1674-7AD MING REBEL Li-Yung China Chinese Cash Coin
Wu San-kuei (Reign title Li-yung) was a commander in the Ming army, but was born a Manchurian. When his father was killed and his favorite concubine taken by another warlord Li Tzu-ch`eng, he responded by giving his allegiance to the Qing, and taking Peking for them by defeating Li Tzu-ch`eng in a battle.Wu San-kuei (Li-yung) remained an advisor to the nine year old Shun Chih from the time he became Emperor of the Qing dynasty in 1644 until Shun Chih was able to rule for himself in 1651. As a reward, he was made the ruler of the semi-autonomous province of Yunnan, where he continued to use the title Li-yung, and his son was allowed to marry a sister of Shun Chih.In 1673, Wu San-kuei and four other generals, each holding similar positions in Kwangsi, Kwangtung, Fukien and Szechuan, rebelled against the Qing dynasty. He declared himself emperor in 1674, and continued using the reign title Li-yung until 1678 when he changed it to Chao-wu. The Qing moved against them, but the rebellion carried along strongly until the death of Wu San-kuei in 1678. The rebellion against the Qing came to a final end in 1681 with the suicide of his grandson (According to historian Schjoth his son) Wu Shih-fan (312923-705)
