The old friend left the Yellow Crane Tower and fireworks went down to Yangzhou in March.

A poem by the poet Li Bai invisibly added a few green and ink elegance to this scenic city located in the south of the Yangtze River and on the bank of the Grand Canal.

This is a blessed land.

It is adjacent to the Yangtze River in the south and the canal in the east. The canal transport is prosperous and the commerce and trade is developed.

As Yangzhou, which has always been known as "the first city of China's canal", after Emperor Yang Guang of Sui made a stroke of his pen and drew the so-called lifeline of the canal transportation that was worthy of thousands of years on the map, Yangzhou became one of the few important cities and important cities in the south of the Yangtze River.

But it is also because of this so-called heavy city name that has brought thousands of years of pain to Yangzhou and the people living on this land.

A place that must be fought for by military strategists.

This city that rapidly flourished and grew during the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the first war of war was the Huang Chao Uprising that swept most of China. After the army of the uprising army was involved in the northwest and entered the south of the Yangtze River, it fought a desperate battle with the Tang Dynasty in Yangzhou.

The only result of Yangzhou City's change of hands several times was that this giant city, which was once a crowd of people and was worth 500,000, was reduced to ruins and turned into a ghost city.

By the special historical period of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Yangzhou was like every city pass in the world, and was involved in the melee of the princes for more than fifty years.

The world's general trend will be divided for a long time. In the seventh year of Xiande of the Later Zhou Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin's yellow robe at Chenqiao Post Station was put on, carrying the vast and irreversible trend of history, and once again promoted the progress of the times.

Yangzhou finally settled down.

Just like every new dynasty in history, although the Song Dynasty was not as vast as the unified dynasties such as the Han and Tang dynasties, the rich areas in the Central Plains were all under the rule of the central government, with people's livelihood and strong national strength.

To others, when you are full and warm, you think about the **; to the emperor, you think about the stability of the country.

After the founding of the country, Zhao Guangyi could not sit still. Every time he unfolded the scroll of history, he wanted to smear his name and engrave his name forever into the long river of history, and to shine brightly and shine forever.

He succeeded.

Successfully kept the title of Gao Shan River Car God.

Not only did he not recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, he also left more than half of the elite troops of the Song Dynasty in Youzhou forever.

So the Song Dynasty became honest again. From the Battle of Gaoliang River to the Northern Expedition of Yongxi, perhaps it was a failure again and again, or perhaps it was the injury on the butt that hurts every time it rained. Zhao Er finally became honest and dared not talk about the Northern Expedition again after death.

The long river of time has entered a new node, Xianping.

The Song Dynasty ushered in a new era of prosperity. The new emperor Zhao Heng's new policies on tax saving, opening up the sea, and reform of trade made the Song Dynasty more vigorous and vigorous vitality and made every corner of society prosperous.

As the first city of the canal, Yangzhou is naturally more prosperous, and the comfort brought by rapid economic development and social prosperity will smooth out all the pain and scars left by history.

Even if the Song and Liao dynasties were still confronting each other near the Daming Prefecture in the north, and a new and more powerful war was brewing, no matter how far the wolf smoke in the north was blown, it would never be able to cross thousands of mountains and rivers, affecting the singing and dancing of Shengping in Jiangnan.

This year, this day, this moment.

A beggar flocked into Yangzhou City like a crowd of people migrating from the north to the south for a stable life. No one would pay attention to it, and no one needed to pay attention.

Who would pay attention to a beggar?
