Chapter 496: Bohai Kingdom, traitors are caught

The road is not left behind, and the night is not closed. The ancients used this sentence to describe the peace of the world, or the simplicity of the people.

As everyone knows, the times have changed, and the standard for a small country with a small number of people is no longer applicable to a huge empire.

Just as there are harsh laws, it is impossible to completely eradicate violations and crimes.

It's just that there are very few prisoners in the prisons of the Ming Empire, and all the prisoners have been exiled except for the most heinous crimes. Prisoners from the northern provinces went to the northeast, while those from the south had more options.

Now, there is Kuba Island in the north, and with Vladivostok, there are too few prisoners, and some "supply exceeds demand".

The ruffians and scoundrels are unlucky. Originally, they were beaten a few boards and squatted in prison for a few days, but all of them were exiled, and they were very "welcomed" in the remote areas where they were full of immigration plans and begged for "people".

If this system is carried out according to this standard, it is estimated that it will not be very far away to achieve the goal of not leaving a stone unturned and not closing the door at night.

Of course, the emperor did not care whether this goal could be achieved. He was more concerned about expanding the territory and more concerned about how to stabilize the long-term occupation.

As the spread of the catastrophe intensifies, the migration work continues in an orderly manner.

Shandong, Beizhili, Henan and other provinces, although there has not been a large-scale disaster, but the people who have no land and little land are still attracted by the preferential policies and go to Liaodong to settle down.

The migration of the population also made the Ming army's northward advance more foundational, across the Songhua River, the Ming army advanced by land and water, and once again took a solid step to the north.

"The Bohai Kingdom in the Tang Dynasty, it should be, right?" Nala Zhongming slowed down his horse and asked the Han staff beside him for advice: "I heard that it is quite famous in history. ”

The staff smiled and said: "Tang Xuanzong canonized Da Zuorong as the king of Bohai County, and awarded the governor of Kuhan Prefecture, with the name 'Bohai'. Now our army is in its country, and there are still sixty or seventy miles to its Shangjing Longquan Mansion (now Ning'an, Heilongjiang). ”

Shaking his head slightly, the staff was very emotional, and said: "In its heyday, the Bohai Kingdom had five capitals, fifteen prefectures, and sixty-two prefectures, and its culture was deeply influenced by the culture of the Tang Dynasty, and it enjoyed the reputation of 'the prosperous country of Haidong'. ”

Nala Zhongming smiled and said, "It's not strange that it prospers and declines, and declines and dies. ”

At the height of the Bohai Kingdom, it was bounded by the Hunjiang River (now Datong River) and Nihe River (now Longxing River) and Silla in the south, the area of the Sanjiang Plain in the north, and the Heishui Turtle in the north, the Sea of Japan in the east, and the vicinity of Baicheng and Da'an in Inner Mongolia in the west, bordering the Khitan, with "hundreds of thousands of soldiers", and it was a vast power in the Northeast at that time.

Unfortunately, the homeland of the Bohai Kingdom was greatly damaged in the war, and the Bohai civilization also suffered a devastating catastrophe; Its remnants fled or were forcibly relocated in large numbers, and integrated into the Jurchen, Korean, Mongolian, and Han ethnic groups.

The staff talked about the historical rise and fall of the Bohai Kingdom, and Nala Zhongming listened to it with relish, looking around, but it was a piece of wilderness, where is there any trace of the "prosperous country in the east of the sea"?

"Your Excellency." Scout Pegasus came back and reported, "Another group of men ran out of the mountains and surrendered. ”

Because of Nala's loyalty, the title of Jianyu was tried not to be said in front of him. Of course, he didn't care. Because he has long not thought of himself as a barbarian in Jianzhou, but a courtier of the Ming Dynasty.

Nala Zhongming nodded and said, "You have to check carefully, don't let those guys slip through the net." ”

Those guys are naturally the "traitors" appointed by the emperor. Fan Wencheng, Luo Jinxiu, Li Yongfang, etc., are absolutely unforgiving, those who live must be relieved to the capital, and those who are dead must see heads or corpses.

The further north you go, the more people surrender. There are Manchus, there are Mongols, and there are Han Chinese.

A few years later, under the harsh environment, they are all about to turn into wild people. The clothes, in particular, have been so bad that they have been torn off into strips of cloth, and they can only be covered with fur.

You can't raise silkworms, you can't grow cotton, and you don't have a lot of materials to carry when you retreat. It is not surprising that such a scene has appeared.

Nala Zhongming gently dusted off his straight woolen military uniform, and a little dust fell. It's warm and cold at the beginning of spring, and it's just right to dress.

After walking some distance, Nala Zhongming saw a group of people surrounded by soldiers on the grass beside the road.

The hair was unkempt, the animal skin was wrapped, the face was black and thin, and the pile of weapons thrown next to it was extremely rudimentary.

Wretched! Nala Zhongming shook his head, a little nostalgic for his home in Jilin Fucheng.

In the big mansion of Sanjin, in winter, the fire wall burns so that only Chinese clothes are worn, and in summer they buy ice cubes, and they fan people, and they change their appearance every day when they eat and drink, and they live comfortably.

"The remnants of the Jianyu still have to resist stubbornly?" Nala Zhongming sneered, but in his heart he hoped that it would end soon, and after making this achievement, he would be able to go home and continue to enjoy.

The staff shook his head and said, "I guess I still haven't given up." As soon as Dai Shan died, he didn't have the prestige and seniority to make an idea, so he made a lot of noise. ”

From the people who fled south, a lot of information was obtained. Daishan died of illness last year, and Dolgon and others faced difficulties, but there were constant disputes and no unified opinion.

The climate is getting colder and colder, and the harvest has been poor and bad for several years, so that the remnants of Jianyu have no seeds. Relying on fishing and hunting, where can you raise so many people?

The Han people who followed Jianyu were the first to run out of food, and it has been almost two or three years. When the catastrophe comes, they fly separately, and the Jianyu can't take care of their own people, so how can they care about the Han people who take refuge in them?

What literacy and hyphenation, what kind of strategic articles, the traitors who fell into this step of the field are not as strong as the survival ability of the Han Ahba!

The death of the dead, the flight of the south, starting with the Han Chinese, then the Mongols, and finally the Manchus.

Suddenly, there was a commotion, and Nala Zhongming frowned and stopped his horse to look.

It was the group of people who had surrendered, and the soldiers dragged out two men from it, tied with ropes.

Oh, caught a big fish?

Nala's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly urged his horse over.

"My lord, catch two traitors." A small Manchu flag stepped forward to report it, with an excited smile on his face.

"What's your name?" Nala asked eagerly.

"Lord Hui, one is Ning Wanme, and the other is Ma Guozhu." Manchu Xiaoqi said proudly: "I want to escape from under the nose of a certain and dream." Peeled off, I recognized his bones. ”

Nala Zhongming laughed and said, "Well done, rewarded." ”

Ning finished me, who was originally a border citizen of Liaoyang at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and took the initiative to defect to Jianyu. When the old slave was alive, Ning Wan me, like other traitors, was difficult to be reused, just a pen post.

But history did not develop according to the original trajectory, and before Ning Wan could give advice to Huang Taiji, Jianyu had already been defeated and fled north in embarrassment.

Ma Guozhu is also a traitor, but he is not very famous. It is said that it was introduced by Ning Wan, which can be described as a nest of snakes and rats.

In the list approved by the emperor, Fan Wencheng, Ning Wanme, and Bao Chengxian are ranked in the top three, which shows the emperor's hatred.

Nala Zhongming rejoiced in his heart, catching a big fish, he could make Long Live Longyan happy, and this credit was easy.

In his heart, he hopes to return to Beijing to take up his post. Legend has it that the emperor also meant to appoint more ethnic minority officials to the court.

The prosperity of the capital, Nala Zhongming has seen it, and never forgets it.

Compared with Jilin Mansion, it is not half a point. Jingguan, that is also a noble status.

Well, with this credit, that guy from the cold monk machine shouldn't be able to compete with himself, right?
