Chapter 7 4. Regarding the issue of "not communicating with Liu and Shi"

"Twenty-two Histories" Volume 1 Eighth Jin Mu Emperor Yonghe Seventh Year Article said: "Even though the Eastern Jin emperors and ministers leaned to the left of the river, they were still able to stand on their own, and did not communicate with Liu and Shi. Although the old capital was lost, Xuan also regained it. See. In the Southern Song Dynasty, those who are called ministers and nephews, who are not ashamed, are far away from each other. You can talk about it lightly!" Qian Daxin said that talking about harming the country is not discussed in this article.The so-called pros and cons of the Jin and Song Dynasties were often discussed by the people of the Southern Song Dynasty when they read the history, and the people of the Song Dynasty who covered the book of Qian's family discussed it, and we will briefly explain it here.

Yuan Xie's "Xu Zhai Ji" volume six "Policy Questions" "National oaks in the past dynasties" said: Sima's "Jianguan crossed the river, but it was weak, and it took a few years to build a ZTE business. The change of Wang and Su brought the country back In the precarious situation, the weak controlled the strong, and died in the Qing Dynasty. Fu and Shi Zhixiong were no match for the Jin Dynasty. They won the dry Feishui and burned their betrothal coins. I have never seen China as weak...." Its "preparation" Tiao said: "Try to blame the east of the Jin family. Jiangzuo is weak, but it has never been negotiated with. Shi Le came to hire him and burned his coins. He didn't know what to rely on and dared to do it!" When crossing the river, the country is not weak, but it is not willing to make peace with the enemy. Shi Le came to hire him, and burned his coins... With a strong enemy in front, the people of Jin pondered day and night, seeking a strategy to defeat the enemy, so they protected their country." Yuan Xie made this discussion because he was hurting the time. He advocated that the Southern Song Dynasty did not seek war and should not be afraid of war, and he especially praised the Eastern Jin Dynasty's burning of coins to refuse peace.The burning of coins refers to the event of Bingzi "Shi Le sent envoys to bribe and ordered to burn them" in the eighth year of Xianhe (333) in the sixth volume of "Book of Jin" and "Chengdi Ji".Volume 1 and 3 of Wang Yinglin said: "Burning the coins of Shi Le, the ambitions of Jiang Zuo's monarchs and ministers are strong. There are sixteen countries in the name of the king, and the Jin Dynasty defeated one (original note: Fu Jian), and destroyed the third (original note: Li Shi, Murong Chao) , Yao Hong). It is not allowed to talk about Jin." Wang Yinglin also expressed emotion because he attached importance to the burning of coins.Yan Ruoqiu, a native of the Qing Dynasty, collated Wang Shu, and there is a pertinent statement here: "The Wang family won't hurt their own dynasty!"

Qian Daxin emphasized that Jin people "do not communicate with Liu and Shi", which is the same as the words quoted by Yuan and Wang praising the burning of coins.In my opinion, the Eastern Jin "not communicating with Liu and Shi", in addition to showing the national spirit of the Eastern Jin monarchs and ministers, there are also historical reasons for it.And this point is related to the main purpose of this article, and the predecessors seem to have not mentioned it.Therefore, I will explore its background and explain its reasons here, so as to see some developmental changes in the development of ethnic relations during the period from the late period of the Eight Princes Rebellion to the founding of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, that is, the formation and establishment of the situation of "the king and the horse share the world". kind of continuity.

The Hu people's galloping in the Central Plains began at the stage of the confrontation between Sima Ying, the king of Chengdu, and Sima Yue, the king of the East China Sea, in the late period of the Eight Kings Rebellion.Sima Yue and Sima Ying form their own factions among the Hu tribes to help each other, and use their power to kill dissidents with vengeance.They are the direct culprits who lured Hu Qi into the Central Plains.The rebellion of the Eight Kings became the rebellion of Yongjia, and the rebellion of Yongjia became the "Five Husses". However, the Eastern Han, Wei, and Jin regimes were powerless to stop this historical trend of inward migration.There are ethnic contradictions in it.However, at the beginning, the Zhuhu tribe raised troops as the allies of the two sides in the civil war of the Eight Kings Rebellion, which was mainly manifested as the confrontation between the kings rather than the confrontation between the nations.At least it can be said that at that stage, national confrontation was included in the confrontation of kings, subordinate to the confrontation of kings, and had not yet become an independent form of confrontation.

After the Eight Kings Rebellion ended, Liu and Shi, whom Sima Ying was originally associated with, fell into the two capitals, captured Huai and Min, and became the victors in the north.However, Sima Yue's party established a foothold in Jiangzuo, so it appeared as a confrontation between the North and the South.At this time, the situation changed. No matter within the northern society or between the north and the south, ethnic conflicts were dominant.The king and horse of Jiangzuo inherited the fait accompli during the confrontation between Sima Yue and Sima Ying in their attitudes towards the Hu tribes in the north. Friends become enemies.The antagonism between Sima Yue and Sima Ying affected many aspects of Jiangzuo's policies, including Jiangzuo's distinction between friends and enemies of the Hu tribes in the north.Jiangzuo's "not communicating with Liu and Shi" is directly related to this background, at least for a period after the establishment of the Jiangzuo regime.

After the Battle of Dangyin, Sima Yue's party, Youzhou Governor Wang Jun, and Sima Yue's younger brother, Bingzhou Governor Sima Teng, joined forces to attack Sima Ying.Wang Jun led Xianbei and Wuhuan Tuqi to attack Ye in the south.Later, Sima went west to welcome Emperor Hui, and Wang Jun took Xianbei and Wuhuan Tuqi as pioneers.Xianbei and Wuhuan in Youzhou, especially the Duan tribe of Xianbei among them, became an important force under Wang Jun's control to help Sima Yue compete in the Central Plains, and also became a factor affecting Jiangzuo politics in the future. When Wang Jun and Sima Teng rebelled against Sima Ying, Liu Yuan, a Hun, went to General Ningshuo to supervise the five armies of the Huns. He followed Ying in Ye. Please send five armies for Ying, and use two of them to attack Sima Teng and three to attack the king. Jun.From the end of the Wei Dynasty to the Jin Dynasty, Liu Yuan served as the son of the Xiongnu in Luo, Ye and other places. He has a deep Sinicization and has worked among the bureaucrats of the Western Jin Dynasty for a long time, and is familiar with the political situation of the Western Jin Dynasty.He was supported by the Wang family of Taiyuan and other famous families in Bingzhou, and his five tribes had covered all counties and counties in Bingzhou, and his influence was quite strong.When Liu Yuan raised his troops, Sima Ying had already lost power. Although the Xiongnu army held the banner of Sima Ying, they were actually a group of unruly horses, an uncontrolled independent military and political force, but their edge was always directed at Sima Yue. and its armies.

When Xianbei and Wuhuan raised troops, they supported Sima Yue; when the Xiongnu raised troops, they supported Sima Ying.Since Sima Yue and Sima Ying are at odds with each other, the Hu people are also at odds.It can be seen from this that the direct cause of the "five Hu chaos in China" was that the rulers of each Hu nationality participated in the civil strife among the rulers of the Western Jin Dynasty.According to "Book of Jin" Volume 101 "Records of Liu Yuanhai", Liu Yuan raised troops to help Ying, but his ancestor Liu Xuan opposed it; The Xiongnu nation, rehabilitated Han Xie's career.Liu Xuan believed that all the Zongwangs of the Western Jin Dynasty were the enemies of the Huns, so he resolutely opposed raising troops to rescue any Zongwang of the Western Jin Dynasty.Liu Yuan had other ideas, thinking that the Xiongnu could not afford to fight, and that raising troops should be regarded as "Chonggang Junfu", not "Cultivation".From a superficial understanding, Liu Xuan wanted to tie Xianbei and Wuhuan against the Jin Dynasty to seize power. Pei ".From a deep understanding, Liu Yuan aided Sima Ying to raise troops, and he had already shared the status of a strong vassal; if he could further take power from Sima Ying, it would be Zhengshuo of the Central Plains, and the clothes of the state, and Huayi would all belong to him.That is to say, attaching Sima Ying as "Pei" in the first place is precisely to become "Chonggang Junfu" in the end.Looking at Liu Yuan's founding of the country and calling him Han, pursuing Liu Chan's respect, it seems to be restoring the old career of the Han family, instead of calling himself Hu Hanxie Shanyu, his scheming embrace seems to be the case.

In order to fight against Liu Yuan and the Xiongnu, Sima Teng was in Bingzhou, begging for teachers from Yi 㐌 and Yilu brothers, the leaders of the Xianbei Tuoba tribe in Daibei, trying to use the power of the Tuoba tribe to contain the Xiongnu from the north.In the first year of Guangxi (306), Sima Yue replaced Sima Teng with Liu Kun, and Liu Kun also relied on the Xianbei Tuoba tribe for assistance, and also maintained a close relationship with the Xianbei Duan tribe in Youzhou. After Sima Ying, the king of Chengdu, entered the customs, he was forced to cancel the title of emperor's younger brother.Sima Ying therefore led Gongshifan to raise troops against Zhao Wei, claiming to support Ying and rebel against Vietnam.Shi Le, a Jie man who was living in Jizhou, contacted Ma Mushuai Ji Sang and other Hu people to raise troops and joined the Gongshi Fan army who supported Ying and rebelled against Vietnam.After Gongshifan was killed, Ji Sang and Shi Le continued to fight against Vietnam, and joined forces with Liu Yuan of Bingzhou to become Sima Yue's formidable enemy in the east.Sima Yue sent a letter to Chen Min saying: "Jie thieves gather together, wandering in the river, rats and pheasants flee, and hide in Chenliu. At first they want to rape and steal, but in the end they plan to do something wrong." Shi Le became a confidant, and Sima Yue felt deeply chilled.

Shi Le was one of a large number of Jie people who were plundered from Bingzhou and sold to Jizhou by Sima Teng, Sima Yue's younger brother, and had a deep hatred with Sima Teng.It was inevitable for him to vote for Gongshi Fan after he raised his troops, and adopted a political attitude of supporting Ying and opposing Vietnam.When Liu Kun entered the merger and Sima Teng left and came east, more than ten thousand officials and people from the prefectures and counties followed him to Jizhou to eat, and they were called "begging for work".The above two forces, Shi Le and others who were looted and sold by Sima Teng, and the "begging" who followed Sima Teng to the east also came from Bingzhou. The Sima Yue brothers were enemies, and "Qihuo" always supported the Sima Yue brothers and opposed Shi Le.

In this way, the last scene of the Rebellion of the Eight Kings, that is, the confrontation between Sima Yue and Sima Ying, was further enlarged and complicated due to the participation of various forces, and it was no longer a simple battle between the kings.On one side are Chengdu King Sima Ying, Xiongnu Liu Yuan Liu Cong, Jieren Shi Le, etc., and on the other side are East China Sea King Sima Yue, Xianbei Tuoba, Xianbei Duanbu and "Qihuo" and so on.The two opposing sides have distinct fronts, reciprocate each other, and when the massacre is endless, the turmoil intensifies and the hatred deepens.In the spring of the first year of Yongjia (307), Ji Sang and Shi Le claimed to avenge Sima Ying, and went to Ye to kill Sima Teng and Teng Zique;Volume 85 "Song of Bingzhou" said: "How shameful is a slave to be a general (the case refers to Jisang). In June, he wears a coat of cloak and fur. He doesn't know the cold and heat and cuts off people's heads. The male son Tian Lan beheaded Bingzhou in the middle of the night for revenge. "Tian Lan in the song is the commander-in-chief of "begging for work", and Bingzhou refers to Sima Teng.This song should be sung by the "begging" army, praising Tian Lan's killing of Sima Teng in revenge for Bingzhou Governor Sima Teng. It is a historical evidence of Sima Yue and Sima Ying's retribution.In the end, Shi Le hunted down Wang Yan and a large number of princes and celebrities, burned Sima Yue's body, and captured Sima Yue's son; and the Huns Liu Yuan and Liu Yao cooperated with Shi Le to overthrow Sima Yue's control of Emperor Huai of Jin and his nephew Sima Bao. The two Sima courts, Jin Mindi, completely wiped out the political forces operated by the Sima Yue and Wang Yan families in the north.Afterwards, the Liu family of the Huns and the Shi family of the Jie people successively established states in the north, while the "begging" forces remained in the north for a long time to compete with Liu and Shi.

Liu and Shi, who were galloping in the Central Plains, had always been enemies with Sima Yue and Wang Yan, so of course they regarded the Jiangzuo regime sent by Sima Yue and Wang Yan as their enemies.It is also inevitable that the Jiangzuo regime "does not communicate with Liu and Shi" due to historical reasons.What's more, Liu and Shi in the north were powerful and aggressive at that time, and it was not easy to seek peace through envoys.Liu and Shi were busy dealing with various opposition forces in the north, and were also busy dealing with the endless power struggles within their own clan. In fact, they had no time to take care of Jiangzuo. They had not formed serious and continuous military pressure on Jiangzuo for a while.This situation also enabled the Jiangzuo regime to reconcile internally and settle down temporarily, without having to communicate with Liu and Shi, and even dare to burn Shile's coins to show its determination.This is the historical background of Qian Daxin's words cited earlier. Wang Dao and Sima Rui not only inherited the policy of confrontation with Liu and Shi formed during the administration of Sima Yue and Wang Yan, but also took the remaining pro-Vietnam and anti-Ying forces in the north, including some ethnic forces, as their allies to fight against them together. Liu and Shi, who are irreconcilable.After the fall of Luoyang, Sima Rui had the desire to challenge Liu and Shi. "Book of Wei" Volume Nine Six "Biography of Sima Rui": In the sixth year of Yongjia, "rui called all directions, saying that he and Mudi (the case refers to Tuoba Yilu) will discuss Liu Yuan (the case is Liu Cong), and the meeting will be in Pingyang." Neither "Book of Jin" nor "Book of Wei Preface" contains the matter. "Book of Jin" Volume 5 "Huaidi Ji": It was Guichou in February of that year, "General Zhendong and Wang Rui of Langxie went to the Shangshu to call all directions to discuss Shile." Shi Zhixi is just a hostile gesture shown by Sima Rui against Liu and Shi according to his established policy, and it does not mean that Sima Rui is powerful enough to take military action.As for Sima Rui's claim to act together with Tuoba Yilu, although it is in line with the historical relationship between Sima Yue and the Tuoba tribe, it does not mean that he and Tuoba Yilu actually sent troops together.However, it can be seen from this that due to historical reasons, Sima Yue's friends, even though the Hu people are also friends of the Jiangzuo regime.At this time, the contradiction between the Jiangzuo regime and the northern regime was not purely a contradiction between the Han and Hu ethnic groups; in other words, quite a few other factors still remained in the ethnic conflict between the Hu and the Han. After the fall of Luoyang, the Xiongnu and Jiehu were rampant in the Central Plains. The only ones who could temporarily resist them were the Xianbei Duan and Xianbei Tuoba tribes who had allied with Sima Yue and Sima Teng.Xianbei Duanbu fought against Liu and Shi many times. "Book of Jin" Volume 63 "Shao Xu Zhuan", Shao Xu originally joined the army for Wang Ying in Chengdu, and was later ordered by Wang Jun to switch to the East China Sea Wang Yue lineup, becoming an important force in Wubi in the north against Hu.After Wang Jun was defeated by Shi Le, Duan Pi of the Duan Department of Xianbei, "send the letter to [Shao] Xu to return to the Yuan Emperor, and continue to follow him." Shi Le attacked Shao Xu, and Duan Pi rescued him, "[Shi] Le Su Afraid of Xianbei", he withdrew his troops and went east.In the same volume "The Biography of Li Ju", Li Ju was stationed in Xingyang, and Liu Kun sent people to lead five hundred Xianbei riders through Li Ju's camp to face off against Liu Yao's army of the Huns. "Tu Ge (the case is a kind of Xiongnu) used to be afraid of Xianbei", when he saw Xianbei soldiers, he left without fighting.According to the biography of Shao and Li, Shi Le and Tu Ge were both afraid of Xianbei. The "Tongjian" of these two events was dated to the second year of Jianxing (314). , Shi is an important force, so it is also the main opponent of the Jiangzuo alliance. When Sima Rui ascended the throne, the leaders and persuaders were mainly those who resisted Liu and Shi in the north, such as Liu Kun, Duan Pi, Shao Xu, Murong Xing, etc. Most of these people had contact with Sima Yue in the past.After Sima Rui established the Eastern Jin Dynasty, he continued to maintain a special relationship with the representatives sent across the river by these people.Wen Qiao, the chief minister sent by Liu Kun to Jiankang, was Liu Kun's relative by marriage.The Wen family in Taiyuan is not a first-rate family, and Wen Qiao himself is not a first-rate figure, and Wen Qiao has no other achievements in Jiangzuo.But after he crossed the river, he became friends with Wang Dao, Yu Liang and others. He had great political influence and his reputation was booming.In addition to his own talent, this must also have something to do with his status as Liu Kun's political representative.The same is true for Duan Pi in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.Liu Kun was harmed by Duan Pi. In the Eastern Jin Dynasty, in order to repair Duan's family, he did not mourn for Liu Kun. Wen Qiao went to discuss it, and then he was allowed.Duan Pi had a younger brother named Duan Shi (Duan Tu), who was a general in Jiankang.At the beginning of Emperor Yuan, Duan Mobo of Xianbei also served as an envoy to Jiangzuo.The representative Shao Xu sent to Jiankang was Liu Yin.Shao Xu's son-in-law, Liu Xia, also sent envoys to be restrained by Emperor Yuan.All the above-mentioned people have played a role in Jiangzuo's political and military activities. When discussing the historical background of Sima Yue's alliance with the Xianbei tribes, and Sima Ying's alliance with Liu Shi to compete against each other, there is one thing that should be paid attention to.According to "Zhang Ji Biography" volume three and three of "Book of Wei", at the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Eastern Jin army attacked Luoyang by the Later Qin Dynasty. Yang Quanqi, the governor of Yongzhou in Jin Dynasty, begged for a teacher from Tuoba Zun, the king of Changshan in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and Zhang Ji was sent to report to Yang Quanqi in the Northern Wei Dynasty.Yang Quanqi referred to Zhang Ji and said: "The harmony between the Jin and Wei Dynasties was in the past, not just today. ... You and the king are a family, and you have no grievances. The rescue of Luocheng relies on Wei. If it is preserved, it will be rewarded generously." If it is taken by the Qiang, it is better to make Wei take...." "Tongjian" recorded this matter in July of the third year of Emperor Anti's Long'an (399). "It is said that Yi Lu rescued Liu Kun when he was rescued", very true.At the beginning of the southern journey, the kings and horses of the Eastern Jin Dynasty hated Liu and Shi on the one hand and did not cooperate with them, and on the other hand, they allied with the Tuoba tribe of Xianbei to control Liu and Shi.This is not only a continuation of Sima Yue's lineup situation back then, but also in line with the ancient tradition of using troops from far away and close attack.Of course, due to the complicated situation of the rise and fall of the northern ethnic groups, the established policy of Yuanlian Tuoba did not continue uninterrupted until the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but the deeds of Yi Lu Yuan Liu Kun back then had a particularly long-lasting impact, and it was still in people's minds at the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty It just works. "Book of Jin" Volume 10 "An Emperor Ji" Long'an two years (398 years) "December has been ugly, Wei Wanggui is honored, and the year is Tianxing." Wang Mingsheng wrote in "Seventeen History Discussion" Volume 45 "Tuoba "Wei Calligraphy" said that the calligraphy of "Wei Wangyi is the honor" in "Book of Jin" is quite different from those of other countries who "arrogate to the throne" in "Book of Jin", so it is asserted that "the words of Jin officials must not So, what the people of Tang pursued and reformed.” I think Wang Mingsheng can certainly consider seeking an explanation from the reforms pursued by the Tang people, and it is also possible to seek an explanation from the historical relationship between the Jiangzuo regime and the Tuoba tribe. "Book of Jin" records events, and looks at Tuoba Wei differently, without derogatory words, and there are many examples.Another place cited by Wang, that is, Volume 9 "Emperor Xiaowu Ji" in the eleventh year of Taiyuan (386), said: "On behalf of Wang Tuobagui, the name was changed to Wei". In the Biography of Lu, it is said that "self-proclaimed Wei", implying the meaning of arrogance, which is different from the "Book of Jin".Therefore, I think that the official documents of the Eastern Jin Dynasty probably have different calligraphy for the events of the Northern Wei Dynasty.Yang Quanqi's words quoted above, saying "Tonghe", "One Family", "Ning Shi Wei Qu" and so on, reflect this kind of historical relationship of equality and alliance, which is similar to "Fenshile's Coin", "Not communicating with Liu and Shi" is just in contrast.The close relationship formed between the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Tuoba tribe based on historical reasons no longer existed in the Liu Song Dynasty. This is because the Jin Ding has moved and the tradition has been broken; Therefore. The rise of troops by Liu and Shi originated from the confrontation between Yue and Ying, which was manifested as the confrontation between the kings, as mentioned above.But once they rise up, ethnic conflicts will gradually emerge.The northern scholars who crossed the river had family feuds with Liu and Shiduo, and Deng You's abandonment of his son was an obvious example.It was very popular for Nandu people to recall their souls and bury their relatives in Jiangzuo. Volume 103 of "Tongdian" volume 103, the second year of Jianwu (318), Yuan Yu submitted a table, please prohibit the burial of summoning souls, and the burial figures listed include Shangshu Pushe Cao Fu, Supervisor Wang Chong, Taifu Sima Liu Qia, etc. All are forbidden.After the Princess Pei of the East China Sea traveled to the south, she also invited Yuehun, the king of the East China Sea, to be buried in Guangling, which was granted by Emperor Yuan.There were so many princes, dukes, nobles and celebrities of the Jin Dynasty who died at the hands of Liu and Shi. Naturally, Jiang Zuo Wang and Ma could not co-operate with Liu and Shi to arouse public anger.It can be seen from this that Jiangzuo's refusal to communicate with Liu and Shi has practical considerations besides historical reasons.If the north and the south send envoys well, the originally weak Eastern Jin anti-Hu regime would not be able to continue to reunite the gentry and refugees from the south, and it would not be enough to comfort the hearts of the Wu surname people. Therefore, the anti-Hu regime itself would lose its foothold and lose The value of existence. Historical reasons and practical considerations forced the Wang and Ma regimes to adopt this attitude of "not cooperating with Liu and Shi".It stands to reason that during the initial construction stage of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Wang and Ma should have shared the same hatred, and they were desperate to take revenge on Liu and Shi.Wang and Ma did hold this attitude on the surface, but in reality they did not. Among the Nandu gentry, Wang Dao is known as "Jiangzuo Guanyiwu", and once made a bold statement of "fighting the royal family to conquer Shenzhou".However, Wang Dao didn't have the ambition of being one-on-one, and he just tried his best to win over southern scholars and collect overseas Chinese surnames in order to ensure peace.Sima Rui's urgency is also to establish hegemony in Jiangzuo, and he doesn't really care about the Central Plains.It is indeed true that Sima Rui's historical statement "Fang Tuo settled the south of the Yangtze River, but did not succeed in the Northern Expedition".In the end of Sima Rui's life and the end of Wang Dao's life, they never took the Northern Expedition as their mission, and they were always passive in resisting Liu and Shi.In the sixth year of Yongjia (312), Shile ruled the army in Gebei and threatened Jiankang. The people Jiangzuo sent to resist were not powerful figures like Wang Dun, but Nanshi Jizhan.Emperor Min's envoys to Jiankang hoped that Jiangzuo would send troops northward to relieve the military pressure on Guanzhong, but they were also rejected.When they failed to guard Chang'an, Emperor Min surrendered, Sima Rui and Wang Dao pretended to be in a posture, threatening the Northern Expedition and not leaving the army, and Shi Chunyu Bo was killed for the crime of "supervising transport and staying", which became an unjust prison in Jiangzuo.They also hindered Zu Ti's Northern Expedition, who had joined the army for Yue Dian, the king of the East China Sea.Zhu Xi said that "Emperor Yuan and Wang Daoyuan never had a history of the Central Plains. To clean up the favors of Wuzhong, they only wanted to feast on Anjiang Tuoer." Dai Ruosi has supervised his army for generations, so you can see how things can be accomplished!" Zhu Xi lived in a peaceful era in the Southern Song Dynasty, so he saw the issue of the Northern Expedition very clearly.It can be said that there are only one people in the royal court of Wang and Ma who really want to "overcome China".Their highest wish is to keep the environment safe and to avoid irritating Liu and Shi as much as possible, nothing else.After that, the overseas Chinese gradually settled down in their homes, and the division between the North and the South was accepted by people. The slogans of the Northern Expedition also lost their original meaning, and often became a means for strong officials to gain authority, so they were always not received by the ruling and opposition parties. unanimous support. Shi Le made peace with Jiang Zuo when he was in his twilight years. Naturally, he considered that it was impossible to destroy the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the interior of the north was unstable.It is commendable that Jiangzuo refused to make peace, and it is also a fact that he did not make peace with Liu and Shi.However, Yuan Xie's words about the Eastern Jin Dynasty "think about the strategy of defeating the enemy day and night", and Qian Daxin's words about his "excellence and self-reliance", both seem to be praiseworthy words, and the historical facts may not be true.
