Chapter 454, from Xi Ri Gou Lige to Huang Lige
I have to say that after Huang Taiji's death, although Dai Shan and Dolgon were not comparable to Huang Taiji in all aspects, they still had the qualities of excellent tribal leaders. [No pop-ups]
Dorgon's decision was very decisive. After discovering the fact that the Houjin Jurchen was extremely vulnerable in front of the revival army, he immediately abandoned the Shenyang area, which was the place where the Aixinjue Luo clan arose, and immediately fled to the Mongolian steppe with the few remaining supplies and all the population under his command.
In order to ensure the safety of his evacuation operation, he also planned to break through the Dalinghe Fort that might pose a threat to his migration operation, and the Zu Dashou tribe fled in despair. After this, he immediately made peace with a large group of men and horses, and moved in the direction of Daning with more than 70,000 Jurchens and Mongols. His final destination was the Khalkha Mongol garrison, which was subjugated to the Later Jin regime.
And after Dolgon withdrew from the Shenyang area with his men, Dai Shan's decision was not at all more hesitant than Dolgon. After collecting all the supplies and people in Shenyang, he set a fire in Shenyang. After that, he decisively took all the people who had the ability to move (except for the Jurchens and Mongols, he did not give up the Han slaves), a total of 120,000 people, and retreated to the Anle Prefecture area north of Tielingwei.
His final destination was the Nuer Gandusi area, which had long been annexed and assimilated, and had become the hometown of the Haixi Jurchens, who had become members of the Eight Banners.
Therefore, when the troops sent by the Baath Party's Liaonan base area arrived outside the city of Shenyang, they saw the abandoned city of Shenyang, which had been burned to ruins by the fire.
However, this does not mean that only the people in the southern Liaonan base area under the rule of the Baath Party, which are currently less than 300,000 people, are left in the entire eastern Liaoning region. Whether it is Dolgon or Daishan, these people who have been accustomed to enjoying the fruits of agricultural civilization do not fully realize the huge gap and difficulties from the degradation of agricultural civilization to the nomadic fishing and hunting civilization.
Although due to the great influence of the Mongols, they drove a large number of cattle, sheep and livestock as food during the migration, but the limited cattle, sheep and livestock could not meet the supply needs of tens of thousands of people. Under these circumstances, both ordinary Jurchens who did not receive special treatment, as well as Mongol and Han Chinese slaves who were oppressed and exploited, began to flee in large numbers in the process of migration.
The problem of fleeing from the desert is here, even if Dolgon watched his original population of 70,000 or 80,000 people shrink to 40,000 day by day, but in order to ensure his movement speed, in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of his core troops, he simply could not spare manpower to hunt down the escapees.
The situation faced by Dai Shan is the same. Among his huge team of more than 100,000 people, those who can be given priority to supply and care for are all Jurchen nobles. During the migration, the life of the low-level Jurchens, Mongols, and Han Chinese slaves was a hundred times worse than usual.
In this way, whether it is the low-level Jurchens, Mongols or Han Chinese, they will naturally flee from the team of Daishan and run outside to fend for themselves. Except for a small number of wild and untamed "Shengjurchens" who fled directly into the deep mountains and old forests, those Jurchens, Mongols, and Han slaves who were accustomed to a stable agricultural society fled directly back to the Shenyang area, preparing to join the Fuxing Army.
They all knew that the Baath Party had no hostility towards ordinary Jurchens and Mongols. Many of them knew that the Ba'ath Army had a unit called the New Ba'ath Army under its command. In this army, the surrendered Jurchens and Mongols will be resettled, get a job, and even change their identities to directly serve the Baath Army.
Therefore, when Dolgon led a team of more than 30,000 people to arrive at the Khalkha garrison, and when the Liaonan Revival Army arrived outside Shenyang, there were about 20,000 Jurchen, Mongol and Han slave deserters scattered around the abandoned city of Shenyang, eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the Revival Army.
It's not just that they complain in their hearts that the Renaissance Army is too late. The mixed brigade of the Liaoning South Military Region of the Baath Party, which carried out this mission, was also dissatisfied with the fact that the military region was so slow in making a decision.
When it was clear that a beautiful pursuit battle could be fought, more than 100,000 enemies ran to the north to catch up with them, and this situation made the commanders and fighters at all levels of the Southern Liaoning Military Region deeply depressed. But all actions are commanded by them, and this is what they must insist on. Even if we cannot understand the decision of the military region, only one-third of the newly formed units are combat units, and the remaining two-thirds of the troops are mixed brigades of production and construction troops.
More than 26,000 Jurchen, Mongol, and Han deserters were soon taken over by the Baath Army.
The appearance of these people actually surprised the mixed brigade. You must know that according to the construction plan issued by the central government, the establishment of a new city on the edge of the Hunhe River requires a large number of basic labor support. The surrender of 26,000 people of all ethnic groups can be described as a timely rain.
The name Šižori may sound nice, but the meaning of this Mongolian name is rather vulgar. In Mongolian, Sirigolig means yellow dog cub.
was called a yellow dog cub, and Xi Rigou Lige didn't care much about this problem. As a former slave of other Mongol tribes, and then taken away by the Jurchens and once again enslaved, Xi Rigou Lige had little special concern for his own dignity. He was more concerned with the issue of survival. How to survive under the master's restraint and the steward's beating and scolding, this is the important question that occupies all the space in Xi Rigoulige's head.
At the age of twelve, he became a slave to other tribes because of tribal warfare. After the masters of his new tribe surrendered to the Houjin, he became a Mongol herdsman under the rule of the Houjin. After he was plundered to Shenyang City, he has been working as a groom in the home of a Jurchen nobleman who specializes in taking care of horses.
As an inferior person who does everything to feed himself, Xi Rigoulig, who migrated north with the large army led by Dai Shan, clearly realized that if he did not escape, then he would have no status in the team at all, and his situation in the large army would become worse and worse.
Finally, during a stop, he stole a bag of horse feed as dry food and fled the army on a horse that he was responsible for taking care of.
Xi Rigoulige, who has been raising horses in the mansions of nobles in Shenyang City, certainly doesn't know what the Baath Party is all about. However, he was lucky, and on the way out, he met many people who took the opportunity to escape like him.
One of the Han slaves, after sharing with him the horse material he had stolen, told him that he would survive as long as he ran to the Fuxing Army. The revival army specializes in dealing with noble masters, but it will not embarrass the poor, and will also arrange a camp for those who have fled to eat and wear warm clothes.
Being able to eat well may not be a big deal for modern people. But for the ancient people, especially the ancient people in the last days, it was a complete luxury. Just as it is quite unusual in modern society to be so poor that you can't eat enough to eat, in ancient agricultural societies, it is very rare to be rich enough to eat and suffer from many diseases of wealth because you can't control your appetite.
The young Mongolian herdsman did not have any ideals in life. Being able to eat enough was enough to dispel any of his concerns.
In this way, after Xi Rigou Lige and his companions fled back to the Shenyang area, they waited for the arrival of the revival army with the stars and the moon.
In accordance with the Baath Party's policy of the big family of the Chinese nation. Regardless of whether the Mongolian name of Xiri Golige is good or not, and whether the meaning expressed is auspicious or not, anyway, under the rule of the Baath Party, it will be replaced with a three-character Chinese character name, and there is only this one Chinese character name. It is for this reason that after becoming a temporary laborer for the Renaissance Army, he received a new name for Huang Lige.
He didn't care what his name was. Whether it's called Huang Lige, Yellow Dog Leftover, or Dog Cub, no matter what his name is, whether he can eat enough and survive is his only focus.
However, after becoming a laborer in the Renaissance Army, he quickly remembered his name, Huang Lige, and soon used it as his only name. In less than three days, Huang Lige actually learned to write his name with a pencil.
This is not to say that the political cadres of the Baath Army really have the brainwashing power of Red Alert Liyuri. This is simply because, under the rule of the Renaissance Army, I lived a rigorous and strict organizational life, and I couldn't remember my name and couldn't quickly report my name. And if you can't quickly report your name, you will have to be punished.
The matter of being attacked by G is nothing to Huang Lige. The point is, once you give your name wrong, you will be starved. And for Huang Lige, the matter of starving is simply no punishment more terrible.
Huang Lige's performance is actually a mental illness. Because the hunger you encountered when you were growing up was so much and too common. So when Huang Lige became a worker of the Baath Party and could eat as much as he wanted, Huang Lige became more persistent in eating.
If you don't remember your name, you can add a salted egg to each meal, you can write your own name, you can add a lunch R canned reward at dinner, with Huang Lige's intelligence level, write your name correctly for such a difficult thing, how can he easily do it?
It is precisely because of the pursuit of salted eggs and lunch R that Huang Lige is serious about learning.
Unlike those Han Chinese slave-born laborers, Huang Lige, a Mongolian, felt that life in the labor camp was both happy and hard.
When I say happiness, I can eat enough for three meals a day. Two multigrain steamed buns, a large bowl of polenta, plus unlimited steamed potatoes. There is also a large bowl of bone broth boiled vegetables (J duck skeleton plus vegetables) for each meal. Huang Lige has lived for more than ten or twenty years no matter what he says (he can't figure out how many years), and this is the first time he has lived such a day.
What's more, Huang Lige no longer needs to sleep with the animals in the dirty and smelly livestock shed. He wore clean and tidy labor clothes and sturdy canvas shoes every day in the labor camp, took a hot bath every day, and slept every day in a clean and warm room with a bed with a thick bedding. This made Huang Lige not know how happy he was.
But on the other hand, unlike those Han Chinese who did not have much difficulty in Chinese and those Jurchens who used Chinese regularly, as a Mongolian, Huang Lige had little problem understanding Chinese, but he was completely incapable of speaking and writing Chinese.
Because of the problem of usage habits, Huang Lige's learning progress was very backward in the night school class every night in the labor camp. Even with such a good tool as Hanyu Pinyin, and even with the hand-in-hand teaching of the soldiers of the Renaissance Army, Huang Lige's progress in cultural learning is still very slow.
Because the progress of learning is directly linked to the treatment of life, Huang Lige can't mention how anxious he is. Fortunately, among Huang Lige's roommates, there is a labor roommate who is a Han slave with a little cultural foundation, and he is the friend who used to share horse material with Huang Lige on the road. With his help, Huang Lige's grades barely kept up.
Because the railway from Haizhou to Shenyang has not yet started, and because the highway from Haizhou to Shenyang has only been built to the Anshan area, and after the highway is repaired to Anshan, the southern Liaoning base area began to invest a lot of energy in the construction of the Anshan Iron and Steel Plant. In the near future, the southern Liaoning base area, which has already focused its main efforts on the construction of key projects at the Anshan Iron and Steel Plant, is really unable to spare special manpower and material resources to quickly open a standard highway from Haizhou to Shenyang.
In this case, a lot of construction work in the Shenyang area that could have been carried out using machinery had to be turned into purely manual work.
For example, in the Shenyang area, where road construction and house construction are carried out by themselves, the work that could have been carried out with road rollers and concrete mixers is now done by hand. For example, a lot of the excavation work of municipal construction can be carried out by machinery, and now it is also laborers digging with shovels.
After the cadres of the Shenyang Military Management Committee really realized the huge efficiency gap between manpower and machinery, they were sincerely grateful to those construction machinery that they had become familiar with and were used to and had some aesthetic fatigue.
