After the demise of the Tang Dynasty, the history of China once again entered the era of unification. In the vast areas of the north, the result of the warlord melee was the emergence of three powerful dynasties, namely, Hou Liang, the later Tang Dynasty, the later Jin Dynasty, the later Han Dynasty and the later Zhou Dynasty. At the same time, nine smaller separatist regimes emerged in southern China, namely Wu, Nantang, wuyue, Chu, Houshu, Nanhan, Nanping and Fujian. There are northern Han forces in the Hedong area in the north. History says: "Five Dynasties and Ten Countries". In addition, there were some coexisting regimes in the border areas during this period, mainly including Liao (Qidan) in the northeast, Gaochang in the northwest, Tubo and Dali in the southwest.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, Zhu Quanzhong (formerly known as Zhu Wen), a traitor to the peasant uprising army and an envoy of Tang Xuanwu, wiped out many separatist forces. After the initial unification of the Yellow River Basin, in 907, Tang Aidi was abandoned to stand on its own feet and its capital was Kaifeng, which was called "Hou Liang" in history. After the establishment of Hou Liang, Zhu Quanzhong, the Emperor Taizu of Liang, continued to compete for hegemony with Li Keyong, a warlord in Hedong and a noble in Shatuo, and the arrogance of local buffer regions did not change much. In 9 12, after Zhu Quanzhong was killed by his son, the political situation became more chaotic, and the result was destroyed by the later Tang Dynasty. Hou Liang ruled *** 17.

In 907, Hou Liang appointed Gao Jixing as the envoy in Jingnan. In 924, after the Tang Dynasty, he was named King Nanping, all in Jiangling, only Jingzhou, and only in Tang Mingzong, he was returned to Zhou Xia, making him the weakest among the ten countries. He died in the Northern Song Dynasty in 963.
