Kyushu has a long history. "Kyushu" was originally a virtual reference, and later it gradually became concrete. Literally, the word "Zhou" is written as "A" in the inscription, just like the shape of a highland (hill) surrounded by a river. The eleventh sentence of Shuo Wen Jie Zi says: "Water can live in Yuezhou." It can be seen that its original intention is similar to the word "Zhou" of "Island on the River" in The Book of Songs Feng Wang Guanju, which has nothing to do with administrative divisions. In ancient times, there was abundant precipitation, and people often lived on high hills near the water, so Zhou became the name of residential areas, so there were expressions such as Zhou Xia, Rongzhou, Pingzhou, Yangzhou, Waizhou, Guazhou and being a state soldier, just like Shangqiu and being a state soldier. The word "nine" has two meanings: one is the exact meaning, such as the "nine" of "nine princes in eight years"; First, empty refers to many meanings, such as the "nine" in Jiusan, Jiuchuan, Jiuze, Jiuji and Jiuyuan. Since "Zhou" is a small geographical existence, and "the vastness is painted as Kyushu as jade", "Nine" can't be a definite reference, but a virtual reference. Therefore, from the original intention, "Kyushu" never refers to nine large-scale administrative divisions, but the general name of highlands (hills) surrounded by many rivers; Because of people, it is also extended to the name of "the whole country", and it is still called "the world" and "the four seas".
Later, Kyushu finally materialized into nine large-scale administrative divisions. Because in the existing reliable data, the specific "Kyushu" only appeared in the Warring States period, but not in the Spring and Autumn Period, so its time may be in the early Warring States period.
Zhou Li Xia Guanzhi Local Records says: Yangzhou in the southeast, Jingzhou in the south, Yuzhou in the south, Qingzhou in the east, Yanzhou in the east, Yongzhou in the west, Youzhou in the northeast, and Hanoi and Bing in Jizhou in the north. (Yi Zhihe is the same. Considering that Zhou Li is systematic, it is probably copied from Yi. )
"Lu Chunqiu, the beginning of a view, the beginning" says: "What is Kyushu? Between this river and the Han Dynasty are Yuzhou and Zhou Ye. Between the two rivers are Jizhou and Jinye. Between the river and the economy are Yanzhou and Ye Wei. East is Qingzhou, Qi also. See Xuzhou and Luye. Yangzhou is in the southeast, and so is Vietnam. The south is Jingzhou and Chu. Yongzhou in the west, Qin also. The north is Youzhou, Yan also. "
Shangdong: Jizhou, Jizhou, Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Jingzhou, Hengyang, Yuzhou, Huayang, Heishui and Liangzhou.
Erya Dish says: "Jizhou is the name of the two rivers, Yuzhou is the name of Henan, Luozhou is the name of Hexi, Jingzhou is the name of Hannan, Yangzhou is the name of Jiangnan, Yanzhou is the name of Jidong, Youzhou is the name of Yan, and Yingzhou is the name of Qi."
"Huainanzi Terrain Training" said: "What is Kyushu? Shenzhou in the southeast is called agricultural soil, due south is fertile soil, Yeongju in the southwest is deep soil, Yanzhou in the west is mixed soil, Jizhou in the middle is middle soil, Taizhou in the northwest is fertile soil, Zhangzhou in the north is soil, Bozhou in the northeast is latent soil, and Yangzhou in the east is soil. "
The Book of the Later Han Dynasty, Zhang Hengchuan, quoted River Map as saying, "There are nine or eight dynasties in heaven and eight pillars in Kyushu. In the southeast of China, it is called morning soil, in the south, Zhou Ang is called deep soil, in the southwest, Rongzhou is called deep soil, in the west, it is called soil, in the middle of Jizhou, it is called fertile soil, in the north, Xuanzhou is called soil, in the northeast, it is called latent soil, and in the east, Yangzhou is called soil. "
The beginner's book, Volume 8, Prefectural Office, General Account, Prefectural County, "River Map Enclosing Land" first quotes: "There are nine roads in the sky and Kyushu in the land. There are nine or eight years in the sky and eight pillars in Kyushu in the earth. The city of Kunlun, the next hole contains power; The state of Chixian is the principle of neutrality. China in the southeast, Yingzhou in the south, Rongzhou in the southwest, Shizhou in the west, Jizhou in the middle, Zhuzhou in the northwest, Xuanzhou in the north, Duke of Zhou in the north, Jizhou in the northeast, Zhouxian in the east and Yangzhou in the east. "
Although the above materials are closely related, there are obvious differences, especially the first four and the last three. For example, all articles have the words Yanzhou, Yanzhou and Yanzhou. The Book of Beginners was wrongly written as a state collection), but the first four articles were located between Jing and He, and the last three were located in "due west"; The same is true of Jizhou and Yangzhou (wrong hair Yangzhou, Yangzhou, Yanggu Zuoyang). Therefore, the above materials should basically be divided into two factions: the first four factions are one faction, which can be temporarily called the "Zhou Li" faction; The latter three are one school, which can be temporarily called the "River Map" school.
Although there are differences between different factions, the area covered by Kyushu basically conforms to the rule of the Zhou Dynasty, and the distribution of each state is roughly the same as that of the Han and Jin Dynasties, so it is easy to understand and there is not much doubt. The most questioned school is Hetu. The school of "River Map" calls it "West One State", a state in the west of Shandong (or between rivers). This has been the case since ancient times, and it is still the case today. Isn't the scope of Kyushu limited to Shandong? The Hetu School has eight states, which are distributed in eight directions determined by the southeast and northwest, with Jizhou in the middle.
Some people also wrote articles to demonstrate that Xia's family and Xia's family, which started from the Yellow Emperor, probably originated in Shandong and moved to Henan in the middle and late Xia Dynasty. If this view can be established, the doubts of the "River Map" school can be solved. If the scope of Yu's water control and other activities is in Shandong except Jiaodong, then Kyushu (imaginary finger) drawn according to the vast traces of Yu can only be limited to Shandong. Later (in the early Warring States period), Kyushu became concrete. If you know the truth (many people don't know the truth, such as Zuo, etc.), scholars will still limit it to Shandong, and look for place names in Shandong to determine the state name. This is the most reasonable explanation.
Moreover, Kyushu, the school of River Map, can now find the source of Shandong's place names. Details are as follows:
Yizhou is now Yanzhou. 30 miles west of the city, there is a mountain called Yishan, also known as Yishan and Yanshan, probably because the nearby rock country is the mythical entry place for China and Japan. On it, there is a god named ji zi. The Mountain and Sea Sutra and the Wild West Sutra say, "There is a god named ji zi on the West Haizhu." The West Sea is the ancient Onozawa, west of the mountain. The name of Yizhou came from this; Taizhou (or a fake state, which belongs to Zhuzhou), Liezi Huangdi said: "The country of Hua Xushi is in the west of Yanzhou and north of Taizhou." This land is difficult to test. Or from the local chronicles and historical sites1Jinan mansion Licheng county in volume 33 of Tongzhi Gutai county, Shandong province: "Taixian ancient city, located in Han Zhi county, belongs to Jinan county, 80 miles east of the county, in Qiyi in the Spring and Autumn Period. In the sixth year of Emperor Gaudi, Fengdong County was appointed as the Tai Hou. " It is 30 miles northeast of Jinan, but the words Taiwan Province and Taiwan Province are old and unfamiliar. Xuanzhou's "Zhuangzi Reconsideration" said: "Yao ... works in Youdu." "Yao Dian of Shangshu" says: "Liu * * * is in Youzhou." Mystery and seclusion are the same, or the state of seclusion, which is difficult to test. Or Jeju, the northern part of Taiyi Mountain System (now the Yellow River Channel), hence the name Jeju, can also be reached. Bozhou (a salt state), in the northeast of Shandong Province, had a Bo Gu family in ancient times. Zhou Benji, a Historical Records, said that it was located in the northeast of Boxing County 15, hence its name.
Yangzhou, born in Chinese and Japanese mythology, has an ancient Yang country in the east of Shandong Province. The first volume of "Reading Historical Records" records the situation of cities in past dynasties: "There is Guyang country in the south of Yishui County. In other words, Yang Guo was originally in the southeast of Yidu County, and he was forced to move here. " See The Spring and Autumn Period Gong Min Two Years for the move of Qi. Yidu has rivers and rivers today, and Laizhou has Yangshan Qiushan in ancient times (Volume 138 of "Unification of the Qing Dynasty" Laizhou Fuyun: "Yangqiu Mountain is three miles southeast of Yexian County, also known as Maanshan." (now known as Daze Mountain), they may all be related to Yang Guo. The name of Yangzhou came from this; Shenzhou, "River Map Around the Earth" says: "Kunlun is five thousand miles southeast, which is called Shenzhou, with five mountains and emperors living there." It is difficult to verify the reality, but the surname Yuan said that "evil spirits have protoss", I wonder if it is related; Zhou Ang (or Asia) is difficult to test; Rongzhou, in the southwest of Shandong Province, has Xu Rong in ancient times. "Zuo Zhuan lived in seclusion for two years" wrote: "The guild is in danger." That is. The name of Rongzhou came from this.
Jizhou is in the middle. There are many words in the literature, such as "Li Chu Sao Ge", which says: "Jizhou is more than enough, but the world is insufficient." "Huainan Ming Xun" said: "Ji, in Kyushu, within the four seas today." But none of them pointed out the specific place.
I'm afraid the earliest known people who have an indissoluble bond with Jizhou are Huangdi and Chiyou. Shan Hai Jing Huang Da Bei Jing: "Chiyou attacked the Yellow Emperor for the soldiers, and the Yellow Emperor ordered Ying Long to attack the wilderness of Jizhou, ... so he killed Chiyou." "Yizhoushu Taste Wheat Solution": "Chiyou pursues the (red) emperor and strives for the Zhuolu, and the nine corners are clear. Chi Di was frightened and said that he was in the Yellow Emperor, holding Chiyou hostage and killing him in Zhongji. " Other materials related to the Yellow Emperor's battle against Chiyou are as follows: The Book of Beginners (Volume 9) quoted the First Sacrifice of Returning to Tibet: "Chiyou ..... comes from amniotic fluid, with eight arms and eight toes, climbing nine miles to cut empty mulberry, and the Yellow Emperor was killed in the clear autumn." "On Salt and Iron and Harmony": "The Yellow Emperor fought against Zhuolu and killed Chiyou, calling himself emperor."
Chi Di, also known as Yandi, is near Qufu today. Empty mulberry is poor mulberry. "Zuo Zhuan Zhao Gong Twenty-nine Years" said: "The young Luo family has four uncles ... The world will not neglect its duties, so it will help the poor Mulberry." Du Yu's note: "Poor mulberry is also known as less honest. ..... The poor mulberry land is in Lubei. " Poor mulberry is probably a small mountain range at the junction of Ningyang County and Qufu and Surabaya counties. The Yellow Emperor's residence is Xuanyuan Mountain, and The Classic of Mountains and Seas Overseas Western Classics says: "Xuanyuan Kingdom is in (this) [its north]. When the mountain is poor, its inactive people are 800 years old. [One day] The daughter country is north. A snake looks like a snake with a tail on its head. Its poor mountains in the north dare not shoot west for fear of Xuanyuan Mountain. [One day] in Xuanyuan Guobei. " If we say "dare not shoot west", then Xuanyuanqiu should be in poor Shanxi, and it is not reliable to say "once". Poor mountains and poor mulberry, the land is in "Lubei", which shows that Xuanyuan Mountain is in the northwest of Qufu. "Lu Chunqiu Shen Da" says: "After sealing the Yellow Emperor, it must be cast." After casting, it belongs to Sheqiu County, which is located in Guxian Village, XiaJang Jin, southwest of Tai 'an City, and northwest of Qufu. Since it is sealed here, it may be that this is where the mountain of the ancient Xuanyuan is located, at least not too far away. Zhuolu, namely Shulu, Candle dragon and Jiunao, is an ancient Shu country. "Zuo Zhuan Gong Xuan Eighteen Years" said: "Chu has the battle of Shu." Du Pre-note: "Shu, Lu, there is a Shu Pavilion in the northwest of Bo County, Taishan Mountain." In the west of Tai 'an today. It can be seen that there were Shu people here in ancient times. Shan Hai Jing Huang Da Bei Jing says: "Beyond the Northwest Sea, there is Zhang Wei in the north of Chishui. There is a god. The snake's face is red and its eyes are straight. ..... is Candle dragon. " Zhang Wei is Zhongshan Mountain, also known as Lushan Mountain and Dongshan Mountain. According to Mu's biography, the author proves that this mountain is probably the main peak of today's Mengshan Mountains. If so, the ancient Shu kingdom should be in the northeast of Pingyi County.
Ji, the bronze inscription "B" is like a double-sided figure. In ancient China, there was a custom of worshipping ghosts, and Jizhou immediately meant Ghost State. Liang's "Shuo Wen Jie Zi" is the first volume: "There is a human god, and the common cloud is a cow (hoof) [first? ], four eyes and six hands. ...... In the Qin and Han Dynasties, it was said that the Chiyou family had ears like swords and halberds and horns on their heads. They fought against Xuanyuan, and people could not fight with horns. " This is the image of a ghost. Chiyou was killed in Jizhou. It seems that he was killed in his own nest. Since Chi Di, Huangdi, Poor Mulberry and Zhuolu all originated from Si Wen, from this point of view, Chiyou and Jizhou should also be within the source range of Si Wen. "Tales of Strange Events" also said: "There is a musical name' Chiyou Opera' in Jizhou today, and its people are in twos and threes, and they complement each other through the corners. Han made a corner to cover his legacy. " There are many remains of Chiyou in Shandong, and there are Chiyou operas. According to Mr. Ma: "In the early years, the folks in surabaya county, Shandong Province kept this tradition." Can also be used as evidence.
More specifically, according to Mu's biography, the author proves that seawater is probably one of the tributaries of the Chaiwen River flowing through present-day xintai city. There are some controversies about Chai Wenhe in academic circles. According to the Notes on Shuijing and Wenshui, the ancient Chaiwen River, formerly known as Zishui, is called the "Chaiwen River in the World" because it flows through the northern part of the old town of Chaixian (now Chaicheng Village, xintai city), but its source is not today's Dongzhou River, but today's Liu Yanghe. "Twenty-six years of Zuo Gong" said: "The adults of Faqisi drank horses in Zi", which is 90 miles northeast of Ningyang County today, proving that the ancient Chai Wenhe River is really named Zi Shui, and Li said it should be justified. As for today's Dongzhou River, Shuijing Zhushui believes that it is the source of ancient waters and flows into Surabaya in the southwest. But today, the distance between Dongzhou River and Surabaya is related to mountains, and it is impossible to communicate with each other. In other words, today's Dongzhou River can't be the upstream source of ancient bamboo water, and it can only flow westward to Zishui (Ancient Chai Wenhe). Li Daoyuan is an oversight. As for Shandong Tongzhi, it is said that the source of our water is Guanshan, and Xiaowen River (now Dongzhou River) captured the water around the Yuan and Ming Dynasties. Where did Xiaowen River flow before it was captured? It's not self-silting, is it? So Xiaowen River has been a tributary of Zishui since ancient times, and its name may be Dayangshui. Cage: "Chiyou ... comes from amniotic fluid." If amniotic fluid is ocean water and Chiyou is within the source range of Siwen, then amniotic fluid can only be today's Chaiwen River, originating from today's Dongzhou River, and Chiyou can only be in today's xintai city. It's quite possible. If so, the land of Jizhou would be in today's xintai city.
In other words, Ying Shao recorded in Pingyang County Records and Hedong County Records: "It is also in Pingheyang." Historical Records of the Five Emperors quoted Huangfu Mi as saying: "Pingyang, the capital of Yao, is the Tang Dynasty in the Book of Songs." Ming Ji: Abolishing Buddhism and Abandoning Monks to Restore Instruments quoted from the ancient edition Chronicle: "Shun imprisoned Yao in Pingyang and took the throne." Therefore, there should be no problem in Pingyang, Du Yao. Then where is Pingyang? According to literature review, there are four ancient names of Pingyang: First, Shanxi, Zuogong twenty-eight years: "Doctor Pingyang", and the water distribution notes quoted the ancient chronology and said: "In the first year of Jin Liegong, Han Wuzi was Pingyang." Governing Linfen City today; First, Henan, "Zuo Zhuan Ai Gong Sixteen Years" said "drinking Confucius wine in Pingyang", now southeast of Hua County; In Shandong, Gong Xuan said in the Spring and Autumn Period, "The city is Pingyang." Today's Xintai Chengzhi; Twenty-seven years of mourning for Zuo Zhuan: "Confucius asked Hou Yong to hire him ... to form an alliance with Pingyang." Du Note: "West Pingyang." "Notes on Shui Jing Si Shui" quoted the ancient chronology: "In the 29th year of Hui Liang, Qi Tiangui and Song people attacked me and besieged Pingyang." Now Zoucheng is under the jurisdiction of the city.
There is no evidence that Yao is in Henan, and the possibility that Pingyang in Hua County is the capital of Yao is very small, which can basically be ruled out. Yao has a lot of evidence in Shandong, so it is possible that one of Xintai Pingyang and Zoucheng is Yao. Furthermore, Gu Zuyu commented on the situation in Tai 'an Prefecture, saying: "Mount Tai is blocked in the north, with Wenshui in the south and Qilu in the middle, which is the central place. Shandong wins, not like Mount Tai; The shape of Mount Tai is better than that of Tai 'an. This will come out in all directions and sweep the three gases. Isn't it a trend to create! "This situation of" connecting Qilu and taking it as the center "is particularly reflected in Xintai County (now the city) of Tai 'an Prefecture. According to archaeological research, Shandong Neolithic culture-Haidai Longshan culture is distributed in central and southern Shandong and its surrounding areas, and Xintai is in the center of this range. This is crucial. Although Yao may have originated in Heze today, it is located in Xintai, and it is very possible to control all directions in China. In this respect, Zoucheng, a secluded place in the southwest, is incomparable. In other words, if Yao is in Shandong, his capital Pingyang is likely to be in Xintai. Yao has more evidence in Shanxi. Although Pingyang in Linfen is Du Yao, it can't be completely affirmed or completely denied. But since Yao is more likely to be in Shandong than in Shanxi, and there are many evidences, Pingyang, the capital of Yao, is more likely to be in Xintai than in Linfen. In a word, Pingyang of Xintai is most likely Du Yao. Confucius quoted Xia Shu as saying in Zuo Zhuan's Six Years of Mourning for the Duke: "Only Tao Tang is handsome and handsome, and there is this Hebei side. If you lose your line today, you will lose your discipline and die. " It is the Yao family. It is known that it is in Jizhou, and Pingyang, the capital, is likely to be in Xintai, which means that ancient Jizhou is likely to be in Xintai City today.
Knowing this, it is easy to understand why Kyushu is very evenly distributed in the river map, and Jizhou is called the "center". It is not nonsense to send "River Map" to Kyushu. Later, according to Mencius' exposition of Zhang Wan, "Shun ... then China took the throne and lived in Yao's palace, forcing Yao's son to die." "Historical Records" and "Zen Book" only quoted the words of Shi Ben: "Summer and Yu are all Yangcheng, avoiding business. They are all Pingyang. " Therefore, Shun and Yu may both be in Pingyang, the capital city, or in xintai city today. There is a long history of Yucun Town in the west of the city, which provides another proof of this possibility. Why is this happening? Of course, it has something to do with Xintai's geographical location. Recently, the academic community reached a consensus that Qi people who were named monarch by the Zhou Dynasty once lived in Xintai for a long time. Why is this happening? I'm afraid it has something to do with my possible involvement!
By the Warring States period, due to the expansion of territory and the forgetting of ancient history, it was difficult for people to understand the "river map" that really preserved the historical truth. Therefore, they were misunderstood and rewritten according to the territory of China at that time, which led to the theory of sending Kyushu to Zhou Li. Even according to the number of original images preserved by various schools in Zhou Li (such as words with directions of due east, due north, due west, due south, southeast and northeast), we can roughly judge the time of their appearance, that is, Zhou Li may be the earliest, Lv Chunqiu the second, Gong Yu the second and Erya the last. Later, Zou Yan put forward the theory of Kyushu, saying, "Those who think that the Confucians call China are separated by eighty-one. China is called Chixian Shenzhou. Chixian shenzhou has its own Kyushu, and the order of Yu Kyushu is also not the number of States. China, such as Chixian Shenzhou, is the so-called "Kyushu". So surrounded by the sea, people and animals can't communicate, such as a region, is a state. In this way, surrounded by a sea, the world is in danger. " I'm afraid this is the result of Zou Yan's compromise when he saw two "Kyushu" theories but could not resolve their differences.
Edit paragraph 2. Jiuzhou legend
Kyushu is a fantasy world created by China people, so it has the charm of the East since its birth. Kyushu map
creation legend
In ancient times, there was only chaos in the world, and countless elementary particles drifted aimlessly in the chaotic ocean, with no direction, no boundary and no time. The cohesion and repulsion between particles make chaos move inside. When sports gradually became a trend, chaos was broken by some accidental agitation. This agitation is only the occasional orderly arrangement of those particles, and the wonderful patterns are hidden in chaos, and the orderly arrangement and combination appear for the first time. This is the first kind of weak consciousness.
This kind of consciousness is called the first city in the world. Spirit comes from the movement combination of matter, which tries to change the disorder of chaos, and the power of matter tending to chaos hinders this change. When the market tries to split chaos and create it, the power of condensing chaos comes into play, resulting in the shortage of the corresponding concept of god. Famine represents a powerful cohesive force everywhere, but it has no consciousness. Famine is the chaotic material itself.
The market did not allow famine to destroy its creation, so it condensed all the spirits into a powerful spiritual body-the first secondary god "Pangu"-struggling to hit the center of chaos, leading to an unprecedented outbreak of the whole chaos. Part of the barren body was smashed into dust, but its main body firmly grasped the surrounding body fragments with cohesion, forming a sphere called the earth. Pangu was completely shattered in the impact, and its spiritual fragments turned into countless stars that flew out of chaos in an instant, but were sandwiched around famine by cohesive forces. The spirit of the stars has also become the second batch of secondary gods with independent consciousness.
Time, from this moment on.
Introduction to geography
In the boundless ocean, there are many continents, including a civilized and prosperous area where different races live.
The ancient empire, which was founded by ancient terrans and transformed by tribal alliances, once divided the known world they explored into nine countries: Yi, Han, Ning, Lan, Yue, Wan, Lei, Yun and Zhong. Although this great country has long since disappeared, the region of Kyushu has always existed.
Because of their limited understanding of the vast land, they divided this area into Hokuriku, Hokuriku and Hokuriku according to the central point of the inland sea civilization. Surrounding the mainland is a large body of water called the vast ocean. At the same time, the vast ocean has different names in the shallow sea around the adjacent continent. There are three shallow inland seas between the land, namely Huanhai, Weihai and Chuliaohai.
In land and sea measurements, the unit of length is miles and steps, the unit of height is feet, and the unit of area is extension (100 square mile).
There are about 540,000 land in the east, 360,000 land in the north and 250,000 land in the west.
(At present, it is assumed that Kyushu has the same plum, and one extension is 100 square plum, which is equal to 25 square kilometers in reality. The total area of Kyushu does not include the underground three seas about1150,000 square kilometers, extending about 30 million square kilometers, including the underground three seas about 40 million square kilometers. )
The highest mountain range in the East China Sea is Leiyan Mountain, which is located in the south-central part of the East China Sea and runs east-west. The mainland north of Leiyan Mountain is called Zhongzhou because it is the geographical center of the civilized world. The south is called Yuezhou. The part of the mainland east of Zhongzhou is called Lanzhou, because it is the easternmost part of all continents. Leiyan Mountain comes out in the west, and Wanzhou in the east is delineated in the southwest and northwest bays, separated by the great river and the west.
The easternmost part of Hokuriku is called Ningzhou, and its name comes from various sacrifices of local tribes. To the north of Ningzhou is the Wuyang River and the towering snow-capped mountains that are difficult to fly over in Jiangbei. Only there is a narrow isthmus connected with Hanzhou in the northwest, and Hanzhou has a vast plain. To the west of Korea is Ruizhou, and between them is the highest ancient mountain range in the Hokuriku.
There is a bay called Shenshahai in the west and Yunzhou in the north, so Leizhou, south of Shenshahai, is a warm place with evergreen seasons. The two States are similar in size.
Yizhou
Yizhou is located in the west of Hokuriku, the second side is the sea, and the north is the cold continent with vast snow-capped mountains and ice fields. East and Hanzhou are bounded by fire and thunder. The area is about100000. There are three main terrain zones in Yizhou: Yizhou Plateau in the north, Mangu Mountain in the east and Tianchi Mountain in the west, among which Mangu Mountain is the highest part of the eastern land, with an average elevation of over 65,438+0,000 feet. The topography of the central and eastern regions tends to be flat, and long-term erosion has formed several broad and undulating plains, among which some hills and hills are distributed. The southwest of China is a volcanic belt, collectively referred to as glacier land and sea, with dozens of larger volcanoes and more small or dormant volcanoes. Further west, there are volcanic islands in the vast ocean.
This is a continent of ice and fire, and the corresponding climate distribution is also changeable. The climate in Yizhou Plateau is cold, with generally low temperature and abundant precipitation in summer. Whether it is winter or summer, it will rain or snow. This area is not suitable for the growth of trees, and shrubs and tundra are common vegetation in the Yizhou Plateau. Southwest China is rich in geothermal resources, and you can see Kobayashi composed of woody plants. Weedy meadows are distributed in leeward places or near hot springs. The climate in the central and eastern plain is slightly more complicated than that in Hangzhou plain, with forest vegetation as the main component, coniferous forest as the most widely distributed, and fewer broadleaf trees. There are forest grasslands and grasslands at the junction with Hanzhou.
Hanzhou
Hanzhou is located in the middle of Hokuriku, with a total area of about150,000. The southwest is surrounded by the sea, and the lower end points to the Chu-Liao Sea. Influenced by the topography of Yizhou Plateau, the west has a higher average altitude. The central region is flat, and one is Ma Pingchuan. To the east, Zhongzhou is separated by the extremely wide Tiantuo River. The western end is separated from Yunzhou by Huoling River.
There is insufficient rainfall in most parts of Hangzhou, and forests can't grow naturally, mainly grassland. The natural vegetation is mainly tufted grass mixed with many dicotyledonous weeds. Tongyun Mountain area in the east gradually transited from forest grassland to mixed forest area. MengMeng Sea, located on the grassland in the middle of Hanzhou, is the largest lake on the northern land, and a large area of fertile land in Lvzhou is formed around it.
Ningzhou
Ningzhou is located in the easternmost part of Hokuriku, surrounded by the sea on three sides, with an area of about 1 1 10,000 hectares. Its southeast is hilly, with forests and forest grasslands. Wugui Mountain runs across its north. Since then, the Samui River has flowed southward into the sea, becoming three wide rivers criss-crossing. Because of the difference between soil and algae, it has three colors: turquoise, lavender and crimson. Most of the western part of Ningzhou is desert Gobi, and many broken hills reach Tiger Skin Mountain. The westernmost point is separated from Hangzhou by Lycium Mountain, which is higher than Wan Ren. Because the peak is covered with snow all year round, it is also called "Moon Mountain", and its main peak is the highest mountain in the Hokuriku. Most of the northern part of Ningzhou is covered with thick glacier layer. This huge ice sheet is almost equivalent to a quarter of Ningzhou. In the short summer, the main vegetation is covered with moss and herbs.
Lanzhou
Lanzhou is located in the east of the East China Sea, bordering the sea in the east, Zhongzhou in the west and Yuezhou in the south. The area is about150,000 extension. The overall situation in Lanzhou is like a bow, the Golden River is like a string across the north and south, and Liang Qing, the highest peak in the East, is on the ridge of the bow. The average altitude of Lanzhou is over 3000 feet, which is the highest in the east. The central lowland of the graben divides Lanzhou into northeast and southwest parts. The Ye Bei Plateau in the northeast is a horst, and the border between the southwest and Yuezhou is a large swamp and forest due to heavy rainfall.
The whole northern plateau is cool and thin, and the climate is unfavorable. Winter lasts five months a year. Except for coniferous forests in cold areas, it is very unfavorable for the growth of crops. The important grain producing areas are only in a small part of the southwest. Marsh and forest belts are sparsely populated, with dense trees and crowns, many layers and many vines and epiphytes.
Central China
Zhongzhou is located in the north block of the east foot, with Wanzhou in the south and Lanzhou in the east. With an area of about150,000 tons, it is the largest state in the east. The topography of Zhongzhou is dominated by mountains and plains, and there are two east-west uplift zones and two subsidence zones extending from Lanzhou Ye Bei Plateau. The uplift zone is mainly mountainous, while the subsidence zone forms basins and plains.
The wind direction and precipitation in Zhongzhou change obviously with the seasons. Natural vegetation is dominated by forests, including cold and wet forests and forest grasslands, semi-humid and semi-arid summer green forests and forest grasslands, and mixed with deciduous broad-leaved forests.
Wanzhou
Wanzhou is located in the west block of the east land, with Zhongzhou in the north and Yuezhou in the east. Area120,000 or so. The topography of Wanzhou is cut by Jianshui, Xijiang and many small rivers, most of which are hills, and only the plain connected with Zhongzhou is the flat part of Wanzhou. The eastern part of Wanzhou is influenced by Leiyan Mountain and Beimang Mountain, and the terrain is complex. Guihu geese are the birthplace of most rivers in Wanzhou.
Wanzhou has a mild climate, not too cold in winter, not too hot in summer and moderate precipitation. There is no feeling of drought in most areas. This climatic condition is suitable for the growth of woody plants, and broad-leaved forest is a zonal vegetation in this area.
Yuezhou
Yuezhou is located in the south of Donglu, with an area of about120,000, ranking the third among the four states in Donglu. The central and western parts of Yuezhou are dominated by hills and low mountains. Many extended mountains in Yan Lei and Beijiang Mountains are continuous ridges, mainly massive mountains, with towering peaks, steep slopes and exposed rocks. The terrain is very rugged, with small valleys and basins interlaced between mountains. The basin is rich in water resources, with coastal plains in the east and north, more coastal sandbars and lagoons, and coral reef coast in the southeast.
The basic vegetation in Yuezhou is evergreen hardwood community, which is not only distributed in coastal and plain areas, but also goes deep into mountainous areas along river valleys. As Yuezhou is the most sparsely populated area, the national forest coverage rate reaches 60% to 70%.
Yunzhou
The area is about120,000 linear meters, and the middle is bounded by leizhou bay, which is called Shenshahai. Because Yunzhou is a towering red mountain range in the west and hills in the east, the terrain is high and the sky is high and the clouds are light, so there is a contiguous desert in the middle, interlaced with valleys.
Leizhou
Area130,000 or so. Different from Yunzhou, the climate here is harmonious, the plants are lush and diverse, the two sides are close to the sea, the climate is rainy and humid, and the forest is dense.
Introduction to astronomy
The vast world of Kyushu is a sphere, but this sphere is somewhat unusual, because no one can prove that people can go all the way west to the east, and the earth is almost infinitely stretched. If you don't look back, you will never return to the starting point. The road ahead is always long. Kyushu is almost infinite to the creatures on it.
When people on Kyushu look up at the sky, during the day, they will see the sun, but not only the sun, but also the other two moons and nine main stars except Gu Xuan will appear and disappear according to different forces at that time, regardless of day and night. The stars shine with unique colors. Due to the influence of different main stars, the sky in Kyushu is not always blue or white. When people see the illuminated sky and the bright and dark halo shape of the main star, they will know what changes the star power may bring to this land, maybe it is rainy season, maybe it is storm, or it may be an era of mild climate and stable reproduction.
At night, when Gu Xuan dominates the sky, the light of the nebula is absorbed and weakened. Except that the main star still has a huge graceful halo, other nebulae (stars, rings and clusters) are like diamonds scattered randomly on black cloth. Nebulae are fluids that are constantly attracted by other nebulae and repelled by the main star. They are like clouds in the wind, constantly changing their shapes and gathering and dispersing. Sometimes it can be changed beyond recognition overnight, and sometimes it will remain unchanged for thousands of years. Just like daylight, the night in Kyushu is not pure black. Not only the colors of the stars are different, but also the halos are different. The main star also reflects the dim primary colors into the night with mutual power.
