At the end of the Eastern Jin Dynasty,the society underwent great changes and there was a more serious crisis in the gatekeeper politics,and the senior scholar clans gradually lost their military initiative.At the same time,the lower ranking clans with force gradually rose to power.From Liu Laozhi to Liu Yu,low-level clans continued to emerge as a threat to the dominance of the senior clans.This forced the senior clans to change accordingly,and the relationship between the civil and military forces also changed quietly.As a representative of the lower clans,Liu Yu stood out during this turbulent period.He also went through several stages,each of which had a profound impact on his establishment of the Liu Song regime,from his initial rise to fame,overthrowing Eastern Jin clan politics,to establishing Liu Song.Liu Yu relied on rising up against Huan Xuan’s rule and gradually took the political initiative.During this period,there was a huge conflict between the high ranking and low ranking clans,while within the low ranking clans,there were also certain differences.For this reason,Liu Yu adopted a series of means to seize the moment and vigorously fight against the forces opposing him,such as the execution of Liu Yi,Zhuge Changmin,Xie Hi,Xi Sin Shi and others.After this,Liu Yu’s power grew further and his political influence reached its peak after the successful Northern Expedition against the Later Qin,and it was only natural that he established Song on behalf of Jin.During the process of Liu Yu’s replacement of Jin,the relationship between civil and military also changed with Liu Yu’s success from the initial strong civil and weak military to the rising status of the military class,and finally,at the beginning of Liu Song,the relationship between civil and military reached a relative balance. |
