Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 945: They are the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty

Although it was already March, Kebohaier Lake was still frozen. It was three or four hundred miles away from the nearest Qing army stronghold, and it was even more than a thousand miles away from Ninggu Pagoda. The people who live here are the Feiyala, Baerhu and Daur people, who are despisedly called "born barbarians" by the Qing army, as well as some Ewenki and Sauron people who do not want to be incorporated into the Eight Banners by the Qing Dynasty. Some have lived here for generations, while others migrated from the south with their fathers and grandparents decades ago. Among them are Han Chinese who escaped the massacres of the Manchurians, and even some descendants of the Ming army guards.

These Ming army guards were under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty Nuergandu. The guards guarded the frontier for the Ming Dynasty in the far north. When they were at their peak, they really expanded their territory and their territory was far wider than the current Qing Dynasty in the south. , there are 384 guardhouses alone. The jurisdiction of the territory starts from the Onen River in the west, Sakhalin Island in the east, Xing'an Mountains in the north, and the Sea of ​​Japan and the upper reaches of the Tumen River in the south, including the Heilongjiang River Basin and the Ussuri River Basin to the Sakhalin The vast area of ​​the island. It is a pity that at the end of Wanli, the dragon and tiger general Nuerhachi of Jianzhou Guard raised his troops to rebel and occupied the outside of the pass, making it impossible for the Ming army guards in the extreme north to get in touch with the inside of the pass. It gradually fell into disuse. The original garrison either died in the battle with the rebels, or was integrated into the local ethnic groups. The 384 Wei was never seen again. Only the ruins witnessed the Ming Dynasty's jurisdiction over the northern polar regions and hundreds of ethnic groups, telling the world. , How powerful was the Ming Dynasty, and how small was the Manchu Qing who replaced him. (Author's note: The Ming Dynasty did not manage the Nuergan Dusi by custody, but actually managed it effectively. Every year, the court appointed officials to govern the area, that is, the officials.)

There is another large lake thousands of miles west of Lake Baikal, called Lake Baikal. Four hundred miles to the southwest is a city called Yakos, which was originally a Mongolian tribe, but it was occupied by the Rakshasa people from the west in recent years. Those Rakshasa people had very powerful firearms, and the Mongols couldn't beat them, so they voluntarily abandoned this place and moved to the south. A few years ago, the generals of the Qing Dynasty outside the pass sent troops to attack Yakos, but unfortunately they were defeated by the Rakshasa people halfway, losing several ships and hundreds of soldiers. After that, the Qing army no longer dared to provoke those Rakshasa devils with green eyes and red hair, and Yakos became a stronghold of the Rakshasa people. With Yakos, the Rakshasa people continued to extend their power to the surrounding tribes, causing all tribes to suffer.

Baihaier Lake was not spared either. Two years ago, a team of Rakshasa soldiers came here. After killing dozens of Bal tigers who dared to resist, they built a stronghold upstream and ordered all the surrounding tribes to regularly sacrifice them for them. Food and fur, herbs and exotics. Because the Qing army in the south did not dare to come, and the tribes dared not speak out against the oppression of the Rakshasa people, they had to pay tribute regularly to ensure the safety of the tribe.

..........

On the edge of a secluded forest on the north bank of Lake Berher, a wooden house stood alone, surrounded by a low fence, and some vegetables grew in the open space outside. In the yard, a child with double-horned braids hugged his slightly chubby mother coquettishly, blinking at her mother with shy and expectant eyes. At his feet was a basket with a broken side containing several potatoes.

"Grandma, why didn't Dad come back?"

"Agu, do you miss Dad or do you want to eat meat?"

"Dad said it when he left, and he came back and brought meat to Agu."

The child tilted his head and looked into the distance. There was no Abba in his sight. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Seeing her son's disappointment, the woman was a little amused and a little sad. Since the Rakshasa people came here, their lives have changed. In the past, men could catch yellow sheep spores every time they went out. The family could not only have enough to eat, but also exchange the excess prey for some oil and salt. Now they have to work for the Rakshasa people for 20 days a month. Living, the remuneration is also pitiful, and it is impossible to maintain a family's expenses. In order to supplement the family, the woman has used the open space around the house as much as possible, and usually eat as little as possible with the man, leaving the only meat to her only son, so that he can eat enough and grow up healthy and happy. However, there is too little meat. Men spend most of the month working for the Rakshasa people. After returning, they can't catch enough prey, and the prey they get has to pay most of the tax to the Rakshasa people. Officer, I can't live this day at all.

Looking at her son's slightly yellow face, the woman's heart couldn't help but hurt a little, sighed, and cursed a few damned Rakshasa robbers in secret, if it weren't for these robbers, their family's life should be happy, no Carefree. He also complained about why the Qing army in the south did not decide for them, causing them to be bullied by the Rakshasa devils.

"Why hasn't Keik come back yet?"

After standing with her son for a while, the woman became a little worried about the man. She picked up her son and walked out of the courtyard door to look into the distance. Today is the day when the man comes back. Usually at this time, he has already returned with the pitifully little dried meat given by the Rakshasa people. Why hasn't he come back so late today? The stronghold of the Rakshasa people is dozens of miles away from here. Every time the construction period is over, the man will rush home, but now he has not returned, and the woman can't help but feel a little worried.

Did something happen on the way? The woman became more and more worried. The man was a very punctual and family-oriented person. Every time he was off work, he would rush home as soon as possible. He would never stop at other places. She couldn't help but get nervous, she was a little scared. Since the Rakshasa people came, she has heard that many people from the clan were killed by them, right? ... The woman didn't dare to think about it, she couldn't imagine the situation where Keik was killed by the Rakshasa.

The child noticed a change in his mother's face, and his little hand gently hugged his mother's arm, and called his mother in a tender voice: "Mama, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, Agu."

The woman didn't want her son to be nervous, so she forced a smile at him, her eyes fixed on the road leading to Yakos, hoping that Keik would soon appear in the line of sight with his signboard. He smiled and opened his hands to his son from a distance. After a short wait, the woman's eyes suddenly lit up because she saw her man, Keik.

"Kike! Kick!"

"Daddy, Daddy!"

The woman and the child screamed at the same time, and the child struggled to jump out of his mother's arms and quickly ran towards Abba. Seeing this, the woman did not call her son, but just smiled and looked at the man who was getting closer and closer. As the man's figure got closer, the woman's eyes suddenly froze, and the smile on her face instantly froze. She saw that there were many, many people behind the man.

"Is this your son?"

Manzhou Zuoling Doqina, who was riding on a horse, saw a cute child running over in front of him, and asked with a smile.

Keik, who had recovered from the panic and unease just now, hurriedly nodded to Dochina: "Sir, that is the son of the villain."

"Your son is very cute, what's his name?" Docina lightly mounted his mount, and the steed took a few steps forward.

"Agu."

Although the Manchu man in front of him was very friendly, Keik still instinctively maintained enough respect for him, as if he was treating those Rakshasa people, his voice was always very low, he did not dare to increase the volume, and every time he answered When Master Zuo Ling asked a question, he lowered his head and did not dare to look directly at each other.

"Agu, Agu..." Doqina repeated several times, hehe said with a smile: "Good name."

"Dad!"

Agu also saw that there were many people behind his father, but he had no other thoughts, just wanted to get his father's hug as soon as possible. In Agu's young mind, his father's embrace was as warm and safe as his mother's, and those who were with him were naturally good people, so he was not afraid of uncles with braids that he had never seen behind his father.

Seeing that his son was about to rush in front of him, Keyk subconsciously wanted to reach out to hug~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but just moved his hand, but suddenly retracted, and lowered his head a little nervously and didn't dare to. fidgeting.

"Go and hug your son."

Doqina, who was sitting on the horse, observed Keik's reaction and knew that this timid Daur man was afraid of himself and his subordinates. In order to let the Daur man lead the way with peace of mind, Dochina comforted him and said, "By the way, tell your wife that we are officers and soldiers of the Qing Dynasty, and you have to take us to the stockade."

"Yes, my lord."

After listening to Zuo Ling's words, Keyi hesitated slightly, then took a few steps forward, hugged Agu who was running over, held him in his arms, and lifted him up and down, his face filled with sincere expression. smile.

After handing the pound of dried meat in his hand to Agu, Keyk hugged him and walked over to the fence. After walking to his wife who looked suspicious, he looked back and handed Agu to his wife's arms. , said softly: "Don't be afraid, they are soldiers of the Qing Dynasty and want to see our patriarch."

"What did the Qing people do when they saw our patriarch?"

The woman was very strange. In my impression, the Qing army in the south was very indifferent to these tribes, and they didn't care whether they lived or died. Why did they send someone to see the patriarch this time?

"I don't know, you bring the children back to the house, and I'll take them there."

Keyk shook his head. He really didn't know the purpose of the Qing people, but the Qing troops were very good to him along the way. He guessed that it might not be a bad thing. It may be that the Qing army in the south wanted to deal with the Luo people from other places. Sharen, this is where the help of these locals is needed. Thinking that if the Qing army could drive the Rakshasa people away, he would no longer have to work for the Rakshasa people, and Keik's heart suddenly became hot. Help the Qing army drive away those Rakshasa devils who bully others.
