The Historical Evolution of Yangtong Town

Toarey Yang, formerly known as Yin Ping, was inhabited by ancestors as early as 7000 years ago in the Neolithic Age. Tracing back to its detailed history can be traced back to before the Han Dynasty. According to historical records, Yin Ping was the former site of Yin Ping County in Han Dynasty, so it was called Yin Ping. According to Taiping Universe, Lu Zhi was named here by Emperor Wu of Song. During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, his fourth son was named Yin Pinghou. Yin Ping is located on the south bank of Yin Ping River, with high terrain. It was originally the site of the old town of Yin Ping.

Traveling along Toarey Yang to the northwest, you will see the ruins of historic cities or ancient docks from time to time, which will give you a sense of historical dignity. Here, there are many Neolithic cultural sites alone. According to the information provided by archaeologists in the provincial museum, Zangdun in the southwest of Yinping is a Neolithic site with a three-meter-thick Longshan culture layer. Two-hole stone knives, small stones and pottery tripod feet were found there. The northeast corner of Yangtong is a cultural site of Han Dynasty, with a total area of about 70,000 square meters.

There are many sites in Yangtong, and the site of the ancient city is a rich cultural wealth. In Toarey Yang, Zhongcheng Town, the first ancient city in Shuyang history, was built. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Lv Chenggong began to build a tucheng, named Zhongcheng, which is located in the northwest of Shucheng (Tongzhi in the South of the Yangtze River). Inferred from this, the location of Midtown is in today's Yangtong Town. This is the pride of Shuyang people.

For thousands of years, the old city of Yin Ping has been built and destroyed, destroyed and built. The ruins are hidden in the grassland, but its essence still shines in the long scroll of history. In Toarey Yang, there is also a little-known ancient city-Yin Ping. According to the examination, Sima Yan, Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty, made Lu Zhi in this city, ruled six miles northwest, and later merged with Southern Yan (Taiping General Motors). Shuyang County, 60 miles northwest, belongs to Yinping County of Han Dynasty (Tongzhi in the South of the Yangtze River). Forty miles northwest of Shuyang, Emperor Liu Zi of the Han Dynasty asked the fourth son of Chu Xiaowang to build a city in Yin Ping. Yuan Mei, a magistrate of a county during the reign of Emperor Qianlong of Qing Dynasty, wrote in "Fuyang Fu": "In ancient times, my family slaughtered Shuyang (Han, Yuan 'an, except Yin and Ping), and the petals were separated by thousands of frost; I am tired of Zhuge writing books. I am a courtesy man, Fan Pang; After the wheat, the laundry list is busy in the wild, and the officials return to the children to help the lights; Other schools have different literary theories, and Shen Kuo should also pay tribute to this hometown. "It is said that Yuan An, his family, is very good-looking and has made great achievements, comparable to the sages of past dynasties, and the poet is also very proud. Hu (who has never been tested in his life) reflected the cruelty of war in the old site, and the desolate scene of devastation after the war in ancient times was chilling. He sang: "It was once famous all over Sang Ma, but now the village and city are better than others;" "In the distant house, Artemisia is tall and the wall is open; Wild dolphins feed between broken walls, and strange birds move branches to make the sunset glow; Whoever is in charge after abandoning the army will only listen to the axe and cut the clouds. "

There are many docks in Yangtong. Why the pier? Qiuye. According to the Records of Shuyang County, Pingdiao and Huantao are all stumps, which are too small to be counted. There are Zang Dun, Lu Dun, Yang Dun, Ye Hutun and Bao Dun. These piers are all several feet high. Accumulated dozens of acres, all artificially built. People often dig up five baht of money and ancient bricks, stones and utensils. There are many small docks around Baodun. During the Guangxu period, the village self-preservation Fan family dug two stone doors in Changdun. Shimen is five feet high and over a foot wide. The door is surrounded by bricks, and the Chinese side is a house. It turned out to be an ancient tomb. The coffin is missing. It must have been stolen. An ancient hilt was found in the tomb, and when it was pulled, it became a simmering ember, showing the age. Yin Ping was a county in the Han Dynasty. The Jin Dynasty also sealed Lu Zhi here, so it is speculated that this place may be a tomb in the Han and Jin Dynasties.

In Zangdun Village, Toarey Yang, an old man from Wang Xing told us a puzzling story. Zangdun is said to be the tomb of Cao Cao's father Cao Song. According to the records of Shuyang County, Cao Song, the father of Cao Cao, once took refuge in Langya. Don't try to level the playing field in Tao Qian and kill Cao Song. After Cao Song's death, Cao Cao buried his father's body in Yin Ping, which is now Zangdun. The pier is surrounded by soil, which is more than ten feet high. For thousands of years, it was eroded by wind and rain. Due to soil erosion, it gradually lost its high potential. However, when it stops at the roadside, it can still be seen protruding from the surface in the distance, which makes it unique and more mysterious under the shade of green trees. As for whether Cao Cao's father was buried in the dock, this legend has not been verified, but what is impossible in Toarey Yang, an ancient town with thousands of years of history?

Facing these sites, my thoughts galloped in the distant Neolithic Age, imagining Toarey Yang, where the forest is like the sea and the vegetation is lush. The ancestors lived on water, chose wood to live, or ran or stood. What a totem of life! The never-ending spirit is the pride of Toarey Yang. This spirit supports generations of Yang Tong people to work hard, creating a beautiful Toarey Yang today, and will certainly create a brilliant tomorrow. Yangtong Town has a long history. Zangdun in the town is a Neolithic cultural site, while Baodun, Guadun and Fudun are cultural sites of the Han Dynasty. The resident of the town government is Yin Ping County in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Yangtong Town also has a glorious revolutionary history. 1940 In September, the CPC Toarey Yang County Committee and Toarey Yang County Anti-Japanese Democratic Government were established here. Liu Shaoqi, Chen Yi, Li Yimang, Jin Ming and other proletarian revolutionaries of the older generation once worked and fought here. 1August, 949, Toarey Yang County was revoked and returned to Shuyang County. In 2000, with the approval of the Provincial Civil Affairs Department, the original Yinping Township was changed to Yangtong Town, which brought new opportunities and vitality to the economic development of Toarey Yang. Accompanied by the spring breeze of reform and opening up, the old and young Yang Tong is striding forward with a brand-new attitude.
