會福靈安先被命廉軍事，具言宏榜諸人失守狀，應琚亦劾德成等遲留不進，於是俱逮問，而以楊寧為提督，且以應琚不勝任，召明瑞代統其軍。 At the time Fuling'an had already been ordered to investigate military affairs in detail; he reported how Hongbang and others had lost their posts. Yingju also impeached Decheng and others for delay in advancing; they were all arrested and brought up for interrogation. Yang Ning was made Regional Commander-in-Chief, and because Yingju was unfit for his post, Ming Rui was summoned to take command of the army.
乾隆二十一年，師徵阿睦爾撒納，明瑞以副都統銜授領隊大臣，有功，擢戶部侍郎，授參贊大臣，於公爵加「毅勇」字，號承恩毅勇公。 In the twenty-first year of Qianlong, when the army campaigned against Amursana, Ming Rui was appointed leading commander with the rank of Vice Commander-in-Chief. For his merit he was promoted to Vice Minister of Revenue and appointed campaign coordinator; the characters "Resolute and Brave" were added to his ducal title, and he was styled Duke of Enfeoffment, Resolute and Brave.
明瑞疏陳素誠狂縱激變，及參贊納世通虐回民，阻援師，副都統弁塔哈掩敗妄奏諸狀，上令尚書阿桂至軍，按誅納世通、弁塔哈。 Ming Rui memorialized that Such eng's arrogance and license had provoked the uprising, that Coordinator Nashitong had abused the Muslims and blocked relief troops, and that Vice Commander-in-Chief Biantaha had concealed defeats and filed false reports; the Emperor ordered Minister Agui to the army to investigate and execute Nashitong and Biantaha.
上以明瑞得渠魁，未詳鞫為亂狀，亂回至圍急始縛獻首惡，不可輕宥，所措置皆不當，與阿桂同下部議，奪職，命留任。 The Emperor held that although Ming Rui had obtained the ringleader, he had not thoroughly investigated the facts of the rebellion; the rebel Muslims had only bound and presented the chief culprit when the siege grew desperate and could not be lightly pardoned; all his dispositions were improper. He and Agui were both referred to the Board, stripped of office, and ordered to remain at their posts.
