Dian people gossip about Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui is one of the few figures in Yunnan history, and there are countless stories about his life, including right and wrong. Today, according to the grapevine of Xiao Min Street, a market town in Yunnan, the anecdotes circulating in Wu Sangui are collected as follows for readers.

Yunnan legend: Wu Sangui has a big earlobe, a straight nose, a long upper lip, a sparse beard, long eyebrows and small eyes. When he looks into the distance or around, he looks like a god. Wu Sangui crows every day and goes to sleep in the middle of the night, but she is full of energy and vitality, without any tiredness. There is a scar on the bridge of his nose, low on the left and high on the right, with a little black stripe. You can't tell without looking carefully. Wu Sangui has a habit. When he is in a bad mood, he often touches his nose with his hand. When you talk to him about important things, you must express your views and don't change the subject in the middle. If you don't know what it means, he will keep silent and pretend to cough, and the sound will come out of his nostrils to remind you. Wu Sangui is willing to take in anyone who is capable. Wu Sangui treats people around him as kindly as his own family. Ask him for advice if you have any questions, and he will explain them to you again and again until you understand them.

Wu Sangui is open-minded, open-minded, regardless of new enemies, and does not want to stay, and attaches great importance to friendship. When he is in power, everyone who has contacts with him is willing to look for him. Wu Sangui was a ministry when he was young, but after the demise of the Qing Dynasty, he broke off contact with his descendants. There is a general named Li under his command. He robbed the old house by force. Shi Mao had an old servant who often teased Wu Sangui. Now Shi Mao has to volunteer to ask Wu Sangui for help. Without further ado, Wu Sangui directly ordered Li Shuai to return Mao Zhai and ordered him to pay some apology. When the old servant left, Wu Sangui also gave him fifty thousand gold to help him. Fu is also an old coach in Wu Sangui. He regards Fu, the son of Fu, as his brother. The Francisco Palace is heavily guarded, but Fu can come in and out at any time, and the guards dare not question him. A native of Ningyuan, Yongzhou, Hunan, once invited Zeng Youen to Wu Sangui, and his son Zeng Chuancan visited Yunnan. When he came back, Wu Sangui gave him one hundred and forty-two thousand gold. It can be seen that Wu Sangui is a person who values affection and righteousness.

An official named Su Feng made a deed of sale to Wu Sangui to prove his loyalty to Wu Sangui. The certificate reads: "Su Feng, the magistrate of Chuxiong Prefecture, is a native of Ninghai County, Zhejiang Province, and is now sold to Wang Fan in Pingxi with his mother's surname. On that day, he was rewarded with twenty-seven thousand two hundred pieces of silver. " Paired witnesses Hu and Director-General Fan. At that time, anyone who was willing to sell himself to Wu Sangui wanted Wu Sangui's son-in-law Hu. People in Yunnan often say that there are three virtues in Yunnan: Wu Sangui is a teacher, the scholar-officials are slaves, and Hu is a teacher.

Wu Sangui's soldiers were influenced by him, and most of them were unscrupulous for fame and fortune. A soldier met a rich man he had just met and lied that he had been an orphan since he was a child. Now that he is still young and not sensible, he wants to worship the rich man as his father and let him teach him to be a man. The rich man also wanted to follow Wu Sangui's example and recruit talents, so he readily agreed. So he chose a good day to accept his son's gift. At first, the soldier was respectful, and the rich man was very satisfied, as if he were his own father, and he always supported him financially. Before long, the soldier came with his wife. A few days later, the soldier took a group of friends to his door. The rich are gradually finding it difficult to support their expenses. Let them go, shame, don't let them go. I really can't afford them. In the end, it can only bleed heavily. I begged them to leave after giving them some money. At that time, the rich people in central Yunnan were keen to steal their sons, but in the end, they were all dumb and ate coptis, and they couldn't say how bitter they were. Even many ethnic minorities living in the mountains are rich, and many people have been cheated.

Yan ertai, whose name is Wen Ding, is a scholar in Kunming. Zhang's men were castrated after they occupied Kunming. After Sun Kewang was defeated and overthrown by the Qing government, Jane Yitai became a monk in the peaceful Huqiu Temple. Later, he was hired by Wu Sangui to manage the house in Francisco Wang Fu. He is knowledgeable and humorous. When Wu Sangui is angry, as long as he says a few words about it, Wu becomes angry. After Wu Sangui put down the rebellion, General Zhao Liangdong took him to the palace, saying that this was Wu Sangui's big housekeeper. After the trial, the property of the imperial palace was looted by the Qing soldiers, and it was obvious that no one dared to hide it.

Wang Si, a businessman in Jiangsu, has done many illegal things in Guizhou by virtue of his hometown relationship with Wu Sangui. Gan Wenkun, governor of Yunnan-Guizhou Province, was in charge of hearing Wang Si's case, demanding that he return the house, beauty, jade and silk he had robbed, and then deport him. Although Wu Sangui is the king of one party, there is nothing he can do.

Zhao Tingbiao of Yanfa Road in Yunnan likes to write poems. When the West Temple in the south of the city was completed, Wu Sangui gave a big banquet to entertain guests and Yunnan dignitaries. Wu Sangui asked Zhao Tingbiao to write a poem about King Kong on the spot, and Zhao blurted out: "King Kong is a mass of mud, bared its teeth and bullied the city. You said that you are a good person, dare to take a bath with me? " Wu Sangui laughed and pretended as if nothing had happened. In fact, he knows that Zhao Tingbiao is alluding to himself. There's a poem in which a person volunteered, including the sentence "I was poor in Chu and was sealed by Han". Wu Sangui was very happy and ordered to reward him. Wu Sangui wrote the poem Bai Mudan, and Zhu Guozhi, the governor of Yunnan, wrote the last poem. Zhu Guozhi forced the provincial judge Li Xingyuan to write the last poem. Li Xingyuan couldn't refuse, but said helplessly, "If you can't write, it's no different from you. I can't be martial, no different. " Zhu Guozhi turned red and walked away.

There are three treasures in Wang Fu, Wu Sangui, one is tiger skin, the other is marble, and the third is jewel top. The white and black patterns of tiger skin were obtained in ningyuan county, Yongzhou, Hunan Province, and they are tiger skin known as "evil" animals. The marble screen has two sides, one of which is six feet high. The landscape is natural and has the style of a painter in the Yuan Dynasty. On the other hand, it's a little smaller. There is an eagle on the stone and a tiger under the mountain. Looking at the eagle, the eagle pays attention to the tiger and swaggers; Wu Sangui has an official hat with a big ruby on it, about one inch wide and one inch six long. When placed in the sun, it glows within a few feet like a burning flame.

Wu Sangui's son Wu was taken hostage by the Qing royal family in Beijing. Every time I go back to Yunnan from Beijing to visit my father, Wu Sangui will go out of the city to meet me. Wu is Wu Sangui's original wife, Zhang Suosheng. Zhang is from Kanto. He was thrifty all his life and often lamented, "When I got married, my mother was reluctant to buy me a red skirt. Isn't it fate to live like this today? " Wu Sangui respects her very much and is afraid of his wife. She was in the same boat as Cui Zhiying, the special envoy of Yunnan deployment at that time. When they talk about family affairs in the temple, they often sob and cry.

Wu Sangui has a concubine named Bamian Guanyin, who is a geisha of the late master Li Zongrui. Li Zongrui is notorious for his debauchery in Nanchang. He is the favorite of Eight Faces Guanyin. After the Eight Faces Guanyin was returned to Wu Sangui, it was shared equally with Chen Yuanyuan. He regarded it as two treasures and cherished his feelings and flowers. There is also a concubine named Guanyin on all sides, and love is not as good as Guanyin on all sides. Nevertheless, people who saw the four-faced Buddha with their own eyes said that the four-faced Buddha was as beautiful and charming as a flower. Guanyin around is also a geisha in Li Zongrui. After Li Lao died, she gave it to her colleague Gao An, who dedicated her to Wu Sangui. In the 20th year of Qing Emperor Kangxi (168 1), when the Qing army put down the rebellion in Wu Sangui, Chen Yuanyuan was dead. Eight avalokitesvara belong to Suiyuan general Cai Yurong, and all avalokitesvara are occupied by South China general Mu Zhanba.

As for Chen Yuanyuan's death, it is said that Chen Yuanyuan, a Yunnan native, was smart enough to know that the rebellion in Wu Sangui was bound to fail. He is ready to prevent himself from being kidnapped again. She arranged for people to build more than ten buddhist nun in and out of Kunming, including Jinlian Temple, Miu Fat Monastery Temple, Baiyi Temple, Ziyi Temple and so on. After the temple was completed, a group of women who looked similar to themselves were selected from all over the country to preside over the temple. After Wu Sangui didn't spoil her, Chen Yuanyuan left the San Francisco Palace and hid in the temple. She lives here today and there tomorrow. Over time, no one knows where she lives. Among many nuns who look like Chen Yuanyuan, no one can tell which is the real Chen Yuanyuan. It is said that Chen Yuanyuan is dead, and no acquaintances have seen her body with their own eyes. There is also a saying that Chen Yuanyuan died in a lotus pond, and his body was taken away and buried by villagers. Where is it buried? These stories are unconvincing, and the cause of Chen Yuanyuan's death remains a mystery.

When Wu Sangui was guarding Ningyuan, a general named Wu was seriously injured in the battle, but he didn't shed a drop of blood. When he returned to the barracks, he fell to the ground, unconscious. Guo Ba, an old hand, can predict good and bad luck. Everyone calls him Guo. Damn it. A few days before the war, he walked alone by the river and picked up a dozen stones and piled them in the barracks. Everyone is confused. Seeing that Wu was seriously injured, Guo Ba turned his body over, lay on the ground, and then pressed the stone on him. After two days, Wu's wound began to bleed and people woke up. Wu is an expert under Wu Sangui. He doesn't have many horses, only twenty or thirty armor. Each armor has a formal armor, and seven, eight or nine pairs of armor. Both the deputy and the deputy are people over 20 and under 35. They practice every day unless there is a storm. This unit is equipped with leather helmets, leather armor, knives, arrows and fire bullets, which shows that Wu Sangui attaches great importance to this unit.

Ji Jin, whose name is Shoushou, is from Lijiang. He is a big man with great strength. He can dance an 80-Jin iron bar in the wind, so people call him Ji Jin. Li, the magistrate of Dali, recommended him to the imperial palace, and Wu Sangui tested his physical strength. He can throw a pair of stone lions at the door of the imperial palace. After three or four times, Wu Sangui was overjoyed and named him a samurai. He was proud for a while, thinking that Lao Tzu was invincible. I have nothing to do, and I often wander proudly in the street. One day when I was shopping, my clothes were torn by a peasant woman's bamboo basket. One thousand jins was furious. She reached out and slapped the young woman on the cheek, and the young woman raised her hand to block it. One thousand catties fell to the ground. I guess she met an expert today. She stood up and asked where she was from. The young woman said that she was Yin Jiaqing outside the North Gate, and everyone called her Yin Niangniang. Qian Jin offered to compete with Yin Niangniang, and Yin Niangniang readily agreed to wait for him at home. The next day, Ji Qianjin came to Yin Jiaqing's house to find Yin Niangniang. The children in the village took him to Yin Niangniang's house. Empress Yin has been waiting for him in front of her house. When the season came as scheduled, Yin Niangniang pointed to two rows of wooden stakes that had been inserted in the ground and said to him, "Let you pick a row of wooden stakes first and kick them down with your feet." At first glance, there are thirteen piles in each row, and the stakes are about seven or eight inches from the ground. So he asked, "How deep is it buried underground?" Empress Yin replied, "Three feet." Ji Jin was full of confidence, so he lifted his foot and swept it hard. Only nine of them were kicked out, and the rest were safe. Empress Yin smiled and said, "What a pity! What a pity!" Qian Jin said to her unconvinced: "Then you try?" Empress Yin lifted her foot and kicked, and all 13 wooden stakes floated out of the ground. It took her one thousand catties to stop. Later, Yi Qianjin went to Hunan with Wu Sangui, volunteered to cross the river, got bogged down and was shot by Qing soldiers.

Wu Sangui has a cousin named Wu, who lacks discipline and becomes a hooligan. After guarding Yunnan, Wu Sangui came to see him. Wu likes to make friends with people who steal chickens and dogs.

Ni Rubiao, a Miao nationality in Langya County, Liupanshui, Guizhou Province, was once the deputy commander of Mao. She has great strength. She once beat Wu Sangui for trifles. I went back to my hometown when I was old, because the flood lost everything. Before long, my wife and son passed away one after another, and there was really nothing I could do. Relatives and neighbors advised him to take refuge in Wu Sangui. Ni Rubiao thought that he had been enemies with Wu Sangui in the past, and was afraid to see Wu Sangui being retaliated. Everyone told him that the king of the day never held grudges. Ni Rubiao was desperate, so she had to brazenly go to Yunnan and throw herself into the palace. Wu Sangui was very happy to see him, warmly invited him into the temple, and asked him kindly about his life after his retirement. Then he gave a banquet to entertain him. When he learned that Ni Rubiao was poor and alone, he left him to work at home with a high salary. Ni worked in Yunnan for several months and wanted to go back to her hometown Langdai. Wu Sangui gave him five thousand yuan and arranged for someone to escort him back to his hometown.

When Wu Sangui was in Yunnan, most officials in Yunnan received his gifts. Yuan Maogong, governor of Yunnan, resigned and went home to attend the funeral because of his father's death. When Wu Sangui came to say goodbye, he gave him fifty thousand gold, which Yuan Maogong accepted. Governor Li was ill. Wu Sangui went to see him and said to him, "Mr. Li is poor and can't be tired." In the future, whenever he visits Li, Wu Sangui should bring his own food, so as not to let Li spend money indiscriminately. In the ninth year of Kangxi, Li retired to China. Wu Sangui gave him thirty thousand gold, but Li refused, and Wu Sangui didn't force it. Until he arrived in Zhenyuan, Guizhou, the guards left 30,000 gold on the boat and rode away with a whip.

After being demoted as the governor of Yunnan, he did not change his old habits and arbitrarily eroded or consumed public and private property. The military and civilians had great opinions on him. Zhu Guozhi's insatiable practice was euphemistically persuaded by Wu Sangui, but Zhu Guozhi went his own way. Wu Sangui looked down on him very much, and later had to kill him for something.

Pingxi mansion is large in scale, with many houses, thousands of households and lush trees, which is suitable for princes to live in. Wu Sangui built pavilions in the Emerald Lake near his residence, named it near the flower garden, and built a park in the western suburbs, called Anfu Garden, with thousands of kinds of flowers and plants. There is a fairy flower planted in it, which looks like a hibiscus flower. In one day, colors can be changed into seven colors: purple, ugly white, yin, Mao green, Chen, Si Bai, Wu, Wei Hong, Shen and You Bai. Anfuyuan has a first floor, called Wanjuanlou, which contains many ancient and modern classics. Wu Sangui ordered the opening of a museum to recruit scholars to write books, so that they could celebrate their great achievements. Then, he made a statue for himself in Guobao Temple, which is located under the statue of the cloth bag monk on the left side of the main hall. He wore a Song Huase headscarf and a green robe on his head, with his right hand on his knee and a book in his left hand. Seen from the left, it looks like Guan Gong's expression when he looks at Spring and Autumn Annals with a candle. At that time, Lu, a native of Hubei, went to Kunming as an official as a scholar. Lu is famous for writing poems. Wu Sangui asked him to write an inscription for his statue. Lu wrote a masterpiece about Wu's contribution, which Wu Sangui was very satisfied with. In return, he gave his own geisha.

When Wu Sangui went to Yunnan to be a captaincy, he passed by Lvliang and visited Fu Sergey. There is a camellia in front of the hall of Fusang Temple, which is different from other varieties and is ruby red in camellia. Wu Sangui was very surprised and thought it was a special flower. After Anfu Garden was completed, it was ordered to excavate and transplant in the park. Because the tree has changed its environment, it hasn't opened a flower for three years. Wu Sangui thought that this flower was deliberately snubbing himself and sent it back to Sage, Lvliang. The tree has been moved again and again, and it is not easy to survive. In less than a year, it died. The local people said that the flower was angry because it was degraded by Wu Sangui.

Wang Gongliang used to help people sell vegetables for a living in Liaodong. At first, I was a monitor under Wu Sangui. After the Qing Dynasty, Wu Sangui was awarded the title of General Ren Wei by the Qing government, and later fought side by side with Liu Kunshan and Liu Quan. Wang Gongliang often sighs: "I know I will die sooner or later, just because the people I meet are too kind to me, and I can't betray him from loyalty." After the Qing soldiers entered Yunnan, Wang Gongliang went upstairs and set himself on fire.

When Wu Sangui was repairing Huangyuting outside Nancheng, he dug up more than 500,000 gold pits buried underground.

Wu Sangui made the highest contribution to the Qing Dynasty's entry into the Central Plains. Then on San Francisco, Wu Sangui is the strongest and has the most troops. When Wu Sangui was in Pingdian, he led 53 assistants, 12,000 green flag soldiers and tens of thousands of military households. After the Qing Dynasty in Wu Sangui, it was decided that there would be five crowns in one armor and two hundred crowns in one armor, making a total of fifty crowns, which were under the jurisdiction of the left and right sides. There are four towns, namely, Qianhou, Houzuo and Youzuo, divided into ten battalions, each with 1,200 soldiers, with Wu, Xia Guoxiang, Hu Lingbing, Wang Pingfan and Wang Xu as company commanders. Wu Sangui led troops to suppress peasant uprisings in various places, successively pacified Shaanxi, Sichuan and Yunnan, recaptured Nanming Emperor Li Yong from Myanmar, and suppressed an Shi, a chieftain in Shuixi, Guizhou, so most of them gathered under his door. When Wu Sangui first attacked Yunnan-Guizhou, the Qing court gave him great rights, and he restrained the governor and governor of Yunnan-Guizhou. In the use of troops, the official department and the Ministry of War shall not interfere, and in terms of financial resources, the Ministry shall not delay. The official appointed by Wu Sangui is called Xi Xuan, whose officials are all over Yunnan Province. In the sixth year of Kangxi, Wu Sangui resigned as general manager due to an eye disease, and the Qing court took the initiative to apply for the removal of his power. At this point, Wu Sangui has been promoted to the crown prince, and his son Wu has become an attached horse.

Wu Sangui has been in charge of Yunnan for more than ten years, training every day, and it can be said that the soldiers are stronger than Ma Zhuang. His cronies are inserted everywhere in various traffic arteries and land and water ports. Most of the provincial satrap and company commanders are his confidants, and his son is attached to the horse in the palace. Wu Sangui can find out what is big or small in the imperial court.

In March of the 12th year of Kangxi, Shang Kexi wanted to go back to his hometown in Liaodong to provide for the aged, and made a request for his son Shang Zhixin to guard Guangdong. The Ministry of War discussed and suggested that the title of captaincy be revoked. Geng and Wu Sangui were very nervous. In July of that year, Wu Sangui also applied for taking back the military power to test the court's true intentions towards him. Emperor Kangxi called the ministers of the DPRK to discuss, and Minister of Finance Mishan, Minister of War and Minister of Punishments urged him to cut the vassal. Emperor Kangxi agreed to Wu Sangui's request according to the minister's opinion and decided to arrange Wu Sangui outside Shanhaiguan. Wu Sangui had hoped that Emperor Kangxi would keep him in Yunnan, get the same honor as Wang Muying of Qian Ningguo in Ming Dynasty, and spend the rest of his life in Yunnan. To Wu Sangui's surprise, the command minister secretly summoned his men and plotted against the imperial invasion. Therefore, the outside world is forbidden to communicate with mail in central Yunnan, and only people are allowed to enter and not to leave. It was not until Assistant Minister Zhe Ke Ken and Bachelor Fu Dali personally went to Yunnan to grant the imperial edict that Wu Sangui had to pretend to obey orders, and then privately went to the Commissioner's office to urgently transfer troops to plan the rebellion. Wu Sangui thought that no one in North Korea at that time could compare with himself.

At the end of November in the 12th year of Kangxi, an uprising broke out in the midst of the deployment of troops. Wu Sangui killed Governor Zhu Guozhi, arrested all officials who disagreed with the uprising in the history of investigation, and issued a campaign to various places, claiming that "the world has recruited marshals" and took the second year as the first year of "Zhou". Order all Yunnan people to change clothes and hats, raise long hair and raise white flags. At the swearing-in meeting, Wu Sangui stated to his subordinates the evidence that the Manchu government had betrayed its faith and invaded the territory of the Central Plains by force. He was so sad that he burst into tears. Then, riding a horse in the military academy for three times, waving a long knife for three times. At this time, Wu Sangui was 62 years old.

After the Wu Sangui Uprising, Guizhou Governor Cao, Prefect Li Benshen and Yunnan Prefect responded in succession. Gan Wenkun, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, heard of the mutiny in Wu Sangui in Guiyang, and refused to defend it because he wanted to fight. But the soldiers below the prefect did not listen to his command and led the team to Zhenyuan. Anyone who opposed Wu Sangui was arrested and put to death by them. Samuha, Minister of the Ministry of War and Minister of Foreign Affairs, handled Wu Sangui's move to Guizhou. Hearing this news, he rushed to Beijing to report on1February 12. At this time, the memorial submitted by Cai Yurong, Governor of Huguang, arrived. The news of a bolt from the blue reached Kyoto, which shocked North Korea. The college students demanded that those who suggested quitting the vassal be convicted. Emperor Kangxi didn't agree, but just told him to stop the transmission of imperial edicts to withdraw from Fujian and Guangdong. Later, he announced to the Chinese and foreign countries that he would remove Wu Sangui from all his posts, and sent troops to Jingzhou, Hubei Province to resist Wu Sangui's attack.

When Wu Sangui dispatched troops, he named it "Zhaowu". One of his army staff officers, Xu Liangxun, wrote to Wu Sangui and said, "Zhaowu is not enough, and Zhao is the blade. It is better to change it." Wu Sangui read his letter, sighed and said, "Listen to destiny."

There is a small white turtle as big as a copper coin in Yuemiao Temple in Hengshan, Hunan. I haven't grown up for many years. The local people thought it was an emissary sent by Yue God, so they hid it in a shrine for worship. After Wu Sangui used the title of emperor, he came to Hengyang, Hunan Province, and chose Emperor Daoji as an auspicious day to worship the gods. On a whim, he decided to use the white turtle to predict the future direction, so he put the map on the table and let the white turtle stumble on the map. The white turtle walked around, but did not cross the boundary between Yuezhou, Changde and Lizhou. Instead, it turned back and stopped in Yunnan. Wu Sangui led his ministers to worship for three times, all three times. Therefore, after Wu Sangui's rebellion, he only called it "Marshal All Recruits" and took the word "Big Week" as the date, but he never dared to proclaim himself emperor.

In August of the 14th year of Kangxi, Wu Sangui led an army to Hunan and stayed in Changsha. /kloc-In autumn and July of 0/6, I arrived in Hengyang, Hunan. /kloc-At the beginning of the spring of 0/7, men rushed to persuade Wu Sangui to proclaim himself emperor, in order to meet the demands of people who opposed the Qing Dynasty and regained their sight all over the country. Everyone thinks that Hengyang is a battleground for military strategists and should move its capital to Hengyang. Wu Sangui took everyone's advice. On the first day of March in the seventeenth year of Kangxi, an altar was built at the foot of Hengshan Mountain. After worshipping heaven in the southern suburbs of Hengyang City and acquiring land in the northern suburbs, he became emperor, renamed himself "Zhaowu" and changed Hengyang into Tianfu. Recruit hundreds of officials, enfeoffment generals, issue new calendars, and hold Yunnan-Guizhou provincial examinations to attract outstanding talents from all over the country. When Wu Sangui proclaimed himself emperor, he was too late to replace the yellow glazed tile on the roof of the palace, so he painted it with yellow paint. Thousands of houses were built and temporarily used as courts to prevent officials from paying tribute to the monarch and his subjects when it was windy and rainy.

After Wu Sangui proclaimed himself emperor in Hengyang, he immediately called, Wang Xu, Hu and other leaders to Hunan to attack Yongxing. Ilib, the governor of Hunan, and Huck Mountain, the deputy governor, were killed in succession. Prince Jane and General were both hunted by Wang Xu and Hu. Seeing the critical situation, Emperor Kangxi decided to personally expedition, urge and boost the relieving power. But no one could have imagined that when the Qing army was at a critical juncture and faced with life and death, Ma Bao and other generals suddenly led the army to Hengyang. It turned out that Wu Sangui died in Hengyang on August 15th, so he called people to Hengyang for business. After this change, the rebel situation turned sharply. In October of the seventeenth year of Kangxi, Sun Wukong of Wu Sangui rushed to Hengyang to send out obituaries. He inherited the throne and changed his name to "Honghua". /kloc-in October/February, Wu Shifan took Wu Sangui's body back to Yunnan.

When Wu Sangui sent his troops to revolt, some generals said that he would cross the Yangtze River quickly and send his troops north. Some generals said that they would go straight to Nanjing, cut off the Yangtze River and let the Yangtze River cross the river. Some generals said that they would send troops to Hanzhong and Guanzhong areas to defend Lushan and Hanguguan and compete with the Qing army. Because of his advanced age, Wu Sangui is determined to stick to the Yunnan-Guizhou base area. When Hunan was captured, the troops were ordered not to cross the river. They think that even if they can't recover the whole country, they can rule by crossing the river. Therefore, they can't drive from south to north every year. Qing soldiers came around, Wu Sangui suddenly died of illness, and the generals plotted for no reason. Xia Guoxiang advocated abandoning northern Yunnan to compete for the world, but Ma Bao disagreed. Everyone agrees that the current strategy is to stick to Hunan and rely on the natural barrier of Dongting Lake to compete with the Qing Dynasty. In the confrontation between the two armies, the generals of the Qing army plotted against each other, which led to Wu Yingqi's manslaughter of several generals. Some company commanders secretly took refuge in the Qing army by boat, and soldiers also surrendered in Lizhou by boat. The princes and princes of the Qing Dynasty successively recovered Yuezhou, Changsha, Changde and Yongzhou, and Wu Shifan had to retreat to Guizhou. Then Guizhou and Sichuan were captured by the Qing army, and Wu Shifan had to return to Kunming. When the Qing army attacked Yunnan, Wu Shifan ordered Guo Zhuang to defend Qujing with an elephant array. The Qing army made progress in five attacks, and Guo Zhuangtu trampled on his own army in turn, and the rebels were defeated. Guo Zhuangtu fled back to Kunming. After this war, Wu Shifan never had the capital to compete with the Qing army.

When the Qing army approached Kunming, Wu Shifan quickly moved Wu Sangui's coffin. No one knows where Wu Sangui's coffin is buried except Guo Zhuangtu and others. Cai Yurong, Zhan Mu, Zhao Liangdong and Qi Xin searched and dug Wu Sangui's grave together in Yunnan, but they didn't know if it was true. People in Yunnan said that it might be true that all the tombs were dug up. Thirteen bodies were dug up one day and scattered around after cremation. It is rumored that Wu Sangui's real bones are actually buried outside the iron wall.

Wu Sangui's ancestral grave is in Kanto. Some geologists say that the geomantic omen in Wu cemetery is either rich or expensive, but Xuanwu Mountain has three broken sections, which is a pity. Strangely, Wu Sangui's family was under his father Wu Xiang, who was the company commander of Jinzhou in the Ming Dynasty. Only Wu Sangui died of natural causes due to illness, and all others died. The local branch asserted that this was the reason why the ancestral graves were broken.

Note: Luo Yangru's ancestral home is Zhaoping, Guangxi, and he was born in Qian Qing. His father, Luo Shifu, was hired as an aide because of his affinity with Cen, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, so he grew up in Kunming and traveled around with the change of his father's workplace, and he also had a wide understanding of Yunnan.
