At the end of the Ming Dynasty, was there a general surnamed Song who guarded Yanmen Pass?

Hello. There is no record in the official history that at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was a general surnamed Song guarding Yanmen Pass.

On the contrary, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there was a figure surnamed Song who participated in the breakthrough of Yanmen Pass.

Song Xiance (?) —1645), a native of Yongseong. He studied hard, was knowledgeable, especially proficient in "magic", made a living as a "warlock", traveled all over the world for a long time, and divined good fortune and misfortune for people.

In April of the fourteenth year of Chongjiao of the Ming Dynasty (1641), Song Xiance was recommended by Baofeng to raise people Niu Jinxing to Li Zicheng's peasant army. He made suggestions and was extremely intelligent, and was deeply respected by Li Zicheng, and he must first ask for advice on any campaign and battle plan. Once, Song said to Li:

Flows into the dry of the river, traps in the eighteen beaches, if you want to go to the clouds, start from the Yanmen Pass. When the general began the uprising, he immediately proclaimed himself king and named the country Chuang, which has verified this statement. Now according to the phrase 'from Yanmen Pass', the general's uprising will start from now on!

Li Zicheng was overjoyed when he heard about it and worshipped him as a military advisor. Song Jing in Qimen Dunjia and Tu Yu and other techniques, Li Zicheng believes in gods. According to the political corruption of the Ming Dynasty, the Song Dynasty pointed out that its "national fortune will end" by means of mathematics.

In order to establish the peasant political power more quickly and establish Li Zicheng's prestige, he put forward the slogan of "Eighteen children should be the main artifact". The proposition and propaganda of this slogan played a great role in mobilizing and winning over the masses, boosting the morale of the peasants, and isolating the rulers of the Ming Dynasty.

At the time of the attack on Yanmen Pass, Song believed that no matter how Zhou Yuji, the general of the Sanguan Army, prepared for war, the lone brigade in Shanxi would not be able to compete with Li Zicheng's army of hundreds of thousands, and the loss of Daizhou was only a matter of time. The terrain of Ningwuguan was dangerous, and the peasant army was determined to win, so the battle was quite tragic. Because the peasant army was heavily bombarded by the Ming army's artillery, Song Xiance had forced Zhou Yuji to surrender with the propaganda offensive of "those who do not surrender for five days slaughtered their cities", and when the Ming army's gunpowder was about to run out, some generals also persuaded Zhou Yuji to change his strategy and not to blindly fight hard, but Zhou Yuji was categorically refused.

So he set up an ambush in the city, lured the enemy into the city with weak soldiers, and killed thousands of people in a hurry.

Due to Zhou Yuji's stubborn resistance, Li Zicheng was ready to give up the capture of Ningwu Pass, but Song Xiance and the generals insisted repeatedly, so the peasant army launched a fierce attack on Ningwu Pass again, under the bombardment of artillery, the city continued to collapse, the front team of the peasant army charge was killed, and the rear team immediately followed up and replaced, and finally broke through Ningwu Pass.

After the city was broken, although Song Xiance tried his best to stop it, he was finally unable to persuade Li Zicheng to order, and the people's army "slaughtered Ningwu, leaving no babies and children behind", and many people were killed.

Yanmen Pass, located in Dai County, Shanxi Province, is about 40 miles northwest of the city, also known as Xicheng Pass. It is called the three passes together with Ningwu Pass and Partial Pass. Three passes are extremely dangerous, live on the Heng Mountain in the north of Dai County, the north is based on the Yanbei Plateau, the Xinding Basin in the south, the inner Great Wall that winds on the top of the mountain, the lonely peak towers, it is said that even the South Goose returns to the north, can not fly over the top of the mountain, it is necessary to pass through the gap between the mountains, so it is called "Yanmen".

Yanmen leads the general trend of the world, and moves the whole body with a hair, which is the head of the nine stops in the Central Plains. To the east, it is Pingxingguan, Bauhinia Pass, and Backward Horse Pass, which reaches Youyan and connects Hanhai; To the west, there are Xuangangkou, Ningwu Pass, Yatou Pass, until the bank of the Yellow River, which is the most critical and final barrier after the Great Wall of the Central Plains and Han Land.

During the Warring States Period, Zhao General Li Mu was ordered to stay in Yanmen and broke more than 100,000 horsemen of the Huns;

During the Qin period, the first emperor sent the general Meng Tian to lead 300,000 troops to attack the Xiongnu in the north of Yanmen, collect the land of the Hetao, and build the Great Wall;

During the Han Dynasty, Li Guang fought with the Xiongnu dozens of times here, guarded the gateway of the Han family, and was called "General Fei" by the Huns;

During the Tang Dynasty, Xue Rengui was the acting governor of the state and guarded Yanmen.

This is the meaning of Yanmen Natural Insurance, "The three levels are incomparable, and the pill stoppers respect the first level!" ”

All dynasties of the Central Plains sent the strongest generals of the time to guard this portal.

In the first year of Kaiyao (681 AD), Xue Rengui was appointed as the acting governor of the inspection school, guarding Yanmen Pass In the second year, he inspected the school in the Duhufu (now Inner Mongolia and northwest Lingel) and lowered the tribal official Ashde Yuanzhen (imprisoned for crime, the second person in the later Turkic founder), and heard that Ashina Gu Dulu was anti-Tang, so he falsely claimed that the Turkic tribe of the school was self-effective, and took the opportunity to defect to Ashina Gu Dulu. Ashina Gu Dulu because of Ashide Yuanzhen is familiar with the reality of the Tang Dynasty's frontier, that is, he is Abo Dagan, commanding the Turkic soldiers and horses, conquering the Khitan in the east, and fighting Tiele in the west, and the power is strong, and tens of thousands of troops invade Bingzhou (Zhijinyang, now southwest of Taiyuan, Shanxi) and the northern border of Shan Yufu, killing Wang Demao, the assassin of Lanzhou.

Xue Rengui led his army to meet the Yuanzhen army of Ashid in Yunzhou, and the Turks asked who the commander of the Tang army was? The Tang army is Xue Rengui, the Turks don't believe it, Xue Rengui took off his hat and showed it to the enemy, the Turks saw that it was Xue Rengui, panicked, dismounted and bowed, turned around and retreated, Xue Rengui did not let go of the enemy, waved his troops to pursue, beheaded more than 10,000 people, captured more than 20,000 people, captured livestock, more than 30,000 war horses, and achieved a great victory.

This is the last battle of Xue Rengui's ancient years, and it is also the strongest deterrent battle against the enemy in his career, this battle shows that the enemy's fear of Xue Rengui, the legendary general, has reached the point of no return, which shows that he is strong, it can be said that Xue Rengui is the embodiment of beauty and wisdom, hero and chivalry
