If we look at it from before the Ming Dynasty, the most glorious period of the Jurchen tribe was in 1115, when Wanyan Aguda unified the Jurchen tribes, expelled the Khitan rule, and established the Jin Dynasty. The country was named "Dajin".

After the fall of the Jin Dynasty, the Jurchens became the ruled ethnic group of the Mongol Khanate. After Kublai Khan established the Yuan Dynasty, the Jurchens came under the jurisdiction of the Yuan Dynasty. In the early Ming Dynasty, the Jurchens were divided into Jianzhou Jurchens, Haixi Jurchens and Donghai Jurchens. There are three types of Jurchens: Jianzhou Jurchens are distributed in Mudanjiang, Suifenhe and Changbai Mountain areas, Haixi Jurchens are distributed in the Songhua River Basin, and East China Sea Jurchens are distributed in Heilongjiang and Ussuri River coasts.

In the first year of Yongle, the Ming government officially established the Jianzhou Guard here, and appointed the leader of the department, Aha Chu. The Ming court named Li Chengshan ("Records of the Li Dynasty" was written by Xu Chu) as the commander. In the seventh year of Zhengtong, the Ming Dynasty The government also separated the Jianzhou right guard from the Jianzhou left guard. Dong Shan, the son of Meng's brother Timur, was in charge of the left guard, and Fancha, the half-brother of Meng's brother Timur, was in charge of the right guard. The three guards of Jianzhou were thus formed.

However, the Jurchens were greedy and cunning. During the Chenghua period, under the leadership of Dong Shan, the Jianzhou Left Guards were forced by the pressure of economic life. Dong Shan led his troops to repeatedly commit border plunder and became a serious problem for the Ming Dynasty in Liaodong. Dong Shan and others His rebellious behavior angered the Ming Dynasty. In the third year of Chenghua, Zhu Jianshen sent General Zhao Fu to lead an army of 50,000, and divided the troops into three groups to suppress the Jurchens in Jianzhou. At the same time, he ordered the Li Dynasty to send troops to fully cooperate with the Ming army in the suppression. In this historically known battle of Chenghua, the Jurchens in Jianzhou suffered a devastating disaster. The old Jianzhou camp of the left guard was burned to the ground, with no reed houses left, and the corpses of the tribe were scattered everywhere. The right guard also suffered heavy losses, and Shi It is called "Plowing the Courtyard and Sweeping the Holes."

After two "digging holes and sweeping holes", the Jianzhou Jurchen tribe suffered a huge disaster. After that, the Jianzhou Jurchen tribe had to stop the war with the Ming Dynasty. In the first year of Hongzhi, the leader of the Jianzhou Jurchen tribe is Toluo. After years of enduring humiliation and hardship, they once again accepted the canonization of the Ming Dynasty, conducted trade with the Ming Dynasty, and vigorously imported cattle and farm tools to develop agricultural production, and gradually rose again.

Jianzhou Zuowei, inside the Jurchen Grassland tent in Jianzhou.

"Chief, the Juerlangs just came to report that in a few days the Li Dynasty will pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty. What should we do? Should we take action?"

Tuoluo, the leader of the Jianzhou Jurchen tribe, was wiping his saber at this time, bowing his head and saying nothing.

For him, both the Li Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty were enemies with whom he had some blood-and-blood feud. However, a skinny camel was bigger than a horse, and Tuoluo did not dare to provoke the Ming Dynasty. Twenty years ago, his father provoked the Ming Dynasty again and again and invaded the Ming Dynasty's borders. , and was annihilated by the Manchus.

"Father, we can take action. The Ming Dynasty has nothing to fear, they just bully the weak and fear the strong. Let's show them some color!" Toluo's son Tuoyuanbao shouted, waving his fist.

Sure enough, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. His son, who has never seen the fighting power of the Ming army, is full of energy at this moment. Tuoluo glanced at his son and still sharpened his sword without saying a word.

"We can't fight. We have just recovered our strength for a few years. How can we provoke the powerful Ming Kingdom again? It is not only the steel sword that can kill the Ming Kingdom, but also time and patience." The person who spoke was Tuo Yuanbao. Uncle Han'erbo, he is strategic, calm and steady, and is Tuoluo's right-hand man.

"Are you scared? Uncle Han'er, how come you used to be as courageous as a tiger or a wolf, but now you are as courageous as a sheep!" Bai Yi, the general of Toluo, finished his words, causing everyone to burst into laughter.

Hearing Bai Yi say that he was timid, Han Erbo blushed and shouted: "Ba Yi, you fart! Am I Han Er Bo the kind of person who is afraid of death? Even if a steel knife is placed on my neck, I Han Er Bo will

If Boruo blinks, he is not a descendant of Timur, the fierce brother!"

Seeing the crowd starting to make noise, Tuoluo finally spoke: "Twenty years ago, the Ming people joined forces with Li Chaojin to suppress us, reducing our old camp to ashes, and taking away our cattle, sheep, camels, and horses, leaving us with nothing but

There is no companion except the shadow, and there is no whip except the horse's tail! How could we Jurchens forget this kind of deep hatred? You are right, Tuoyuanbao. As the leader of the Jianzhou Jurchens, my father should shoulder his responsibilities and give clear instructions to the Jurchens.

The country has some colors!”

"Chief, we should have beaten you a long time ago. As long as we scare the Ming Dynasty from beating us, they will not dare to enslave us again!"

"We must fight, but we can't do it rashly. Uncle Han'er is right, we need time and patience! Uncle Han'er, tell us what you think!" Tuoluo knew that his younger brother was very resourceful.

Whenever you make important decisions, you should consult him.

Han'erbo thought for a while, took a sip of kumiss and said: "The reason why we Jurchens are so weak now is because we are not united. The Haixi Jurchens, Hada tribe, are a lackey of the Ming Dynasty, and Ula tribe, Ye

The He tribe and the Huifa tribe are also the dogs of the Hada tribe who are greedy for life and afraid of death. In this case, we might as well plunder the items that the Li Dynasty paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty, and then blame the Hada tribe. Let the Ming emperor vent his anger on the Hada tribe.

, as long as the Hada tribe is weakened, we will have the opportunity to annex them and unify the Jurchens!"

Tuoluo was overjoyed after hearing this. He immediately stood up and raised his saber high and said: "As Uncle Han did, Bayi, send a few more men to find out the tribute route of the Li Dynasty, kill them all, and plunder the items. If

When the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty comes to investigate, we will blame the Hada tribe!"

At this time, a Jurchen detective came running in: "Chief, our people are here to report from Liaoyang. The governor of Liaodong will be replaced recently. Ma Wensheng has recently started to organize things and prepare to get up."

"Oh?" All the Jurchen generals' eyes lit up.

"Hahaha, a God-given opportunity! As soon as Ma Wensheng leaves, we can not only rob the Li Dynasty's tribute to the Ming Dynasty emperor, but also take the opportunity to plunder Liaodong. It just so happened that I was thinking about the women of the Ming Dynasty."

As soon as Bai Yi finished speaking, everyone burst out laughing again. Tuoluo's eyes instantly became greedy. Ma Wensheng had always been in charge of Liaodong before, and they did not dare to act rashly. Now that Ma Wensheng is leaving, this is a great opportunity.

"We still can't take it lightly. The Ming Dynasty is powerful and has a large number of people. We must not fight head-on! Remember, every time we go out to rob, we must clean up and never leave a single person alive! In this way, the Ming Dynasty will not know who did it.

Yes, he has no place to get angry." Tuo Luo said.

Han Erbo then added: "To deal with the Ming Dynasty, we must always implement guerrilla tactics and maximize the mobility of our cavalry. When they come, we will flee back to the mountains and forests. When they leave, we will come out to harass them again!"

Tuo Yuanbao obviously disagreed with what his uncle said and tilted his head, Ming people always stay in the city, can they beat us with their sabers on horseback?"

Outside the tent, Tuoluo drew his saber and led the Jianzhou Jurchens to swear an oath: "I, Tuoluo, swear to my Jurchen ancestors, to my father who was killed by the Ming Dynasty and the Li Dynasty, and to the spirits of the Jianzhou Jurchen warriors in heaven. In order to avenge my shame, I Jianzhou Jurchens swear an oath."

The Jurchens of the state want to plunder all the items that the Li Dynasty paid tribute to the Ming Dynasty emperor. I established the Jurchens of the state and the Ming Dynasty, and the Li Dynasty vowed to be incompatible. I want to take back all the women of the Ming Dynasty and make them wives, concubines, and slaves.

, as a servant, I want to kill every Ming Dynasty man and Li Dynasty man I meet!"

—————————————

The Li Dynasty was the last unified feudal dynasty in the history of the peninsula. After Li Chenggui replaced Goryeo and founded the country in 1392, he began to pay tribute to the Chinese court. From Taizong Li Fangyuan to Gaozong Li Xi, kings of all dynasties accepted the canonization of the Chinese emperor; they also paid tribute to Japan and other neighboring countries.

Countries or tribes adopt neighbor policies.

The political system, local and military systems of the Li Dynasty were all modeled after the Ming Dynasty, and even the country's laws were directly based on the "Ming Dynasty Law".

The Li Dynasty pays tribute every year, and naturally there are beautiful women among the tributes. All this is because after Ming Taizu Zhu Chongba came to the throne, the local women were tired of seeing them and wanted to change their taste. So he fell in love with the beautiful Korean women. My eldest brother thought

If you want, how can you not give it to me? So I often pay tribute to women to Zhu Ba.

In the late Ming Dynasty, the Ming Emperor even sent officials to the Li Dynasty to select concubines. The Li Dynasty later promulgated a law that strictly prohibited the marriage of beautiful Goryeo women. Everything must be based on the Ming Dynasty's selection of concubines. Of course, this

For them, it is not a shame, but a great honor. Because once a girl from any family is selected by the Ming Emperor, her official career will be smooth. So when they raise their daughters, they all train them to the Ming Emperor's preference, and they all rush to have them.

This opportunity to climb the dragon and the phoenix.

No, the new emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Youtang, came to the throne, and it was still the first year of the Yuan Dynasty. As the loyal younger brother of the Ming Dynasty, Li Chao naturally had to pay tribute to beautiful women. And this was the first year of tribute to the new emperor, and it was even more careless. Li Chao

After a year-long national beauty contest, a stunning beauty was finally selected to pay tribute to Zhu Youtang.

In history, Zhu Youtang may not have wanted the beauties that the Li Dynasty paid tribute to, practiced monogamy, and only doted on Queen Zhang. But the current Zhu Youtang came from a soul from a later generation, and for Li Dynasty's kind of tribute,

He couldn't ask for anything the beautiful woman did.

Both the Ming Dynasty and the Li Dynasty paid great attention to this tribute. In addition to paying tribute to beautiful women, the Li Dynasty also had carefully selected war horses.

"Brother Cheliang, which way did Li Chao take this tribute?"

Looking at his Jurchen brother, Che Liang smiled and said: "Borta, why do you ask this?"

"I heard that the Li Dynasty's tribute this time included not only rare treasures but also war horses. The most important thing is that I heard that there was also a beauty carefully selected from all over the country!" Bolt whispered.

"Hush! I don't want to kill you, you cheap slave. If I hadn't seen you and me for so many years, I would have killed you! That beauty was offered to the emperor, so stop using your evil thoughts!" Che Liang yelled.

Borta nodded repeatedly: "Brother Che, you and I have been dating for so many years, am I that kind of person? I'm just curious, just asking you!"

Che Liang thought for a moment and realized that Borta had indeed been loyal since he surrendered, so there was no harm in telling him. Then he said:

"I heard that the Li Dynasty's tribute route this time is from Dandong to Gaizhou and Guangning, and there are many tribute items. It can be regarded as the Li Dynasty's filial piety!"

Borta quickly turned his mind and wrote these down silently.
