In the winter of the same year, Wang Fu Chen, the governor of Shaanxi Province, rebelled against Wu Sangui and Mo Luo, and Yin Huaxing was detained in Qinzhou (now Tianshui City, Gansu Province), so he said he was ill and refused to accept Wang Fu Chen's appointment. In the 14th year of Kangxi (1675), Yin Huaxing left and returned to the imperial court. Because he refused to return to Wu Sangui during his detention, Shaanxi governor ha zhanzou asked the imperial court to let Yin Huaxing return to his original post and take up the guard of the firearm camp. In the 15th year of Kangxi (1676), Yin Huaxing followed Zhenwu general fonile to fight with Wu Sangui army in Niutoushan, conquering the upper and lower mountains of Niutoushan. Wu Sangui occupied Hanzhong by Wang Pingzhen, and sent 20000 soldiers to invade Baoji County (now Jintai District, Baoji City, Shaanxi Province). General Tu Hai ordered Yin Huaxing to lead the army to rescue Baoji County. Yin Huaxing defeated Wang Pingzhen and lifted the siege of xishanbao. Later, Tuhai sent troops from daniyu to enter Xunyang county (now Xunyang County, Shaanxi Province) to attack liangheguan. On a snowy night, he defeated Wu Sangui's General Han Jinqing's seven battalions, captured liangheguan, and took advantage of the victory to revive the city of Anzhou (now Ankang City, Shaanxi Province). In 1680, Yin Huaxing followed vonnell to rescue Yongning (West of Yongning River, Xuyong County, Sichuan Province). As a vanguard, Yin Huaxing defeated the enemy in tuochuan and defeated Wu Sangui and Hu Guozhu in Anning bridge. Yibin City, Sichuan Province was rescued by the army. Yin Huaxing and Li Fangshu, the chief soldier of Xining, guarded the Xuzhou capital. The enemy troops attacked in three ways. Yin Huaxing fought hard to repel them and established great achievements. Tuhai and hazhan jointly named Shangshu, stated Yin Huaxing's heroic contribution in the battle of recovering Sichuan and Shaanxi, so the imperial court specially promoted him as the Deputy General of Hanzhong City.

On merit by dismissal

In the 22nd year of Kangxi (1683), the imperial court recalled Yin Huaxing's detention during the rebellion of Wang Fuchen, and dismissed him. Ha Zhan thought that Yin Huaxing had not been appointed by Wang Fu Chen, and he made great contributions to the war. He asked the imperial court to restore the original official position of Yin Huaxing, so the imperial court restored the official position of Yin Huaxing and appointed him as the Deputy General of Santun camp in Zhili. In the 23rd year of Kangxi (1684), the imperial court pursued the merits of Yin Huaxing and granted him the title of capital secretary and assistant general. In 1686, Emperor Kangxi toured the northeast of the capital. Yin Huaxing's entourage and escorted him to hunt, which was appreciated by Emperor Kangxi. Emperor Kangxi gave Yin Huaxing his sabre.

Governing Taiwan

In 1687, Yin Huaxing was promoted to be the first Taiwan general of Fujian Province. The imperial court gave him Diao Qiu and platinum. Taiwan was originally ruled by Zheng Jing, the son of Zheng Chenggong. After Zheng Jing died, the sons fought for power and internal strife broke out. In 1683, Shi Lang, the commander of Fujian Navy, was ordered to lead the army to capture Penghu and recover Taiwan. In 1684, the Qing Dynasty set up a government and three counties in Taiwan, and set up a general officer and garrison in Taiwan. When Yin Huaxing arrived in Taiwan, the officials were discussing the construction of the city, but the discussion was still pending. Yin Huaxing thought that the coastal area was full of floating sand, so it was difficult to consolidate the construction of the city, so he ordered everyone in the Department to pay a tree to build the city with wood. In a few days, the city was built. So they ordered their subordinate departments to follow this method and build wooden cities to serve as a corner for each other. Later, he devoted himself to renovating military equipment, strengthening defense, and effectively preventing western colonists from invading Taiwan. In 1691, he was transferred to Xiangyang (now Xiangfan City, Hubei Province). At that time, drought occurred in Shaanxi, rice prices soared, and most of the people were displaced. The imperial court issued an imperial edict to transport the stone from Xiangyang to Shangzhou by water, and then to Xi'an by land. He also ordered Dezhu, the cabinet bachelor, Yin Huaxing and governor Ding Sikong to supervise the water and land transportation, and escorted the displaced people back to their hometown. Kangxi thirty-two years (1693), was transferred to Dengzhou (now Shandong province Penglai county) chief soldier, Ningxia (now the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region Yinchuan city) chief soldier.

Zhenggerdan

In the 35th year of Kangxi (1696), Emperor Kangxi's soldiers were divided into three groups to personally enlist the rebel forces of Qardam. Yin Huaxing led 3000 soldiers and went north with the west general to wengjinhe (in the south of modern Mongolia). Then he selected elite soldiers and headed northeast. He met with the rebel army of kardan in zhaomoduo (in the east of modern Ulan Bator of Mongolia). There is a hill in the south of the land, which is very dangerous. Yin Huaxing rushed to command the headquarters to occupy the top of the mountain. As soon as all the sergeants reached the top of the mountain, the enemy troops suddenly came and surrounded the hill. Yin Huaxing ordered to launch an attack, and gardan led the people to dismount and fight back, which was very fierce. Yin Huaxing then sent someone to offer advice to Fei Yanggu: "the enemy's position is solid, so we should send soldiers to attack from its side." Feiyanggu adopted his plan. When he saw that the enemy's flank was under attack, he ordered the headquarters to rush down the mountain. For a moment, the arrow was like rain, and the sound of it shocked the valley. The enemy was attacked head to tail, causing countless casualties. Gardan only led several riders to escape. The war of zhaomoduo basically annihilated the main force of the rebel forces in gardan, and the Qing army won a decisive victory in the war against the rebels. In this battle, Yin Huaxing ranked first. In the 36th year of Kangxi (1697), Yin Huaxing requested to continue to lead the army to annihilate the enemy. As far as the capital, Emperor Kangxi had already arrived in Ningxia, so the plaque of "deep abstinence" was given to Yin Huaxing, and he ordered him to lead 500 people to follow the general maska of Zhaowu to attack the remnant of gardan again. Soon, he ordered him to counselor military affairs. When the army arrived at guoduoli (today's southeast of dalanzhadagad in Mongolia) and balhasun (today's northeast of nomugang in Mongolia), in the face of the Qing army's two-way pursuit, most of the remnant gardan fled after hearing the wind, leaving only five or six hundred people. They had no food left and killed their horses every day. Tsarist Russia, which had originally supported Galdan, saw that Galdan had gone and refused to go to Russia. When Galdan was in a desperate situation, he killed himself by taking medicine. So far, with the support of tsarist Russia, the ethnic separatist rebellion launched by gardan was completely put down. After the imperial edict, Yin Huaxing returned to Ningxia.

Yin Huaxing led Liu Hu's troops to enter the cave and sent Lin Fang to the platoon to catch the troublemakers. Soon, Yao people killed Lin Fang and his soldiers. The imperial court appointed Song zhu as general and ordered Yin Huaxing, Guangxi and Hunan governor to send troops to attack. In the summer of the 41st year of Kangxi (1702), Yin Huaxing and other armies met in Lianzhou to guard the dangerous and important places. Because of the fear of the Qing army, Yao people dedicated Li Gui and Deng to the Qing army, so the rebellion was put down. Soon, the imperial court because of his deputy general Lin Fang was killed during the rebellion, and Yin Huaxing as the main general, failed to rescue, cut off his official position, to return home.
