Wehe

Wehe is a name recorded for the Woken River, which flows through the wooded hills south of the Songhua before joining that great river. Its valley lay within the lands of Jurchen communities along the lower Songhua. During the Yuan, several military and civilian myriarchies administered the surrounding river country through local leaders. Ming authorities later conferred titles upon Jurchen chiefs and maintained relations with them through tribute and trade, extending their contacts along the waterways of the northeast.
