The Natural Scenery of Yangzhai Town

The old road is vicissitudes. The old course of Yangzhai Yellow River is the lower reaches of Huaihe River. Originated in Tongbai Mountain, Henan Province, it flows eastward through Anhui and Jiangsu and enters the sea. The Huaihe River is 1000 kilometers long and belongs to our country.

An important geographical dividing line between north and south. Due to the influence of natural conditions, the Yellow River captured Huai River twice in the second year of the Southern Song Dynasty (1 128) and the sixth year of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty (1494). It has had a far-reaching impact on the old course of the Yellow River and its surrounding geographical environment.

Geomorphological changes along the Chaoyang side of Feng Ming Old Road. About 7000 years ago, in the Paleolithic Age, the global climate was warming, the sea level rose and the coast invaded westward on a large scale. In today's Laoyangzhai Town, there are Beisha, Xiaogang, Xiaomazhuang, Lixin and Houshagang to Dadun, Beiwan, Nanwan and Shagang in shi zhuang zhen, and then to the post of Jianhu and Longgang in Du Yan. This northwest-southeast sandbar can vaguely tell the situation of coastal westward advancement in that year. Because the Huaihe River brought a lot of sediment before the pre-Qin period, an alluvial plain was formed. In the east of the ancient Yellow River, there have been human activities, belonging to Qingliangang culture and Longshan culture.

About 3-2 thousand years ago, the global climate became relatively cold, the coastline pushed eastward, and the Huaihe River estuary also moved eastward. Yu Gong said, "The Huaihe River runs from Tongbai to Si and then eastward into the sea." This is the situation in the pre-Qin period; Guangxu's "Funing County Records" records: "Before the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Beisha was the seaport." The old "Funing County Records" volume 23 also contains: "Shanyangdu is a transshipment channel. To recruit a Liao boatman, you must pass through Yang Shan and Sheyang Lake and enter the sea from Beisha. " Accurately pointed out that before the Tang Dynasty, the Huaihe River levee and its surrounding land had been formed in Yangzhai area, and left the story of Li Shimin Zhazhai's eastward expedition to destroy the armed forces in Huaidong.

After the Yellow River captured the Huaihe River in the second year of the Southern Song Dynasty (that is, 1 128), a large number of mud yarns entered the Huaihe River and rushed into the sea, which led to the elevation of the riverbed of the old Yellow River and the downward movement of the estuary, and the original coastal continental shelf formed an alluvial plain. In Volume 52 of Running Water Golden Mirror, there is a record of "stepping into Haikou in the Year of Lading" and "forgetting the unification of Qing Dynasty". "Huai' an House" records that "in four years of Wanli, Huiqing Bay became a river ... the ladder was always closed to the sea". It means 1576, the entrance of the sea is not far from the ladder leading to Kanto. It was not until 1885 that the Yellow River moved northward. Today, the basic form of the old road is that the riverbed is high and the east embankment is wide. During the reign of Han Xingping, Sun Jian, the father of Wu Dong Emperor Sun Quan, was appointed as the county magistrate of Du Yan. Sun Ce, his son, was sent to Yangzhai area in the lower reaches of Huaihe River to survey the terrain and do a good job.

In order to prepare for the battle with Cao Cao, at the end of Sui Dynasty, Li Shimin camped in a sheep village and wiped out the remaining local armed forces. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the local gentry Yang Cheng and his son rose up and established themselves as the "king of the East China Sea" based on the two villages in the north and south. Later, they joined hands with the Zhang Shicheng branch of the Yanmin Rebel Army to defend the lower reaches of the ancient Yellow River and resist the Mongolian court. On the megatron side, Yang Zhai was named after it and gradually flourished. Zeng Guofan, governor of Liangjiang River, led the river chief to inspect along the old road, and summoned Funing county magistrate to discuss the scheme of governing the old road of the Yellow River. As far back as the Tang Dynasty, Japanese business monk Ren went ashore from Beisha and returned to the river to inspect, and put forward the idea of building water conservancy facilities. It was not until the 25th year of the Republic of China (i.e. 1936) that the movable dam was built in Danjiagang, Yangzhai. Su Shi, a poet in the Song Dynasty, Mitty, a great calligrapher, and Gong Zizhen, a poet in the Qing Dynasty, went up the river by ladder to inspect the ancient Yellow River. At that time, Gong Zizhen, a great poet in the history of the Ministry of Rites, wrote the poem "The road outside the ladder is wide, and the soul cries at night".

1942 From February 20th to March 6th, the first enlarged meeting of the Central Central China Bureau was successfully held in Shanjiagang, near the ancient Yellow River. Comrade Liu Shaoqi presided over the meeting. On March 9, 1943, the 22nd regiment of the Eighth Brigade of the Third Division of the New Fourth Army fought against the Japanese invaders on the east bank of the ancient Yellow River. Sacrificing 23 people and annihilating 264 Japanese troops was the battle that wiped out the most enemies in Yanfu area. This battle was collected by our military museum as a typical example of how to win more with less.

Great changes have taken place in the old course of the Yellow River since the reform and opening up. In the past, the original production mode of "harvesting once every ten years and ditching the muck with bumps" no longer exists. More than 6000 acres of fruit trees are full of vitality. The comprehensive indexes such as sugar content of Wei, red pepper, golden lion, Guoguang and other products have surpassed similar varieties in Japan and Yantai by the relevant departments of the province. Peaches in spring and early-maturing fruits in summer sell well inside and outside the province, and Yangzhai has become the largest fruit sales area in Yancheng.

"Bees fly in the sky, apples hang in the air, medicinal materials grow in the forest, and fish and crabs are buried in the water", and a virtuous circle of three-dimensional planting, atractylodes macrocephala, Codonopsis pilosula and other medicinal materials, peanuts, rapeseed oil, coordinated development.

In particular, the opening of Yangpu Zhifu Bridge and the completion of the ancient Yellow River Bridge have connected the intercity highways, and the old piles of the ancient Yellow River are full of vitality. It is connected to National Highway 204 in the east, Nanjing Expressway in the west, Huai 'an in the south and Binhai in the north, where merchants gather and trade is prosperous.

Nowadays, the development of the natural scenery tourist area in the old course of the Yellow River has entered the implementation stage. With eight sacred places, such as Fairy Mountain and Pavilion, rich national traditional colors, peach blossom garden-like background and unique natural landscape, the old Yellow River heap will become an important tourist area for people to relax, travel, entertain and communicate. Jia is located on the west side of Yangzhai Town. The famous Battle of Shanjiagang took place here. The battle of Shanjiagang was the battle that wiped out the Japanese aggressors the most in Yanfu area. It fully embodies our military's strategic thinking of stopping with small troops, transferring large troops and dispersing concealment. This battle was included in our military museum as a typical battle with fewer wins.

1March, 94316th, the 22nd Regiment of the Eighth Brigade of the Third Division of the New Fourth Army, under the command of Tong Shiming, deputy head of the regiment, fought fiercely with more than 300 Japanese troops in Huangying, Lianshui County 10 hour, and wiped out more than 300 people 100. Under the cover of night, the 22nd Regiment quietly moved to Jiadan Port, Yangzhai Town, on the east bank of the ancient Yellow River. On March 18, the Japanese army assembled more than 500 enemy troops in Bailugou and Dianhu, and found 22 regiments. At dawn on March 19, the 22nd Regiment and 8th Company were hidden in the position on the east bank of the ancient Yellow River. The Japanese troops in Dianshan Lake passed reconnaissance along the ancient Yellow River and were wiped out by the Eighth Company.

After learning the main attack direction of the 22nd Regiment, the Japanese army dispatched more than 100 Japanese troops at1a.m. to forcibly cross the river under the cover of artillery fire. The Japanese army rushed to the position of the New Fourth Army 30 meters along the beach on the east bank of the ancient Yellow River, and the Eighth Company concentrated its fire on the Japanese army. The enemy was caught off guard, killing more than 60 people, and the remnant enemy fled back to the west bank.

Tong Shiming, deputy head, analyzed that the Japanese invaders came to seek revenge after Lianshui was hit by the New Fourth Army. From a good point of view, there is a great possibility of two charges, which is an excellent opportunity to destroy the enemy.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the Japanese army mobilized more than 600 people from Xue Ji, Dianhu and other places. Tong Shiming saw through the telescope that the Japanese aggressors had several cars to mobilize their troops, and immediately ordered several heavy machine guns of the 22nd regiment to destroy the enemy cars.

The Japanese aggressors organized more than 200 people to cross the river under the cover of more fierce artillery fire and ran to the position of the New Fourth Army. When the east wind blows hard,

The dust raised in front of the position is not conducive to the Japanese aggressors' observation of our position. The New Fourth Army gave full play to the characteristics of close combat and long-range combat to destroy the enemy, organized a whole regiment of troops, fired at the enemy, and grenades blossomed everywhere among the enemy groups. In front of the position, the bodies of the enemy were scattered all over the place, killing more than half of them and fleeing in panic. On the one hand, the Japanese army suppressed his illness with more fierce firepower, on the other hand, it mobilized reinforcements from Dianhu, Xue Ji and Bailugou, and launched a third charge on the 22nd regiment position with more than 600 people. All the soldiers of the 22nd Regiment were not afraid of sacrifice, and launched a life-and-death struggle with the Japanese aggressors. All the light and heavy weapons of the 22nd Regiment fired at the enemy together, and the bodies of the former enemies pressed against each other, so the enemy never surpassed the position of the China People's Liberation Army.

The cunning Japanese army sent a small group of troops disguised as rebels to bypass the rear of the New Fourth Army and set fire to the houses in Dongzhuang, Shanjiagang. The eighth company suffered heavy losses, and some positions were broken by the Japanese army. In order to save strength, Tong Shiming decisively ordered the troops to transfer to Fan Jiadang. Twenty-two regiments quickly withdrew from their positions, and Tong Shiming, deputy head of the regiment, personally commanded the troops to cover the rear. The distance between the enemy and us is less than 100 meter. When the troops retreated to Dashahe Wooden Bridge in Shanjiagang Street, Shan Shiming ordered machine guns to cover and remove the boards on the bridge. When Tong Shiming lifted the last board, a stray bullet unfortunately hit Tong Shiming in the head. Tong Shiming, a 32-year-old deputy battalion chief, died heroically when his comrades carried him to Zhaozhuang, Shanjiagang South.

Zhang Aiping, deputy commander of the third division, has drawn up elegiac couplet. In this battle, the 22nd Regiment of the Eighth Brigade of the Third Division of the New Fourth Army wiped out 264 Japanese troops at the cost of 23 men. In the place where Tong Shiming died, the martyrs who died in the war of resistance were buried. Zhang Aiping, deputy commander of the Third Division, drew up an elegiac couplet to express his condolences.

One port is immortal, and the classics are immortal, helping tombstones to recall the past. The Yellow River is flowing, and the beacon smoke is still blazing. Fortunately, I heard that the drum had lost its loyalty. On the memorial archway in front of the Martyrs Cemetery, a couplet is engraved. Savages bury loyal bones. The grass in the sunset hangs a loyal soul.

After Shagangsha Qin Shihuang destroyed the Six Kingdoms, he unified writing, currency and weights and measures, consolidated his rule and seized power. He burned books at home and built the Great Wall in the north, Wuling in the south, Afangguan in the west and the sea in the east.

According to legend, Ying Zheng got a fairy's whip, which can drive away the mountains. The first emperor handed over the work of building the Great Wall to Meng Tian and others, and kissed himself.

He and his entourage rushed to the East China Sea day and night, just to fill the sea and expand the arable land in the country. When the Dragon King of the East China Sea heard that the first emperor had driven away the mountain, he was upset and worried about his tea and rice, and he was sad all day. One day, the third daughter of the Dragon King said, "Why is Dad unhappy? Can you share my father's worries with my daughter? " The Dragon King of the East China Sea told his third daughter about the first emperor's political victory and reclamation. Yincui gorge thought for a moment, then fell to her knees: "Please ask Grandpa Wu to allow my little daughter to go out of the palace and go ashore to solve the urgent need." Donghai dragon didn't have any good plans at that time, so he had to nod.

Besides, after the three dragon girls landed, they chose a place and waved their sleeves. Suddenly, a beautiful yard appeared in front of them, and the servants were very comfortable in the yard.

At this time, the first emperor rushed to the mountain and saw that the sun had set in the west, and he felt quite sleepy. Seeing a yard ahead, I sent someone to spend the night. When the first emperor saw the face of the Dragon King, he felt relaxed and happy. He took her as his concubine that night. That night, the dragon lady stayed with the first emperor and stole the whip of the first emperor. When she woke up the next day, the first emperor won the government and found herself sleeping with his entourage on the beach wasteland. Last night, the first emperor continued to whip, but the mountain remained motionless. The first emperor was furious when he knew that the whip had been stolen. He took two whips on two mountains and one whip on today's Houshagang, Huang Xie, Lixin and Xiaomazhuang. As long as a whip is drawn on the line from Beiwan in Xingou to Shagang in Shizhuang, the broken mountain becomes sand, which is how the sand in our area is formed.
