Chapter 802: The Glorious History of Seoul



"Brother Tang, please introduce it to me in detail. I don't think there are any tourist attractions here." Luo Yuzhu couldn't help but say.

Tang Xiaobao frowned and said, "No? Have you seen history?"

Luo Yuzhu was stunned and said carefully: "Brother Tang, what's wrong with you?"

"fine."

Tang Xiaobao burst out laughing and couldn't help but say, "Okay, then I'll tell you about the history of this place."

"Okay, I'll listen." Luo Yuzhu sat obediently on the stone slab on the side, covering her cheeks with her hands, looking serious.

Tang Xiaobao's smile faded. When he talked about history, it always made people feel solemn.

"Dehancheng, also known as Anjizhai, is named after the famous scenic spots in Shu. When Liu Bang was King of Hanzhong and pacified the Three Qins, his chancellor, Xiao He, stayed behind in Bashu and used Dehancheng as a base for storing grain and garrisoning troops. Emperor Gaozu of Han used it as a supply route and ultimately defeated Xiang Yu, the Overlord of Western Chu, and ultimately conquered the world by destroying Chu and establishing Han. Hence the name Dehancheng."

Luo Yuzhu was a little surprised: "So that's how Seoul got its name."

Tang Xiaobao said, "Dehan City has always held an important strategic position throughout history and was a key military stronghold in northeastern Sichuan. In the second year of the Song Dynasty's Chunyou reign (1242 AD), the Mongol Emperor Mongke led his troops to invade Sichuan. They divided their forces into three routes and launched an attack along the entire Yangtze River against the Song army. Yu Jie, the Sichuan pacification envoy, implemented the strategic policy of a mountain city defense system of 'building fortifications on the mountainside and relying on the terrain to resist'. He appointed the commander-in-chief Zhang Shi to lead the troops and build a city based on the dangerous terrain and store grain. He was known as one of the Eight Pillars of Sichuan's resistance against the Yuan Dynasty during the Southern Song Dynasty."

"Brother Tang, you know so much." Luo Yuzhu exclaimed with admiration.

"It's all in the books. I've read some books about Seoul before."

Tang Xiaobao pointed to a huge rock a few kilometers away and asked, "Do you remember it?"

"Remember, didn't you take me to see it when we passed by just now? That's Chongshizhai, formed naturally by several large stones. There's also the story of Luban Bridge, and a temple was built on the stones. You see, the ancients were really amazing. How did they transport so many stones up there? They built them into parapets, especially that road, which is only wide enough for one person to climb." Luo Yuzhu exclaimed.

"That place is actually the outpost of Dehan City, just like the Leigu City across the river. Whenever there is an enemy, the people on the city will beat the drums to give a warning, or use fire as a signal. It makes people's blood boil just thinking about it." Tang Xiaobao couldn't help but imagine.

Luo Yuzhu nodded and said, "Brother Tang, please tell me more stories about Seoul. I want to hear your stories."

"story?"

Tang Xiaobao was stunned and said seriously, "That's history."

Then he continued, "In the third year of the Jiaqing reign of the Qing Dynasty, the White Lotus Sect was prevalent. To avoid the White Lotus Sect, the Tongjiang County Government was moved to Dehan City. This was during the Qing Dynasty. In modern times, Dehan City also made great military achievements for the Huaxia Empire."

Luo Yuzhu blinked. "Tongjiang County has the remains of the Red Fourth Front Army, and this is also the famous Red Army City. There must be more stories, right?"

"That's right. In 1932, the Fourth Red Army entered Sichuan and established the Sichuan-Shaanxi Revolutionary Base, leaving behind a wealth of historical relics in Tongjiang County. For example, there's a museum at the Wangping Martyrs Cemetery. Oh, I've strayed off topic, let's talk about Seoul. Back then, this was the base's main rear base. The Red Army established the Northwest Revolutionary Committee, the Red Army Radio Station, the Pengyang Military School, the Security Bureau, the Mint, the Red Army Hospital, and other institutions here."

Luo Yuzhu asked in surprise, "Was the Pengyang Military School once built here? But I only saw the ruins of the hospital, why didn't I see the school?"

"The school later became a village primary school," Tang Xiaobao said with a wry smile. "We didn't even think about protecting it back then, so now we have to spend all the effort to restore and repair it."

Luo Yuzhu sighed, "Brother Tang, you must find a way to introduce this place to the world. Dehancheng has made such a great contribution to history, and it cannot be forgotten by the world, otherwise it will be a real pity."

Tang Xiaobao nodded heavily and said seriously, "I will. This is also the original intention of my willingness to develop tourism in Tongjiang. Not only Dehancheng, but the entire Tongjiang has too many resources that can be developed. As a Tongjiang native, it is my responsibility."

With stars in her eyes, Luo Yuzhu looked up at Tang Xiaobao and said infatuatedly, "Brother Tang, are all men so handsome when they are serious?"

sweat.

Tang Xiaobao was looking worried about the country and the people, but his expression suddenly changed. He turned his head to look at Luo Yuzhu. From his angle, he could just see the spring scenery under Luo Yuzhu's collar.

Suddenly, he felt a little embarrassed.

"Let's go back and have dinner." Tang Xiaobao pulled Luo Yuzhu up and jumped off the city wall.

Tang Xiaobao drove his car to the doorstep and stopped. Dahei pounced on him and barked a few times.

"Dahei!"

Tang Xiaobao got out of the car and shouted, Luo Yuzhu hid behind him, both of them holding full bags.

Dahei came over with his tail wagging, circled around Tang Xiaobao, and finally sniffed at Luo Yuzhu, which scared Luo Yuzhu so much that her face turned pale.

"Tang, Tang, Brother Tang, it won't bite me, right?"

"Just kidding, our Dahei has a very good eye." Tang Xiaobao laughed.

Tang Qingshan and his wife, who had heard the news, hurried over to greet them. Seeing Luo Yuzhu, Wu Chunmei stepped forward, still timidly acknowledging her: "Are you Miss Luo?"

"Auntie, I'm here to see you." Luo Yuzhu stepped forward and called out obediently, "Uncle, are you feeling well?"

"Very good, come in quickly, what did you bring?" Tang Qingshan complained: "Why bring so many things back to your own home? You can't spend money recklessly."

Tang Xiaobao smiled and said, "Yuzhu bought them all."

Luo Yuzhu blushed and felt a little embarrassed.

This money was paid by Tang Xiaobao.

"Look, you're here just like that, why bring any gifts?" Wu Chunmei said with a smile.

“It should be.”

Tang Qingshan and his wife exchanged glances, a little confused.

It's a bit scary that my son brings a girl home every now and then.

They don't want to get involved, but that's easier said than done.

After entering the house, everyone sat down on the sofa. Wu Chunmei went to pour two glasses of water: "You must be thirsty. Come, have some water."

Luo Yuzhu took a sip and started giving gifts.

Placing the gifts one by one on the coffee table, Luo Yuzhu looked at Tang Qingshan and his wife, who had strange expressions on their faces, as if frightened. She couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. She said carefully, "Uncle, Aunt, I'm not very good at choosing gifts, and I don't know what you like. Are you not very fond of them?"

Tang Qingshan came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly: "No, no, no, we just think this gift is too expensive. It must cost a lot of money, right?"

"It's a bit much, but it really didn't cost much, just three or four thousand yuan." Luo Yuzhu said quickly.

Tang Xiaobao chuckled.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, he sat up straight.

"What are you laughing at?" Wu Chunmei asked.
