Historical development

Feiying tower was built in the first year of Tianqi (1621 AD). The base of the tower is built with rectangular red stone, and the body of the tower is built with green brick. There are seven stories in total, each of which is about 35 meters high from the base to the top. There are brick steps in each layer of the tower, and there are bluestone slabs between the layers.

According to the records of Zhou's genealogy of Hehu, the tower builder Zhou (1560-1625), formerly known as Zhouzhu, was named Chengzi and Youhua. He once served as the magistrate of Fengxin County, the magistrate of Zhejiang Province, and the governor of Sichuan Province. Tianqi Xinyou Yongning chieftain she Chongming rebelled, "trapped Chongqing, forced Chengdu.". Zhu Xieyuan, together with Zuo Buzheng, worked day and night to plan the defense strategy, and "encouraged the soldiers and the people to die by virtue of loyalty and righteousness". After fighting hard, he calmed down the rebellion, "Xie Yuan entered the vice governor of the capital, toured Sichuan, and turned to the left as the political envoy.". In February of the fifth year of Tianqi of emperor Xizong of Ming Dynasty, he died at home. Chongzheng Jisi (1629 AD) presented it to the Minister of Dali temple.

After its completion, Feiying tower has gone through many vicissitudes. During the Anti Japanese War, the Japanese army used mortars to bombard, leaving three bullet marks, and each floor of the bluestone slab was smashed. Feiying tower is also a witness of Japan's invasion of China and the killing of more than 100 villagers of Zhou family in Ho Lake by Japanese army.

In 1982, the central government allocated 15000 yuan to repair the Feiying tower. The top of the tower was rebuilt with cast iron. A protective brick wall was built around the tower, and the tower was initially restored. In 1986, Jiangxi Province, city, county and township raised 50000 yuan through various channels to completely repair and eliminate the traces of damage that had been shelled by the Japanese invading army.

On March 19, 2008, the body of feinta was obviously inclined, similar to the world-famous leaning tower of Pisa. The inclined body of feinta became a local landscape.

Construction funds

Feiying tower is a place where clans gather, and its construction funds naturally come from clans. There is evidence: Yudu County Feiying tower, the site of the ancestral temple Xun, is the unity of civilization, the order said: Feiying When he asked Fei where he came from, his father, Xie Wenkui, and others said, "if we have lived in this land since the beginning of our life, and if we depend on the spirit of heaven, we have been able to use the surnames of all the clansmen for thousands of generations since now, and if they have become the great masters of our country, then we should use their clansmen to help us.". My hometown is called Yingqian, Liri: at the head of the village. The surnames of Chen and CAI are bujusidi. It has been hundreds of years since the end of the Song Dynasty, from the yuan and Ming Dynasties to the Qing Dynasty. A few days ago, Hou long of Qijian city came to visit the scenic spot on official business. He sighed that Dongfang Wenfeng was in a low depression. The two surnames built pagodas, followed by youpan. The construction of Feiying tower was closely related to the prosperity of local clans, which revealed the reason why local gentlemen were keen on reforming imperial examinations.

The foundation of Feiying Pagoda in Yudu city was obtained by the magistrate with "Yi Zhi, the obscene ancestral temple.". What's more, in Yudu, the Chongguang pagoda, originally a Buddhist pagoda, was transformed into Wenfeng Pagoda in this activity. Li Lai, another famous scholar in southern Jiangxi Province in the late Ming Dynasty, wrote about his experience, saying: Although the pagoda is due to the Shi family, it should be ruled by the city, and it should be the mainstay against the river, and it should be good Year old Renchen, the Marquis of the Yellow Emperor, came to kill the city But tell the sun: the tower will collapse, and the atmosphere will be strong! There is a dragon boat club in the city to worship ghosts, but extravagant and crazy! I can also sit and watch my husband store up the ghost's capital to benefit crazy? Which one is the best to repair the tower The culture of the city is prosperous, the material resources are abundant, and the population is numerous! Yudu county magistrate repaired Chongguang Pagoda with the cost of Dragon Boat Club, and endowed the pagoda with the function of Wenfeng pagoda, which is the manifestation of the expansion of the influence of the orthodox Confucian concept.

Related history

On April 28, 1939, the Japanese army fought against the Chinese army who counterattacked Nanchang near Feiying tower in Nanchang County. The battle was so dark that many Japanese soldiers were killed by the Chinese army. The Japanese captain ordered the engineers to release poison fog, and more than 100 Japanese soldiers were charged with gas masks. Chinese officers and soldiers suffered heavy casualties and were forced to withdraw from their positions. The Japanese army occupied the position at the cost of more than 60 casualties and captured more than 30 Chinese soldiers. The leader of the Japanese army commanded the soldiers to strip off all the prisoners' clothes and tie them to the trees, poles and doors with hands and feet. He also ordered the soldiers to execute the prisoners in order to boost their morale. The Japanese soldiers stabbed the prisoners with awls, nails and bayonets. First, they blinded the prisoners with awls, and then stabbed them in the throat with bayonets. The prisoners' throats were punctured, and the blood gushed like a spring. In some cases, there were cracks in their throats and bubbles of soap like blood. The Japanese killed more than 30 Chinese soldiers. When the corpse collectors saw the corpses on the slaughterhouse, some had their ears cut off; some had their noses cut off; some had their mouths cut open; some had knives inserted under their eyes, and their white eyes hung down like fish eyes. The despicable behavior of Japanese army maltreating prisoners is inhuman, which seriously violates the principles of the Geneva Convention on the treatment of prisoners of war. The atrocious circumstances of the crime of maltreating prisoners are obvious.
