The Historical Story of Pingqiao Township in Jintang County

Zhaojiadu: The Pioneering Land of Zhao Brothers (Figure)

When it comes to the place names of Jintang County, the most important thing to mention is Zhaojiadu, a famous town in Sichuan, which is now Zhao Zhen.

Zhaojiadu lies in the north.

The confluence of Qingbaijiang River and Pi River is also called sanjiang town.

Guanghan County was built in the sixth year of Emperor Gaozu, and Zhao Zhen was administered by the county.

Most of them were famous in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

In the second year of Tang Xianheng, Jintang County was built and became the resident of the county government.

Zhaojiadu, with a long history, has fertile land and even been hit hard by the war.

In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the Zhao family was at war for years.

Crossing has not been spared.

In the tenth year of Xianfeng in Qing Dynasty, the peasant army Lan Dashun bloodied Zhaojiadu and was black and blue all over.

Gui。

Hundreds of years' feat of "Huguang filling Sichuan" in Qing Dynasty injected endless water into this land.

This sound

The huge team moving to Sichuan is like a tenacious seed of life, which is scattered on this land, thrives and bears numerous fruits.

At the end of Xianfeng in Qing Dynasty, two brothers Zhao, whose ancestral homes were Xiaogan Township, Macheng County, Huguang, lived with their families and slept in the wind.

Walking during the day, avoiding bandits and plagues, escaping from the mouth of snakes and beasts, being caught by this upsurge of entering Sichuan, all the way to Chuandong Avenue.

Advance westward to Jintang Lotus Wharf.

Standing at the Lotus Pier, the Zhao brothers saw the long Longquan Mountain.

Pulse, the whole mountain is like a buckling and entrenched dragon.

They climbed the ridge and came to Jintang Mountain, but the mountain was deep.

Deeply attracted, the trees in the mountains are lush, the smoke is dense, the distant green hills are faint, and the three rivers are as silver as jade.

Generally speaking, the division of open space is uneven.

What a treasure trove of feng shui! Zhao's heart

I was overjoyed and urged all my family to follow me down the mountain, so I settled down from Lanjiadian to Zhao Jiaxiang at the foot of Jintang Mountain.

The so-called "inserting business" means that you write your name on a piece of bamboo or wood and insert it in the enclosed land, and this land belongs to you.

Go home.

Due to years of war, Fiona Fang Fiona Fang has been uninhabited for miles, covered with weeds and countless trees, but it has provided them with.

In order to build a house, it is advantageous.

So they took local materials and settled down, and the two brothers reclaimed and cultivated the land together.

Watering, transplanting rice seedlings and threshing, helping each other, the days are getting richer and richer.

A North River separates Lanjiadian from Hantan.

In the middle of the river, there is an island called "Zhu Heng", which is also advancing.

The only place that Hantan must pass through.

Spring has come, and Hong Tao overflows and gathers like a lake.

The villagers are all looking at the river.

Alas, reclamation became Zhao's wish.

Zhao retired as a military officer. He has a unique skill that he can cross the river in a single bamboo boat.

In fact, he was born in Macheng County.

Many people with this skill.

On that day, the villagers opened their eyes: Zhao pulled out a machete pinned to his waist and turned around.

After entering the bamboo forest, I quickly came out with a thick bamboo on my shoulder and a thin bamboo in my hand.

I saw him put thick roots.

Throw the bamboo into the North River, then jump down with a slightly thinner bamboo in your hand and stand firmly on the river with your feet.

On the beach, he drifted in the water. Xu Ruo stepped into the water, and in the blink of an eye, he reached the other side and went to Zhu Heng.

Zhao Bicheng crossed the Beijiang River, set foot on Zhu Heng, and continued to reclaim land.

He found that the harvest of Hantan field was better than that of Lanjiadian.

It is several times higher. Looking at the villagers who came to Lanjiadian one after another, the land is getting scarcer and scarcer, leading the villagers to Hantan.

Entering the business has become his strongest voice.

So he called the able-bodied men in the village and cut bamboo to make a bamboo raft.

Lead the villagers to Zhu Heng, lead them to cultivate on this fertile land and get rich together.

That year, the weather was favorable and Zhu Heng had a bumper harvest. Zhao and the villagers loaded the grain on bamboo rafts and shipped it home.

boat

At the center of the river, there was a sudden gust of wind, and the waves were rough. The bamboo raft rampaged like a runaway wild horse in the river, which was shocking.

The stream came and overturned the bamboo raft, and a raft full of food sank into the river.

Thanks to Zhao's good water, the villagers didn't

Be rescued one by one.

Looking at the bamboo raft rolling in the water in the distance, a year's hard work was wasted, and Zhao sighed.

Rest.

At this time, Zhao thought of the idea of shipbuilding.

In order to facilitate cross-strait exchanges, Zhao built a boat at his own expense and crossed dozens of villagers without land.

Words.

Every fishing season, Zhao takes the villagers' shrimp nets and transports them to the market to sell.

With the prosperity of agriculture and handicrafts, Zhu Heng has formed a prosperous trade market.

Relying on waterway

Convenient transportation has attracted merchants from Tuojiang River Basin and surrounding counties and towns.

Zhu Heng Ferry became the hub of water transportation.

New.

Ships from east, west, north, south and north are all here, and the whole pier is surrounded by water, which is called "Tuojiang Song".

One by one, they echoed over the dock, and people who wanted to enter lined up, while those who returned were busy and orderly.

Loading and unloading

Shuttling through the mountains of goods, I was in a hurry, carrying big bags on my shoulders, but my mouth kept shouting.

The rhythm of the carriage and chicken cart grinding on the slate is slow and urgent, and the pubs, restaurants and teahouses near the pier are crowded.

The whole of Zhu Heng is prosperous.

In order to thank Zhao for his achievements in development and shipbuilding, he did not forget to dig wells.

For the goodness of Yidu, people call Zhu Heng Zhaojiadu as a memorial.

From then on, Yokosuga jumped into Shu.
