Chapter 4 I'm a Bannerman and I'm Proud

It is true that the old man of the Jia family has made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty. Otherwise, the Jia family would not have been honored to raise the flag, and transformed from a lowly Han to a bannerman of glory.

These days, what is the nature of the Han people turning into bannermen?

Smoke from the ancestral grave!
The forehead is open to the sky, and the nostrils are facing the sky!

It's just that Jia Daquan said that he and his grandfather Jia Zuwang had shed blood for the Qing Dynasty, and Jia Liu said that this matter is open to discussion.

Because Jia Zuwang traveled westward with honor before Jia Liu was born, Jia Liu heard all about Jia Zuwang's deeds from Jia Daquan.

Among them, Jia Zuwang's heroic deeds in the battle with Tongbo are often mentioned repeatedly by Jia Daquan.

The battle with Tongbo took place in the ninth year of Yongzheng. The Qing government decided to send out the northern and western armies to block the Junggar army. The commander of the northern army was the famous Jingbian general Fu Erdan.As soon as the imperial decree was issued, the Eight Banners soldiers of the Beijing Normal University transferred 8000 soldiers to Fu Erdan's command.

At that time, 2000 people were drawn from the Han Army Banner, and among them was Jia Zuwang, who succeeded his father Jia Han and inherited Yunqi Lieutenant.Also because of the Spyker of Lieutenant Yunqi, Jia Zuwang also served as the fourth-rank deputy leader.

As a result, the Qing army was defeated in this battle. Many Manchurian generals committed suicide because they could not break through the encirclement, and the Eight Banners of the Beijing Normal University suffered heavy losses.Under the desperate protection of some generals and guards, Fu Erdan was lucky enough to break through and save his life.

According to Jia Daquan, in order to protect General Fu Erdan, Jia Zuwang broke out of the siege and led dozens of Han warriors to fight to the death with the Junggar people dozens of times his own. In the end, all his subordinates died in the battle, and he himself was seriously injured and unconscious.

After the Junggars retreated, the Fengtian Eight Banners soldiers rushed to find Jia Zuwang who was still alive among the dead.After returning to Beijing, General Fu Erdan came to visit Jia Zuwang on purpose, and the whole Xiliu Hutong was very sensational.

This is what Jia Daquan said.

For a long time, Jia Liu believed in this matter, until more than two years ago, he heard another version at a gathering of Han army banner disciples.

Indeed, Jia Zuwang participated in the battle with Tongbo, but his performance on the battlefield was completely different from what he told his son.

At that time, the Junggars mobilized heavy troops to attack Fu Erdan's central camp. In addition to Fu Erdan personally leading the Qing army to fight back, there were Horqin soldiers with red banners and Tumo special soldiers with white banners also fighting bloody battles with the Junggars.

However, when both Qing and Zhun were fighting bloody battles, someone in the Qing army suddenly panicked and shouted that the Tumets had been defeated. As a result, the Qing army was in chaos, and the Junggars seized the opportunity to break through the Qing army camp.

In this campaign, the North Route Army led by Fu Erdan counted 8000 Eight Banners soldiers from the capital, 9000 chariot battalion soldiers, and more than 8000 Eight Banners soldiers from Fengtian and other places. Biggest defeat of the year.

After the war, on the one hand, Fu Erdan went to court to plead guilty, on the other hand, he was also investigating who was shouting in the battle and causing the army to lose, and vowed to tear this person into pieces.

It's just that there were too many dead Qing troops, and it was so chaotic at the time, who knows who called it?This matter cannot be thoroughly investigated, and in the end it can only be regarded as the guy who yelled and died in Hetongbo.

Until the 23rd year of Qianlong, which is the year when Jia Zuwang died, Ma Qingxiang, a banner man who joined Jia Zuwang in the North Route Army and a distant relative of Jia's family, told people after drinking that the one who yelled at Hetongbo and led to the defeat of the army was Jia Zuwang who just met Hades.

Why did Jia Zuwang do this?

It wasn't intentional, but I was frightened by the Junggar's offensive at the time. I don't know if it was because I didn't make up my mind or because I saw the Tumed people's white banner fall, so I just yelled casually.

After recovering, Jia Zuwang realized that something was wrong. He was so frightened that he couldn't even walk. In the end, Ma Qingxiang pulled him and escaped with the defeated army.

He said that he had a nose and an eye, and that Jia Zuwang transferred all [-] acres of fertile land from his family to the Ma family in order to silence Ma Qingxiang.

Due to short manpower and relatives, Ma Qingxiang did not report Jia Zuwang to the capital's yamen.After so many years, he kept his mouth shut until Jia Zuwang passed away.

Not many people know about this matter, Ma Qingxiang's grandson Ma Wenwu is one of them.

So when Jia Liu was bragging to others about how brave his grandfather was back then, Ma Wenwu uttered another version he heard in public with a "poof".

For this reason, Jia Liu, who never believed that his grandfather was so unbearable, had a fight with Ma Wenwu.

The current Jia Liu thinks that what Ma Wenwu said may be true. If Jia Zuwang is really as brave as Jia Daquan said, how could he not be promoted after being rescued, and even the deputy leader was taken away, and he never went out again?

Now that the parties involved have all gone to see Lord Yan, and 40 years have passed since the battle between Li and Tongbo, any doubts have become clear under the scouring of time.

Jia Liu had no intention of probing whether Jia Zuwang's heroic deeds were adulterated, but he was sure that Jia Daquan had never shed blood for Daqing, not even a drop.

Because Daquan fell off a horse and broke his leg on the way back to the Ministry with Zhaohui in the 24th year of Qianlong, he never went to Xinjiang at all.

Can this be regarded as bloodshed for the Qing Dynasty?

Almost in tears!

Regardless of whether the second and third generations of the Jia family have shed blood and tears for the Qing Dynasty, based on the performance of the old man Jia Hanfu, the Qing court has no reason to throw the hero out of the flag.

Jia Liu, who accidentally fell into the birdcage, felt flustered and couldn't accept the "bad news" brought by his father.

Without it, the identity of the Bannerman is too important!

This identity is directly related to whether Jia Liu can step into the core of the political arena of the Qing Dynasty!
Especially in the Qianlong Dynasty, this man was very wary of the Han people, and he was also very thieves, so the important official positions in the Qianlong Dynasty were all in Manchuria and Mongolia.

The most typical evidence is the portraits of heroes Qianlong made in Ziguang Pavilion. There are a total of 50 people before and after. The question is which one is Han?
Therefore, if Jia's family really wants to become a Han Chinese, Jia Liu's official career may die before he starts, and if he doesn't die, it will be a big discount.

Will this work?
On that dark and stormy night, after dripping half a stick of incense with candle oil, Jia Liu clearly pointed out a direction for his future - to be an official, to be the biggest official!
If he wanted to become an official, the current situation of Jia's family would definitely not be able to provide Jia Liu with much help, so he wanted to make a fuss about Qianlong's mother's [-]th birthday, and finally the big drama "Three Trials of Galileo" was freshly released.

However, the project has not yet started, the dream has not yet taken on wings, and Genzheng Miaohong's background is not guaranteed. How can Jia Liu bear it!

Among other things, just the word "banner man" has half a future ahead of the Han people.

Therefore, with a dubious attitude, Jia Liu and his father came to the Zhenglan Banner Dutong Yamen of the Han Army located in Dongchang Hutong.
