Overview of Jiang Weicheng

Weizhou town is the political, economic, cultural and transportation center of Wenchuan County and the gateway of Aba Prefecture. In ancient times, it belonged to the Department of Ranwei, and Mianchi town was the former site of the county. Jiang Weicheng is in Weizhou town. Since the Han Dynasty, the buildings of Wenjiang, Mianchi, Wenshan and Wenchuan have all been named after Minjiang River in the territory (the ancient "Wen" and "Min" are commonly used), and their governance has changed in successive dynasties. It is now a Qiang Autonomous County in Wenchuan. Weizhou county is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and baoziguan is located between Zagunao River and Minjiang River. It is known as "three mountains are majestic and two rivers compete for flow". The Tibetan and Qiang people in Wenchuan are good at fighting in history. The Qiang blockhouses, especially the original buildings for both residential and military use, are unique. The existence of Jiang Weicheng just shows that it was the place where Shu Han and ethnic minorities fought.

Introduction to Jiang Wei

Jiang Wei (202-264) was a famous general of Shu during the Three Kingdoms period. He once went to Wenchuan to pacify the border chaos. Jiang Weiben was born in Ji county of Tianshui (today's Gangu east of Gansu Province). According to the biography of Xiqiang in the book of the later Han Dynasty, "the origin of Xiqiang is the difference of Jiang's surname." Jiang Wei is a Qiang nationality, one of the few minority "cadres" in the Three Kingdoms period. In his early years, he served as Cao Wei Zhonglang, later he joined Shu Han, served as Cao Cang, and was promoted to be a general of China and the West. In 234, Zhuge Liang attacked the Wei Dynasty and died of illness. Jiang Wei and other secretaries did not mourn, got rid of Sima Yi's pursuit and calmly withdrew to Hanzhong. After Fei's death, he took charge of the military power of Shu Han, and was promoted to a general. In 263, the sixth year of Jingyao, Hanzhong was defeated. Jiang Wei withdrew from Dazhong (now northwest of Zhouqu, Gansu Province). Wei general zhugexu held the bridgehead of Yinping (now northwest of Wenxian, Gansu Province) and cut off his way back. Jiang Wei attacked from the back and forced the Wei army to retreat. He crossed the bridge and joined forces with Shu generals Liao Hua and Zhang Yi to defend Jiange (now northeast of Sichuan Jiange). The Wei army was blocked for 100000 yuan. Because Deng AI, the general of Wei Dynasty, went to Chengdu and Liu Chan came to surrender, Jiang Wei was ordered to surrender. After the demise of Western Shu, he also wanted to use the bell club to revive the Shu Han, and took part in the rebellion of Wei general Zhong club. He was defeated and killed in Chengdu, which shows his firm belief in being loyal to the Shu Han.

Jiang Wei made a lot of efforts in carrying out Zhuge Liang's "He Yi" policy and made some contributions. In 247 A.D., Wenshan (now Maowen, Sichuan) was in turmoil, and Jiang Wei led his troops to pacify it. Later, they sent troops to Longxi, Nan'an and Jincheng to fight the Wei generals Guo Huai and Xia Hou BA in Taoxi. In both cases, he carried out Zhuge Liang's policy of "harmonizing the barbarians" and appeased the ethnic minorities. Perhaps Zhuge Liang paid special attention to Jiang Wei, in addition to his own talent and strategy, mainly because Jiang Wei was a general of ethnic minorities, and his reuse was not only beneficial to the northern expedition, but also reflected the "He Yi" policy.

On the mountain ridge of the East Bank of Minjiang River, where the county is backed, is like the ancient city of Jiangwei, where the long dragon is circling. Along the winding mountain road of Jiangwei city under construction, you can feel the vicissitudes of the world when you come to dianjiangtai.

In Chapter 94 of the romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhuge Liang broke the Qiang soldiers in the snow and Sima Yi captured Mengda in the snow, there is a description of the battle between the Shu army and the Qiang people: "suddenly, the Qiang soldiers were separated on both sides, the central government released the iron Chariot, like a tide, and the bows and crossbows were suddenly launched together. The Shu army was defeated, and the two armies of Madai and Zhangbao retreated first... " Later, the Shu army relied on Guan Gong from heaven to help each other. Later, Kongming's clever plan won the Qiang people. Suppose that the battle took place outside Jiangwei City, and this land was the battlefield of that year.

The ancient city walls are all rammed with soil. Although they have been polished for more than 2000 years, the crenels are still clear and the vicissitudes of life have not changed. The strength, integrity, soul and essence of the ancient city need to be understood with the touch of the soul, melted with the furnace of the spirit and annotated with the sincerity of life. From its mottled and broken light and shadow, I can see the life of Jiang Wei, an ancient sage and a famous general of Shu Han in the Three Kingdoms, and even the beacon fire he lit to resist the army of Zhong Hui, a general of Wei Dynasty

On the platform of Dianjiang, you are in the boundless world, which is very touching. Chen Zi'ang's feeling of "not seeing the ancients before, not seeing the comers after, thinking of the long world, only pathetic and tears down" came to his heart. Jiang Weicheng's historical depth and thickness accumulated over thousands of years are fascinating and awe inspiring.
