Clan and Banner Background

The Šušu Gioro clan is described in volume 16 of the Comprehensive Genealogy of Manchu Clans of the Eight Banners, particularly its Yehe branch. Turush of the Bordered Yellow Banner submitted early, fought near Lüshunkou, Zunhua, and Dalinghe, and served as commander of the vanguard units. He was killed in operations toward Datong and received posthumous honours, a posthumous name, and the bravery designation Shuwengke Luo Baturu. His son Bashitai and grandson Sangge participated in succession to related hereditary distinctions.

Family Service and Distinctions

Turush's younger brother Feiyanggu, meanwhile, administered imperial horses under the Imperial Stud while holding a niru position. Service and horse-management merits brought him a hereditary award, and he later served as a senior imperial minister and president of the Board of Punishments. The elder brother's strengths in reconnaissance and fighting and the younger brother's management and judicial-administrative career must be described separately.

Kinship, Succession, and Evidence

Vanguard command concerned forward military service; the Imperial Stud managed court horses; and the Board of Punishments administered criminal justice. Baturu was a designation honouring bravery, while ducal and other noble ranks marked bestowed status. Another Plain Yellow Banner branch, descended from Chanchan, submitted during Tiancong and earned further military awards. The present account follows the documented Yehe branches; other lineages and complete succession sequences require examination.
