In 1591, due to the Mongol fire, the Chibu soldiers invaded the Tao River, and the retired deputy commander-in-chief, Dai Bai, led the three cadres to support. (Dai Bai was originally a Mongol nobleman, he led his troops back during the Jiajing period, and was attacked by his son after retiring as the deputy commander of the guerrilla army) After repelling the invading Mongol cavalry, because of the Policy of Emphasizing Literature and Light Force, there was a conflict between the border general and the border governor. Inspector Dang Xin not only physically punished the father and son because of his personal grievances, but also impeached the father and son several times for impersonating the leader's salary, and on the way back from the visit, he saw that the local garrison was distracted and complained because of the military salary and logistical problems. Unwilling to be humiliated, Dobai took the opportunity to encourage local officers and soldiers to contact nearby Mongol tribes and launched a rebellion on February 18, 1592.

After the Daibai rebellion, the governor Wei Xue immediately mobilized nearby officials and troops to suppress the rebellion. Because the rebels were small in number, they quickly abandoned the newly occupied town to hold on to the city of Ningxia, and the two sides won and lost each other after several battles. At this time, Wei Xue had advocated appeasing the Ming army under Liu Dongyang of the Xu Dynasty, and the overseer Mei Guozhen believed that this would delay the rebels, so he wrote to impeach Wei Xuezeng. Zhu Yijun was furious and relegated ye Mengxiong with the sword above, so that Wei Xue had made meritorious deeds, and then sent the famous generals Li Rusong and Ma Gui to lead troops to quell the rebellion, and soon under the command of Ye Mengxiong, Li Rusong and Ma Gui defeated the Mongols who supported Dobai, and then dug up the Yellow River to flood ningxia city, and then used a divisive strategy to let Duobai father and son kill Xu Chao, Liu Dongyang, and Tu Wenxiu, under heavy pressure, the rebels had to surrender Kaicheng, and finally Duo Cheng'en was executed, and the duobai suicide rebellion was completely put down.

The Dai Bai rebellion, on the surface, is a personal contradiction between Dang Xin and Da Bai. In fact, the deeper reason was that Zhang Juzheng was not completely reorganizing his armaments, and he accompanied Qi Jiguang and Li Chengliang Magui and others militarily, and the success of several of them was due to the pro-soldiers he recruited. Although this can ensure the combat effectiveness of the army, they spend a lot of money to support their own relatives, and it is easy to attract civilian officials to attack them for not keeping the ancestral system and supporting the self-respect of the army. More importantly, Zhang Juzheng did not have a very good institutional arrangement for the original Military System of the Weishou, coupled with the subsequent Wan Li's sluggish administration, the organization of the Daming Weishou Army was even more chaotic, and the lower-level soldiers were becoming increasingly poor. How can such an army guard the country's door and defend its homeland?
