Is there Liu in history?

According to the records of Zhou Chaolue in the Late Qing Dynasty and Biography of Qing Draft, Liu was a right-hand man in the early stage and one of the leaders of peasant uprisings in Macheng and He in the late Kangxi period.

In the 13th year of Kangxi (1674) in September, he and Liu gathered 1000 people to hold an uprising in Macheng, Hubei.

Liu, whose real name is Liu Qizhen, is from Dongshan, Macheng. He is one of the leaders of Huangqi 48 village and has a strong appeal among the people. In peacetime, the government used him to handle theft cases, but if there was an opportunity, he could raise the flag to rebel.

Liu He and his brain trust were connected in series in various places, secretly consulting with the anti-Qing and anti-Ming forces in the "Forty-eight Villages in Qi Huang" and the three provinces of Henan, Anhui and Jiangxi, appointing generals and preparing to assemble hundreds of thousands of people. In September of the thirteenth year of Kangxi, the uprising officially took place.

From the eighth year to the twelfth year of Kangxi, Yu Chenglong was appointed as the secretariat of Huangzhou. In the past four years, life in Yu Chenglong has been colorful. During his tenure, his main job was to prevent thieves in Qiting Town, Macheng County. Yu Chenglong's real fame was created during this period.

Yu Chenglong has just arrived in Huangzhou. Facing a complicated theft case, he is at a loss. He recruited a group of people with bandit background as officers to "treat thieves with thieves". Peng Bailing, a famous thief, and Liu, one of the leaders of "Forty-eight Villages", were sent by him to handle the theft.

So Liu did become Jackie Chan's subordinate in the early days, but later Wu Sangui rebelled and Liu Ye took this opportunity to launch an uprising.

After Liu rushed to fight, Cheng Zhenbang, Bao, Li Gongmao and other troops also began to fight. The magistrate of a county ordered Wang Zongchen, deputy company commander of Huangzhou, to station troops in Guangfu Temple. He led the troops into the town, set a date and prepared to fight bandits.

Liu only sent seven cavalry. In the evening, he attacked Wang Zongchen's barracks and drove Wang Zongchen and Qu's army back to the county seat. At that time, the forces of "Qi Huang Forty-eight Villages" in Dongshan and Macheng all rose up in succession, forming the trend that a single spark could start a prairie fire.
