Ningbao Township, Chicheng County, Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province

Zhenningbao Township

Zhenningbao township is located in the northwest of Chicheng County. In 1995, it was formed by the merger of dongzhezi Township and zhenningbao township. Zhenningbao village, where the township government is located, is 18 kilometers away from the county seat, adjacent to Chicheng town in the south, Yunzhou Township and Maying Township in the East, and the junction of great wall and Chongli County in the northwest. It governs 26 administrative villages with a total area of 329.83 square kilometers and a permanent resident population of 7003 (2017). The labor force is 7272. The terrain of the whole township is high in the north and low in the south, belonging to continental monsoon climate, with an average annual precipitation of 438.5cm. It is a semi-arid area, with drought and little rain throughout the year and uneven distribution. There are 49951 mu of cultivated land, 15000 mu of converted farmland to woodland, 132000 mu of woodland and 128000 mu of grassland. The main crops are millet, corn, naked oats, yam, trees are poplar, willow, birch, local specialty medicine (Scutellaria, bupleurum), apricot.

Zhenningbao

After leaving diao'e, go west along the road built close to the side in the north, and turn north after reaching Sanchakou (Sanchakou also had a small castle built in Ming Dynasty, but due to lack of prior knowledge, did not stop to visit the village.) Go through dalingbao, drill jianziling tunnel, and turn left at oumacheng (533km) to Wenquan village. It was also a fortress in the Ming Dynasty. A pier stood by the side of the road. There was a grand Ruiyun temple built here at that time. Unfortunately, only the stele survived after the temple was destroyed. The contents of this stone tablet will be explained later. After lunch in the hot spring, we continued to go north. Next to the almost dry Tangquan reservoir, we turned left to the northwest and bumped over a section of road under repair, passing toupuzi and erbaozi. On the right side of the road bifurcation ahead is zhenningbao township. On the square of the people's theater at the head of the village, we stopped the car and went into the village along the alley.

castle

"The fortress is surrounded by mountains in the East, plains in the west, South and North, and large-scale construction in the bare head, xiaozhuangke and Yejishan. There are two key points in the northeast of the fort. In the west of the fort, houjiachong can set up an ambush. " (general annals of Jifu) from the field view, Zhenning fort is located in an open canyon. Except for the mountains in the East, the other three sides are very broad. "This fort should come from the west to invade, and cover Chicheng." (the picture of XuanZhen)

Ancient relics

In Zhenning fort, the most common ones are horse posts and mangers. Tall horse posts and mangers are distributed in every corner of the village. These carefully carved or slightly ornamented pegs and mangers indicate that there were a large number of horses here. Zhenning Fort only had garrison in Ming Dynasty, but it was changed to Ba Zong in the first year of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty. It has never been the location of the government. It is impossible to build a large number of official offices in the fort. The existence of so many horse pegs and mangers can only show that this fort may have been the domestication place of horses in Ming and Qing Dynasties, and it was a place for raising horses in this defense area. we also found a huge and thick rectangular stone slab on the "cross" street in the middle of the castle. The stone slab is lying on the cement platform by the side of the road. Carved patterns are found on the sides of the stone slab. The villagers told us that the stone slab was the crossbeam on the original ticket door, and said that there were words on the side of the stone slab facing the ground. However, we are very puzzled. If the stone slab is used as a cross beam on the ticket door, how can it be engraved on its surface with words? We have repeatedly asked whether this stone slab is a standing stone tablet, but most of the villagers must say that it is a stone slab across the top of the ticket gate, which is really beyond understanding. in the castle, there are still many old houses, most of which have brick walls. Unfortunately, these old houses are in disrepair, and most of them are abandoned by their owners or submerged in modern red brick houses. at the road fork on the east side of zhenningbao, we also found a circle of earth walls. These rammed earth wall foundations indicate that there were buildings here, and the scale of the buildings is still quite large. I don't know if there are fortifications here.

Animal husbandry is developing towards economic and ecological type. There are 1360 cashmere goats and 1200 big tail Han sheep in the township. Yingwogou is the base of raising sheep in the village, including 86 cashmere goats, 160 big tail Han sheep and 120 Cotton sheep.

The infrastructure has been greatly improved. Program controlled telephones have been opened in 13 administrative villages, and mobile and Unicom have been opened. More than 95% of the TV households have entered the market. The highway from Chicheng to Chongli is a provincial highway, and 29 village highways have been opened and renovated. The system evolution of Chicheng is located in Wangyun county (now Yunzhou) in Liao Dynasty, and Yunzhou (now Yunzhou) in Yuansheng county. Chicheng County was first established in 1694. In September 1958, Longguan county (named Longmen in the Tang Dynasty) was merged into one, still known as Chicheng. County government began in Longguan, and then moved to Chicheng. Therefore, the historical evolution of Chicheng should include the part of Longguan. Longguan is close to Xuanhua (ancient Shanggu county) and Zhuolu (ancient Xialuo County, Guangning County, Xinzhou and Fengsheng county). The process of human civilization is fast and the development is very early. Longguan area was the land of Jinyun clan in ancient times, which was the territory of Jinyun clan of Huangdi tribe. As early as the Han Dynasty, it had been established as nuqi county (the county should be located in diao'e town). In the Tang Dynasty, Longmen County (today's Longguan town) was established. In the Ming Dynasty, Longguan and Chicheng were both strategic places. Longmen guards were set up to command Zhongbei road and extend eastward. Longmen Shouyu qianhusuo (Longmen Suo for short) was set up in Dongzhuang (now Longmen Suo town). As recorded in Longguan county annals: "Longguan county"
