Immigrate to Central Asia

The event of Turgut people returning to the East can be said to be a very tragic migration history in the world history.

According to records, among the170,000 Turks, less than100,000 people finally arrived in Yili, China. In the process of their migration, they were besieged and intercepted by Russian, Cossack and Kazakh troops, and they paid a huge price and successfully avoided the danger of all the earthen houses being destroyed.

If they hadn't returned to the Qing Dynasty, what would have happened to those earthen houses?

The main reason why Turgut people chose to migrate was that the Russian Empire was expanding its territory at that time, and in order to ensure the smooth operation on the front line, it began to squeeze the living space of other nationalities. At the same time, a large number of Cossack immigrants expanded eastward, shrinking the nomadic land in Turkut.

With the continuous expansion of the war, the Turks realized that the living space was getting smaller and smaller, and they might even perish, which led to the Turks having to migrate. But this matter is still confidential to the Russian Empire.

Without any notice, he undoubtedly betrayed the Russian Empire. So they will encounter all kinds of difficulties on their way back to the East.

Tsarist Russia recruited them. If there are any remaining huts at that time, the first possibility is to be recruited. Because the war launched by Russia at that time was particularly large. So many troops are needed for front-line operations that the remaining adobe houses are likely to be used as cannon fodder by Russia. At the same time, they were deprived of the territory they had before.

If it is unlikely to be completely eliminated, if it is completely eliminated, it may also cause resistance from Turks. And if we let them go to the front to fight, we can promise them some "lies." Not only can we make them work hard for it, but we don't have to worry that they will rebel or anything.

Many Cossacks were forcibly immigrated to Central Asia by Russia, so the best way to resettle these people is to take away all the Turks who originally lived here and leave their land and property to the Cossacks, so that they can even reap the gratitude of the Cossacks to the Russian Empire.

Another possibility of exile to Siberia is to exile them to Siberia. After all, as traitors, they are absolutely not allowed to continue to live and work in their original land. And there will be many high-level officials of the Russian Empire, such as Catherine II, who always thought this move was embarrassing. Turgut's flight to the East is a great shame for the Russian Empire, and these traitors should be wiped out completely.

Siberia at that time was more desolate than today, with a cold and dry climate and frequent wildlife activities. Coupled with the underdevelopment of science and technology at that time, I simply don't know which area is rich in mineral resources.

If exiled to Siberia, it is equivalent to the Qing Dynasty criminals being exiled to Ningguta, or even worse. Then they will be tested by nature and will probably die on the road. Even if we successfully arrive in Siberia, there will be various food shortages and other problems, leading to mass death of the population.

In addition, we should also consider the lack of medical care and medicine at the time of onset. In this way, few Turks can survive in the end.

Another final result of the autocratic system for them was that the Russian Empire did not exile them to Siberia, nor did it recruit them. Instead, it chose to continuously compress their territory and impose a harsher system on them. Of course, the purpose of doing this is, first of all, to show other democratic countries the generosity of their empire, so as to attract other nations to support their empire more.

However, they secretly imposed various cruel systems on Turgut people. Increase their taxes and even allow local officials to do whatever they want in their territory without being punished by any law. It is also very likely that the earthen houses were sold as slaves underground.

For this kind of betrayal of the empire, as a senior leader, he will never let the betrayer feel better. But the main leaders of the traitors have escaped, so they can only take it out on those who have not left.

As the ruler of the Turks at that time, Wabashi finally chose to move the whole family on a large scale, instead of taking only some people away, because he had considered that the rest of them would not have a good life in the future. At the same time, he also knew how the Russian Empire would punish them. The story of Wabashi leading the Turks back to the East is still being told today. After half a year, this ancient Mongolian nation finally returned to the "embrace of the motherland."
