Why do the soldiers of the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties have to be treated as uncles, ot

Since the Anshi Rebellion, the world of the Tang Dynasty can be said to be the world of the Jiedu envoys, the Jiedu envoys are equivalent to the vassal states when they are divided, and they can be hereditarily replaced.

In 759 A.D., Pinglu Jiedu made Wang Xuanzhi die of illness, and the successor of Jiedu should be his son, but Li Huaiyubu, a Goguryeo under his command, was not satisfied with the status quo, so he pulled out a knife and killed his son, and elected others to become the Jiedu envoy.

The phenomenon of the abolition of the arrogant generals for the festival envoy has caused an imbalance in the power of the commander of the feudal town, and even formed a norm in the later period, and this phenomenon is even more common in the five dynasties period, the soldiers often kill the current commander immediately when they can't get the benefits, and then set up another commander, ** The weakening of the regime led to the contempt of the feudal town for the imperial court, and the soldiers of the feudal town had the strength, so they despised their superiors, and the commander had to condone his subordinates in order to maintain his status, which led to the arrogance of the soldiers and generals abound in that period.

For example, when Zhang Hongjing was the envoy of the Xuanwu Festival, in order to win over and appease his subordinates, he often rewarded the sergeants, in order to make them happy, but this led to the emptiness of the treasury money and grain, and the court removed him and replaced him with another person to be the envoy of the festival, Li Sheng This person is the Tang Dynasty, he treats the sergeants very strictly after he succeeds, and there is no reward. killed Li Sheng's uncle, wife and children, and Li Sheng was also frightened by your rebels and fled.

During the period of the Five Dynasties, Tian Mou, the envoy of the southern festival, when he was the envoy of the Wuning festival, in order to win over his subordinates and gain a foothold, he wanted to please his sergeants like Youling, and often sat together with his subordinates scatteredly, drinking and singing, hooking shoulders and backs, and then rewarding them with tens of thousands of money every day, so he could have a deep military heart, but after Tian Mou's death, his successor Wen Zhang, this person's reputation outside was known for his severity, but when he went to Wuning to take over the position of the Jiedu envoy, he also wanted to buy the military heart of Huairou after seeing the proud soldiers. But the sergeants below were afraid that this was his expedient measure, and they were afraid that they would settle accounts after the autumn, so they raised troops and ran him away.

Even the heroic and invincible Li Keyong, when he was fighting the world, the soldiers robbed the people and did all kinds of evil, but he never stopped it, his son Li Cunqiao did not understand very much, Li Keyong said meaningfully, now the people who fight the world with us are for real gold**, if we manage too strictly, these people will naturally run to other people's accounts to continue to make money, so we will really fall into the abyss. Let's talk about it when the world settles down.

Therefore, in the Five Dynasties period, if you want to command your subordinates, you must eat and drink them as if they were uncles, otherwise maybe when you go to bed in the middle of the night, your subordinates will quietly come to your tent with knives.

This is because the 5th generation period is very chaotic, so soldiers are very precious, and if you treat them badly, they will betray you.

Because if these soldiers are not coaxed, they will not fight bravely on the battlefield.

Because his official position was very unpleasant at the beginning, and the emperor did not give them a good listing, so the soldiers did not get good treatment, and they have been resentful for a long time.
