Zhu Yigui

Zhu Yigui (Chinese: 朱一貴; pinyin: Zhū Yīguì; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Chu It-kùi; 1690–1722) was a Taiwanese military general and rebel.

He was of Hokkien ancestry and lived in the village of Lohanmen located in the area of modern-day Neimen District, Kaohsiung.

Zhu was one of those who rose in rebellion and his good reputation among the locals gave him enough followers so that on 19 April he attacked and captured the city of Kua-chin-na (Chinese: 竿津林/竿蓁林/菅蓁林[3]; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Koaⁿ-chin-nâ; modern-day Gangshan).

On 1 May, Zhu took the title of Zhongxing Wang (中興王; "Reviving King") and the era name Yong He (永和; "Enduring Peace"), he also established an administration reminiscent of the Ming dynasty.

His power started to weaken after disputes with Du Junying, which spelled disaster for the rebels, as this occurred at the same time the Manchu government organized an expedition against them.
