化源 formally Prince Wuzhong of Wu 吳武忠王 martial and faithful later posthumously honored King Xiaowu of Wu 吳孝武王 filial and martial then Emperor Wu of Wu 吳武帝 with the temple name of Taizu 太祖 was a military governor Jiedushi of Huainan Circuit 淮南 headquartered in modern Yangzhou Jiangsu late in the Chinese Tang Dynasty whose takeover of Huainan and several nearby circuits allowed him and his family to rule over territory that would eventually become the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms state Wu although Yang Xingmi would be the first ruler in his line to receive the title of Prince of Wu it was a Tangbestowed title and did not denote independence of the state including most of modern Jiangsu and Anhui and parts of modern Jiangxi and Hubei Background Yang Xingmin was born in 852 during the reign of Emperor Xuānzong of Tang He was from Lu Prefecture 廬州 in modern Hefei Anhui His ancestors including his father Yang Fu 楊怤 were farmers for generations In youth Tian Jun and he became close friends and they came to refer to each other as brother It was said that he was physically strong in his youth and during the Qianfu era 874879 of Emperor Xuānzongs grandson Emperor Xizong Yang Xingmin became a bandit He was captured but the prefect of Lu Prefecture Zheng Qi was impressed by his appearance and stated to him You will be rich and honored one day Why be a bandit Zheng then released him Yang later became a soldier of the Lu Prefecture militia and he distinguished himself in battles However as a result his commander was apprehensive of him and persuaded thenprefect Lang Youfu 郎幼復 to send Yang on an away mission When Yang subsequently met his commander to bid farewell and the commander wanting to pretend to favor Yang asked Yang what favors Yang would want him to do if any Yang responded I need your head and then killed him Yang then took control of the militia and declared himself the commander Lang was unable to control him and so submitted a report to Gao Pian the military governor Jiedushi of Huainan Circuit which Lu Prefecture belonged to recommending that Gao commission Yang the new prefect to replace Lang himself Gao agreed and Emperor Xizong subsequently at Gaos recommendation issued such a commission As prefect of Lu Prefecture Also in 883 two of Gao Pians officers Yu Gongchu 俞公楚 and Yao Guiili 姚歸禮 failed in an assassination attempt against Gaos favored sorcerer Lü Yongzhi who had in effect taken over Huainans governance due to Gaos trust in him Lü thus made accusations against them and Gao sent them out to combat agrarian rebels Lü then secretly informed Yang falsely that Yu and Yaos intent was to attack Lu Prefecture Yang responded by laying an ambush for Yu and Yao killing them and then informing Gao that they had planned a mutiny Gao not knowing that Lü put this incident into motion rewarded Yang for putting down the mutiny In 884 when Gaos nephew Gao Yu 高澞 then the prefect of nearby Shu Prefecture 舒州 in modern Anqing Anhui came under the attack of the local agrarian rebel Chen Ru 陳儒 Gao Yu sought aid from Yang Yang did not have enough soldiers to respond but sent his officer Li Shenfu who tricked Chen into believing that a large army was arriving from Lu As a result Chen fled Subsequently when Qin Zongquan who was previously the Tang military governor of Fengguo Circuit 奉國 headquartered in modern Zhumadian Henan but who had rebelled against Tang by this point sent a brother to attack Lu Yang sent Tian Jun to repel Qins attack Meanwhile when other agrarian rebels Wu Jiong 吳迥 and Li Ben 李本 attacked Shu Gao Yu abandoned it and was subsequently executed by Gao Pian Yang then sent his officers Tao Ya 陶雅 and Zhang Xun 張訓 to attack Wu and Li after Tao and Zhang subsequently captured and executed Wu and Li Yang commissioned Tao as the prefect of Shu In 886 by which point the prefects of Huainan appeared to be attacking each other at will to enlarge their spheres of influence Zhang Ao 張翱 the prefect of Shou Prefecture 壽州 in modern Luan Anhui sent his officer Wei Qian 魏虔 to attack Lu Yang sent Tian Li Shenfu and Zhang Xun to resist and they repelled Weis attack Meanwhile though Xu Qing 許勍 the prefect of Chú Prefecture 滁洲 in modern Chuzhou Anhui attacked Shu Tao was unable to resist and fled back to Lu allowing Xu to take Shu Also in 886 under Gaos order for reasons unclear Yang changed his name from Xingmin to Xingmi War for control of Huainan Circuit War against Qin Yan and Bi Shiduo In 887 Gao Pians officer Bi Shiduo fearing that Lü Yongzhi would have him killed rebelled and put Huainans capital Yang Prefecture 揚州 under siege Lü who then had a fallout with Gao himself as Gao wanted to compromise with Bi while Lü opposed sent Yang Xingmi an order in Gaos name requesting that he come to Yang Prefectures aid Yang under the advice of his strategist Yuan Xi 袁襲 decided to act He gathered his own forces and requested additional forces from Sun Duan 孫端 the prefect of neighboring He Prefecture 和州 in modern Chaohu Anhui and headed for Yang Prefecture Before he got there Lü with Gao and Gaos nephew Gao Jie 高傑 turning against him already fled Yang Prefecture and they rendezvoused at Tianchang 天長 in modern Chuzhou along with Bis onetime ally Zhang Shenjian 張神劍 who had turned against Bi due to Bis refusal to give him the spoils he wanted By this point Bi who had received aid from Qin Yan the governor of Xuanshe Circuit 宣歙 headquartered in modern Xuancheng Anhui had offered the military governorship to Qin so he informed Zhang that any division of spoils had to await Qins decision drawing Zhangs anger Yang Xingmi then took these joint forces and put Yang Prefecture under siege Qin and Bi initially defended the city against the siege but their attempts to counterattack were repelled by Yang Xingmi who inflicted heavy losses on their troops Meanwhile under siege Yang Prefecture was running out of food supplies leaving to severe famine and cannibalism During the siege Qin put Gao to death and Yang Xingmi responded by a great display of mourning After several months Yang Xingmi unable to capture the city considered withdrawing but one night Lüs former subordinate Zhang Shenwei 張審威 opened the city gates However by this point Qin Zongquans general Sun Ru had arrived in the vicinity having been sent earlier in the year by Qin Zongquan to vie for control of Huainan Circuit When Qin Zongquan subsequently tried to recall Sun Sun killed Qin Zongquans brother Qin Zongheng 秦宗衡 who was theoretically the commander of the army and refused the recall effectively acting independently from this point on Qin Yan and Bi joined forces with Sun who immediately put up a threatening posture against Yang Xingmi Yuan believed that with Yang Xingmis forces worn out by the lengthy siege and the people of Yang Prefecture facing starvation Yang Xingmi was in Meanwhile the Tang imperial government which was also weary of the developments at Huainan Circuit had commissioned Zhu Quanzhong the military governor of Xuanwu Circuit 宣武 headquartered in modern Kaifeng Henan the military governor of Huainan as well Zhu announced that he was making Yang Xingmi deputy military governor while announcing his own officer Li Fan 李璠 as acting military governor He sent his advisor Zhang Yanfan 張延範 to Yang Prefecture to convey his good will and decisions to Yang Xingmi Yang Xingmi initially welcomed Zhang but upon hearing that Zhu was sending Li Fan as acting military governor turned angry Zhang in fear fled back to Xuanwu Meanwhile Li Fan on his way south was ambushed by Shi Pu the military governor of Ganhua Circuit 感化 headquartered in modern Xuzhou Jiangsu who was angry that Zhu not he was given Huainan With both Yang Xingmi and Shi turning against him Zhu abandoned his plans of taking control of Huainan He subsequently recommended to the imperial government that Yang be made acting military governor In spring 888 Sun who by this point had put Qin Yan and Bi to death and taken over their forces finally attacked Yang Prefecture capturing it easily Sun claimed the title of military governor Yang Xingmi fled and per Yuans suggestion returned to Lu Prefecture to prepare his next step War against Sun Ru Yang Xingmi however believed that Sun Ru would eventually attack him and in fall 888 he considered heading south to attack Zhong Chuan the military governor of Zhennan Circuit 鎮南 headquartered in modern Nanchang Jiangxi to try to take over Zhongs territory Yuan Xi however pointed out that Zhong had possessed Zhennan for years and was wellprepared for an attack instead he suggested that Yang attack Zhao Huang the governor of Xuanshe who had been commissioned by Qin Yan when Qin left Xuanshe to head for Huainan Yang agreed and also persuaded Sun Duan and Zhang Xiong an independent general who was then at Shangyuan 上元 in modern Nanjing Jiangsu to attack Zhao as well With Zhaos main forces distracted by Suns and Zhangs attacks Yang was able to cross the Yangtze River easily and put Xuanshes capital Xuan Prefecture 宣州 under siege When Zhaos brother Zhao Qianzhi 趙乾之 the prefect of Chi Prefecture 池州 in modern Chizhou Anhui tried to come to aid Zhao Huang Yang sent Tao Ya to face him and Tao defeated him forcing him to flee to Zhennan By 889 With Xuan Prefecture running out of food Zhao Huangs officer Zhou Jinsi 周進思 expelled him he tried to flee to Yang Prefecture but Tian Jun captured him After Yang reported what occurred to Emperor Xizongs brother and successor Emperor Zhaozong Emperor Zhaozong commissioned Yang as the governor of Xuanshe Meanwhile Zhu Quanzhong who was an old friend of Zhao Huangs sent emissaries to request that Yang release Zhao to him However Yang accepting Yuans suggestion that doing so might leave Zhao as a threat instead executed Zhao and gave Zhaos head to Zhus emissaries Meanwhile he sent Tian to attack Chang Prefecture 常州 in modern Changzhou Jiangsu then held by Du Leng 杜稜 a subordinate of Qian Liu Tian surprised Du and captured him taking Chang Prefecture Yang also sent Ma Jingyan 馬敬言 to capture Run Prefecture 潤州 in modern Zhenjiang Jiangsu and Ma did so Subsequently Emperor Zhaozong upgraded Xuanshe to a circuit with a military governor renamed it Ningguo and made Yang its military governor Yang then also sent Li You 李友 to capture Sū Prefecture 蘇州 in modern Suzhou Jiangsu but subsequently Sun Ru attacked and took Su killing Li You Yangs officer An Renyi 安仁義 who was then at Run then abandoned Run as well allowing Sun to take Run When Sun attacked Lu Cai Chou 蔡儔 whom Yang had left in defense of Lu also surrendered it to Sun In spring 891 Sun pressed his attack repeatedly defeating An and Tian pushing toward Xuan Prefecture It was said that the morale of Yangs army fell low in light of the defeats rebounding only somewhat after some successes by Li Shenfu and Tai Meng 臺濛 Sun pushed forward to Huangchi 黃池 in modern Wuhu Anhui and defeated Yangs officers Liu Wei 劉威 and Zhu Yanshou a younger brother of Yangs wife Lady Zhu However Suns army was thereafter stricken by a flood forcing him to withdraw and return to Yang Prefecture He nevertheless was able to send his officers Kang Wang 康暀 and An Jingsi 安景思 to capture He and Chú Prefectures respectively although Li Shenfu soon recaptured them Subsequently Yang and Zhu Quanzhong entered into an alliance against Sun When Sun heard this he decided that he would destroy Yang first and then attack Zhu He thus forced the mature men and women of Yang Prefecture across the Yangtze to accompany his army while killing the old and the weak As Sun left Yang Prefecture Yang sent Zhang Xun and Li Decheng into Yang Prefecture to take control of the remaining food supplies in the city and to comfort those who escaped Suns massacre effectively allowing him to take the city without a fight Sun subsequently surrounded Yang Xingmi at Guangde 廣德 in modern Xuancheng and Yang Xingmi only escaped through the efforts of his officer Li Jian 李簡 Sun then advanced toward Xuan Prefecture Yang Xingmi sought aid from Qian who then possessed the Hang Prefecture 杭州 in modern Hangzhou Zhejiang region Qian did not launch troops but did aid Yangs army with food In spring 892 With Suns numerically superior army pressuring him Yang considered abandoning Xuan Prefecture and withdrawing to Tongguan 銅官 in modern Tongling Anhui Liu Li Shenfu and Dai Yougui 戴友規 dissuaded him pointing out that Sun believed that he could destroy Yang quickly and therefore carried a minimal amount of food and if Yang could simply refuse to engage Sun and wear Suns army down he could be destroyed Dai further persuaded Yang to send the Yang Prefecture refugees who had fled to Ningguo back to Yang Prefecture to settle down to try to see if that would cause Suns army to miss Yang Prefecture Meanwhile Zhang and Yangs other officers also retook Chang and Run Prefectures When Shi Pu also wanted to Huaian Jiangsu note different tone from the prefecture in modern Chuzhou By summer 892 Suns army had been worn down sufficiently that Yangs army was beginning to have successes and Zhang cut off Suns armys food supply routes Further Suns army was suffering from diseases and Sun himself was stricken with malaria With food supplies running low he sent his officers Liu Jianfeng and Ma Yin to the nearby countryside to pillage for food Yang after hearing that Sun had fallen ill made a final attack against Sun defeating him Tian captured Sun on the battlefield and Yang executed Sun sending his head to Emperor Zhaozong Most of Suns army surrendered to Yang although Liu Jianfeng and Ma Yin took some of the remnants and advanced south They eventually reached the Hunan region and took it over Yang then marched victoriously to Yang Prefecture and made it his headquarters again while stationing Tian at Xuan Prefecture and An Renyi at Run Prefecture Emperor Zhaozong receiving Yangs report made him the military governor of Huainan while making Tian the acting military governor of Ningguo and An the prefect of Run Rule over Huainan and nearby territory Early rule It was said that due to years of warfare Huainan Circuit was stripped of its population and wealth Yang Xingmi was frugal promoted farming decreased the tax burden and encouraged commerce with nearby circuits It was said that within several years Huainan was restored to what it was before the war began He organized 5000 of Sun Rus soldiers who submitted to him into an elite corp known as the Heiyun Corps 黑雲都 and had them serve as his advance corps in battles against other circuits Meanwhile although Suns subordinates largely submitted to Yang other than the escaped Liu Jianfeng and Ma Yin Cai Chou the prefect of Lu Prefecture who had previously been Yangs subordinate but had surrendered to Sun started a campaign to resist Yang at Lu Prefecture along with Ni Zhang 倪章 the prefect of Shu Prefecture Cai in order to show resolve dug open the graves of Yangs ancestors and further had an emissary offer his prefect seal to Zhu Quanzhong seeking aid from Zhu Zhu however despised Cai for his treachery and refused to aid Cai instead he informed Yang of Zhang Hao surrendered to Yang Lu Prefecture fell in fall 893 and Yang executed Cai but refused to accept the suggestion that Cais ancestral tombs be dug up stating Because of what Cai Chou did the people under heaven despised him Why should I follow his example Thereafter he also sent Tian Jun to attack She Prefecture 歙州 in modern Huangshan Anhui when the people of She offered to surrender if Yang would make Tao Ya who was known for kindness to the people prefect Yang did so and She surrendered Yang treated the imperiallycommissioned prefect Pei Shu with respect and sent him back to the imperial government Meanwhile Ni abandoned Shu and fled and Yang sent Li Shenfu to be its prefect In spring 894 Wu Tao 吳討 the prefect of Huang Prefecture 黃州 in modern Wuhan Hubei which belonged to neighboring Wuchang Circuit 武昌 headquartered in modern Wuhan submitted to Yang When Wuchangs military governor Du Hong subsequently attacked Huang Yang sent Zhu Yanshou to aid Wu Tao starting years of warfare with Wuchang Wu subsequently offered to resign since he feared further attack from Du Yang then had Ju Zhang 瞿章 take over as prefect Meanwhile the relationship between Yang and Zhu Quanzhong also broke down over two disputes when an emissary of Zhus insulted Zhang Jian 張諫 the prefect of Si Prefecture 泗州 in modern Huaian Zhang responded by submitting to Yang and when Yang sent his officer Tang Linghui 唐令回 to Xuanwus capital Bian Prefecture 汴州 with a large supply of tea to try In spring 895 Yang submitted a petition to Emperor Zhaozong accusing Zhu of crimes requesting that Emperor Zhaozong order the military governors to the north to attack Zhu with him Emperor Zhaozongs court which was extremely weak by that point was not recorded as having taken any actions on Yangs petition Yang subsequently attacked Shou Prefecture and captured it he made Zhu Yanshou its military prefect 團練使 Tuanlianshi and Zhu Yanshou was subsequently able to beat back a Xuanwu counterattack and able to hold Shou Meanwhile Dong Chang the military governor of Yisheng Circuit 義勝 headquartered in modern Shaoxing Zhejiang had misjudged his strength and declared himself the emperor of a new state of Luoping 羅平 Qian Liu who carried the title of military governor of Zhenhai Circuit 鎮海 previously headquartered at Run Prefecture but now was headquartered at Qians base Hang Prefecture who had previously been Dongs subordinate used this as the excuse to attack Dong seeking to conquer Dongs Yisheng Circuit Yang not wanting to see Qian conquer Dong tried to dissuade Qian and also sent emissaries to Dong urging him to immediately cancel any use of imperial title and resume offering tributes to Emperor Zhaozong Qian would Around this time Emperor Zhaozong also gave Yang the honorary titles of acting Taifu 太傅 and Tong Zhongshu Menxia Pingzhangshi 同中書門下平章事 and created him the Prince of Hongnong By spring 897 Zhu Quanzhong had achieved final victory against two military governors that he had waged war for years Zhu Xuan the military governor of Tianping Circuit 天平 headquartered in modern Taian Shandong and Zhu Xuans cousin Zhu Jin the military governor of Taining Circuit 泰寧 headquartered in modern Jining Shandong capturing and executing Zhu Xuan forcing Zhu Jin to flee and taking control of both circuits allowing him full control of the region between the Yellow River and the Huai River Shi Pus Ganhua Circuit had fallen to him in 893 Zhu Jin fled to Huainan along with the Hedong Circuit 河東 headquartered in modern Taiyuan Shanxi officers Shi Yan 史儼 and Li Chengsi 李承嗣 whom Hedongs military governor Li Keyong had previously sent to aid Zhu Xuan and Zhu Jin Yang personally went to Gaoyou 高郵 in modern Yangzhou to welcome them It was said that previously the Huainan forces were only capable at water welfare and now with the injection of the field soldiers from Tianping Taining and Hedong their field fighting capabilities were greatly improved Li Keyong subsequently sent emissaries to Yang requesting that Shi and Li Chengsi be returned to him Yang agreed but as Yang treated Shi and Li Chengsi well and awarded them with much treasure neither Shi nor Li Chengsi actually ever returned to Later in spring 897 Yang resumed his attacks against Wuchang At Dus request for assistance Zhu Quanzhong sent his adoptive son Zhu Yougong 朱友恭 to attack Huang Prefecture Ju Zhang abandoned Huang in response to Zhu Yougongs attack but was subsequently captured by Zhu Yougong Meanwhile Zhu Quanzhong having conquered Tianping and Taining decided to make Huainan his next target so he gathered his available forces and sent his major general Pang Shigu 龐師古 with 70000 soldiers from Xuanwu and Ganhua Circuits to Qingkou 清口 in modern Huaian posturing to head to Yang Prefecture another major general Ge Congzhou with the forces from Tianping and Taining Circuits to Anfeng 安豐 in modern Luan posturing to head to Shou Prefecture and Zhu Quanzhong himself with his main forces to Sù Prefecture 宿州 in modern Suzhou Anhui note different tone from the prefecture in modern Jiangsu The people of Huainan Circuit was greatly shocked and dismayed by Zhus forces However Pang because he had such an impressive force underestimated Yang Xingmis army Yang Xingmi had Zhu Jin serve as his advance commander and Zhu constructed a dam on the Huai River When Yang Xingmi attacked Pang Zhu released the waters to flood Pangs army and then attacked Pang with Yang Pangs army was crushed by the waters and the Huainan forces and Pang was killed Zhu Yanshou also defeated Ges army Hearing that both of his generals In spring 898 Qian Liu Zhong Chuan Du Hong and Wang Shifan the military governor of Pinglu Circuit 平盧 headquartered in modern Weifang Shandong all submitted petitions to Emperor Zhaozong requesting that the imperial government declare a general campaign against Yang with Zhu Quanzhong as the campaign commander Emperor Zhaozong refused Meanwhile hearing of Zhu Quanzhongs defeat Zhao Kuangning the military governor of Zhongyi Circuit 忠義 headquartered in modern Xiangfan Hubei secretly entered into an alliance with Yang but after Zhu Quanzhong found out and attacked Zhongyi capturing Zhaos brother Zhao Kuanglin 趙匡璘 Zhao Kuangning agreed to abandon his alliance with Yang Similarly Cui Hong 崔洪 the military governor of Fengguo Circuit a vassal of Zhus also had secret communications with Yang and when Zhu discovered this Zhu sent Zhang Cunjing 張存敬 to attack Cui Cui warded off the attack by sending his brother Cui Xian 崔賢 to Zhu as a hostage and promised to contribute 2000 soldiers to Zhus campaigns Subsequently when Zhu sent Cui Xian back to Fengguo and Late rule In spring 899 Yang Xingmi and Zhu Jin attacked Ganhuas capital Xu Prefecture 徐州 Zhu Quanzhong after first sending his officer Zhang Guihou 張歸厚 to try to relieve Xu also personally led a relief force that trailed When Yang heard of Zhus impending arrival he withdrew In 900 Emperor Zhaozong bestowed on Yang the honorary chancellor title of Shizhong 侍中 In fall 901 rumors arrived at Yangs headquarters that Qian Liu had been assassinated Believing the rumors to be true and believing that this would be his opportunity to seize Qians capital Hang Prefecture he sent Li Shenfu to attack Qians Zhenhai Circuit Qian sent his general Gu Quanwu 顧全武 to resist but Li Shenfu defeated and captured him However Li soon realized that Qian had not been assassinated and that he would not be able to capture more of Qians territory To ward off a Qian counterattack he who had captured Qians hometown Linan 臨安 in modern Hangzhou by Yang later returned Gu to Zhenhai in return for Qin Pei 秦裴 a Huainan officer who was captured when Qian recaptured Sū Prefecture By late 901 the powerful palace eunuchs upon learning of a plot between Emperor Zhaozong and the chancellor Cui Yin to slaughter them planned to kill Cui In response Cui summoned Zhu Quanzhong to the imperial capital Changan with an army Upon hearing of Zhus impending arrival the eunuchs led by Han Quanhui seized Emperor Zhaozong and fled to the domain of Hans ally Li Maozhen the military governor of Fengxiang Circuit 鳳翔 headquartered in modern Baoji Shaanxi Zhu soon arrived in Changans vicinity and at Cuis urging put Fengxiangs capital Fengxiang Municipality under siege With Fengxiang under siege Emperor Zhaozong issued an edict possibly under the eunuchs duress in spring 902 to Yang commissioning him as the overall commander of the circuits to the east bestowing him the honorary chancellor title of Zhongshu Ling 中書令 and created him the Prince of Wu The edict ordered Yang to attack Zhu from the east The edict was delivered by Li Yan the son of the retired chancellor Zhang Jun on whom Emperor Zhaozong bestowed the imperial surname of Li Li Yan would subsequently remain in Yangs domain to serve as the Tang emperors representative although after Li Yans arrival Yang also himself began exercising imperial authority as the edict that Li Yan delivered authorized him to do so Yang thereafter prepared a campaign against Zhu While Yang was preparing the campaign against Zhu Tian Jun who was by this point the military governor of Ningguo was preparing an attack against Feng Hongduo an officer of Zhang Xiongs who had continued to occupy Sheng Prefecture 昇州 ie Shangyuan after Zhangs death who had an impressive fleet Because of his fleet Feng had refused to submit to Yang Tian built a fleet himself in preparation and Feng decided to preempt him by attacking Ningguos capital Xuan Prefecture with his fleet despite Yangs sending messengers to urge him not to When Feng engaged Tian however Tian defeated him and crushed his fleet Feng in light of his defeat considered heading east out onto the East China Sea but Yang persuaded him that he would be treated well if he submitted to Yang Feng did so and Yang commissioned him as deputy military governor of Huainan Yang then sent Li Shenfu to serve as the prefect of Sheng With the Feng threat over Yang launched his attack on Zhus domain leaving Li Chengsi in charge at Huainans headquarters However his army ran into food supply problems as the large ships that he used to ship food supplies got stuck in the canals Xu Wen had suggested supplying the army with small ships instead to no avail but after this incident Yang began to value Xus advice and began to promote him Subsequently when the Huainan army attacked but could not capture Sù Prefecture quickly Yang withdrew With Yangs campaign having failed by 903 Li Maozhen was forced to kill Han and other eunuchs who followed Han and surrender Emperor Zhaozong to Zhu to sue for peace Zhu subsequently slaughtered the remaining eunuchs and took Emperor Zhaozong back to Changan and kept him under effective control In fall 902 Qians officers Xu Wan and Xu Zaisi 許再思 mutinied against him and tried to take Hang Prefecture for themselves When their initial attempt failed they enticed Tian from coming to their aid When Tian arrived at Hang Prefecture he put it under siege and offered that if Qian would surrender it he would be allowed to withdraw to Zhendong Circuit without further pursuit from Tian Qian refused and under Gus suggestion decided to enlist Yangs aid in stopping Tian who was still Yangs vassal at this point He sent Gu with his son Qian Chuanliao 錢傳璙 to Huainan as emissaries Gu pointed out to Qian Chuanguan as hostage In spring 903 Yang sent Li Shenfu assisted by Liu You 劉有 to attack Du Hongs Wuchang Circuit Meanwhile Wang Shifan who had similarly received an edict from Emperor Zhaozong to attack Zhu during the Fengxiang siege and who had acted on it was now facing the overwhelming attack of Zhus and he sought aid from Yang Yang sent Wang Maozhang to aid him and launched an attack on Sù Prefecture but soon withdrew his attack from Sù In addition while Wang Maozhang initially had successes in conjunction with Wang Shifan in repelling the Xuanwu attack soon Wang Maozhang determining that it would be impossible to indefinitely hold off the Xuanwu attack withdrew from Pinglu leaving Wang Shifan without further aid By winter 903 Wang Shifan was forced to resubmit to Zhu Meanwhile it was said that Tian had become deeply resentful against Yang for forcing him to abandon Zhenhai His resentment was furthered when he went to Yang Prefecture to meet Yang Xingmi to request that Chi and She Prefecture both of which had previously belonged to Ningguo be returned to Ningguo and Yang refused In summer 903 Tian and An Renyi who was then still at Run Prefecture as its military prefect together rose in rebellion against Yang they eventually enticed Zhu Yanshou who was then at Shou Prefecture and who carried the title of military governor of Fengguo to Meanwhile Li Shenfu had initial successes against Tians officers Wang Tan 王壇 and Wang Jian 汪建 Tian therefore decided to depart Xuan Prefecture and engage Li Shenfu himself At Li Shenfus suggestion Yang then sent Tai Meng to attack Xuan after Tian left Xuan Upon hearing that Tai was about to arrive Tian turned back to Xuan and engaged Tai Tai sent letters in Yangs name to Tians officers who still bore allegiance to Yang and then attacked defeating Tian who then fled back to Xuan Prefecture Tai put Xuan under siege and when Tian tried to counterattack Tai defeated An continued to hold out and would not be defeated and executed until spring 905 With Tian defeated Yang commissioned Li Shenfu as the new military governor of Ningguo but Li Shenfu declined and resumed the campaign against Wuchang Instead Yang commissioned Tai as governor not military governor Yang also sent Gu and Qian Chuanliao along with Qian Chuanliaos wife his daughter back to Qian Liu Meanwhile Zhu Quanzhong had destroyed the city of Changan and forced Emperor Zhaozong to move the capital to Luoyang On the journey to Luoyang Emperor Zhaozong sent one final secret communique to Yang Li Keyong and Wang Jian the military governor of Xichuan Circuit 西川 headquartered in modern Chengdu Sichuan to ask for them to make an attempt to rescue him none of the three did Still when Zhu Quanzhong sent emissaries to try to persuade Yang to abandon the campaign against Wuchang Yang sent back the response I will do so and rebuild my relationship with you if the Son of Heaven were restored to Changan In summer 904 Li Shenfu fell ill and died while attacking Wuchang Yang replaced him with Liu Cun 劉存 Meanwhile Tai also died and Yang replaced Tai with his oldest son Yang Wo In winter 904 Zhu Quanzhong himself led an army to try to aid Wuchang and sent other officers to raid Huainan territory He also sent Cao Yanzuo 曹延祚 to Wuchangs capital E Prefecture 鄂州 to help Du defend it in light of Lius siege However by spring 905 Liu had captured E Prefecture and taken Du and Cao prisoner he sent them to Yang Prefecture where they were executed allowing Yang to incorporate Wuchang into his domain Through the years Zhao Kuangning remained in communications with both Yang and Wang Jian a situation that eventually drew Zhus anger In summer 905 he launched a major attack against both Zhao Kuangning and his brother Zhao Kuangming the military governor of Jingnan Circuit 荊南 headquartered in modern Jingzhou Hubei The Zhao brothers were crushed Zhao Kuangning fled to Huainan and Zhao Kuangming fled to Xichuan Zhu incorporated their domains into his After his success he decided to head east to attack Huainan but after running into storms withdrew Meanwhile Yang grew ill and faced a succession problem The natural successor would be his son Yang Wo but the Huainan staff members all had low opinions of Yang Wo When Yang Xingmi brought up the matter with his secretary Zhou Yin 周隱 and told Zhou to issue an order summoning Yang Wo back from Xuan Prefecture Zhou opposed the idea stating that he viewed Yang Wo as an inappropriate successor due to his love for drinking and games Instead Zhou suggested that Yang entrust the circuit to Liu Wei with the direction that after Yangs younger sons

Zygomatic process From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia This article needs additional citations for verification Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources Unsourced material may be challenged and removed September 2009 Learn how and when to remove this template message It has been suggested that Zygomatic process of maxilla and Zygomatic process of temporal bone be merged into this article Discuss Proposed since December 2017 The Zygomatic process forms an L in this picture As a comparison this is how the skull looks with almost all of the zygomatic process removed Each Zygomatic process is the part of a bone which articulates with the zygomatic bone The three processes are Zygomatic process of frontal bone from the frontal bone Zygomatic process of maxilla from the maxilla malar process Zygomatic process of temporal bone from the temporal bone The term zygomatic derives from the Greek Ζυγόμα zygoma meaning yoke The zygomatic process is occasionally referred to as the zygoma but this term usually refers to the zygomatic bone or occasionally the zygomatic arch Contents 1 Zygomatic process of frontal bone 2 Zygomatic process of maxilla

right Details Identifiers Latin processus zygomaticus ossis frontalis Anatomical terms of bone The supraorbital margin of the frontal bone ends laterally in its zygomatic process which is strong and prominent and articulates with the zygomatic bone The zygomatic process of the frontal bone extends from the frontal bone laterally and inferiorly Zygomatic process of maxilla The zygomatic process of the maxilla malar process is a rough triangular eminence situated at the angle of separation of the anterior zygomatic and orbital surfaces In front it forms part of the anterior surface Behind it is concave and forms part of the infratemporal fossa Above it is rough and serrated for articulation with the zygomatic bone Below it presents the prominent arched border which marks the division between the anterior and infratemporal surfaces Processes of the zygomatic bone The zygomatic bone itself has four processess namely the frontosphenoidal orbital maxillary and temporal processes The frontosphenoidal process is thick and serrated The cranial suture between the frontal and zygomatic bone is found here On its orbital surface just within the orbital margin and about 11 mm below the zygomaticofrontal suture is a tubercle of varying size and form but present in 95 per cent of skulls Whitnall 43 This tubercle isnt seen in the picture The orbital process is a thick strong plate projecting backward and medialward from the orbital margin It is the gloomy area beneath the lacrimal and ethmoidal bones in the image The maxillary process presents a rough triangular surface which articulates with the maxilla It is the area below zygomatic in the image The temporal process long narrow and serrated articulates with the zygomatic process of the temporal It is the process to the

a man of conscience and he wants either Sir Thomas More to bless his marriage or Sir Thomas More destroyed Rich They seem odd alternatives Secretary Cromwell Do they Thats because youre not a man of conscience If the King destroys a man thats proof to the King that it must have been a bad man the kind of man a man of conscience ought to destroy and of course a bad mans blessings not worth having So either will do Act II I will not take the oath I will not tell you why I will not Norfolk Then your reasons must be treasonable Not must be may be Norfolk Its a fair assumption The law requires more than an assumption the law requires a fact Act II Norfolk Im not a scholar as Master Cromwell never tires of pointing out and frankly I dont know whether the marriage was lawful or not But damn it Thomas look at those names You know those men Cant you do what I did and come with us for friendship And when we stand before God and you are sent to Paradise for doing according to your conscience and I am damned for not doing according to mine will you come with me for friendship Cranmer So those of us whose names are there are damned Sir Thomas I dont know Your Grace I have no window to look into another mans conscience I condemn no one Cranmer Then the matter is capable of question Certainly Cranmer But that you owe obedience to your King is not capable of question So weigh a doubt against a certainty and sign Some men think the Earth is round others think it flat it is a matter capable of question But if it is flat will the Kings command make it round And if it is round will the Kings command flatten it No I will not sign Act II Cromwell You dont seem to appreciate the seriousness of your position I defy anyone to live in that cell for a year and not appreciate the seriousness of his position Cromwell Yet the State has harsher punishments You threaten like a dockside bully Cromwell How should I threaten Like a Minister of State with justice Cromwell Oh justice is what youre threatened with Then Im not threatened Act II You want me to swear to the Act of Succession Margaret God more regards the thoughts of the heart than the words of the mouth Or so youve always told me Yes Margaret Then say the words of the oath and in your heart think otherwise What is an oath then but words we say to God Act II When a man takes an oath Meg hes holding his own self in his own hands Like water And if he opens his fingers then he neednt hope to find himself again Sir Thomas More Act II Margaret Havent you done as much as God can reasonably want Well finally it isnt a matter of reason finally its a matter of love Alice Youre content then to be shut up here with mice and rats when you might be home with us Content If theyd open a crack that wide Id be through it Well has Eve run out of apples Margaret Ive not yet told you what the house is like without you Dont Meg Margaret What we do in the evenings now that youre not there Meg have done Margaret We sit in the dark because weve no candles And weve no talk because were wondering what theyre doing to you here The Kings more merciful than you He doesnt use the rack Act II I am faint when I think of the worst that they may do to me But worse than that would be to go without you not understanding why I go Alice I dont Alice if you can tell me that you understand I think I can make a good death if I have to Alice Your deaths no good to me Alice you must tell me that you understand Alice I dont I dont believe this had to happen If you say that Alice I dont know how Im to face it Alice Its the truth Youre an honest woman Alice Much good it may do me Ill tell you what Im afraid of that when youre gone I shall hate you for it Act II Jailer You understand my position sir theres nothing I can do Im a plain simple man and just want to keep out of trouble Oh Sweet Jesus These plain simple men Act II Have patience Margaret and trouble not thyself Death comes for us all even at our birth even at our birth death does but stand aside a little And every day he looks toward us and muses somewhat to himself whether that day or the next he will draw nigh It is the law of nature and the will of God You have long known the secrets of my heart Sir Thomas More Act II External links Wikipedia has an article about Robert Bolt Categories English playwrights 1924 births 1995 deaths Screenwriters
