Five hundred and twentieth chapters Cang Haijun's confusion
Liu Che turned back and sat down, and then ordered Wang Dao: "Go and invite Mr. Canghai, don't disturb the real one, Ma Han's second..."
The power of Yiren is currently the most trustworthy force of the Han Dynasty in the northeast.
Now, according to Liu Che's order, the official office of the captain in the northern part of Liaodong has crossed the Bai River and penetrated deep into the control area of Yao people, where a brand new immigrant city has been established.
This city was named "Xinhua" by Liu Che, and its meaning is already clear.
Xinhua City was probably located along the Sino-Russian border in later generations, probably close to the Tumen River. For China in this era, it belonged to a completely new world.
The establishment of Xinhua City and the eastward relocation of the northern governor's office expanded the Han Dynasty's territory by hundreds of thousands of square kilometers in name.
Liu Che plans to build a new city named Huaihua after the spring of this year, hundreds of miles northeast of Xinhua City on the border with Huai people.
These two cities served as the cornerstone of the Han Dynasty's strategy towards the Far East.
Whether it is Xinhua or Huaihua, the construction and subsequent expansion of the city cannot be separated from the support and cooperation of the Yao people who have lived here for generations.
More importantly, Liu Che discovered that a rather interesting phenomenon was gradually emerging among the Han vassal states in the Far East and Korea.
That is, the remaining aristocrats, tribes and other large and small sick people of Zhenfan, Ma Han, Wei's Korean regime, and other large and small sick people.
Ask, force, interrogate, Nasha, move Ke Sheng
The Hao people are like Chahar, Zhenfan, Mahan and other tribes are like other Mongolian tribes.
This made Liu Che sometimes unable to control his temper and wanted to play with the Dongyi Eight Banners system.
After thinking about it, Liu Che gave up the idea.
It’s not that the Dongyi Eight Banners system is unworkable.
In fact, the Eight Banners system can be considered a black technology in this era.
With good control, you can directly raise all these tribes, large and small, into dogs.
but……
All Dongyi tribes are, in theory, members of the Chinese cultural circle.
The ancestors of tribal kingdoms such as the Hao people and the Mahan people were even ethnic minorities who migrated from China to the Far East and North Korea.
It can be said that it has a deep blood connection with the Chinese nation.
At the very least, at this time, both in terms of culture and blood relationship, they can be considered very close.
Similar to this are the Mitsukoshi Kingdom and the Southwest Yi Kingdoms.
Liu Che regarded these kingdoms and tribes as quasi-citizens.
In the future, all people will be assimilated into Chinese.
However, the Eight Banners system is a system that emphasizes ethnic distinctions and strengthens ethnic cognition.
No matter how successful the Manchu Eight Banners system was.
However, the Eight Mongolian Banners are always the Eight Banners of the Mongols, the Eight Banners of the Han are always the Eight Banners of the Han, and the Eight Banners of the Manchu are always the Eight Banners of the Manchu.
Playing with the Eight Banners system in the homeland and its surrounding core interest areas?
Liu Che hadn't thought enough to learn from the Clan Committee, so he went out of his way to remind these tribes and ethnic groups that he was not Han, but Hao, Yue, Zhenfan, Mahan, Yelang, Dian, etc.
However, there may be opportunities in the future, and the Western Regions and India can be used as pilot projects for the Eight Banners system.
About a quarter of an hour later, Canghaijun Nangong Xin came to Liu Che.
"I pay my respects to Your Majesty. May Your Majesty live forever!" Nangong Xin knelt down in a formal manner, bowed three times and kowtowed nine times in the courtesy of a minister.
His title of Lord of Canghai, whether in name or in fact, is now Hanchen.
When he was first named Lord Canghai, Nangong Xin was still very confident that the emperor of the Han Dynasty would treat him like Mitsukoshi in the south.
That is, only suzerainty, not administrative power.
But how did he know that the current Han Dynasty had already sharpened their swords against Mitsukoshi, so how could they have the brains to support a new separatist force in the northeast?
Neither tradition nor interests will allow such a thing to happen.
He had just received the title and returned to the tribe when he found that the northern captain of Liaodong, with more than 2,000 county soldiers, crossed the Baishui River and began to build a city on the edge of the "fish sea".
In just two months, a brand new city has stood beside the "sea of fish".
Although this city is simple and simple, it is still relatively small.
But like a magnet, it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The Han people openly listed salt, iron, tea, wine, and cloth in the city's commodity catalogue.
Salt is a necessity for Hao people's life, and iron is a precious metal that all tribes desire and hope to obtain. As for tea and wine, it is even more crazy.
Especially wine, no one, no matter the nobles, tribal chiefs or warriors, can resist the magical liquid that warms the whole body after drinking it.
As for cloth, for the majority of Hao people who still use fish skins and animal skins as clothing to keep out the cold, this is simply good news from heaven.
Even he, the co-leader of Yiren, could not control it at all. His leaders, warriors and tribal chiefs all went to the city called "Xinhua" to trade.
Although it is not obvious yet, Nangong Xin is very clear that with the establishment and continuous growth of Xinhua City, this city will continue to convert Hao people into Han people.
For example, now, several tribes have begun to join Xinhua City. Under the guidance of Han officials, they have abandoned their hard life of fishing and hunting and settled around Xinhua City. Han officials have guided them to build new solid houses.
Clearing the land in preparation for this year's planting.
Nangong Xin sent someone to Xinhua City to question, but was told that this was the emperor's will.
Peng Wu, the captain of the northern part of Liaodong County, an old friend of his, even publicly declared: Fishing and hunting are hard, and raising people is hard. The Holy Emperor felt the same way, so he ordered his officials to come to the wilderness to educate the subjects, so that they could have shelter and food.
The orphans and widows can be cared for, and injuries and illnesses can be treated.
All of a sudden, the big and small heads of all the tribes in Hao were all moved and burst into laughter.
Even Nangong Xin felt the same way.
The life of Yi Ren is indeed very difficult.
It is different from China and the Xiongnu.
If people want to survive, they mainly rely on the fish in the sea and the fish in the water.
If there is insufficient fishing in a certain year, tens of thousands of tribal people will die of starvation or disease.
Even the leaders and nobles of the Yiren tribe were not spared.
Nangong Xin remembered that his grandfather, the co-owner of Tangtang Yiren, died of an illness because he could only eat last year's dried fish because there was not enough fish in the sea.
Even in years when fishing is plentiful, as many tribal people drown, freeze to death, or are killed by wild beasts every year just to catch fish.
The establishment of Xinhua City and the arrival of officials from the Han Dynasty pointed out a new path and a new world to the various tribes of the Hao people.
No more risking your life for fishing, no more worrying about the belly of your offspring who are waiting for food, no more huddled in caves, caves and fires shivering in the cold weather, no more worries,
Can you survive until the next morning?
The officials sent by the Holy Emperor brought a new road to the Hao people, and they laid this road out in front of all the Hao people openly.
Houses made of stone bricks are far superior to the cave dwellings of the past in terms of comfort and safety.
The house is large, spacious and bright.
There is a stove in the house. There is also a fireplace for heating. Just put some firewood in and the whole house will be warm all night. Just like in summer, you no longer have to worry about waking up the next morning to find your wife, children, father, and mother.
Frozen into ice cubes.
More importantly, several great sages from the Han Dynasty who were said to be Mohists, after coming to Xinhua, designed a bedding called "Huotai" in response to the local environment and the extreme cold in winter.
.
When sleeping on a fire pit, even if the air outside turns to ice, the family on the pit will not feel any discomfort and sleep very sweetly all night.
The agricultural officials of the Han people guided the Yi tribe to reclaim wasteland, dig wells to collect water, and build sanitary facilities.
Nowadays, everyone in the tribes that have joined Xinhua City is living a happy life that they could only dream about in the past.
Officials of the Han Dynasty said that in the spring of next year, after the seeds are sown, as long as one year old, those tribes will never have to worry about starvation and cold. People over forty years old will no longer have to go to the mountains and forests to wait to die.
.
Children, grandchildren, and nephews will have enough energy and enough food to support them in their old age.
Facing all these changes and hopes, Nangong Xin was confused and excited at the same time.
He is confused and doesn't know where he will be in the future.
The co-owner of Yiren?
It may still be the case now, but in a few years, I am afraid that the various tribes of the Hao people who have tasted the benefits will only obey the orders of the Han people from Xinhua City.
Although, as the patriarch who brought the 'mercy' and 'kindness' of the Holy Emperor of the Han Dynasty to the Hao people, he and his family will definitely receive the gratitude of the tribal leaders.
However, as in the past, the position of being the one and only person among the people is gone forever.
The Han people used salt, iron, tea, cloth and wine to completely suppress all the tribes, and made them loyal and surrender with a future that everyone wanted.
Therefore, Nangong Xin doesn’t know where the future lies for himself and his family?
Before he came to Chang'an, the governor of Liaodong County of the Han Dynasty had already issued an order to the various tribes of the Hao people. According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, each tribe was required to report the number of households and population in family units, and also ordered the members of each tribe to
Men over the age of 18 and under the age of 25 are required to undergo military training.
From Xinhua City, hundreds of soldiers were dispatched to the settlements of various tribes to guide the training of the Yi people.
The northern captains have even begun to appoint Li Zheng and Pavilion chiefs in some tribes close to Xinhua City. After the beginning of spring, Yao Fu and You Jiao will also start to be appointed.
Although, these positions are still held by the tribal leaders and upper-class noble warriors.
But Nangong Xin always felt that something was strange.
But I can't explain why.
As for excitement?
As the leader and leader of the tribe, he certainly has reason to be excited when faced with the fact that the tribe is getting better day by day and will be even better in the future.
However, these two feelings made Nangong Xin uneasy.
Sometimes I even have nightmares.
With such a mood, Nangong Xin came to Chang'an. He hoped to ask the emperor of Chang'an for advice. He could not be called stupid. In fact, Nangong Xin had never seen or encountered such a scene. It was like the Chinese people after the Opium War in later generations faced
With the powerful ships and cannons of the Western powers, and their completely different traditional behavior styles, the Chinese people under the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty still did not know what to do, were confused, and even at a loss.
For the Hao people, the current situation is indeed the biggest change and challenge they have encountered since their ancestors migrated from China to the Northeast during the Yin and Shang Dynasties. (To be continued...)
