AB - This article focuses on the Tunggiya, a powerful clan amongst the Manchus, and investigates its activities from Ming to early Qing. The Tunggiya's roots trace from Bahu Teksin of the 14th century. From Bahu Teksin came the Fushun's Tong families of the Dargan Tumetu lineage. The Tunggiya surrendered to the Ming during the transitional unrest between the Yuan and Ming Dynasties and eventually became commanders of the Weisuo (a military arm of the Ming Dynasty). The Dargan Tumetu thus resided primarily in Fushun, inheriting similar military command posts during the Ming Dynasty. Yet, while both clans served military purposes, the Dargan Tumetu accumulated fortunes through their commercial activities on the frontier. With the rise of the Qing Dynasty at the end of the 16th century, the Tunggiya faced a new challenge. Tong Yangxing and Tong Yangzheng, clan leaders, saw surrender as the only means of appeasing this new emerging force. They made full use of the Liaodong to support the Qing Dynasty, eventually rising as leaders of the Eight Banners. Their families birthed a government and public lineage of officials during the Qing. Their cooperation with the Qing and appreciation of Chinese culture and led to their dominion over the surrendered Han Chinese. As a result, the Tunggiya contributed militarily to the conquests of the Qing Dynasty, exploiting ties with the emperor in his inner circle both in as Imperial Guards and in the Imperial Household Department. Tunggiya's savvy political maneuvering thus served as a tool of empowering an entire lineage.
