Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 528 Relocation of Alchuka Fortress
"This..." Bu He hesitated for a long time, but he didn't know how to answer.

"Let me ask you again, all the people in Horqin have migrated to Xuan Town, from the grassland. Do you think they are still from Horqin? Or, if I conquer the grassland in the future, all the tribes on the grassland will Gather them separately and divide the provinces according to where the tribes are located.

In other words, the place where you Horqin is located is called Horqin Province, the place where Khalkha is located is called Khalkha Province, and the place where Chahar is located is called Chahar Province.

At that time, do you think your Horqin is still the former Horqin? " Zhao Wen asked again.

"This, this, this, I don't know what to say!"

Now, Bu He was completely confused.He really couldn't figure out what was going on here, and Bu He racked his brains, and couldn't figure out how to solve these problems.

If all the people in Horqin are moved to Xuan Town, can Horqin still be called Horqin?If a group of Han people were moved to the place where Horqin is, should these Han people also be called Horqin?

If Horqin is split into several parts and spread out, will Horqin really disappear?

"Actually, I can completely understand what you're thinking, you're just afraid that Horqin will be ruined by you.

I think you can completely dispel this idea. Some things, no matter how the appearance changes, the core cannot be changed.

After the reforms of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the Xianbei clan completely disappeared and integrated into the Han people.But can you say that the Xianbei clan is really gone?

What has changed is only a name, customs, and blood are all fused together, becoming the appearance of me in you and you in me.

From ancient times to the present, there are not a few Sinicized ethnic groups, but do you say that they have all disappeared?Say it yourself, have they all disappeared?In the final analysis, what is changed is only a name, just like your name is Buhe, if you change your name and change your way of life, wouldn't you be you? "

As Zhao Wen kept explaining, Bu He gradually understood.

"That's right, it's just the name that changed. Just like I, Horqin, was not called Horqin before. If I, Horqin, changed my name in the future, it wouldn't mean that I, Horqin, would perish. It just continued in a different way.

Although the name is gone, we have not disappeared, we just changed our name.It's like I am a herdsman now, I can't survive in Horqin, and then I ran to Khalkha.

In order to prevent people in Khalkha from knowing me, I changed my name.But it is impossible for me to change my name because I am still me, but the name has changed. "

Bu He patted his thigh, suddenly realized.

"It's good to know, you know, if there were no Emperors Yan and Huang back then, we wouldn't be where we are today.

The two Emperors Yan and Huang fought wars back then, but why could they merge together?

The word Han comes from the Han Dynasty. If there is no Han Dynasty, wouldn’t we be us?Or, did we not exist before the Han Dynasty?
No, we've always existed, it's just a name change.No matter how the name changes, we will always be us.So, don't worry about these things.

We live under the same sky, and your grassland and our Central Plains have been fighting for thousands of years.We are all living citizens of this land, and we are also living citizens of this land from birth to death.

So, I want you to remember that no matter how your names change, you are one of us.Although there are differences, the bottom line is the same.

As the old saying goes, seek common ground while reserving differences.So, a little difference doesn't mean anything. "Zhao Wen said slowly while riding on the horse, looking at the sun in the sky.

Bu He followed Zhao Wen, his brows gradually relaxed, and his guard was completely lowered.

"My lord is right, my lord is very right." Bu He kept nodding his head.

"Your Excellency said yes, we are the same kind of people. To be honest, we have been neighbors with Da Ming for so many years, there is not much hatred between us and Da Ming, everything is forced by the weather on the grassland.

But building a slave is different. What is building a slave?What are they?I look like a villain who has achieved success. When Jiannu rose up, I, Horqin, joined forces with Haixi Jurchen to attack Jiannu.

It's a pity that at that time, the strength was not enough, coupled with disunity, they were defeated by Jiannu one by one.Later, Nurhachi and Huang Taiji counterattacked and came to the grassland.

If we hadn't been blocked by Daming so badly that we couldn't get iron, would Nurhachi and Huang Taiji be my opponents in the grassland?
In the past 200 years of being neighbors with Daming, we have been blocked by Daming too much, and we are so poor.

If Da Ming could communicate with each other like an adult, and treat us like one of our own, we might have surrendered early on, so how could there be any troubles in the future?

We have also been brilliant, and our ancestors were also rich, so there is nothing we can't think about.But Jianu, hehe, their ancestors were nothing.It was hard to get a big gold country back then, but it was gone.Moreover, this Dajin Kingdom has little relationship with Nurhachi, and Nurhachi still shamelessly put gold on his face. "

The more Bu He talked, the more excited he became, and the more he talked, the more excited he became, and finally he danced on his horse.

"It's good that you can understand these things, it's good that you can understand these things." Zhao Wen nodded repeatedly.

The two rode on war horses, talking as they walked.

The guards who followed them couldn't hear what the two of them were saying because of the distance.

Aji, who was leading the way, could not understand Chinese, so he just listened to the wind.

"Here we are, this is our tribe!"

At this moment, Aji stopped suddenly. He pointed to a small hill ahead and looked at Buhe.

"This is your tribe?" Bu He looked at the empty hillside in front of him and asked with a puzzled expression.

Aji said: "Cross this hillside, behind is our tribe."

Aji said and walked forward.

Seeing this, Zhao Wen and Bu He mobilized their horses and moved forward slowly.

When he reached the top of the hill, a small village appeared in front of Zhao Wen.

The village is not big, and it looks like there are only thirty or forty households.

The houses in the village are basically built with earth and wood, and the walls are very thick.

The roof is two-story, two-story wooden boards are wrapped with nearly a pile of thick soil, and the top is covered with thatch.

In the middle of the village, there is a house built with bricks and tiles, but this house is a half-finished product.

The bricks used in the house are the bricks that were scraped from the city wall.

There is a small square in the middle of the village, with several pillars standing on it, with hemp ropes tied on the pillars, and some animal skins and dried meat are hung on the hemp ropes.

Some undressed children were playing in the square. When they saw Zhao Wen and others riding on horses, they thought they were Jian slaves, and ran towards the depths of the village like flying.

There are several working women in the square, also wearing animal skins.

When they saw Zhao Wen and the others, they also flew towards the depths of the village.

Aji stood where he was, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

He hurriedly ran towards the village with his men, shouting as he ran, "Come back, these people are not slaves, come back, come back, don't be afraid, these people won't hurt us."

Aji heard the word Jiannu from Buhe. They didn't know that Jiannu was the people who ruled them.

When Bu He explained clearly, he also yelled.

Looking at the fleeing crowd, Zhao Wen jumped off his horse.

"My lord, it looks like there are only about 100 families here, and the population is estimated to be more than [-]." Li Xiaosan stood beside Zhao Wen, looking at the village in front of him, and said to Zhao Wen.

Zhao Wen didn't answer, and kept looking at the village in front of him.

Compared with the villages in the Central Plains and other places, the villages of Yejuzhen are really primitive.

He didn't even have a decent tool, and Zhao Wen could even see a stone ax made of stone.

Also, how do these wild Jurchens know how to smelt iron.

Not to mention that Yejuren don't understand, even Bu He and these grassland people who have been fighting against Daming for more than 200 years don't understand.

"I guess there is not even a single iron pot in this village, look at this posture!"

Bu He stood beside Zhao Wen, with his hands behind his back, squinting his eyes and said.

"Back in our grasslands, iron pots were very precious things. Even if an iron pot was broken, as long as it could hold water, it could still be used, and I was reluctant to throw it away.

Alas, when I see this scene in front of me now, I think of my days in Horqin.

Poor, I, Horqin, was really poor back then.Things like iron pots are common things for ordinary people in the Central Plains, but on the grasslands, they are more precious than silver.

An iron pot can even cause two small tribes to fight. Back then, Daming blocked us too much, even a small iron pot was not given. " Buhe let out a long breath. Looking at the small village in front of him, he couldn't help thinking of Horqin back then.

Back then, Horqin was just a little bit better than the wild Jurchen village in front of me.

Zhao Wen said: "The imperial family of the Ming Dynasty is afraid. They are afraid of repeating the disaster of the former Song Dynasty, so they desperately blocked you."

"Afraid of us? Why are you afraid of us? We have long since lost the ability of Genghis Khan at that time. When Qian Yuan was firmly established in the country, what he thought of was not the world, but the throne under his ass.

There were a total of more than 90 years in the former Yuan Dynasty, but there were eleven emperors alone. After all, one emperor could not be an emperor for ten years.

Everyone thinks about being an emperor, and their minds are all on the throne. What's so good about being an emperor?In order to be the emperor, people's brains have been turned into dog brains, and they quit their business, thinking about tricks and the throne.

Brothers kill each other, uncles and nephews kill each other, fathers and sons kill each other.Such a country can only be blamed for the long run. "

Bu He really couldn't figure out why Daming had anything to be afraid of them. He was more afraid of guarding against them than guarding against thieves.

"You don't understand. Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of well ropes for ten years." Zhao Wen didn't know how to explain it, and he didn't know how to say it, so he could only throw out such a universal sentence.

While the two were talking, Aji called out all the wild Jurchens in the tribe.

They stood on the small square in the village, looking at Zhao Wen and the others with fear on their faces.

Some timid ones knelt directly on the ground, kowtowing non-stop.

Aji stood in front of them, pointed at Zhao Wen and others and shouted at these people: "These people are from Daming, does Daming know? It's not Jiannu, Jiannu is the one who ruled us before, now Jiannu Already defeated by them.

These people are different from Jiannu, they will not harm us, don't be afraid, these people are good people, don't be afraid of them. "

Aji pointed at Zhao Wen and the others, and shouted at the wild Jurchens standing in the small square.

Aji yelled for nearly half an hour, and Zhao Wen and the others did not do anything else, so these wild Jurchens gradually believed Aji's words.

"My lords, everyone in our tribe is here."

Aji came in front of Zhao Wen and Bu He, knelt down on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed to them.

Zhao Wen waved his hands and said, "Get up!"

Bu He hurriedly translated Zhao Wen's voice.

When they stood up, Zhao Wen looked at Buhe again, "Ask them, see if there are any wild Jurchen tribes like them around.

It is not a problem for these people to live here, let everyone around them move to Alchuka Fortress.Anyway, Alchuka Fortress is empty, so it would be good for them to move in and take care of the city for us. "

Bu He nodded, then walked up to Aji and began to ask questions.

After a while, Bu He returned to Zhao Wen, "Sir, according to what Aji said, there are seven or eight wild Jurchen tribes within a radius of twenty miles.

All the people of these Wild Jurchen tribes add up to about a thousand people. Apart from their surroundings, if you go to the northeast, there are still many Wild Jurchen tribes living in the mountains. "

"Then let these people move to the Alchuka Fortress first, as for the wild Jurchen living in the mountains, we will talk about it later." Zhao Wen said, looking at Li Xiaosan, "Little San, send five hundred soldiers The horse came over to help these wild Jurchens, and at the same time took Aji to find the tribes he mentioned.

After finding these tribes, I will move them all to the Alchuka Fortress, and then give them some winter quilts and cotton clothes to prevent them from freezing to death.Remember, after moving to Alchuka Fortress, build landmark buildings for me around the city walls, and at the same time change the name of Alchuka Fortress to Harbin.

In addition, set up a stone tablet near the city wall, and write me a word of declaration on the stone tablet.After finishing all this, let Ye Bushou surround the city and draw a detailed topographic map. "

Zhao Wen didn't bother to think about the name, so he directly took out the names of later generations.

Alchuka Fortress is the former name of Harbin in later generations.

Li Xiaosan cupped his fists at Zhao Wen and said, "Follow your lord's order!"
