When the founding emperor of ancient China fought the world, in addition to recruiting soldiers and horses and forming an unstoppable army, he also recruited many strange people and strangers for his use. For example, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, had a Liu Bowen under his command. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng, a peasant rebel army, also had such a number of people under his command, and this person was Song Xiance. In order to make Li Zicheng emperor, Song Xiance used Wei Wei theology to fabricate many lies. Later, Li Zicheng attacked the city of Beijing, and he was also named the founding army division. After Li Zicheng was killed at Nine Palace Mountain, most of his subordinates were executed, so why was Song Xiance able to become a guest of honor for the Qing people? Next, let's take a look!
Song Xiance, formerly known as Song Kangnian, was a native of Yongcheng, Henan. He has been reading poetry since childhood, and he is very knowledgeable, especially good at "magic numbers". Because the world was in chaos at that time, and the people did not talk about life, Song Xiance traveled around for a long time, thinking that people divination was auspicious and evil. Later, in the process of traveling the world, he met a scholar named Niu Venus. The two felt sorry for each other and agreed: "Do not forget each other if you are rich and noble." Niu Jinxing joined Li Zicheng's peasant army at the recommendation of Li Yan, and in order to fulfill his promise, he recommended Song to Li Zicheng.
Song Xiance was still called Song Kangnian at that time, and it was in order to better trust some powerful people that he changed his name to Song Xiance. After Li Zicheng saw Song Xiance, Song Xiance gave him advice and won his trust. Once, Li Zicheng was going on a expedition and went to find Song Xiancebu to ask Ji Qi. Song Xiance said mysteriously: "It flows into the trunk of the Shunhe River and falls into eighteen beaches." If you want to go to the clouds, start from the Goose Gate. The general revolted not long after the king, and the name was established as a break, and this statement has now been verified. And according to the proverb, if the general wants to go to the clouds, he must start from the Wild Goose Gate, and it is at this time!" Later, he made up the saying that "eighteen children are the main artifacts".
Li Zicheng was very happy to hear this, and worshiped Song Xiance as a military master, and Song Xiance finally used the Qimen Hidden Armor Technique to win a high-ranking official Houlu for himself. In the fourteenth year of Chongzhen, the peasant army attacked Nanyang. Song Offered "roundabout tactics", and Li Zicheng became a master, which made the Ming general Yang Wenyue exhausted. In the first month of the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, Li Zicheng proclaimed himself emperor in Xi'an and established Dashun. Song Xiance helped Li Zicheng set up an official to guard the territory, eliminate violence and peace, and was named the "Founding Army Division". In the same year, Li Zicheng crossed the Yellow River in the east and approached the city of Beijing. Song Xiance also made up a song and ballad: "Bao'er Army teacher Bao'er Bing, Bao'er attacked the city management and taught to win." Only the child array was left, and the child captured the city of Beijing. So Li Zicheng ordered five thousand boy scouts and sent people to attack the city, and the officers and men defending the city panicked.
When Wu Sangui led the Qing troops into the pass and Li Zicheng's army was defeated like a mountain, Song Xiance sighed: "I am afraid that this is not Allah, the eighteenth child has another person." So he fell to Li Yan, another general surnamed Li in Li Zicheng's peasant army. As a result, Niu Jinxing, jealous of Li Yan's talents, killed Li Yan's brothers privately, and later Song Xiance was also captured by the Qing army Azig. As for what happened to Song Xiance later, there are not many records in the historical records. It is only Tan Qian's record in the "Song Xiance" article under the "Northern Journey" and "JiWen" that after Song Xiance arrived in Beijing in the tenth year of Shunzhi, "the Manchurians attached great importance to their skills, under the banner, and rode in and out of the crowd." It seems that he has successfully fooled the Manchu nobles with that mouth.
