clothing is.
First, in the general environment, internal and external troubles
As we all know, the corruption of Southern Liang was the historical background that led to Hou Jing's rebellion, and Southern Liang at that time could only be described as "everyone is tired of suffering and every family is thinking of chaos". At that time, the entire southern beam was just an empty shell, basically in a state of crumbling, internal and external troubles, and under the gorgeous appearance was a body that had long been decayed.
After Xiao Yan gained power, he not only connived at the royal family and the chamber clan, but also allowed nepotism, but the entire royal family was also surging with dark tides, frequent infighting, and intrigue between brothers, full of deceit and fratricide. The political contradictions between the whole country were so severe that Hou Jing had an opportunity to take advantage of it and provided sufficient conditions for hou Jing's chaos at that time.
Xiao Zhengde was the nephew of Emperor Xiao Yan of Liangwu, as well as Xiao Xuan, who wanted his father to return to the west, Xiao Ji, who wanted to claim the title of emperor himself, Xiao Lun, who had a violent personality, and Xiao Hong, a brother of Xiao Yan, who was extremely greedy for money, were all invisible assistants who allowed Hou Jing to successfully obtain power.
At that time, under Xiao Yan's rule, the decaying Gaomen clan also made the country more and more golden and jade. Because of the high taxation, the common people built Buddhist temples on a large scale, and they were miserable, and the status of soldiers was almost indistinguishable from that of prostitutes.
In the official arena, they do not pay attention to fair punishment, and they are so severe that the people cry out one after another. Political contradictions provided favorable conditions for Hou Jing to successfully capture Southern Liang, making Hou Jing's forces at that time look like they were breaking through.
2. Hou Jing's Rebellion
After several months of preparations, Hou Jing raised troops to Shouyang and took the first step out of Hou Jing's rebellion, Xiao Zhengde, as an internal response, helped Hou Jing cross the Yangtze River and opened the Xuanyang Gate, enabling Hou Jing to enter the capital Jiankang, with the influx of a large number of peasants, the power continued to expand, the team developed and grew, and then invaded Anhui and other places, Emperor Wu of Liang was defeated and retreated, and Jiankang was in danger.
After only one hundred and thirty days of siege, the entire Southern Liang was paralyzed, and Emperor Wu of Liang, who had reached his old age, was very dissatisfied in his heart, and expressed dissatisfaction with Hou Jing's demands, and eventually he was starved to death.
Hou Jing seized the throne and put the then crown prince Xiao Gang as a puppet emperor to the throne, which was for Emperor Jianwen and changed the yuan to Dabao. Xiao Zhengde had a grudge in his heart, and hou Jing was strangled alive after learning about it. As Jinghou continued to destroy Sanwu and annex Sanwu, he also achieved the peak of his power at that time, and even married Princess Liyang, the daughter of Emperor Wen of Jian at that time, to get what he wanted.
3. Hou Jing's rebellion was over
At this time, there was a figure who reversed the situation, Chen Baxian, speaking of this Chen Baxian, I have to say his origin, he was originally a nobody, his origin was not prominent, he had been the biggest official, that is, the village chief, it was this grassroots, after being reused by Xiao Ying, he began to crusade against Jinghou, and the Liang Dynasty forces wanted to regain the imperial power that was originally their own and continue the culture of the Southern Dynasty.
At that time, he and another general, Wang Shengjie, formed an alliance to recover the lost land together, so that Hou Jing's rebellion could be quelled, Hou Jing was defeated and committed suicide, Jiankang was recovered, and his wife Princess Liyang also ate his flesh, which made people sigh.
The Hou Jing Rebellion, which lasted for nearly 4 years, also came to an end and established the Chen Dynasty, and this major historical accident brought about the destruction of the entire southern economy, and the war made history continue to advance and evolve, and it was these reorganizations and fission that formed the mighty Chinese civilization.
The combat effectiveness of Hou Jing and his veterans should not be underestimated, but they have never been able to defeat the class contradictions between the clan relatives and the warrior clans, which makes people lament that people without background want to gain the rights of the supreme ruler, and they also need to have the ability to defend the jiangshan that they have worked hard to fight down.
Hou Jing's rebellion makes people can't help but sigh, perhaps in this contest, Hou Jing is just a knife, reigned for only two years, it was overthrown, want to be unrestrained, is to use their own way to fight back, find themselves, achieve themselves.
As a knife, the connivance of the royal family relatives quickly destroyed the decaying Southern Liang, and this ruling class contradiction caused irreversible changes in history, and the old subordinates of Southern Liang could not look at it, and quickly pulled Down Hou Jing, who had reigned for only two years, perhaps Chen Guo was the main theme.
Fourth, the impact of the coup
The impact of this war on the historical pattern is very significant, aggravating the situation that led to the weakness of the south and the strength of the north, in the political pattern, because of the hou jing rebellion, Hou Jing seized power, but the good times were not long, and chen baxian took it back, and the repeated regime changes made the situation more and more severe, indirectly leading to the northern dynasty becoming a beneficiary.
Economic and cultural needless to say, the people in the nearly 4 years of war, the people are not happy, full of devastation, the cruelty of the war can be imagined, corpses are everywhere, blood flows into rivers, wives and children are scattered, families are broken, everywhere the war is crying all day, mourning is everywhere.
Hou Jing led to great changes in the ethnic structure of the Southern Dynasty, the Shi clan was in a slump, the status of the Shu and the indigenous people rose, and the Hao clan of the southern natives gradually stepped onto the historical stage, and the political status was not the same, which was a huge change in political society over the past few hundred years.
Although Chen Guo was still weak, he was also the largest force at that time, which changed the situation in China and laid the foundation for the later three-legged pattern. The situation caused by hou Jing's rebellion in the south was weak and the north was strong, so that the Western Wei had an opportunity to take advantage of it, the situation of the reunification of the north and the south became more and more obvious, the economic strength was enhanced, the status could not be said to be the same as in the past, and gradually the strength to unify China was gradually gained.
5. Summary
Under the background of this era, many heroic figures were born, infighting gave birth to Hou Jing, the rapid collapse of Hou Jing, and the acceleration of the historical pattern, the reshuffling of the southern forces, the gradual strengthening of the northern strength, and with the recovery of the southern economic strength, the three-legged rudimentary form gradually appeared.
In people's minds, war is not only a contest of intelligence and physical strength, in that era, only to become a bloodthirsty butcher can gain dignity, under the power, officials and officials protect each other, small people without background want to be remembered by history, can only rely on their own continuous plunder, with extreme ways to fight injustice, is the counterattack of small people, but also the place where fresh history makes people fascinated.
