The Hui incident in Gansu followed the Salar civil uprising. Tian Wu and others united the Hui people in Guyuan Prefecture and Tongwei, and built a camp at Shifengbao, sixty miles north of Tongwei, Gansu. Yue rebelled in the hills of Yanchating and marched northwestward, but he was unable to attack Jingyuan and Huining. Tian Wu died in the battle, so he turned to the southeast and attacked Weicheng together with the Hui people in Tongwei.Mingshan, the deputy capital commander of Xi'an, led his army to fight the Hui army. The Qing army fell into an ambush.

He went to the emperor and proposed the aftermath of "teaching the Hui people". With the approval of Emperor Qianlong, the establishment of the school in Fukang'an is to domesticate the people and facilitate the rule, and it will definitely have practical effects on the cultural education of remote areas.

The two came into contact. The peasant army took the initiative and became more powerful. Even the city where Chang Qing was stationed was under siege.

Due to the failure of Changqing's suppression, Qianlong reassigned Fukang'an as a general in July 52 (1787), and went to Taiwan to fight with the Minister of Counselor Hai Lancha.In November, Fukang'an and his party crossed Luzai Port (now Lugang, southwest of Changhua, Taiwan). After landing, they marched from Xinpi and attacked the peasant army surrounding Zhuluo County with the main force. Bamboo came out to resist, but Fukang'an ordered the army to stand still, and led Batulu's bodyguards to rush into the rebel army. Unfortunately, the rebel army was defeated.In the first battle of Zhuluo, Fukang'an reversed the situation of the battle and lifted the siege of the city.

In December of the same year, the Qing army continued to encircle and suppress the insurgents, and Fukang'an led troops from Neishan to Datieliao communities, dividing troops to block Haikou and various key passes.Finally, in the first month of the 53rd year of Qianlong (1788), Lin Shuangwen was captured in Laoyaqi.

Before Zhuluo was besieged, General Hengrui of Fuzhou waited and waited in Yanyan Port (now Yanyan Town, northwest of Tainan County, Taiwan) and waited and waited.After Qianlong learned about it, he ordered Fukang'an to impeach Hengrui, and asked him about the crime of asking for more troops and deceiving the soldiers' morale.

In the first month of the 54th year of Qianlong's reign (1789), because Vietnam was disturbing the Guangxi border, Qianlong transferred him to the post of governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.In July, Heshen's younger brother, Xuncao Yushi Helin participated in Li Tianpei, the procurator of Hubei Province, and smuggled wood with Huguang grain boats. He was impeached and fined the governor for three years to raise honest money, and was fined an additional ten years of public salary. He was dismissed from office and retained in office, but it was immediately reduced.It can be seen that the brothers Heshen and Helin were in opposition to Fukang Anju. Emperor Qianlong had his own way of dealing with this, so that both civil and military officials were favored.

In the 53rd year of Qianlong (1788), Gurkha sent troops to invade the Tibetan border on the grounds that the Tibetan authorities imposed too heavy a trade tax.In the 56th year of Qianlong (1790), Gurkha raised troops again, directly attacking Shigatse, where the Panchen Erdeni was stationed in Xi, but Baotai, the minister in Tibet, retreated and wanted to move the Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama to Qinghai.The Qing court heard the news and sent Fukang'an as the general, together with counselors Hai Lancha and Kuilin (Fukang'an's cousin), led Batulu's guards into Tibet to meet the invading Gurkha.On September 29, Fukang'an set off from Beijing, traveling all the way to Tibet from Shanxi and Qinghai.Arrived at the Qinghai-Tibet border on the third day of the first month of the following year, and arrived in Lhasa on the [-]th day of the first month.From Xining to Lhasa, the whole journey is [-] li, with [-] days of walking on the way.

After Fukangan arrived in Tibet, Emperor Qianlong ordered him to send troops to fight quickly, so as not to give the Gurkha army a chance to recover the lost ground as soon as possible.After all the people from all walks of life arrived, Fukang'an went out to suppress.On April 57th in the 1791th year of Qianlong (27), Fukang'an marched from Dililanggu on the southern border of Tibet today. On May 28th, he marched to the vicinity of Chamu. , Two roads went deep into the left and right mountain ridges of the enemy village to intercept; on the [-]th, they finally conquered the well-defended fortress and captured Chamu.

On May 57th in the 1791th year of Qianlong ([-]), Fukang'an set off from Jilong again, attacked the enemy's village along the way, and arrived at Yongya (now in Nepal), more than [-] miles away from Yangbu.The whole country of Gurkha was shocked, so they begged to surrender.After Fukang'an arrived at Resuo Bridge, he thought that Zhiyangbu would "be as powerful as a broken bamboo, and he could perform meritorious deeds overnight. He was very proud, and he embraced his shoulders and waved his feather fan to fight." Taking the opportunity to enter, the Qing army also suffered heavy casualties.The King of Gurkha stated that he would return the property looted at the Tashilhunpo Monastery and would not invade Tibet again.The victory in the conquest of Gurkha in Tibet this time ensured the tranquility of the border of the Qing Dynasty and the stability of Tibetan society, and successfully maintained the territorial integrity of the Qing Dynasty.

Emperor Qianlong also highly appreciated Fukang'an, the main commander of the Gurkha campaign, so he was actually awarded the title of Bachelor of Martial Arts Hall, and named Zhongrui Jiayonggong, and Fukang'an was listed as the first person to make contributions.In November of the 57th year of Qianlong, Fukang'an was awarded as the Minister of the Guards, and according to the example of the prince's name as a pro-military academy, he was awarded the sixth-rank top with blue feathers and three missings, so that Fukang'an could be among his capable family members.
