Talking about adopted sons

Throughout the history of China, there is an interesting phenomenon, that is, recognizing semes. At that time, the emperor and the commanders and generals of the rebel army liked to adopt adopted sons. For example, at the end of Yuan Dynasty, Zhang Shicheng and Chen Youliang had adopted sons respectively, and Zhu Yuanzhang adopted more than 20 sons. Even the emperor himself was born with his adopted sons, such as Li Siyuan and Chai Rong in Zhou Shizong.

In the late Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng and Zhang also adopted semes respectively, but their reputations were quite different.

Let's talk about Zhang and Zhang * * * adopting four semes, namely, Li Dingguo and Ai Nengqi.

The four of them are all veterans of the peasant army in the Great West, all surnamed Zhang. Before Zhang's death, they were named General Pingtung Battalion 19, General Anxi Battalion 16, General Funan Battalion 15 and General Dingbei Battalion 12. Let's talk about Sun Kewang first. 1646, after Zhang died in the anti-Qing war, the generals of the Great Western Army set up an alliance. * * * elected as the leader, led the rest of the Western Expeditionary Army, inherited Zhang's legacy, insisted on developing the Anti-Japanese War in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and Guangxi, and once entered the heyday of development. The rest of the western armies headed by Sun Kewang established social order in light of the new situation. According to historical records, those who have difficulties in life can be given oxen and seeds, and a strict Baojia system has been formulated, which has created some new social trends, such as widows can remarry and beautify the streets. Later, Sun Kewang fell to the Qing Dynasty and became the "righteous king" of the Qing Dynasty.

Second, after Zhang's death, Li Dingguo led some troops to form a united front with Nanming's regime and moved to Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Guangxi, Hunan and Guangdong. From the 4th year of Shunzhi to Kangxi 1 year, we persisted in the struggle 15 years. The most brilliant achievement is Two Famous Kings. In Guilin, Kong Youde, the king of Dingnan, was forced to commit suicide, and Ni Kan, the prince of Qing Dynasty, was beheaded in Hengyang, which was an unbeaten experience since the Qing Dynasty entered the customs. Finally, Li Yong, the Emperor of Nanming, was betrayed by the Burmese and strangled by Wu Sangui in Kunming. Li Dingguo, anxious and angry, died in Xishuangbanna today. At the critical moment of defeat and poverty, Li Dingguo and his people of all ethnic groups showed an unswerving spirit of resisting the enemy, leaving an epic page in the history of the late Ming Dynasty.

Third, Liu Wenxiu is not an idle person. He was first named the Queen Mother. 1652 was named Nankang King and Shu King. Liu Wenxiu fought bravely and commanded well, especially on water. He has made many meritorious deeds. He cares about soldiers, policies and the overall situation. He has a high prestige among the Great Western Army and the people of all ethnic groups in Southwest China. Once at war with Wu Sangui in Baoning, although it failed, Wu Sangui, king of Qingping, said, "I have never seen such a fierce battle in my life." Visible Liu Wenxiu is very capable of leading troops to fight. All the soldiers he brought out were "everyone dies."

Finally, let me talk about Ai Nengqi, who is both wise and brave. Ming Chengzu wanted him to be a loyal monarch, but he didn't accept it. He plans to use the military industry to serve the country. In the first year, he entered a place 30 miles away from Dongchuan House and was ambushed by local chief Lu. Poisonous arrows are bleeding, and he died heroically on the battlefield.

These four people have their own characteristics, and they are all lean generations.

By contrast, Li Zicheng's semes can't help sighing. It is clearly recorded in Ming History that Li Zicheng has no children, but Li Zicheng has two adopted sons, Li Shuangxi and Zhang Nai. Have you ever heard of them? number

At this point, it is proved that Li Zicheng's seme is different from Zhang's seme.

It's incredible that the remnants of Dashun Army in Li Zicheng fought against the Qing soldiers, and their fighting capacity was also very poor.
