    Takeuchi Toemon and his son Takeuchi Toemon and their three ships sailed out of the port of Mikuniura Shinho Village and went straight to Gakura Island in Matsumae Town.  Bon wind all the way. Japan is originally very small. Although it is sailing, it does not look like a long voyage. It is like boating in a county town.  That day, they landed on Cangcang Island.  They stayed here for half a month, not because business was good here, but because they were patiently waiting for the weather to improve.  The wind on the sea was so strong those days that they did not dare to leave.  However, it is also thanks to the strong wind.  Without this strong wind, they would not have been blown to a place they never dared to dream of, nor would they have had adventures that they could brag about for decades, nor would they have had food that could feed generations of people.  of wealth.  The strong wind finally stopped, and Takeuchi Toemon led the team to Sado Island.  I wanted to go forward, but the wind picked up again.  This time it was more severe, with strong winds blowing for more than 20 days.  They waited painfully, and on the afternoon of May 15, their ship cautiously sailed out of the port.  Takeuchi Toemon said to everyone: "It's finally good, this time it was so bad. Tonight, we can drink some wine with confidence." So, except the helmsman, everyone drank sake to their heart's content that night. However, that day,  The wind got stronger during the night.  It was too big to figure out, so the helmsman had to give up the fight and drift downwind.  Takeuchi Toemon said to him: "Yes, don't twist it, just let nature take its course." None of them thought that God played a huge joke on them and let the wind blow them to Heilongjiang.  That will be 16 days later.  That morning, when they opened their eyes, they saw the coast with high mountains.  They later learned that this was the north of the Tumen River estuary.  They didn't dare to go ashore and just circled around in that water area, preparing to return home.  At this time, he knew that he was abroad.  However, the wind was still very strong and their boat could not move at all.  In this way, they drifted another fifty nautical miles to the west.  They sighted the shore again, but just then the ship ran aground.  Suddenly, more than 60 single-person boats rowed toward them quickly, shouting.  They didn't know that they had arrived at the Warkha tribe of the Qing Dynasty, which was the bravest tribe.  They were captured.  On the first day, Takeuchi Toemon deceived people and asked them where ginseng was produced.  The people of the Warkha tribe believed it and personally led them to the mountains to dig ginseng.  However, the next day, the Warkha people discovered that something was wrong with them. Why do you people come to us to dig ginseng?  Lock him up first and then talk!  This level will last more than half a year!  It¡¯s not that the Warkha people are very hospitable, it¡¯s just that at this time, my main energy in the Qing Dynasty is to enter the customs, fight in Shanhaiguan, fight in Tongguan, and carry out the popular house grabbing, money grabbing and bitch grabbing in Beijing.  How can Zi and other "Five Sons Admission" activities care about the affairs of several Japanese pirates and merchants in the bitter cold land of Liaodong's far north?  Having no choice but to hold their noses, the Varkha people use their precious food to feed these dozens of people!  On the contrary, Takeuchi Toemon and his son got what they wanted. They had three meals a day, including white rice, broth, and vegetables.  (This is also something that must be done to save face. If these people are starved, they will be sent back to Shengjing. It will not look good on the adults!) After eating, I just wander around. Although I can¡¯t go far, the endless wilderness  The wasteland really shocked both father and son.  Only then did we understand why the Varkha people allowed them to go out.  In a place like this, there is no food, clothing, or horses. If you run away recklessly, you are just waiting to become food for the tigers and wolves in the mountains and forests!  Finally, the general manager who stayed in Shengjing arrived.  After countless quarrels and abuses, in the end, the emperor's father and regent Dorgon gave this extremely important position, and of course, a less lucrative job, to He Luo, who had recently surrendered to him, and asked him to guard his home for the Qing Dynasty.  .  After taking office, General Manager He delayed for a long time before sending an order asking the Varkha people to escort the Japanese to Shengjing.  With an extremely devout religious mentality, the Varkha people escorted these dozens of extremely edible Japanese dwarves on the road with the mentality of sending off the plague god.  (There is nothing you can do about it. Although there is no shortage of rice in Japan, you have to use your own Tongbao to exchange for it, right? There is free white rice, why don¡¯t you open it and eat it?) I don¡¯t want to be with Nanyue while being escorted.  The soldiers and horses of the army heading south met each other!  After listening to Takeuchi and his son describing their experiences over the past year in half-baked Nanzhong Mandarin, and presenting their rafting diary written in birch bark, Mai Yunmin immediately had an idea.  I just don¡¯t know which one to fight first when heading south!  Now this Japanese dwarf happens to be the leader!  Then he first ordered the soldiers on the left to go to the mouth of the Tumen River, wash out the Navarka tribe, and control the mouth of the Tumen River.  Then head south again!  The Warkha people never dreamed that they had fed dozens of Japanese dwarf captives for more than a year with good white rice, and in the blink of an eye they became their seductresses.  The reason is also very simple, "You Japanese people are vassals of our Southern Guangdong Army, so naturally you are in my home."Under the protection of public law.  Now that you are captured by the slaves, you have to look at the master to beat the dog. How can you let people like this from the enemy country let you go?  " After a brief discussion with Bomu Bogor, Mai Yunmin decided to allocate a thousand troops from his own army to strengthen the left army, and Lin Jun would bring them back. For the Val in the Tumen River Basin  The Ka people attacked the village. "After capturing a village, a village was built to facilitate defense.  From now until the spring thaw next year, it is our time to attack the traitors!  " Things in the east were decided like this. The Left Route Army was very happy to finally find a target to fight. Bomubogor was also very happy. Those captured villages, hunting grounds, land, woods, and people must all be returned.  He managed. ¡°We will camp here tonight and wait for news from the west.  "Mai Yunmin is very sure to wait for news from the Right Army. If there is not a large-scale attack by the Horqin Mongols over there, it is good news. But, is this really the case? As a tributary of the Lena River, the Danle River  Although the river has been frozen, the banks of the wide Hetao are still densely covered with vegetation and forests, and grassy beaches can be seen from time to time. If it is summer, this is a paradise for birds and animals. In autumn and early winter, the prey harvested here will make Ewenki happy.  People have obtained food and clothing to survive the severe winter. However, this resort with rich water, grass and abundant products has become a place of death. Demons from far away have brought unimaginable death and killing to the bend of the left bank of Danle River.  The simple, civil-structure fortress built high on the river bank had its gates wide open at this time, and black smoke rose up from time to time. Inside, there were fairy pillars and tents built on trees. In addition to the warehouse,  It had been completely burned by a fire. Two tree trunks were nailed into a simple and crude cross, which was erected less than a hundred steps away from the river. The tree trunks were already covered with a thick layer of blood and were buried deep in the river.  At the junction between the tree trunk and the ground in the frozen soil, blood accumulated into a small pool of blood. On the cross, a wooden nail made of a thick branch was nailed to the cross. This man's fur clothes were stripped off and he was very precious.  His hands and feet were tightly tied with thick ropes. Huge wooden nails were driven into his throat, chest and abdomen, and blood flowed down his throat.  Blood was dripping from his body, and his hands and feet were dripping from time to time. This man's eyes were wide open and his body was twisted. After a while, the blood would slowly drain out and die like Brother Su. At this time, the man on the cross was struggling and screaming.  It has basically stopped, and his twisted and stiff face is full of hatred and anger. This man was originally the leader of this small tribe. He originally came to this winter hunting ground to hunt and spend the winter, but he did not want to suffer this unreasonable disaster. "  boom!  "Bang bang!"  ¡± Occasionally, there were a few sounds of gunfire and gunfire in the wilderness around the camp. They were the sound of hunting and killing the fleeing tribesmen. The sound of gunfire came one after another, and the side of the wooden frame was piled with corpses.  Those who were killed by swords and axes, those who were hit by fire and bullets, and there were several immortal pillars that were still smoking, and there was a strong smell of burnt flesh in the ruins.  Silently telling people that this place was occupied and looted, a few blond guys rushed out of the birch forest, with sabers, axes and spears in their hands, constantly used to drive away the Ewenki who were caught by them.  The human whip, ¡°Go!  " This temporary wintering camp is the fourteenth one that these Rakshasa people have conquered. It can be said that they have a good income. Not only are the food supplies for wintering more and more abundant, but there is also a lot of fur and sand gold that can be traded for money and weapons.  Just like the hills, the banks of the Danle River were crowded with captured people from various tribes, as well as countless reindeer, horses, tents, sledges, etc. The area was occupied by the large dogs used to pull the sledges.  The woods. The whips and sabers, and the fear of death, made these Ewenki people kneel on the ground. Both men, women, and children had dull expressions, and there was unconcealable fear and worry in their eyes.  , it will be a long journey of thousands of miles in this winter, along the Danle River to the Lena River, where an unknown fate is waiting for them on the north bank of the Lena River, more than a thousand miles away, in the desolate Far East.  On the land, a Western-style earthen fortress stands abruptly. This is the so-called Ice City Yakutsk. Today, Yakutsk is a beautiful tourist city, but at that time, there were only rivers, wilderness and forests. Instead, it was suddenly.  The fortress that appeared was too abrupt. This castle was re-expanded based on the lessons learned from the attack by Li Peiting and the Sauron troops. In addition to the newly built wood and rammed earth walls, forts, bunkers, and horse-mounted walls were added.  Outside, another city wall was built inside the city, with the same configuration on the inner city wall, and under the inner city wall,The trenches were dug to facilitate the discharge of domestic sewage by the Rakshasa people living in the inner city, and to hinder the attackers.  "Compared with the killings and arson thousands of miles away, which frightened the captive Ewenki people who were watching, here in the outer city, there was a prosperous business and trade scene, with both purchases and sales booming. ? Mountains of furs, vehicles, tents, large groups of horses, reindeer people, etc. are sold on site.  The scene was very lively, with constant shouting and numerous merchants coming and going to select their favorite items.  Here are those Rakshasa people who heard that the far East is full of priceless furs and gold. They rushed to the East to make a fortune. They ranged from regular soldiers, Cossacks, to fugitives, prostitutes, thieves, gangsters, and wanderers.  A place where Han missionaries, prostitutes, and merchants came to trade.  In the market, in addition to the fact that grain cannot be bought and sold and all is collected in official warehouses for unified storage and sale, areas are divided into areas for sale based on horses, furs, honey and other groceries, as well as people, among whom people are further subdivided, such as whether they have skills, whether they are strong, and whether they are strong or not.  Men, women, adults or children, etc.  In front of several categories, their prices are clearly marked, and a wooden sign with the words "Prices are clearly marked, no negotiation. If you like it, buy it, if you don't buy it, leave it."  A pot-bellied businessman with several entourages, one of whom is a Cossack wearing a Chirchis cloak and a saber on his waist, is undoubtedly the most dazzling star in this noisy market.  He collected numerous sable, squirrel, black fox and other furs in one go, as well as hundreds of horses and dozens of carts and sledges.  It seemed that he also wanted to buy some serfs for his farm, so he walked towards the fence where people were sold.  "Sir, don't you want some raw gold? This is the best gold I have. It is at least as heavy as ten lots!" Ten lots, which is equivalent to about 120 grams in the metric system, can be regarded as natural gold nuggets.  It's huge.  Seeing the drunk homeless man take out the gold nugget from his arms, the wealthy businessman was also quite moved.  "How much do you plan to sell it for?" Just as he was about to bargain with the homeless man, the man who looked like a homeless man was roughly pushed aside, "Get out of here and lie to people! Don't hinder me from doing business!" A thick man with a Ukrainian accent said  The man drove the homeless man aside with a stick.  "You damn Huohuo!" The homeless man muttered and cursed. Naturally, he was not happy that his access had been broken.  "Hokhol" is a scornful name given by Russians to Little Russians (Ukrainians).  The tramp didn't curse loudly, but although the market was noisy and chaotic, the slave trader had sensitive ears and immediately picked up a stick and hit the tramp on the back.  "I'm not a Hohor! I'm a Cossack!" Amidst the laughter of the onlookers, the homeless man who was beaten and struggled in the muddy water for a long time before getting up, walked away in disgust like a wild dog.  "Thank you!" The wealthy businessman was going to buy some slaves, but now the slave trader did him a favor, and he could discuss business with him, and the two began to talk.  "How about a cup of hot tea? It's sweet enough with sugar!" If business comes to your door, slave traders will naturally not let it go.  After drinking several cups of hot tea, the two cunning guys began to bargain.  "Nirvana! Nirvana! It's too expensive! These barbarians you caught from the woods, and their women who are so dirty that you can't even see their skin color, are they so expensive?" The slave trader also knew that praise and blame are the buyers' principles, so when he saw this  Although the wealthy businessman was shouting about being expensive, his feet were like nails and he refused to give in at all: "Did you drink too much vodka or eat too much honey and bread? What you bought was a slave, not a slave in a brothel."  Whore. Do you care if his face is dirty? Look at these barbarians. They are as thick as pine trees and as strong as brown bears. They are all alive. They can ride horses, hunt, herd, and hunt.  Fish, women can make fur, cut honey, work hard during the day, and make hot water for washing in the evening. Why is it so expensive? " The surrounding merchants also gathered around at this time, and they couldn't help but express themselves after hearing the vulgar words of the slave traders.  There was a roar of laughter, and someone even whistled.  "Okay! I'll make the deal at your price! However, I don't have enough gold coins in my hand. Can I pay you with the gold tickets of the Khitan South Barbarians?" The businessman from Moscow took out a wallet from the lining of his robe.  , just judging from the texture and pattern of the leather, you can tell that it is expensive.  ¡°However, what was taken out from it were a few pieces of colorful paper.  The onlookers were immediately disappointed.  "It turns out he's a liar too! Just buy a slave with a few pieces of paper!" "Hi! I thought he was a rich man, but I didn't expect he was the same as that guy just now!""It's different! How can that guy compare with others?" For a while, cynicism was endless.  "Get out! Get away from me! A bunch of ignorant people!" The slave trader was quite knowledgeable.  He looked at it carefully for a while and then scolded the onlookers away.  "This is a gold ticket issued by the Southern Barbarians, using their currency as a unit, with a denomination of five hundred dollars. This is circulated among the nobles of Europe. I sold my furs to the gentlemen of the Tsar's court, and they gave me  This. All European royal families, nobles, and bishops will accept it. Even the Ottoman Sultan is willing to accept it." The Moscow merchant pointed to the badges on the ticket and explained them to the slave trader.  "Of course I know, I also have a few here. They were given to me by the two barons in Yakutsk!" The slave trader curled his lips and expressed disdain for the Moscow businessmen who thought they were well-informed.  The baron mentioned by the slave traders is naturally a nobleman from Moscow.  And Khabarov, the most powerful and richest man in the city, can only act like a third grandson in front of these two barons. There is no other way, who makes someone a noble?  Moreover, he brought with him His Majesty the Tsar's two to three hundred regular troops, the four to five hundred armed peasants from his family estate, and the adventurers, traitors, and deserters who followed them along the way to explore and make money in the Far East.  , Cossacks, criminals and other types of scum, there are no less than a thousand people.  It can be said that two-thirds of the people in Yakutsk who can pee standing up are their subordinates.  () Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: Shukeju
