In the second half of the ninth day of the ninth month of the twelfth year of Shunzhi, or the early morning of the tenth day of the ninth month. Beijing, Forbidden City, Weiyu Palace.

The Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, eighteen-year-old Fulin, who was in good spirits and full of energy, had already given up his throne and sat on an ordinary palace bench in the hall, tasting the ginseng soup served by Wu Liangfu, it was like beating chicken blood, and the battle index remained explosive!

Around him, there were fifty-four-year-old Tang Ruowang, forty-year-old Ming Andali, fifty-year-old Kadahun, and three-year-old Xuan Ye, all of whom were also supplementing their own special tonic decoctions. Everyone is secretly ready to fight all night!

"Tomafa, you don't know yet, I'm going to use the Rakshasa with soldiers!"

Although Fu Lin was full of energy, he was really worried about John Tang, who was old and his health was declining, so he didn't talk politely nonsense, but went straight to the point.

"Your Majesty! The old minister is for the Qing Dynasty and the emperor, and he will never give up! ”

John Tang didn't seem to be too surprised, but behaved more sincerely.

I am not surprised, but it is because after the battle of Humar, along with hundreds of Rakshasas descending into Beijing, there were still a few Russian artillery. The imperial court attached great importance to this, and asked Tang Ruowang, who was proficient in firearms, to imitate it quickly, and from then on, the "psychic" Tang Ruowang seemed to have been ordered by the Lord, speculating that the Qing court was going to use force on the northern land.

Not only was he not surprised, but John Tang felt more personally at this time that he was moved, a kind of unconditional trust: military affairs, since ancient times, have been the secret affairs of the country, and they are easy to accept. And as a Western priest, he was frankly told by the current emperor and trusted. Nature is extraordinary.

"Thommarfa, I have no doubt about your loyalty. It's not too early, and I'll just ask you one thing. Fulin valued John Tong's talents and insight more than anything else, and was prepared to put them to good use.

"The emperor only asks questions, and the old minister swears to God: I must know everything and say everything!" At this time, Tang Ruowang had roughly guessed what the young emperor wanted to know.

"Good! Tomafar, I want to know ......"

Hongyi, who was on the side, had already known the emperor's next question like John Tang at this time: Didn't he just ask how the Rakshasa troops were? What are the odds of winning this battle...... Do you have a pre-site consultation like this? Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent will not be defeated in a hundred battles! So, Hongyi was ready to knock on the side, once Tang Ruowang had any unexpected mistakes. Set things right right immediately. Tell the young "reborn father" - Lao Maozi is really a third-rate and backward country in Europe at this time! Kill him without discussion!

"I want to know...... How did these many Rakshasas come to my Qing Dynasty? Fu Lin paused, and then said that he was most concerned about the Rakshasa Kingdom at the moment!

Big surprise! Absolutely unexpected! Hongyi and Tang Ruowang were both a little stunned for a while-this change of thinking. It's a bit sudden! The first half of the sentence says: "I'm ready to be ruthless!" ”。 And roll up the sleeves. was ready to fight, but unexpectedly, he turned to the helper beside him in the second half of the sentence and asked very solemnly, "Where did this guy come from?" "What did you do earlier?

I didn't expect it though. But after thinking about it for a while, Hongyi still decided to speak highly of Fulin's question - this question asks a fundamental question: How did you drive straight into the land of Longxing in the Qing Dynasty? Why haven't I heard of a Rakshasa country for hundreds or thousands of years ago? You can't be blown down from the sky by a gust of wind for thousands of miles to the Sakhalian Ullah [Heilongjiang] valley, right?

It's no wonder that Fulin asked this question, and solemnly:

After the establishment of the Jin Dynasty, the beginning of the beating of Nu ~ Erhachi, even with Huang Taiji, was going all out to deal with the central power of the Ming Dynasty, and gradually stopped the pace of the original fierce annexation of many tribes in the Trans-Khing'an Mountains and the Siberian Far East. With the unification of Manchuria during the Tiancong period, after clarifying the distinction between "New Manchuria" and "Buddha Manchuria" and unifying the various departments of Manchuria, the territory of the Qing State before entering the customs was demarcated from the Beihai [1] [Lake Baikal] in the west to Sakhalin Island in the east.

At that time, the government of the Ming Dynasty was also in the 48th year of Shenzong Wanli (1618), and only through the Russian Far East government Ivan . The Petrin mission had only made contact with this distant European country for the first time, but it did not attract enough attention from the Ming Dynasty. At that time, Myojinzong wrote in his letter to Russia: "You are a big country, and China is not small", obviously not showing weakness to Russia, but also expressing his willingness to exchange between the two countries on an equal footing. In fact, at that time, Russia had already penetrated the hinterland of central Siberia and firmly established a string of "leapfrogging" eastward advance bases! It's a pity that the Ming Dynasty can only acquiesce to this, and it is no longer able to look north. [Hongyi's words: What big country? We should clearly tell them that the so-called "Far East Siberian region" you are talking about was actually under our administration as early as the Han Dynasty at the latest! Especially when it came to the Tang Dynasty in China, it was already the territory of the Xianbei people in our country, and it was subordinate to the Hanhai Governor's Mansion and the Jiankun Governor's Mansion! Excluding this part, you are a small second-rate country at best in that little territory in Europe! 】

Why is there the question, "Rakshasa, where are you from?" It's not because today, or yesterday morning, when I talked about Yaksa with Fu Lin, I deliberately asked: "How did these Rakshasas suddenly appear in our land of Longxing outside the Guanguan within this or twenty years?" [See Chapter 133 of this book, "Return Me to Yaxa"]

After being busy from morning to night on the ninth day of the ninth month of September, Fulin still remembers this question, which shows that our young Manchurian emperor is still keen and studious, tracing back to the source! For what the Qing Dynasty doesn't know now, this genius, who already has some "Eastern and Western mixed perspectives", has a natural urge to seek a solution! A good thing, a great thing! It depends on how John Tang answers, it's hard to say that there are still reserve talents in international politics waiting for him-Hongyi secretly prepared a draft.

"Your Majesty, as far as your ministers know, the Pirakshasa Kingdom originated from a small village called Moscow under the Mongol Golden Horde. Later, when Mongolia declined, he was able to establish a state and become a small Muscovy. On the day of this incident, when the Rakshasa presented a prisoner under Tiananmen Square, the second son of the emperor had also declared...... "John Tang may not have been prepared for a while. I had to take out Hongyi's rhetoric to resist it for a while, and secretly hurried to search for the historical knowledge of the Rakshasa Kingdom in his rich intellectual mind.

"Well, I've heard Xuan Ye say it. But why did they suddenly run to the door of my Qing Dynasty's house, far away in your hometown of Tessie, oh, the Europa that you and I talked about, and whose lord was only a small first-class prince, and even ran to the door of my Qing Dynasty in one night, and even entered the house and acted recklessly? ”

The studious Fulin was obviously dissatisfied with the "old" knowledge that John Tang had given him. Good words and good words. Let John Tong give some powerful information!

"Your Majesty, the Rakshasa entered the hinterland of my Great Qing Dynasty, although it was not an overnight effort, but it also took much time!" Finally. Tang Ruowang, a "general talent in literature, history, philosophy, mathematics, physics and chemistry" who sorted out the "history courseware". The history of Russia's aggression in the Far East began to be elaborated.

The so-called "Siberia" in the Rakshasa population. Originally, it refers to the east of the Ural Mountains, to the Pacific coast, and to the south of the Mongolian steppe. A vast area bordered by the Arctic Ocean to the north. The meaning of the word "Siberia" has different opinions even in the academic circles of the 21st century, and some foreign scholars believe that it means "congdense" in Mongolian; It is also said to be a transliteration of the Russian word for "north", which refers to North Asia; Some say what "shijie center" means, and so on, most of these statements are inferred from the perspective of phonetics, which is unfounded, and some are even far-fetched and not credible.

However, Hongyi most agrees with the views of the two experts in China, Bao Erhan and Feng Jiasheng. These two gentlemen researched and used many historical sources, and then concluded that the word "Siberia" is a transliteration of the word "Xianbei". The Xianbei are an ethnic minority living in northern Xinjiang in ancient China, and they used to live in the middle reaches of the Irtysh River and the Ob River to the west. The two gentlemen further verified that "Xianbei" is also a kind of "Rui beast name", quite Mongolian "貊", that is, "five-clawed tiger", Xianbei people worship this Rui beast the most, and carved it on the metal belt hook, in order to distinguish it from the people of other tribes. This view is quite insightful, and Hongyi has always believed that it is the most reliable, and then deduces that the Russian and Western names should be derived from this name.

It's just that the seventeenth-century missionary John Tang could not have this kind of insight at all, so he didn't dwell on this word, but started from the origin of the Rakshasa Kingdom.

In the mouth of John Tong, Hongyi heard: the Moscow state did not border with Far Eastern Siberia at the beginning, and did not even understand the situation there. The first appearance of the term "Siberia" in Russian historical texts was in 1407, and at that time the term was limited to the middle reaches of the Ob River, not a geographical concept as we know it today.

Tang Lao Marfa even further pointed out that in fact, as early as thousands of years ago, dozens of ethnic groups of all sizes lived and multiplied on the land of Siberia and created civilization, and they were the aborigines and masters here! Moreover, many of these ethnic groups are described in detail in China's vast historical books, have close contacts with the people of all ethnic groups in the interior of China, and a considerable number of indigenous people have always accepted the jurisdiction and governance of the central dynasty of China, which can be said to be an inevitable part of China.

On the side, Hongyi listened with great interest to the authoritative interpretation of the history of Russian expansion in the mainstream of 17th-century Europe, and compared his modern views in the 21st century, he found that there was almost no difference between the two! It seems that the history of the Far East, which is covered with blood, is well known and has always been public!

"A limerick poem. Look at the first word of each sentence》

Looking at recent history, I am disappointed

I was saying that there was an opportunity back then

Outside the map, it has been sharpened

It's hard to know what you're going to do

I got up and wore Rokkazi

Point out the world's pain and joy

China's brilliant ten thousand idiots

The Wenwu Dynasty was the only Qing Dynasty

[1] Regarding the evolution of the name of Lake Baikal in ancient China, it is very clear that "Siberia has been China's inherent territory since ancient times" - Baikal was called "Beihai" in the Han Dynasty, and "Xiaohai" in the Tang Dynasty, that is, it was recognized that Baikal was not a northern ocean, but a lake surrounded by land, hence the name Xiaohai. According to the New Tang Dynasty Book. The Uighur Biography records that Dubo is bordered by the small sea (Lake Baikal) in the north, the Hanhai (Lake Baikal) in the north, and the sea in the north (Lake Baikal) in the north, where the days are long and the nights are short. It shows that Dubo is bordered by the small sea (Lake Baikal) in the north, and Guligan is located in the north of the Han Sea, also known as the small sea (Lake Baikal), and this small sea can be crossed. The north and south of Xiaohai (Lake Baikal) are the central and southern parts of Northeast Asia, Yaku and other vast regions.

As for the real Arctic Ocean, which is different from Xiaohai (Lake Baikal), the New Tang Dynasty Book also records that the barge in the northwest of Yaku and other regions in Northeast Asia is 'the north of the Turks, and the North Pole is 14,000 miles away from Beijing'. It is 14,000 miles away from Chang'an in the north of the Turks, which means that the center of the barge is 14,000 miles away from Beijing, and the center is still some distance from the North Pole to the sea. From a geographical point of view, from the Tang people's point of calling Lake Baikal a small sea, and the ocean being called the sea and the sea, the "sea" of "the Arctic is in the sea" refers to the Arctic Ocean.

What is even more interesting is that the Tang people also called the Sea of Okhotsk in the southeast of the Yaku region of Northeast Asia "Little Sea". For example, "New Tang Dynasty Book. The Legend of Dongyi records: "The ghost is in the capital for 15,000 miles, the northeast of the black water and the northeast of the Shao (small) sea, and the sea is blocked on three sides,...... which clearly points out that the ghost is the bay formed by the continental shelf of the Kamchatka Peninsula and the southern vein and the northern vein of the Trans-Khingan Mountains is a small sea (bay) not a sea. It also clearly points out the other side of the sea, which is now known as the Bering Sea. In this way, the two seas in the southeast of the Yaku region of Northeast Asia, the Sea of Okhotsk and the Bering Sea, have been seen by the Tang people at a glance. (To be continued......)
