Six hundred years are undoubtedly just a wave in the long river of history. However, the flowers bloomed and withered in a blink of an eye, and the Ming Empire was wiped out. Instead, the forts left in the mountains and wilds allowed today's people to bathe in the afterglow of the empire. See To the back of a dynasty leaving.
It is hard to imagine how the Tunpu culture, which was formed after 300 years of Ming Dynasty military reclamation, could overcome the 300-year cultural barrier of Qing Dynasty with the most severe feudal restrictions? How to resist external cultural erosion? How could you persevere for more than three hundred years when you were traveling alone without any help?
Everything remains to be opened in the history of Tunpu to find the truth. Perhaps, the facts have passed over time, leaving a large blank in history, but even if there are thousands of threads, there will be two chapters on it.
In terms of life, survival is the first priority. Culture is closely related to this. What kind of production mode often has what kind of cultural state. To put it more deeply, to maintain the continuity of a cultural form, the first priority is the soil that generates this culture-the mode of production. The presence. Guizhou obviously has a natural environment suitable for rice farming in the south of the Yangtze River. Tunpu culture is undoubtedly rooted in the soil of rice farming production methods in the Yangtze River Basin. The Jiangnan farming method with a history of thousands of years has not only been adopted in southern Guizhou , southwestern Guizhou and other places, but has also blossomed and bore fruit, affecting agriculture in surrounding areas. Naturally, culture goes with it. It is not difficult to imagine that the advanced economic model and cultural superiority were enough to make Tunpu people proud of the legacy. At that time, although the Guizhou nation was backward in production, its culture had a strong self-awareness and personality. It is impossible to change, and the power of Tunpu culture is far from reaching the point of expansion, or, because of its advantages, it has become complacent and conservative. As a result, Tunpu culture thrived alone on a relatively isolated island. It was also a military reclamation route, and when the forts were in full swing, the Jiangnan cultural model of the Ming Dynasty might not be so lucky in other places. Take the Ming Dynasty Great Wall along the Hexi Corridor as an example. The Ming Dynasty also had military camps there. However, to this day, either people go to the castles to die, or even if there are still people living in the castles, they are basically people who moved in later, and the dynasty atmosphere is gone. , Yongtai Castle is the proof. Let’s take Lintan New Town in the mountainous area as an example. It was once an important military town. Except for the colloquial words and some festival customs of the few Han people living there, it can be seen that the new town is inextricably linked to the south of the Yangtze River. , the Hui people who live in the new city account for the majority of the population, and Muslim culture is everywhere. You must know that most of the troops stationed in Hexi and Xincheng come from the densely populated areas in the south of the Yangtze River. However, due to geographical climate, facing the nomadic people in Hexi and the half-agricultural and semi-pastoral production method in Xincheng, and the farmers can only grow wheat, there is no need to It is not as easy as Guizhou to grow rice, let alone making a difference. Changes in production methods determine the survival of cultural methods.
Culture is naturally related to people. The number of military personnel in Guizhou must be quite large, and the distance between the forts is appropriate, which facilitates contact and ensures the self-reproduction of the villagers. Otherwise, the forts in Hexi are sparsely populated and the distance between the forts is far away. The basis for marriage and childbirth? If people disappear or change, how can the skin of culture be attached?
Guizhou Tunbao is a fallen leaf, but we are thankful that it is like a solitary boat carrying the past that has escaped the waves of history, allowing future generations to travel through hundreds of years to capture the remains of the weak empire's military reclamation. The long period of survival and persistence in the cracks undoubtedly has nothing to do with the war. I am afraid that Tunpu gave up the war on the eve of the empire's demise. Everything related to the military has gradually become a habit and a way of life. If not, and the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, and Wu Sangui 's cavalry would have wiped out the mere Tunbu! If not, the duel between Kangxi and Wu Sangui would have allowed Tunpu to be safe...
