Imperial edict immigration in the early Ming Dynasty

"Huguang filling Sichuan" refers to the decades from the end of Ming Dynasty to the beginning of Qing Dynasty, due to wars, plagues and natural disasters, the population of Sichuan decreased sharply and cultivated land was reclaimed.

Desolate. Under this specific historical condition, in order to solve the problems of labor force and grain production in Sichuan, the Qing Dynasty adopted the measures of "reclaiming farmland".

Measures, immigrants from more than ten provinces including Hubei, Hunan and Huguang have settled in Sichuan, among which Hubei and Hunan are the most.

Southern province. According to statistics, this migration lasted for more than 100 years, and the number of people entering Sichuan was about one million, including Hubei and Hunan provinces.

Up to half. Among the immigrants in Hubei Province, Macheng immigrants occupy an important position. This paper discusses the status of Macheng immigrants in "Huguang filling Sichuan"

And talk about the role of some opinions.

First, the background of implementing the policy of "Huguang filling Sichuan"

In the immigration history of China, the "Huguang filling Sichuan" in the early Qing Dynasty was a noteworthy historical event. The reason why Sichuan wants to "fill in" is people.

The mouth is extremely scarce and needs to be enriched. Sichuan suffered the most from the 30 years of war in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. 1644, Zhang led a peasant uprising into Sichuan.

In February of 65438, he proclaimed himself emperor and established political power, with the title of "Daxi" and Chengdu as "Xijing". Sichuan became the land of four wars: the Ming army killed indiscriminately, the Qing army killed indiscriminately, and the place was rich.

Strong indiscriminate killing, rural hooligans indiscriminate killing for credit, Zhang is also suspected of indiscriminate killing. Then the war between Nanming and Qing army; And Wu Sangui's anti-Qing.

Military war. The people of Sichuan have suffered wars and massacres again and again. According to official statistics, there are only 70,000 people left in 1668 Chengdu, Sichuan.

. In some counties, the loss rate of registered permanent residence is only 10% or 20% of the original population. The remaining population of Sichuan Province is about 600,000.

After reunification, the Qing government implemented a series of "filling Sichuan" policies. Mainly to encourage immigrants from other provinces to enter Sichuan for reclamation. If it is stipulated that anyone who wishes to enter Sichuan

Give an acre of land a permanent career. Poor people in all provinces who bring their wives to Sichuan can be naturalized. Preferential policies for recruiting people in Sichuan and the promotion of officials' political achievements at all levels

Rewarding reclamation and recruiting people are closely linked; Implement additional preferential tax policies. Kangxi ordered immigrants to reclaim land for five years.

Tax. And breeding populations will never be given. It also stipulates that the competent authorities in the place of origin of immigrants and the competent authorities in the place of settlement in Sichuan should cooperate with the transfer.

Verify, arrange accounts and include them in Garbo. These policies have created a good environment and conditions for immigrants.

Two, Macheng immigrants into Sichuan conditions, forms and quantity.

According to the data provided by Guangxu's New Records of Guang 'an Prefecture, the Huang and Ma nationalities in Hubei accounted for 26.64% of the population entering Guang 'an Prefecture. Hubei and Hunan together account for about

60%。 The immigration of Huguang into Sichuan has greatly promoted China society. Among them, Macheng immigrants occupy an important position in Sichuan.

State.

Geographically speaking, Hubei Province is closest to Sichuan, and the Yangtze River flows into Sichuan Basin. In ancient times,

It is the best route to enter Sichuan under the conditions. Therefore, from the Yuan Dynasty to the early Qing Dynasty, immigrants from Macheng, Hubei Province, filled Sichuan and became unemployed in Sichuan.

Most people. There are three immigration conditions in Macheng: first, Macheng is not far from Chongqing; Second, Macheng immigrants have a long history, and both the Yuan Dynasty and the early Ming Dynasty were great.

A large number of Macheng immigrants entered Sichuan. Third, it is related to Zhang's peasant uprising. Zhang stayed in Hubei for a long time, and then moved to Huguang and Jiangxi.

It's Macheng. Many farmers have joined the army. So many of Zhang's men are Macheng people. After Zhang failed, some people stayed in Sichuan anonymously.

The first form of immigration into Sichuan is to enter Sichuan by order. Immigrants from Nanchuan County, Sichuan Province are all from Huguang Province, especially from Ejiao Daqiu, Xiaogan Township, Macheng (

There were four townships in Macheng in the early Ming Dynasty, and Xiaogan Township was merged into Xianju Township in Chenghua period of Ming Dynasty. At that time, when the court promulgated Chu Zhao Chuan, the grassroots

The enforcement department adopted martial law to forcibly bind villages and forcibly enter Sichuan, so the origin of immigrants is not only the same as that of the earth,

Even small place names are the same. The ancestor of Ma Shitu, a famous writer, was from Macheng. During the Qianlong period, the four brothers Ma reclaimed land in Macheng. male

The children went up the Yangtze River, arrived in Zhongzhou (now Zhongxian), and left the bend hills and sandbars in Shi Baozhai for more than ten miles, which became a small place name here.

Majiashan and majiawan. Ma's four people have multiplied more than a thousand people in Pingchu Village near the Yangtze River. The second is to survive and deposit in Shu. Famous works

Ai Wu's ancestors came from Xiaogan Township, Macheng, and made a living by farming. However, due to the loss of land, in the middle of Kangxi, under the background of "Huguang filling Sichuan",

In order to survive, I had to go to Xishu, so I took my wife and belt from the Yangtze River waterway to Sichuan, and finally chose Pingping at the junction of Xinfan County and Pengxian County in Chengdu.

It turned out that * was planted in the ditch. The third is to do business in Shu. In the early Qing Dynasty, the trade between Hubei and neighboring Sichuan was very convenient, and some of them settled in nearby Sichuan.

. For example, Liu Tingqi, who was originally from Macheng, Hubei Province, ordered his family Liu Junchen to settle in Zhongjiang "Xiangtu" in the thirty-ninth year of Kangxi, and then took his wife to do business along the way.

Easy to settle in Zhongjiang. The fourth is to settle down as an official. For example, Liang Guangyu, commander-in-chief of Sichuan Longyingying, was originally from Huguang Macheng and later served as commander-in-chief of Sichuan.

Later, he lived in Sanmuli, Wu Jia, Quanmen Township, Jiangyou County.

In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, there were more than one million immigrants from Macheng, half of whom came from Hubei and Hunan. There are about 300 thousand people in Hubei.

. Macheng undoubtedly occupies an important proportion. However, how many people entered Sichuan from Macheng? The author consulted Macheng county annals in Qing dynasty, but did not remember the great event of immigration.

Load. According to the household registration records of Macheng County Annals printed in Guangxu 8 years of Qing Dynasty, the population of Macheng in Jiajing 35 years of Ming Dynasty was 148240. Ming Wanli's 47-year-old book appointment.

There are 1 16234 people. The registered population in the early Qing Dynasty was 1 10287. Inferred from this figure, there are 37,953 people who may emigrate in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.

Went to Sichuan. Of course, there are also people who participated in the peasant uprising in Zhang. But it is estimated that the number of immigrants is around 30 thousand. This number is like

It's true, accounting for 10% of Hubei immigrants. There should be more at county level. This does not include the number of people who entered Sichuan in the early Ming Dynasty. such as

Add up to an estimated 65,438+10,000 people. According to Professor Hu Zhaoxi of Sichuan University, 58 genealogies in Chongqing, Hechuan, Nanxi and Guang 'an were recorded many years ago.

The research shows that there were 1 18 households in Sichuan before the Qing Dynasty, among which Huguang accounted for 85 households, and 65 of these 85 households came from Macheng.

Third, the management and role of Sichuan Macheng immigrants

First, relatively centralized management of Macheng immigrants. For example, Yunyang, the city is divided into north and south banks, and the people on the south bank moved from Xiaogan, Huguang Macheng, during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty.

There were foreigners in the North Shore between Kangxi and Yongzheng, but there were more people in Hubei and Hunan. "(Xianfeng Yunyang County Records) is a naturalized immigrant.

, strengthen household registration management, sealed and received, put it into Jiabao, so that it can be cultivated safely.

Second, introduce new crops and planting techniques. For example, crops and technologies such as sweet potato, sugarcane, sericulture and tobacco planting in Macheng were all introduced to Sichuan by immigrants.

Third, promote business development. Macheng businessmen operate mountain products, grain and other key industries, as well as iron pots, cloth shops, hemp shops, wine shops and pig shops.

Trading of porcelain, miscellaneous grains and other commodities.

Fourth, population reproduction. For example, in the fourth year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (137 1), Gan Chengxian of Xiaogan Township, Macheng County, Hubei Province led his family to move to Fushenggan.

Jiagou, which has lasted for hundreds of years, has developed into a surname with the advantage of getting the moon first. Now it is mainly distributed in Fu Sheng, Fenghe, Baer and Shiyong.

Land. Scattered throughout the county. "

Fifth, spread culture. For example, Kan Changyan, a native of Macheng, was a scholar in the eighth year of Yongzheng, and served as the county magistrate of Deyang, Sichuan in the fifth year of Qianlong (1740). He is in the office.

In this book, "I often visit Long Mu to persuade farmers to teach mulberry", and I wrote a book "Family Affairs" according to the natural and economic conditions in Sichuan. This book is about time and place.

From two aspects of benefit and manpower, this paper describes many farming activities such as grasping farming time, improving soil and paying attention to farming technology.

Sixth, immigrants keep in touch with Macheng. The famous writers are the ancestors of the Tang Dynasty, who moved from Macheng to Xinfan in the early Qing Dynasty.

It comes with the rhyme of "hope to inherit the ancestors' career and virtue to prosper" and is passed down from generation to generation. The father of the future was the word "Kun", which was in the late Qing Dynasty.

In 2000, when the number of people doubled and the names were not arranged enough, people were sent to Macheng to visit their ancestors' families, and only many rhymes were brought back and printed on the genealogy.

. The first two sentences are "Tao is generous and benevolent, making contributions and showing courage to learn." Ai Wu took this poem as the word generation of "Tao" and was named Tang Daogeng by his father.

Deng Xiaoping's hometown is Guang 'an County. About one third of the people from Huang An and Macheng, Hubei Province were recorded in Guangxu Guang 'an County Records. And Deng

Xiaoping's grandparents may have immigrated from Macheng. According to Mao Mao's introduction in the book: "Many people have studied my father's life and visited it."

Our family and family history. Some people say that our family is an immigrant from Hubei. -even my uncle said that when I was a child, I heard adults say, Deng.

My family moved here from Hubei. "("my father Deng Xiaoping "on page 23) Mao Mao's uncle Duncan works in Wuhan, where he has been many times.

After Macheng, I thought Deng's ancestors were from Macheng. It can be seen that the ancestors of Comrade Deng Xiaoping probably immigrated from Macheng.

Second, Linshui County. According to county records, there are as many as 65 kinds of immigrant surnames, of which "Hubei is the most, especially Macheng in this province." Among them

Famous families such as Gan Jiabin, Zhengqing of Dali Temple in Qing Dynasty, and Bao, the commander-in-chief of Taiwan Province, are all Macheng people. Gump mentioned it before. Bao is in "

In Hongwunian of Ming Dynasty (137 1), Tongzongbao of Xiaogan Township in Macheng moved to Lvdou Bay in Xingren Township and left the business. Now focus on Xingren, neighborhood protection,

Stones and other places. "

In addition, Nanchong County, Tongnan County, Xindu County and other Macheng immigrants are more.

5. Among the outstanding talents of Macheng immigrants, there are many officials and writers.

Recently, the second series of The Road to Economists published by Shanghai University of Finance and Economics Press included an article by Hu Daiguang, a famous economist of Peking University.

In the 1980s, Memories of the Spring and Autumn Annals said: My ancestors were originally from Macheng County, Hubei Province. Because in the late Ming Dynasty, Zhang led the peasant revolutionary movement.

Later, it was suppressed by government forces, resulting in the scarcity of indigenous people in Sichuan, and most of the land was barren and uncultivated. So the Qing government adopted

Take the immigration policy into Sichuan as an example. My ancestors moved to Sichuan from Macheng County, Hubei Province during the Kangxi period (now Sichuanese,

Most of their ancestral homes have migrated from other provinces.

According to the Shenzhen Special Zone Daily, Yang Quan wrote an article Li Peng, the son of Yanhe, in which he wrote: "According to the Li family tree, the Li family is ancient.

My family was originally from Macheng County, Hubei Province, and later moved to Qingfu County, Sichuan Province. I wonder when I moved. "According to Macheng sent someone to Sichuan Gaoxian.
