The Rakshasa invaders also experienced the feeling of being mercilessly crushed and beaten.
They wanted to escape, but the east side of the narrow peninsula was intercepted by Ming warships. A group of sailors landed and formed a musket formation. They fired row after row of muskets, causing the Cossacks and shooting troops who fled in panic to fall to the ground.
, the clerical officers, secretaries, assistants and other clerical staff who were running slowly behind them were so frightened that they turned around and backed away.
Catching turtles in an urn.
Okhotsk Fort, which has been painstakingly built for more than ten years, was originally chosen to be located here surrounded by water on three sides, with only a narrow road leading to the bay on the north coast. It was thought that it would be convenient for ships to anchor and shelter from the wind, and it would also have an excellent location to prevent attacks by indigenous tribes.
, but unexpectedly, the Ming fleet directly surrounded and flattened it.
The castle has been occupied, and on the small peninsula, the Ming army is encircling and wiping out the Rakshasa people.
Infantry and artillery cooperated to advance continuously.
The gunners targeted the groups of Rakshasa Japs who had gathered together, forcing them to flee in all directions. But how could the scattered Rakshasa devils be any match for the volley of guns from the musketeers?
"surrender!"
"We surrender!"
Ivan, the chief steward, held up the white flag and waved it in disgrace. This lucky guy was knocked downstairs by the cannon, but he survived and ran outside the castle.
Many Rakshasa people shouted to surrender.
This is not a battle, this is a massacre.
Just like how they dealt with the rebellious indigenous people on their way east across the Wula Pass.
The Prime Minister looked at the white flag and could understand what those people were talking about.
"What are they talking about?" he called to the assistant.
"The Rakshasa ghost surrendered."
"Tell them to put down their weapons, kneel on their legs, hold their hands behind their heads, and come down on their knees. They will be spared death, but those armed with weapons will be killed without mercy!"
The general was an Eveni, and the Rakshasa called them the Ramtes. They were a branch of the Evenki, also known as the Soren tribe. They lived on the west coast of the Sea of Okhotsk, and they lived together with the Yukargir people.
Living together, we also learned many special habits from the Chukchi people, as well as the Dolgan people who raise reindeer, and the riverside Nejdal people who are nomadic and fishermen and hunters. They formed a group on the west coast of the North Sea with many common habits.
The Evenni people of the Okhota and Ulia rivers were invaded by the Rakshasa people, who forced them to pay taxes in kind and took people to the castle as collateral hostages. This general was originally the son of a Garzha head man and was
He was taken as a hostage and had to build a castle for the Tsarist Russians while wearing chains, farm the land, and dry fish. He stayed in the castle for a year before being exchanged by another group of hostages. He suffered a lot of torture there, but he also learned.
A lot of Tsarist Russian language.
Alkani excitedly stepped forward and loudly conveyed the orders of the envoys of the Great Tomorrow to the Rakshasa devils who had oppressed and enslaved him.
Ivan had already thrown away his matchlock gun. Hearing the sound, he planted the white flag on the ground, knelt down obediently, clasped his hands behind his head, then knelt on the ground and walked over on his knees.
A group of Tsarist Russians who had nowhere to escape also followed.
"Afudani, is that you?"
A group of Evenni people walked out of the castle, "It's me, Byrko."
"It's you, brother, are you still alive?"
"Well, he's still alive," Byrko said, holding a Cossack's head in his hand, and grabbing a blanket in the other hand. It was full of things they robbed in the castle, including axes, knives and even
Take tablecloths and candlesticks whenever you see them.
"I'm so happy to see you, brother. My name is not Afudani now, my name is Alkani now."
Afudani means born when leaves fall in the Evenian language, while Alkani means immortal and able to be reborn. After returning to the tribe from the castle, he followed his father to the Amur River slaves in the south.
In Ergan City, I saw the Ming Dynasty fleet. The furs they brought were exchanged for many good things, which was much fairer than those Rakshasa people.
They also heard the edict announced by the Han officials. They said that His Majesty the Emperor sent heavenly troops to drive out the invading Rakshasa ghosts and restore peace to the tribes. In the future, they would organize households to unite the people, trade with each other, and build a medical center here.
, school, etc.
The Han people recruited generals who could understand the Rakshasa language, so he decisively signed up, because the reward for the generals was actually a matchlock gun and a machete.
No one can refuse such an offer.
He joined the pioneer fleet and became a translator and guide. He also changed his name to Alkani. At that moment, he was reborn.
Byrko was once a member of the same race in their neighboring village, and Alkani's mother was from that village. Byrko was an excellent hunter, and his name originally meant sharp archer.
"These damn Rakshasa ghosts can never beat me again." Byrko excitedly held up the Cossack's head.
······
"Name!"
"Ivan Voiloshnikov."
Ivan explained honestly with his head downcast.
"identity!"
"Headmaster of Okhotsk Fort under the Yakutsk Governor's Mansion," he added after that, "I am a minor nobleman, can you give me the dignity of a nobleman?"
The dynasty minister was sitting in the still well-preserved palace of the castle steward, with the stove still burning. He listened to the words of the red-bearded Ivan and said disdainfully, "You are an invading robber and a captured defeated army. What qualifications do you have?"
What aristocratic dignity are you talking about?"
"Dear Chinese General, you cannot treat me like those Cossacks or exiles. I am a minor noble."
The Prime Minister turned around and asked, "Does anyone know who this little nobleman is and how great he is?"
Zhu Rongjie, who was wearing cotton armor with a red belt around his waist, said disdainfully, "Captain, don't listen to what this old man is saying. He is a big noble or a small noble. He is just a landlord in Tsarist Russia at most."
"Can a landowner also be called a noble?"
"So he said he is a minor noble."
Zhu Rongjie is a red-belted royal child. He was born in the fifth service. He is a close branch of the Chu vassal. He received a good education. He was once awarded the title of general of the country, and later received the title. But after all, he had also read books and was proficient in riding and archery. During the Northern Expedition,
He also served as an imperial guard, and now in the pioneering fleet, he is also a member of the fifth rank.
He had stayed with the emperor for three years, so he knew a lot about various European countries. Not only Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, England, and France, he also knew some about Tsarist Russia.
"Tsarist Russia is in the east of Europe. Unlike the feudal aristocrats of Britain, France, and Spain in Western Europe, the aristocrats of Tsarist Russia have never formed a unified upper-level national hierarchy. They don't even have a unified title.
Generally speaking, the nobility of Tsarist Russia included all military personnel. At that time, there were eight types of military personnel in Russia: boyars, imperial courtiers, Duma nobles, imperial ministers, palace miscellaneous courtiers, nobles, residents, and boyars.
The social origins of most service classes are very complex, and some are composed of princely families with titles, old boyars and descendants of boyars, and some civilians have also joined the service class."
The Prime Minister shook his head, "I don't understand, what is this boyar?"
"Let me explain briefly, the Slavs established the state of Kievan Rus in Eastern Europe a long time ago. In this Kievan Rus, except for the ruling Rurik family, the senior class of Rus can be roughly divided into boyars and service nobles.
.
Boyars are similar to our Zhou Dynasty officials, and serving nobles are similar to scholars.
Boyars come from the strongest warriors and richest people in the place, as well as the ruler's senior guards and counselors. They can even change their lords at any time, but with the unification of Rus and the settlement of princes, these boyars became subordinates of princes.
, owning land and paying taxes to the Grand Public, they became hereditary lords from then on.
At that time, the serving nobles were the managers of the Grand Duke's court affairs. They were the Grand Duke's personal servants and were equivalent to the court officials of the principality.
Later, during the Mongols' Western Expedition, Kiev was conquered by the Mongols, and Kievan Rus also fell apart and became independent principalities. The land allocated to future generations in Kievan Rus became the personal property of the new princes. The unified Rus no longer existed. Boya
Your relationship with the serving nobles and princes also disappeared.
The boyars were responsible for the palace and local administration, and led the army in wartime, while the serving nobles served as the main force of the army.
After the rise of the Principality of Muscovy, the Russian princes adopted a new form of land distribution, Bomistie, which allocated part of the land to nobles for temporary possession as remuneration for their service. The titled nobles did not have the right to sell, transfer or inherit. If
If you want to switch to another prince or retire, if you die and there are no men in the family to serve, the land will be taken back.
This makes it impossible for the nobles to change their lords as before. Changing the lord means that the land they have granted is gone. Moreover, when the princes grant the land, they also grant the peasants on the land to the nobles.
, those farmers became their serfs.”
The Prime Minister understood a lot now.
"Boyars are hereditary lords, and minor nobles are knights. Or are these military personnel similar to the soldiers of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, or the Eight Banners soldiers of the Tatars?"
"Absolutely. The biggest difference between various noble titles and levels is actually hereditary lords and granted landowners. However, after the tyrant Ivan IV led Tsarist Russia to destruction, after decades of chaos, although it is now stable, its strength is not
Things are not as good as before. Tsarist Russia lost a lot of land, and many of the great boyar nobles also lost their territories or became weak. Many boyars are not as good as some small nobles, and some small nobles have also gone bankrupt due to wars. This guy calls himself a small noble. I
It is estimated that one of his ancestors was granted land as a military service member, and then he inherited the military service and inherited the land."
The aristocracy of Tsarist Russia did not have levels such as princes, princes, and sons. Princes were not actually among the nobility. Boyars were considered big aristocrats, and many of them had declined. Small military aristocrats like Ivan were at most equivalent to the hereditary military positions of the Ming Dynasty.
"Come to think of it, maybe it's just a hereditary family. I thought it was a big fish, so I pulled it off, chopped off the big toes of its hands, feet, and then castrated it." The Prime Minister of the Dynasty waved his hands with a look of disgust.
Ivan couldn't understand Daming's words, so he could only watch them talking nervously.
Translator Alkani mockingly translated the results of his treatment to Ivan.
Castration?
Ivan was flustered, angry, and frightened, "I am a little nobleman, you can't do this to me."
"Cut it clean," the Prime Minister snorted coldly, and then looked at the other Rakshasa prisoners, "Those who are not castrated first, take them to repair the castle, and then let them cut down trees and chop firewood, and prepare more for heating and burning stoves.
Firewood, we're going to be here a long time,
It won’t be too late to take them back to the slaves after thawing and then castrate them!”
"Captain, there are winter camps at Wulia Fort and Taoyi Bay on the left and right sides of the coast, but there are not many people staying at those places to spend the winter. Do you want to sweep them away before the sea water freezes?"
"Well, we'll split up to sweep them away and make a quick decision. Remember to use artillery to blast them away before attacking."
Two fleets were quickly separated in the bay, each with six clipper ships, and they left with men and horses in a murderous manner. The Prime Minister of the Dynasty led the six ships to stay in Qundumei Port to deal with the aftermath.
Three days later, the two fleets returned one after another from east to west. By this time, there were more and more floating ice on the sea surface.
Returned with a full load.
They wiped out more than a hundred Tsarists in the two camps, taking away the prisoners and castles, the in-kind tax mink pelts collected in the winter camp, the furs hunted by the hunters, the furs traded, and the dried fish they stored
, dried meat, and even firewood were all brought back.
The ship came into port, and the Prime Minister planned to spend the winter in peace.
