Just as Zhu Hongsan's sons were fighting for power and profit, far away from the extreme north of Beijing, three thousand miles away, in the Erguna River Basin, Tao Li, a young Ewenki native, was hunting in the forests of the Greater Xing'an Mountains.

Tao Li is only fourteen years old this year, but he is already an adult among the Ewenki people with a general life span of 35 years. Although Tao Li is short, he is an excellent hunter. Today his task is to fight enough ten rabbits so that his mother and sister at home can avoid starving.

In the later years, some people can probably think of this word as an administrative division in China, referring to a large area of ​​land unexpectedly in Shanhaiguan. However, the word Northeast appeared very early and was first published in "Zhou Li·Zhi Fang Family", but it appeared in the official national documents in the Yuan Dynasty. The Yuan Dynasty's "Da Yuan Yitong Zhi" said: "Kaiyuan Road, the Changbai Mountain in the south, the sea of ​​Jingchuan in the north, the home country of the three capitals, the old city of the five countries, and the city of the northeast." At this time, the Northeast officially became a geographical noun.

The Ming Dynasty inherited the Yuan Dynasty. After Zhu Yuanzhang founded, most of the former officials of the Yuan Dynasty in the Nuergan area in the lower reaches of Heilongjiang surrendered to the Ming government. In the ninth year of Yongle, the usurped emperor Zhu Di gave a powerful name for the entire northeast region. The Nuergandusi was the highest local administrative agency in the north of Liaodong, Heilongjiang, and Ussuri River basins.

The Nuergandushi has a large area of ​​jurisdiction, including Sakhalin Island, Onon River, Outer Xing'an Mountains, and later Russian Far East. There are Mongolian, Jurchens, Jiri Mi, Kuyi, Daur and other peoples, and most of them make a living by fishing and hunting.

The jurisdiction was divided into garrisons. The Ming government also appointed leaders of various ethnic groups to take charge of each garrison, and gave seals, and continued their customs and unified their belongings to pay tribute to the times. The tributes included local special products such as Haidongqing, marten, and horses, which were equivalent to taxes in the mainland.

On the basis of the post station in the Yuan Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty government restored the post channel from Nuergan to the mainland, strengthened the political ties between Nuergan and the Ming court, economic exchanges and friendly relations between people of all ethnic groups, and promoted the development of local social and economics.

However, the Nuergandusi only existed for twenty-five years. After Zhu Di's death, his successors, Ming Renzong Zhu Gaochi, and Ming Xuanzong Zhu Zhanji, abolished the Nuergandusi and moved the capital to Kaiyuan City, Liaoning Province, which was later in life. After the country's regular troops were withdrawn, the Northeast region was transferred to the Jurchen tribes. In this way, the Ming Dynasty gave up the Northeast region to the Jurchen tribes, laying the groundwork for its future demise.

Of course, as the emperor, Zhu Zhanji could not know that the Ming Dynasty was finally destroyed by the Jurchens. According to the domestic and foreign conditions at that time, it was the best strategy to give up Nuergandusi. The Northeast was a bitter and cold place with a sparse population and a scarce resource. It was completely useless for the Central Plains dynasty. This area could not bring benefits to the development of the country, but also sent troops to guard it, wasting a lot of financial and material resources.

At this time, the remnants of the Yuan Dynasty had no time to invade the Ming Dynasty due to internal strife and struggle. Therefore, Zhu Zhanji believed that the Nuergandusi, which aimed at military purposes, lost its meaning when there was no war. The most important point was that Zhu Zhanji believed that he should recuperate and no longer continue to develop the expansion career of Ming Chengzu, and gave up some waste of money. Under this idea, Zhu Zhanji first gave up Annan and finally gave up Nuergandusi.

Of course, the Ming Dynasty gave the vast area of ​​Northeast China to the Jurchens, which was the division and disintegration and dilemma that the Han people were good at. Under the division of the Ming Dynasty, the Jurchens were divided into three major parts: Jianzhou Jurchens, Haixi Jurchens, and East China Sea Jurchens in the early Ming Dynasty, and later divided into four major parts: Jianzhou, Changbai, Donghai, and Hulun according to their regions.

These tribes do not talk about the same language and race as everyone is close to each other, but attack each other, and often make people think about it for a little bit of land and population. Of course, during this period, the instigation of the Ming Dynasty officials among several major tribes also played an important role.

The Han people were having fun among the Jurchens, and they forgot the saying that Feng Shui took turns. After hundreds of years of unlucky, a hero-like figure finally appeared, which was Nurhaci.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty encountered internal and external troubles. The Japanese invaded Korea from abroad, and the Mongols were ready to move in Ningxia. The ethnic minorities of Yunnan and Guizhou rebelled within the country. These various conditions exhausted the Ming Dynasty's financial resources and energy, so the appearance of Nurhaci was both inevitable and accidental.

Next was the normal routine of a dynasty destruction. Li Zicheng and others rebelled in the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming army was busy exterminating the bandits. At this time, the country encountered Zhu Youjian, who claimed to be a wise ruler, and ruined the last hope of turning the Ming Dynasty overturning the battle. Nurhaci, who was far away from the pass, was already dead, but he did not expect that the successor was Huang Taiji, who was better than the old slave. In this way, the huge and unshakable Ming Dynasty in front of the Jurchens was destroyed.

However, in this time and space, Zhu Hongsan, a fat butterfly, appeared, defeated the Qing Dynasty in more than ten years and occupied the Northeast again.

As a time traveler in later generations, Zhu Hongsan naturally knew the importance of the Northeast to the empire. Not to mention other wood, coal mines and other resources, the oil field under the Songnen Plain was enough for Zhu Hongsan to fight anyone desperately.

Therefore, after Zhu Hongsan occupied Beijing, he immediately sent Zhao Guodong to lead elite soldiers and generals to the north to Shanhaiguan to restore the Ming Dynasty's rule over Liaodong.

In addition to these, the entire Northeast was independent and the governor's district was established. In the past, Liaodong was not an independent administrative unit, and the entire Liaodong Peninsula was managed by the Shandong Provincial Administration. Now Zhu Hongsan divides the entire Northeast into three provinces. Originally, Liaodong was divided into Liaoning Province, with its capital in Shenyang. Jilin Province north of Liaoning, and its capital in Jilin City on the Songhua River. The northernmost point is Heilongjiang Province and its capital in Trin City at the mouth of Heilongjiang.

The Northeast is very vast and road traffic is very inconvenient, but the developed water system in the Northeast has become the key to rule. The Jilin City and Trin City established by Zhu Hongsan are both at the water transport node. Of course, because the Northeast is vast and sparsely populated, the entire Northeast has only more than 2 million people, and most of them are Han people living in Liaoning. However, Zhu Hongsan is not worried about this. Now that with the artifact of corn and potato, there will never be any food crisis in the Northeast.

In later Qing Dynasty, Chinese people could rely on corn and potatoes to make their population reach 400 million. As a time traveler in later generations, Zhu Hongsan would definitely be better than the manchu wild boar skin.

Zhu Hongsan's rule was arranged along the water system, but the vast mountainous areas such as the Xing'an Mountains were far beyond reach. The Wulitun where Tao Li lived was at the source of the Ergun River and in the Greater Xing'an Mountains. It was far from the control of the Central Plains dynasty, and even Tao Li didn't know that there was a dynasty like the Ming Dynasty in the south with a population of billions.

Tao Li's father is Alin, which means "mountain" in Ewenki language. Alin does not disappoint this name. He is the number one warrior among the Ewenki tribes in the Daxinganling.

However, Tao Li hadn't seen his father for ten years. When Tao Li was four years old, the Jurchens in the south came to the tribe to catch the Jurchens. As the first warrior of the tribe, Alin was captured by the damn Jurchens. I heard that he went to the south to fight for the Jurchens.

Tao Li was young and was not captured at that time, so Tao Li decided to defeat the Jurchens in the future and save his father.

In the past, the Jurchens set up Niulu in Taoli's tribe, responsible for recruiting soldiers and grain, but I don't know what happened. A few years ago, the Jurchens left and heard that they went to the south to fight with people. After the Jurchens left, Taoli's tribe had a lot less burden. In recent years, more than a dozen babies were born in the tribe. It is estimated that a tribe will be able to recover from its anger in more than ten years.

Because all adults in the tribe were captured by the Jurchens and went to the south to fight, a half-baby like Tao Li became the best hunter in the tribe. Tao Li means rabbit in Ewenki language. Of course, this does not mean that Tao Li is timid and cowardly, but praises Tao Li for being as agile as a rabbit.

Tao Li was very lucky today. He beat a roe deer. Tao Li carefully peeled off the roe deer with a bone knife, and then smiled foolishly at the perfect skin. Tao Li has grown up and has officially reached the age of dying spring. Tao Li is attracted to Yinji Khan, the most beautiful girl in the tribe. Yinji Khan means a deer. This girl is like a deer, with big beautiful eyes.

Yinji Khan also liked Tao Li, the first hunter of the tribe, very much, but Yinji Khan's father was a very annoying person. In order to ask for more money, he actually asked Tao Li to take out ten deer skins as dowry to marry Yinji Khan. Ten deer skins are undoubtedly a huge sum of money among the Ewenki tribe who is still in a slave society, but Tao Li could only grit his teeth and accept it in order to marry his sweetheart.

The roe deer I hit today was very big, and just shot an arrow into the eye. The skin was very complete. According to Tao Li's estimate, this should be able to support a deer skin.

Tao Li carefully put away his skin, which was his happiness for the rest of his life. Tao Li looked at the sky and it was already noon. The night in Daxinganling was very cold. Even the native Tao Li was not sure to survive in the wild at night. He should go home now.

Tao Li divided the roe deer meat, put it into his backpack, then brought the six rabbits he had hit, took the bow and arrow to the way home.

Tao Li's tribe was in a valley, and the sun was breeze, which was a perfect camping place. Tao Li walked five miles away from his home and saw smoke rising from cooking. Tao Li couldn't help but feel full of strength. In addition, there was his mother and sister waiting for him at home, and Yin Jihan's beautiful big eyes. Thinking of this, Tao Li began to smile foolishly again.

Tao Li walked through the forest with a huge backpack on his back and suddenly smelled a burnt smell. Tao Li, as a hunter, was too familiar with this taste. It was the taste of barbecue, but the meat was baked.

Tao Li frowned. The tribe was short of food, so he would definitely not waste food like this. What was it that wasn’t what his tribe did?

Tao Li felt something wrong with his keen nerves. He gently placed his backpack on the ground, picked up the bow and arrow and bone knife and approached the tribe with his hands and feet.
