What places of interest are there in Peicheng?

Peicheng Town has a long history. The site of Peicheng Town is located 25 kilometers west of the county seat and south of Peicheng Village. Over the years, a large number of pottery fragments, stone axes and arrows have been unearthed, which belong to Neolithic cultural sites and are listed as key cultural relics at the county level. The Tomb of Nine Sisters in Liucun East of Peichengpo is a large Han tomb. Peicheng Town used to be called Quhui Town in Tang Dynasty, and it was named after Quhui River in the west of Peicheng Village. Quhui Town was renamed Peicheng because Pei Du, the famous prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, once lived here. This is the famous Pingwu Yuanji Rebellion in history.

According to historical records, in the 9th year of Tang Chaoyuan and (8 14), Wu Yuanji, the son of Wu Shaoyang, made an insurrection and established a separatist regime in Cai Zhou. Tang Xianzong sent tens of thousands of troops to crusade, but failed. Pei Du (765-839), the prime minister, personally invited soldiers to bid for the war, and the soldiers went to Yancheng and camped in Quhui Town. In the winter of the 12th year of Yuanhe (AD 8 17), Pei Du sent our army Li Shuo to attack Cai Zhou at night and won in one fell swoop. In recognition of Pei Du's achievements in cutting Cai, Pei Du was named "Jin Gong". In memory of Pei Du, the local people renamed Quhui Town Peicheng. At that time, Pei Du lived here for four months and was deeply loved by Yancheng people. He built temples and monuments for him, and the former site of the monument is still there. Now, there are two tall stone tablets in Peijingong Temple (now Peicheng Primary School) in Peicheng Village, which record Pei Du's deeds in Yancheng. Guo Zi, a poet in the Qing Dynasty, once wrote the poem "Feeling over the Quhe River": "Pei Xiang An Lushan returned to Quhe River and won a medal, fighting against the geese in the pool on a snowy night. On merit, you can congratulate the sheep for opening a house, and the achievements are comparable to Han. "

Tang Xianzong sent tens of thousands of troops to crusade, but failed. Prime Minister Pei Du (765-939) personally invited soldiers to supervise the war, and the soldiers went to Yancheng to set up a camp in Quhui Town.

It is said that there is a forest on a slope outside the west gate of Yecheng. Since Pei Xiang and snow settled the chaotic night in Wu, every evening, when I looked at the slope, I saw foggy, drizzling, swaying trees, unpredictable forest and picturesque rain, even though it was a breeze and a bright moon. But when people approached, the clouds dispersed and there was no sign of rain. The next morning, I went to see it again, but I saw the trees were wet. After some rain, the scene of Yancheng Eight Scenes "Pei Cheng Night Rain" came from this. Yang Xiangyun wrote a poem praising: "Honesty, righteousness, courage and boldness make the situation strong, the soldiers unite as one, and make great achievements. Since they were stationed in Yancheng, young people and old people like to say General Pei. " Xie gongyi, a poet in the Ming dynasty, said in a poem: "The autumn rain leaves the ancient city in the dark, the thatched cottage leaves guests to play chess, and a flock of geese are in the sky." I suspect that they joined Cai Sheng that year.
