author:Mountains and rivers clear peaks

The "History of Ming" records: "In February, Tang Sai'er, a demon woman of Botai, rebelled, and Marquis Liu of Anyuan raised his command to discuss it." In March, Xin Wei, who was defeated by yushizhai, commanded Liu Zhongzhan to die, and Sai'er escaped. Jia Shen and Shandong both commanded Wei Qing to defeat the thief at Anqiu, and Wang Zhen to defeat the thief in Zhucheng and sacrifice the Jing division. ”

The story also begins with the Battle of Ming Chengzu Zhu Dijing. Shandong was one of the main battlefields of the Battle of Jingnan, and due to the continuous years of war, the economy was in ruins and the people's livelihood was withered. In the eighteenth year of Yongle, Zhu Di prepared to move the capital from Nanjing to Beijing (officially moved the capital the following year), built a palace in a large scale, and successively requisitioned more than 100,000 people in neighboring Shandong, and the peasants were heavily burdened. In February, that is, in February of the eighteenth year of Yongle (1420 AD), Tang Sai'er (born in 1399, died in an ominous year, now Binzhou) gathered more than 500 people to revolt in Qingzhou Yushi Shed Village, repeatedly defeated the officials and troops, the people responded, the number of people have increased to more than 6,000 people, the scope of activities is mainly in today's Weifang Qingzhou, Anqiu area. It can be seen that Tang Sai'er has a certain military command ability and a mass base. Zhu Di was furious and sent Liu Sheng, the Marquis of Anyuan, with du commanding the army commanded by Liu Zhong to quell the rebellion. The Ming army was strong and surrounded Tang Sai'er's cottage. Tang Sai'er surrendered fraudulently and took the opportunity to attack the Ming army at night, the Ming army was in chaos, Liu Zhong was killed in battle, and Tang Sai'er broke through. Tang Sai'er's troops were eventually defeated by Wei Qing, the commander of the Shandong capital, but Tang Sai'er and others fled, and Shi Zai "did not capture". Ling Mengchu processed Tang Sai'er's artistic image in "The Surprise of the First Shooting", saying that Tang Sai'er can sprinkle beans into soldiers, draw paper as a person, can spell, and can predict the future. In December 1986, Tang Sai'er's deeds were filmed as a TV series of the same name and broadcast on Shandong Television.
