Haisheng Mingdi

Chapter 798 I am a nobleman
Rakshasa invaders also tasted the feeling of being ruthlessly crushed and beaten.

They wanted to escape, but the east side of the long and narrow peninsula was blocked by warships of the Ming army. A group of sailors landed and lined up in a formation of muskets. Row after row of muskets fired in salvo, causing the Cossacks and shooting soldiers who had fled in a panic to fall to the ground one after another. A bunch of clerical staff such as clerks, secretaries, and assistants who were running slowly behind them turned their heads back in a panic in fright.

Catching turtles in a urn.

Fort Okhotsk, which has been painstakingly managed for more than ten years, was originally chosen to be surrounded by water on three sides, with only one narrow road leading to the bay on the north shore. It is convenient for ships to park and shelter from the wind, and it has an excellent location to prevent attacks from indigenous tribes. , but unexpectedly let the Ming army's fleet directly surround Hongping.

The castle has been occupied, and on the small peninsula, the Ming army is encircling and suppressing the Raksha people.

The infantry coordinated and continued to advance.

The gunners only picked out the piles of gathered Raksha devils, forcing them to scatter and flee, but how could the scattered Rakshasa defeat the musketeers' volleys of guns.

"surrender!"

"We surrender!"

The manager, Ivan, held up the white flag in disgrace and waved it. This lucky guy was knocked down the stairs by the cannon, but he didn't die, and even ran outside the castle.

Many Rakshas shouted their surrender.

This is not a battle, this is a massacre.

Just like they dealt with the rebellious natives all the way across the Wula Mountain Pass.

Wang Chaoxiang looked at the white flag and could understand what those people Uriwala were talking about.

"What are they talking about?" He called Tong Shi.

"The Rakshasa ghost has surrendered."

"Tell them to put down their weapons, kneel on the ground, put their hands behind their heads, and come down on their knees. They will die, and those who hold the weapons will be killed without mercy!"

Tongshi is an Evanni. Luocha called them Lamut people. They belong to the Evenki tribe, also known as the Sauronbet tribe. They live on the west coast of the Sea of ​​Okhotsk. They live mixed with the Yukagil people. They lived together and learned many special habits from the Chukchi people, as well as the Dolgan people who raised reindeer, and the Negidal people on the riverside who were nomadic and fisherman. They formed a group on the west coast of the North Sea with many common habits.

The Evanni people in the Okhota River and the Uria River were invaded by the Rakshas, ​​they were forced to pay taxes in kind, and they were arrested and taken to the castle as hostages. He was captured as a hostage, wearing chains and had to build castles, farm land, and dry fish for the Tsarist Russians. 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.

Alkani stepped forward excitedly, and loudly conveyed the orders of the envoys of the Great Tomorrow Dynasty to the Rakshasa devils who had oppressed and enslaved him.

Ivan had thrown away his matchlock gun a long time ago, planted the white flag on the ground when he heard the sound, 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.

"Afdani, is that you?"

A group of Evanni came out of the castle, "It's me, Belko."

"It's you, brother, are you still alive?"

"Well, still alive," Baierko held the head of a Cossack in his hand, and grabbed a blanket in the other hand, which was full of things they robbed in the castle, such as axes, knives and even Tablecloths and candlesticks are taken whenever you see them.

"So happy to see you, brother, my name is not Afudani now, I am Al Khani now."

Afudani, in the Evani language, means to be born when the leaves fall, and Alkani means to be immortal and able to be reborn. After returning to the tribe from the castle, he followed his father to the slaves of the Amur River in the south. In Gancheng, I saw the fleet of the Ming Dynasty. The furs they brought were exchanged for a lot of good things, which was much fairer than those Raksha people.

They also heard the decree of the Han officials. They said that His Majesty sent heavenly soldiers to expel the invading Rakshasa ghosts and return the tribes to peace. In the future, the people will be registered as households, trade and markets will be established here, and a medical center will be built here. , School, etc.

The Han recruited a general who could speak Rakshasa, and he signed up decisively, because the reward for the general was a matchlock gun and a machete.

No one can refuse such an offer.

He joined the Trail Blazers fleet and became a translator and guide. He also changed his name to Arkani. At that moment, he was reborn.

Bairko used to be a member of the same family in their neighboring village. Alkany's mother came from that village. Bairko was an excellent hunter, and his name originally meant a sharp archer.

"Fucking rakshasa ghosts, they can't beat me anymore." Baierko excitedly held up the Cossack's head.

······
"Name!"

"Ivan Voiloshnikov."

Ivan confessed honestly with his head downcast.

"identity!"

"The governor of Okhotsk Castle under the Yakutsk Governor's Mansion," he added, "I am a minor nobleman, can you give me the dignity of a nobleman?"

Sitting in the still well-preserved castle steward's mansion, the prime minister of the dynasty, the stove was still burning, he heard the words of the red-bearded Ivan and said disdainfully, "You are an invading robber, a captured defeated army, what qualifications do you have? What kind of aristocratic dignity?"

"Dear Chinese general, you can't treat me like those Cossacks or exiles, I'm a petty nobleman."

Wang Chaoxiang turned his head and asked, "Does anyone know who this little nobleman is and how amazing he is?"

Zhu Rongjie, who was wearing a cotton armor but with a red belt around his waist, said disdainfully, "Captain, don't listen to this old brat, what big and small nobles, he was at most a landlord in Tsarist Russia."

"Can landlords be called nobles?"

"That's why he said he was a minor nobleman."

Zhu Rongjie is a child of the royal family with a red belt. He came out of five clothes. He is a close branch of the Chu clan. He has received a good education. He was also a former imperial guard, and now in the development fleet, he also has a rank from the fifth rank.

He had stayed with the emperor for three years, so he knew something about various European countries, not to mention Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, England and France, Tsarist Russia also knew something.

"Tsarist Russia is in the east of Europe. Unlike the feudal aristocracy of Britain, France and Spain in Western Europe, the nobility of Tsarist Russia has never formed a unified national upper class, and they don't even have a unified title.

Generally speaking, the Tsarist Russian nobles included all military personnel. At that time, there were eight types of military personnel in Russia, boyars, imperial courtiers, Duma nobles, imperial ministers, court servants, nobles, residents, and boyar children.

The social origins of most service classes are mixed, consisting in part of titled princely families, old boyars and descendants of boyar sons, with some commoners also joining the service classes. "

Chao Chao shook his head, "I don't understand, what is this boyar?"

"Let me briefly talk about it, the Slavs established Kievan Rus in Eastern Europe a long time ago. In this Kievan Rus, apart from the ruling Rurik family, the upper class of Rus can be roughly divided into boyars and serving nobles. .

Boyar is like a doctor in our Zhou Dynasty, and serving nobles is like a scholar.

The 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 the lord at any time, but with the unification of Rus and the settlement of the princes, these boyars become subordinates of the princes , owned land, and paid taxes to the big bus, they became hereditary lords from then on.

At that time, the serving nobles were the managers of the Grand Duke's court affairs, and the personal servants of the Grand Duke were equivalent to the court officials of the Principality.

Later, when Mongolia went west, Kiev was conquered by Mongolia, and Kievan Rus also fell apart and became independent principalities. The land assigned to the descendants of Kievan Rus became the personal property of the new princes, and the unified Rus no longer existed. Boya Er's relationship with the serving nobles and princes also disappeared.

The boyar was in charge of the court and local management, and led the army in wartime, while the serving nobles assumed the main force of the army.

Later, the Principality of Moscow rose, and the princes of Ross had a new form of land distribution, Pomisti, which allocated a part of the land to the nobles for temporary possession as a reward for their service. If you want to switch to another prince or retire, the family has no males to serve after death, and the land will be taken back.

This makes it impossible for the nobles to change their lords casually like before. Changing the lord means that the land they conferred is gone, and when the princes confer the land, they also confer the peasants on the land to the nobles. , those peasants became their serfs. "

The Prime Minister of the Dynasty 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 soldiers of the Eight Banners of the Tartars?"

"Basically, the biggest difference between various titles and ranks of nobles is actually hereditary lords and conferred landowners. However, after the Ivan IV tyrant brought Tsarist Russia to destruction, after decades of chaotic wars, although it is stable now, its strength Tsarist Russia has lost a lot of land, and many boyar nobles have lost their territories or weakened. 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. It is estimated that some of his ancestors were military servicemen who granted the land, and then he inherited the military service and the land."

Tsarist Russian aristocrats do not have the ranks of dukes and uncles. Princes are not among the aristocracy. Boyar is considered a big aristocrat, and many of them have already fallen. However, Ivan, a minor aristocrat in military service, is at most equivalent to the hereditary military position of Ming Dynasty.

"After all, maybe it's a hereditary family. I thought it was a big fish. I pulled it down, chopped off my hands and feet, and then castrated it." Xiang Chao waved his hands with a look of disgust.

Ivan couldn't understand Daming's words, so he could only watch them talking nervously.

The translator Alkany translated the results of his treatment to Ivan with a mocking face.

Castration?

Ivan was flustered, frightened and frightened, "I am a little nobleman, you can't treat me like this."

"Cut it clean," Xiang Dynasty snorted coldly, and then looked at the other Raksha captives, "Those who will not be castrated first, let them repair the castle, and then let them cut trees and firewood, and prepare more for heating and stoves. Firewood, we're going to be here a long time,
After thawing, bring them back to Nuergan before eunuching! "

"Captain, there are Uriah Fort and Taoi Bay winter camps on the left and right sides of the coast, but there are not many people staying there for the winter. Do you want to sweep them away before the sea water freezes?"

"Well, split up and raid, make a quick decision, remember to use the cannons to attack before attacking."

The bay quickly divided into two fleets, each with six clipper ships, and left with a murderous look. The dynasty led the six ships to stay in Qudumei Harbor to deal with the aftermath.

Three days later, the two fleets returned one after another, one by one, and there were more and more ice floes on the sea.

Come back fully loaded.

They wiped out more than a hundred Tsarist Russians in the two camps, and took the captives and castles, the in-kind tax mink collected in the winter camp, and the furs hunted by hunters, as well as the furs they traded, and the dried fish they stored. , dried meat, and even firewood have all been brought back.

When the ship entered the port, the Prime Minister of the Dynasty planned to spend the winter at ease.
