Guangming Culture Weekend Edition: Liupan Mountain High Purple Plug Chang

Author: Ma Li

To Guyuan. In the distance of the valley and mountains, a series of hills are lined up with the momentum, and the low smoke clouds are high. The distant Great Wall of Qin folds to the east. The Qin people rammed the Great Wall, and the Song people opened the dredging side trenches, all along this line.

Jin Cuibao's "Ancient and Modern Notes on Duyi": "When Qin built the Great Wall, the earth color is purple, and the same is true for Han Sai, so it is called Purple Saiyan." A passage of Yang Dai's text said tear-jerkingly: "I have studied the canon of 'purple plug', but I only know that the soil under the Great Wall is purple." It is said that there are purple flowers under the Great Wall. The soil color varies from place to place on the mainland, including yellow soil, red soil, black soil and so on. Under the Great Wall, which is thousands of miles long, the soil is purple. Why? Did the people who built the Great Wall survive? ...... The flesh and blood of the common people were mixed with the dirt, and it was exactly purple. The flowers in this dirt are purple, which is really a flower of blood and tears. "In front of the decadent forts, walls, and corner piers, I only stared at the gray and yellow soil of the Warring States era, and I didn't make a sound. My fingers reached out and parted the fluffy autumn grass that was gently shaking in the wind, as if I saw the red blood oozing out little by little, slowly spreading out. My heartbeat suddenly tightened, and my eyes penetrated the scattered rubble and cast on the body of the unknown builder. As I was leaving, the twilight silently spread all around, swallowing up the faint light of the sky in a flash. The Great Wall faded into a vague shadow and sank into the night.

The sun and the moon move. The border wall and boundary trench, which stretches for thousands of miles, have long been useless, but it refuses to retreat from people's vision and stubbornly stays in time. Polished by the light of the year, it has become a majestic landscape on the surface, rising to the level of a spiritual symbol. The background set by the ancients is so extraordinary, special behavior, special scenes, leading it to be a baking, and the viewing will suddenly grow a few points.

This section of the Great Wall, built during the reign of King Zhaoxiang of Qin, entered Xiji County in Ningxia from Jingning County in Gansu. More than eighty years ago, autumn was already deep, and the Central Red Army, which had entered the Liupan Mountains, crossed the Great Wall Pass several times. What a heart-pounding picture this is! So solemn, so heavy, and so freehand. Everything is heroic, bright, vast, majestic, epic and solemn. The Great Wall, the Long March, the geographical span are so large, and the influence of the times is so long. Whether it is the soaring posture on the mountains or the footprints of the war, they are all huge marks engraved in history and will not be extinguished for a moment.

On Liupan Mountain, the view is extremely blue. The green under the sky is rushing towards the peaks and ridges, like a wild wave lapping at the floating reef. Fir, maple, birch, linden, incense, aspen poplar, cypress, Liaodong oak, Huashan pine, branches and leaves swaying, scrambling to the sky. The mountain wind plays the notes of Qingyue in the forest. My vision is farther and my thoughts are flying farther. The main peak of this Longshan Mountain was the last mountain climbed by the Central Red Army before it reached the Shaanxi-Gansu region. Deep in the rocks, the hot-blooded soldiers who struggled to go up, the guns provoking the flying clouds, and the shouts of charge sounded in their chests, and they moved forward with one heart.

The condition on the mountain was different back then. Chen Changfeng, Chairman Mao's bodyguard, recalled: "Compared with the snow-capped mountains we have walked before, Liupan Mountain is not the largest, but it is also sixty miles from the top. There were still some trees supporting me when I first went up the mountain, and when I reached the top of the mountain, the trees were gone, only some grass that was dying, and it was more difficult to walk. "The sky is a rolling cloud, the mountains are a sharp wind, and the face is a wet and cool rain, and the officers and men who are full of dust and war smoke are marching more firmly toward the red flag, and their posture is more courageous. The road under our feet stretches toward tomorrow, and everyone's heart burns with the ideal sun, and their eyes are eagerly on the day of liberation. Mountains and rivers are winding, and a ride is farther than a ride. On the blood-soaked path, the flame-like flowers will always bloom.

The winding road is in the middle of the heavy oka, and it is like a streamer. The breeze blows, and Lin Tao stirs up green waves, as if from the clear blue sky hanging from the waterfall. Looking up, it's really high and cloudy! At the top of this reckless mountain, Chairman Mao chanted the "Ballad of the Long March": "The sky is high and the clouds are light, looking at the south and returning to the geese, not a good man who does not reach the Great Wall!" Comrades, the itinerary has been 20,000! Comrades, the itinerary has been 20,000! Liupan Mountain, the peak of Yashan Mountain, the red flag swept the west wind. Today, comrades, when will you tie up the dragon? Comrades, when will the dragon be bound? "The sound of stirring chanting awakens the mountains that have been silent for thousands of years." Not to the Great Wall is not a good man" sentence, casting a magnificent realm, the charm of the atmosphere, the wind is lofty. Even though the smoke is everywhere, the steely warriors are still ambitious.

After crossing Liupan Mountain, the team marched into the area of Xiaochagou in Pengyang County. Chairman Mao lived in the manor house of Zhang Youren, a farmer in Yangwa Village. The cave was dug into the cliff wall, and Chairman Mao lived in the middle of the hole, with kang tables, chairs, wooden cabinets, case boards, and water tanks. This is the first cave hole where Chairman Mao lived after the Red Army set foot on the Loess Plateau. When the old almond tree in the courtyard was under the courtyard, Zhang Youren's descendants mentioned the past, and their hearts were still hot. The soba noodle cake and boiled pepper tea that the family gave to the Red Army seemed to be full of fragrance.

That night, Chairman Mao took advantage of the glimmer of the oil lamp to write down the sentence of Linshan Yonghuai in a telegram. This "Long March Ballad", once polished, there is a new word in the world - "Qingping Le Liupan Mountain":

The sky is high and cloudy, and the geese fly in the south. Not to the Great Wall is not a good man, less than 20,000 trips.

On the peak of Liupan Mountain, the red flag swept the west wind. When will the dragon be bound today?

This magnificent work is embedded in the Red Army Long March Monument on the top of the mountain.

The camp on the Great Wall of Qin is the Jiangtai Fort on the east bank of the Hulu River. The fortress wall is high and encloses a square pavilion barrier. Although the function of rejecting Hu Jingbian in the ancient fortress is still talked about, it is worth the old history. On October 22, 1936, the Red Army soldiers who went out to fight hard ushered in the great meeting here. This day is the day of the victors. The square is full of celebration, how magnificent, how exciting! The joy of the waves of joy dyed the fort with a bright red color.

Trekking thousands of miles, the grandest expedition in the history of world war, the strongest will to be smelted.

The events of time have drifted away year by year, but the border fort on the banks of the river has written down a lot. The physical objects and rare photos displayed in the Huishi Memorial Hall present vivid historical facts: in the Shan Jia Ji in Xinglong Town, Xiji County, Chairman Mao visited the Halal Mosque of Shaanxi Yitang, sat in Kangtou, and had a long conversation with Imam Ma Dehai; At the Great Wall of Pengyang County, Chairman Mao stayed overnight in Qiao Jiaqu and gave his blanket to the landlord Qiao Shengkui's ailing father... Years can not wear everything out, the past in the war, listen carefully, the heart is warm. In the history of the Long March, the figures of each other shone brightly and reflected the earth.

My gaze shifted from Lin Lu to the sky. The sharp blade of the ridge pierces into the evening sky.

Looking up at Liupan Mountain, the heroic Red Army is the peak that pierces the clouds.
