After Shi Dakai was executed by Ling Chi, what happened to his 5 year old son?

After Shi Dakai was suddenly killed by Ling Chi, his five-year-old child was killed by others in the end, which was more cruel and ruthless in ancient times.

His five-year-old son also had a tragic fate. According to historical records, his son cried all day after Shi Dakai's martyrdom, and was finally suffocated to death by the jailers who wet his face with yellow paper, but Yeshi legend says that he was executed by Cixi Lingchi.

After the failure of the Taiping Rebellion, Shi Dakai had the idea of making a comeback, but he did not succeed in the end, and was caught by the Qing after the failure of the plan to cross the Dadu River. In order to get Shi Dakai to surrender as soon as possible, the Qing ** sent Yang Yinggang to persuade and meet their needs for military rations. At that time, what Shi Dakai's army lacked most was military rations.

Although we cannot know the conversation at that time, what Qing ** did after the negotiations is recorded in historical materials. In addition, there are also such opinions on the content of the negotiations.

First, 4,000 of the 6,000 Taiping soldiers were dismissed, and then they were sent rations and documents to return to their hometowns. Second, the remaining 2,000 people need to continue to carry **, follow Shi Dakai's hand in Wuwu Town, and move from Ximagu to Dashu Fort.

On June 10, 1863, Shi Dakai made his third attempt to cross the Dadu River, but failed. In the face of the Qing army and local soldiers who suppressed them, Shi Dakai's heart was very heavy. This heaviness includes helplessness about oneself, confusion about the future, and anxiety about the safety of the soldiers.

In order to avoid being bullied by the Qing army in the future, Shi Dakai's three wives did not want to be a burden to Shi Dakai, so they walked into the Dadu River safely with their children.

After Shi Dakai was escorted to Chengdu, the Qing army ran to Dashubao again. Of the remaining 1,000 people, except for 300 old people and children who survived, the others were killed by the Qing army. After that, Shi Dakai was publicly censored, he dared to say it very much, and he couldn't say a word that the chief judge forced him, and finally Shi Dakai was executed by Ling Chi.

Ling Chi is a very cruel method, to cut three thousand knives on a person's body, the degree of pain is unimaginable. However, Shi Dakai was a backbone man, and he was cut more than 100 times, but he didn't say a word. His behavior shocked both the ** and the executioners present, and they all called him a "strange man".

Of course, Shi Dakai's family was also implicated. But his son was still in infancy at the time, and if he had to do it, he might have died in a few swords. So, Qing ** ordered his son to be raised, and then executed Ling Chi, which is really inhumane.

And most of the Taiping army also ended up like Shi Dakai, and was executed by Ling Chi, with a tragic ending.
