Plough house describes the tragic situation, just like the whole land has been plowed through! In this war initiated by the Ming army, Nuzhen, the ancestor of the Qing Dynasty, was almost completely annihilated.
Jianzhou Jurchen is a descendant of Jin people who perished in the Northern Song Dynasty. They live in the northeast of China. Jianzhou Jurchen is the closest one to the Ming Dynasty border and the most civilized one, and has entered the farming society.
Although there are Jurchen tribes such as Hercynian Jurchen and Savage Jurchen in the north, they are much weaker than Jianzhou Jurchen.
In the Ming Dynasty, Judy conquered the Northeast, established the Jianzhou Wei Guan District, and appointed Jurchen to manage it. Later, the method of "divide and rule" was adopted, which separated the right guard of Jianzhou from the left guard of Jianzhou and called it "Jianzhou Sanwei" with the original Jianzhou guard.
After the civil fort incident, the national strength of the Ming Dynasty declined. Li Manzhu, the leader of Jianzhou Wei, joined forces to establish Zhangzhou Sanwei, rebelled against the Ming Dynasty and began to harass and invade Liaodong area.
Of course, Nuzhen's invasion of the Ming border was also related to the rigid tributary trade system of the Ming Dynasty. Every time the number of tributes, visitors and commodities is limited.
As the Ming dynasty blocked the way to make money through their trade, people had to rob. However, Jurchen didn't keep her word, and gave many preferential policies before the Ming Dynasty. But when they really had a chance to rob money and grain, they couldn't help it, and then apologized to the Ming Dynasty. This is simply a capricious rogue.
As for how to solve this batch of nuzhen, there were two main factions in the court at that time. Advocates believe that jurchen is out of control and should be taught a good lesson. Pro-Fu faction thinks that Nuzhen rebellion has been aroused, so they should be given more preferential treatment so that they will not make trouble again.
Both schools have their own reasons. Later, after an investigation in Liaodong, Wang quickly became a staunch advocate and impeached.
There is nothing wrong with Ma Wensheng, a main battlefield and a main trip. But when Zhu Jianshen saw Wang Zhi's letter, he immediately locked up Ma Wensheng. It can be seen that Zhu Jianshen himself is a hardcore hawk in his bones.
In the third year of Chenghua, Zhu Jianshen ordered the suppression of Jianzhou Nuzhen, and the order was: "Destroy its nest and its species will be extinct". The word "unique" is basically an order of genocide.
Zhao Fu, a general, was appointed to lead 50,000 troops, and the soldiers were divided into three ways to suppress Jianzhou Jurchen. At the same time, Zhu Jianshen ordered North Korea, a client country at that time, to send troops and fully cooperate with the Ming army to suppress it.
After a month of encirclement and suppression, the Ming army beheaded more than 630 people and captured more than 240 people. Li Manzhu (later renamed "Manchuria" because of his name, that is, "Li Manzhu's Jianzhou Jurchen Department") and his son were beheaded by the North Korean army.
Another leader, Dong Shan (the right-back leader of Jianzhou, the fifth ancestor of Nurhachi, the grandfather of his great-grandfather), was also captured by the Ming army. On the way to the escort, Dong Shan tried to escape being killed.
In this war known as the Battle of Chenghua, the Jurchen of Jianzhou was devastated, and Zuo Wei's old camp in Jianzhou was set on fire, with bodies everywhere. The right-back also suffered heavy losses.
Zhu Jianshen eliminated two of the most important ancestors of the Qing Dynasty with an iron fist and ruthlessness. Later, after the Qing Dynasty unified China, it began to compile the Ming history, so it is not surprising that Ming Xianzong, Zhu Jianshen and Wang Zhi were hacked in the Ming history.
