brief introduction

Located in the playground in front of Lu Xun Memorial Hall of Xiamen University, Zhengchenggong martial arts arena site is a municipal cultural relic protection unit. After liberation, a 120cm long and 48CM wide stone carving of "Lian Dan" was found in the octagonal pavilion garden behind Tong'an building of Xiamen University. It is now in the Zheng Chenggong Memorial Hall on Gulangyu Island. Mr. Tan Kah Kee chose the site of Yanwu pavilion to set up Xiamen University, which means to uphold the legacy of our ancestors and love our country. In those days, there were two walls on the hills on both sides of the northeast and southwest of the martial arts arena. Inside the walls was a campus with a total area of more than 50000 square meters. Next to the campus, there is a military performance Pavilion in the Qunxian building of Xiamen University. Before Zheng Chenggong's Northern Expedition, he selected generals and trained them every day. He trained an "Iron Man Army" of 10000 people, and later became the main force to recover Taiwan.

Scale of martial arts performance

The martial arts arena is adjacent to Xiamen port in the South and Nanputuo in the north. There are two walls in the northeast and southwest of the arena, which are called zhennanguan and zhenbeiguan respectively. Yanwu Pavilion is in Xiamen University.

According to the actual record of conscription, in March of the 12th year of Yongli (1658), Zheng Chenggong ordered his engineer Feng Chengshi to build a platform Pavilion on the arena as a place for his coaches and soldiers. In 1680, when the Qing army invaded Xiamen, Zheng Jing ordered it burned before retreating to Taiwan. In 1954, a stone carving named "Lian Dan" was unearthed in front of Qunxian building of Xiamen University. The stone carving is 0.48 meters high and 1.02 meters wide, with regular script. According to the research, it is the stone component of Yanwu Pavilion. The word "training courage" should be one of the gists of Zheng Chenggong's training of soldiers.

According to Ruan Minxi's record of seeing and hearing on the sea, Zheng Chenggong was reading and practicing his famous iron man army with five plum blossom exercises at that time. "The training is based on a stone lion weighing 500 Jin. Those who can stand up can pull into the left and right military guards and their relatives. They are equipped with Yunnan bows and arrows. They wear iron helmets, iron arms and iron skirts. They are locked with locks and can't be taken off. They are called iron men at that time." The iron man army was brave and good at fighting. It was the main force in the northern expedition to resist the Qing Dynasty and recover Taiwan. Yanwuting site was announced as a municipal cultural relic protection unit in 1961.

According to historical records, Zheng Chenggong ordered Feng Chengshi, an engineer, to build a military training Pavilion in the playground between the east of Xiamen Port yard and aoziling in the ninth year of Yongli (1655). After the pavilion was built, Zheng Chenggong personally supervised the training and taught.

Historical evolution

Yanwuting site is located in the area of Xiamen University Stadium.

The martial arts arena where Yanwu Pavilion is located is the place where Yu Dayou, a famous Anti Japanese general in Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty, and Zheng Chenggong, a national hero in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty, practiced martial arts. In 1655, Zheng Chenggong built a platform Pavilion for his military parade. In 1680, the Qing army invaded Xiamen. Zheng Jun, the son of Zheng Chenggong, ordered to burn the Yanwu Pavilion before withdrawing from Taiwan. The building no longer exists. The site was announced as a municipal cultural relic protection unit in 1961.

Yanwu Bridge

Yanwu bridge is located in the section of Haijun wharf Yanwu road Baicheng of Huandao Road in Xiamen. It was opened to traffic in September 2003. Yanwu bridge is built in the ancient Yanwu pool and Yanwu field ruins, facing the statue of Zheng Chenggong across the sea on the west side. Therefore, the name of Yanwu bridge derived from the local name "Yanwu" related to Zheng Chenggong is approved.

The appearance design of Yanwu bridge is unique, simple and bright. The bridge adopts the design scheme of low bridge position, which is close to the sea and meets the functions of transportation, tourism and leisure. The bridge is the lowest bridge in the world from the sea level at present. In the structure, the fish belly beam and elliptical pier are adopted to realize the organic combination of landscape and traffic. Looking at the sea on this bridge, there is a bright moon rising from the sea, water and sky are the same color, water goes with the sky, the bridge is no longer a cold building, but the basis of looking at the sea. Yanwu bridge is close to the sea, extending slowly and undulating like waves. From afar, it looks like a egret flying; from a little closer, it sees a white dragon flying in the air; from a little closer, it turns into a beluga leaping out of the water The simple and smooth lines and exquisite and flexible modeling surprised me that the bridge can be built in this way and give people such a strong visual beauty.

Zheng Chenggong returned home with Uncle Zhiyan and lived in Zheng's house in Anping, Jinjiang. Zheng Zhilong employed famous teachers to teach. In 1638, Zheng Chenggong went to Nan'an county to study as a student. In 1644, Zheng Chenggong came to Nanjing from his hometown to study as an eunuch of the Imperial Academy of China. He worshipped Qian Qianyi as a teacher. In the middle of March of that year, Li Zicheng led the peasant uprising army to invade Beijing, and Chongzhen Dynasty perished. In mid September, the Qing Dynasty established its capital in Beijing. After defeating Li Zicheng's peasant army, he conquered Nanjing in June of the next year, the Hongguang regime of Nanming was destroyed, and Zheng Chenggong returned to Fujian. In the same month, Zhu Yujian, the king of the Tang Dynasty, was crowned emperor by Zheng Zhilong and others in Fuzhou. The emperor highly praised Zheng Chenggong for his loyalty and bravery. He gave him the same surname as the state and changed his name to "Chenggong". From then on, he was officially called "Zhu Chenggong" in the Southern Ming Dynasty and also known as "Guo Xingye" at home and abroad. In August 1646, when the Qing army attacked Fujian, Emperor Longwu was captured on the way to escape and died in Tingzhou.

In the name of "recruiting generals", he vowed to fight against the Qing Dynasty in Anping and Wuzhou (Jinmen) and supported the Yongli regime of Nanming. In August 1647, Zheng Chenggong and his uncle Zheng Hongkui led troops to attack Quanzhou and stationed troops in Taohua mountain.

May 1659

Zheng Chenggong began the largest northern expedition in his life. Zheng Chenggong led his army to the north of Zhoushan and back to Jiangxi from the mouth of the Yangtze River. On the seventh day of July, Zheng Chenggong led his army to Nanjing, which was shocked by the Qing government. When victory was in sight, Zheng Chenggong delayed the opportunity of attack. He was defeated by the subsequent reinforcements of the Qing Dynasty. He was withdrawn along the Yangtze River to the East, turned the sea route to the south, and returned to Jin and Xia bases in September. After the failure of Zheng Chenggong's Northern Expedition, the Qing Dynasty had controlled most of China. In view of the great disparity between the enemy and ourselves and the changes in the objective situation of the whole country, only relying on the fact that Jin and Xia islands will be in imminent danger, Zheng Chenggong decided to March eastward to Taiwan and take advantage of the natural danger of the Strait and the strength of the sea to establish a new anti Qing base.

April 21, 1661

Zheng Chenggong led 25000 soldiers to March eastward from liaoluo Bay in Jinmen by more than 350 warships. He stayed in Penghu for several days due to a storm. At dawn on the 30th, he made a successful landing from lu'ermen, Tainan. He defeated the Dutch sniper and took advantage of the situation to attack Chiqian city. Later, Zheng Chenggong led the army to encircle the Dutch ruling center in Taiwan, the city of reranzha. Premier Yi, the Dutch governor in Taiwan, refused to surrender. Relying on the strong city walls, he resisted tenaciously. However, Zheng Chenggong failed to make several strong attacks, but instead he was besieged for a long time. In mid July, Dutch reinforcements supported Taiwan from badavia and were defeated by Zheng Chenggong in a decisive battle at sea. After nine months of siege, on February 1, 1662, Premier Yi finally surrendered to Zheng Chenggong and withdrew from Taiwan with his disabled soldiers defeated.
