Longyan camp in Zhangzhou city belongs to one of the oldest street names in the area, and was called Longyinghai in the Song Dynasty. It was not until the Qing Dynasty that it was called Longyan Camp according to the homonym of Minnan dialect. Founded in Tong Yuan in the Ming Dynasty, it became the headquarters and palace of the Taiping Army after the King conquered Zhangzhou in the third year of Tongzhi (1864), which led to national historians.
According to textual research, it was confirmed that the Taiping Army took the route of Jiangxi and Fujian, went straight down Longyan to Shanghang, successfully attacked the city in June 1864+ 10/4, and was forced to retreat in May 15 the following year, and stayed in Zhangzhou for half a year. Li Shixian, the king of Stone, lives on the second floor of the Tong Yuan Houdian near the city wall. Because of this precious history, in June, 1988, 10, Zhangzhou city approved the establishment of a monument called "Stone" cultural relics protection unit.
However, there are different opinions about Li Shixian's performance in Zhangzhou. Li Shixian is meeting Li Xiucheng's cousin. He is brave and good at fighting. On the eve of the fall of Tianjing, he took the initiative to lead some Taiping rebels to break through the encirclement of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and fought bloody battles in Jiangxi, Fujian and Guangdong provinces in an attempt to distract the Qing army and relieve the pressure of Tianjing. Finally, it was determined that Jiangxi crossed Fujian and marched eastward into southern Fujian. In September of the lunar calendar, Wang Shi sent troops to Lianke Dingzhou, Yongding, Longyan, Pinghe and Nanjing. In June, 5438+04, the city of Zhangzhou was occupied from Ximen, and then the victory was extended to Xiao Yun, Changtai, Zhangpu, Zhao 'an and other counties.
The old people in Longyan camp have been handed down from generation to generation, all telling the story that during the period when the Taiping Army entered Longyan camp, the military discipline was strict, and people loved their people like children, and people did not live in the backyard. Anyway, Zando. Not only does almost the whole community say so, but it is basically a palace. The author asked many ten-year-old women, and they handed down the Taiping Army just like the Red Army!
However, the "Zhangzhou County Records" also recorded that Zhangzhou County fell, and the Taiping Army wantonly burned and killed more than 100,000 men, women and children in urban and rural areas. On the 22nd of the first month of the fourth year of Tongzhi, Li Shixian divided his troops into Zhangpu. In the Qing Dynasty, Ye Tengjiao, the general manager of Zhangzhou Town, and Zheng, the Westernization School, failed to resist, and the whole army was wiped out. 30, Li Shixian Jones scored stone yards, expanding the results. Zhangzhou is basically controlled by the Taiping Army, and there are Taiping flags everywhere!
The mainstream view of scholars is that in many Zhangzhou local chronicles, it is clearly recorded that the remnants of Taiping Army killed many civilians when they entered Zhangzhou. Therefore, the people in Zhangzhou hate the Taiping Army very much, and they call it "long-haired rebellion" on stone tablets and genealogy. The Taiping Army entered Zhangzhou, causing a large number of Zhangzhou people to die in this war. The "long-haired rebellion" has brought worse and deeper suffering to the people of Zhangzhou.
Experts believe that the Taiping Army, the servant of the king, was killed and robbed on the way because of lax military discipline. In addition, when attacking Zhangzhou, there was tenacious resistance everywhere, so after breaking the city along the way, the people began. Throughout Zhangzhou, including Tianbao Town, Zhao 'an and Xiao Yun, there are cemeteries where ordinary people are buried. In fact, Li Shixian's military strategy is super strong. As soon as he captured Zhangzhou, he posted a list, sent troops to seize Wansongguan, adowa the garrison commander to stabilize the city, and recruited troops. Drove the Qing court to destroy soldiers everywhere, which really made Zeng Guofan and Zuo fidget for a while!
In the same month, Chen Guangyuan, the Taiping Army, took him to Liufangzhai Tulou, located on the west side of Hou Yuan Village in Tianbao Town. He inquired, this building was built in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and thousands of people lived together. The wall thickness is 1.2m, the building door faces south, and the door width is1.2m. There are 96 halls in the whole village. Chen Qiong, the head of the club, openly boycotted the Taiping Army behind closed doors. Chen Guangyuan was furious and died in the village. His wife and husband led the public to continue the attack. The Taiping Army dug tunnels to attack the collapsed walls of the village, killing and injuring more than 3,000 men and women in the village.
The original site of this village has become a part of Wan Li Banana Garden. However, there are still two tombstones, which prove that the Taiping Army attacked and collapsed the village wall. Zhangzhou puppet show once had "burning six hospitals and six villages", which is what it said. The "Tongzhi Bingyin Year" on the tombstone is five years of Tongzhi (AD 1866), which is consistent with the record in Zhangzhou Fuzhi. The tombstone is engraved with the words "loyalty given by Emperor Qing Qin", which is an honor given by the Qing court and a "tomb of men and women who died in the countryside", indicating that the superiors were buried together according to the specifications of "martyrs".
The objective and neutral point of view is that history must be divided into two parts, and the Taiping Army is regarded as a scourge, leaving a one-sided record. History is always written by winners, and Qing history will never be soft on Taiping rebels. Let's be masters, let's not compromise. But like the stone turtle in Zhangzhou, it was specially built by later generations to commemorate the Taiping soldiers and people who died in the war. Those who die for the great cause and die for their ideals should enjoy the incense of future generations. This unique historical evidence has aroused great interest of experts in the history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
In a word, history is not a girl who dresses up with others. All kinds of historical sites of Taiping Army entering Zhangzhou should be dialectically analyzed to restore the historical truth. For example, when the Taiping Army attacked the city, the Zhangzhou county magistrate of the Qing Dynasty really threatened a large number of people to enter the city with weapons and defended with the Qing soldiers. It must be true that many people who participated in military defense died in the disorderly army before and after the city was broken. But it may not be able to prove that the Taiping army came all the way and saw someone cut a knife. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom dared to resist foreigners, and the mainstream should affirm it. The founding father and the founding leader are sure!
(Longyan camp four-eye well used by Taiping soldiers)
In Zhangzhou, there is also a story of Taiping Junbao. It is said that the people at the bottom of the Xiangjiang River learned that the city had been broken and helped the defeated Qing soldiers sail offshore. Seeing that the Taiping army killed the river, the soldiers and civilians who were not on board were hacked to death. Taiping army pursued archery along the river, but most of the ships had reached the river after all, and Taiping army could do nothing. At this time, the captain ordered the soldiers to swim into the boat. At the critical moment, Wang's ship suddenly broke out in flash floods and waterfalls, and the Taiping rebels who launched the water had no time to escape ashore, were swallowed up by the water and did not survive. So the boat people have been handed down to this day: "Long-haired anti-king ship." The boat is buried in the water! ".Above, obviously the writing trace is too heavy. Even if it is really a flash flood, it is just a chance encounter.
Of course, there are also many records in the history books that Taiping Army burned down the academy. For example, Songzhou Academy and Wenchang Academy in Zhangzhou are all said to have been set on fire by Taiping Army. Some experts also questioned this matter. Before serving Wang Fu, Zhangzhou was one of the national languages. Why is it well protected? Stone has a cultural protection group and a management Committee. They are all fans of Taiping Army and die-hard.
The vice principal of the old man in the picture is nearly eighty years old and his name is Huang Maotang. He volunteered to receive tourists and be a commentator here every day. Their slogan is: reverse the history reversed by the Qing Dynasty! The management committee built a reference room for the servant palace of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, which contained various historical materials and related reports. Friends who like this history can always find him!
The above is related to Tongzhi Bingyin Year, and it is about Tongzhi Sharing. I watched "The Year of Tongzhi Ugliness", I hope this will help everyone!
