Liudali

Overview

Liudali was a member of the Yehe Fucha clan of the Plain Yellow Banner during the early Qing Dynasty. His family had lived in Yehe for generations and submitted to the Qing during the Tiancong era. The official Qing clan genealogy, *The Comprehensive Genealogy of the Manchu Clans of the Eight Banners*, Volume 25, records that his great-great-grandson Niuniu served as a defense officer, Fulahun and Cang'er as cavalry officers, and Liushi, as a guard officer, participated in the war against Galdan, dying in battle at Zhaomodo. He was posthumously awarded the title of Yunqiwei, which was inherited by his son Fuhai. His fourth-generation descendants, Suozhu and Asong'a, served as guard officers, Wangge as a defense officer, and Jiucun as an infantry officer. Tiancong was the reign title of Huang Taiji before his conquest of China; the later Zhaomodo battles occurred in a different era and cannot be directly attributed to Liudali's own experience. Defense officers, cavalry officers, guard officers, and infantry officers belonged to different military units or ranks, while Yunqiwei was a hereditary military title. The award Fuhai inherited should be separate from his father's previous military rank. Liushi in the sentence refers to a great-great-grandson, not one of the sixty guard officers; the original character form should be preserved for confirmation by the original printed source. This entry is based on information about the ancestral banner affiliation, submission, and military organization of descendants. It does not list the official titles, birth and death dates of Liudali himself, and the specific villages where his clansmen lived and the terms of office of each official still need to be supplemented.
