On the morning of September 20, 1788, the fleet of immigrants departing from Xingkai Lake Pier had arrived in Khabarovsk. There is massive construction work everywhere here, and the explosion-proof wall frames shipped from the Beihai Town Steel Plant are stacked up to the height of the mountain.
Obviously, this will be the fourth town built in Beihai Town after Fuldan City and Whale Town.
Since the Yuan Dynasty, Khabarovsk has been known as the "Medicine Begging Station". At that time, it was the 23rd station of the Nuergan Eastern Expedition from Liaoning to the Marshal's Mansion at the Heilongjiang Estuary. As a hub guarding five land and water transportation routes, Khabarovsk's strategic position in the entire outer northeast is very important.
In 1616, which was the first year of destiny, Nurhaci sent two generals, Darhan and Shuo Wengkeluo, to lead an expedition of 2,000 troops to the Saha Company in the East China Sea. They captured eleven villages and recruited forty chiefs of the Dog Tribe, including Bo. force.
In another time and space, just after the signing of the Treaty of Aihun, Tsarist Russia occupied this place and used it as a frontline military fortress to invade Northeast China, thus devouring more than one million square kilometers of land in the outer Northeast.
As a village affiliated to the Deputy Dutong Yamen of the Three Surnames, when Zhao Xin led his troops to Boli Village a few months ago, there were more than thirty Hezhe families here.
In fact, Zhao Xin and the others also passed through Boli when they went to Trinshiji before. They had an acquaintance with the leader of the local Hezhe people and gave them gifts of food, cloth, ironware, needlework and the like. When Liu Sheng married Ushiha at the beginning of this year, the head of Burli Village also went to Balke Village for a wedding banquet.
Zhao Xin spent three thousand kilograms of grain, one hundred iron pots, one hundred boxes of matches and other bits and pieces to buy a piece of land along the river from the Hezhetou people in Boli Village. It was a fair deal and both parties were satisfied. . The newly built Khabarovsk covers an area of about 300 acres, almost the size of 28 football fields.
"Everyone has disembarked. We will stop here for an hour and then leave. Be careful not to urinate anywhere!" On the deck of the flat-bottomed sailboat, a squad leader of the North Navy shouted loudly. "Your range of activities can only be within the area within the town. There are wild beasts in the woods outside the town, so be careful!"
Zhang Tinghe, from Quanzhou, Fujian Province, took his wife and children off the boat with the crowd. The family of five timidly looked at the people coming and going around them, at a loss.
"What's wrong?" The person who spoke was a security policeman on board the ship. When he saw Zhang Tinghe standing on the dock, he came over and asked.
Zhang Tinghe and his family were frightened to death when they saw these black clothes. They bowed tremblingly and said, "Master, what are we going to do when we get off the boat?"
The security policeman smiled slightly, pointed to a sign on the pier and said, "It says it all. It's convenient to eat. Just follow the arrows."
Zhang Tinghe quickly raised his hands and said, "Oh, thank you very much, sir."
After that, he took his wife and children and walked towards the sign. The security police behind him kept staring at him, which made Zhang Tinghe feel as uncomfortable as thorns in his back.
There is no other way, who allowed himself to be a member of the Heaven and Earth Society? Besides, if there was no way to survive, Zhang Tinghe would not have brought his family and Yan Yan by boat to this bitterly cold place in the far north.
Since Yan Yan and Liao Dong came to Beihai Town last year to try to unite but failed, the two didn't leave by boat until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month this year. But when he returned, he spent nearly two months repairing the ship in Ryukyu due to wind and waves. As a result, he missed the Qing army's encirclement and suppression by luck. By the time they arrived in Tamsui, Taiwan, it was already March, and Lin Shuangwen had long been captured by the Qing army in Laoquqi (around Zhunan Town, Miaoli, Taiwan).
People like Yan Yan and Liao Dong had become lost dogs at this time. After the Manchu Qing Dynasty learned the inside story of the Tiandihui in January this year, Qianlong attached great importance to it, and all parts of Fujian and Guangdong were strictly investigating and apprehending members of the Tiandihui. After discussing it, the two felt that the only way to go to Beihai Town was now.
So they first brought out more than a hundred remnants of the Tenchikai and their family members who were closest to them from Taiwan and Fujian, and then went all the way north to Ryukyu. When they landed in southern Kyushu to seek supplies, they were almost killed by the Sendai clan's samurai. By the time Ida Murucho, who was responsible for guarding Southern Kyushu, ordered their release, Yan Yan and the others had already been in prison for several months.
Most of the people Yan Yan brought out had joined the Tiandihui before the Lin Shuangwen Rebellion. These people were originally missionary in Taiwan to make money, but when the war broke out, many of them fled back to Fujian.
In many later generations' information, Lin Shuangwen's uprising is often called "Lin Shuangwen's Uprising of Tiandihui" or "Lin Shuangwen's Uprising led by Tiandihui". This statement is actually very inaccurate. The reason is that there is no direct causal relationship between the Tiandihui and Lin Shuangwen's uprising.
Taiwan in the early Manchu Qing Dynasty was an immigrant society with a large number of tourists and sharp social conflicts. This was a hotbed for partying and violence. Lin Shuangwen's uprising was a product of the violent development of Taiwanese society at that time, and the result of the fission of the tradition of the Baigujie Society. The Tiandihui only played an unconscious role in it, and the failure of Lin Shuangwen's uprising was an opportunity for the spread and evolution of the Tiandihui.
Historically, it was only after Lin Shuangwen was overthrown and Tiandihui was hunted down on a large scale by the Qing government that the founding purpose of Tiandihui began to change. That is, from "mutual aid and robbery" which implied "the inheritance of the Ming Dynasty" to the later "revolt against the Qing Dynasty and restoration of the Ming Dynasty".
So assuming that a time traveler reaches the early and mid-Qianlong era, if he really encounters the Tiandihui in Fujian and Guangdong, he will probably be robbed without even his underpants. If you are self-righteous and tell the other party something like "Heavenly Father and Earthly Mother, fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty", maybe this group of robbers and road hogs will capture you and send you to the official to collect the reward.
Beihai Town paid enough attention to the re-arrival of Yan Yan and his gang. As soon as they got off the ship, they were taken away by the security police and detained separately for questioning. After confirming their participation in Lin Shuangwen's rebellion, they were separated and sent to Heilongjiang City, Ezochi and Kuye in family units. All over the island.
As for Yan Yan and Liao Dong, as the leaders who were deeply involved in Lin Shuangwen's rebellion, they were both assigned to the coal mines in Ezo.
It is said that in ancient societies that relied on agriculture for their livelihood, settlement for generations was the norm, while migration was the abnormality. People who can become homeless live on the margins of society. Their true portrayal is that they are in need of food and clothing, homeless, bullied, and uncertain about their life or death.
However, there must be something hateful about poor people. In order to survive, help each other, and prevent bullying and robbery, these people gathered together by forming socialist parties. Whether it is Water Margin or Three Kingdoms, it has become the basis of their beliefs. Because most of the members are idlers, scoundrels and bachelors, once they become more mature, the mutual aid and self-defense within the group quickly evolve into various anti-social behaviors such as fighting, robbery, theft and even rebellion.
What Beihai Town needs is people who can work hard on the land and serve as soldiers honestly. This is the only way to deal with this group of socially unstable elements.
Zhang Tinghe was a small business owner selling groceries in Quanzhou. He was timid and lived a decent life, so he never participated in the fighting or road rage business. This guy joined the Tiandihui just to make money. Every time he develops a new one, he can receive a thousand cash. In addition to handing it over to Yan Yan, he can also lose a lot. After Lin Shuangwen killed officials and rebelled, Zhang Tinghe was so frightened that he even gave up the money he had collected and returned to Quanzhou that day.
After arriving in Beihai Town, after repeated questioning by the security police, Zhang Tinghe confessed everything he could and could not say, so now he was so frightened that his calves twisted when he saw the black uniform of the security police.
When Zhang Tinghe and his family arrived at the open-air canteen prepared for immigrants, they saw that everyone was served pasta again. Zhang Tinghe’s wife was a little unhappy and complained: “Why is it so difficult to eat rice? If I had known earlier, I would not have come to this place outside the pass."
Zhang Tinghe hurriedly covered his wife's mouth with his hand and scolded in a low voice: "Oh, please keep your voice down, it will be bad if those officials in black hear it."
"It's all your fault for having to join the Heaven and Earth Society in the first place! Look, how will you live your life in the future?!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Zhang Tinghe was also angry. He pointed at the earrings on the woman's ears and the jade bracelet on her wrist and said: "This, and this, which one was not bought with the original money? Who was it in the first place? Counting Yingyang is smiling every day, why didn't you say this now? Don't ask for it if you have the ability."
Gu: "Why shouldn't I? I gave birth to two babies for your Zhang family, and these are mine! Don't talk about this, Yingyang is also mine."
"You stupid woman, Yingyanghua can't go out here, why don't you just save it?"
"I'm happy with it. This is the money I'll save for my boss's future wedding. From now on, I'll count it in the morning and again in the evening. If there's one less Yingyang, it's up to you."
"You are seeking death! Keep your voice down, and people will hear you." Zhang Tinghe shook his head angrily, and continued: "I really admire you. It's like this in the barren mountains, and I can't even use it." "
The couple chatted in Minnan dialect, which others could not understand, but Zhang Tinghe's eldest son was not happy.
"Lao Bei Lao Mu, have you had enough arguing? My little brothers and sisters are all hungry."
Zhang Ting and his wife turned their heads and cursed in unison: "You bastard! No matter how big or small you are."
"When we stopped the ship just now, the officials said it would only be one hour. If you keep saying that, we won't even have time to eat."
"..."
The family ate in a hurry, followed the arrow directions to find a water fetching place, filled the kettles with water, and then returned to the dock and boarded the boat. When the time came, as the bell rang on the ship, the immigration fleet slowly left the temporary dock in Khabarovsk, turned into Heilongjiang, and headed northwest.
...
"Sir, may I ask when your King Zhao will come back?" Outside the Northern Navy Military Station on the north bank of the Mongolian River, a Qing military attaché from the other side of the river asked helplessly.
The captain of the Beihai Navy on the opposite side said calmly: "Go back and wait. I will tell you when I get back."
The military attache hurriedly raised his hands and said, "Master Liu, you and I have known each other for two years, right? I have always treated you with great respect and never offended you. Please, I can't do business this time."
Company commander surnamed Liu said: "Sir, it's not that I'm making things difficult for you, I really don't know."
The Qing military attache had no choice but to hold his fist and take a boat back to the other side to report.
It is said that Liu Yong, who was entrusted by Qianlong, wanted to start negotiations with Beihai Town as soon as possible since he arrived in Wula, Jilin.
Since August, Qianlong has been anxious and unable to sleep every day. Every two days, he sends a messenger to Liu Yong to inquire about the progress. What he fears most now is the sudden southward movement of the Northern Navy. The two sides had fought so many times, and both Qianlong and those at the Military Aircraft Department understood clearly that the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Jilin and Shengjing alone could not stop them. The problem is that it is too late to mobilize troops now. We must find out Zhao Xin's intentions through negotiations in order to formulate a response strategy.
Liu Yong originally wanted to sacrifice the Manchu son-in-law, Huo Jihun Saimal, to negotiate with Beihai Town, but now that Ninggu Pagoda was lost, Boli and Sanxing City were also lost, and he wanted to summon Huo Jihun to come to Jilin. Wu Lamian teaches you the right opportunity, but it is really a mountain high and the water is long, and there is nothing you can do.
He and Qinggui spent a long time among the crowd, and finally found that they could only choose Qitai.
When it comes to who is the most familiar with Zhao Xin in the court, Qitai would be second, and no one would dare to say first. That man thought he had no major conflict with Beihai Town. When Liu Sheng attacked Ning Guta, he ran away before firing a shot. But it was precisely because of this that Qianlong became furious afterwards. Na Qitai was ordered to stay in Jilin City and think about his mistakes.
Now that there is a chance to make a difference, Qitai will naturally rush to take advantage of it.
In mid-July, he set out from Ula, Jilin, and arrived at Hunchun Camp in 20 days. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, he arrived at the barracks on the south bank of the Mongolian River and negotiated with the Northern Navy stationed on the other side. Only then did he realize that Zhao Xin had not returned yet. .
In order to understand the situation, Na Qitai sent his men disguised as border residents to Fuldan City to contact their own spies. Only then did they know that Zhao Xin had led troops to fight against Yaksa. After he sent someone to report to Jilin Wula immediately, Liu Yong told him to wait until Zhao Xin returned. Once Zhao Xin came back, he would inform him immediately.
Various characters appeared in Beihai Town and made a fuss. Zhao Xin only got a general idea from the telegram. How to deal with many things in detail had to wait until he returned.
On September 23, 1788, after Zhao Xin survived ten days of unrest in Verkhnokhnudinsk, Liu Sheng arrived with men from the 2nd Battalion of the 6th Northern Navy Regiment.
Unlike the last time, this time the Northern Navy’s convoy drove directly outside the military camp in Verkhnokhnudinsk. There was a stir throughout Verkhnokhnudinsk, and all the residents came out to watch. If Zhao Xin hadn't sent troops to maintain order, he might have crushed a few to death.
The deafening roar of the motor scared the priests who came out to watch the excitement to the point of peeing. Looking at the tall blue car body, both priests and local residents kept crossing themselves on their chests and muttering "The devil is coming." ” and the like.
After all ten DT-10PA-1 vehicles passed, the already muddy road turned into a big mud pond.
Zhao Xin looked at the disgraced Liu Sheng and Fan Tong and asked, "Why did it take so long?"
Liu Sheng said: "Forget it, one car almost crashed and it started to drive after a whole day of tinkering. If I hadn't followed along, the agricultural machinery unit wouldn't have been able to do anything with it."
On September 25, after another day of rest, the Northern Navy stationed in Verkhnokhnudinsk set off again.
Zhao Xin led a battalion along the Selenga River to Lake Baikal to attack Irkutsk. Liu Sheng and Fan Tong took another battalion and sailed southward to Kyaktu.
