“内先协和”与关中本位政策

"Internal Concord First" and the Guanzhong-centered Policy

西魏大将贺拔胜提出的"内先协和,顺时而动",是理解关中本位政策的钥匙。宇文泰执政时期,其政策基本是按照这八字方针实施的。"顺时而动"是对宇文泰不顾与东魏的实力差距,急于求战的批评,教训来自河桥之战和邙山之战的失利。两次战役的失利也暴露出武川集团内部的摩擦。"内先协和"就是先巩固好内部团结。贺拔胜无疑强调武川集团内部的协和,宇文泰基于在关陇社会的经验,更加强调武川系势力和非武川系势力的融合。从大统九年之后宇文泰一系列政策的制定和行为综合考量,关中本位政策是一种强调内部融合的政治文化实践。

The key to understanding the Guanzhong-centered policy is the proposal ＂internal concord first, going with the times and taking action＂ raised by Heba Sheng, a great general of the Western Wei. While Yuwen Tai was in power, his policy was implemented, basically following the proposal. ＂Going with the times and taking action＂ is the criticism made on Yuwen Tai＇ s urgency to make war regardless of the military strength gap between the Western Wei and the Eastern Wei. The lesson is drawn from the military reverses in the Heqiao battle and the Mangshan battle. The military reverses in the two battles also reveal the internal con- filets in Wuehuan Group. ＂Internal concord first＂ means to consolidate the internal unity first. Undoubtedly, Heba Sheng lays stress on the concord within Wuchuan Group, while Yuwen Tai, based on the experience in Guanlong society, places more emphasis on the integration of Wuchuan Group＇ s forces and non-Wuchuan Group＇ s forces. Considering Yuwen Tai＇ s policies and conduct after the year of 543, the Guanzhong-centered policy is a kind of political and cultural practice which emphasizes internal integration.
