Go east from Xin'anzhuang, pass through Dongjiazhuang Society, and go around a gourd bay, which is Yanwu Township on the border of Pizhou. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

There is Xin'an delivery station here, and then go to the east, there is Wuhe crossing, southwest is about six miles away from Pizhou City, there is Wuhe Gangou Mouth, there is Wuhe River water directly to Laman Lake.

"Xianggong, that is the distance from the mountain, and there is a bridge at the bottom of the mountain, which is very convenient to cross the river."

Fat soap Liu Kedi pointed to a mountain range in the north and said to Yang He.

Yang River looked, and sure enough, there was a mountain range not far away, lush and green, and the shape was towering.

He knows that it is Geyi Mountain, the common name is away from the mountain, it is said to be far away from Yishui, there is the Yuan Xuguo Cemetery on the mountain, there is Mount Tai Palace and Ge Hongjing on the top of the mountain, and there is the Yuande Gong Temple in the sun of the mountain.

This mountain belongs to a famous mountain near Pizhou, and there is the big Yellow Mountain in the northeast ten miles, and it is said that the golden general Su Shi Lie Huan Duan and the Red Jacket Army tens of thousands of people fought here.

At this time, he was on the horse, dressed in soft green clothes, wearing a cloak and wearing warm ears.

Of course, he had the necessary equipment such as a sword, a double horn, and a flintlock handcuff, and he also had a bow and a saber shield on his saddle.

Behind him, Han Daxia, Chen Qiuao, Hu Employment, Zeng Youyu, and Zhang Songtao rode horses to follow, with a color of winter felt and cloak, pinned waist knives, and weapons and shields.

Fat soap Li Liu Kedi led the horse as a groom, and introduced the scenery along the way to Yang He.

Of course, he is very familiar with this piece of Pizhou, and the scenery along the way is just at his fingertips.

After everyone left Xin'anzhuang, they soon arrived at the crossing of the Wuhe River, which is a tributary of the Yellow River, originating from Xujiaquan in Mawang Mountain, Shandong County, and converging into the Clam Lake in the northwest of Pizhou for 25 miles, and converging for the Man Lake in the northwest of the state, and flowing into the Yellow River through the mouth of the Wuhe River.

Although it is a ferry, there is no ferry, because the siltation of this ditch is so serious that it is impossible to sail at all, especially in this dry winter season.

Due to the backflow of the Yellow River, the riverbed embankment is also very high, and it has also become a hanging river.

The ditch is not very wide, and a pontoon bridge is erected on it, and everyone crosses the river directly, without walking the Lizhi Bridge a few miles away.

There was no wind or snow today, the sun was high, but the weather was still extremely cold.

However, although the weather is cold, there are people walking on the road, and when crossing the bridge, it is not just Yang He.

After all, it is a state rule, and this populity is incomparable to nearby places.

Seeing the villagers carrying burdens, although they were in rags and still carrying hope on their faces, Yang He sighed in his heart that what was more terrible than poverty was instability.

I hope that near Xin'anzhuang, the villagers can also walk with confidence in the future.

Soon the group crossed the river, and the opposite side was still a rammed earth road, winding along the embankment of the Yellow River.

Although there were some potholes on this road, it was much easier to walk than the country roads that Yang He had taken before, so they didn't walk long from Xin'anzhuang.

In fact, the faster thing is to take a boat, from the dock of the inspection department to the big river in the south of Pizhou City, it is only forty miles, but Yang He still decided to ride a horse to better understand the places along the way.

All the way through, people can be seen on both sides of the official road, although there are some hills near Pizhou City, but more plains, because it is located on the north bank of the Yellow River, this cultivation conditions are much better than the south bank.

Yang He saw a lot of wheat fields along the way, and winter wheat was planted on them.

Soon, everyone went to Yihedu again, which is only a mile away from Pizhou City, and there is Longxing Temple across the river, which has a medical department and a Huimin pharmacy.

"Xianggong, that's Bange Mountain, when you see this mountain, you will arrive at Pizhou City."

Fat soap Li Liu Kedi also pointed out and introduced Yang He.

Yang River looks, there is indeed a mountain in the northwest of the city, shaped like a half-ge, around the state governance, on the side is the Yi River.

This mountain is more Pizhou scenic spot than Geyi Mountain, then there is Sheep Mountain in the southwest of Bange Mountain, there is Zongshan Zen Temple on the mountain, Chenghua eunuch Xu Ying please name, Ming Xianzong gives the name Zongshan Zen Temple, the military department is still in the book, and the Apocalypse is rebuilt in seven years.

In Wanli, Pan Ji tamed at the junction of Sheep Mountain and Turtle Mountain, and built a horizontal embankment for dozens of miles to prevent the overflow of the river.

Then there is Turtle Mountain in the south of Sheep Mountain, there is Tiger Mountain in the south, a peak in the south is Elephant Mountain, and under Elephant Mountain is the big river crossing, and the local people call it Elephant Mountain Ferry again.

There is also no ferry boat in Yihe crossing, but there are many bridges here, you can walk, there are Liliang Bridge and Jishan Bridge, there are many ancient temples and shrines on the side, there are Ganquan Temple, Juchuan Shrine on this side of the river, there are Longxing Temple on the opposite side of the river, Shengxian Pavilion.

There is also a fishing pavilion, according to legend, Shi Chong once fished here.

When they arrived here, the flow of people was even more bustling, and many villagers wanted to go to Pizhou City, as well as pedestrians and merchants, horses and mules and houses were also common, and there were even shops.

I heard that their accent was similar to Suining, but in fact, the accents of this prefecture and county were not much different.

Seeing Yang He and his party, all the villagers called for their children and daughters, and they all got out of the way in fear.

In this era, it is not ordinary people who can ride horses, let alone ride war horses.

Yang He and the six of them rode war horses, which were more conspicuous than the six BMWs of one color.

A group of people rode over, the sound of hooves was mixed, the air was lofty, full of sharpness and murderous aura, and the first one to lead the horse seemed to be an official errand, so the timid villagers got out of the way.

Just wait for Yang He and the others to pass, and whisper who the leading young man is, such a big pomp?

Yang He and others crossed the river from the Liliang Bridge, Hu Cheng and Zeng Yuce were proud on the horse, Chen Qiuao was silent, and he paid great attention to guarding the surroundings.

Han Daxia looked at it vigilantly, Zhang Songtao was able to follow him as a confidant this time, and he was very happy in his heart, his face was still calm, and he only remembered what he heard along the way.

Fat Soap Liu Kedi led the horse for Yang He, and shouted all the way: "Get out of the way, give way to Yang Xianggong." ”

Yang River looked around, looked at the Yishui under the bridge, this is an important river in Pizhou, flowing through Pizhou from Yizhou, Shandong, and then divided into two, one around the north of the city, flowing into the Yellow River from the southwest, one around the east of the city, and also into the Yellow River through the south of the city, called Xiaoyi water.

There is a bridge on the water, the so-called bridge, which is Zhang Liang's meeting of the Huangshi office.

Of course, at that time, the Yellow River did not take over Huai, but the Xiaoyi water injected into Surabaya.

Moreover, in the Later Wei Dynasty, the Xiaoyi water around the east of Pizhou City has disappeared, and the bridge has been obliterated.

After crossing the Liliang Bridge, enter the Guanxiang in the south of Pizhou City, along both sides of the official road are large and small houses, quite local characteristics, the richer "one ridge", the middle is the hall house, the two sides are bedrooms, kitchens.

The richer "one-stop" is a hall in front and a kitchen, patio, and bedroom in the back.

The triple head and quadruple head of the rich people, as well as some large courtyards that have fallen into a few places, are the homes of the rich.

In addition to these tiled houses, there are many thatched huts and even reed huts, as well as simpler thatched huts.

This shows the gap between the rich and the poor in the local area.

The streets and alleys are also very narrow, with a lot of "one-person alleys", less than a meter wide.

The roads are all dirt, and the winter is fine at the moment, but when it rains a lot in spring and summer......

There was garbage everywhere, a lot of potholes on the ground, in short, it was poorly planned, and the thatched huts were even more inadequate.

And when they arrived at this pass, there were more people of all colors, mixed with fish and dragons, and there were quite a few displaced refugees, with children and daughters, quails and knots, shrunk in the corner of the wall and just trembled.

Looking at all kinds of pedestrians coming and going, the noise is endless, all kinds of crowded scenes, or the group of people is full of interest, Hu Cheng said excitedly: "This state city is lively, not like Xin'anzhuang, where birds don't, Peugeot's little lady can't see a few." ”

once said: "How can it be compared, this is the city, we are the countryside." ”

Yang He shook his head, these two soldiers, they feel like a fish in water when they enter this kind of place, but compared to this side, he prefers Xin'anzhuang, there is a kind of order and tranquility, this place looks similar to that kind of slum, and the good people are not good to survive here.

Han Daxia glared at the two, obviously dissatisfied with their slander of Xin'anzhuang.

Zhang Songtao also had a disapproving look on his face, there are many flies and dogs here, and he still likes Xin'anzhuang.

They rode their horses forward, as before, the pedestrians on the road got out of the way, Yang He and his party were too oppressive, that is, some green-skinned single-looking people on the street, seeing Yang He and others, they didn't dare to come up to harass.

These people have the best eye and know who to mess with and who not to mess with.

Looking at Yang He's appearance, he is either a dignitary, or a newly descended Haoqiang, this kind of person is stained, and he is afraid of being killed, and he will be killed in vain.

What's more, they also saw that Liu Kedi, the fat soap, was leading the horse for Yang He, and they needed to stay away.

Some people who knew just greeted: "Yo, it's Liu Ye." ”

"Master Liu, when will we drink together, I'll invite you over there."

"Master Liu, who is the prince immediately?"

Liu Kedi led the horse arrogantly, ignoring it, but just introduced Yang He diligently.

They passed all the way and soon turned into Ying Yan Street, which led directly to the river crossing, with denser houses and more pedestrians and merchants, and from time to time you could see convoys and coolies on their backs.

The road conditions here are better, there are bluestone roads, there are more buildings here, there are martial arts arenas, there are tax bureaus, there are monks, there are Taoist priests, and there are almshouses.

Xiapi Station is also in the south of the city, and there are several places in the township covenant office, the general shop, and the leaky garden, which are used to bury the bones of the ownerless.

The south of Pizhou is the essence of Pizhou's governance, because it is close to the Yellow River, and almost most of the commercial goods are transported into the city from the Dahedu and Surabaya Ferry.

However, in the hustle and bustle, you can see some signs of houses and shops being burned down, but they are the sins of the rogue Li Qingshan.

After the rise of Li Qingshan, he carried out a wide range of activities, along the canal north to Linqing, south to Yangzhou Shahedian, there were robberies, and also set fire to the south of Pizhou City.

Now Li Qingshan and others are gathered in Liangshan, and they have been hijacking Caoyun, every time a grain ship arrives near Liangshan, it can only be released after Suomi, and each ship is counted in stones.

The same is true for merchant ships, according to the weight of the merchant goods they carry, take three of their goods, and then release arrows to let them go, and no one dares to cross it.

Relying on Cao Yun, he was able to feed so many men and horses under his command, but he also committed public anger and was exterminated only in front of him.

Yang He and others go to go, there are wind and clouds, thunderstorms, mountains and rivers altar half a mile away from the south gate, Guan Xiangcang, there are horse temples, Liu Gang Ancestral Hall, there is a soap tree in front of Liu Gang Ancestral Hall, the tree is ten zhang high, it is said that it is the place where Liu Gang ascends to immortality.

Standing on this side, you can also see the magnificent city of Pizhou City, two feet high and nine feet, twenty steps in Friday, and there are three city gates at the beginning.

The north is called "Zhenbei", the west is said to be "Tongyi", the south is said to be "Wanghuai", but in the seventh year of Zhengde, Zhizhou Zhou Shanghua built the northwest and southeast corners again, built three city gate towers, said "Huanghua" in the south, said "Yongkang" in the southeast, and said "Jinsheng" in the northwest.

When Liu Liunan committed, Zhou Shanghua defended the city according to the army, and the people of the state relied on it to protect it and set up a shrine for it.

Looking at this magnificent city, the flow of people coming and going, Yang He sighed in his heart, decades later, about the seventh year of the Kangxi Dynasty in the Qing Dynasty, the Lunan earthquake, the earthquake caused the river to burst, and the city of Pizhou sank into the water, which has a history of more than 2,000 years The ancient city disappeared from the world.

In the future, this city no longer exists, but the figure of the city in front of him is so vivid.

This is the real Pizhou City in the Ming Dynasty. (To be continued.) )
