"lizhi",the emperor of "Tang",spent his lifetime on the tributary system in East Asia,and the tributary relationship between "Tang" and "silla" is an important part of it。From 650 to 654,the tributary activeties between them are 8 times。At the beginng,his North-East Asia policy was uncertain,so keep Silla's envoys to "pull"。It is worth mentioning that,these tributary activeties are promoting Silla's internal reform。lizhi's attitude is going through a "cooling down" process。Compareing to "warm" silly,he's relatively prudent and rational。"Tang" has a negative policy in Northeast Asia,and the "silla" is positive because of its considerable disadvantage. Silla is facing the danger of national expansion。This period,Silla went to "Tang" six times,although the names of it were varies,but their real intention was asking for help。"Koguryo" think that "Tang Taizong"'s death provided an opportunity to improve their bad relationship。In fact,"Koguryo" were try and try again from 646 to 652。However,the historical facts proved that these efforts are failure。"koguryeo","Packche" and "Wo" were strengthening their relations。650-654,"silla" was enthusiasm because of t the situation in Northeast Asia against them.,while "Tang" shows restraint and reason。Tang decided to stop all military operations in Northeast Asia with the implementation of a negative policy in Northeast Asia,which is determined by Tang's internal affairs。Facing silla,the Tang's policy was negative,although the attitude is fine.The most direct reason was the death of "Taizong"。During this period,the Tang was not only in Northeast Asia policies and the relationship between them,but also in the strategy of all the country。The new emperor was facing many challenges and pressures。In fact,the greatest challenge and the pressure was politic。Lizhi,who is the third monarch in "Tang",were facing a strong and fragile country。Although "Tujue" was defeated,the socio-economic wasn't fully recovery from wars。Lizhi was dealing with this problem in the frontier from west to east and it reflected that "Tang" was not stronger。Lizhi was too young,and "Tang" was not stronger,so interior instability in the Tang Dynasty was first。It means all unnecessary foreign war should be stopped and focused on domestic politics,the North-East Asia is no exception.The implementation of the Tang Dynasty negative policy in Northeast Asia reflected their relationship was that Silla was indifferented,so that both the North-East Asia policy and the relationship were decided by the internal affairs。655-668,their relationship was warming,the background of which was Tang's positive policy in Northeast Asia。Internal problems were eased,Tang was much stronger,Lizhi was beginning to pay attention to border issues.West line is important, but the issue of East can not be ignored.The development of the situation in Northeast Asia let lizhi has impulse to sent troops.It on a series of successful political integration to provide a favorable condition of military operations.During this time, the King of Tang decided to aid silla and attacked "Koguryo",to complete the East Tributary System once and for all becase of the safe of Northwest Frontier.Lizhi's troops mean "Tang" came back and the military alliance was restored, their relationship was warming.The arrogance of Tang and the beware of Silla after this closed were obvious.Despite these notes of discord,harmony was the mainstream of theirl relations.The background of it was the activite policy in Northeast Asia policy.Silla was respectful and humility,that country sent troop or grain as actively cooperate.Tang to active,Tang Emperor active troops in the Northeast.Tributary on Silla still in respectful humility,sent troops to actively cooperate with the grain.Gognryeo was Demised in 668,they had lost a common enemy,which was why the breakdown of their relationship and the later war.In a series of wars,the military allies were in the same boat,not only to ensure the victory of the war,but also promote relations to a new height.With a positive attitude,their relationship was warming,the country gived a good condition for all the wars including east war and provided a strong back for diplomacy.The surface of sent troops to aid was decised by the Northeast Asia policy. However,from a macro point of view,as for Lizhi,the positive in northeast Asia is a part of all the active frontier。It reflected that his power with the death of his uncle and his first wife to the enhance and improve of the overall strength of "Tang"。From 650 to 655,"Tang",the domestic community was stability,politic was clean,economic known as "yonghui" was being developed,which laid a solid foundation for his aggressive policy。The reasons Lizhi sent troops to aid silla were complex:like the situation in northeast Asia,Lizhi himself,and it's more importantly that those were in line with the national strategic interests,as well as the successful external interference in the impulse and capital after the internal development。Not the internal affairs of the capital,there is no policy change in Northeast Asia from negative to positive。Not a positive policy in Northeast Asia,there is no relationship between them as the situation of positive interactions,the study of their relationship shouldn't depart from the macroeconomic background。After the downfall of "koguryeo",the relationship between them plays a more important role in Northeast Asia。Losing of a common enemy,together with other complex reasons,they could't be friend again with northeast questions and more problems as a result of hidden domestic issues。At the last,Tang was negative after a little struggle in the East and had to give a part of fruit of the war to the new "silla"。During this time,their relationship was rapidly cooling。In the progress of war, the tribute created the opportunity for reconciliation.The backdrop of this cooling is extinction of "koguryeo" and "Packche".Lizhi was negative.This negative policy was conniving silla as a vicious circle. The tributary system need protect of strong policies,when a Challenger emerged,the central kingdom need a strong policy to defend the dignity and prestige of this system. However,when Tang's internal affairs was unable to support the strong policy,the honeymoon period was over.The Emperor's new policy tend to negative,scholars believe that it was caused by "Tibet".The Northeast was not the root cause of the negative in the east,the fundamental reason was strength of "Tang".It mean the country had not power to fight at the same time on two fronts.In time of war,domestic can support a specific war without condition.However, the aim of war was internal affairs.Lizhi wanted to look after "both inside and outside",but it was just a dream.Sometimes "inside" was first;sometimes "outside" was first。It's always a difficult choice。"Lizhi" eventually chosed the former,he was no choice。...
