Biography

Background

His biographers state that he belonged to the Giorca (覺爾齊), clan and that his father Wambulu (完布祿), remained loyal to Nurhaci despite efforts of the Janggiya (竟嘉) and Nimala (尼瑪蘭) people to tempt him to rebel. Behind this statement lies a bitter dissention in Nurhaci's own clan which the official Qing historians tried to conceal. There is no clan named Giolca among the 641 listed in the Genealogy of the Manchu Clans, (八旗滿洲氏族通譜 Baqi Manzhou shizu tungbu, 80 + 2 jüan, completed early in 1745). Giolca was the place in which Nurhaci's grand-uncle, Desikū 德世庫, had settled, and it seems probable that Anfiyanggū was one of Desikū's descendants. Janggiya and Nimala were similarly the homes of two other of Nurhaci's grand-uncles whose descendants were hostile to Nurhaci's plans for conquest.

Military Service

Anfiyanggū joined Nurhaci in all the expeditions by which between 1583 and 1593 he subdued the smaller tribes round him and crushed his hostile relatives at Janggiya and Nimala. During a battle with Hada forces in 1593 Anfiyanggū saved Nurhaci's life, for which the title Šongkoro Baturu, (eagle-like conquering hero), was conferred upon him. Attached to the Bordered Blue Banner, he took part in all of the larger campaigns of the next twenty years, and in 1616 with Nurhaci's proclamation of the Jin Dynasty, he was appointed as one of Nurhaci's five chief councilors in the newly organized administration, the other four being Eidu, Hūrhan, Fiongdon, and Hohori. He died one year after he had assisted in the capture of Shenyang and Liaoyang. In 1659 the posthumous name, Minzhuang (敏狀), was conferred upon him and a tablet was erected in memory of his services to the founding of the dynasty.

Legacy

Anfiyanggū, and his descendants held the hereditary captaincy of four companies in the first division of the Bordered Blue Banner. In memory of Anfiyanggū's exploits, the minor hereditary rank of Qingche Duwei was conferred on one of his sons (1650) and on a great-grandson (1713). Another son was killed in battle and was rewarded posthumously with the hereditary Qingche Duwei. A grandson, named Sunta (孫塔) (?–1666), was onetime president of the Board of Works (1656–60) and in 1664 was made a first class baron.

安費揚古在努爾哈赤征討尼堪外蘭之役中首次上陣，跟隨努爾哈赤攻克圖倫城。並且在統一建州女真的諸戰役中屢建功勳。1593年六月，隨努爾哈赤征討海西女真哈達部佳齊寨，建州軍大獲全勝，遂班師凱旋，由努爾哈赤親自殿後。在回程途中，哈達貝勒孟格布祿率領騎兵部隊追上建州軍，哈達部的一名騎兵直奔努爾哈赤而去，努爾哈赤拉弓正欲射之，又有三名哈達起兵揮刀而至。這時，安費揚古截擊而至，盡斬四騎兵。混戰之中，努爾哈赤射中孟格布祿所起之馬，哈達部不敵敗走。此役努爾哈赤嘉獎安費揚古，賜號碩翁科羅巴圖魯（ᡧᠣᠩᡴᠣᡵᠣ ᡳ ᠪᠠᡨᡠᡵᡠ|v=šongkoro i baturu）。是年九月，隨努爾哈赤大破葉赫等九部聯軍。1599年九月，滅哈達部。
