Today is the 20th day of my self-driving tour in China. In the morning, I set off from Liping County in Southeast Qiandongnan, Guizhou Province, and now I have arrived at the ancient city of Longli in Jinping County.

The specific route is: Liping County—>Li Tiantian—>Provincial Highway 202—>Longli Ancient City.

Today I encountered extremely poor road conditions again on Provincial Highway 202. Although the scenery along the way is beautiful, the road is being repaired for tens of kilometers. It is not possible to fix it soon, so it is suggested that those who want to go to Longli Ancient City from Liping should take the expressway instead.

After a dusty and swaying journey, we finally arrived at the ancient city of Longli in Jinping County.

The parking lot at the east gate of Longli Ancient City is relatively large, the parking fee is three yuan per hour, and the ancient city does not charge tickets.

There is another reason for choosing the East Gate parking lot. The Red Army’s Long March Longli Profile Stele is in the East Gate parking lot. Later, I searched a lot in the ancient city of Longli and asked the security guards in the parking lot and the residents in the city. I was told that there were no other sites of the Red Army anymore. To be honest, it was a pity.

During the Long March, the Red Army passed through the ancient city of Longli twice.

On September 15, 1934, the Red Sixth Army passed through Longli when it marched northward. On September 23, the Longli soldiers were divided into two groups and entered Jianhe County. At that time, the residents of Longli Ancient City mistook the enemy's propaganda, and the whole city ran to the mountains to hide, leaving an empty city. When the Red Army left Longli Ancient City, people returned home and found that their property was not lost at all. They saw many slogans left by the Red Army. , Propaganda of the Red Army advocates, deeply moved by the strict discipline of the Red Army not moving the people.

On December 18, 1934, the Ninth Red Army Corps came to camp in the ancient city of Longli. This time, instead of running away, the people of Longli organized themselves to welcome the arrival of the Red Army.

Today's Longli Ancient City, unfortunately, can no longer find any ruins and relics left by the Red Army's Long March.

Although there are no more sites of the Red Army in the ancient city of Longli, the unique ancient buildings in the ancient city of Longli still attracted my attention.

Speaking of the history of the ancient city of Longli. It can be traced back to the eleventh year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1378). Liping and Wu Mian led the Miao and Dong peasant uprising and conquered Jinping, Liping and the Hunan Passage. Zhu Yuanzhang, the sixth son of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, led soldiers from nine southern provinces to suppress it. In 1385 Suppress flattening, keep troops to guard, and implement military settlements. Because Longli is located in an important place, with a vast basin, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and rich products, it was selected as an ideal place to live and station troops. Longli was set up to guard thousands of households. Huguang Dusi Wukaiwei. Wu De was appointed as Qianhu and Jingfu as the town of Fuzhou. In order to make the sergeants "have the tendency to depend on each other and have peace of mind", it was implemented that one person in the army should go with the whole family, and relatives came to Longli with the army. Those who join the army are called military households, and they have been stationed on this land for generations.

After more than 600 years of evolution, Longli has formed an ancient town dominated by Han people, integrating military and defense.

The current ancient city covers an area of ​​nearly 50,000 square meters, with 760 households and more than 3,000 people. The planning layout and residential buildings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties have been completely preserved. The ancient city of Longli is divided into four gates: East, South, West and North, among which Qingyang Gate (East Gate) is the grandest of the four gates, the most iconic building, and the best preserved. A building where soldiers stood guard was rebuilt as a drum tower in the Qing Dynasty when the war ceased.
