High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Yeh Ming Hsin was the appointed Viceroy of Kwang Tung and Kwangsi from 1854-1857. He was a native of Han-Yang, part of the port of Hankou (formerly existing cities now in the territory of Wuhan), which was destroyed by the forces of the Taiping Rebellion. The leaders of the Taiping Rebellion came from the areas of Kwang Tung and Kwangsi, and it's indicated that Governor Yeh transferred his personal loss into intense bitter feelings for the people over whom he was to rule. A provincial insurrection in Canton separate from the concurrent Taiping Rebellion broke out in 1855 during the administration of Governor Yeh. During this time he curried favor with the Qing government by quickly executing "rebels" without trial en masse half of whom were said to be innocent of sedition, and had been accused of such as a pretext for extortion. Many, reportedly 75,000 were executed in the summer of 1855 by decapitation.
