At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the Zhu Dynasty was in danger, the country at this time can be described as broken, the king Li Zicheng was invincible all the way, and the leader of the peasant army could capture the imperial capital with a hundred calls.
At this time, I have to mention a crucial figure, that is, Wu Sangui, there are several key words about Wu Sangui, such as Chong Guan and angry for Hongyan, King Pingxi, anti-Qing Dynasty and Ming Dynasty, etc., etc., in history, although there is no Qing Dynasty with only thirteen pairs of armor to set the Central Plains, and King Li Zicheng occupied half of the country all the way to the spectacular, but Wu Sangui's life is enough to make books and movies.
Wu Sangui is most famous for being a real man in Sangui, who was angry at the crown, led the Qing soldiers into the customs, defeated Li Zicheng, reversed the situation, and then pursued the victory, and also volunteered to hunt down and kill the orphans of the royal family of the young lord of the Ming Dynasty, so in history, why Wu Sangui descended to the Qing Dynasty, for what reason, and then why he was anti-Qing, around these suspenseful missions, impossible, let's take a look.
First of all, let's ask, is Wu Sangui really for Chen Yuanyuan, angry for Hongyan and Li Zicheng? There is a saying that when Li Zicheng invaded Beijing, there was a man named Liu Zongmin under his command, who heard about Chen Yuanyuan's beauty, so he found Wu Sangui's father Wu Xiang to torture Chen Yuanyuan's whereabouts, and took Chen Yuanyuan away. So he immediately fought with Li Zicheng.
There is also a theory, why did Wu Sangui unite with the Qing army to attack Li Zicheng? It was to avenge his father, at that time Wu Xiang was in Beijing, captured by Li Zicheng, Wu Xiang had already surrendered at the beginning, but Li Zicheng was a peasant army, and he was still cruel to the ministers, forcing those ministers to hand over the money, Wu Xiang never expected that I would surrender and be punished, and finally died tragically, Wu Sangui in order to take revenge, so he fought with Li Zicheng in Shanhaiguan.
Regarding Chong Guan's anger for the **, Chen Yuanyuan is also a woman no matter how he says, Wu Sangui abandoned his ideals and beliefs for the sake of a woman and betrayed the emperor, which is a bit of moisture, but it is not excluded that Sangui is a person with a temperament, and he can do anything for a woman with a hot head, and then talk about the statement of avenging his father, this statement is even more unreliable than for Chen Yuanyuan, because at that time Wu Sangui's father came to persuade him to surrender, Wu Sangui was also very virtuous, and wanted to sever the relationship between father and son, so that the Wu family was destroyed. Wu Sangui would not be so resolute if he thought about his father.
Wu Sangui was a number one, but it was not worth mentioning in front of Li Zicheng and Dolgon, and it was difficult for his men and horses to maintain neutrality at that time, so he was waiting and watching, but why did he help the Qing army and choose to attack Li Zicheng? To a large extent, Li Zicheng's approach is very poor, simple-minded, and reckless characters often do things like this, while the Qing army is different, and the conditions for Wu Sangui to woo and prescribe make him have to choose Mingzhe to protect himself when the general trend of the Ming Dynasty has gone.
Although the Qing Dynasty was lowered, it also issued a document at the beginning, in which he still claimed to be a relict of the Ming Dynasty, but the actual approach was very different, and he also sent chasing soldiers to chase and kill the last bloodline of the Ming Dynasty royal family, and his military exploits were recognized by the Qing court, and the throne of the King of Pingxi was replaced as a fake, so it can be seen that Wu Sangui surrendered for whatever reason, and the most affordable result fell into his pocket.
As for Wu Sangui's opposition to the Qing Dynasty, it has a lot to do with the policy of withdrawing the three feudatories, and when his position and power are seriously hit, he either chooses to accept it and let others slaughter it, or he becomes a traitor again, and he rebels again, which is actually no different from going back on his word, Comrade Sangui has shown us what is the perfect philosophical saying that does not die in silence but explodes in silence.
But Wu Sangui did not recognize the situation clearly, the regime just established by the Qing Dynasty was not so easy to overthrow, overestimated his own strength, and finally failed, I have to say that Wu Sangui is a poor person in the gap between the Infernal Affairs in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and was spurned by the world for selling for glory, and was rewarded for sealing a prince, and was also hit, and the master did not have a good end, and the tiger general who was angry at the crown could not withstand the erosion of the years and the right way in the world that the people's hearts wanted.
