Fuheng

Fuheng was appointed commander of Qing forces in the First Jinchuan Campaign against the rebellious Tusi (local chieftains) in Sichuan. The campaign was marked by difficult terrain and fierce resistance, but ultimately resulted in Qing victory and the submission of the Jinchuan region.

Fuheng was appointed Grand Secretary of the Qing Empire, recognizing his military successes and administrative abilities. He became a trusted advisor to the Qianlong Emperor and played a key role in shaping military policy.

Fuheng died while still serving as Grand Secretary and military commander. His death occurred during the Second Jinchuan Campaign, which he had been leading. He was posthumously honored by the Qianlong Emperor.

Fuheng again led Qing forces in the Second Jinchuan Campaign, a protracted and costly war against the Jinchuan Tusi. The campaign lasted until 1776 and resulted in the complete annexation of the Jinchuan region into the Qing Empire, but at great human and financial cost.
