Patriotic overseas Chinese in Liang Jinshan

Liang Jinshan, 1884, a native of Baoshan, Yunnan. 1903 went to Myanmar on business. Through hard work, Liang Jinshan has become a billionaire among overseas Chinese in Myanmar. In addition, his generous personality has been praised by people from all walks of life and has become a prestigious overseas Chinese leader in Myanmar. The Queen of England also admired Liang Jinshan's foresight. She once summoned him at Buckingham Palace and praised him for his "tenacity, wisdom and foresight". Give him a revolver, a shotgun and a big silver knife. After the September 18th Incident, when the country was in crisis, Liang Jinshan took an active part in the anti-Japanese national salvation movement and led overseas Chinese living in Myanmar to fight against Japanese goods. In order to connect Baoshan and Longling on the east and west banks of the Nujiang River, a bridge must be built on the Nujiang River. At that time, it was estimated that more than 300,000 rupees were needed, but the government only got about 654.38+million. In order to raise funds for bridge repair, Liang Jinshan sold two firms and one company at a reduced price, hired American engineers to design the bridge, then scrambled to repair the road from Lahu to Nankan, transported the bridge-building equipment from Yangon to Lahu by train, and transported huge iron sheets, thick copper cables and heavy machinery to Nankan by car, and then organized mules and horses to be dragged to the bridge-building site on the Nujiang River. With the full support of Liang Jinshan, Huitong Bridge, a copper suspension bridge with a total length of1.23m and a width of 6m, was completed, becoming an important bridge on the Yunnan-Myanmar Highway, the lifeline of China's anti-Japanese war. 1942, Huitong Bridge was blown up to stop the Japanese invasion. Hearing the news, Liang Jinshan burst into tears, but he understood the important principle and said, "Now it's going to blow up. I believe that after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Huitong Bridge will be repaired. " 1944, with the victory of the counterattack in western Yunnan, Huitong Bridge was rebuilt and once again shouldered the heavy responsibility of transporting arteries in the Anti-Japanese War.

As the president of Myanmar Overseas Chinese Association, Liang Jinshan organized and led the "Myanmar Overseas Chinese Anti-Enemy Support Federation" and the "Republic of China Myanmar Salvation Federation" to publicize the War of Resistance. During the Shanghai Defence War, Liang Jinshan donated 4000 taels of silver to General Cai Tingkai. After the Lugouqiao Incident on July 7th, he donated 5,000 taels of silver to the troops defending Gubeikou led by General Song, 80 trucks and planes 1 frame to the country, and insisted on donating 100 rupiah every month until the victory of the Anti-Japanese War. At that time, he bought more than half of the national salvation bonds distributed to Yunnan by the National Government. 1942, the Japanese invaded south on a large scale, and Myanmar was in a hurry. Liang Jinshan used its own company's 120 trucks for free and rented 80 vehicles from other companies to transport 654.38+10,000 tons of international aid accumulated in Yangon day and night. In order to support the Anti-Japanese War and save the country from peril, Liang Jinshan gave everything and worked hard. The Japanese army learned that Liang Jinshan was an overseas Chinese leader who actively resisted Japan, and listed him as a prisoner, in an attempt to use his reputation and assets to conquer Myanmar and attack Yunnan. As a result, Liang Jinshan abandoned all his possessions that he had worked hard for decades in Myanmar and returned to the motherland overnight.

After the founding of New China, Liang Jinshan successively served as Chairman of the All-China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese and Chairman of the Yunnan Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese, and was elected as the representative of the first, second and third National People's Congress. 1In August, 977, 93-year-old Liang Jinshan passed away in his hometown-Fangjiazhai, Pupiao, Baoshan. Jinliang has beautiful scenery and many legends. Throughout the ages, it has attracted many famous writers to climb mountains, visit, spend the summer and recite poems in the north, and feel comfortable with the mountains. Scholars in the Qing Dynasty, such as Zhen Cang, Zhang Juyi and Xu Qiyu, all boarded Liang Jinshan to write poems. For example, Zhang Juyi praised Liang Jinshan's poem:

The first time I entered Ziyun Room,

Showing off the West Shu Mountain in Emei,

Ten miles of green horizontal waterfall,

A cold zone has several Sichuan rings,

Looking up, I feel that the Milky Way is near.

From climbing to climbing,

Shame on me for leaving five barrels of millet,

When will you go back to the customs? Liang Jinshan has many historical sites that attract tourists.

Historical relics include: "Ghost Cave", which is a cave. According to historical records, during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, peasant rebels such as Huang Yongyang and Zhang Jiuwei dug a pit and made a thatched cottage. The cave is very long, so you can go out from Changsha. There are relics such as swords and copper coins left in the cave. There is a flat land on the top of Heidou Mountain near Ghost Cave, covering an area of about six acres. It is said that it is the training ground of peasant rebels-racetrack. At the foot of the racecourse is called Dahueikeng. There is a cave near the pit named Yanzi Rock, which is one of the cottages where the peasant rebels are stationed. There are also stone chairs, stone beds and so on. It is said that this cave once went straight to the "Ghost Liao Cave". However, due to long-term wind and rain erosion, the cave has already collapsed, and the existing cave is only twenty or thirty meters deep.

There is also an ancient village in Shagang near the south of Liang Jinshan, which was once the county seat of Yining County (later changed to Xin 'an County) in the Northern Song Dynasty. China's Dictionary of Geographical Names records: "Yining County was changed in the Song Dynasty. Begging for waste. So it ruled in the east of Kaiping County, Guangdong Province. It is also recorded that Kaiping in the Southern Dynasties was called Yining County, which belonged to Xinhui. In the fifth year of Song Kaibao (AD 972), Yining County was abolished and merged into Xinhui, and Kaiping was changed to Yining County soon. In the second year of Song Taizong Taiping Xingguo (AD 978), Yining County was abandoned and changed to Xin 'an County. The county seat of Xin 'an County was built at the tail of Shagang Ancient Boat, and was abandoned in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty (about AD 1 128). After the founding of New China, there are still abandoned Xin 'an City ruins in Guzhou Village of Shagang. There are two pits in the east and west of Xiluo Mountain in the village, and there is a pit where water flows through the field near Dongkeng, which is the east gate of Xin 'an County. The native land is called the East Gate, and the field near Xikeng is the rampart of Xin 'an County, so the native land is called the rampart. Due to the long time, the ruins of this county have become fertile fields and villages. 1958, the construction of water conservancy and the subsequent land leveling have also abandoned the original remnants of the city foundation. A few years ago, the ancient bricks of the old city wall could be found in the tractor-ploughing station and the field side built on the basis of the original city. 1. Legend of the bronze bell

On the Tuonanling Mountain east of the "Fairy Cave" in Liang Jinshan, there is a ditch-shaped earth tomb, commonly known as the "bronze bell" (symbol).

According to historical records, this mountain scar began in the middle of the Ming Dynasty and has a history of more than 490 years. Although after hundreds of years of wind and rain, this mountain scar has always existed, so people have many legends about this mountain scar.

According to legend, during the reign of Song Xuanhe (about119), there were two big clocks in Guboluo Temple, the male clock was made of copper and the female clock was made of iron. Men and women fly around the temple every stormy night and return to the temple at dawn to hang themselves. There is a monk in the temple who has a profound way of doing things. He was very dissatisfied with the behavior of these two clocks leaving the temple privately, waiting for an opportunity to punish them. On a stormy night, two bells went out for a private trip. While they were playing on the mountainside in Liang Jinshan, they were followed by monks. The male bell was the first to find out. He told the female bell to roll and flee to the southeast. The male bell rolled fast and the female bell rolled slowly, so he called, "Brother Bear! Wait for the male bell! " Seeing that the monk was about to catch up with her, the female clock, in desperation, rolled all the way down the foot of the mountain and came to Longtangwan. It looks like a mighty river, with no way to go ahead and pursuers behind. Unwilling to be humiliated, Mother Zhong rolled down Longtan Bay and sank to the bottom of the river. Gong Zhong was taken back to Boluo Temple by Taoist priest Gao, strangled with a spell, and never flew out of the temple again. Since then, Boluo Temple has only one bell. There is a deep ditch from Tuonanling to the foot of the mountain, which is considered to be the trace of the rolling of the bronze bell, so it is called "bronze bell style" (Kyle).

This is folklore and nonsense, but according to historical records, Tuonan Mausoleum is the same as a bronze bell (symbol). In the Ming Dynasty, a man named Huang Xiaoyang organized a political party in Tuonanling to oppose the feudal Ming Dynasty. He dug up the soil and built a tunnel-like trench as a city wall to resist the Ming army. After the death of Huang Xiaoyang, at the end of the Ming Dynasty, about 1638, another man named Zhang Jiuwei camped in Tuonanling to clean up the trenches in Huang Xiaoyang. Since then, when Lu Tao and Cai Li cut the west in the military palace in the late Ming Dynasty, they stayed in the camp and dragged Nanling to rebuild this trench. Originally, it was relatively high, but after hundreds of years of wind and rain, only one bronze bell was turned over to form a very high base mark.

2. The legend of blast furnace

There are many legends about "blast furnace" One is that Taoist Liang Jindao once exploded here. The other is this article.

What I said.

In the Liang Jinshan browsing area, there is a huge stone standing halfway up the mountain, like a big steel furnace, which attracts many tourists. This boulder, known as the "blast furnace", is said to have been left by Nu Wa when she tried to fill the sky with five-colored stones. It not only fills the sky with stones, but also saves people with alchemy.

There is also a magical legend about blast furnace. That was after the goddess mended the sky. Legend has it that a long time ago, at the foot of the mountain in the east of Liang Jinshan, there was a village where men plowed and women wove, and people lived a carefree and well-fed life. Suddenly one year, people got a smooth plague, vomiting and diarrhea, and many treatments failed. Many people have died of illness, and the whole village will suffer. Suddenly, someone remembered that the "blast furnace" of the goddess of mending heaven was still in the East Haikou, saying that as long as it was found, putting colorful stones from Liang Jinshan into the furnace to refine the elixir could save lives. At some point, a burly, mighty and handsome boy came out of the crowd and volunteered to find an alchemist. This boy is called Erlong. Everyone was very moved when they heard that Erlong was going to find an alchemist, so they prepared dry food for him and packed his bags. The next day, Erlong walked eastward with luggage, a shotgun and a sword on his back. When he came to the valley where grotesque rocks cut through the sky and cliffs, he saw a huge snake lying across the valley, with a head like a hill and a waist so thick that four people could not surround it. His mouth was wide open and his tongue licked like a torch. As soon as it saw Erlong, it jumped at it. Erlong raised his shotgun and fired several shots, but the serpent still approached him. Erlong drew his sword again and struggled with the serpent. The two dragons with both wisdom and courage finally hit the key part of the serpent, and the serpent was killed on the spot. Erlong walked out of the valley and continued to March eastward. Not far away, I came to a forest covered with towering old trees. There was a loud noise, and a lion with claws jumped out. Just at that moment, Erlong took the sword and split at the lion, only to see people jumping up and down, one left and one right, shaking the ground. After more than ten rounds of hard work, the lion was finally cut off by two dragons and one sword and fell like a hill. Erlong went through all kinds of hardships and finally found a "blast furnace" in Dongdao.

The "blast furnace" was found, and people rushed to tell each other, all smiling. We set up an alchemy furnace together, put colorful stones in it, and refined it for six days and six nights, and then refined the elixir. People took the elixir of life, and all the patients in the village recovered immediately.

Up to now, the blast furnace is still at the waist of Liang Jinshan, and there are Snake Mountain and Lion Mountain not far from the east of Liang Jinshan, which are good places for people to visit. In addition to the above-mentioned historical sites, there are many beautiful images in Liang Jinshan, such as the off-net fairy and the beauty in red dress.

After the reform and opening-up, Liang Jinshan has been planned as a key tourist area in Kaiping, with numerous peaks. With the attention and support of the county (city) and town government, the scenic spots within the jurisdiction have been comprehensively planned, and special funds have been allocated to maintain the scenic spots and increase the necessary facilities. Many pavilions have been built, cement roads around the mountains have been built, and roads leading to scenic spots have been built, winning along the way. What I have seen and heard is really like what a poet said. There are also children's playground, swimming pool, karaoke hall and restaurant in the park. Beautiful scenic spots and thoughtful service industry add color to Liang Jinshan tourist area and make Xiang Qiao Kaiping more attractive.
