Chapter 946: Catch the Mouth

The tribe of the Kyik was a branch of the Daur people in Lake Berhail and was also known as the Saurons by the Manchus, although the Daur people have always believed that they are descendants of the Great Liao Khitans. As early as www.biquge.info Later Jin Dynasty, Nurhachi conquered a large number of Sauron tribes, and after the Jin Dynasty changed to the Qing Dynasty, Chongde five years, Hong Tai will have captured Sauron Zhuangding, women and children, a total of 5,673 people, into the Eight Banners, Manchurian called this "grasp the mouth".

Through the means of "grasping the mouth", Manchu was able to replenish the number of people lost due to the war, so that the battleable soldiers of the Eight Banners were always maintained at about 50,000. Before entering the customs, the population of the Daur people in the Eight Banners reached tens of thousands, and there were more than 2,000 people who could wear armor.

The last large-scale "capture" of the so-called Saurons such as Daur, Feiyala, and Evenki occurred in the seventh year of Chongde (the fifteenth year of Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty), and this time there were about 3,000 Saurons. After the Qing army entered the pass, the center of gravity shifted from outside the pass to the inside of the pass, because there were a large number of Han troops and the surrendered original Ming army available, for the various ethnic groups outside the pass to "grasp the mouth" to supplement the loss of this means has never been used.

Now nineteen years have passed, the Qing court once again used the "grasp of the mouth" to supplement the eight banners in the Guannei, this means is implemented at the same time as the large-scale raising of the flag for the green battalion of the Han army, in the eyes of the emperor both are related to the survival of the Qing Dynasty, but in the eyes of the princes and ministers of the Eight Banners of Manchuria, "grasping the mouth" is far more important than carrying the flag to the Han army.

In the eyes of the Manchurian princes and ministers, the Manchus are the Manchus, and the Han people are the Hans, and the emperor raised the Han people as the Manchus, which completely messed up the foundation of Manchuria. This method seems to be effective at the beginning, but it is tantamount to drinking water to quench thirst, and many people assert that those who will die in Manchu in the future will be Han Chinese. And the large-scale lifting of the Han people into the flag seriously violated the interests of the original banner Manchuria, as soon as the flag was raised, many banner people in Beijing wailed that we waited for the birth and death of Taizu Taizong, in exchange for the hardcore crop of the flag salary, but those Han people were easily carried into the Eight Banners, enjoying the privileges and benefits that they had exchanged for their lives in old Manchuria, why is this? It's not fair!

The emperor's move is completely unimportant, listening to the slander of the Han people, fooling around, destroying the Great Wall, digging his own foundation, and abandoning the stupid behavior of the old banner man who was born and died in the Qing Dynasty!

For several days in a row, the banner people crying outside the palace gate are densely packed, and as long as the flag people in Beijing can walk the road, they basically come over. Some of the banner people of the two yellow flags were dissatisfied with the fact that their masters were carrying the flag for the Han people, and they did not dare to come over, so they encouraged others to come, and there was a stir for a while, which was even worse than the two years before when they heard that they were going south to garrison and make trouble. However, as in the previous cases, the protests of the banner people were not heeded by the palace, and the emperor also uncharacteristically sent troops to suppress them, forcing the banner owners to bring their subordinates back, so that the situation calmed down.

The situation was suppressed, but the officials who promoted the flag raising led by Prince Ke Kang Jieshu encountered strong backlash pressure from within the Eight Banners. The voices and resistance to raising the flag for the Han people in Beijing are too great, this matter is related to the interests of Manchuria, but also to the survival of the Qing Dynasty. They failed to force the palace last time, but they did not feel the emperor's magnanimity towards them, but they have always been angry, and they want to use this flag raising to make waves. If it weren't for the fact that most of the generals of the two yellow flags stood firmly on the emperor's side, the queen mother's side also gave the emperor's support, and the eight banners outside the border brought by Dunbai, the opposition's strength was too weak, and I am afraid that the matter of raising the flag would have been stillborn long ago.

Seeing that it was impossible to stop raising the flag for the Han army, Ye Bushu and others cursed the poor ghosts and cows of the lower five banners outside the pass for being short-sighted and not fighting for the interests of the flag people with them, and at the same time suddenly entered the palace and proposed to Shunzhi that the purpose of carrying the flag of the Han army into the flag was to make up for the loss of the people of the Eight Banners of Manchuria, so why can't they follow the example of Taizu Taizong who continued to "catch the mouth" outside the pass, wouldn't this be safer and more stable than carrying the flag for the Han people.

At the beginning, Shunzhi didn't understand what the fourth brother meant by "catching the raw mouth", and after Su Ke Saha whispered about the coming dragon of this matter, Shunzhi's eyes lit up, and he did not accept it because this matter was proposed by Ye Bushu, but immediately issued an order to immediately catch the raw mouth outside the gate and send it to the gate.

The reason why Shunzhi agreed to the invitation of Ye Bushu and others was completely because he thought of Ye Bushu and them, although he was forced to accept the suggestions of Fan Wencheng and Ning Wan and others to raise the flag for the army and reuse Han officials, but in his bones he still did not believe in the Han people. Therefore, if he could use the means of "grasping raw mouths" to replenish Manchu with "fresh blood" other than the Han people, and dilute the proportion of the Han people in the banner, he would naturally be happy to see it.

Moreover, there are many generals in the Eight Banners who were born in the "Shengkou" who was arrested by Taizu Taizong back then, and the first-class guard Feiyangu around Shunzhi is an Evenki, and time has proved that Feiyangu and other "Shengkou" are loyal to the Qing Dynasty, so Shunzhi thinks that it is very appropriate to continue to use this method to catch the barbarians outside the customs and incorporate them into the Eight Banners. In the will to Guanwai, Shunzhi did not shy away from the importance of the Jurchens born outside Guanwai to Manchuria.

Because the governor of Shengjing, Dunbai, led the army into the customs, the people who carried out the task of catching the mouth were the Manchurian Yellow Banner Gushan Ezhen and the Ningguta Governor Darhan who stayed outside the pass.

Darhan was quite a headache when he received this order, and Tunbai entered the pass this time to absorb nearly eighty percent of the military strength of the Eight Banners outside the pass, so that the garrisons of Shengjing and Ningguta were very empty, while the Rakshasas occupying Yaksa, Yacos, and Huma Fort in the north were becoming more and more arrogant, and often went south to clash with the patrol team of the Qing army, although Darhan had tried his best to restrain his subordinates from clashing with the Rakshasas, so as not to expand the war and affect the security of Ningguta and Shengjing. The more the Qing army showed weakness and retreated, the more ferocious the Rakshasa people became, and they had ambushed the Qing army's patrol twice, killing more than 60 Qing soldiers, and slaughtering a Feiya Laren village that provided resting ground and food for the Qing army's patrol team, resulting in a tragedy of more than 300 dead and wounded.

The news was reported to Darhan, and looking at the Flying Tooth who knelt there and begged for revenge for his people, Darhan was really entangled. It's not that he doesn't want to send troops to clean up those Rakshasa red-haired ghosts, so he beats them like the previous governor of Ningguta, Shalda Hu, but he really doesn't have enough troops to send them. The Rakshasas are very cunning, they never fight when they find the Qing army, but retreat to their forts to hold on, and the fortresses they build are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they are not at all able to break through the Eight Banners outside the Guan.

At that time, Tunbai and Darhan discussed how to solve the problem of the Rakshasas, and they agreed that in order to completely defeat the Rakshasas and capture their fortress, they must send an army of no less than 30,000 people in the Guannai, and carry enough artillery, otherwise, it will be difficult to capture the fortress of the Rakshasas.

But now the war in the Guanmin is not good, the imperial court not only can't transfer the army, but also has to enter the Eight Banners outside the Guan, and the Eight Banners stationed in Shengjing and Ningguta and other places together are only more than 3,000, which makes Darhan dare to send troops to avenge the Feiyala people. It's good that the battle is won, but if it is defeated, the land of Longxing in the Qing Dynasty can be completely exposed in front of the greedy Rakshasa devils.

Darhan gritted his teeth and dragged the Flying Tooth Lama from left and right, and the next day he received a holy decree from Beijing.

Darhan is obviously no stranger to "catching raw mouths", when he was young, he was often ordered to go out to catch raw barbarians, but now looking at the surroundings of Shengjing and Ningguta, how can there be any raw Jurchen? Over the decades, everything that could be caught was caught, and the rest ran to the far north. Not only is the terrain unfamiliar and the climate cold, but what is even worse is that the Rakshasa people are very active there.

After much consideration, Darhan wrote to the imperial court, believing that it was better to risk fighting the Rakshasas and wasting his energy to catch an unknown number of barbarians than to coerce the approaching Korean State to send troops into the customs to fight. When Emperor Taizong was there, didn't North Korea send troops to help the Qing Dynasty deal with the Ming army.

After giving the court an excerpt, because of the strong urging of the will, Darha could only pass down the order of "catching the mouth" one by one, and he repeatedly emphasized to the generals below that he must not conflict with the Rakshasas.

........

Half a month ago, he led his troops to the north, raiding and arresting all the way, and had successively relieved more than 400 Dingkou to Buhat and Ningguta, but this number was too far away from the indicators given to him by Ningguta, so he had to risk advancing north.

Fortunately, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and on the way north, he did not find the Rakshasas, and after searching in the vast forest for three days, he finally found a Dalhu people.

The process of "catching the mouth" is extremely bloody, and only by conquering the other party first can the other party die for you, and the loyalty obtained by good words or heavy money lure is extremely limited.

In order to let the Flying Tooth Lama lead the way, so as not to startle the snake, Dozina bewitched Kyik all the way, and tricked the other party into taking him to Hanzi. As a result, after the Feiya Patriarch refused to requisition the order, the Manchurian soldiers immediately showed their fangs.

When the patriarch fell in front of him with his neck in his arms, Kayik was extremely remorseful, and he screamed and rushed forward to fight the Qing soldiers, only to be cut to the ground by Lord Salead, who had been kind to him all the way.

After some killing, Dozina and his Manchurian soldiers proudly left the village with more than 300 captured raw mouths.

300 of the Ur were driven numbly forward by the Qing army, who did not know where they were going to send them. At the forefront were more than 40 young men, followed by old and weak women and children.

On both sides of the line, the Qing soldiers held knives and whips and reprimanded them to speed up.

"Grandma, aren't they uncles who came with Abba, why did they drive us away, where is Abba?"

When Keik's wife heard her son's words, she couldn't help but redden, and she didn't dare to tell Agu that his father's head was hanging on the back of a Qing army's horse.
