The history of Taiyuan Niutuo Village
Niutuo Highway, referred to as "Niutuo Road", is a suburban road from the city to the Niutuo Village and Guadigou area in the eastern Bianshan Mountains. The road starts from Niutuo Village in the east and ends at Jianhe Railway Bridge in the west. It is named after the village.
Niutuo Village, also known as Niutuo Village, is well-known in the Three Jin Dynasties because of its important military location and the danger of forming a barrier to the east of Taiyuan. According to legend, the name of Niutuo was not its original name. The name in the early years was actually "Liu Chuan". Speaking of the origin of "Liu Yu", we have to start with the reconstruction of Jinyang City by Li Cunxu, the founder of the Later Tang Dynasty.
After the peasant uprising led by Huang Chao in the late Tang Dynasty was suppressed, Li Keyong from Shatuo was named King of Jin and stationed in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province for his meritorious service in suppressing the peasant uprising. Later, Zhu Wen overthrew the Tang Dynasty and established the Later Liang Dynasty. Ke Yong's son Li Cunxu confronted Zhu Wen and succeeded Tang Zuo. He dominated Taiyuan and was known as the Later Tang Dynasty in history.
In the early period of the Later Tang Dynasty, Jinyang was the capital, so Li Cunxu started to build Jinyang. At that time, the area around today's Guadigou still had towering old trees, dense forests, and large streams. Li then took advantage of the transportation convenience of the Jianhe River to cut down the trees and transport them into the Fenhe River and then to the ancient city of Jinyang. At that time, there were no village residents in what is now Niutuo Village, so the Li family sent soldiers and civilians to garrison here and set up a garrison area called "Liuhe". Over time, "Liu Zhen" evolved into a homophone for "Niu Tuo".
In the Ming Dynasty, Ida cavalry often went south to invade Taiyuan. As the place where Shanxi's highest chief executive is stationed and one of the nine important towns, Taiyuan's defense work is very important. For this reason, troops are stationed at "Niutuo", a strategic military location in Dongshan Mountain on the outskirts of the city, and rural warriors are organized to garrison here, hence the name "Taiyuan". Niutuo Village". During the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese invaders first captured Niutuo Village, then captured Yinghui Gate and occupied Taiyuan.
At the moment when two fates were fighting on the land of China, Shanxi warlord Yan Xishan once tried to hinder the liberation of Taiyuan by using the dangerous terrain and refined fortifications of Niutuo Village. However, those who gain the right will get many help, while those who lose the right will get little help. Under the torrential attacks of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, Taiyuan's city defenses turned into withered trees. It was from Niutuo Village along today's Niutuo Road that the People's Liberation Army invaded Taiyuan City.
Now, in the mountains east of Niutuo Road, a magnificent martyrs’ cemetery, Niutuozhai Martyrs Cemetery, has been completed. The "Taiyuan Liberation Monument" towers into the clouds. It is majestic and majestic. The monument is based on the mountain and the peak supports the monument, like a pillar in the sky. The key-like shape means that this is the "key" to open Taiyuan. The whole monument is 49.424 meters high, marking the liberation of Taiyuan on April 24, 1949.
In this newly expanded cemetery, the "Taiyuan Liberation Campaign Exhibition Hall" was also built, which vividly and vividly reproduces the entire Taiyuan Liberation Campaign. Every plant and tree in the cemetery seems to tell people the heroic deeds of the martyrs.
