In the 25th year of Jiajing (1546), Qi Jiguang was in charge of reclamation in Dengzhou Health Center. At that time, the Shandong coast was burned and looted by the Japanese army. Qi Jiguang had the intention of killing thieves, and wrote the poem "I hope Hou is not my intention, I hope the sea is flat".
In the thirty-second year of Jiajing (1553), Qi Jiguang was appointed as the director of the Ministry of Health on Zhang's recommendation, and managed 25 health centers including Dengzhou, Wendeng and Jimoying to defend against the Japanese pirates along the Shandong coast.
In the thirty-fourth year of Jiajing (1555), Qi Jiguang was transferred to Zhejiang Dusi as a general, guarding Ningbo, Shaoxing and Taizhou.
The battle of the enemy's south expedition to Cengang
In the thirty-sixth year of Jiajing (1557), the Japanese invaded Yueqing, Ruian, Linhai and other places, and Qi Jiguang led the troops to rescue them. However, Qi Jiguang's crime was not cured before the court was cut off from the road. Then, the figurehead made an insurrection in cengang, and Qi Jiguang joined forces to besiege. But it didn't come down for a long time, so the court dismissed Qi Jiguang, Yu and others and let them kill the enemy for their crimes. The enemy troops stationed in cengang could not resist the attack of Qi Jiguang and Yu, and planned to escape. In the thirty-seventh year of Jiajing (1558), the enemy built a big ship and prepared to sail at night. Yu and Qi Jiguang took the opportunity to attack, sank the Japanese ship, and the rest of the party fled to southern Fujian. The Japanese who escaped from cengang burned, killed and looted in Taizhou. They impeached Qi Jiguang for deliberately letting the Japanese in cengang go, and were suspected of communicating with the Japanese. Was about to be punished, but because of pacify's contribution, Qi Jiguang was reinstated, and let Qi Jiguang guard Shoutai, Jin and Yan counties.
After Qi Jiguang went to Zhejiang for his post, he found that the officers and men in Weifang had average combat capability, while the officers and men in Jinhua and Yiwu were tough, so Qi Jiguang recruited 3,000 people and trained them into an elite army under the guidance of Qi Jiguang, which was later called "Qijiajun". Qi Jiguang made laws according to the geographical characteristics of the southern swamp, and equipped its troops with firearms, weapons, warships and other equipment, so the Qijiajun became famous all over the world.
Battle of Taizhou
In the 40th year of Jiajing (156 1), the Japanese army attacked Tao Zhu and Qitou on a large scale. Qi Jiguang led an army to defend Tao Zhu, and Yulong Mountain defeated the Japanese. Qi Jiguang has been chasing Yanmenling. After the enemy fled, he took advantage of his weakness to attack Taizhou, and Qi Jiguang took the lead in beheading the enemy leader. The remaining group was cornered and all fell into the Gualing River and drowned. However, the Qitou enemy invaded Taizhou again, and Qi Jiguang led an army to destroy it in Xianju. After the victory in Taizhou, Qi Jiguang was promoted to the third class. Then, the enemy of Fujian and Guangzhou flowed into Jiangxi for insurrection, and Governor Hu Zongxian could not pacify it, so he asked Qi Jiguang for reinforcements. Qi Jiguang led the army to break in the nest, the enemy rushed to Jianning, and Qi Jiguang led the army back to Zhejiang.
Battle of Fujian
In the forty-first year of Jiajing (1562), the Japanese invaders invaded Fujian and jointly captured Shouning, Zhenghe and Ningde. Japanese invaders jointly captured Xuanzhong from Nan 'ao, Fuqing and Changle in Guangdong, and successively occupied Longyan, Songxi, Datian, Gutian and Putian. The enemy was so powerful that local loyalists dared not attack. Hu Zongxian ordered Qi Jiguang to lead the troops to suppress thieves. Qi Jiguang led the troops to attack Yuheng first, and the waterway around Yuheng was narrow and difficult to pass. Qi Jiguang ordered the soldiers to fill the trenches with a pile of straw, because Heng defeated the enemy and beheaded more than 2,200 people. Then, Qi Jiguang pursued her victory, killed Fuqing, destroyed the cattle farm and ended the enemy's lair. The enemy figurehead hurriedly fled to Xinghua, and Qi Jiguang pursued all the way, destroying more than 60 enemy strongholds and beheading countless people.
After Qi Jiguang pacified the enemy in Fujian, he moved back to Zhejiang and went to Fuqing. Encountered a small number of Japanese pirates who landed from the Japanese depression, Qi Jiguang led the troops to attack and beheaded 200 people. After several battles, the enemy in Fujian-Guangzhou area was almost killed by Qi Jiguang.
Battle of Xinghua
After Qi Jiguang returned to Zhejiang, the new Japanese invaders waited for an opportunity to invade. After their numbers grew, they attacked Xinghua, but they didn't attack after being besieged for several months. At this time, Liu Xian sent eight people with letters to Xinghua to deliver information. When they were stopped by the enemy, the enemy put on the costume of Liu Xian's emissary, tricked the city gate open, and took the opportunity to occupy Xinghua City. After the enemy captured Xinghua, Liu Xian led an army to approach Xinghua, but because of the serenade, Liu Xian dared not attack the city without authorization, but was impeached and accused. Yu, the company commander of Fujian, also said that an army was needed.
In the forty-second year of Jiajing (1563), the imperial court took Tan Lun as its right capital, and the governor of Fujian came to help, but all of them commanded Ouyang Shen to die in an ambush by the enemy, and the enemy occupied Pinghaiwei. In April, Qi Jiguang led Zhejiang soldiers to come to support. After Qi Jiguang arrived, Tan Lun immediately prepared for the general attack on the enemy, first erected fences in various sea passages to stop the enemy's return, and then Tan Lun thought that Yu was the right army, led by Tan Lun, and Qi Jiguang was the pioneer, besieging Pinghaiwei, which was solved in one fell swoop and beheaded more than 2,000 people. Qi Jiguang and others led the troops in pursuit, the enemy road was blocked, and more than 3,000 people were killed. Therefore, Liu Xian and others revived Xinghua. The imperial court recorded Qi Jiguang's previous cross-island war and the exploits before and after, and took Qi Jiguang as the commander-in-chief and co-knower, with a total of 1,000 households, not Yu as the company commander.
Battle of Xianyou
In February of the 43rd year of Jiajing (1564), more than 10,000 people were besieged by remnants of the enemy and fought fiercely for three days. Qi Jiguang led the troops to clear the gap, and the enemy failed. Qi Jiguang led an army to chase Wang Cangping and beheaded more than 100 people. Many people fell off the cliff and died. Thousands of Dang Yu people fled and occupied Caipiling in Zhangpu. Qi Jiguang is divided into five outposts (ancient military units). Soldiers climbed up the rocks, engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, and even captured and killed 100 people. The rest of the Japanese army looted fishing boats and fled to the sea, then invaded Funing. Qi Jiguang led Li Chao and others to defeat, chased Yongning and killed more than 300 people. In the same year, Chaozhou pirates assembled 20,000 people, and Wu Ping, a pirate, took advantage of it to plunder Chaozhou. Yu led his troops to defeat the enemy, Wu Ping surrendered, and Wu Ping was stationed in Meiling. But it didn't take long for Wu Ping to reconcile more than 10,000 enemies defeated by the Ming army. Together with Lin Daogan and Zeng Yiben, they successively landed in Zoumaxi and Bopu 'ao, and looted Nancunbao and Port Village. Qi Jiguang immediately led the army to encirclement and suppression. Wu Ping gave up Meiling, which had been holed up before, and fled to South Australia with more than 100 * * ships to build a Dazhai defense.
In the forty-fourth year of Jiajing (1565), Yu led the troops in the water army, Qi Jiguang led the troops in the infantry, and the two armies encircled Wuping. Wu Ping lost his reputation and fled to Phoenix Mountain alone.
In the first year of the Northern Tatars (1567), Wu Shi went to Ming for advice and suggested that Qi Jiguang, Yu and others should train in the area of Jiyumen. However, after discussion, it was decided that only Qi Jiguang could be appointed. So the court appointed Qi Jiguang as the assistant to the battalion commander. At that time, Tan Lun had just recruited 30,000 infantry in Liao and Ji regions and 3,000 soldiers in Zhejiang, and asked Qi Jiguang to train them, and got permission from Mu Zong. In the second year of Qin Long (1568), Ming Muzong asked Qi Jiguang to train in Jizhou, Changping, Baoding and other places, and officials below the company commander were under the control of Qi Jiguang. After Qi Jiguang arrived, there was a company commander Guo Hu in Jizhou, and Qi Jiguang was the prime minister, so the court transferred Guo Hu and took Qi Jiguang as the company commander to guard Jizhou, Yongping, Shanhai and other places. The former and Qi Jiguang broke even, and they became the right viceroy. When northern Man Zi invaded Qingshankou, Qi Jiguang led an army to repel it.
In the first year of Wanli (1573), the little prince of Beiman and the fox Dong conspired to invade, and their reward request to the Ming court was rejected. So they burned and looted in xifengkou. When Qi Jiguang learned of this, he led a riot and almost captured the fox Dong alive. In the summer of the same year, the fox Dong invaded Taolin and was repelled by Qi Jiguang. Later, Dong's nephew Ang invaded and was defeated again. Fox Dong invaded the frontier many times, but instead of taking advantage, he suffered heavy losses, so he offered a reward, and the court promised to reward him every year.
In the second year of Wanli (1574), Chang Dongang invaded the border again, but he couldn't pass the pass, so he forced his uncle Dong Chang to invade the border. Qi Jiguang led the troops to defeat him and captured Dong Changbao alive. Dong Fox and Ang led 300 clan members to Qi Jiguang Pass to confess their crimes. Dong Fox is bald in plain clothes and crying for forgiveness. After consulting with his men, Qi Jiguang decided to accept his surrender. Dong, the fox, put the looted people back and vowed not to rebel again. From then on, Dong Hu and Leon never dared to invade Jiyumen again.
Qi Jiguang's thistle gate was impregnable, and North Man Zi could not attack it, so it turned to invade Liaodong, and Qi Jiguang led the troops to reinforce it, helping Liaodong Li Shoujiang Liang Cheng repel it. The imperial court named Qi Jiguang the Prince of Taibao, and later named him Shaobao.
In the tenth year of Wanli (1582), Zhang, the first official of the imperial cabinet, died of illness. Zhang Dingsi took the opportunity to say that Qi Jiguang should not be placed in the north, so Qi Jiguang was transferred to Guangdong by the imperial court. In the 13th year of Wanli (1585), Zhang impeached Qi Jiguang again, so Qi Jiguang was dismissed and died after returning to China.
Major achievements in military training and formation
Militarily, Qi Jiguang wrote two important military works, namely "New Book on Discipline and Efficiency" and "Practical Discipline in Training". These two books are a summary of his experience in training and fighting, and they are also teaching materials for his training. They have a high position in military science, and are included in Sikuquanshu, accounting for one tenth of military works.
When Qi Jiguang first arrived in Shandong to prepare against the enemy, he found that the Ming army was arrogant and lazy, and the soldiers were not used to fighting. Compared with the enemy who skillfully uses Japanese knives and heavy arrows, the combat effectiveness is too weak. So Qi Jiguang went to Jinhua, Yiwu and other places to recruit 3,000 farmers and personally trained them. This is the early "Qi Jiajun".
(1) Yuanyang array
Because of the mountainous swamps and roads along the coast of Zhejiang and Fujian, it is difficult to deploy large troops, and the enemy is good at ambush and hand-to-hand combat. In view of this feature, Qi Jiguang created a new battle formation, which seems to go hand in hand with the Japanese army, so it was named "Yuanyang Array". This formation, with twelve men as the basic unit and a combination of long and short weapons, can constantly change with the terrain and operational needs. Yuanyang formation consists of 12 people, with the captain at the front and the second two holding a long card and a rattan card. The long card holds a long shield to shield the enemy's heavy arrows and spears, and the rattan card holds a light rattan shield, with javelin and broadsword. Long card players and rattan players mainly cover the rear team to advance, and rattan players can also engage in close combat with the enemy in addition to covering. The other two men hold the wolf's den. The wolf's den is made of bamboo grown in the south. Choose old and strong ones, cut the bamboo ends into sharp shapes, and leave sharp branches around them. Each den is about 3 meters long. The wolf's den uses a sharp blade in front of the wolf's den. Then there are four long gunmen with long guns, two on the left and two on the right, taking care of the shield hand and the wolf hand in front. Followed by short soldiers with short knives. If the long gunman didn't stab the enemy, then the short soldier rushed forward with a short knife to kill the enemy. The last one is the fireman in charge of food. "Yuanyang array" not only makes the spear and shield, long and short closely combined, but also gives full play to the effectiveness of various weapons, and the formation changes flexibly. According to the situation and operational needs, the column can be changed to a horizontal row, and later it can be changed to two small arrays on the left and right or three small arrays on the left and right. When it becomes two small arrays, it is called "two-talent array", and the left and right shield hands follow the left and right Wolf Warriors hands, long gunners and short soldiers to guard their attacks; When it becomes three small arrays, it is called "three-talent array". At this time, wolves, long gunners and short soldiers were in the middle. The left and right shield guards. This change of array is also called "change of mandarin duck array". The flexible use of this array just restrained the enemy's superiority. Qi Jiguang led the "Qi Jiajun", and after the rehearsal of the "Yuanyang Array" method, he dealt a devastating blow to the enemy in the battle with him.
(2) Che Ying
During the period when Qi Jiguang was guarding Jimen, according to the characteristics of northern nomads who were good at cavalry fighting, a chariot camp was established to restrain cavalry, and every four people pushed a chariot, refused horses and placed firearms in it. When fighting, the chariots will form a phalanx, while the "Ma bu" or horse stance just look army will use firearms to carry out long-range attacks. When the enemy cavalry approaches, the infantry will line up in front of the battle line with horse refusal devices and stab them with long guns. After the enemy is defeated, cavalry will be sent to pursue it. Qi Jiguang in the rear of the trench camp, choose the south as the pioneer, to join the guards as the coordinator. The soldiers in this town were in charge of defense, and Qi Jiguang's army was cautious and sharp, which made Jimen the first frontier fortress army at that time.
Build the Great Wall
(1) Jinshanling
The "pirates coming from the south to the north", that is, the intrusion of the pirates in the southeast coast and the harassment of the Tatar cavalry in the northern border, are two major problems that have long plagued the Ming court and endangered Daming Mountain. After Tan Lun and others wiped out the pirates in the south, Qi Jiguang was transferred to the north to defend the Tatars.
In order to strengthen the defense in the north, the Ming Dynasty divided the Great Wall into nine defense zones, in which heavy troops were stationed, called Jiubian Town, and each town was under the jurisdiction of the general staff. Jidong starts from Shanhaiguan in the town and reaches Juyongguan in the west, guarding the capital. It is the most important town among the nine towns, and Qi Jiguang is the company commander of Jizhen. The Great Wall in Zhen Ji Town was built in the early Ming Dynasty. In the sixth year of Hongwu, the general Xu Da was ordered to prepare Shanxi and Beiping, and the general was ordered to make plans. From Huai 'an Hou Hua Yunlong, it is said that from Yongping, Jizhou and Miyun to the west, the pass is 120 and 9, all of them are guarded. In the 14th year of Hongwu, Xu Dafa and Yanshi guarded fifteen thousand one hundred people and built thirty-two passes such as Yongning and Ling Jie. Although the Great Wall was also built during Hongzhi and Jiajing years, it is too simple. The real large-scale construction was completed by Qi Jiguang from Qin Long to the early years of Wanli.
In the process of building the Great Wall in Qi Jiguang, according to the architectural idea of "adjusting measures to local conditions, controlling the blockage with risks", the wall was heightened at the low mountain; Enemy towers are built in places with steep mountains, and barriers, buttresses and horse retaining walls are added in some places, all of which are masonry structures or masonry wood structures, making this section of the Great Wall complete in facilities, firm in construction, rigorous in layout and both offensive and defensive. According to expert appraisal, Jinshanling Great Wall is the essence of the Great Wall in Wan Li, China. Barrier, brick and horse retaining wall are known as the "three wonders" of Jinshanling Great Wall.
(2) Hollow enemy platform
While strengthening the city wall, Qi Jiguang also built a hollow enemy platform. The hollow enemy platform consists of upper, middle and lower parts. The lower part is the base, which is made of big stones and has the same height as the city wall. The middle part is a hollow part. Some of them are supported by brick walls and brick arches, which are connected with each other. Some are supported by wooden columns and wooden floors, and the outside is covered with thick brick walls, forming a large indoor space of one or two floors for soldiers to station and store food and weapons. The upper part is the top of the platform, and most enemy platforms have towers in the center for the soldiers guarding the city to shelter from the wind and rain. There are some platforms on the platform for burning smoke and raising flames to give an alarm, but there are no towers. Qi Jiguang recorded the hollow enemy platform in detail in Xun Zaji. The enemy platforms are different in height and size, and they are horns of each other and help each other. The enemy platform was equipped with artillery, and the Tatar's bow and arrow could not reach the soldiers on the enemy platform, and the cavalry dared not approach the Great Wall under the attack of artillery. Each hollow enemy station has a commander in chief who is responsible for directing the battle.
Equipment invention
(1) Qi's saber
Qijia Dao is an improved Japanese Dao made in Qi Jiguang, which is a weapon specially used against Japanese pirates. The knives used by the Ming army are often cut off by Japanese knives when fighting against the Japanese. Qi Jiguang absorbed the advantages of Japanese swords and improved China saber, which has obvious Japanese style. The curvature of the blade is increased, the width of the blade is reduced, and the curvature of the blade tip is very small. There is a take-up thread in the middle of the blade and a thread on the back of the blade. The thickness of blade tip and blade body remains basically unchanged, and the back of the blade is cut to reduce the overall weight of the blade without reducing the strength of the blade. Qi Jiguang recorded the forging method of this knife in his book Miscellany of Military Training and Military Equipment Solutions. The China National Museum now has a saber of the Qi family in Dengzhou, and the words "Ten Years of Wanli, Qi family in Dengzhou" are engraved on the upper part of the saber.
(2) Wolf Zen
Wolf Mountain is one of the weapons provided by Qi Jiguang to the Qigujun to deal with the enemy. It is two feet thick and one foot five or six feet long. When the Ming army was at war with the enemy, they panicked because they were afraid of the enemy's Japanese knives. Qi Jiguang put an iron spear on the top of a long and knotty bamboo pole, scalded the branches on both sides with fire, poured tung oil on them and coated them with poison. In the battle, although the enemy's long knife is sharp, it keeps cutting off soft branches, and the bamboo joints are deep, which can prevent the pike from penetrating. The branches on the wolf coffin are luxuriant, which can cover the holder. Rushing into the array can protect yourself, which is very lethal. It can be described as both offensive and defensive, and it is called "a sharp weapon to stab the Japanese." (3) artillery
The gun that Qi Jiguang gave to Qi Jiajun was also called "Tiger Squatting Gun", which was named after its shooting like a tiger crouching. The Ming army attached great importance to the use of firearms and specially set up the "Jishen Camp" equipped with firearms. When fighting against the enemy, Qi Jiguang found that there were great shortcomings in the use of the bird's gizzard and the French machine. Although the bird spear is accurate, its lethality is too weak, while the French machine is deadly, but it is very heavy, which is not conducive to carrying. So Qi Jiguang invented the "Tiger Squatting Gun", which is more lethal than a bird's gizzard, lighter than a utensil and easy to carry. And a large number of manufacturing equipment. Art Poetry and Prose
During his busy military career, Qi Jiguang not only wrote military works such as Ji Xiaoxin's Letter and Training, but also left poems such as Zhi Zhi Tang Ji. At that time, he enjoyed the praise of "civil and military officials are so talented, but they rarely get married for a while". The Summary of Sikuquanshu praised Qi Jiguang's poems as "powerful in meter" and "close to the voice of Zhao Yan". Wang Shizhen listed him as one of the eleven famous poets in ancient and modern times. In September of the 10th year of Wanli (1582), Qi Jiguang compiled all his poems and poems over the years into five volumes, namely, three volumes of Heng Yun Draft and two volumes of Foolish Draft, which are collectively called Chatang Collection. Zhizhitang is the three study rooms of Qi Jiguang, the prime minister's mansion in Jizhou, and it is also used for office. (The name "Stop" is based on the meaning of "big animal" in Zhouyi. The hexagram of "big livestock" means that the top is the root and the bottom is the stem. Gen 3 1: 12 is a mountain, so much for it; Doing it for the sky is for health. Its divination means "stop healthy", that is, strong but not impetuous, and stop if you can. ) The library in Shutang is mainly composed of poems, as well as Qi Jiguang's "Oath, Sacrifice, Play, Mourning, Conduct and Answer" and other articles.
calligraphy
Qi Jiguang's calligraphy is fluent and personalized, and the whole work is bold and natural, with bold brushwork and natural charm, which is greatly influenced by Huang Gu's calligraphy style. Express a high-spirited atmosphere. The works reveal his inner calmness and fortitude, and the angular thick lines outline his unrestrained spirit. Qi Jiguang works in poetry and prose, is good at calligraphy, cursive script is graceful and restrained, and his strength is great and heavy, which does not diminish the spirit of the sages in Jin and Song Dynasties. There are many calligraphy works handed down in the world.
Character evaluation Zhao Xian: ① I heard that Qi Jiguang's preparations were laid in the south, and a wall was built along the coast with Yantai in the middle. From Huaidong to Guidong, there is nothing worse. The garrison is so strong that the enemy dare not go to Lu Yun. (2) Qi Jiguang, the company commander of Ji Town, near the northern border of Lu Kou, ordered 30,000 troops to Nishan, Ji County, with the power of the sovereign, so the army was afraid and did not dare to disturb the people.
"A Record of Ming Shenzong": A bloody battle wiped out the Japanese army, honored Fujian and Zhejiang, defended Shandong and looked at Youyan.
Huang Daozhou: General Ji Guang, life is different. Five and three orphans are all them. Forced by the enemy, defended by the southeast. Because the training of the three armed forces, short and long are complementary. Parallel driving between north and south is conducive to dangerous walking. A famous mandarin duck can last for a while. Defending the east of Zhejiang, the island lost and roared. Seeing the flag open, it is easy to cross the sea. So, I was punished and informed of my dirty laundry. Save Jiangxi, and behead when you arrive. If you go to Tian Niu again, you will be very careful. The enemy was trapped in Shizhou and called the light into the Ministry. Because I asked for training, I thought it would be good. Please hire another car camp and think it's a fairy. The Ministry of Magic holds it, but only denies it. In Jiangling, we only look at eighty-nine, protect less and respect more and respect famous mountains.
Gu Yingtai: Ren Huan was the capital of Zhejiang, and Qi Jiguang drove the Bohai Sea. All kinds of countries are dry cities, enough to destroy this eclipse.
Zhang: ① Obey Guangwei's strict orders, reward and punishment are trustworthy, and dare not die. All the people with big ceremonies are big names. Conduct is inferior to that of Guo Yi. The great master, a veteran, worked conscientiously, made great achievements after the light, and repeatedly destroyed the great master, making him famous. (2) Qi Jiguang fight, fame shock the world. However, when Zhang and Tan Lun were in charge of state affairs, Zhang Dingsi, Zhang and others became useless people. Let everyone know.
Zhao Yi: Ruan Ting's knowledge is just like that of Guo () and Qi Jiguang. It has a poetic title, but not surprisingly, it is solid.
Zheng: The ancients were generals who were brave and good at fighting. Can get people, can know people, can love people, can control people; Save the opportunity of weather, observe the importance of geography, conform to harmonious feelings, and elaborate on the safety situation. All the gains and losses in ancient and modern times, the meticulous changes in formation methods, the whimsy of military strategists and the ingenuity of equipment are all familiar. For example, Sun Wu and Li Mu in the Spring and Autumn Period, Han Xin, Ma Yuan, Ban Chao and Zhuge Liang in the Han Dynasty, Li Jing, Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi in the Tang Dynasty, Zong Ze and Yue Fei in the Song Dynasty, Qi Jiguang and Yu in the Ming Dynasty were all well-equipped people who knew books, history, art of war, geographical location and well-equipped, just like Taixi today.
Cai Dongfan: The deviant system won the battle, but the clown would rather run away. If you can be a famous person, why does Yadong make trouble?
Li Dongfang: Zheng He, Yu Qian, Zhang, Qi Jiguang and He are all immortal heroes.
Anecdotal allusion Qi Jiguang's wife Wang is a tigress. Unofficial history said that she was "brave and tactful in military aircraft, and often succeeded in assisting the public". There are three things that are most widely known about Qi Jiguang's typical case of being afraid of his wife:
One is that Qi Jiguang was inspired by his subordinates and ordered Qin Bing to take his wife into the barracks. The generals in the tent are all armed with swords, and they are murderous and want to give their wives a run for their lives. After a while, his wife came to the camp. She didn't show the slightest fear when she saw the battle. Instead, she looked dignified and shouted at Qi Jiguang: "What do you want me to do?" Hearing this, Qi Jiguang got a fright and knelt down and said, "I want to invite my wife to the parade."
Second, Qi Jiguang couldn't control his instigation and rushed into the room to frighten his wife with a sword, so as to boost her husband's outline. At this time, his wife just woke up from her nap and immediately shouted, "What do you want with a sword?" General Qi was shaking with fear, and his sword fell to the ground. He quickly replied, "I want to kill a chicken for my wife." Hearing this, the lady said, "Don't shout loudly when you kill chickens in the future." Qi Jiguang repeatedly said yes.
Third, all the children in Mrs. Wang's life died, so Qi Jiguang secretly married three concubines, Chen, Shen and Yang, and gave birth to five sons. Originally, my wife didn't know that she had been living in peace, but she knew that someone accidentally let it slip and was found by Mrs. Wang, who took a knife in broad daylight and wanted to settle accounts with Qi Jiguang. Qi Jiguang, who rushed to the scene, put on armor in Mrs. Wang's clothes and went to her bedroom to find her. As soon as we met, we cried and said that there are three kinds of filial piety, and no son is the biggest. The pressure of not having a son is too great. Mrs. Wang also relented when she saw this. After throwing the knife away, she cried and cried. Then she adopted one of my sons as her own son, and things calmed down.
The story of Qi Jiguang's beheading is widely circulated in Fujian and Zhejiang.
According to Xianyou County Records, Qi Jiguang led Qi Jiajun to resist Japan in Haimen area. Once, about 3000 Japanese pirates landed on the coast of Haimen, ready to rob in Linhai and Xianju. Qi Jiguang ordered Yin Qi to ambush the troops in Huaguanyan area at the junction of Shuanggang and the west of the city, and sent troops to pretend defeat, leading the enemy to the upper boundary ridge. After all the enemies entered the encirclement, the two armies attacked again and annihilated them in one fell swoop. Therefore, Yin Qi is young and eager to fight. Before all the Japanese pirates entered the encirclement, he ordered the drums to charge. As a result, some Japanese pirates escaped.
Qi Jiguang went back to camp to raise money, and because Yin Qi didn't act according to military orders, he ordered the launch of beheading. Chen Dacheng and other generals knelt on the ground, demanding lenient punishment, and saving his life would make atonement. Qi Jiguang refused, saying, "I am the commander-in-chief of the First Army. If my son commits a military order, he can't kill him. How will he lead the troops in the future? Who else will carry out the orders of the army? " So, at the wellhead of Baishuiyang Street, Qi Jiguang will kill Yin Qi.
Later, the local people missed Qi Gongzi and built a mourning hall for him in Changfeng Ridge. It is said that the remains of this hall still exist today.
Although the story of "Qi Jiguang's beheading" is fictional, it is widely circulated, and folk artists have also adapted it into operas such as Fujian Opera and Shaanxi Opera, which are widely sung.
