If Liu Zongmin does not occupy Chen Yuanyuan, will Wu Sangui surrender to the Manchus?

Mondo History Updated on 2024-01-31

In some literary and film works, Wu Sangui surrendered to the Manchu Qing Dynasty because his beautiful concubine Chen Yuanyuan was occupied by Liu Zongmin. But is that really the case?Today, we're going to talk about the love-hate relationship between these three people. How did Chen Yuanyuan of "Qin Huai Bayan" become Wu Sangui's woman?Jiangnan in the last years of the Ming Dynasty, on the one hand, was the hunger and cold of the people at the bottom, and some people were sold to Qinglou;On the other hand, there is the Jiangnan gentry, who lives a life of drunken gold fans. Chen Yuanyuan should belong to the former, Chen Yuanyuan's mother died early and was raised in her uncle's house, and was sold by her uncle to sing in Suzhou Liyuan because of her good looks. Chen Yuanyuan sang well in the pear garden, and it is said that he has reached the realm of "the viewer's soul is broken", and the color and art are unique, and it is difficult to think about whether he is popular, and he was finally rated as one of the "Qinhuai Bayan". At that time, Jiangnan scholars were all vying to have a relationship with Chen Yuanyuan, but although these sons and brothers were attracted by Chen Yuanyuan's beauty and talent, it was impossible to marry a family, even if they dared to marry, their parents would break their legs.

According to records, Gong Ruofu once ransomed Chen Yuanyuan as a concubine with a lot of money, and then he was not tolerated by his wife, so he let her leave, and later Chen Yuanyuan met Mao Xiang again, and the two lingered for a while, but there was still no good result. When the country was broken and the family died, although Qin Huai Bayan was good-looking, it became a burden, and it was difficult to have a good end, in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen, Chen Yuanyuan was robbed into Beijing by Chongzhen's father-in-law Tian Hongyu and became Tian Hongyu's family music actor. At that time, the situation in Beijing was very difficult, on the one hand, the peasant army led by Li Zicheng was menacing, and on the other hand, the situation in Liaodong was turbulent. Tian Hongyu invited Wu Sangui to a banquet and let Chen Yuanyuan play, Wu Sangui was immediately attracted, "I don't feel that his mind is moving". Tian Hongyu took the opportunity to give Chen Yuanyuan to Wu Sangui, and Wu Sangui also smiled, about Wu Sangui and Chen Yuanyuan, there should be no emotion, although it is said that heroes love beauties since ancient times, but unfortunately Wu Sangui is not a hero, and Chen Yuanyuan was born in a green building, so he doesn't match at all.

Why did Liu Zongmin forcibly occupy Wu Sangui's concubine Chen Yuanyuan said that a good man and three gangs, Li Zicheng's uprising can succeed, to a large extent, it is inseparable from Liu Zongmin's help, Liu Zongmin was born as a blacksmith, and joined Li Zicheng's uprising team in the seventh year of Chongzhen. After Li Zicheng's peasant army entered Beijing, the contradictions within the peasant army gradually became prominent, Li Zicheng ascended the throne in Beijing and proclaimed himself emperor, but Liu Zongmin insisted on not worshipping, and said that I made a ring horse with Li Zicheng, why should I recognize him as the emperor. At that time, Liu Zongmin in order to loot wealth, specially made 5,000 pairs of clamps, specially tortured the Ming Dynasty's **, the beautiful name is called "chasing dirty help", if there are disobedient people, they will crush their hands and feet, this kind of clamp is not the same as what we see on TV, Liu Zongmin innovated it, this new type of clamp stick has edges, and is connected with iron nails, with this kind of clamp stick, there is no clamp constantly. According to historical records, the tragic situation at that time: "The search everywhere is gradually large, and the house of the peddler has a little asset, so he will be caught and clamped, and the old childish injustice will be completely in Qulu." At that time, Li Zicheng said, I also want to be a Ming monarch, don't go too far, but Liu Zongmin didn't pay attention to it at all, and said to Li Zicheng: "The power of the emperor belongs to you, and the power of torture belongs to me, no worries!.""Liu Zongmin, as Li Zicheng's general, also has a lot of power, and Li Zicheng has no choice but to give up.

Liu Zongmin is not only cruel, but also a womanizer, he heard that Wu Sangui has a beautiful concubine named Chen Yuanyuan, who is extremely talented, so he thought about it, so he took someone to Wu Xiangfu to forcibly kidnap Chen Yuanyuan, and forcibly confiscated Wu Sangui's family property as military salary. In fact, Liu Zongmin didn't take Wu Sangui in his eyes at all, thinking that Wu Sangui: "This projectile is not enough to be a corner of the Beijing master, and he kicks down the ear with the tip of his boot." This also shows that Liu Zongmin is short-sighted and proud of the enemy. Wu Sangui surrendered to the Qing army, and was angry at the crown, not only for the red face, but also for the red face, Wu Sangui's surrender to the Qing Dynasty had a great impact on the political situation in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. In fact, it is not comprehensive, before Li Zicheng attacked Beijing, Wu Sangui was returning to Beijing Qinwang, when Li Zicheng beat Beijing, after Chongzhen hanged, Wu Sangui only walked halfway, for Wu Sangui at that time, it was also quite confused, on the one hand, the emperor was forced to death by Li Zicheng, on the other hand, the Qing army has always been the enemy.

At that time, Li Zicheng threw an olive branch, Wu Sangui surrendered to Li Zicheng, at this time Wu Sangui got Liu Zongmin to copy his nest and also arrested his father and wife and concubine, Wu Sangui learned the news, completely saw through Li Zicheng's regime can never win the final victory, so he led his troops to Liaodong, and occupied Shanhaiguan. This is to talk about Wu Sangui's cleverness, Wu Sangui himself is stationed in Ningyuan, is the bridgehead of the Ming court to defend the Qing army, but after the Songjin War, Ningyuan is already a lonely city, he has long known that Ningyuan is not enough to defend, and Shanhaiguan is an insurmountable obstacle for the Qing army, the Qing army and the peasant army will fight sooner or later, and they will occupy this point, which will inevitably become the focus of the two sides. It's just that Wu Sangui overestimated the IQ of Li Zicheng's peasant regime, and Li Zicheng didn't take Wu Sangui seriously, and directly sent troops to seize Shanhaiguan, which finally made Wu Sangui have to surrender to the Manchus. At that time, Wu Sangui invited the Qing army to enter the customs to avenge Chongzhen, and promised that if Li Zicheng was driven away, the two sides would row the Yellow River and rule, and send news to Dolgon. Of course, Wu Sangui was also put together by Dolgon, in the Battle of Shanhaiguan, Wu Sangui's strength was hit hard, Li Zicheng also suffered heavy losses, and the Qing army finally defeated Wu Sangui. From then on, Wu Sangui did not mention that he invited the Qing army to enter the customs, and simply called himself a minister.

It can be said that Wu Sangui is very good at judging the situation, and he will not take too much care of his children's personal feelings in this battle, Wu Sangui is a warlord-style general, with tens of thousands of elites under his hands, what kind of woman can't get it, there are very few people who love beauty and don't love the country in front of the big right and wrong, with the country, there are still three thousand beauties. Judging from Chen Yuanyuan's ending, it can also prove that Wu Sangui is not a dedicated man, Chen Yuanyuan's appearance gradually declined, and Wu Sangui no longer favored her, so Chen Yuanyuan asked to leave to practice and accompany the Green Lantern Ancient Buddha for a long time. What is "rushing to the crown and being angry for a red face", it is just a disguise, even if there is no Liu Zongmin, Chen Yuanyuan has not been snatched away, and I am afraid that Wu Sangui, who is good at judging the situation and sizing up the situation, will also surrender to the Qing army.
