in ancient times, there was a group of people who left their homes and traveled across mountains and rivers just to seek a ray of hope. later, this incident was made into a tv series called "crossing guandong". in fact, everyone knows it from the title of the show. this incident was the "crossing guandong" movement that took place in the late qing dynasty and early republic of china. this movement can be said to have changed the fate of countless shandong people and was a great migration.

at that time, natural disasters and man-made tragedies occurred one after another in shandong, and the people were suffering terribly: a group of ragged farmers, carrying simple bags, embarked on a long journey northward.

but in the general impression, shandong people are very brave, so why did they give up the prosperous jiangnan and choose the cold and cold outside the pass? what happened at that time?

1. the closed and open northeast china

all this started when the qing dynasty took control of the central plains. back then, the manchus, led by nurhaci, went south from outside the great wall and eventually established the unified qing dynasty. in order to consolidate its power, the qing court issued a far-reaching policy - the "forbidden border order".

in fact, the purpose of this ban is very simple: it means strictly restricting han people from entering and settling in the area outside the great wall (which later became the northeast). the qing court’s intention is very clear. they hope to separate the birthplace of the manchus from the central plains in this way, so as to maintain their own ruling foundation.
