Historically, in order to oppose feudal exploitation and oppression, Cangzhou folk martial arts became more and more popular. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Cangzhou Wushu was revived and developed.

Cangzhou Wushu has always been called "open type".

History

According to historical records, Cangzhou folk Wushu flourished in the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty. By Qianlong, the town of Wushu had formed, and by the end of the Qing Dynasty, it was well known overseas.

From the ancient Yan State to the Ming and Qing Dynasties, many dynasties were built in Youyan, Cangzhou was an important place in Jifu, which was a battle for military strategists of all dynasties. According to historical records, since the 22nd year of Emperor Huan of Qi Dynasty (664 years ago) when Emperor Huan of Qi assisted Emperor Yanshanrong, many wars have taken place in Cangzhou in all dynasties. Frequent battles, the people suffered from charcoal, people's livelihood is difficult, so we must master the skills of offensive and defensive fighting in order to save ourselves. Cangzhou, known as the "far evil County state" in ancient times and the "Xiaoliangshan" in Ming Dynasty, can be seen that the prosperity of Wushu in Cangzhou and the development of Wushu are closely related to the specific geographical environment.

Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal runs through the vicissitudes, and Beijing-Jilin and Beijing Main Road run through the north and south. Cangzhou, Botou, Binzhou, Hejian and Xianxian are all the key areas of flood and drought transportation between the north and the south. They are the necessary places for commodity circulation or commodity distribution centers in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong and Henan. They are also the main roads for the great wealth of the government. Therefore, the industries of darts, hotels and loading and transporting flourish in Cangzhou. In order to gain a foothold in the struggle of all trades and professions, we must grasp the high-strength martial arts. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, "Bodyguards don't call Cangzhou" had become a common practice for both north and South bodyguards.

The imperial examination system established in the Sui Dynasty has been perfected since the Tang Dynasty and lasted for many generations. By the middle of Ming Dynasty, the system of Jianwu Township Test and Wuhui Test was abolished in the twenty-seventh year of Guangxu in Qing Dynasty (1901). Wushu in Ming and Qing Dynasties also promoted the development of Cangzhou Wushu. At this time, there were more than 1800 people in Wuju and Jinshi. During the seven years of the Republic of China (1918), Cao Rong, the governor of Zhili, recruited dozens of warriors to teach or serve in his Wushu battalion in order to expand his influence. This action will promote the development of Cangzhou Wushu. In the seventeenth year of the Republic of China (1928), General Zhang Zhijiang of the Cantonese National Army served as the curator of the Central Academy of Chinese Arts. He strongly advocated strengthening the body to resist the sea and save the nation by strengthening the species. Nearly a hundred people were admitted to the library to teach or further study in Cangzhou. At the same time, provincial and county Jianguo Museum or popular education hall advocate martial arts, and "put-style house" throughout the vicissitudes of urban and rural areas, with a large number of people practicing martial arts.

Cangzhou Wulin people always pay attention to internal and external exchanges. Lai Cang artists, warm hospitality. Many people travel around the motherland, or set up bodyguard bureaus, or serve as bodyguard teachers, or folk believers, or join the army to teach art, or seek teachers to release friends to learn skills, or participate in the Wutai Wushu. Huodiangge was employed as a martial artist by Emperor Aixinjueluo Puyi of the late Qing Dynasty; Wang Zhengyi helped Tan Sitong to transform the law into a powerful force to shock the capital; Prince Ping repeatedly won the victory of foreign strongmen on the Rotary Platform; Ma Fengtu and Ma Yingtu passed on art in five provinces and regions of Northwest China; Tongcun, Tongzhongyi, Zhang Zhankui, Sun Wenbo, Yang Jishan, Liu Zhenshan, Zhang Diankui, Wu Xiufeng, Lu Zhenduo, Jia Yaoting and so on. More than ten provinces and municipalities. At the same time, it can absorb the essence of martial arts everywhere and enrich Cangzhou's martial arts. As a result, Cangzhou Wulin class and independent boxing skills become more and more abundant, many boxing routines, after refining, improving and innovating, have unique Cangzhou characteristics.

However, Cangzhou Wushu skills are mainly handed down orally and heartfelt.

Reasons for prosperity

Cangzhou is a place where soldiers and businessmen are bound to compete in history. From ancient times to the present, there have been frequent wars in Cangzhou, and the people have been covered with charcoal. It is impossible to survive without advocating military force. This place is not only a place for the distribution of prisoners, but also a good shelter for rebels. Some traitors who were seized by the court searched for the strong and martial customs of Cangzhou people to cover up their bodies, hide their names and pass on art to survive.

Cangzhou is located at the bottom of the Jiuhe River. Its land is barren. Drought, waterlogging and insect disasters often drop to prison. In a normal year, many families produce half a year's grain of bran vegetable. In the year of severe disaster, there are many vagrants and beggars who sell their children and beautiful women. Folk ballad cloud: "abandon Huangkou son, a breast of gratitude; but hate life, do not complain parents endure." Many strong men survive by selling salt, and the government finds them severely. If the people can not survive, they must resist, and if they resist, they must practise martial arts. Qianlong's Cangzhou Chronicle contains: "Cangyi is vulgar, vigorous and vigorous, light on life and death, and has been known for its integrity since ancient times. In Chengping's time, the family gave people feet, high-spirited and magnificent. Once something happens, we should try our best to defend the countryside, even if we abandon the top but do not show mercy, "which shows that the people of Cangzhou have been upholding righteousness and serving as chivalrous swordsmen since ancient times.

Cangzhou is a multi-ethnic area. Due to historical reasons, the Han and Manchu, Mongolian, Hui and other minority nationalities have had diaphragms and misunderstandings, but unhappy things, gradually harmonious. The displeasure between nationalities promotes the development of Wushu, and the harmony between nationalities and the exchange of skills promote the development of Wushu.
