Chapter 251 The Blackwater Governor's Mansion
Finally, 400 Japanese were recruited from Jinshan City, plus the previous Bohai people and Han people, the total number was almost two thousand. Chen Bing took these people on a boat and went north to Anbian Prefecture in Bohai Kingdom.
At this point, we have to introduce the Mohe. This historical nation is divided into seven tribes, namely the Sumo Mohe (they are the Bohai people who established the Bohai Kingdom and connected with ancient Goryeo), the Bodu tribe (the Sumo Mohe tribe)
North of the Anchegu tribe), Anchegu tribe (in the northeast of Bodu), Funie tribe (in the east of Bodu), Haoshi tribe (in the east of Funie), Heishui tribe (in the northwest of Anchegu), Baishan tribe (in the northwest of Anchegu), Baishan tribe (in the east of Bodu)
Southeast of millet millet).
Among them, the Heishui Mohe tribe was called Jurchens by the Khitan people at this time. In the first year of Liao Tianxian (926), Taizu Yelu Abaoji destroyed the Bohai Sea. Some Jurchens moved south with the Bohai people and were included in the Liao nationality. They were called
"Mature Jurchens"; the Jurchens who stayed in their hometown without registering as Liao citizens were called "born Jurchens", that is, the Jurchens who established the Jin Kingdom in later generations.
Heishui Mohe is located in the northernmost area, in the Songhua River Basin and both sides of the lower reaches of Heilongjiang River. Due to weather conditions, it developed slowly and was divided into sixteen tribes. During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the Heishui Dudu Mansion was set up in this large tribe, with its leader as the governor.
However, the reputation of a real girl is not given in vain. Compared with the Jurchens who live in Changbai Mountain, they are even more fierce.
The Fu Ni tribe belongs to one of the sixteen tribes of Heishui Mohe. It is located in the lower reaches of the Wusuli River, close to Anbian Prefecture and Anyuan Prefecture in the Bohai Kingdom. It can even be said that except for the two prefectures, the rest of the territory is their grazing land.
land.
In addition to paying tribute and exchanging iron tools and salt, they rarely met with the Bohai people. Even though they were both Mohe people, they only had similar names.
Spring is almost over, and most of the ice on the lower tributaries of the Ussuri River has melted. As a tribe that engages in both fishing, hunting, and nomadic herding, the Fu Ni tribe will naturally not miss the opportunity to fish on the river.
At this time, the Wusuli River area, thousands of miles away from Fangyuan, was sparsely populated, resulting in a large number of various animals. There were yellow sheep, bison, wild horses, and deer all over the mountains and plains. If you just go out, you will have a lot of harvest, tigers, bears,
There are more than 150 species of wild boar, roe deer, raccoon dog, mink, etc., and it is rich in mink, fox, lynx, muskrat, etc. skins.
In the spring, wild beasts that have been hungry all winter come out of their nests one after another, eager to hunt and fill their stomachs. The same is true for the Fu Ni tribe. Tens of thousands of families have multiplied throughout the lower reaches of the Ussuri River, forming hundreds of large and small tribes.
tribe.
As a people of fishing and hunting, in addition to hunting wild animals, there are also a large number of fish and shrimps in the river, which are their main food. They also graze cattle, sheep, deer, etc. The green grass under the snow and water is the most delicious.
, which can replenish fat for livestock that have endured a long winter.
Saharanti slid a wooden barrel and a fishing net to the river full of broken ice. He was only fifteen years old today, but he was already the head of the family. There were many younger brothers and sisters in the family. There was not enough food in winter and they were hungry.
He was so panicked that his parents went to herd cattle and they couldn't be too far away from home, so he had no choice but to come here to fish.
He threw the fishing net directly into the river without even looking at it, then pulled it up with both arms, and several big fish were caught in the net. He was surrounded by men of all sizes, all fishing.
There were five or six fish in a bucket, and he was ready to go home. Over the years, there were more and more fish in the tribe, and the fish were getting smaller and smaller. If he continued to catch them, there might not be enough to eat next year. He knew that he should only stop when it was appropriate.
reason.
I heard that there is a large lake to the south, where the main Khan of the Fu Ni tribe is located. There is abundant water and grass there, and there are flocks of sheep and horses. Although they are also one of the Fu Ni tribe, they are only on the periphery. The tribe is called the Uda tribe, and there are only five hundred
Many accounts.
"Sahanen, look, is there someone coming over there?" At this time, the companions on the side quickly threw away the fish in their hands and shouted loudly. Then, a sharp whistle sounded, and the adults of the tribe came out on horseback.
, hundreds of strong dogs kept barking.
"These people are not familiar to us!" The barking of the dog reminded the Uda tribe that these people were not familiar tribesmen and were probably enemies.
With great vigilance, all the men rode on horses and formed a group, surrounding the women and children of the tribe behind them.
As time passed, a group of people appeared in front of them. They were dressed in unusual clothes and looked like Bohai people.
The men's faces were full of doubts, and they sent an old man who often went to Fucheng to negotiate with this group of strangers.
The old man, wearing a half-worn sheepskin coat and the unique pigtails of the Mohe people, rode a horse and came tremblingly to the group of Bohai people. He said in Bohai dialect: "I don't know why you came to our Wuda tribe.
, the day of paying taxes hasn’t come yet!”
"We are not Bohai people, we are businessmen, and we have brought a lot of salt and iron pots!" Chen Bing glanced at the old man, squinted his eyes, and directed a Bohai person next to him to go and talk.
Afraid that he wouldn't believe it, Chen Bing threw out several bags of salt and several iron pots, leaving the old man stunned.
After confirming the salt and iron pot, the old man became energetic. His beard was trembling, and he said in disbelief: "Wait a moment, I'll let our leader come out!"
Afterwards, the old man went back and chatted loudly, then pointed at Chen Bing and the others. Most of the hostility of the group of men was instantly eliminated, and then a man wearing a bearskin coat and a mink hat came over, full of enthusiasm.
After a conversation, Chen Bing and his party saw the appearance of these people: most of them were wrapped in bloated deerskin robes and wore thick deerskin hats. Their broad faces were red and chapped, and their eyes were fierce and decisive.
The people were holding sharpened wooden sticks, bows and arrows, and the arrowheads were mostly made of bone or stone. "I wonder where you come from?" the leader asked after entering the camp.
"We are from the south of Bohai State and are Tang people." Chen Bing said.
After hearing the word Tang people, the leader was surprised and a little unbelievable: "Are they from Tian Khan?"
"Yes!" Chen Bing was a little confused, but still nodded.
Immediately, the leader was overjoyed and left in a hurry. He rummaged through the cabinets and took out a wooden box wrapped in deerskin. Chen Bing was a little confused and opened it with the leader's expectant eyes. Inside was a yellow silk box.
, dilapidated, with the seal under the Zhongshu Gate vaguely visible, as well as the words Yuanhe 3rd Year, the largest boldface characters: Hereditary Governor of a certain state under the Heishui Governor's Mansion.
The Blackwater Governor's Mansion was abolished in the 10th year of Yuanhe (815 AD), the reign of Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty. I didn't expect to see it still here.
Chen Bing was filled with emotions for a while, and he had some affection for this guy with a big face and thick arms. Of course, it was not ruled out that this guy wanted to get involved in his relationship.
Well, seeing the cunning look in this guy's eyes, he knew the result in his heart.
