Halaha River

Halaha River

Halaha river is also known as halexin river. Halaha means "barrier" in Mongolian. Because the West Bank is higher than the east bank, the west bank looks like a long barrier from the east bank. Halaha River gets its name from this landform. Halaha is also the name source of Mongolian kalka tribe. Part of halaha river is the boundary river between China and Mongolia.

In 1939, the battle of halaha River (the battle of nomenhan), which caused the Japanese army heavy losses and gave up the "northward March", started on the riverside, making the halaha River famous. The ruling groups of the United Kingdom and the United States hoped to appease Japan by sacrificing the interests of the Soviet Union and Mongolia. But this hope was dashed by the failure of the Japanese army. This failure had a great influence on the diplomatic position of the Japanese government and was one of the reasons why Japan could stop its anti Soviet war in the Second World War.

Introduction to rivers

"Halaha" means "barrier" in Mongolian, also known as "halexin River". Halaha river is called siphe River in Old Tang book, hele River in Jin history, and hefuhe River in secret history of Mongolia (also known as secret history of Yuan Dynasty).

Halaha river is the upper source of Wuerxun River and belongs to Erguna river system. Part of its reach is the boundary river between China and Mongolia. It originates from the southeast mountain of Wudaogou in the north of the western mountains of Daxing'an Mountains, with an altitude of 1500 meters. The main stream flows from southeast to northwest, with a total length of 399 kilometers. In China, the drainage area is 7520 square kilometers, with a width of 80 meters, an average depth of 2 meters, and a flow rate of 1-2 meters per second,

The annual average runoff is 432 million cubic meters, and the average runoff is 22.23 cubic meters per second. When it flows to the area near the former West embudukalen, the river is divided into two branches, one of which flows to the northwest through the sharlejin River into the Wuerxun River, and the other flows to the south into the Beier lake.

The main tributaries are Suhu River, Gurban River and other 12 tributaries. More than 10 kilometers upstream of halaha river is an underground river, flowing underground in Shitanglin. You can only hear the gurgling water, but you can't see the water.

Halaha river flows from southeast to northwest, flows into Beier lake, a common lake of China and Mongolia, and then turns back into Hulun Lake, so it is called "patriotic River".

Geographical history

The river is the boundary river between China and Mongolia. It originates from songye Lake (darbin Lake) on the north slope of Motianling in the west of Daxinganling, flows through Dujuan lake, and also collects in Suhu River, Gurban River and other tributaries. The main stream flows into Mongolia from east to west through yiershi town. It belongs to Erguna water system, with a drainage area of 7520 square kilometers in China.

More than 10 kilometers upstream is an underground river, flowing underground in Shitanglin. You can only hear the gurgling water, but you can't see the water.

The river flows from east to west, flows into Bair lake of Mongolia, turns back and flows into Hulun Lake. Therefore, it can become a "patriotic River" for China, but it is a river flowing in the Mongolian Plateau for generations for the Mongolians of the two countries separated by the border line. The halaha river bank is covered with primitive plant communities, and the winding river is hidden between the mountains.

Hanoi is rich in many kinds of rare cold water fish. Among them, the giant zheluo fish, which heads upstream in groups with peach blossom water every year, has long been famous for its tender meat. In the middle and lower reaches of the halaha River, you can also take rafts along the river to fully appreciate the charm of nature.

What made the halaha River famous in history was a war between the Soviet Union and the Outer Mongolia allied forces in the lower reaches of the halaha River (halaha River) and the Japanese invaders in Mongolia during World War II from May to September 1939, which ended in a tragic defeat for peace. The ruling groups of the United Kingdom and the United States hoped to appease Japan by sacrificing the interests of the Soviet Union and Mongolia. But this hope was dashed by the failure of the Japanese army. This failure had a great influence on the diplomatic position of the Japanese government and was one of the reasons why Japan could stop its anti Soviet war in the Second World War.

Ancient legend

Halaha river is known as "Mother River". For many years, a vivid and moving legend has been circulating in the local area.

Once upon a time, on the southeast mountain of Wudaogou in the north of Motianling, the West foot of Daxinganling, lived several hunters. One day, all the men went hunting in the mountains, and the women gathered firewood or herbs around the village. There was a boy named darbin who hurt his foot on horseback and stayed in the wooden house to look after his younger brother who was under one year old. Darbin is concentrating on making a birdcage. Suddenly, a hungry wolf jumps into the wooden room, and the sleeping baby is about to run away. When darbin saw it, he cried out impatiently, "the wolf is coming! Here comes the wolf Then, regardless of everything, he limped at the wolf. The hungry wolf put down his baby and came back to fight with darbin. Darbin's cry and the baby's cry call back the hunter's wife. But when she ran back to the wooden house in panic, she saw the baby lying on the ground crying; darbin was covered with blood, lying motionless on the ground; the wolf was out of breath, and many knife edges were still bleeding, with a waist knife in his stomach Orion's wife holds darbin in her arms and tears up her headscarf to bandage his wound. She cried out his name, but darbin didn't wake up. Hunter's wife suddenly remembered the old man's words: human milk can make good people open their eyes again. So she squeezed her milk into darbin's eyes. Milk ran down darbin's cheek to the grass. The hunter's wife kept on squeezing and squeezing. At first the milk came out, and then the blood came out At last she fainted on the grass, but she still held the boy's head tightly to her chest.

I don't know how long after that, Orion's wife was awakened by the sound of running water. She opened her eyes and found a sparkling river flowing quietly by her side. The hunter told her that darbin could not open her eyes after all, but her sincerity moved heaven and turned her milk into this broad and long river. Darbin was being gently carried away by the river. The river of milk is today's halaha river. For thousands of years, it has been flowing endlessly, seems to be telling people this ancient legend.
