Chapter 691: Singing echoes on both sides of the Hami River
It has been almost a month since the Northern Navy laid down the entire East Xinjiang Road. After Liu Sheng and Fan Tong arrived in the ancient city area with the large army, they set up their headquarters in Qitai. The four regiments of the cavalry brigade were split into two parts, respectively.
Stationed in Huining City and Hami in Zhenxi Prefecture. Since Zhenxi Prefecture and Hami are both Manchu and Han, the Manhui dual-city setup actually means that one regiment manages one city.
The work of taking over every time a city is captured is complicated and trivial, and the Northern Navy Staff even compiled a special manual.
To put it simply, the basic procedure after entering the city is nothing more than to quickly take over the granary, bank warehouse and cabinet warehouse, and at the same time issue a notice to calm the people, put up a sign to establish a military control committee, and stabilize the economic and living order of the people inside and outside the city. In addition, according to the roster,
, conduct preliminary personnel screening of captured and surrendered Qing troops and government officials.
The Qing troops who had completed the inspections in batches could not let them idle, otherwise they would be prone to fights and troubles, so building roads and organizing barracks became inevitable choices. Anyway, the traffic conditions under the Manchu rule in these years were the same, even if
That's just the way it is in Beijing; the loess paved roads day after day make it muddy when it rains and snows, and when it dries out, it turns into dust.
Just the widening and hardening of roads in the city can take several months, not to mention other urban improvements such as sewers, public toilets, and tree planting. With things to do, and the timely distribution of rations and even salaries, prisoners and
The mood of surrendering will soon stabilize, and at least the family members will not have to go hungry.
Xinjiang East Road is not like Guan Nei. Although it is vast in area, it has six cities in total. In addition, there are Kai'an City and Mulei City, which are military fortresses. The Western Front Command has already prepared sufficient manpower, so everything is carried out in an orderly manner.
stand up.
During this period of time, the Beihai Navy did not have much contact with the local people. Liu Sheng and Fan Tong also issued a special order strictly prohibiting the Beihai Navy's troops from entering the mosque, not urinating next to the mosque, and not in the military camp.
Eating pork products from other places, etc.
Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty implemented a policy of segregating Han and Hui people in Xinjiang to prevent ethnic minorities from sinicizing, most of the people did not understand Chinese and everyone lived in their own way. Their tribute and service targets were only for the Hui kings.
Considering the language communication barrier, Fan Tong asked the military control committees of the three places to convene the mullahs from surrounding villages to appease these people and promote the relevant policies of the North Navy with "equality and unity" as the core. In addition, each village also distributed two thousand kilograms of
Food for winter.
This move of the Northern Navy surprised the mullahs. Although they did not know much about the origin of this "rebel" and everything remains to be seen, it is still good to have food in the winter, and it can be brought back to the village.
Gain a wave of popularity.
While the Military Control Commission is busy stabilizing the local situation, the Northern Navy troops stationed in various cities are also busy from morning to night, especially the officers at the company and platoon level. In addition to maintaining public order and conducting daily training, they also have to go to school every night.
Hours of local language classes. The person in charge of the local language classes was Bi Tie Shi, who had served as a "general affairs officer" in the minister's office in various places.
Originally, after the city was broken, these pen-posters hated and feared the Northern Navy. But they soon discovered something that shocked them; that is, there were many former Han soldiers in the Northern Navy.
The soldiers of the Eight Banners of Manchuria and Mongolia, not to mention the commander and deputy commander of the cavalry brigade, were all armored soldiers of the Eight Banners of Manchuria.
This damn thing is so subversive! It still hurts when I pinch my thigh, I’m not dreaming!
The salary offered by the Military Control Commission to these "teachers" is 10 Beihai silver dollars per month, plus 120 kilograms of highland barley noodles or barley. If they do well, they will not only become official members of the Military Control Commission, but each family will also receive fifty
acres of land.
The reason why such good conditions are given is mainly because these Bi Tieshi are the people who know the following situation best. Since most of them are proficient in Chinese, Manchu, Mongolian, and Uyghur languages, what they do every day is to issue orders and convey sentiments to the superiors.
Affairs can directly affect the decisions of ministers in various places.
Of course, when these people were under the rule of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, they often colluded with Taiji and Burke, who were in charge of Uyghur civil affairs, to deceive superiors and subordinates, and oppressed the people. Therefore, before appointing them, they must be given a warning to let them know.
They knew that if they continued to accept bribes and oppress the people, they would go to build roads with the prisoners, or be sent to Siberia.
It's hard to say whether this conversation "touched the depths of the soul". Anyway, all the commentators were so excited that their minds were buzzing and their hearts were beating with fear.
The matter of letting the officers and soldiers of the troops entering Xinjiang master the local language had already been decided when Liu Sheng and Fan Tong formulated the combat plan. Fan Tong also issued a mobilization order in the name of the Political Department for this purpose, and even sent another
The "moving flag" system in the time and space was also moved over. Officers who did not learn well were directly reported and criticized.
You have to know the language barrier. Let alone mobilize the local people, the Beihai navy can't even hold various meetings. You can spit and talk impassionedly on the stage for a long time without knowing what you are talking about. Even if the warehouse is opened, no one comes to collect it.
.
Furthermore, in another time and space, the Manchu and Qing Dynasties' experiences in governing the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains have proven that simply forcing the locals to learn Chinese while the Han people do not learn the local language can only deepen the gap between the two sides.
In the history of another time and space, starting from the late Tongzhi period, the Qing government vigorously promoted Confucianism, set up private schools, and promoted education in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains for more than 20 years. Although it enhanced cultural dissemination to a certain extent, in the end
The main contribution is to create a large number of translators. The people still have no food to eat and continue to live in darkness and poverty.
Those who were forced to go to the kindergarten even shouted "Hu Da Hu Da, why did you torture me!"
In fact, the key reason why Confucian education and imperial examinations are difficult to implement in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains is that traditional scripture education has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and ethnic minorities have inner resistance to Confucian education.
See it."
You say that he is illiterate, and others say that I typed the palindromic alphabet of "Alib" in elementary school; you told him about the vast history of China, and others said that I have a "Tuolike" that specifically talks about the history of the Western Regions; you say that you want to learn Confucian classics.
, people say that I have "Kuluan". In addition, the medical book has "Tipu Chitapu", the agricultural book has "Lisala"; the yin and yang divination has "Rusnamer"...
In short, because the Western Regions are located on the Silk Road, they have been influenced by Eastern and Western cultures for thousands of years. They have learned from each other's strengths and formed their own system. It is absolutely impossible to do it just by relying on the "what is it" of Confucian culture. Only people like Lin Zexu who do practical things can do it.
It will always be praised.
The Beihai navy who came to take the local language class were all instructors and officers at the company and platoon level. For the sake of confidentiality within the military camp, the class was set up in the second hall of the Hami Minister's Office. They studied from six o'clock in the evening to eight o'clock every day.
The specific content includes daily communication conversations, customs and habits of Uyghurs and Kazakhs, diet, taboos in conversation, etc.
After a week, everyone was dizzy with learning. Many people even murmured words like "Aximus", "Rehemite", "Arkham", and "Atam" in their dreams.
. Even when walking in the military camp during the day, you can encounter guys who are mumbling.
The Beihai Navy actually learned Uyghur! This surprised Sadik, who had been receiving treatment at the regimental medical center. However, this also made him more convinced of Yun Yan's words: "Our team is different from all the officers and soldiers."
It is said that after Shadik returned to Hami with Yunyan's team, he first went to the company headquarters to report. When he learned that Yunyan actually made a Uyghur friend, everyone from the company headquarters to the regiment headquarters attached great importance to this, and then the regiment
The best military doctor in the country was called to treat his eyes.
It is said that the North Korean Navy has been established for so many years, but its military medicine is still in its infancy. At present, most military doctors in various units are actually at the level of ordinary battlefield lifeguards. They usually undergo a one-year intensive training, and the main teaching content is
It is based on the "Barefoot Doctor's Manual" jointly revised by Hong Tao and Wu Xianhou, basically from head to toe, from internal medicine to surgery, from traditional Chinese medicine to western medicine. Anyway, as long as you are brave, there is no disease that you dare not treat.
After examination, the military doctor found that Shadik was not completely blind in both eyes, and that he still had a little weak vision in his left eye. Since the military doctor often treated herders when he was in Khovd, and had seen a lot of various eye diseases, he judged that Shadik was not completely blind.
Dick's condition was caused by optic nerve atrophy and blindness caused by being locked in a dark room environment in a dungeon for a long time.
Unfortunately, nerve tissue cannot be regenerated. Once damaged, it cannot be repaired. Currently, the only treatment is to use eye drops to increase the outflow of aqueous humor and reduce intraocular pressure. Considering that eye drops have side effects, they may even affect some people.
Some people had allergic reactions and needed to be monitored at all times, so Sadik had to stay in the medical center.
After two weeks of treatment with traditional Chinese medicine and eye drops, the condition of Sadik's left eye has improved, and he can already see blurry figures. This makes him very excited, and he is filled with endless joy and gratitude.
.
However, after another week, the military doctor's frustrating discovery was limited to this. He originally wanted to send a telegram to Beihai Town Central Hospital and ask Wu Xianhou for advice, but Sadik could not wait any longer and insisted on returning to his hometown.
have a look.
In desperation, Yunyan and the others had no choice but to accompany Sadik to the village of Altonluck, a few miles northwest of the palace.
As soon as he entered the village, Sadik knelt down excitedly on the ground, kissed the land, then held up his hands and said to himself: "My God! Fate has arranged for me to travel around, and now I have met a kind person.
I'm back in my hometown. Thank God!"
His actions attracted the attention of a passing villager. She was a Uighur woman who was wearing very thick clothes and covered her face with a cloth. She looked up and down in military uniform with alert and curious eyes.
Yunyan and the others looked at Sodik, who was wearing a new cotton robe.
After looking at it for a moment, the woman's eyes gradually widened with an expression of disbelief. She walked closer and asked in a low voice: "Shadick?"
"Who?"
When the woman saw that the other party had responded, her heart suddenly burst with sadness, and she said tremblingly: "My God! It turns out it's really you!"
Sadik stood up and approached the woman, took a closer look with his left eye, shook his head, sighed and asked: "My eyes are dry, and I can only see a blurry shadow with my left eye. Who are you?"
"Shadik, I am Sharhan, your brother Apiz's Sharhan! You are actually still alive!"
"Sharhan..."
"Do you still remember your brother Apiz? The Revafu you were carrying on your back." The woman hurriedly walked around to take a look behind Sadik, and said in a sure and affirmative tone: "Isn't this what happened after you were released?
A gift from him?"
Sadik was stunned for a moment, then showed an excited expression, grabbed the woman's arm with both hands, and said excitedly: "God bless, is Brother Apiz still alive? How is little Mohetar? He has grown up.
Are you an adult?"
"You haven't forgotten, Sadik!" Shahan wiped away the tears caused by excitement and said with a smile: "They are all safe. Mohtar is strong and strong, and he is already as tall as the wall!"
The woman became excited and kept talking like she was setting off firecrackers. Sodick finally took advantage of her pause to breathe and called Yunyan and others over and introduced each other.
Shahan was very wary of Yunyan and others at first, and her words were cautious. It was not until Sadik told how he met Yunyan and others, and how Beihai Navy treated his eyes, that she felt relieved.
Then she warmly invited everyone to visit her home.
The news that Sodik was still alive spread throughout the village with the woman's loud voice that night. Those who knew him, those who didn't know him, and everyone who had heard of his name came to visit. And with the help of Sodik's translation,
Yunyan and the others quickly became involved with the villagers.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In response to everyone's greetings and inquiries, Shadik plucked the strings and told his story in a low tone about his experiences over the years.
"Soadiq is a homeless man with endless sorrow in his heart. As soon as my mother opened her eyes after giving birth to me, Taiji's prison locked me in. If youth is compared to a flower, the buds of my youth have not bloomed, and the good times have already passed.
The days of slavery are fleeting. The cruel Burke has no heart and sucks all my blood and sweat. The cruel Burke is so cruel. He peels off my skin and uses it as clothes! I work day and night, and the clothes
He couldn't eat a hot meal without covering his body. He met his beloved Laili Guli, but was killed by Taiji on the river bank.
I am alone and wandering, leaving thousands of villages and villages with my footprints. It is pitch black everywhere, and I cannot find a sky for the poor to live in! Bayibok has the same heart, forcing rents and sharing and giving out donations. Mullah Kazim
He is also a wolf in human skin, holding a code in his hand and abusing his power. Bayibok's heart is so vicious, he drinks our blood as tea. Young girls, innocent children, how many lives have been destroyed. Thinking of these hardships and sufferings
, raging anger burned in my chest. The blood feud will not be over until Tai Ji is chopped into meat paste!"
There was no end to Shadik's songs. The more he played the Rewafqin, the sadder and more indignant he became, and he continued to play and sing until late at night. Although it was cold outside, it didn't take long for the house, yard, and even the doorway of the Apiz family to be full of people.
The place was full of people.
Some people kept shaking their heads and sighing, some people were holding their anger and unwillingness tightly in their weak fists; however, there were also people who were breathing rapidly, trembling all over, and blood was beating in their skin-to-bone chests.
swing.
Until the end, Sadik sang: "The oriole that has not experienced the harsh winter will not know the brightness of spring; if there is anyone else who can help us escape from the sea of suffering, it is only the army that crossed the Tengger Mountains. Hu Da is really weird
, created angels and created devils. Listen attentively, everyone, may my song be given wings and spread along the Hami River throughout thousands of mountains and rivers."
To the surprise of everyone present, this folk song spread throughout the villages around Huicheng in just a few days. After hearing this, countless Uyghur people were filled with indignation, and at the same time they were curious and confused.
The eyes turned to the North Korean Navy. Everyone was thinking, can this army really bring us out of the sea of suffering?
The pyre is ready to light up a blazing fire, the only thing missing is a flame.
