周世宗柴荣“天下一统”的治国方略与淮南之战

Chai Rong’s Unifying Strategy of Running a State in the Five Dynasties and the Battle of Huainan

五代后周国世宗柴荣以天下一统思想为指导,制定和实施卓越的国家治理方略。通过改革,经济迅速恢复,国家正常运转。旋即开始发动具有统一意义的南征北伐,其中最具历史意义的是征讨南唐的淮南之战。周唐两军鏖战南唐滁州、寿州、扬州三大防御枢纽,历时两年半终获全胜,将周唐国界从淮河南移至长江。柴荣经四年多征伐,战绩显著:西取秦凤四州,南取南唐江淮十四州,北取契丹三州三关。柴荣不幸英年赍志以没,但是柴荣“统”的思想成为北宋结束割据开创统一局面的战略指导思想。
