Bozhou Tusi

The Bozhou Tusi (Chinese: 播州土司), ruled by the Yang clan, was an autonomous Tusi chiefdom established by Yang Duan (杨端) during the Tang dynasty. After he conquered the Bozhou Prefecture (centred on modern Zunyi) from the Nanzhao Kingdom, Yang Duan was recognized as the hereditary ruler of the region by the Tang court in 876.

The Yang clan ruled Bozhou for more than seven centuries, surviving several dynastic changes in China, until its last ruler Yang Yinglong rebelled against the Ming dynasty in 1589. It took more than a decade for the Ming to suppress the rebellion, and the Bozhou Tusi was defeated and abolished in 1600.[1][2][3][4]

History

The Bozhou Yang Clan Tusi was established in 876 when the first chieftain Yang Duan occupied Bozhou (modern-day Zunyi) in southwest China. It lasted for about 725 years over 29 generations through the Tang, Song, Yuan, and Ming dynasties. The main fortress of Bozhou Yang Tusi was Hailongtun, constructed in 1257. About 17,000 Tusi soldiers who were led by the 29th Chieftain Yang Yinglong (杨应龙) fought against the 240,000 Ming Dynasty for 114 days. In the end the Tusi force was defeated and Yang Yinglong was killed. The Ming Dynasty burned down Hailongtun, and put an end to the 725 years rule of the Yang Family.[5]

  5. 据宋濂所著《杨氏家传》杨贵迁为杨业曾孙杨延朗之孙,杨充广之子,杨充广持节广西,与杨昭通谱,以其子杨贵迁过继于杨昭。而《续遵义府志·杂记》引《杨氏族谱》记载,杨昭以杨延朗为嗣子,杨延朗时同治罗氏收养了杨端嫡系后裔杨贵迁,在杨延朗之子杨克广继位五年后袭位。谭其骧以杨贵迁一生在杨文广南行之前认定《杨氏家传》和《续遵义府志·杂记》不足信,1974年出土的《杨文神道碑》自称先世出自会稽,学界一致认定《杨氏家传》其先太原人以及杨贵迁为杨家将之后都是明朝初年编造的。
