Why do most Tongliao people have a northeast accent?

For a long time, we have a misunderstanding that Liaoning, Jilin and Heilongjiang are only called the Northeast. In fact, in addition to the above three provinces, Hulunbeier City, Xing 'an League, Tongliao City, Chifeng City, Chengde City, Hebei Province and Shanhaiguan District, Qinhuangdao City in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region are all part of Northeast China, covering an area of about 6,543,800 square kilometers. Although Tongliao belongs to Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region administratively, its living habits and language pronunciation are quite different from those in western Inner Mongolia, but it is closer to Liaoning, Jilin and Heilongjiang provinces. What's going on here?

As early as more than 2,000 years ago, the Huns still lived in the Hetao grassland. When grazing horses in the south, there was a powerful nomadic tribe alliance in the eastern part of Xiongnu. The Huaxia people in the Central Plains didn't know what kind of nation this tribal alliance was, but only knew that it was distributed to the east of Xiongnu, who called themselves "Hu", so they called the people east of "Hu" "Donghu". After Donghu was defeated by Xiongnu, Yuzhong fled to the east in two batches, and some fled to Wuhuan Mountain (now north of Arukerqin Banner in Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region), calling themselves "Wuhuan"; Some fled to Xianbei Mountain in Daxing 'anling, calling themselves "Xianbei". Later Murong Zhuyan, the Khitan people and the Mongols were all descendants of Xianbei people.

There was also a Sioux clan in the eastern mountainous area of northeast China in ancient times, which was the ancestor of the later Jurchen (Manchu) people. There is also a filth tribe between Su Shen tribe and Donghu tribe. In the process of conquest and national subjugation, almost all different tribes are accompanied by a large number of mobile migration history. In this process, the economy, culture, politics and marriage of all ethnic groups have been widely contacted and exchanged, thus absorbing and accommodating each other, merging and assimilating each other, further changing some of their lifestyles and production habits. For example, most of the Korean-inhabited areas in Jilin speak common Chinese, wear Han costumes and live in Chinese houses; In the "Longxing Land" of Manchu in Liaoning Province, there are many pure Manchu people who can't speak Manchu.

In addition to the original nationalities, most of the Han people living in Northeast China are Shandong people and Hebei people who moved to Northeast China since Ming and Qing Dynasties. At that time, it was not out of yearning for the Northeast, but because of the pressure of life and avoiding war, they came to the Northeast in droves and became the developers of the Northeast. Tongliao was one of the areas with serious reclamation in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. Gadamer launched the "Dugui Dragon Movement" to resist Zhang Xueliang's reclamation plan in Meng Qi. After a large number of Han people from outside Shanhaiguan came to Northeast China, under the influence of the people of all ethnic groups in Northeast China, those "southern dialects" were absorbed by Northeast dialects and formed a new Northeast language system. By the next generation, this language has been completely localized.

Until today, Tongliao is still a place with a very high degree of localization in eastern Inner Mongolia, and the traffic is also the most developed area in eastern Inner Mongolia. Starting from Tongliao, it can go directly to Beijing, Tianjin, Harbin, Changchun, Shenyang, Dalian, Dandong, Shijiazhuang, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Chengdu, Urumqi and other cities, without transit, which has played a great role in enhancing Tongliao's influence in China.
