Today's Sichuanese are descendants of immigrants such as Huguang?

Sichuanese have suffered a lot in history. Because of Dujiangyan, it became a land of abundance, and because of Dujiangyan, it became a battleground for military strategists! There have been many wars and massacres in Sichuan history, resulting in a sharp drop in population. The latest one was the massacre when Zhang, a branch of the invading army in the late Ming Dynasty, left Sichuan. Some historians have also studied the massacre when the Qing army captured Sichuan. Anyway, by the early Qing Dynasty, the population of Sichuan was already "sparse", and the Qing government mobilized the population of Huguang to migrate to Sichuan. There are still many Hakkas in Sichuan, which was filled in at that time. There should also be some locals. Nowadays, even the ethnic groups are greatly integrated, let alone the local people. It is difficult to tell where they used to be.
