2023 Unified Jurchen
The "Complete Map of the World" provided by Matteo Ricci once again proves the correctness of what Li Sicheng told Nuer Hachi in the first place. After the correction of Li Sicheng, Jin Zhenghao, Ma Youcai and Chen Taohua, the revised version of "Kunyu Wanguo Quantu" has been very close to the real world. When the five brothers and sisters of the Lao Jin family saw the complete world, Li Sicheng obviously saw that their eyes were glowing green.
Obviously, it is not enough to conquer the world with the millions of people on its own. After heated discussions between the Jianzhou Jin family, the Li family in Liaodong, the Chao Xian Jin family, and some other core personnel, several directions for increasing manpower were initially determined: In the name of "work for relief", taking advantage of the increase in disasters during the Xiaoice River period in the hinterland, increase the migration of people from the hinterland; cooperate with pirates along the coast of the interior to buy people from the south; continue to drive a wedge between the imperial court and Liaodong, and strive for the imperial court to assign Liaodong to Liaoning; Intensify efforts to poach people from the territory of Chao Xian, and use the temptation of the people of the Celestial Empire to recruit people who meet the requirements of Chao Xian (because it is necessary to guard against Japanese robbers, and no longer plunder the population of Chao Xian for the time being. ); After the beginning of spring, they began to colonize the Nenjiang River valley and at the same time plunder the population from Mongolia; speed up the pace of unifying the Jurchens and subdue the Jurchens of the East China Sea as soon as possible; Through the relationship of Matteo Ricci, we will strive for some high-quality talents from the West.
In addition, Li Sicheng and Kim Zhenghao strongly demanded from Lao Jin to increase investment in agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, and fishery infrastructure, scientific research and promotion, and increase grain output, so as to resettle the new manpower on the one hand, and improve their own ability to resist disasters on the other hand.
The Nenjiang Plain is located in the eastern part of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. It is a band-like piedmont inclined undulating plain extending from north to south along the eastern foot of the Great Khing'an Mountains, with a land area of 2,462 square kilometers and a topography inclined from northeast to southwest. There are many river valleys, and the river valley terraces are wide and flat. The ground is undulating and undulating, with little undulation. The Nenjiang Plain is rich in precipitation, with an annual precipitation of 450~530 mm, a large river network density, many tributaries, a wide river bed, and good water quality. Groundwater resources are also abundant and easy to exploit. The soil has high potential fertility and is the main grain producing area of Hulun Beier League and Xing'an League. The main crops are wheat, soybeans, rice, potatoes, etc. The plains are covered with lush vegetation and are good grazing lands.
The Nenkorqin tribe has been wiped out, and colonizing the Nenjiang Plain is not a problem, and the capital is determined to be in the city of Bedoune. Bodu City is located on the bank of the Songhua River, at the southern end of the Songnen Plain, and is located 200 meters southeast of the seat of the government of Bodu Township, 12.5 kilometers north of Ningjiang District, Songyuan City, in the central and western part of Jilin Province. This ancient city is the later royal city of Fuyu Kingdom, the Fuyu Mansion during the Bohai Kingdom, the Liao Dynasty called Longzhou, Huanglong Mansion, and the Jin Dynasty called the Five Kingdoms City, that is, the Huanglong Mansion where Yue Fei wanted to "smash the Yellow Dragon".
The development plan has been determined, but it will not be announced until after the New Year, so as not to keep everyone in mind and have a bad New Year.
Eating meat in large pieces, drinking wine in large bowls, weighing and dividing gold, the new crops of the harvest also let everyone taste fresh, the fresh women captured in the war were also shared, and the opera troupe invited from the mainland helped to entertain, and the New Year was very happy. Chen Taohua and the women of the two Jin families even tinkered with the first fashion show in this time and space.
Shulhaqi, who stayed in Hetuala, took a group of fierce generals, and under the pressure of Sister-in-law Jin, put on very revealing clothes and walked on the catwalk, which caused the female relatives to shout. The display of Hanfu and improved cheongsam by the ladies also made a group of old and young masters enthusiastic. Of course, I can only look at it, and if I want to do more, I can only go home and solve it myself.
Things were going according to plan, but it was too late. It was only the third day of the Lunar New Year, and news came from the northeast: many small tribes in the East China Sea couldn't get by, so they had to run out of the primeval forest and surrender to Liaoning, just begging for stuttering.
From their mouths, they knew that due to the continuous attacks of the Eastern Front of the Liaoning Army, all the Jurchen tribes in the East China Sea failed to collect enough grain for the winter. The big tribes attacked their own people and robbed the small tribes of their winter supplies. This year's winter is also much colder than before, and if the small tribe lacks food, clothing, food and food, if it does not want to disappear into the snowy forest silently, it can only surrender to Liaoning.
They also revealed that although the big tribe plundered the materials of the small tribes, their supplies were still insufficient, and if they did not take some special measures, they would not be able to survive the spring.
According to the customs of the Jurchens in the East China Sea, the so-called special measures are to let the old, weak, sick and disabled in the tribe enter the deep mountains and old forests by themselves, fend for themselves, and save living materials for sturdy men and women to continue the bloodline. Junjitang believes that in this case, the big tribe should be able to barely survive the winter. However, as soon as spring begins, it is necessary to replenish grain immediately, otherwise it will be the most difficult time for grain because of the "spring famine" (referring to the famine that occurs when the countryside is not green and yellow in the spring, and the harvest of last autumn has almost been eaten, and this year's summer grain is planted. "Starve to death, and the only way to replenish supplies is to plunder. Therefore, it is judged that the Jurchens of the East China Sea will inevitably fight back violently after the beginning of spring in order to take away the necessary materials to survive.
As a result, the military machine hall devised a strategy of waiting for the rabbit, concentrating the personnel and materials on the east side of the city in a few fortified cities, and ambushing troops near the castles, and launching a counterattack after the attacking savages were exhausted. Without increasing your own casualties, capture them alive as much as possible, and then take the prisoners to coerce the East China Sea savages into surrendering.
At the same time, the military machine hall judged that the other departments of Horqin, after the beginning of spring, would soon know that something had happened to Nen Horqin, and they would entangle the troops and launch an attack in about one month. The strategy formulated for the Horqin troops was also "defensive counterattack", and the troops on their side retreated to the edge of the Great Khing'an Mountains to build a defensive line, and at the same time sent cavalry to attack the rear of the attacking Horqin tribe, and launched a fierce counterattack when the attacker was exhausted. After repelling the other party, they began to build a city and immigrants in the Nenjiang Plain.
In fact, the Liaoning army has already laid another trap. As I said before, after the Liaoning army captured the walled city, it killed everyone in the walled city and piled it up into a Jingguan; In addition, at the time of the final retreat, all the remaining cattle and sheep for grain were also abandoned. Jingguan and abandoned cattle and sheep are piled up near the water source, and after the beginning of spring, the corpses decompose, causing the plague.
Biological*chemical*weapon* is a two-sided sword, and if you don't use it well, you will hurt yourself. The Military Aircraft Hall is recruiting a large number of medical personnel, and Li Shizhen and Master Li will conduct epidemic prevention training to deal with possible plagues.
The front line of Yiju and Tieling Prefecture should also continue to build defense lines and make good preparations for war.
There are many things to do, and as soon as the seventh day of the lunar month is over, the whole Liaoning will boil and enter a state of imminent war.
Still in February, when the wind and snow had subsided a little, the hungry wild people of the East China Sea rushed out of the forest. There's no way, even the rats have been eaten, and if you don't get something to eat, the whole family will be doomed. The savages of the East China Sea rushed into the villages one by one without difficulty, and were disappointed again and again, these villages were so clean that all the rats ran out.
Disappointed to the point of despair, the savages rushed to the fortified city, hoping to concentrate their forces and break down several cities and find something to eat. After a series of attacks, they finally despaired, leaving a large number of corpses of their own under the walls. When they were exhausted, the ambushed Liaoning army appeared.
Although the warriors still existed, when the desire to survive was extremely strong, and the other party was still persuaded to surrender with food, the savages finally chose to surrender, and took the Liaoning army to their own villages, so that the people who stayed at home came out to surrender.
The entire campaign took less than a month, and the three Jurchen divisions in the East China Sea: the Wuji Division, the Varkha Division, and the Kurkha Division, all surrendered. After four years, Nuer Hachi finally unified the Jurchens. At this time, the Horqin Department in the west had not yet reacted.
