The Yellow River is really wide and huge zigzag, running through canyons, jumping over waterfalls and crossing the Loess Plateau. How magnificent! However, the Yellow River also has its tender side, and it is the mother of the Chinese nation. Kindness, admiration, admiration.
The Yangtze River is not like this. If we compare the Yellow River to our mother, then the Yangtze River can be said to be our father. He never shows off anything to us. The scenery along the way, he silently realized, the times have changed, and he quietly watched. In his mobile area, there have been countless famous ministers, princes and talented people. Since ancient times, Jiangnan has been full of talented people, worthy of the name.
Emperors of past dynasties mostly set their capitals in the north to resist foreign invasion. Although it is convenient to send troops and follow suit, once the leading generals are defeated or defect to the enemy, the capital will be like a lamb to be slaughtered, shivering under the enemy's butcher knife. This was the situation in Zhu Qizhen at that time. He also went to the Tatar tribe "Beishou". It can be said that it lost the face of the Ming Dynasty. Thanks to Yu Qian, otherwise, half of the country will fall into the hands of foreigners. Someone wants to ask, why did you lose half of your country? Where can the emperor go after the fall of Beijing?
This is the credit of the Yangtze River. On the edge of the Yangtze River, there is a city called Yingtian in ancient times and Nanjing now, which is the second capital of the Ming Dynasty. Because of the natural barrier of the Yangtze River, it is an excellent refuge for the monarch who has lost half of his country. When the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom fell, Zeng Guofan's younger brother led troops to bomb indiscriminately. It took him two months to capture the outer city of the city, but he shouted happily, "It will be broken!" " After that, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom went down the river, which was the role of the Yangtze River in the war.
In governing the country, the Yangtze River still has advantages. During the Three Kingdoms period, Dongwu relied on the natural barrier of the Yangtze River to resist the repeated invasions of Liu Bei and Cao Cao. Otherwise, Zhuge Liang, no matter how clever he is in Chibi, can't help Cao Cao's navy fleet. Zhuge Liang once said in Longzhong Dui: "Sun Quan owns Jiangdong, which has lasted for three generations. National danger is attached to the people, and the sage can use it. This can be for aid, but not for profit. " It can be seen that people who are better than Zhu Gekongming have a headache for Jiangdong. The influence of the Yangtze River on the political structure can be seen.
The Yangtze River is also one of the transportation hubs in China, with a total length of more than 6,000 kilometers, which is bigger than radius of the earth, and the length can be imagined. In ancient times, all kinds of products in Suzhou, Hangzhou, Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces flowed to all parts of China with the development of Yangtze River shipping. For example, the Southern Song Dynasty was built in Yingtianfu. Taking the Yangtze River as a natural barrier, when the Mongols invaded, they fought bravely and repelled Qiang Bing in one fell swoop, which laid a history of more than a hundred years in the Southern Song Dynasty, which was bounded by the Great Three Passes.
The Southern Song Dynasty was the peak of the development of science and technology, agriculture and science and technology industry in China, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. This is also the reason why a group of outstanding poets such as Zhang, Zhang and Zhang expressed their sense of humiliation and resentment over national subjugation. They inherited Su Shi's bold and unconstrained style of writing and set a precedent for Xin Qiji and others. Therefore, the poetry of the Southern Song Dynasty developed very rapidly, which laid a vital foundation for China's later poetry mileage. And all this is based on one foundation: that is, the country is rich and the people are safe. Imagine, where can people go without a country?
Throughout the history of China, the Yangtze River has played the role of savior more than once. Because of him, all countries walk the Wan Li Road, and some can drag out an ignoble existence because of him. He is like the patron saint of the Chinese nation. When someone invades his children, he will bravely protect his children and help them repel the invaders. It can be said that the Yellow River is our mother river and our birthplace. The Yangtze River is a big umbrella to shelter us from the wind and rain when we grow up. Let us go upstream in the wind and rain, and start the historical accumulation and inheritance of the Chinese nation for 5,000 years. Among the four ancient civilizations, except China, all have historical dating, while China has not. Because we have our own roots, eternal roots.
When we were weak, the stout roots plunged into the ground like Wolong, desperately absorbing nutrients, giving us the ability and courage to stand firm in the storm. Nowadays, the seedlings shivering in the thunder and lightning have thrived and grown into towering trees. We should open a huge canopy to cover this soil and provide shade for the tired roots. Because trees have no roots, can they still live? So do we. The Yangtze River is our root, and we should protect it with our lives.
The water is still flowing, but the root will never change, because that is our root, where does our beating heart come from, and where does our rushing blood come from. Because there is water, roots and us.
