"This fourth place is Mangul Taylor!"

"Aixin Jueluo Mang Gurtai, a native of Hetuala, belongs to the Blue Banner of Manchuria. The fifth son of Taizu Nurhachi, his mother was his step-concubine Fucha Gundai.

When he was young, he followed his father to conquer the Urabu, fought bravely and well, and conquered six cities. In April of the first year of the Mandate of Heaven (1616), he was awarded the title of "Heshuo Belle", and was called the "Four Great Belles" together with Daishan, Amin and Huang Taiji. In the fourth year of the Mandate of Heaven (1619), he participated in the "Battle of Sarhu", and completely annihilated the troops of the Ming general army Du Song and Liu Ling. In the fifth year of the Mandate of Heaven (1620), the Ming army was pursued until the Hunhe River. In the 11th year of the Mandate of Heaven (1626), he attacked the Khalkha Bahrain Department and beheaded many prisoners. After Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty ascended the throne, he attacked the Ming army several times and made many military exploits. "

"First, Mang Gurtai is brave and good at fighting, and he is highly used by the ancestor Nurhachi."

In the 40th year of Wanli (1612), Mang Gurtai followed his father Nurhachi to conquer the Ula tribe of the Haixi Jurchens when he was a teenager.

Mang Gurtai asked to cross the river and pursue Ulabel Bzhanthai, and Nurhachi said to him: "Don't go! How can you be a master without a servant? How can you be a monarch without subjects? Just weaken him. So he destroyed the six cities of Ullah, and transferred his men and horses to the Fulkha River. One day later, Mang Gurtai built a wooden city on the Ula River, leaving more than a thousand people to garrison it.

In April of the first year of the Mandate of Heaven (1616), Mang Gurtai was named Nurhachi as Heshuo Beyler, and ranked third among the four major Beyles (Daishan, Amin, Mang Gurtai, and Huang Taiji) in order of teeth, so it was called the Three Beylers.

In the fourth year of the Mandate of Heaven (1619), Yang Hao, the Ming Dynasty's Liaodong Jinglu, sent the general soldier Du Song to lead 60,000 people out of Fushun Pass, and Liu Wei led 40,000 people out of Kuandian, attacking Hetuala, the capital of Houjin. Mang Gurtai followed Nurhachi to guard the city of the Imperial Domain, and set up an ambush at the mouth of the valley of Salhu, and waited until half of the army of the Ming Dynasty began to counterattack, the Jin army occupied the Jilin Cliff of the Boundary Domain, the Ming army set up camp on the mountain of Salhu, led 20,000 people to attack, Mang Gurtai and Beile Daishan and others led more than 1,000 people to reinforce Jilin Cliff, and the main force of the Ming army attacked Salhu, broke the Ming army, and the famous general Juniper was killed. Mang Gurtai followed Nurhachi back to the army and beheaded Liu Wei, who was attacking Dong'e. In August of the same year, Mang Gurtai followed the army to attack Yeh and besieged his city, Yeh Bel Buyangu and his brother Burhangu surrendered, and Yeh was pacified.

In the fifth year of the Mandate of Heaven (1620), Nurhachi invaded the Ming Dynasty, marched from the Yilupu River, Nurhachi ordered Mang Gurtai to drive out the retreating Shenyang Ming army with the troops he led, Mang Gurtai led more than 100 elite troops, and pursued the Ming army commander Li Bingcheng and deputy general Zhao Shujiao to cross Shenyang east to the Hunhe River before retreating.

In the sixth year of the Mandate of Heaven (1621), Chen Liangce, the general of Zhenjiang City, rebelled under the command of Mao Wenlong, and Mang Gurtai and Beile Daishan moved the residents of Jinzhou to Fuzhou.

In the tenth year of the Mandate of Heaven (1625), Mang Gurtai led his army to conquer the Lushun Pass of the Ming Dynasty. In the same year, Lin Dan Khan of the Mongol Chahar Department invaded the Korqin Department and besieged the city of Klerjurgen.

In the eleventh year of the Mandate of Heaven (1626), Nurhachi led an army to attack the Bahrain Department of Khalkha, and first ordered Zhubeile to lead his troops to attack and harass Silamulen. Only Mang Gurtai did not stop, and Mang Gurtai alone led his troops to cross the river at night to attack, and the number of prisoners was innumerable.

"Second, the Mang Gurtai Yuming Army fought and made outstanding achievements."

In the first year of Tiancong (1627), Huang Taiji led his army to launch the Battle of Ningjin shortly after he ascended the throne. Mang Gurtai led the army to attack the right guard of the Ming army, and then guarded the grain transportation of Tashan with a partial division.

In the third year of Tiancong (1629), Mang Gurtai followed Huang Taiji's Eight Banners Army to attack the Ming Dynasty. Belle Abatai and Azig broke through the Longjing Pass on the edge of the Great Wall, attacked Hanerzhuang, and beheaded Yi Ai, the deputy general of Hanerzhuang. Mang Gurtai joined Belle Dolgon and Duoduo as a response and forced Hanerzhuang to surrender. Then Mang Gurtai persuaded the Panjiakou garrison Jin Youguang, the Chinese army Fan Mingliang, and Jiang Jinqiao. Huang Taiji also personally led the army to conquer Hongshan Pass and approached Zunhua.

Mang Gurtai integrated his army from Hanerzhuang to defeat the Ming general Zhao Shujiao, and captured his deputy general Zang Tiaoyuan. The army of Mang Gurtai then marched into Tongzhou, inspected the ferry, approached the Ming capital Jingshi, and the reinforcements from all over the Ming Dynasty went to the rescue, outside the gate of Tunguang Canal. Mang Gurtai sent Abatai and Azig to lead the escort in front of the front, and pursued them to the moat, where he and the Duoduo Palace, at this time, the Ming army's defeated army came to invade, and Mang Gurtai attacked and annihilated them. Mang Gurtai followed Huang Taiji to inspect the Eight Banners Army in Jizhou, and then broke through the Ming Dynasty reinforcements from Shanhaiguan.

In February of the fourth year of Tiancong (1630), Mang Gurtai led the army to conquer Yongping Mansion and Zunhua in the Guannei. When retreating, Mang Gurtai met the defeated Ming army and routed it.

"Third, Mang Gurtai fell out with Huang Taiji and was reprimanded"

In March of the fifth year of Tiancong (1631), he ordered Zhu Beile to speak bluntly about the current affairs, and Mang Gurtai said: "According to the confession, the prison confessed to determine right and wrong, and did not dare to make a judgment knowingly, but he was afraid that he would slack off for a long time, and the ministers and the ministers of Zhu Beile redoubled their encouragement."

In May, Mang Gurtai followed the army to besiege the Daling River, and the Zhenglan Banner besieged the southern part of the city of Dalinghe. Wu Xiang, the chief soldier of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhang Chun, the superintendent of the army, went to the rescue and stationed at a place fifteen miles away from the city. Mang Gurtai followed Huang Taiji to attack the Ming army and captured Zhang Chun and others.

When the Daling River was encircled, the troops led by Mang Gurtai to Huang Taiji were severely damaged by the Ming Dynasty. Huang Taiji interrogated him by chance: "I heard that the army led by you did not obey orders and delayed the military aircraft. Mang Gurtai said angrily, "There is no such thing. Huang Taiji said, "If the accusers against you are falsely accused, then they should be punished; If this is true, can the one you lead be sinless? After speaking, Huang Taiji was about to get up and ride his horse. Mang Gurtai said, "Why can't the Great Khan get along with me alone? I'm already very submissive, do you want to get rid of me? After saying that, Mang Gurtai picked up his saber with his hand and glared at Huang Taiji with his eyes several times. His half-brother, Beredeg, angrily denounced Gurtai for his rebellion and beat him with his fists.

Mang Gurtai was even more furious, and pulled his saber out of its scabbard. Huang Taiji was very angry, so he angrily scolded Mang Gurtai's mother and step-concubine Fucha for killing his mother and inviting him to pet. Afterwards, Zhubeile consulted with Mang Gurtai for the crime of great disrespect, took away the title of Heshuo Belle, demoted him to Dorobelle, cut five oxen, and fined him ten thousand taels of silver and armor, ten carved saddle horses, and two plain saddle horses.

Mang Gurtai's own sister, Leng Seng Ji, a subordinate of Mang Guzigege, accused Mang Gurtai of making an oath with Derge and Mang Guzigege that he would endanger Huang Taiji, and took Mang Gujigege's husband Zonomu as a witness. Subsequently, Huang Taiji found 16 plates printed with the "Seal of the Emperor of the Dajin Kingdom". In the end, he pursued the title of Mang Gurtai for the crime of great rebellion. The remaining sons of Mang Gurtai were deposed from the clan qualifications, and their descendants were demoted from yellow belts to red belts.

On December 2 of the same year, Mang Gurtai became depressed and fell ill and died of a violent illness.

"Fourth, the reason for the death of Mang Gurtai is that he thinks that he has made outstanding achievements in war and is unhappy in his heart, and he once rebelled in blood."

"Mang Gurtai's military achievements began during the Nurhachi period. In the 40th year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1612), Mang Gurtai followed Nurhachi to conquer Ula, fought bravely and skillfully, and dealt a heavy blow to the Ula tribe of the Haixi Jurchens. In the fourth year of the Mandate of Heaven (1619), Mang Gurtai participated in the Battle of Sarhu in which Nurhachi defeated the Ming army. He followed Nurhachi back to the army and beheaded Liu Wei. In the same year, he followed the Eight Banners to defeat the last of the four divisions of Hulun - Ye He. In the fifth year of the Mandate of Heaven (1620), Nurhachi attacked the two cities of Yilu and Pucheng in the Ming Dynasty, and Mang Gurtai led 100 Jianrui to pursue the Ming soldiers to the Hunhe River. And led troops to rescue the Horqin tribe that was attacked by Lin Dan Khan of the Chahar Department and won the victory, and Lin Dan Khan was defeated and fled. In the 11th year of the Mandate of Heaven (1626), when Nurhachi was attacking the Khalkha Bahrain Department, Mang Gurtai alone led his troops to cross the river at night to attack and capture countless prisoners.

After Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty ascended the throne, Mang Gurtai attacked the Ming army several times and made many military exploits. In the first year of Tiancong (1627), he led his troops to attack the right guard of the Ming army. In the third year of Tiancong (1629), he followed the army to attack the Ming, and together with Dolgon and Duoduo, he forced Hanerzhuang to surrender, and Mang Gurtai integrated the army from Hanerzhuang to defeat the Ming general soldier Zhao Shujiao. In February of the fourth year of Tiancong (1630), Yongping and Zunhua were conquered. In the fifth year of Tiancong (1631), he followed the army to besiege the Daling River, and Mang Gurtai followed Huang Taiji to attack the Ming army and captured Zhang Chun and others. In the sixth year of Tiancong (1632), following the army to conquer Chahar, Lin Dan Khan fled.

Mang Gurtai is Nurhachi's son-in-law, his mother is the Fucha clan, the leader of the Blue Banner, and the three major beylers. In terms of birth and status, she was originally above Huang Taiji, but because of her mother's ambiguous relationship with Dabel Daishan, Nurhachi couldn't bear to kill her, and only divorced her in the name of hiding her property. And in order to please his father Khan, Mang Gurtai brutally killed his mother. This kind of animalistic behavior greatly reduced Mang Gurtai's status and influence in the Later Jin Kingdom. So much so that in the eleventh year of the Mandate of Heaven (1626), no one nominated him when he was elected as the heir to the throne.

When Huang Taiji succeeded to the throne, although Mang Gurtai was attached to the public opinion and had to vote for him, his heart was not balanced. Over time, the contradiction with Huang Taiji has deepened. In the end, the "Imperial Blade" incident made the conflict between the two reach a white heat.

In the fifth year of Tiancong (1631), the Battle of Dalinghe ended victoriously, and the army of the Eight Banners withdrew to Shengjing from the front. The judicial department began to deal with the incident of Mang Gurtai's "Imperial Blade", and after the trial, it was reported to Huang Taiji for approval, and Mang Gurtai was sentenced to remove the name of Da Beile, seize the population of Wuniulu, and fine 10,000 taels of silver.

Mang Gurtai didn't care about the verdict, what he cared about was that he completely offended Huang Taiji and cast a shadow on his own prospects. So I was very sad in my heart, and I often sat alone and cried. The elder sister Mang Guji and the brother-in-law Zonomu were very sympathetic to the younger brother's plight, and specially rushed from Kaiyuan to persuade them.

After three rounds of drinking, Mang Gurtai took advantage of the wine to vent out the thoughts that had been hidden deep in his heart. He said: "I have completely offended Huang Taiji now, and I am afraid that there will be no good fruit to eat in the future, so I will simply not do anything, find an opportunity to get rid of him and seize the sweat position." If this trick fails, we will retreat to Kaiyuan, where the city will be strong and establish ourselves as kings. Mang Gurtai's plan was to set up a "Hongmen Banquet" at home, feast Huang Taiji, and "kill" him with medicinal wine. His younger brother Deg, his sister Mang Guji, and his brother-in-law Zonom were shocked to hear of this plan and advised Mang Gurtai not to act recklessly. But Mang Gurtai said, "If I don't kill him, he will kill me, and I have no way out." Seeing that Mang Gurtai was so resolute, the three sisters and brothers finally agreed to Mang Gurtai's plan. The next day, Mang Gurtai invited the two cronies of Zhenglan Banner to the secret room, Tun Bulu and Aiba Li, as well as Leng Seng Ji, a close confidant of Mang Guji. When the three cronies listened to Mang Gurtai's decision, they all said without hesitation that only the master's order would be obeyed, and they would not hesitate to go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire. The deliberations were decided, and the seven began to swear a blood oath. Mang Gurtai swore and said: "I, Mang Gurtai, have a grudge against the emperor, you will help me, and after the work, if you see you, you are not as good as my body, heaven and earth." Zonomu and Mang Guji swore and said: "We will wait for the emperor of the yang to help you, if you don't keep your word, heaven and earth will learn from it." Several others also took vows. The oath is then burned in front of the Buddha and prepared separately as planned. “

Later, because of his sister's informant, he was relieved of his military power by Huang Taiji, which Huang Taiji did not disclose to the public, but just found another reason to imprison Mang Gurtai, and he died of fear. The former Emperor Taiji imprisoned those who opposed him, but did not kill them directly, they were all afraid to death. Dai Shan finally finished speaking, and he was also relieved and relieved.

Ingrid secretly added a few names: Hauge, Shuoto, etc. also died of involution, but the time had not yet come.

"Huang Taiji once told me:

"I have killed countless enemies on the battlefield, and I have never hesitated. But once you want to put this butcher knife on the neck of your own relatives, how cruel it is, is this a curse from God on my love for Xinjueluo? How reluctant I am to deal with my own relatives!! ”。”

It can be seen that whether it is Dai Shan or Huang Taiji as a murderer, he does not want to see cannibalism in the royal family, but once he enters the gladiatorial arena of power, it is like entering the Colosseum of ancient Rome.

Throughout the ages, which emperor is not like this.

Sui Dynasty (Yang Guang, Yang Yong), Qin Dynasty (Death of Fusu), Ming Dynasty (Zhu Di and nephew), Qing Dynasty, Han Dynasty (Lü's murder), Mongolia (son fighting for the throne) (Great Song Dynasty, for the throne, would rather kill Yue Fei than take the two saints back to Beijing) (too late, more on it tomorrow)
