After the rise of the military, Liu Yu joined the army, and he was the first Sima without end, and the North House soldier was always the champion grandson. In November of the third year of Longan, Sun En set out to make a crusade against gold, which shocked the ruling and opposition parties. Emperor Wu of song took refuge in Liu Laozhi, the famous soldier in the Battle of Feishui, and rose up to revolt. In the years when he moved to Sanwu, Emperor Wu of Song fought and won, and lost, and his military strategy began to emerge. He is not only brave and good at fighting, persevering, but also well-directed, resourceful and good at winning more with less. Emperor Wu of song ruled the army and purged it, with strict law and discipline. Because of his meritorious service in fighting against chaos, he was named General Jianwu by Emperor Wu of Liu and took Pi as the satrap. Emperor Wu of song began to show his talents in the northern government.
In the first year of Yuanxing, Huan Wen's son, Huan Xuan, was transferred to Jiankang, killed Sima Yuan Xian, and Emperor Wu of Song assessed the situation and temporarily defected to Huan Xuan. Because Emperor Wu of Song has made many achievements in building the army, he has a good reputation in the northern government army headquarters, so Huan Xuan can't underestimate him. The following December, Huan Xuan usurped the throne, and he was more hospitable to Emperor Wu of Song. Huan Xuan often said: I want to destroy the Central Plains, and I can't do it without this person.
In the third year of Yuan Xing, Emperor Wu of Song, in the name of hunting, gathered more than 100 people to attack Beijing first and killed Huan Xiu. They pushed Emperor Wu of Song as the leader and spread it widely, and all parts of the country responded in succession. Because most of the defenders in Huan Xuan came from the northern government soldiers, they had no fighting spirit in the face of Emperor Wu of Song. Emperor Wu of Song then led the army to attack, successfully defeated the defenders of Huan Xuan with fire attack, and Huan Xuan also abandoned the west and fled. In June of that year, Emperor Wu of Song killed Huan Xuan, and Emperor Jin 'an was reset in Jiangling. In the first year of Yixi, Emperor Wu of Song recovered Jiangling, expelled the local universal forces, and ushered in the return of Emperor Jin 'an from Jiangling to Jiankang. Restore the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
In four years, Emperor Wu of Song followed Liu's advice and entered the DPRK to discuss his successor. In the end, he was awarded the positions of assistant, cycling general, Kaifu Yitong No.3 Division, Liaoning University of Technology Kazak secretariat, Shangshu secretariat, Xu Yanzhou secretariat and so on, and took charge of the political affairs. At this point, he became the real leader of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. Pacify the chaos of Huan Xuan, let Emperor Wu of Song rise in troubled times, and also exercised his wise heart. Emperor Wu of song has his own strategy in his heart. He always knew that the north was his own battlefield. After he mastered the power of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Northern Expedition was put on the agenda.
The ambition of Emperor Wu of Song's Northern Expedition In April of the fifth year of Yixi, Emperor Wu of Song swore himself to the Northern Expedition in Jiankang. Attack Southern Yan, Lien Chan, Lien Jie. Yixi six years in February, 8 jin j invaded the inner city of Guanggu. Southern Yan and Murong Chao led dozens of riders to break through, but they were captured by 8 Jin J and sent to Jiankang for beheading, and Southern Yan perished. Emperor Wu of song killed three thousand people below the maharaja to vent their anger on the grounds that the optical valley had been kept for a long time.
In August of the 12th year of Yixi, Emperor Wu of Song took Wei Liu as the minister's left servant, who was always in charge of the internal affairs and provided stores to the outside world, and led the army to the Northern Expedition in four ways. In September, Emperor Wu of Song arrived in Pengcheng. General Long Xiang and top scholar Tan Daoji led the troops from Huai and Fei to Xu and Luo. At the end of Qin Dynasty, all the defenders stopped, and 8 Jin Army advanced by leaps and bounds. 10, Wang Zhene army occupied Luoyang. In the thirteenth year of Yixi, in the first month, Wang Zhene broke through the Tongguan defense line, led the army to take it directly, and captured Chang 'an in one fell swoop. Yao Hong led his ministers to surrender, and the later Qin Dynasty perished. Emperor Wu of song recovered Chang' an. This winter, Emperor Wu of Song led 8 jin j to the imperial city of Chang 'an. He wanted to have a rest here and pass through Guanzhong, but he heard the news of Liu's death. Emperor Wu of song was afraid that the court would change, so he left Liu Yizhen, the son of 12 years old, to lead, Shen and other officials to guard Chang 'an, and led his army south. After Emperor Wu of Song hurried back to the south, there was a conflict between the rulers and civil servants who stayed in Chang 'an. In the end, Chang 'an gained and lost, and all the elite soldiers were lost. However, after two northern expeditions, large areas south of the Yellow River, north of the Huaihe River and upper reaches of the Hanshui River were owned by Emperor Wu of Song. This is the highest harvest of the Northern Expedition, and it also makes Emperor Wu of Song's reputation reach its peak.
The helplessness of the throne also requires great military achievements, which makes Emperor Wu of Song's position in the imperial court extremely prominent. In the 14th year of Yixi, Emperor Wu of Song accepted the positions of Guo Xiang, Zongbaiba and Yangzhou Pastoral, and established the Song State with ten counties, and was named Duke of Song, and received a special gift from Nine.
At this time, Emperor Jin 'an was a complete puppet. According to Ten Records of Ji Di in the Book of Jin, Jin Di could not tell hunger from winter and summer. He is insane and incredibly stupid. He stutters and can't speak. He even feels cold, hot and hungry. He has to rely on others to support his every move. Therefore, after Andi succeeded to the throne, the authority of the Eastern Jin emperor declined greatly, and many generals actually stood on their own feet and were not subject to your orders. In the first year of Longan, Sima Dezong succeeded to the throne, calling Andi and Wang Shen 'ai the queen. The Queen experienced a palace coup, worried about life and death, and lived in constant fear. In her eighth year in Yixi, she collapsed in Yin Hui Hall. When the country was delivered to the emperor, it could not be saved. If it weren't for Emperor Wu of Song's cutting off the strongmen around him, the Eastern Jin Dynasty would have perished. In desperation, Emperor Wu of Song had to kill it and set up another Sima as the emperor.
In June of the second year of Yuanxi, Emperor Gong gave it to Emperor Wu, and the Eastern Jin Dynasty perished. Emperor Wu ascended the throne as emperor, changed his title to Song, and ascended the throne as Yuan Yongchu.
After managing the country through diligence and thrift, Emperor Wu of Song weakened the powerful governors and centralized them. In view of the fact that Jingzhou has been the source of famine for many times, the jurisdiction of Jingzhou Prefecture has been merged, and the number of its civil and military officials has been limited.
In order to prevent ministers from making a mess, he issued a special decree: in the future, all ministers who go out to conquer should be accompanied by the imperial army, and the army should be owned by the imperial court.
Clans hide their families and reduce government revenue. Emperor Wu of song ordered the reorganization of household registration and the implementation of the land termination law. It is stipulated that the materials needed by the government should be sent to the relevant officials and purchased with money. Appropriately reduce farmers' taxes, abolish cumbersome laws and regulations, and let the people recuperate and develop production in a relaxed environment.
Since Wei and Jin Dynasties, both the royal family and the government advocated luxury. Born in a lonely cold, Emperor Wu of Song knew the hardships of farming. He is simple at ordinary times, with few requirements, and is very temperate in jade, horses, chariots, silk and bamboo. Ningzhou presents Hu Zhen pillow, which is bright and gorgeous. Emperor Wu of song heard that amber can heal, so people smashed it and distributed soldiers. He usually wears casual clothes, even clogs, ordinary skirts and hats; The residence is painted with earthen screens, cloth lanterns and hemp ropes. Quite shabby, so frugality prevailed, and the extravagance since the Western Jin Dynasty was gradually curbed.
Emperor Wu of song acceded to the throne and sent messengers to patrol the four sides, promoting good deeds and visiting people's sufferings. During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the power of the central government, prefectures and counties was always in the hands of four families: Wang, Xie, Yu and Huan. The selection of officials is mainly based on family status. The so-called inferior people have no aristocratic families. Most of the elected officials are people without talent and knowledge. After Emperor Wu of Song came to power, he ordered to change this situation and asked to select talents according to the spirit of the original Nine Grades System. He attaches great importance to people from humble origins, such as Liu, Tan Daoji, Zhao Lunzhi, etc. They are all very talented people.
In the early period of Liu and Song Dynasties, because Emperor Wu of Song recovered the three northern countries of Qing, Yan and Si at the end of Jin Dynasty, he generally owned a vast area south of the Yellow River and became the dynasty with the largest territory, the strongest strength, the most developed economy and the most prosperous culture in the Eastern Jin and Southern Dynasties. From the east of Tongguan to the south of the Yellow River to Qingzhou, it has always been the territory of the Southern Dynasties, and the Jianghuai Basin has been guaranteed, which Zu Ti, Huan Wen, Xie An and others failed to achieve in the past hundred years.
His son, Liu Yilong, continued the policy of Emperor Wu of Song, and finally formed the rule of Yuanjia. At that time, Cui Hao, a great politician in the Northern Wei Dynasty, once compared Emperor Wu of Song with Cao Cao. He pointed out that Liu Yuzhi was a troublemaker, and so was Cao Cao in Sima Dezong. Wang Fuzhi, a thinker in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, believed that Yu's contribution to the world was greater than that of Cao Cao. Mr. Lu Xun, a modern master, said that he was the only monarch worthy of recognition in the Southern Dynasties.
