The Historical Evolution of Heilongguan Town

Heilongguan has a long history. As early as the twenty-first year of Taihe in the Northern Wei Dynasty (AD 497), Heilongguan was ruled by Shicheng County and coexisted with Pingchang County. It was located in Guxian Village, Puxian County, and divided the former Puzi County into Shicheng and Pingchang counties. In the first year of the Northern Zhou Dynasty (AD 579), Shicheng County was renamed Puzi County. In the first year of Emperor Kai of Sui Dynasty (AD 58 1 year), Puji County was moved from Heilongguan, and its city was abandoned. Heilongguan has been a county magistrate for 84 years, with a history of 1500 years.

Heilongguan was called Zhang Cun bifurcation in ancient times. In the Ming dynasty, due to military needs, tucheng, barracks and checkpoints were built here. Because of the dangerous terrain, it forms a natural pass, which is the throat of Pingyang to the western hills and a battleground for military strategists; Surrounded by mountains on three sides, people used to call it "Longkou" or "Black Dragon". The word "dragon view" was first put forward in Pingyang Old Governance, which summarized the "shape victory" of Puxian County. Zhiyun said, "Longguan Xiongzhen is in the east, Lushan Mountain is in the north, rivers are in the west and mountains are in the south." In the seventh year of tomorrow (A.D. 1627), Puxian County established and restored the county government. When talking about the Black Dragon Pass, he said that "the temporary residence of the Black Dragon is the key", and the Black Dragon Pass gradually became famous. The person who really replaced Zhang Cun Cha was called Heilongguan, which started in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties.

During the reign of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, the world went from chaos to justice and became increasingly peaceful. The Heilongguan military camp was laid off, the people moved, and the development and construction of Heilongguan began. Because it is a group development, Heilongguan is not the only village, but a mixed family, blending together. Between surnames and regions, regardless of the number of family members, the location in the southeast and northwest, and the length of settlement, villagers treat each other with sincerity and live in harmony, which has become a newly formed state of ceremony and music. The folk customs here are simple, the people are simple, pure and kind. Patience without fear, gentleness without cowardice, frugality without rudeness, directness without recklessness. Treat people from all corners of the country well and make friends from all corners of the country. Officials, businessmen and victims from other places mostly stay here, choose their neighbors and live in harmony. Heilongguan never deceives strangers, never excludes others, and always "builds a car behind closed doors", just like the sea of rivers, constantly enriching, expanding and developing itself.

Heilongguan is a rocky mountain area, which belongs to denudation and erosion structure landform. The bedrock of the mountain is exposed, the climate is cold and the frost-free period is short. As "Pu Xianzhi" said: "The wind is high and air-cooled and it is not suitable for planting cotton. The stone bones and soil are also thin, and they are planted late and harvested early. They are afraid of frost and drought, and they have more fields and less manure. Good years are equal to middle age. " But there are abundant forest and grass resources, good natural vegetation and rich underground mineral resources, mainly coal, iron and other minerals. The territory is high in the east and low in the west. With the ups and downs of the terrain, the valley between mountains is deep, and mountains, rivers, slopes, ditches and headlands all have shapes. The farther west, the deeper the coal mine is buried, and it is not easy to mine; But the better the light and heat conditions, the more fertile the land, which is suitable for the growth of crops, cash crops and various fruit trees.

From the Ming Dynasty until the early 1950s, the political, economic and cultural center of Heilongguan Town enjoyed music. Hua Le used to be the seat of Li, Zhen, Lu and Qu, and it was also "the largest market in Puxian County, with no free days in the month". Here, business is prosperous, customers gather, firms are well-known, shops are numerous, culture is developed, and education is emphasized. Hua Le is brilliant and beautiful.
