The Japanese royal family was bound to be dissatisfied with Taira Kiyomori's authoritarian behavior and caused him many troubles at the central level.
The other established nobles were also very dissatisfied with the Ping clan's massive encroachment on their interests, and formed a strong local resistance force.
The Taira clan, which relied on samurai to make its fortune, gradually became aristocratic after taking power. Their own interests and the interests of the samurai class gradually drifted away, which naturally made the samurai class who originally supported the Taira clan feel dissatisfied.
Under the threat from three aspects, Taira Kiyomori, as a clear-minded political figure, obviously felt the huge threat.
He needs the intervention of a force to help him consolidate the foundation of his rule, unite tightly around him, and help him resist the threats of the three resistance forces.
They need to be rich, have a large number of people, have knowledge, and preferably have experience in struggle. That would be the most beautiful thing.
The flight of a large number of local elites from the Southern Song Dynasty and Goryeo gave him this opportunity.
This group of people has money, people, knowledge, and knowledge of governance, and they have no foundation when they first arrive. They are like lonely ghosts, with no local connections and lack of foundation.
They urgently need a Japanese authority to provide them with shelter.
And Taira Kiyomori also needs a force that does not belong to any political faction to help him.
What’s even more wonderful is that although these elites in the Southern Song Dynasty and Goryeo could not speak Japanese, they all understood Chinese characters.
Although daily communication does not necessarily use Chinese, the top elites of the three countries all have a profound knowledge of Sinology. Even if it is difficult to communicate immediately and without language barriers, they can communicate in Chinese characters.
Ping Qingmeng could not only read and write Chinese characters, but also communicate in Chinese to a certain extent. So when the first group of people from the Southern Song Dynasty and Goryeo came, he quickly sent people to contact them and met with several of their groups. The leaders reached an agreement.
These people from the Southern Song Dynasty and Korea could settle down in the areas under his control, be given household registration, and become Japanese citizens. The outstanding ones could also serve as officials under his command and enjoy special treatment.
Now the people fleeing from the Southern Song Dynasty and Korea were happy.
After a period of running-in, Taing Kiyomori appointed fifty elites from the Southern Song Dynasty and Goryeo to official positions under his command. Some stayed in the central government, and some went to the local Lingzhiguo to hold positions. In short, they gave full play to their talents. Function, showing value.
The sudden entry of this group of foreign elites caused a huge impact on the forces opposing Taira Kiyomori. They realized that Taira Kiyomori could use such a group of elite talents to squeeze out their own people and further consolidate their power without worrying about having no one available.
This is not good news.
They tried their best to oppose, but it was useless. The window of communication with the Southern Song Dynasty had always been in the hands of Taira Kiyomori. The largest port in Japan was under his control. The merchant ships of the Southern Song Dynasty were willing to come here, and he was also willing to accept these escapees.
During the second and third times when the Ming army went south, each time, a large number of the Southern Song Dynasty's powerful and wealthy people and landlords and scholar-bureaucrats were afraid of the Ming Dynasty's revolutionary policy, and had no idea that the Southern Song Dynasty could defeat the Ming Dynasty. There was no hope, so I applied oil to the soles of my feet to moisturize them.
Their arrival undoubtedly brought Taira Kiyomori a larger number of available talents and loyal fans who relied entirely on themselves, and the property they jointly dedicated to Taira Kiyomori was also a large amount.
Both sides got what they needed and cooperated happily, which helped Ping Qingmori squeeze out many people who had different dreams with him, further consolidating the foundation of Ping Qingmori's rule.
Taira Kiyomori was very happy.
But he has always been worried.
Especially after the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty in the eighth year of Hongwu, his worries became even more serious. He was very worried that the news of his appointment of these Southern Song fugitives would be known to the Ming Dynasty that controlled the Chinese mainland.
He was worried that Ming Guo would have a bad impression on him after learning about this matter, and even used this as a reason to take some actions against him, thereby affecting his overall layout.
He has not completely subdued the opposition and has not yet successfully ruled the entire country of Japan. If the powerful Ming Dynasty intervenes at this time, it will be tantamount to draining the bottom of the cauldron.
This was something he had been worried about.
In his opinion, reusing those who escaped from the Southern Song Dynasty and those who escaped from Goryeo was a dangerous move. If used well, the deadlock could be broken. If used poorly, everything would be lost.
But the good thing is that within a period of time, the news brought back by Japanese businessmen from Quanzhou was not bad news.
The Ming Dynasty seemed not to have noticed Japan at all, or had no time to pay attention. The Ming Dynasty emperor went to the north and south to expand his territory, but he did not care about Japan. There was no news from even the official envoys. He seemed not to care at all whether Japan was willing to become a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. .
This surprised Taira Kiyomori.
However, as time went by, "Hongwu Political Commentary" also spread to Japan and became known to Taira Kiyomori.
When the refugees from the Southern Song Dynasty and the Koreans arrived in Japan, they roughly stated the reasons for their escape. This was the first time he heard the word revolution, and he didn't quite understand its connotation.
In his opinion, Su Yonglin's act of eradicating the old forces was infinitely close to eradicating dissidents. This should be the behavior that should be followed when changing dynasties and changing agents. Is there anything strange about it?
It can only be said that Su Yonglin is more ferocious, wants more complete power, and cannot tolerate the existence of people who oppose his opinions at all.
This powerful and violent behavior could actually succeed. Taira Kiyomori was very happy and felt that he had the possibility of success.
He hates people who oppose him very much.
So he decided to target Su Yonglin, set about further consolidating his power, and eliminate more people who opposed him, until all those who opposed him were eliminated, and the entire Japan prostrated at his feet and worshiped.
But he was wrong, terribly wrong.
It was not until he personally read the first and second volumes of "Hongwu Political Treatise" that he realized why these guys from the Southern Song Dynasty and Goryeo had to flee to Japan to feel at ease.
If it were just a simple change of dynasty, the survival rate of these guys should be very high.
As long as they go through the transformation of the city to the king's flag, they can naturally survive. They were popular and popular in the previous dynasty, and they can still be popular and popular in the current dynasty.
But that was not the case in the Ming Dynasty. The foundation of the Ming Dynasty was the common people, and its founding philosophy was anti-exploitation and anti-oppression.
What they opposed was not opponents of Su Yonglin's own power, but the entire ruling class and their ideas and methods of rule.
They were against the times on all fronts.
As a heroic figure who was born as a warrior but rose to the top of power beyond the nobility and royal family, Taira Kiyomori's cultural background was enough for him to see how terrifying this whole set of theories that destroyed feudal ethics and then established a new order was.
From this point of view, whether it is the Jin State, the Xia State, or the Song State, the enemies of the Ming State are definitely not only defeated by the Ming State's force, but also the Ming State's ideological attack is equally terrifying.
The rebels in the past were only dissatisfied with the old order, but could not bring about a new order. What they longed for was to replace the old people in the old order and reach the top of the order, rather than change the order.
The Ming Dynasty really changed the order. They smashed the old order, established a new order, and continued to make the Ming Dynasty stronger and have more powerful military power.
Then radiate to the outside.
They overturned one country after another, supported people with the same ideas in one country after another, and connected together through thoughts, transcending the limitations of family blood and nationality, and reaching a new union.
This is very scary.
This also frightened Taira Kiyomori.
