No wonder Marin will be surprised, because the Sauron Warriors are so famous in the history of China! Sauron is actually the old name of the Ewenki ethnic group. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it also included the Daur and Orunchun ethnic groups in the northeast Heilongjiang area.
In ancient times, the Ewenki people, who were born in the black water and bitter cold areas of the northeast Baishan, that is, the Sauron people, were very brave and warlike. They were originally hunters in the old forest of the northeast deep mountain, and their archery was very powerful. Later, he also contacted the Horqin Mongolians in the west and introduced Mongolian horses. Then, the high-strength shooting, and the Sauron who learned to ride, became the strongest cavalry of that era. Moreover, they are not weak in close combat, very brave.
However, it was precisely because of bravery and invincibility that he was later watched by the rising Manqing. Then, the cunning Huang Taiji sent troops from the north of Jilin to the Heilongjiang River Basin. After three rounds of conquest, the Saurons were conquered there.
Some people may ask, do n’t you say that the Sauron Warriors are invincible? Why would they be conquered by Manchu? Are the Eight Banner Soldiers in Manchuria better?
This is not the case, but the Saurons themselves are scattered, not a unified and powerful force. Although the individual Sauron warriors are very powerful, the Sauron warriors owned by each tribe generally have a maximum of several hundred people. As a result, Man Ching was given every opportunity to break.
This is mainly because the northern part of Northeast China was too bitter and cold, and the living environment was too bad. Coupled with the fact that the Sauron did not cultivate land and only hunted, it became impossible for a large population to gather.
Because prey resources in a region are limited, if too many people are crowded in an area, then the prey is not enough to hunt, and everyone will be hungry.
Therefore, the Sauron people are generally in the form of small tribes, scattered in the deep mountain old forest near the Great Xing'an Mountains in the northeast, and it is difficult to hold groups to fight against the Qing Dynasty.
Manchu was originally a Jianzhou Jurchen, the ethnic group with the highest degree of localization in all parts of the Northeast. Nurhachi even went on a long-term job under Li Chengliang. He naturally understood Chinese and also read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Jianzhou Jurchen had already learned farming because of its high degree of localization. Moreover, the Jurchen tribe traditionally raises pigs, and the food sources are naturally much richer than the Sauron who only hunt. Naturally, they can gather more people in the tribe and even build cities.
If the same people and the same command level, the stubborn Sauron will definitely be able to fly the Manqing Eight Banners. However, the problem is that there are more people in the Qing Dynasty and less people in the Sauron. Therefore, it is not surprising to be conquered by the Manchus.
After the Manchu conquest of Sauron's ministries, the Sauron warriors were very insidiously used as cannon fodder. Just like the capture of the savages in the mountains, let the Saurons die in the front, and then the real Manchu followed by picking up the cheap to grab the head ...
How important is Sauron to the Qing Dynasty? From the time before entering the customs, Manqing began to trend savages Jurchen and Sauron soldiers rushing to the front as cannon fodder, attracting Ming firepower. Of course, Sauron soldiers are more valued because of their powerful fighting strength.
In the early period of the Manchu Dynasty, the Manqi Eight Banners were still able to fight. However, in the Kangxi period, the Manchu Banner quickly degraded and degraded due to long-term Jinyiyu food, and its combat effectiveness declined sharply. By the time Wu Sangui turned against the Qing, Man Baqi had become a commodity. Finally, relying on the 400,000 green camp soldiers who surrendered from the Ming Dynasty to settle the San Francisco.
Later, Kangxi also seemed to be aware of the fall of the younger brothers of the Eight Banners in the Qing Dynasty. But he couldn't help it, because people became masters after entering the customs, no matter how productive, people have to wait for food and clothing, what kind of fighting power do you expect from those eight flag brothers? By the end of the Qing Dynasty, it is not surprising that the Eighth Banner Brother became synonymous with waste.
As a result, Kangxi pinned his hopes on the Sauron still living in the Northeast. In order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the Sauron soldiers, Kangxi did not allow Sauron to cultivate land, let them continue to hunt and survive in the black water of Baishan, and maintain a savage style of life in order to maintain a strong combat effectiveness.
Then, as soon as there was a war, the Qing court madly sent out "Sauron Warriors" to be cannon fodder ...
At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, there were tens of thousands of Sauron people in the northeast alone in the Sauron headquarters (that is, Ewenki), and there were 50,000 Daurs who were known as Sauron ’s other parts. Ten thousand people. In total, there were more than one hundred thousand Saurons at the time.
But since the Kangxi period, because they realized that the Manchu Banner was no longer useful, they began to madly recruit Sauron soldiers to fight. The craziest is Qianlong, Kangxi's grandson. Qianlong suffers from a severe "Sorren Warriors' Dependence", and he has imposed a super crazy levy on the Soren Department in the northeast.
Qianlong self-proclaimed "Old Man Shiquan", meaning ten victories. However, some of the toughest battles were fought by the Sauron.
For example, the battle to pacify West Xinjiang was that the Sauron were the vanguards, helping him defeat the Junggar Ministry and the size and Zhuo. Later, Manqing Qing's Horgos in Yili was also stationed in Sauron Camp to suppress local resistance.
Moreover, the Xibo tribe at that time was also a vassal of the Sauron camp, and went to guard the Western Xinjiang in the name of the Sauron camp. The Xijiang Xibo tribe, where the famous actress Tong Liya later lived, moved west with the Sauron Camp during the battle in Xijiang at that time.
In addition, Qianlong repelled Myanmar and defeated the Nepalese Gurkha soldiers, also relying on the Sauron soldiers. It can be said that without the Sauron Warriors, there are several fewer "ten complete martial arts" of the Qianlong chief.
However, Qianlong's mad levy on the Sauron also caused a mad drop in the population of the Sauron. After all, many Sauron warriors were killed by the Qing Dynasty when they were sent to the battlefield as cannon fodder.
If nothing else, a single data can explain the problem. At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, there were tens of thousands of Ewenki people in the Sauron headquarters, 50,000 Daur people, and 10,000 or 20,000 people in Oroqen.
However, three hundred years later, look at these three Sauron tribes-there are only 30,000 Ewenkis and 130,000 Daurs. Orunchun is the worst, with only more than 8,000 people left ...
You know, this is three hundred years! Sons and grandchildren, sons and sons, according to normal circumstances, the tribes should have at least a million talent pairs. However, due to Manchu's severe dependence and endless levy, the Sauron people died on the battlefield in large numbers, and the population fell instead of increasing ...
...
In fact, none of the above is important, the most important thing is-the Sauron Warriors are really suitable for fighting in the jungle!
In other people's ancestors lived in the old forests of the northeastern deep mountains, because of hunting, they practiced very powerful archery. Moreover, because there are a lot of bears and tigers in the northeast jungle, in order to survive, the Saurons have fought against jackals, tigers and leopards, and their combat effectiveness is not low. In other words, the combat effectiveness is very strong. Even the Eight Banners of the Ming Dynasty, which beat the Ming army a lot, admitted that the Sauron ’s fighting power was “the best in the world,” showing how ferocious the Saurons were.
Moreover, after learning to ride horses, their riding shots are even more powerful than the man who boasted riding shots all day long. Like the five Ewenki domesticated slaves from Haiwen Qing bought by Marin from the Yexibu of the Haixi Jurchen, they are very good at riding and shooting. Moreover, it is especially adapted to the jungle environment.
This time Marin sent the head of the Nubian team to take a group of German Black Forest hunters to the North American jungle to clean up the local indigenous Indians. The five Sauron eagle eagle masters took the initiative to fight because they were idle and bored. Hai Dongqing, as well as the Mongolian horse northeast jungle dwarf, followed to North America. Then, shine in the Qing fight ...
It's not that these five people are all martial arts and can be used for a hundred, but their role is too great!
In the jungle war, the most feared thing is that the enemy hides in the jungle and escapes, which is difficult to track. Even though Marin brought in a lot of Black Forest hunters, he used the hounds to track Indian natives. However, because the speed of tracking with hounds is not fast, the speed of hounds smelling on the ground, which one runs faster? Moreover, the hound that is too protruding is also easily shot by the Native Americans with bows and arrows.
However, the five Sauron eagle breeders who went to the exhibition this time let Nubi see what is called Niubi ...
On your side, the Black Forest hunter uses the hound to slowly track the enemy on the ground. The Sauron hawks are used by Haidongqing to conduct air reconnaissance ...
No matter how fast the Native Americans run, can Haidong Qing fly fast? Moreover, this year, the Indians did not know how to wear camouflage lurking, but like to wear colorful flowers and paint bright colors on their bodies. Hai Dongqing should not be too easy to track them!
The five Sauron Falconers of Baigeri, Suha, Barhu, Yadan, and Muren used Haidongqing's aerial reconnaissance to easily find those Native Indian tribes hidden in the jungle. Then, Nubby took an army of thousands of Black Forest hunters and easily encircled the hidden Native American tribes.
So ~ www.novelhall.com ~ The most powerful of these five people is not their fighting power, but their ability to use Haidongqing to detect Indian natives in the jungle. Of course, their fighting power is also very strong, and it is no problem to fight a few Indians. Especially after they wear armor. The Indians' bows and arrows can't shoot their armor, but they can easily shoot their opponents ...
Nubby asserted that if these five eagle trainers could follow them to clear the indigenous people, they would very easily destroy all the indigenous people in a large area. Because, Hai Dongqing's aerial reconnaissance is too incomprehensible ...
No matter how fast you run, no one flies fast. In addition, the eagle ’s vision is very good, and the Indians do not understand camouflage, which can greatly facilitate the North Sea army to clear and conquer the Indians hiding in the North American jungle.
Nubby believes that if Haidongqing Scouts are used in conjunction with Black Forest hunter soldiers, the threat of Indians in the jungle can be easily resolved. Then, to develop North America, there is no need to slowly cut trees and step by step. As long as Hai Dongqing conducts a large-scale reconnaissance and then clears all the indigenous people in the nearby jungle, the immigrants can comfortably develop this rich and fertile forest ...
"Equip the hunter troops with Haidongqing domesticers as scouts? This is a very good idea!" Marin's eyes lit up ...
