Human history

The ancient town of Lefeng was not called Lefeng town in history. It was named "Lefeng" when it was built in 1954. So, what is the name of the ancient town in history? In the history of Lefeng area, there is a legend of "Yulong ancient town". Although there is no exact literature to study, it is named after the mountain, which is called Yulong mountain. Lefeng is located in the lakeside plain, with high terrain in the southeast and low terrain in the northwest. The highest point is Yulong Mountain in the south, with an altitude of 35 meters. The lowest point is leeward Lake in the northwest, with an altitude of 14 meters. Before the construction of the polder, there was the vast water of Poyang Lake, which was located in the hilly area of the south of the Yangtze River. A slightly undulating mountain suddenly stopped at the Bank of Poyang Lake, like a huge fish dragon drinking the water of the lake, so it got its name. According to legend, a kind of fine grain sagger is called "fish dragon sagger". The fine grain painting is the fish dragon shape in the Poyang Lake. This is the premise that the ancient Lefeng people pursued the practicality of pottery, and the producers injected their pursuit and yearning for beauty into the super shape and decoration, making it have the characteristics of appreciation. It can be seen that there were "Yulong" and "Yulongshan" a thousand years ago, and they have been circulating all the time. One restaurant in Lefeng was named "Yulongshan Hotel", which was named after "Yulongshan". Obviously, Lefeng town is historically known as Yulong ancient town because it is located in Yulong mountain.

There is a street in Yulong town called Rutang street. How did the name of Rutang Street come from? It is said that in the Northern Song Dynasty, Yulong mountain was also called "South Mountain". There is a Fu Xue she, which was later named "Zeng Zi Shu Yuan". Because Zeng Gong, a great scholar of the Song Dynasty, once talked about learning here, Zeng Gong gave the south mountain the name of Ru Tang mountain at the sincere request of the students. According to the records of Poyang County annals by Tongzhi of Qing Dynasty, Baojiashan was originally called "Rutang mountain". Rutang mountain is the southeast post station of Poyang. The harbor where the passing ships and wooden plates were moored, and the haven for the military strategists of the past dynasties, this densely populated place became the Rue Hall Street.

Of course, Yulong ancient town has a process of development. At first, the scale of the ancient town was not large, and the streets were not wide. It is said that the widening and reconstruction of Rutang Street benefited from the Huai king of Ming Dynasty. In history, when Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang fought against Poyang Lake, Zhu Yuanzhang was defeated once. Rutang mountain was stationed in Mingshan temple to recuperate and raise food and grass, so that Zhu Yuanzhang finally defeated Chen Youliang. Huaiwang felt that Rutang street had contributed to the Daming Dynasty, so when he took part in the Wannian county establishment celebration and led the horse team to pass through Rutang street, he solemnly promised to take money to widen it. After that, he really sent several stacks of new "Daming banknotes". Since then, the official road from Rutang street to Lianjia has been completely leveled and widened. This shows that the ancient town of Lefeng was born more than 1000 years ago, and its history has been continued. It is really a millennium old town in the south of the Yangtze River. 2

Why did Lefeng become an ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River since the Northern Song Dynasty?

In ancient times, where there were no trains or cars, most of the places where towns could be formed were places with developed waterway transportation. Yulong mountain, also known as Rutang mountain before liberation, is the top of Baojia mountain. At the foot of the mountain is the vast Poyang Lake. It is surrounded by water on three sides. The Xin River, Chang River and Le'an River meet not far from here and flow into Poyang Lake. Waterway traffic extends in all directions, can accommodate four ships, the geographical location is superior. In the era of water transportation dominating traffic, this has created its Millennium prosperity.

A place with developed transportation, such as Gubu port, is a place with developed commodity trading. In ancient times, the so-called "city" of a city was the place where goods were traded. In places with well-developed transportation, there will be more people buying and selling, more houses and shops, which will make the city more lively. If the city is surrounded by walls, it will become a city. The scale of a market town is smaller than that of a city. The so-called "market" means centralized trading, and going to the market means rushing to buy and sell. For Yulong mountain, which is located at the intersection of multiple water systems in an age when water dominates transportation, it is really a place where merchants gather and goods flow freely. It can really be said that "business is booming all over the world, and financial resources are flourishing.

According to historical records, there were a large number of fairs around cities and rural traffic arteries in Song Dynasty, and gradually formed towns of different sizes. It should be said that Yulongshan ancient town was formed under the historical conditions of commodity production and exchange in the Northern Song Dynasty. It is said that in the Northern Song Dynasty, handicraft production in Yulongshan area was very developed. According to historical records, our ancestors began to use polished stone tools, and in the practice of long-term use of fire, invented clay containers made of clay clay, which can hold liquid and fire-resistant pottery after fire roasting. In the Northern Song Dynasty, the firing technology of pottery in Yulong ancient town was very advanced. It is said that there were 18 kilns in Baojiashan at that time. Relying on the rich high-quality heavy clay, the business was very prosperous. These pots and tiles are mainly sold in Poyang, Yugan and Leping counties. Among them, many shapes of covered and uncovered fine grain fish dragon saggers are sold more widely. They are used for fire, soup and tea. Traders often ship them to Raozhou, Leping, Anren and the coastal areas of Poyang Lake for sale. At that time, the kiln industry went hand in hand with the acquisition and processing of Cortex Phellodendri and Allium fistulosum under the brand name. Its address was Lefeng primary school, the place where iron was used to cast plows in the head of Lefeng reservoir, and the horticultural farm was the place where grain and oil were squeezed and pigs were traded.

With the development of water transportation, handicraft industry and trade, more and more people are attracted to join in. Gradually, a market town with dense households is formed here. In the history of our country, it has become a common practice to set up shops on the street in the Northern Song Dynasty. Shops can be set up in all areas of the city. There are shops on both sides of the street and along the river. Because there are shops everywhere in Yulong ancient town, a prosperous Commercial Street has been formed, which is Rutang street. The streets are bustling with people. According to the genealogy of Li family in Tang Tou of Lefeng, Hu Xiru, a descendant of Professor Hu, a great master of Song Dynasty, once wrote a poem in praise of Rutang street in Yulong ancient town, saying: "the scale building competes with the garden house, worships the door, the Doushi Pavilion and the wind". That is to say, the rows of brick and tile houses are as beautiful as fish scales. On the top floor of the tall houses, the wind seems to rise from them. It can be seen that the prosperity and prosperity of Ruchang street in those years.

Unfortunately, this millennium old town in the southern mountains was burned to ruins by a fire during the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. According to local people, a large number of "huangmaozi" with yellow scarves on their arms from the upper reaches of the Le'an River at that time. They made a lot of money and attacked the well-off village with a small surname, he said
