Faced with his father being cut into pieces by the Qing army, why could Shi Dakai's five-year-old son still laugh through tears?

Shi Dakai's five-year-old son smiled not because his father Ling Chi was killed, but because he was coaxed by the jailer before his death.

In the late Qing Dynasty, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom movement unfolded with great force. Due to the unity of the initial group, the Taiping Army at that time was victorious, and the Qing troops they killed were retreating. They established their capital in Nanjing. , its power is approaching the Qing court, and there is a situation of fighting against each other. However, later on, due to the many factions in the Taiping Army and the feudal ideology of small farmers, their group lost the opportunity to completely overwhelm the Qing government, so they were eventually destroyed by the Qing government.

Shi Dakai

He was born in the eleventh year of Daoguang's reign, that is, in the mid-1830s. His hometown is Guigang City. After his father passed away for some reason, his family lost its financial source, causing the Shi family to fall into decline. It was at this time, when he was still a teenager, that he began to work for the family's livelihood. In addition to helping his family farm, he also ran a business selling chicken and duck meat. Sometimes, he even Will be a beef dealer. Although he is very young, he has a mature heart and broad ambitions despite his young age. When he was fourteen years old, in order to realize his ambition, he began to wander in society. It was in the big stage of society that he made many friends and confidants. The more famous among them is Luo Dayou, the leader of the Tiandihui. Because he was born in the fields and was an out-and-out farmer's son, he established deep friendships and feelings with the workers and farmers in the Pingtianshan mining area.

At the age of sixteen, he came into contact with Hong Xiuquan, which completely changed his life. Later, during the Jintian Uprising, Shi Da led more than 4,000 troops to actively support Hong Xiuquan, which made the King of Heaven trust him and be very grateful. He was named the Commander-in-Chief of the Left Army, which is what people later called the "Feathering Heavenly Dynasty" in history.

Before they established their capital in Nanjing, the Taiping Army was ambushed by the Qing Army under Changsha City. It was at this time that Yi Wang Shi Dakai led his army to actively open up the Hexi base area, thus constantly attacking the outer circle. The Qing army carried out strategic strikes, and it was this operation that enabled the Taiping Army, which was besieged at the time, to break through.

In the 1850s, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom established its capital in Nanjing. At that time, the Taiping Army was very proud because it had occupied a lot of land. Gradually, many generals in the Taiping Army were slowly dissipated by material ambitions. After establishing the capital, they actively prepared land and built mansions. But Shi Dakai did not join in. Because he had his own pursuits and beliefs, he was not interested in such luxurious things and did not want to participate.

When he was very young, he was named the "Wing King" of the Kingdom of Heaven. In the 1850s, he started a war in Jiangxi with Zeng Guofan, the main force of the Qing army at that time, the leader of the Hunan army. At that time, Zeng Shuai was forty-four years old and Shi Dakai was twenty-four years old. It is precisely for this reason that people call the King of Wings at this time the pinnacle of life.

Later, with the fall of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Shi Dakai, who was the King of Wings, was caught. Because his crime was too serious and he was the leader of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, he was executed in Lingchi.

The reason why it is said that his five-year-old child can laugh is because after Shi Dakai was taken away for execution, his son cried because he could not find him, and later the jailer wanted to suffocate him with lime. After he saw the lime, he cried and asked the jailer: "Can I see my father after I die?" ?, the jailer said: ?Of course. ?, after hearing such a reply, he chuckled and was finally suffocated with lime.
