Architectural evolution

Xinchang County was a land crossing during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and Huiji County during the Qin Dynasty. At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, Huiji County was located under the county, and Xinchang was a part of the county. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the warlords became independent. In the third year of the Tang Dynasty (896), Qian Liu captured Yue State and established Wu Yue State. In the second year of Liang Kaiping in the Five Dynasties (908), Qian Liu, the king of Wu Yueguo, was located in Xinchang County, and the east was divided into 13 township. 13 townships are Yongshou, Shishun, Changhua, Xiangming and Xinchang. The name of the county comes from the name of Xinchang township, which also implies the prosperity of the newly established county. Xinchang belongs to Yuezhou in the Northern Song Dynasty and Shaoxing Road in the Southern Song Dynasty. The Yuan Dynasty was subordinate to Shaoxing Prefecture, and was assigned to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. In the Ming Dynasty, he was transferred to Ning Shaodao, the minister of foreign affairs of Zhejiang Province. Xinchang in Qing Dynasty belonged to Shaoxing Prefecture, and was placed under Shaotai Road, Xiao Ning, Zhejiang Province. During the Republic of China, Zhejiang Province set up an administrative supervision area, and Xinchang County was subordinate to the second and third districts successively.

1949 On May 22nd, Xinchang was liberated, and the county people's government was established, belonging to Shaoxing area. 1958 1 month, Shaoxing area was revoked and placed in Ningbo area. 1958165438+10, Xinchang county system was abolished, and the administrative area was merged into Shengxian county. 196 1 After September, Xinchang County has been a special area, region and city of Shaoxing.

The story of the past

There are many legends in Xinchang, which are similar in nature to myths. These legends reflect the natural features of ancient Xinchang and the struggle between man and nature.

The most popular story is the story of Dayu's flood control. According to the records of the old county annals, there is a high mountain in the north of the county, named Duwangshan, on which there is the remains of Yu Temple. It is said that Dayu once climbed this mountain to control water. Gu Dongshan, 50 miles east of the county seat, is said to have climbed this mountain when Dayu was in charge of water control, so it was named after looking at the East China Sea. At the foot of Dongshan Mountain, 40 miles east of the county seat, there is a water curtain cave, surrounded by fist-sized boulders, with a layer of silty stone shell outside and stone chips like stuffing inside, called stone steamed bread. According to legend, it was Dayu who managed water here, abandoned the rest of the grain and became a discipline. The Bailang Cave, which runs through the Rocky Mountain, is said to be the place where Dayu harnessed water. Nanyan Mountain in the western suburb of the county seat is steep and looks like a city wall. It is said that Dayu injected sand and stones into the east to control water, which is the background of two fables, Liezi Tang Wen and Zhuangzi Outhouse. The article "Zhuangzi Foreign Things" said: Ren Gongzi used fifty cows as bait, crouched in Huiji, threw a long fishing rod into the East China Sea and fished for more than a year. Suddenly, a big fish swallowed the bait, pulled the hook, set off a mountain of waves, and the struggling big fish roared and rushed into the sea for thousands of miles. After catching the aojiang fish, Ren Gongzi cut it open and dried it, so that the people in southern Zhejiang and northern Cangwu, Guangxi, had several full meals. Ren Gongzi's fishing platform is in Nanyan. The poem "Nanyan Temple, This Sea, People's Fishing Terrace Still Exists Today" written by Qi in the Tang Dynasty is about this.

Although Dayu's flood control and Ren Gongzi's fishing for the aojiang are legends, these legends are all based on the scientific basis of landform changes and vicissitudes. From 6.5438+million years ago to 6.5438+million years ago, the flood on the earth rose, and mankind experienced a long process of fighting against the flood. This is the source of the story of Noah's ark and the flood in China in Genesis.

During the period when worms were immersed in the sea, Ningshaoping was originally a shallow sea, and the sea approached the foothills of Huiji and Siming Mountain. Today, Haoba and Zhang zhen in Shangyu have become bays. South Yanshan Mountain is located in the southeast edge of the submerged zone, with rich land life, mainly subtropical broad-leaved forest and mixed forest. Because the lake is a relatively calm water body, the substances in the water are easy to precipitate. Over time, the sediment flowing into the lake gradually deposited into gravel rocks, and the residues of various animals and plants living in the lake also deposited, which constituted the organic matter in the stratum. The rocks in the water are getting thicker and thicker, and the lakes are becoming more and more silted up. When the earth's crust branches and the ground rises, the high place becomes a hill, and the rocks in the south thus form a sea trail mountain. Now there are a lot of snail shells on the stone walls and caves of Nanyan Mountain, which is the best proof.

The north of Nanyanshan used to be a vast area, but now the hills from Bamao to Shengzhou are an extension of the remaining veins of Dongao Peak, which used to be shallow sea. Geologists believe that this is caused by crustal changes and river bed elevation. The flat top of the mountain has obvious sea traces, which is completely different from the undulating mountain shape in the south.

In ancient Xinchang, mountains and rivers fell, the sea propped up, and floods often occurred, so legends emerged endlessly. These legends not only reflect the natural environment in this area, but also reflect the struggle of ancient working people to transform nature.

Mountains and rivers landform

Xinchang county is a part of the low mountains and hills in Zhejiang and Fujian, surrounded by Tiantai Mountain, Siming Mountain and Huiji Mountain. The topography of the county gradually inclines from southeast to northwest, forming three landforms: southeast mountain, central platform and northwest valley plain. The main peaks are all above 600 meters above sea level. The highest peak is Young Bodhi Peak, with an altitude of 996 meters, and the lowest is located in Wudu Village, Chengguan Town, with an altitude of about 28 meters. Siming Mountain Range enters from the northeast and is located in Shaxi Mountain Range. The two branches of Tiantai Mountain range, which entered from south-central China, were called "the main mountain of one city" in ancient times, and meandered to Anding Mountain, forming a mountain range from Ruo 'ao to the east of Huishan. Huiji Mountain and Pandashan Mountain enter the territory from the southwest, crossing Anshan in Jingping Township and Xikeng in Jingling Town, forming the southern foot of Jingling Mountain. The central part is a hilly platform, generally a basalt platform, with an altitude of 250 to 500 meters. There are large areas such as Huishan, Dashiju, Mengjiatang and Dunshan, with steep edges. On the platform, the fields are terraces and the villages are opposite to each other.
