Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

On July 1659, the seventeenth year of Qianyuan (), Xi Rimo, the general who conquered the south, led his army from Pingshan County, Mahu Prefecture to Xuzhou Prefecture to govern Yibin. Yibin produces wine, such as "Chongbi Wine" and "Lychee Green Wine", which were already famous throughout the world during the Tang Dynasty. At this time, the old general was as drunk as if he was drunk. It was not the wine that made him forgetful, but the good news one after another.

First, with the support of Jinjiang Marquis Cao Xun, Weining Gong Hao Chengyi, Guangping Marquis Chen Jian and others, Zhu Xuan, the Qingfu King of the Ming Dynasty, claimed to be the governor of Qiongzhou and successively captured Meizhou and Chengdu. He also sent envoys to contact the guards, expressing his willingness to form an alliance with David, and even to become a vassal, just to keep Ming Zuo. At first, Xi Rimo was still worried about fraud. After all, to the Han people, the Mongols and Manchus were foreign races. If they refused to surrender to the Qing Dynasty, would they be willing to surrender to the guards? After careful investigation, I felt it was true. Li Guoying, governor of Qingchuan and Shaanxi, has ordered generals Feng Keyou and Xu Xueyi, guerrillas Yang Fuding and Zhao Wenkui to lead four thousand troops southward from Songpanwei; Tongchuan general Yu Xiangui, Shunqing Dusi Zhang Kui, Nanchong garrison Gao Panlong, Pengzhou garrison Cai Rui and Qian Zong Li Liangyu led 6,500 troops from Tongchuan to the west and attacked Chengdu from two sides. Although Zhu Xuan's troops were numerous, they were mostly a mob. They suffered successive defeats and lost Maozhou, Anxian, Jinzhu, Shifang, Hanzhou, Jianzhou and Ziyang counties. They had to retreat to the capital city of Chengdu. The situation was critical. Haha, if you come to vote in a critical situation, you will naturally have to add some conditions. Xi Rimo made a strong request: An alliance is okay, but King Qingfu must surrender to the Kingdom of David. Unexpectedly, His Highness agreed immediately. This means that the Guards have an extra barrier to the north of Yazhou, their base camp in Sichuan, making it much safer. In order to strengthen this barrier, Xi Rimo ordered people to send a batch of captured military supplies of the Qing army to the Ming army, hoping that they could resist longer.

Then, Paribpala Gesang, who was sent to Jianchang, received good news. With the help of An Taining, the commander of Jianchang Weitu, the Guards successfully defrauded Jianchang and killed Di Sanpin, the Hou Di of Qingshucheng. However, just a few days after I was happy, Kelsang received another letter. This time it was a letter asking for help. He said that Wu Sangui, the Western King of the Qing Dynasty, led an army of 100,000 (an exaggeration) from Kunming to the north to attack Jianchang. He asked the general to send troops to rescue him quickly. Then Jianchang will be difficult to protect. You think I don’t know about this 100,000-strong army? Wu Sangui only had 60,000 troops in the sky. Still, it's a happy event. Wu Sangui was a powerful general in the Qing army and one of his main opponents when he went south. If he could be contained in Jianchang, his eastward attack on Luzhou, Yongningwei, Bozhou, and even his southward march to Guizhou would be much smoother. So he immediately sent Kangrong general Lalm, Diaomen general Gao Junxi, and Zishiguan guerrilla Jiang Qifeng to lead an army of 6,000 to aid Jianchang. He also secretly told Lalm not to defeat the Qing army, but only to use Jianchang. The terrain near Changchang can contain Wu Sangui's troops.

What made him as happy as drinking wine was not the above two pieces of news, but a letter from Zhenxiong Mansion. The letter was jointly written by She Baoshou, the governor of the Qing Dynasty Lin Xuanfu, and Long Hongxun, the deputy envoy of the Sichuan Ancha Division. The content of the letter was that the Manchus were cruel and David was benevolent, and they wanted to abandon the dark side and join the bright side. If you don't work in vain, if you have conditions, you can live a long life and ask for the hereditary Xuanfu envoy of Yongning and the commander-in-chief of Yongning town. Long Hongxun asks for the hereditary magistrate of Zhenxiong. At first, the old general didn't pay much attention to these two people, thinking that they were just two little chieftains. How much trouble could they make? Only after listening to detailed introductions by Sichuan Chief Envoy Fu Yuanxiu, Army Envoy Pan Lin, Tianquan Sixth Recruitment Envoy Gao Jitai and others who were familiar with Sichuan people's sentiments did he realize how deep the background of these two families was.

There have been many chieftains in the southwest since ancient times. Among them, Dongchuan, Wusa, Wumeng, Mangbu, Luzhao, and Shuixi are mainly Luoluo (Yi) people. Famous chieftain families include the Shuixi'an family, the Yongningshe family, and the Zhenxionglong family. The Wusa An family, Wumeng Lu family, Dongchuan Lu family, Wuding Feng family, Zhanyi An family, Xundian An family, etc. Long Hongxun is the head of the Long family in Zhenxiong. The Zhenxiong area in Sichuan was the residence of Mangbu, the leader of the Yi tribe, during the Wude period of Emperor Gaozu of the Tang Dynasty. His descendants were "named Mangbu" after their ancestral name. The Tumu Long family has been in power since the time of Emperor Shizu of the Yuan Dynasty. In 1382, the Mang tribe "returned" to the Ming Dynasty, and the head of the family, Long Feisha, was appointed as the hereditary prefect. The chieftain of the Long family has ruled Zhenxiong for more than years and has a profound history. She Baoshou has an even greater background. He is the head of the She family in Yongning. His father She Chongming was almost unknown to everyone in the Ming Dynasty.

The Yongan She family has served as the Xuanfu envoy of Yongning Xuanfu Division for generations. In the first year of Tianqi (1621), Yongning's Xuanfu envoy She Chongming and his son She Yin rebelled against the Ming Dynasty, occupied Chongqing, trapped Zunyi, defeated Luzhou, entered Chengdu, and surrounded Zhu Xieyuan, the governor of Sichuan, in the city; Guizhou Water Xi'an chieftain An Bangyan raised troops to respond to She Chongming, which opened the prelude to the She'an Rebellion. The She'an Rebellion lasted for nine years from the first year of Tianqi (1621) to the second year of Chongzhen (1629). It affected the four provinces of Sichuan, Qian, Yunnan and Guangxi, causing more than one million military and civilian casualties. Sanshan died, and Lu Qin, the prime minister of the military affairs of Sichuan, Guizhou and Huguang, who was known as the top general in the southwest, also committed suicide in defeat. This catastrophe seriously weakened the Ming Dynasty's national power and ended with the deaths of She Chongming and An Bangyan.

After the She'an Rebellion ended, the Ming Dynasty changed the Yongning Xuanfu Division of the She family's territory in Yongning to return it to Liuliu, and compiled Yongning and Linzhou areas into Jiuli Forty-eight Tuns, and gave them to Pingshe's meritorious generals and Yi people who had surrendered, respectively. They were given the titles of general, guerrilla, and garrison, and were called garrison officers, and garrison training was established. However, the power of the She family was not completely eliminated. The second son of She Chongming, She Baoshou, fled to Zhenxiong Mansion and joined the Zhenxiong Long family. The major chieftain families in the southwest are intertwined and often linked to each other by marriage. For example, She Baoshou married the sister of Long Hongxun, the prefect of Zhenxiong. At the request of the Long family, the Ming Dynasty let She Baoshou go. In fact, at this time, the Ming Dynasty was no longer able to fight a major war in the southwest, and gave She Baoshou the empty post of minister of Xuanfu as a sign of leniency.

Later, when the Qing army went south, chieftains such as Shuixi Xuanwei Si Ankun, Youyang Xuanwei Si Ranqi, Biaolin Xuanfu Shi Shebaoshou and other chieftains surrendered to the Qing Dynasty. She Baoshou had a grudge against the Ming Dynasty, and he was willing to surrender to the Qing Dynasty. However, what he most desired was to restore the hereditary status of the She family in Yongning Guard. He repeatedly requested to be the commander-in-chief of Yongning Guard, but the Ming Dynasty had already changed the territory in Yongning Guard. After returning home, how could the Manchu emperor be willing to give up this hard-won achievement so easily? Yan Ziming was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Yongning Guards, but he still only gave Shebaoshou the empty post of minister and minister of Xuanfu. She Baoshou inherited his father She Chongming's ambition, and all he cared about was restoring the family's glory in Yongningwei. How could he be willing to do so? Often complains. Also dissatisfied was his brother-in-law Long Hongxun. The Long family of Zhenxiong had served as the local magistrate of Zhenxiong Prefecture for generations. However, the Qing government only gave Long Hongxun the honorary title of Deputy Envoy of the Sichuan Inspectorate. The so-called honorary title was to see It's a job that looks decent but doesn't hold much real power. This made Chieftain Long of Shizhen Zhenxiong very uneasy. What did the Manchus want to do? Could it be that he wanted to imitate the Ming Dynasty and change his native land in Zhenxiong Mansion? The more he thought about it, the more he became afraid, and the more he became afraid, the more he thought about it. Long Hongxun was often so worried that he couldn't sleep well, worried that the Long family's more than 400 years of foundation in Zhenxiong would be destroyed by his own hands.

No matter whether it is worry or anger, it is useless in the face of absolute strength. The Qing army is so strong that even the Ming Dynasty fell in their hands. How can two small chieftains be able to shake it? If the guards hadn't come over, the two of them wouldn't have dared to resist. It is said that this great state of Wei is also powerful. Even the Qing Dynasty gave him three points to invade Sichuan. It was like entering an uninhabited country and successively occupied Jiading, Xuzhou, Mahu, and Jianchang. Together, She Baoshou and Long Hongxun took advantage of the chaos in the world to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and join the imperial guards, using the power of the Kingdom of David to restore the glory of their ancestors.

After knowing the background of the Yongning She family and the Zhenxiong Long family, Xi Rimo readily agreed to recommend She Baoshou as the hereditary Yongning Xuanfu envoy and Yongning town commander-in-chief, and Long Hongxun as the hereditary Zhenxiong local magistrate. (End of chapter)
