Hongwu Suzhou Immigrants in Ming Dynasty

Ming dynasty reached its peak and became an authoritative mandarin. National voice as a standard in the Republic of China. Its language system experienced three times of northization in Yongjia, Five Dynasties and Southern Song Dynasty, and was also influenced by southern dialects, such as Hongwu's post-war migration. Five hundred years ago, this was a family. At that time, the woman who was driven away by Hongwu was carrying a boy and holding a child in her hand. She came to Funing County. She was careless, many people and miscellaneous eyes, and a child in her hand was separated. Later, she grew up and became independent. The Dai family separated from each other, but Susong's economy was relatively prosperous. At that time, there was a saying that there were 100,000 cities in Suzhou and Nagato. Many Yangzhou people in Xinghua, Yancheng who followed the Zhang Shicheng Uprising once moved their families to Nagato. For example, Shi Naian, a very famous old man in history, also lives in Nagato.

In addition, considering the great gap between the rich and the poor in Jiangnan and Jiangbei, they ordered these rich people and big families to move their generations to Jiangbei. Suzhou Nagato Wharf was the place where immigrants left by boat at that time. Almost every family in the countryside has a family tree, which was driven away by Hongwu. In our village, junior high school students and senior high school students seldom say that Suzhou Changmen drove them away. I don't know where you slapped your head and said it was 85%! Therefore, at the beginning, the population was not large, and there must be immigrants from all over the country. Coupled with the assimilation of the government, Yancheng dialect gradually formed.

However, it is probably not accidental that Rusheng has always been retained in dialects in Jianghuai area, and Wu dialect, represented by Suzhou dialect, also has Rusheng, and the northern boundary of Suzhou immigrants in northern Jiangsu basically coincides with the northern boundary of Jianghuai dialect. Baoying in the west, Jianhu in the north, Xinghua in the south and Du Yan in the east, surnamed Zhang. When I was a child, my grandfather said that Nagato was from Suzhou. No wonder I have heard of such a bridge. There is so much history, and there is Zhu Sheng in the town (1299- 1370). The accent of speaking has much to do with drinking water. Suzhou people have come down from generation to generation for hundreds of years, and of course they have become locals who speak local dialect.
