History of Peacock River
According to Vae's "Western Waterway", "This river is more than 30 miles to the west, and it is a mountain. The water flowed south for more than twenty miles, passing between Korla and Juntai. Further southwest, every 70 miles, through the Tainan Halabrak Army. He walked more than 20 miles to the west, passing through Tainan and Kulchu Army in the west. It is still called Haidu River every three hundred miles. " During the Republic of China, it was generally called Korla River. 1in August, 948, the Korla county government submitted the Korla river questionnaire to the Nanjing municipal government: river name: Korla river. River length: 145 Li. Origin and passing area: It rises in Kaidu River, passes through tiemenguan and ends in Peacock River. (Korla City Archives, Korla County Government, Volume 1948, Volume 40) This section was renamed Peacock River after liberation. From Guangxu to now, the Yuli section has been called Peacock River. Yuli County was called Xinping County in Qing Dynasty, and the map of Xinping County Records has set up a post station in Peacock River. Today's Yuli, formerly known as Kunqi in Uygur, is called Kunqi River from the place name, which means cobbler river, because cobblers often wash leather in the river. Xiang scholars who rebelled with Zuo translated Kunqi River into Peacock River. Korla, which had a land dispute with Yuli County from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, would not name the river flowing through this area Peacock River. 1960 On May 6, the Notice of the General Office of the People's Committee of the Autonomous Region on the Change of Uygur Place Names in Yuli County pointed out: "On April 22, the State Council officially approved the change of Uygur Place Names in Yuli County from Peacock to Robnor."
