Herdsmen and hunters of the south-eastern Khingan foot, between the Taizhou march and the trench: remnants of the old Shiwei peoples and of the Xi and Khitan, speaking Mongolic or Khitan-related tongues.
They lie in the zone of the jiu units and the Onggirat's raids.

How things stand that morning
Quiet; nothing recorded for the winter of 1199-1200 in what we could read.
Where the sources disagree
Evidence: Thin: later Mongol tradition places the Onggirat and Khorchin here; for 1200 only the ground is certain.
On the map: Rough outline; Jin prefecture boundaries are not fixed on any map we could use.
