The classical masterpiece "Water Margin" writes that there is an important place in Shuipo Liangshan - golden beach, and the large contingent of people and horses of the cottage often passes through here. People reminisce about the story of the Water Margin, often paying great attention to this place, and every life asks: Does the real golden beach exist? If so, where?
What is written in "Water Margin" should have a copy. Yuncheng is the birthplace of the Water Margin story, and people prefer to associate the golden beach in "Water Margin" with the geographically actual Golden Thread Ridge. Because, the Golden Line Ridge is just east of Yuncheng, straight to the foot of Liangshan. Shi Nai'an was familiar with the yuncheng area, and it was natural to write it out by hand.
Ming Chongzhen's "Records of Yuncheng County" records: "The Golden Thread Ridge is in the east of the county ten miles, from the Liangshan Mountains, stretching from east to west for more than thirty miles, with uneven heights, many official willows, hanging like silk, hence the name." This shows that in the Ming Dynasty, The Golden Line Ridge was an important geographical presence in Yuncheng, and the people of the time also listed "Line Ridge Autumn Smoke" as one of the ten scenic spots of Yuncheng.
So, in the plains that are as open as the ground, how can there be mountains? This ridge is recorded in the history of the ancients, is there still a trace today?
some. Ordinary people do not necessarily pay attention, and those who are careful have clues to examine. According to the "Yuncheng Water Conservancy Chronicle", from the 50,000th of the topographic map surveyed and mapped in 1954, it can be seen that there is indeed a long ridge around Yuncheng and Liangshan. Naturally, this ridge is not a stone ridge, but an earthen ridge. The ridge starts from Tangdian on the east bank of the Songjin River in Yuncheng, and goes northeast through Hongmen Factory and Chen Tun, and then passes through Guotang, Cai Lin and Si Ya in Liangshan County to Reach Zhangbakou in Wenshang County. The ridge is about 2 km to 5 km wide and 2 m to 3 m above the ground on both sides. Guo Tang went northwest through Bao Yao, Wang Yao, and Ni Lou, and the trend roughly overlapped with the current borders of Yuncheng and Liangshan County. This ridge forms a "human" glyph intersection with the front ridge, and the height and width are not as good as the front ridge. The third tuling ridge runs from Xiaomintun in the east of Yuncheng County to Huangya in Jiaxiang County. According to the analysis of technicians, these soil ridges of sandy soil seem to be formed by the Yellow River slide, and some people say that this is a yellow river channel that is not long for a long time, because the lower reaches of the Yellow River are above-ground rivers, so it is diverted to form a strip-like highland. As for the time of formation of the tuling, it may be after the Yellow River migrated south to Liangshan Po in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty.
In the fifth year of Qing Xianfeng (1855 AD), after the Yellow River broke through in the Lankao Copper Tile Box, "three streams of flooding water, all converged to Zhang Qiu's transit", and seized the Daqing River into the sea at Yushan in Dong'a County. Because the original course of the Daqing River is "less than one-third deeper and wider than the Yellow River, and the ordinary water has overflowed", the area around Liangshan has become a natural flood detention area of the Yellow River. Due to its high terrain, Golden Thread Ridge has become a natural barrier for the yellow water to invade the south.
In the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, using the flood of Dongping Lake to prevent the tide from flooding, in the spring and winter of 1950, from Yuncheng and Nanwang counties to work, using the higher terrain of the northern line of the ancient golden line, the golden line of the ridge embankment was built: from the west to the north of the Tang Temple in Yuncheng, running east-west to Ni Lou, crossing the Songjin River to Baoyuan out of the Yun Realm into Nanwang County, through Guotang, Cailin to Yuankou to connect with the old canal embankment, the standard for repairing the embankment: the top width is 3 meters, the slope is 1:2, and the elevation above the ground is generally 1.5 meters to 2 meters. After the completion of the Dongping Lake embankment in 1958, the embankment of the Golden Line Ridge west of the Temple was rebuilt into a reservoir embankment, and the Golden Line Ridge Embankment west of the Shipai Lost its flood control effect, so the state abandoned management, and the masses took the soil year by year and destroyed the planting land, resulting in the Increasingly Uneven and Uneven Level of the Golden Line Ridge Embankment, but the traces still exist.
There are many theories about the connection between the Golden Thread Ridge and the Good Man of the Water Margin. Mr. Ding Yonglin, a Water Margin researcher who is familiar with the history of the yellow river governance, has written some about it. He said: In the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty, Song Jiang led a peasant uprising, and once used Liangshan Po as a base area, leaving many relics on the Golden Thread Ridge. Cai jialin village in Xuji Town, 11 kilometers southeast of Liangshan, is located on the Golden Line Ridge, and there is a highland in the west of the village, and it is said that the water division of the Song River rebel army fought triumphantly and often dried the armor here, so it was called "Sunning Armor Forest". Later, it was called "Cai Jialin", referred to as Cai Lin. There used to be a "Shema Pavilion" in the west of the village, but it no longer exists. 11 kilometers south of Liangshan, the current Boxing Town, Boxpu Village, also located on the Golden Line Ridge, is said to be the Song River rebel army dock, so it is called "Ship Residence Fort", later called "Boat Fort", and evolved into "Quanpu", which was changed to "Fist Shop" in the late Qing Dynasty, and the "Zhugui Hotel" described in the Water Margin is here. At that time, the righteous soldiers of all sides who defected to Liangshan often used this place as a foothold, and Zhu Gui sent a boat to pick them up, cross the water, go to Liangshan, and join the rebel army. The famous "Golden Beach" in "Water Margin" is also here.
"Line Ridge Autumn Smoke" is listed as the ten scenic spots of ancient Yuncheng, which shows people's love for Golden Line Ridge. This landscape has attracted many literati and tourists to visit the chant. Zhang Cao of the Ming Dynasty praised in a poem:
Autumn forest white dew has no cause, and the curved shore is high and low willow color new.
The thin leaves are hanging down as a line, and the light smoke is like spring.
Drifting with the wind, the fragrance is cold, and the water is slightly stacked with waves.
Stretching around the resort, several times dismounted to stay with tourists.
For the Golden Thread Ridge, Chen Liangmo of Yuncheng Zhi County in the Qing Dynasty also inscribed such a poem:
Ling is named after the golden willow, and the willow comes to the autumn to be jingbeiqing.
The smoke locks are weeping willows, and the breeze is swaying and painting is difficult to achieve.
History is gone, and the record is still new. The "Autumn Smoke of The Line Ridge", which was included in the Ten Scenic Spots of Yuncheng, is still beautiful in the hearts of yuncheng people. And many topics about the Golden Thread Ridge are still people's drinking and talking.
