From the spring flowers in Du Dong, the spring breeze of the Jade Emperor, to the lonely city of autumn wind and camel bells in Huangsha outside the Great Wall, I don't know how many passes I have passed and how many ruts I have run. The Hanguguan of the New Han An Dynasty and the Shi Hao section of the Song-Han Ancient Road are the only places where the Silk Road passes westward, opening the door to the western regions for the Central Plains. Compared with today's silence, the noise in history is like a dream. When I dream back to the Han and Tang Dynasties, I can see that "Xiongguan is as iron as iron".
After a heavy rain, Xin 'an county in Luoyang was filled with humid Jiangnan atmosphere. In the light rain, I crossed the clear and shallow Jianhe River, and at first glance, the Woods through which the river flowed were lush. This quiet valley, if it weren't for the famous "Hanhan Valley Pass" and "Sitting in the Town", perhaps few people would set foot on it. Historically, it was once a throat fortress and a battleground for military strategists; It is also an economic pass and the only place where the Silk Road passes. Compared with today's silence, the noise in history is like a dream. When I dream back to the Han and Tang Dynasties, I can see that "Xiongguan is as iron as iron".
There are different opinions about Wang Changling's poems about "the bright moon in Qin Dynasty and the bright moon in Han Dynasty". Only the bright moon in Wan Li, shining for thousands of years, is still bright. Among many sayings, one thinks that this "Han Pass" refers to "Han-Han Valley Pass". Regardless of whether this statement is right or wrong, there is no doubt about the position and role of the "ancient view of Han history" in ancient times.
There are two Hangu Pass in China, one is Qin Pass and the other is Han Pass. Qin Guan was founded in the Warring States Period and is now located in lingbao city, Henan Province. Khan Hangu Pass in Xin 'an County was built in three years (BC 1 14) when "Qin Pass" moved eastward.
Explore the jianhe river basin. After about 700-800 meters, you will see the majestic mountain pass standing in the open space of the valley, with the momentum of "one person guarding, ten thousand people can't force". There are two floors in Guanlou, and there are two towers on both sides in front of Guanlou, namely Jiming Tower and Wangqi Tower. Although it is now dilapidated and overgrown with weeds, the overall outline is faintly visible, and the rammed soil layer of the Han Dynasty can be seen far away.
The official building in the Republic of China retained its repaired appearance. Standing at the foot of Guanlou, looking up at the mottled bluestone overhead and overlooking the long ancient road at the foot. On the west side of the door, there are several powerful characters-Kang Youwei's "Cold and Cold Ancient View". "I'm going to ride a cow for Yin when I'm successful", "I'm going to inquire about the history of Zhou and Zhu, and I'm going to Xiongguan to see the ships of the Han Dynasty", as well as the couplets of Dongximen, which tell the ancient customs in a few words.
The building above Guanlou is the enemy building, and weeds are crawling all over its forehead. Only through imagination can we outline the "majestic face" of this building. Standing on the Guanlou, I seem to vaguely see that more than 2,000 years ago, there was a high wall stretching over the mountains, reaching the bank of the Yellow River in the north and the Luohe River in the south, forming a barrier for dozens of kilometers. Only through the city gate can you get in and out of this pass.
The Silk Road is long and continuous, from the spring flowers in Du Dong and the spring breeze of the Jade Emperor to the lonely city in autumn wind and camel bells in Huangsha outside the Great Wall, during which I don't know how many passes I have passed and how many ruts I have run. The westbound Silk Road must pass through the Han-Han Valley Pass, and the exit from the Han-Han Valley Pass must also pass through the Song-Han Ancient Road.
