Why did Nanming persist for only a few decades, but the Southern Song Dynasty persisted for hundreds of years?

The situation in Nanming and Southern Song Dynasties was similar. After the loss of a large area of land in the north, they all transferred their political power to the south. However, the results of these two systems are completely different. After the Southern Song Dynasty arrived in the south, it quickly stabilized and stood for a century and a half. After Nanming arrived in the south, it was never stable again. Finally, 40 years passed and it will soon be over.

Since the situation was similar at that time, why was the outcome so different?

First, the blow is different. Only the state of Jin suffered in the Southern Song Dynasty. Although there were also peasant uprisings from China, such as Zhong Xiang and Yang Yao. However, these peasant uprisings did not cause much trouble and did not win the support of more people. When the Southern Song Dynasty only faced the attack of the Jin State, because the Jin State invaded the Han people, it was relatively simple in public opinion propaganda. Everyone has only one tune: "expel Land Rover and defend the country." So will the imperial court, the literati and the common people. Conservatives who surrender are called traitors (such as the regime of puppet Chu and Qi Wei); Loyal opponents are called national heroes.

It is precisely because of the unified tonality that it is easier for everyone to unite and be consistent with the outside world. Nanming suffered a lot. In addition to the Qing army, there were peasant rebels, and Wu Sangui, an old minister and landlord of the Ming Dynasty, even attacked each other internally. Because there are so many attacks, on the one hand, the attack on Nanming regime is very strong, on the other hand, the tonality is also seriously inconsistent. Who is a loyal minister and who is a traitor? Who should we support and against? Who is Amswf? Who is the teacher? It can be said that the people are completely confused. Without unity of direction and disagreement, spiritual strength cannot be strong. If the spiritual strength is not strong, the battle will naturally not be won.

Second, the support received is different. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, although Song Huizong was greedy for pleasure, he did something to play with flowers and stones. But the Northern Song Dynasty at that time was actually relatively rich. It can be seen from the scenes described in The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival and the events in Tokyo described in love love love that the Northern Song Dynasty was indeed prosperous and stable. Although officials were corrupt and landlords usurped the throne, it brought many contradictions, and also triggered peasant uprisings like Fang La and Song Jiang. However, these peasant uprisings are all local, small in scale and have little impact. It can be said that the people at that time were not very angry with the court.

They believe that the final collapse of the Northern Song Dynasty was only due to the invasion of Jin State, while the royal families of Zhao and Song Dynasty brought them prosperity and peace. Therefore, it is their common aspiration to defend the Zhao and Song royal families and admit that the Zhao and Song royal families are the only masters in the world. Zhang Bangchang took office only a month ago, and as soon as 8 jin j retired, he couldn't wait to give up the throne. It can be seen from here that the status of the Zhao and Song royal families in the hearts of all people at that time was unshakable. Nanming gave people a completely different impression. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, due to successive years of natural disasters, the invasion of the Qing army and the attack of the peasant uprising, exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes were very heavy at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

Coupled with the exploitation of corrupt officials and illegal landlords, it can be explained that at the end of the year, the people were already complaining about the court. This kind of resentment is almost no less than the resentment of the people against the Qin Dynasty in history. In fact, the fighting capacity of peasant rebels in Li Zicheng is not strong. And under the siege of the Ming army, it was almost completely annihilated. However, Li Zicheng only rode 18, and put forward the slogan of "all fields are tax-free" in Shangluo generation, and the team actually grew rapidly to hundreds of thousands. Why are so many people willing to follow the peasants to rebel? This is a manifestation of people's dissatisfaction with the Ming Dynasty.

Not only ordinary people are full of resentment against the Ming Dynasty, but bureaucratic groups are also full of resentment against the Ming Dynasty. The salary paid to bureaucratic groups in the Ming Dynasty was very low, which was actually an important reason for bureaucratic corruption in the late Ming Dynasty. Because if they are not corrupt, they can't live. At the last minute, Chongzhen proposed to raise money from bureaucrats, but the bureaucrats' reaction was very small. It can be seen that bureaucrats did not support the Ming royal family. Nan Ming didn't fully realize this until he arrived in the south. Therefore, Axe King and Zhu Yousong chased many officials, including those who were killed by Zhu Yuanzhang when People's Republic of China (PRC) was founded. But the heart has been lost, and it is obviously useless to do so.

Third, the internal unity is different. When the Zhao and Song royal families moved south, they took a large number of members of the royal family into exile in the north, leaving only Kang Wang as a royal force, so there was only one center. If you want to be popular, you can only be popular in Zhao Gou. The "Liu Miao Incident" wanted to rebel, but there was nothing to support. Zhao Gou's son finally got support. Zhao Gou is not dead. What is the persuasiveness of supporting Zhao Gou's son? So no one supports Liu Miao. In the end, they may fail. In the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, although there was still a serious power struggle in the imperial court, this power struggle was relatively not very sharp.

Moreover, as we said before, people's minds are not very chaotic. So this power struggle did not lead to great consequences. Qin Gui killed Yue Fei. If he did, Yue Fei's sympathizers did not form much resistance. Therefore, Qin Gui was able to control state affairs for more than a decade, thus maintaining a smooth transition. The situation in Nanming is different. There were too many members of the Ming dynasty royal family, and everyone supported one, saying that they were new moons, and no one obeyed anyone, thus forming many regimes. And because the son of Emperor Chongzhen disappeared, many people supported the son of Emperor Chongzhen under the pretext.

Originally, if centralized power became a political power, it might not be able to defeat Manchu. Now that it has been dispersed into many regimes, how can it be an opponent of the Qing Dynasty? In the late Ming dynasty, the power struggle between court officials and everyone was extremely fierce. At the end of this power struggle, loyalty and betrayal have long been separated. Who is a loyal minister, who is a traitor, Yan Party or Lindong Party? Should Wei Zhongxian be killed? Should Yuan Chonghuan be killed? Shi Kefa dictatorship? Everyone's thinking has been completely confused. How could the court ministers have the ability to deal with the Manchu regime when they were still fighting endlessly?

Fourth, the leadership core is different. There was a clear core of leadership in the Southern Song Dynasty, and that was Zhao Gou. Although Zhao Gou compromised and surrendered to Xu Jinguo, he also killed Yue Fei, an anti-gold force, and made such an angry thing. However, we have to say that Zhao Gou is actually a smarter person than a fool. He actually played an important role in uniting all forces and stabilizing the political situation in the Southern Song Dynasty. Nanming regime has no such core. Whether Zhu Yousong or Li Yong, because they are not unique, and their ability is very limited, therefore, they did not play the role of calling on all parties. (Reference:
