General situation of Li Zicheng's tomb

Li Zicheng's tomb is located at the northern foot of Jiugong Mountain. There are many ancient trees around the original tomb, which is a long earth grave. In the north of the tomb, there is a small stone tablet almost lost in the soil, which is engraved with "Li Zicheng's grave". There is a saying in the late Qing Dynasty: "The emperor's grave looks like a snake, and the longer it grows, the darker it becomes." (Note: "Mo Qing" refers to the vegetation around the tomb, which is harmonious and "destroyed". ) 1928, Yue Sen, the commander of the 49th Division of the National Revolutionary Army 14 Army, paid tribute to this and replaced the original stone tablet with the "Li Zicheng Tomb" engraved in regular script, which was six feet high, two feet wide and four inches thick.

1June, 955, the county cultural department asked the provincial cultural bureau to allocate funds to repair the tomb of Li, which was presided over by the county people's government. At that time, the ancient tomb was excavated and inspected. Under the mound, there was a coffin room, only a line of black matter similar to dust remained in the room, and several rusty nails were found. According to Luo, who participated in the cultivation that year, at a folk literature creation conference in 1950s, a farmer surnamed Wang said that Li Zicheng was buried by them.

Peixiu Tomb covers an area of 300 square meters, facing north. Along the edge of the stone foundation, there is an octagonal stone fence with a height of one meter. The tomb is located in the center of the stone foundation, about 1.5 meters high, all of which are block stone structures. At the top of the tomb stands a 2.5-meter-high stone tablet in the shape of a pyramid, engraved with the "Li Zicheng Tomb" inscribed by Guo Moruo, and the epitaph of Guo Moruo is engraved in front of the tomb; Wang, then secretary of the provincial party Committee, wrote an inscription: "Li Zicheng is a great leader of the peasant revolution"; It happened that Li Zhongqiu, the county magistrate at that time, wrote "The Tomb of Li Zicheng"; After that, the original monument was placed, and the pines and cypresses stood upright around the mausoleum, with strange flowers and different grasses. 197 1 year, Hubei generator factory built a factory here, so the tomb was moved to the east by 300 meters as it was. Workers planted trees around the grave for maintenance and repair. 199 1 year, the ancient tomb was destroyed due to heavy rain and landslides.

1996 10, the county party Committee and the county people's government planned to renovate the tomb of Li again, which was completed in April 1997. The tomb was built in Jiugong Garden and expanded according to the original style. The tomb is 9.5 meters high, of which the tombstone is 4.8 meters high. The whole tomb is made of white marble, mongolia black marble and heather marble, and inscribed with the inscription "Rebuilding the Tomb of Li Zicheng" by Xiong Chuanjing, secretary of the county party committee, and Ruan, the county magistrate.

1644, Li Zicheng defeated Shanhaiguan and fled south along the road. /kloc-arrived in Wuchang in 0/645, intending to capture Nanjing and plot to develop and compete with the Qing Dynasty. Because of the hatred of national subjugation, Nan Ming did the same thing as the Southern Song Dynasty, and spent a lot of money to ask Manchu to destroy the Dashun peasant uprising army. In May of this year, Dashun Army sent Wuchang. According to Azig's report, the Qing army and Dashun army fought several wars, namely Chengtian, De 'an, Wuchang, Fuchikou, Sangjiakou and Jiujiangkou. The key battles are Sangjiakou and Jiujiangkou. First of all, introduce the specific geographical location of Sangjiakou, which is the famous ancient battlefield of the Six Dynasties, Muluozhou. Because of the collapse of Sangluozhou the following year, a big gap was formed, and the locals also called Sangjiakou. Jiujiangkou is the intersection of Sangluozhou and Poyang Lake. It can be said that the focus of the decisive battle between the Qing army of Azig and the Dashun army of Li Zicheng is in front of Muluozhou and at the end of Zhou Zhou. There are different opinions about who died in Li Zicheng. Today we will talk about a version in the early Qing Dynasty. Li Zicheng died in Susong and was killed by a farmer in Susong with a hoe. To understand the reason, we have to start with the history of Sanluo and Susong. "Records of Jiujiang Prefecture" records: "In the third year of the Ming Dynasty (1623), the banks of Muluo Prefecture collapsed for more than ten miles, and there were countless rotten houses, which made the people miserable." Muluozhou will collapse into the river next season. Let's review the whole history of the Ming Dynasty's Sangluo Prefecture. The Ming Dynasty flourished because of Sangluo Prefecture and died because of it. The sinking of mulberry leaves was the time of the demise of the Ming Dynasty. At the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, 1363, Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang fought Poyang Lake. Finally, Chen Youliang was shot and killed in Jingjiang Estuary of Sangluozhou (near Bajin, Zhoutou Township). Since then, it has also opened the title page of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang had the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, so he could travel to the north without worries. Five years later, with the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Muluozhou gradually faded out of people's sight. Liu Ji, Yang Jihe (one of the three gifted scholars in Kunshan) all have poems with the theme of falling into a boat. Spring grass grows on the edge of Muluozhou, boating in front of Muluozhou, and I used to Suo Muluozhou. In the 13th year of Yongle in Ming Dynasty (14 15), Jie Jin traveled, inspected and obtained evidence in the ancient battlefield of Muluozhou. Jie Jin is the editor of Yongle Dadian in Ming Dynasty, and has been exposed to relatively complete historical materials. On the one hand, this trip is to remember the war 50 years ago, and on the other hand, it is to study the location of Zhou Yu's tomb. The conclusion is that Zhou Yu's tomb is in Susong, Anqing today. He also wrote a poem "Wan Shui Lin Qing around the tomb field", which confirmed that Zhou Yu's tomb was in Muluozhou. In the first year of Hongxi (1425), Hu, a water transport official of the Ming Dynasty, passed through a large wasteland west of Muluozhou. It is because a large amount of sediment carried by the river was blocked by Muluozhou, and gradually formed a seven-mile-wide sand belt and reed forest. At this time, it was beyond redemption. As a water transport official, Hu knew the preciousness of grain, grass and land, and wrote a poem: "The boat is seven miles short, which makes the country water. The land around the lake can be planted, and the family will come back to the field to come to this township. " The seven-mile drought in the thunder pool is the six townships near Muluozhou today. From this, we also clearly know that today's Longgan Lake is a part of the ancient mine pool. Zhang Guo of Jingkou in the Ming Dynasty once wrote a poem entitled "Like a round wooden boat" on the topic of Tao Yuanming's "Wooden boat falling". It can be seen from here that Muluozhou written by Tao Yuanming is actually the Peach Blossom Garden. In the 20th year of Jiajing in Ming Dynasty (154 1), Zhu Prayer wrote an account of Mazu in Xiaogushan, "My wife lives in Muluozhou". In the fourth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1576), Pan Jixun, the governor of Jiangxi Province, ordered Song Chunren, the governor of Jiujiang Tongzhi, to fix the problem of Luozhou. It is more than seventy miles long. More than 8000 willows have been planted. Pan Jixun was a famous water conservancy engineer in Ming Dynasty. 1580, Song Chunren built Chengjiang Tower to observe the water potential. Muluozhou has become a fertile land. When passing by this place this year, Shi wrote a poem "Looking for the tomb and looking to the west". This is another proof of Gong Jin's tomb. Xu Tengfang was a scholar in the tenth year of the Ming Dynasty (16 10), and he will be a tongzhi in Jiujiang in the next three years (1623). Muluozhou collapsed, and its bank collapsed for more than ten miles. There are countless rotten houses, the migration is uncertain, and the people are miserable. There is no such thing as a reed class. I suggest that those who collapse should be removed, those who lack them should be reduced, and the people should be virtuous. Sangluozhou collapsed into a big hole, which local residents called Sangjiakou. In the first year of Hong Guang (1645), Li Zicheng defeated Shanhaiguan and fled to Jiujiang. Being cornered by Brother Zi, he fought in Sangjiakou. Sangjiakou World War I became the burial place of Li Zicheng. Li Zicheng struggled to escape from the encirclement of the Qing army and fled to Susong. Sangjiakou is located at the junction of Jiujiang and Susong. Hunger and fatigue crushed Wang Chuang. When he begged a farmer in Susong, he said that he was a king, but it was this signboard that killed him. 1637, Zhang played Fengxiang post first, then Tanjiadian, and fought six battles in Susong. Zhang and Shi Kefa fought several wars in Susong. Susong is a scorched earth. 1639, Susong City was overseen by Shi Kefa. Because Zhang is Chu Zhuangwang's army, Susong people have never had much affection for Chu Zhuangwang's army. Susong people were displaced, and Zhu Shu's father Zhu Guangbi went to the buried hill during this period. Zhu Shu was born in the buried hill at this time. This shows how much disaster Zhang has brought to the people of Susong. Zhang Liujin brought great disaster to Susong. Wang Chuang signboard, which was originally thought to be popular everywhere, became a scourge in Susong. Susong people don't like Chu Zhuangwang's army, but they hate it. Farmers in Susong took Li Zicheng by surprise, raised their hoes and killed Li Zicheng with one hoe. A generation of King Chuang was killed in this way, ending the most legendary story in China. Chu Zhuangwang died in Susong. These can be found in the records of Jiujiang Prefecture in Kangxi period. Because the farmers in Susong were afraid of revenge from the invading army, they hid it. After the establishment of the Qing dynasty, this matter gradually spread. After World War I in Sangjiakou, Li Zicheng died in Susong and became an immortal legend.
