June 23: Lijiang - Shek Kwu Town - bridge - the next tiger jumped - the tiger jump
Lugu Lake, when that paragraph was particularly busy, the results of the second day of the trip is only two lines written on the ending, but in fact the day after we returned to Lijiang, or done some things - big purchase. One think of the next two days to walk across the Tiger Leaping Gorge, we will be a little bit scared, after all, every day over the past year sitting in front of the computer to write code, play a maximum of twice a week, three swimming squash badminton tour, and nothing physically prepared. Northwest Yunnan is said that some people come to one or two months before the start distance running, mountain climbing or something, exercise cardiopulmonary function of anti-reaction to high altitudes, we have no ready, but a little, so I think tomorrow we should carrying 65 liters of the backpack can not help but walk across the Grand Canyon Fat virtual heart. Now even the last-minute attempt is too late, can only rely on themselves more than to buy some supplies to embolden.
Did not expect to buy a buy with Comrade Mao Zedong speak: "Things are starting change." At first everyone in some chocolate, mineral water, like food, slowly turned into a shopping and I Junxiong followed Shu-hui, Helen King of the two shopping, in the end also can imagine. First, one of four bought a hand-painted hieroglyphic Dongba culture of T-shirt, I painted two of those cases were sitting in the moonlight a ship, said to be "life has a" I think probably the same password similar hieroglyphics, may accumulate to decipher only after a certain amount of light to the words I do not see how the link; accompanied Shu-hui in the boulder and then under the bridge, "Bunun bell" to buy the famous "killer bells" that is, a very cute little bell, divided into brass and bronze male female bell bell, bell vigorous male, female-Ling Qing Yue, was very pleasing. This is said to home "Bunun bell" quite certain extent, in Nepal have opened a branch in Athens, after a chance Dequkankan.
In this way all the way shopping has always been corrupt to ten o'clock before returning to the youth hostel to sleep, starting the next day to kill the hungry 7:00 Shigu town.
Shek Kwu town to face rock drums is named, is located in the Yangtze River First Beach hub, due to the river at this turn of a 150-degree bend, so water potential relatively flat, which will help cross the river, is the Tea-Horse Road on the important ports. Legend Zhuge Liang then often had mishaps Meng Huo, "May ferry Lu," took place here; the thirteenth century Mongol armies of Kublai rate of crossing the river from here wiped away by Dali; in 1935 the main Red Army was also spent here, in three columns the Yangtze River, thus Hsueh, Wu Qiwei from behind the General thrown far behind. Qi Lv Mao's "long march" goes: "Cloud Cliff Sands shoot warm water, large Bridge horizontal cold iron chain" refers to here (in another 10 days we will reach the iron chain on the Dadu River Bridge). Li Shek Kwu the town has a statue depicting more than 60 years ago, a local boatman to help the Red Army crossing the river scene. Mao Tse-tung said that Joseph was sent to look for a former Marshal Liu Bocheng ferry, the road, a small local officials holding a piece of paper orders to burn the people along the Yangtze River vessel, Liu Bocheng falsely claiming himself as a "national army" officers, so that this person lead the way has been found burned together to prepare a large number of vessels, and to persuade to help them cross the river boatmen, boatmen heard that it is the poor's own ranks, also readily agreed. Once the Red Army crossed the Yangtze River, from Yunnan into Sichuan, suddenly into the sea and never came back as a dragon. 25000 li long march from this point on the road map can be seen: in Jiangxi, Hunan, Guizhou, Yunnan and other places of the Central Red Army to escape pursuit, marching routes strange complex, and even performed with a four through the Chishui River The good play (a matter that is still demoted praise mixed, some people thought it was clever, disrupting the KMT's military deployment, some people think that this is a result of the strategic objectives is not clear the futility of hard work, in any case, when the little one Guerrillas have been ten times the regular army had been before and after the interception of illegal immigrants find any, does the fact); to wait until they entered Sichuan to normal after the line that much can be said that the way to Phi hurdles forward with indomitable spirit of the. This is starting a Chinese warlord situation was explained.
For the Chinese Communist Red Army naturally strategic shift in terms of meaning, soon after arriving in northern Shaanxi Sino-Japanese War broke out, and the guerrilla army behind enemy lines has grown to rely on their own, also received broad mass base in the North, which is cramped in the past, Hunan and Jiangxi along the mountain era unthinkable.
For the KMT also has great march in terms of significance, that is, a unified march to help the National Chiang Kai-shek. Zhejiang Jiang rely on the support of the consolidation of Anglo-American tycoons, and the Nanjing government, through the Northern Expedition control of the South China and East China; through Guangxi right Tang Shengzhi of war and the war on the control of the central Guangxi; through the Central Plains War control of the Central Plains; through the incorporation has collapsed Feng Yuxiang's army in control of the North West; to Ma Hongkui transferred into the Northwest Army formed after the Central Plains northwest of the vacuum, thus the use of Muslim forces in control of the north-west, leaving only the southwest and a few isolated provinces (such as Guangdong, Shanxi and Xinjiang) have not yet controlled by the Central Army. Red Army forces of nature to these weak sites, the transfer of local warlords, while the "national army" followed, creating a situation that wherever the Red Army, the Central Army would be "unified" where. For example, Guizhou, Guizhou from the 1911 Revolution began as separations, 20 years looking from another eight under the banner until the Chinese Communist march, the local warlord Wang Lie was the Red Army defeated the KMT after the return of Guizhou, was re-the central government. Guizhou, one loss, Yunnan, opened its doors to the Central Army Yun also had to put into Yunnan.
Sichuan is also such a situation. As the complex terrain of Sichuan warlord Lin, compare the "big only" is Liu Wenhui Liu Xiangshu nephew, but why are the two irreconcilable, one in Chengdu, one in Chongqing, East-West confrontation, and later in combination with other small warlords Liu Xiang, Liu Wenhui Department will buy again, and finally pushed into Ya Liu Wenhui to go fishing, but although the nominal from Sichuan, Liu Xiang unity, in fact, large and small warlords are still in a state of strife with each other.
The Red Army entered Sichuan, the Chiang Kai-shek had intended to old tricks, sending the Central Army followed Liu Xiang was waiting for an opportunity to seize the power, but unlike the Wang-Lie Liu Xiang as incompetent and trampled. He entered the Sichuan side of the Central Army zone to prevent the one hand, the Red Army Zhuidu Joseph sent separate ways. Joseph is a well-known lowly helpless, Yichujikui; with Liu Xiang heads feel giddy, actually sent a feng shui "Liu god" to lead troops. The gods send troops before the first divination Liu, "accounted for" to let the forces fired after an auspicious "appropriate" way to go, results are often sent to troops on the cliffs of nowhere, so the prediction comes true, "Fearless" commanders with predictable results!
It is for these reasons, even before the Red Army in the Dadu River in Sichuan, the number of folders Jinshan Road, a natural barrier, such as unhindered, and all the way straight to take Songpan, a northwest Sichuan Gannan Since then, no more scruples of. Our trip in Sichuan Changzheng many routes coincide with the year in many places still look insurmountable - especially the snow-covered folder Jinshan - Looking back over 60 years ago Zhezhi ragged peasant army did not project force, without behind a stable supply of rations, there is no car there's no boat, relies entirely on a pair of bare feet across so many difficulties and dangers, leaving aside their political background, just the dauntless heroism of this is enough to make an endless posterity admired.
Of course, Mr. Jiang finally step by step, Gao Ding Sichuan, the Central Army able to enter, he staged a Emei Officers Training Corps, calling them to Joseph the training officer, to intervene in Sichuan, the military; and permit recovery of Szechwan spy agency Liu's Sichuan Province with a special detachment to the so-called "surveillance", meddling in Sichuan politics; to wait until the war began, he was transferred out of Sichuan Joseph Liu Xiang and other separate ways the anti-Japanese, but sent in Dr. Wu Hanjie of the preparations for the front hand treatment Liu Xiang poison, took advantage of Joseph rudderless and yet so far in the war front-line review of the opportunity to control the Chuan Kang perfection. Speaking of trickery, Mr. Chiang generation of outstanding personality really, if both the level of military command, then I do not know how China is now the situation is a pity that he almost did not, and simply the whole nation in the Northern Expedition, as well as the anti-Japanese revolutionary exploits celebrated in Huangpu military personnel people, wiped out the wave of resistance.
Pull a long gossip and return to the Shek Kwu town. Shek Kwu town is a hillside town, very southwest of the town's taste, worthy of tourists along the crooked mottled been hundreds of years old caravans passing foot of the stairs was extremely smooth, style walk the streets. Of course, if the same happened was as we go to the market, followed by the flow of people from all sides and slowly walk through a variety of small vendors in between, from time to time to buy some cheap and tasty local snacks, while the man in front of you The basket carried on where they happen to have two lovely pig stare you in touch with the soul of the exchange of ideas, then you can visit the town of Shek Kwu be described as perfect.
