It took only 43 days, and was finally pacified by Wang Shouren (Wang Yangming), governor of Gannan.
background
Ning Wang Zhu, the fifth grandson of Zhu Yuanzhang, the seventh son of Zhu Yuanzhang, is a descendant of Zhu Quan. At first, it was named Gao Wang. In the 10th year of Hongzhi (1497), it was named Nanchang, and in the 12th year of Hongzhi (1499), it was named Wang Ning.
In the second year of Zheng De (1507), Zhu paid bribes to eunuch Liu Jin, courtier and actor Zang Xian. Restore the abolished guards, feed fugitives, kill and expel local civil and military officials and innocent people at will, seize tens of thousands of official and civilian land, plunder merchants, harbor thieves and plot to start an army.
In order to gain the throne, he tried to inherit Mingwuzong with his own son. Eunuch, Xiao Huai and others reported Zhu's crimes successively, and Ming Wuzong ordered him to accept the guards and return the occupied fields.
process
Zhu qibing
In the 14th year of Zheng De's reign (15 19), he returned from a westward journey to Zhu Houzhao, Ming Taizu, and wanted to go to the south of the Yangtze River and travel around the world. In order to discourage his southern tour, he provoked a big petition from courtiers. Therefore, the ambitious Ning Wang Zhu used Ming Wuzong as an excuse to be dissolute. 1June, 998 14, he killed the governor sun sui and Jiangxi governor Xu Kui in dispatch troops, thus gaining the title of ge zhengde.
Li Shishi and Wei Liu were the prime ministers, and Wang Lun was the minister of war. They are all called 100 thousand, and they are sent everywhere to denounce the court. At the beginning of July, taking Nanchang as the headquarters, he led the boat division to cover Jiangdong, crossed Jiujiang and Nankang slightly, went out of Jiangxi, commanded the boat division to attack Anqing and hoped to take Nanjing.
Counter-insurgency in Wang Shouren
Wang Shouren, the governor of Gan Ting and Wudu suggestion, heard the news, dispatched troops and soldiers, and gathered the soldiers of the whole country to conquer Nanchang on July 20. Zhu heard the news and rescued Nanchang. On 24th, he met the Wang Shouren army in Huangjiadu, northeast of Nanchang, and the rebels retreated.
26, Ming arms attack, Chen Hao defeated. More than 30,000 people were killed by soldiers, and Chen Hao, his prince, county king, Li Shishi, Liu and Wang Lun were all captured.
Personal expedition of Ming Wuzong
In August, before Wang Shouren's good news arrived in Beijing, Ming Wuzong declared "conquering Fengtian General Zhen Guogong" and led more than 10,000 officers and men south on August 22nd. When he arrived in Zhuozhou, there was good news from Wang Shouren, but Mingwuzong still went south.
Fortunately, Ming Wuzong even suggested putting Zhu back in Poyang Lake and taking Ming Wuzong alive to show the emperor's prestige. In order to extend the credit for counterinsurgency to Ming Wuzong and his various minions, in August of the fifteenth year (1520), in desperation, Zhu was taken to Nanjing and dedicated to Ming Wuzong, which was called "offering prisoners".
Wu Zong and all the troops arrayed themselves, untied Zhu's shackles and put them in the army. Then they beat drums and sounded gold, captured him, put him in chains, lined up in front of the team and returned home in triumph. In December, Zhu was taken to Nanjing, but Ming Wuzong did not dispatch troops until October of the following year. In December, Zhu was executed in Tongzhou, except.
Wang Ning's failure was related to his weakness, isolation and unpopularity, but there were also military mistakes. In his magnum opus on military geography, Gu Zuyu analyzed that improper military arrangements, first storming Anqing along the Yangtze River, then returning to the army to rescue Nanchang, and never going to Jinling before and after, were the main reasons for Wang Ning's failure.
