It cannot be said that the Southern Song army was not good, but the reason why the Mongol army was too strong.
-
This is mainly related to the national policy of the Song State. At that time, the Song Dynasty was very heavy on literature and light on military force. They don't really advocate force, they don't like war, and their military capabilities are actually very strong.
But many times their military strength is not really brought into play. So there will be no alliance with others.
-
Because the Jin State only posed a threat to the territory of the Song Dynasty, it had no intention of encroaching on the Mongols. Although the Mongols continued to occupy the land of the Jin State later, in the face of the powerful Mongols, the Song Dynasty's alliance with Mongolia to resist the Jin Dynasty was a great risk for the Song Dynasty.
-
At that time, the Song Dynasty was only concerned with peace. It did not pay attention to the strength of the army, but only to the literary style, so the national defense at that time was very weak, and there was no friendly exchanges with neighboring countries.
-
The Song Dynasty was a country that valued literature over military force, and because of such political factors, it would not unite with other countries to resist the enemy. Not to mention cooperating with the barbarian Mongols. They are more literary and political.
-
Because the rulers of the Song Dynasty were very weak at that time, they didn't want to fight, their military strength was very strong, but he didn't have the spirit of resistance, let alone join Mongolia to resist Jin.
-
Because the Song Dynasty had gunpowder, their military should be very powerful.
-
In the early days of the Song Dynasty, it was true that it fought very well, but after releasing military power, it adopted a policy of emphasizing literature over military force, weakening its military strength.
-
The Song Dynasty was indeed a little weaker than other dynasties, but the people of the Song Dynasty were doing well.
-
The reason why the Song Dynasty was relatively incompetent later was because they emphasized literature over military force, but they were not very strong.
-
During the Song Dynasty, the development of the army was restricted, and they fought very well.
-
The Song Dynasty was very bad at fighting wars The Song Dynasty did not develop military strength.
-
I don't think the Song Dynasty was a weak and incompetent dynasty, it was actually quite powerful.
-
Yes. If the Song Dynasty emphasized military force and neglected literature, there were many brave and warlike generals, and the Mongols would have been forced to retreat one after another, and they could completely resist it.
-
How could it be impossible to resist! Even when those in charge of the two Song Dynasty were short of calcium and fled, there were also heroic generals who served the country loyally for the nation and would rather die than surrender: Meng Hui, Wei Sheng, Wang Yu, Yang Zaixing, Bian Juyi, etc. are all true heroes.
-
I think it's okay, in fact, to be able to establish a dynasty so early, there is still a certain amount of strength, and the people in the past were still very brave and good at fighting.
Because the strength of the Tubo they faced was also different, the Tang Dynasty faced the Tubo at its peak, while the Song Dynasty faced the declining Tubo, so the ending was different.
