After entering Luoyang,Mongolia began to plan to exterminate the Song Dynasty and attacked the it from Bashu,Jinghu and Huai River.Sichuan is located in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River,and can reach Wu and Chu along the river.In addition,it is a strategic area with abundant products,so it is the first to be attacked.In order to escape from war,many Shu people came out of the Qutang gorge to the southeast.After they settled down,they actively interacted with the local society and formed the interpersonal network of all the immigrant,so that they could have a foothold and development in the alien land.This paper studies from four parts.The first part mainly discusses the reasons for the eastward migration of Shu people.From the third year of Duanping to the second year of Xiangxing(1236—1279),Shu people experienced nearly half a century of war.Especially during the period of Wokuotai and Mengge's expedition to Shu,the wars in Shu were especially fierce,which led to the killing of Shu people,the decline of production,the hardship of life and the disorder of society.The originally rich Shu land was no longer a safe place to live,and the large—scale migration of Shu people to the East was inevitable.The second part mainly discusses the process of Shu people moving eastward.In terms of time,the first large—scale migration of Shu people was in the period of war in Sichuan after the third year of Duanping(1236),the second large—scale migration was in the period of southeast turmoil after Xiangyang's fall in the ninth year of Xianchun(1273),and the third migration was after the sea battle in Ya mountain in the second year of Xiangxing(1279);in terms of population,the people who migrated to Shu include those who experienced the war and those who could not return to Shu due to the war According to the officials,the area of origin is mainly the densely populated Chengdu Plain;In terms of route and destination area,Shu people mostly take boats to reach to the east and move into Jinghu,East and west of the Yangtze River,Liangzhe,Fujian and Guangdong areas.The third part mainly discusses the social life in the early stage of the migration of Shu people to the East.In the face of large—scale migration of Shu,the government of Song adopted many resettlement measures,including relief,resettlement of residence,and gave preferential treatment in many aspects,such as home purchase,imperial examination and official entry,funeral and so on.With the support of the policy,the people who moved from Shu to the east were able to base themselves on the local area and to seek livelihood.They were engaged in agriculture,commerce,education,official service,literature selling and Buddhism or Taoism.After basically solving the problem of food and clothing,the people who moved from Shu to the east began to build their clans,actively seeking relatives,gathering and helping the clans,sacrificing their ancestors and recording their lineages,so that the clans became the basis for a foothold in a strange environment.In addition,Shu immigrants have frequent interaction with local society.They are accepted by local people through communication with local people and engaging in local public affairs,so that they and their families can develop in alien ereas.The fourth part mainly discusses the people who moved from Shu to the east constructed of the interpersonal party network of Shu nationality.When Shu people move into a strange environment,they will inevitably feel lonely and helpless,especially when they are in conflict with or compete with the local aborigines,they will strengthen their hometown identity.Therefore,the people who moved from Shu to the east with the same situation and identity gradually came together,and formed the party network of Shu nationality through five ways: recalling the hometown,continuing in marriage,inheriting the Academy,mutual promotion and spreading the God of Shu.Taking the Mou family of Lingyang as an example,it shows that the members of the Shu Party's interpersonal network of the people who moved from Shu to the east have close contacts and sincere feelings.In addition,Wu Yong,Yang Dong,Yu Ji,etc.are also important nodes through the interpersonal network.By showing the communication between the above characters(families)and other people who moved from Shu to the east,this paper analyzes the characteristics of the interpersonal network of the party of Shu nationality,such as many nodes,various forms of communication,dense connection between Liangzhe regions,and cross regional communication.No matter the interaction with the local society or the construction of rural party network with other Shu immigrants,there is no immigration strategy as a vulnerable group to seek a foothold,root and development in a foreign country.
