In the mid-to-late 6th century AD, Emperor Yang of Sui ordered Zhu Kuan, a cavalry captain, to go to sea to visit overseas exotic customs. Today, when I traveled from Amami Oshima Island in the north to Yonaguni Island in the south (170 kilometers southwest of present-day Taugua), I saw a pearl-like island floating in the sea. When the Tang Dynasty compiled the Book of Sui, in order to avoid the emperor's dragon, the place was renamed Liuqiu. In the period of Zhu Yuanzhang, the beautiful name of the place was Ryukyu, which means glazed jade and pearl balls, and its magnificent and wonderful scenery can be seen.

The Ryukyu Kingdom originally referred to the three countries of Shannan (also known as Nanshan), Nakayama, and Shanbei, which were established in the Ryukyu Islands in history, and later referred to the unified Ryukyu Kingdom (1429-1879).

The Ryukyu Kingdom was located between the Chinese province of Treasure Island and the island country, and it once paid tribute to the Ming and Qing dynasties of China and the Satsuma Domain and the Edo Shogunate of the island nation. The Ryukyu Kingdom was repeatedly invaded by island nations, and in 1609, the Satsuma Domain invaded and controlled the northern part of the Ryukyu Kingdom for a period of time, at which time the Ryukyu Kingdom was still paying tribute to China.

Due to its special geographical location, the Ryukyu Kingdom is known as a transit point for trade in Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia, and its trade is well developed, and it is known as the "Tsuryo of the World".

The political structure of the Ryukyus is divided into three levels: the king and the royal family, the minister of state, and the village community. Under the king is the royal family, which is divided into five official titles: princess, prince, county lord, vassal bin (a lower title for a concubine), and regent (when the king dies and the prince has not been officially appointed by the central government of ancient China).

The Minister of State is the head of administration of a country, and the Minister of State is appointed by the king. Throughout the history of the Ryukyus, many people who moved from China held this position. In addition to the chiefs and chieftains of the "Zhai Society" on each island, the officials under the control of the state minister also have jurisdiction over the official positions in the state institutions, including the "tributary envoys", "doctor officials", "chief historians" and "interpreters" who act as interpreters, "general affairs" and "general managers" in charge of maritime affairs, and officials such as "purple turban officials", "law secretaries", and "tributes" who are in charge of internal affairs. It should be noted that "long history" and "long historian" are not the same, long history and minister of state are high-ranking officials of the state, while long historians are officials who are specifically responsible for the work of so-and-so.

The Shosha (緷司) is the local administrative unit of the Ryukyus, and it is also an official position inherent in each island. The chiefs or chieftains of these shrines were hereditary, and they were also large nobles and local power in the Ryukyus, and they participated in coups in the Ryukyus. Other official positions include trade management, tax collection officials, etc.

The official positions of the Ryukyu Kingdom are divided into nine grades. Brother Wang, Uncle Wang, and the Prime Minister are all called "the prince of a certain place".

Under the prince were the divisions of the various regions, and they handed over the military power in their hands to the king, and they gathered in Shuri, and controlled their domains remotely. According to the division, he is then the uncle of the king, the law department, and the purple scarf official, called "a local pro-party".

The yellow hat official below the third grade is called "a certain place is on the clouds", and those who have no territory are called "the son of a certain mile is on the clouds" and "a certain Zhudeng is on the clouds". From the sixth grade to the seventh grade, it is "a certain pro-cloud". The official name of the eight-pins red riding hood is "the son of a certain mile" or "the lord of a certain land". The nine products are called "Zhudengzhi", and those who do not enter the stream are called a certain son.

On March 30, 1879, the island nation annexed the Ryukyu Dynasty, and the Ryukyu Kingdom was destroyed. Most of the country was transferred to Okinawa Prefecture, and the northern islands were incorporated into Kagoshima Prefecture.

is such a country that has been a vassal country of China for generations, and it was annexed by an island country, and the devils of the past generations have stabbed China in the ribs. In a small country that has been wiped out, almost all the indigenous people in it have been slaughtered. These things are not less done by island countries.

Once, seeing the history of this country on the Internet, Wushan was always full of blood, for the decline and retreat of the Qing government.

If you want to talk about the level of Wushan, it is definitely not enough to mix this matter. Jacky Cao saw his eager look, and didn't know that this kid wanted to intervene here again, so he took him with a smile.

Jacky Cao is very steady, and he will definitely report to Jingshi as soon as possible. However, the previous work still has to be done by all the people in Taiwan. In addition to Wushan, the giants of the First Army and Xiao Jun were also invited. Anyway, on the treasure island at this time, no one dares to come to brush the tiger's whiskers.

Shan Liu was a little flattered, and originally thought that he would take over his head first and let his father come to see him again. Unexpectedly, these soldiers on the powerful side have been degraded and noble, and they have gone mightily.

In general, it is necessary to know exactly whether the whole thing is another conspiracy planned by the cunning plaster nation.

The antique jade seal was taken out, and the mainland edicts of the past dynasties also brought a few things. After the last, Jacky Cao was still very cautious and invited a respected cultural relics appraisal expert here on Taiwan Island to confirm that these are precious historical relics.

Since it is true, how can Jacky Cao let an old man who is almost seventy years old travel a long distance to see him?

There is no traffic here, and it took nearly ten miles of mountain roads to arrive.

Seeing this quiet village, Wushan suddenly thought of Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Spring: after walking dozens of steps, he suddenly became enlightened. The land is flat, the houses are like that, and there are good fields and beautiful ponds and mulberry bamboos. Qianmo traffic, chickens and dogs smell each other. Among them, the men and women are dressed like outsiders. Yellow hair hangs down and is happy.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but laugh. Liu Taimeng, who was walking next to him, was a little surprised: "What the hell do you kid think?" ”

"Hey, Uncle Liu, are you a little bloody?" Wu Shan couldn't help but feel aggrieved: "Could it be that in your mind, I am such an obscene image?" ”

This time, Chief of Staff Rong Fusheng did not come. People who are nearly seventy years old and don't want to run around. Besides, someone has to be there to be on duty in the barracks, right?

Liu Taimeng shook his head with a smile, turned around and asked the two haircuts beside him: "Do you think my kid is right?" ”

Chen Haosu was serious: "It's very similar!" ”

Even Luo Dongyang, who usually likes to disagree with Liu Taimeng, seemed to be righteous and awe-inspiring: "It was originally!" ”

"Commander!" Wushan couldn't resist: "Look, the senior officials of the first army bully their subordinates, and you don't care." ”

Jacky Cao, who found his biological father, looks much more cheerful than in the past. Although he is now inextricably linked with the veterans of the Beijing Division, after all, he did not grow up with these second generations of the army since he was a child. A lot of the time, it's still at the level of business. He also envied that this kid from Wushan could get along with these people, and he was happy when he heard it.

While speaking, Shan Liu had already led everyone to the front of an antique manor. Shan Guo ran home in advance when everyone was walking on the mountain road. The old man Shan Fu had already taken the whole family to greet him at the gate of Zhuangzi.

This manor, in the feeling of Wushan, should have a strong Ming and Qing dynasty color.

The whole manor building structure is rigorous, fastened and solid, majestic and solemn. In front of the door, there are two mighty stone lions, which look very old, and there are traces of weathering in many places. It can be seen that the single family should be maintaining and repairing at any time. The two large doors have been opened, and there is a small side door next to them. The cornices are slightly upturned, and a touch of red can still be faintly seen.

Everyone was polite, and the guests and hosts sat down.

"Unexpectedly, the army of the upper kingdom easily took this enclave." Shan Fu is a tea lover, looking at his eyes staring at the tea bowl, meticulous: "Once upon a time, we thought that there was no hope for the restoration of the Ryukyus. At the beginning, Mr. Jiang didn't say half a good word for us in the Ryukyus, otherwise, he would have been restored after World War II, so what would it be like today? ”

These words are inverted, they must be in vain, and a few soldiers sounded, and their teeth were sore.

"Old man," Wu Shan thought thoughtfully: "If you guess correctly, your original surname is not Shan but Shang!" ”

"What this gentleman said is very right, we are the royal family of the Ryukyus, and our natural surname is Shang." The old man sighed: "If it weren't for the people of the island country pressing forward step by step, and later Mr. Jiang also turned a blind eye and eyebrow-to-eye with the people of the island country, why would we have been incognito until now?" "It seems that the Shang family has a deep grudge against Lao Jiang. It's not surprising that if you win the war, why don't you take the opportunity to claim back your land?

In April 1945, when the government of the island country learned that it had to accept the Cairo Declaration and the Potsdam Proclamation to return all the occupied territories, it went so far as to issue the so-called "jade crushing order" on the grounds that it was "worried that the Ryunu would lead the Chinese to liquidate the island country", and demanded that the local garrison kill all the Ryukyuan people.

According to incomplete statistics, before the U.S. military seized the Ryukyus, the devils slaughtered more than 260,000 Ryukyu people, second only to the Nanjing Massacre in terms of the scale of the massacre. Pure Ryukyuan people no longer exist, after World War II the island countries have emigrated to the Ryukyu many times, and more than 80% of the current so-called Ryukyu islanders are descendants of immigrants from the island countries before and after the First Sino-Japanese Naval War. Although they claim to be indigenous to the Ryukyus, most of them are of island origin.

Old man Shang Fu, when it came to this history, everyone present wept one after another. Those are my Chinese compatriots, their ancestors, from China. turned the barren land into a livable island, unexpectedly, the most unexpectedly gave it to the devil in vain.

"Old man," Wu Shan's face became serious, "As far as I know, when the islanders forcibly occupied Ryukyu, they coerced the last Ryukyu king, Shotai and his son Shonori, to Tokyo and made Ryukyu Okinawa Prefecture. In other words, all the things owned by the Ryukyu countries have long been looted by the island countries. Although, you have all the antiquities here, how do you explain the origin of these things? ”

Shang Fu closed his eyes and sighed: "Since the Qing army entered the customs, my Ryukyu royal family has judged that this is a wolf-like nation. They even slaughtered the Han people, not to mention us overseas remnants? Therefore, within the royal family, the secret is divided into the hidden and the explicit. All the authentic works are kept by the hidden department, and the visible part is only a copy. ”

After a long time, Cao Xueyou and other soldiers were already restless.

Old man Shangfu, maybe these words, since the day he was born, have been held in his heart, and he spit it out quickly.

"I think my ancestor of the Shang family is indeed far-sighted." Old Man Shang took a sip of tea, still immersed in his memories: "They told the younger generations that one day, the rivers and mountains of my Han dynasty will be in charge of the Han people." In the testament of the ancestors, I told that if one day, the plaster nation will make me ruin the country, let us wait for the opportunity and avenge the heavenly kingdom. ”

After speaking, Shang Fu, who is in his sixties, is already in tears.

Not to mention the history of the Ryukyus, the history of the Chinese nation is a history of constant warfare between the Han nation and foreign invaders. Fortunately, the backbone of the descendants of Yan and Huang is straight, and maybe one day, they will be broken by someone, and their heads will always be held high. When the bones are long, the spine is still straight and straight.

Then, Yan Liu took everyone to visit the "arsenal" in the cave behind. Everyone couldn't help but secretly sigh, I'm afraid that the whole mountain has been hollowed out. The earth's crust in this area is not stable, and earthquakes occur from time to time. How did the Shang family survive? In many places, it is clear that the earthquake has damaged it.

After asking Yan Liu, I learned that the Shang family had been cleaning up the cave again after generation after the cave was damaged.

The old man Shang Fu also came in.

The cold weapons are all rusty. It doesn't seem like it's been long. When I went inside, I found that those weapons could only see the original form, and the oxidation was serious, and it was estimated that even the chickens could not be killed.

Seeing this, Wushan couldn't help laughing. Does the Shang family think that with these weapons, which are not even as good as burning sticks, they will fight the devils and regain their former homeland?

These army bigwigs are not archaeologists. When I saw the weapon, it should be similar to the feeling of Wushan, everyone seemed to want to laugh but was embarrassed to laugh.

In the historical classics, Wushan may have a say. But as a disposition of this royal family, it is not something that a small major can interfere with.

"Old man," seeing the food served on the table, Cao Jianwen asked worriedly, "I don't know what you hope to achieve by contacting us." ”

Looking at his stubbornness, if he doesn't agree with a word, he will leave without eating.

Wushan and others also kept an eye on this Ryukyu remnant.
