Historical evolution

Jurong county was established in the first year of Yuanshuo (128 BC) in the Western Han Dynasty, with a history of more than 2000 years.

Jurong, Yugong is the territory of Yangzhou; the spring and Autumn period belongs to Wu; the Warring States period belongs to Yue, Chu and Yue belong to Chu; Qin belongs to Zhangjun.

In the Qin Dynasty, Jiangcheng County (abolished in the Three Kingdoms, restored in the Jin Dynasty, and abolished in the early Sui Dynasty) was set up in the northern part of Jurong.

In the Western Han Dynasty, Jurong county was set up and attached to Danyang county. In the sixth year of Yuanguang (129 BC) of the Western Han Dynasty, the prince Party of Changsha was granted the title of Jurong Marquis; in the first year of Yuanshuo (128 BC) of the Western Han Dynasty, the party died and became the county again. Up to the northern and Southern Dynasties, they belonged to Danyang county.

In the third year of Daxing (320), Jurong Langya Township and Jiangcheng Jinling Township were established as Huaide county to resettle Langya people. In the first year of Xiankang in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (335), the overseas Chinese set up Shitu and Huanwen as the Taishou of Langya County, where they ruled Jincheng (now in the west of Baohua township); in the Southern Dynasty, the Song Dynasty changed to nanlangya County, and in the Southern Dynasty, the Qi Dynasty moved to Baixia, which was abandoned by Chen. In Sui Dynasty, prefectures were set up and counties were led by prefectures. Jurong belonged to Yangzhou (now Nanjing).

In the third year of Wude (620) of Tang Dynasty, Maozhou was established in Jurong and Yanling counties. In the seventh year of Wude in Tang Dynasty, Maozhou was abolished and Jurong belonged to Jiangzhou (now Nanjing). Jurong was briefly assigned to Runzhou in the ninth year of Wude (626). In 742, Jurong belonged to Danyang county. In the first year of Qianyuan (758), Jurong was assigned to Shengzhou (now Nanjing). In the second year of the Shang Yuan Dynasty (761), Jurong was abolished and transferred to Runzhou. In 887, Jurong returned to Shengzhou.

During the Five Dynasties, Shengzhou was renamed Jinling Prefecture and Jiangning Prefecture successively, of which Jurong belonged.

In the early Song Dynasty, it was restored to Shengzhou, and in the second year of Tianxi (1018) of the Northern Song Dynasty, it was restored to Jiangning Prefecture. In the fourth year of Tianxi in the Northern Song Dynasty, Jurong county was changed to Changning County and Xunfu county to Jurong county. In 1129, Jiangning Prefecture was renamed Jiankang Prefecture, and Jurong still belonged to it.

During the Yuan Dynasty, the province was built and the road was set up. Jiankang Fu was changed to Jiankang Road, and later it was renamed Jiqing road. Jurong still belonged to it.

In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang changed the capital of Jiqing road to yingtianfu, and Jurong still belonged to it.

In the Qing Dynasty, Tianfu was changed to Jiangning Fu, and Jurong still belonged to it.

During the period of Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Jiangning was renamed Tianjing, and Jurong was directly under Tianjing.

In the first year of the Republic of China (1912), Jiangning Prefecture was renamed Nanjing Prefecture, and Jurong still belonged to it.

In the third year of the Republic of China (1914), Jurong still belonged to the government of Nanjing, where the government of Nanjing was renamed Jinling Road.

In 1927, Tao was abolished and Jurong was directly under the Jiangsu provincial government.

In 1935, Jiangsu Province was divided into 10 administrative supervision districts, of which Jurong was the tenth.

During the Anti Japanese War, Jurong was the first administrative supervision area of Jiangnan administrative office.

In 1938, the New Fourth Army entered the Maoshan area and established the southern Jiangsu Anti Japanese base area with Maoshan as the center. It successively established the "anti enemy general association" and the "Anti Japanese democratic government". The base area and the Anti Japanese democratic government belonged to the office of the Commissioner of the fifth administrative region of Southern Jiangsu (later it established Zhenju, Jiangju and other county governments with neighboring counties).

In 1943, it was the southern Jiangsu administrative office. The enemy occupied areas were ruled by the Japanese puppets.

In 1945, after the victory of the Anti Japanese War, Jurong was assigned to the first administrative supervision area of Jiangsu Province.

In 1949, Jurong was liberated on April 23. On April 26, Jurong County People's government was formally established, which is the Zhenjiang Office of the southern Jiangsu administrative office. On December 2 of the same year, the East China Bureau of the CPC Central Committee decided to put Jurong under the jurisdiction of Nanjing.

In January 1950, it was put under the jurisdiction of Zhenjiang Commissioner's office.

In 1953, after the founding of Jiangsu Province, it belonged to Zhenjiang District.

In 1958, Zhenjiang District was changed to Changzhou District, and later to Zhenjiang District, Jurong belongs to it.

In March 1983, after the implementation of city Governing County in Jiangsu Province, Jurong belonged to Zhenjiang city.

In April 1995, Jurong City was established with the approval of the State Council.

1、 It's named after the mountain. Both the annals of Jurong County in Hongzhi of Ming Dynasty and the explanation of the name of Jinxian County in the Republic of China indicate that there is gouqushan (Maoshan) in the county. The shape of the mountain seems to be "already", so it is called gourong, which is also called gouqu. In ancient times, the two characters are interlinked. Therefore, it is gradually written into Jurong.

2、 It is named after mountain and water. The Qing Dynasty Qianlong's Jurong county annals reprinted the Ming Wanli (Jurong county annals) saying: "there is a Qushan in Jurong, and the shape of the mountain is like the word" Ji ". The county is surrounded by mountains and waters, just like a city. " According to the records of Maoshan in the Qing Dynasty, to the east of the river, to the left and to the right of Jinling, there is a small chaze (now the Management Committee of Chishan Lake). In the Zhou Dynasty, it was named yuanze, the cave of Qushui. Zedong is a Qushan, which is shaped like the word "Ji", so it is famous for its Qushan. The mountain has its source of music and content, so its environment is Jurong Li. View "Chishan Lake annals": the county is surrounded by mountains in the north, East and south, in the shape of "spoon", and the water from the spoon flows into Chishan lake. The lake is "mouth", and the four banks have capacity, so it is called Jurong. It is also said that it is named after the Qinhuai River. The south side of Baohua in Shandong Province is one of the birthplaces of Qinhuai River. The mountains and waters flow from the northeast of the county to the southwest through the south of the city, into Chishan lake and into Qinhuai River, bending into a "spoon" shape. The county is "mouth" in the "spoon", which is the word "sentence"; the county has Highlands, which was called "Rongshan" in ancient times, so the county is called "Jurong".

3、 It's named by voice. In recent years, researchers majoring in linguistics at Nanjing University believe that Jurong was the place where ancient Yue people lived in the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period. They spoke a language completely different from Chinese. "Ju" and "Gou" are interlinked, which means "Ge" and "Ke" in ancient Yue language. "Rong" was pronounced "dingdongche" in ancient times, which is the same as the transliteration of "Dong" in Zhuang and Dong languages. Dong means forest, and Zhuang Dong language is closely related to ancient Yue language. Therefore, the two words together become the meaning of "one forest". In fact, there are many trees in ancient Jurong, which is obviously different from the surrounding counties. Therefore, it is reasonable to name Jurong.
