Shortly before the Jingshi was "surging undercurrent" because of a pre-imperial meeting, the "Great Qing Dingyuan General", "Ulan-Ude (Suwu Lake) Angbang Zhangjing", and the prince Aixin Jueluo, who were far away on the shore of the "Suwu Lake" lake. Jidu is already not idle, and even quite annoying.

On December 21 last year, the emperor decreed: Ordered Jidu to be the general of Dingyuan and lead his troops to the north. After more than a month of preparation, that is, just after the first month gate of the twelfth year of Shunzhi, Jidu ordered more than 30,000 men and horses of the Manchurian, Mongolian and Han Eight Banners [1] selected by lottery, and swept out of the Gyeonggi territory, crossed the century-old Zhangjiakou "Dajing Gate" [2], and went out of the Great Wall that was opened by the Qing Dynasty, and the army entered the fortress in an orderly manner.

According to the secret decree of the emperor Fulin, the army of Jidu was not in a hurry or impatient, and stopped all the way, especially on the territory of the Mongol kings in southern China. Those Mongol princes Beyler, when they heard that the army was passing by, all of them "ate pot pulp and welcomed the road", for fear that the soldiers of the court would not be happy to give themselves a "pot end". I walked like this for two months, just when the spring was bright, and then I entered the vast wasteland of Mobei Mongolia.

When the three tribes of the Khalkha tribes of Mobei Mongolia heard that such a large army had crossed the border, they were even more uneasy, as if they had let go of the original enmity between their tribes overnight, and they "unanimously" came to the camp of Jidu to "comfort the army", but in fact they were inquiring for news. According to the words explained by Emperor Fulin in advance, Jidu first expressed his intention: it was nothing more than a long-distance training and a visit to the leaders of the Mongol tribes in Mobei by the way, and he had no other intention. Followed by. Jidu asked in a mysterious way: Do you all plan to return the people who plundered the people of Monan, especially the Bahrain tribe a few years ago?

This is a public case that has been in place since the four years of Shunzhi. At that time, the Mongol tribes in the south of the desert had already submitted to the Qing court, but the Mongols in the north of the desert plundered the Mongolian tribes in Bahrain, and the Qing court was naturally angry, but because of the fact that the war in the south was in full swing not long after entering the customs, and they were not willing to start a war with the Mongol tribes in the north of the country, so it has always been you and I have been fighting a "saliva lawsuit". The Qing court's demand was that all the Khalkha tribes return the plundered Bahraini population and send Beizi to the court. However, the Mobei tribes just relied on not paying it back, and at most they were willing to send a representative to offer the "Jiubai Tribute [3]", not to mention the "Beizi into the court" as a hostage, so it was delayed until the eleventh year of Shunzhi and the final decision was not seen [4].

Now the imperial army has arrived. Jidu has this question. The first to be unbearable were the Ozirai Tushetu Khan, the Tenzin Lama, and the Chechen Khan of the Khalkha Ministry. Without waiting for them to speak, Bisiltu Khan and Ombu Erdeni of the Khalkha tribe preemptively stood up and confessed that they had been engaged in robbing the Bahrain tribe two months ago. The court was guilty of the above-mentioned table. and offered camels and horses. The request for "reconciliation" with the Qing Emperor was as before.

Everyone understands that the fortress is easiest to attack from within, and with those who take the lead in showing loyalty, the remaining tribes under the leadership of Tushetu Khan, Tenzin Lama and Chechen Khan have expressed their opinions. Immediately send your own Shoubeizi to set off soon, and bring the tribute of Jiubai to Beijing to apologize! In fact, after several years of negotiations and the gradual clarification of the situation, Mobei Mongolia has long realized the strength of the Qing court, and gradually clarified the main purpose of surrendering and accepting the feud, so it made a clear statement.

In the official history, in March of the twelfth year of the homeopathic situation, the above-mentioned leaders of the Khalkha Mongolian tribes have indeed entered Beijing since March, and have contributed camels and horses to the Qing court to show their submission. In October of that year, under the mediation of the Qing court, the leaders of the Khalkha tribes, such as Tushetu Khan, Tenjin Lama, Chechen Khan, and Morgenoyan, "swore an oath of peace and heard (the imperial court)". On December 26 at the end of the year, "the Khalkha tribe of Uzrai Tushetu Khan, Namen Ezhen, Chechen Khan, Daiqing Taiji, etc., sent envoys to ask for goodwill." (above) ordered the king of Duoluoan County to drink wine with his envoys and swear an oath in the Zongren Mansion", marking the official submission of the Mongol tribes in Mobei to the central government.

So, after a few days of feasting in Mobei Mongolia, Jidu, who had completed the mission of "piggybacking on his feet", set off again and continued to go north. When passing through the "Urge" [later renamed "Kulen", which is the so-called "capital" of Outer Mongolia today, "Ulaanbaatar", who was far away in Lhasa and was later "Khalkha Mongolian Living Buddha and the first Jebzundamba", the spiritual leader of Mobei Mongolia who was far away in Lhasa and was later "Khalkha Mongolian Living Buddha and the first Jebtsundamba" happened to send several Mongolian interpreters who were proficient in the Rakshasa language, expressing his willingness to go north with the army and serve in front of the army. Jidu was overjoyed and immediately smiled.

In this way, he stopped and walked for more than a month, and it was not until the beginning of June that Jidu, under the guidance of a guide and interpreter sent by the Living Buddha, entered the "Dalai Nuoer" lake, which is called "a lake like the sea" in Mongolia. At that time, Jidu corrected with a smile: "We called this place 'Baihar Lake' early in the morning, which is the same as your meaning!" But from this day on, it will still be called this name - Baihar Lake! What he knew was that it was the will of Blessing; He didn't know what it was, but in fact, this was Xiao Xuanye's "knowledge popularization" for the emperor beforehand.

It's just that the name of "Baihar Lake" has only been used for a little more than two months, and with the arrival of a court report two days ago, Baihar Lake has added a Chinese name - "Suwu Lake". Moreover, the court newspaper clearly demanded that from today onwards, in the official documents of the Qing Dynasty, this lake is called "Baihar Lake" in Manchu and "Suwu Lake" in Chinese.

The intention is self-evident: to commemorate the Han man Su Wu who shepherded sheep in the North Sea!

On the same day, Hongyi learned from the conversation with the emperor's reborn father that Jidu had finally arrived in the Selenga River Valley, which was simply dancing and happy, which attracted Fulin's interest. After calming down a little, Little Belle suddenly remembered an allusion from the "Old Man Mao" back then-

At the end of 1949, the old man returned to China by special train after visiting the Soviet Union, and he was very interested along the way, getting off the bus to visit everywhere he went, and actively cooperating with the reception of local officials. But when they arrived at Lake Baikal, the mood of the old man changed abruptly, and he neither got out of the car nor stopped, and immediately ordered to drive, leaving the local officials to cool off. After driving, he looked at the vast Baikal Lake and asked Chen Boda, who was accompanying him: "Do you know what this place is?" Chen replied: "The capital of the Buryat Mongolian Autonomous Republic is Ulan-Ude. The old man's face sank when he heard this: "Don't I know Ulan-Ude yet?" I mean, what is this place in history? Remember, it is called Uginsk, it is the territory of China, and it is the place where our Suwu shepherds sheep! ”

Therefore, Hongyi put forward a proposal to make this lake named "Suwu Lake" from the perspective of gathering Hanchen's thoughts, and immediately got the approval of the emperor who was quite sinicized.

[1] The so-called 30,000 horses is the data in the historical materials of Hongyi's reference to Li Jidu, as the general of Dingyuan, who swung his army south to conquer Zheng Chenggong. Now that Fujian has been decided, it should not be a problem for the 30,000 people who were originally prepared to take it out and go north.

[2] Zhangjiakou belonged to Youzhou in ancient times, and the Qin, Han and Three Kingdoms were all Shanggu counties. After the five dynasties, Jin Shi Jingtang, after cutting Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures to offer Khitan, Zhangjiakou was Liao and Jin Diezhan. During the Ming Dynasty, Zhangjiakou was under the jurisdiction of the Xuanfu avant-garde. Zhangjiakou Fort, located in the center of Zhangjiakou City, was built by Zhang Wen, the commander of Xuande in the fourth year of Ming Dynasty (1429 AD). The fort side is more than 2 kilometers, 11 meters high, the southeast two sides open the door, the east gate is called "Yongzhen", the south gate is called "Chengen". In the sixteenth year of Chenghua (1480 AD), the city of Guancheng was expanded. In the eighth year of Jiajing (1529 AD), Zhang Zhen was commanded to rebuild the castle, and the door was called "Zhangjiakou" in the north of the city, and the brick castle was wrapped in the second year of Wanli (1574 AD). In the first year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1644 AD), in the Ming Dynasty Zhangjiakou Great Wall, a gate of each size was opened, called "small gate" in the east, and "big gate" in the west. At that time, the Xiaojing Gate was a passage for Han and Mongolian merchants to do business, while the Dajing Gate was used by the government.

[3] "Jiubai Tribute" is the name of the Khalkha Mongol contribution in the Qing Dynasty. Its tribute is a white camel and eight white horses. In the third year of Chongde (1638), Khalkha sent an envoy to ask for tribute, and Qing Taizong ordered him to enter Jiubai. In the thirtieth year of Kangxi (1691), it was decided that only the three departments of Jebuzundan Bahutuktu, Tushetu Khan, and Chechen Khan were allowed to enter Jiubai, and the rest of the departments were not allowed to enter without permission. During the Yongzheng period, the annual tribute of the Saiyin Nuoyan Department was increased.

[4] A passage in the "Qing Historical Manuscript" is very illustrative: (June of the 10th year of Shunzhi) the edict to the Khalkha tribe of Oqilai Tushetu Khan, Chechen Khan, Tenzin Lama, etc., saying: The former imperial decree and others will return the population of Bahrain and send them to the court as the head of Beizi to thank them for the crime of plundering Bahraini livestock. Those who flee will be dealt with at that time. Today, he disobeyed the previous edict, did not send the head of the Beizi to the court, and did not enter the current year's regular tribute livestock, and did not pay the population of Bahrain, and he was guilty of many crimes. On the contrary, the Beizi who returned to the court came to play, and it was very unreasonable! Even if I have paid off the population of Bahrain and sent Beizi to the court, he has already voted for the minister of Beizi, and I will not send it back immediately. But all the population of Bahrain shall be returned to me, and the shells shall be sent to the court, and from then on, there shall be any more escapees, and they shall be carried out at that time. Otherwise, not only will the Beizi who has been voted not be returned immediately, and those who come and return from the Beizi ministers will be adopted and favored with wealth and nobility!
