Discovered in Japan Wu Sangui’s original anti-Qing essay, revealing the truth about the Qing Dynasty: no wonder Man Ching smeared him

Even the second minister is unworthy, at the lowest end of the chain of contempt. Wu Sangui is the first person in "The Legend of the Adversary".

From the perspective of future generations, it is really difficult to understand Wu Sangui's choice. So what does Wu Sangui think?

Wu Sangui was a heavy minister of Liaodong at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty. He was still loyal when Chongzhen was in his life. He also ignored his uncle’s letter to persuade him to surrender.

However, Dashun Li Zicheng broke through Beijing too fast. Before Wu Sangui arrived, Chongzhen hanged himself. More than 80 members of the Wu family were taken hostage by Li Zicheng.

Wu Sangui was very hesitant during this period. Li Zicheng sent his friend Zhang Ruoqi to lobby.Huang Taiji also wrote to persuade him to surrender himself. Both sides drew in, Wu Sangui was initially inclined to the Han people. According to the records of "Liu Kou Zhi":

Sangui summoned the generals, and said: "The capital is lost, the first emperor is funeral, and Sangui is favored by the country. To serve the country with death, but if you are not a soldier, you can't break the enemy. What will we do?". The soldiers were silent and saw no response. Sangui again said: "The power of the king is great, Tang Tong and others are all down, and I can't stand alone. The envoy of the king is coming, is it to be cut or to welcome?", the generals answered: Only the general's order is to follow. Sangui repayed Yu Zicheng and entered the dynasty.

" Sangui received the grace of the country and should serve the country with death ", Wu Sangui still has a bright mind, but the current situation forced him to choose Dashun.

He summoned soldiers and horses to return to Beijing. On the way, he encountered Wu family members who had escaped from Beijing. He received news that the Wu family had been severely tortured and Chen Yuanyuan was also snatched away by Liu Zongmin.

Is this okay? Wu Sangui immediately returned to Shanhaiguan, executed Li Zicheng's envoy and attacked the Dashun Tang Tong Department.

This behavior is tantamount to Li Zicheng's break, and Dashun important general Liu Minzong led his troops towards Shanhaiguan. Wu Sangui knew that he was incapable of the enemy, so he contacted Dorgon secretly: begs the loyalty words of the lone minister of the subjugated country, join forces to lower the capital, exterminate the invaders at the court, and show the righteousness to China, then our dynasty will report the Northern Dynasty, Is it only Caibo? Will break the ground for reward,I dare not break my promise.

At this time, Wu Sangui still claimed to be "a lone minister of the country," and hoped that he would "kill the gangsters at the court" through the use of the Qing soldiers. My dynasty and the Northern dynasty were very divided, and I promised to give money after the Qing soldiers help. Ground. Obviously, this is not a letter of surrender, but more like a request for help.

Dorgon is also a wise man. He doesn't mention borrowing or not. He just says that Wu Sangui's ruling status will remain unchanged and he can be crowned king.

Wu Sangui was still unwilling at this time, but after the first encounter between Yishishi and Dashun, one of his troops surrendered Dashun. Li Zicheng was able to continue blood transfusions for the Dashun Army, but Wu Sangui’s people could not afford to go one by one, so he finally chose Dorgon.

Wu Sangui mentioned to Dorgon when he descended to the Qing Dynasty that the Yellow River was the boundary, the north was given to Manchu, the south was given to Daming, and the two sides communicated well.

With the participation of the Qing army, Dashun was defeated like a mountain, but Wu Sangui who entered the pass looked like a different person. Originally, the last condition was that China and the north and the south should have one dynasty. It stands to reason that after Li Zicheng was eliminated , He should Kuang Fu Nanming.

However, when Nanming was attacked, Wu Sangui was the main force. Emperor Yongli had already fled to Burma. He still did not let it go, and finally hanged the last Han emperor with a bow. The more he contributed to the Qing Dynasty, the more the Han people spurned him.

After the Yongli emperor was captured, the situation in the Qing Dynasty became more and more stable, and Wu Sangui's utilization value became less and less. In the twelfth year of Kangxi, Pingnan Wang Shang Kexi went to Shu and asked to return to his hometown for the elderly.This is exactly what Kangxi wanted. Kangxi not only approved Shang Kexi's request, but at the same time strove to cut the feudal clan.

Wu Sangui saw that the situation was not good, so he decided to rebel. He called himself "The King of Zhou and the whole world will recruit Marshals" and asked his subordinates to restore the Han costumes and regain their hair.

is the more interesting point. Before the incident, he also sent his troops down to cry his grave to Emperor Yongli. He really cried, and he cried so much that he could not move on the ground and moved all the people present. .

In ancient times, there must be a reason for raising troops, and Wu Sangui is no exception. He published the "Anti-Qing Wen" describing the reasons for his troops. The original version of the essays here has not been seen in the manuscripts of Qing history, and the included ones have also been deleted and modified, and have not escaped the large-scale literary prison of the Qianlong period.

However, in 1958, Toyo Bunko Japan published a set of history books called " Hua Yi metamorphosis ". "_Span2span Huayi metamorphosis " is a historical annal compiled by the shogunate Lin Chunsheng and Lin Shin Atsushi and his sons of the shogunate in Japan. It has been hidden in the cabinet library and has high historical reference value. It was first published in 1958 This world.

The original version of Wu Sangui’s anti-Qing essay is kept here. The content is very long. A few sentences tell the reason for his attack:

This town talks deeply about the Ming Dynasty Sergeant, who ruled Shanhaiguan. For a while, Li Ni advocated chaos, gathered a crowd of millions, and went rampant all over the world.Painful for the collapse of the Queen Lie Yi Yi, miserable! ...In the whole world, there is no righteousness to prosper the teacher and the king to discuss the thieves, it hurts! Guoyuan's husband's verse at all?
This town lives alone outside the pass, exhausted all soldiers, tears and blood, heartache and silent, and has no choice but to sign an alliance with blood, Xu Lu feudal, temporarily borrowed one hundred thousand soldiers from the barbarian, as a forerunner, beheaded to enter the pass, to thank the emperor’s spirit .

Fortunately, the thief escaped from the ice, and Qu Kui gave him the leader, and he was about to choose a heir, and he would also entrust the community to the feudal clan, and cede the land to thank the Yi people. Unwilling to be cunning, then he went against the heavens and backed his alliance, took advantage of my inner emptiness, took control of Yandu, stolen my first artifact, and changed my Chinese crown...

If you want to fight against the north, sweep away the smell, it is the right time for the week, the second emperor of Tian, ​​the eunuch king of the secret society, the third emperor of the secret society, Feng holds the third prince of the first emperor, who is only three years old, is a record of stabbing stock, named Tuogu, and the clan is Lai. Guyin weeping and forbearing, did not dare to act lightly, avoiding living in the poor land, waiting for the time, choosing generals to train, recovering secrets, listening to the ears, beaming horses and staring stars, sharpening the vigilant, and building for thirty years. .....

Wu Sangui meant that he only wanted to avenge Chongzhen through the Qing soldiers, but he didn't expect the Qing soldiers to steal power through their treachery. He originally wanted to fight the Qing army, fortunately I found Chongzhen's young child. In order to recover Daming, he could only endure it. This forbearance lasted for 30 years. Now he has enough strength to continue fighting for Daming.

Therefore, in Wu Sangui’s heart, he has never been sent to the Qing Dynasty, but only for the Ming Dynasty to endure the humiliation. The reason for raising troops is not because he was withdrawn from the clan, but because he has been operating Yunnan for more than ten years. Up.

In early January 1674, Kangxi issued an edict to refute Wu Sangui. There are many contents in it that can correspond to this essay, so the authenticity is very high.

In addition to the Japanese, North Korea also had many envoys in China back then, and their envoys would report back what they saw in China to the king.Then record it. They also included a copy of "Shangshan Sending a Letter to Wu Sangui", which was written by Baylor Shangshan to persuade Wu Sangui to stop. There is a sentence in

: Wang was in the Ming Dynasty, but he was only a general soldier, and the country would not be defeated. He was able to hire soldiers to destroy thieves and revenge the avengers.

The meaning of the sentence Shangshan is very obvious. First of all, the first sentence highlights the difference in identity. It means that you Wu Sangui was also a general soldier in the Ming Dynasty, and you were crowned king in the Qing Dynasty. . Daming was annihilated, you haven't surrendered yet, and we joined Daqing to kill Li Zicheng and avenge Chongzhen. You are already loyal enough.

From the interests and morals, Shangshan faintly praised Wu Sangui, and it also showed that Wu Sangui was only to "revenge the monarch and revenge" the Qing Dynasty. Combining this with Wu Sangui's "Anti-Qing Prose", it seems that he is really a loyal official of the Ming Dynasty, so it is no wonder that the Man Qing emperor came to hack him like that.

Wu Sangui was really a good military player. Soon after he started his army, he almost ruled the river with the Qing Dynasty. At that time, there were many local power groups that responded to him, and he really had the power to dominate the world.

But when he was in full force, he suddenly stagnated, and Wu Sangui was still the emperor in Hengzhou. Then which Ming is the recovery of Ming? Really intriguing.

Wu Sangui died of illness in just over five months after proclaiming the emperor, ending a very controversial life for more than a month. His successor is far from his ability, so in the end the world was taken away by the Qing army.

personally think that Wu Sangui is not loyal to the Qing Dynasty,Perhaps he was sent to the Qing Dynasty for other purposes. On the one hand, he did things for the Manchu to not be wiped out. On the other hand, he was waiting for the opportunity to accumulate strength;

but he was not loyal to the Ming Dynasty either , Otherwise he would not pursue the death of the last Nanming emperor in Burma, nor would he proclaim himself the emperor without authorization.

Wu Sangui's true loyalty is himself, but the price of this loyalty is too great.
