The eighty-first day of Jiangyin refers to the struggle of Jiangyin people against the haircut order under the leadership of Jiangyin Dianshi and others in the summer of 1645. Because it lasted 8 1 day, it was called "Jiangyin 8 1 day". The heroic deeds of Jiangyin intellectuals, represented by Jiangyin's resistance to the Qing Dynasty, left a dazzling page in the history of China's anti-aggression. The Qing army lost three generals and eighteen generals; Also involved in the siege were Marco Polo (Prince of Qing Dynasty), Ni Kan (Prince of Qing Dynasty) and Kong Youde, King of Qing Dynasty. The Qing army had 240,000 people and besieged the city with more than 200 cannons, resulting in a total loss of more than 75,000 people. Jiangyin, guarding the city for 8 1 day, killed more than 97,000 people in the city and killed more than 75,000 people outside the city. Zhao Yi, a famous poet and historian, wrote that "talented people come forth in large numbers, each leading the way for hundreds of years". He is a harsh and arrogant person, but he has to respect Yan Yingyuan's portrait. He put Yan Yingyuan in the background of that era, and compared with many loyal ministers, righteous men and traitors in the late Ming Dynasty, he sent out the feeling that "every man has a brave husband". A one-sided war originally lasted 8 1 day, and the isolated city was trapped. 65,438+10,000 ordinary citizens face 240,000 soldiers and outstanding generals. After day and night siege, shelling and strong crossbows, the Qing Dynasty lost three kings and eighteen generals and more than 75,000 people. This can be regarded as a miracle in the history of Chinese and foreign wars. Almost all the tricks that can be used in the 36-year plan are used: fake surrender, camp stealing, fire attack, nailing holes, scarecrow borrowing arrows, playing tricks, attacking by small groups, and climbing Chu songs ..... all of them are doing their best and shining with creative light. The most heroic thing is to send the white-haired old man out of the city to surrender and hide the gunpowder at the bottom of the silver bucket. When the Qing army surrendered, flames burst and killed more than 3,000 people, including a prince and two generals. The Qing army mourned for the three armies. At the same time, the sound of mournful gunfire rang out from the head of Jiangyin City, which was a mourning for the villagers who generously sacrificed. ...

Jiangyin won the name of "Yicheng" after the Qing Dynasty. The people of Jiangyin built the "Tadakuni Peak" to commemorate the victims of Baobang. After the war, in order to appease Jiangyin people, the Manchu rulers adopted the appeasement policy. After Yiyou guarding the city 13 1 year, Gan Long gave Yan Yingyuan, Chen Mingyu and Feng backing "loyalty", "passion" and "restraint" respectively.

192 after Yan Yingyuan's martyrdom, the Qing court, in order to appease the people of Jiangyin, ordered the construction of a temple in Jiangyin and his hometown Tongzhou, both of which were named "Gong Yan Temple".

During Jiaqing period, Jiangsu Zheng Xue was an important official who managed the imperial examinations and academic affairs in Jiangsu during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The familiar prime ministers Liu, Liu Yong and the founder of Nanjing Academy have all held positions in Jiangsu. Since the forty-second year of Wanli, Jiangyin has opened the "Jiangsu Academic Affairs Office", which mainly accepts candidates from 8 provinces and 3 states. At that time, there were only three offices in China: Taipingfu in Anhui, Sanyuan County in Shaanxi and Jiangyin County in Jiangsu. Yao Wentian, the minister of the Ministry of Rites, inscribed the plaque "The State of Loyalty and Righteousness", hung the city gate high, and increased the examination position in Jiangyin.

In the twenty-second year of Daoguang, Jin Xian, a magistrate of a county, carved these four characters into brick plaques and built them on the gate of the south gate for a brighter future. After that, for more than 100 years, passers-by of all ages were all proud of their ancestors' heroic behavior when they looked up. "People are United and strong" has represented the personality characteristics of Jiangyin people for a long time.

During War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the imperialists were most afraid of the loyalty of the people of China. During the Defence War of Jiangyin, the Japanese invaders invaded Jiangyin on 1937, and the towers were attacked by gunfire, and the tiles and plaques were broken, leaving only the word "Tadakuni" (existing in Jiangyin Tadakuni Pavilion) to be picked up and hidden.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, a surname served as a county magistrate. In order to erect this monument again, he ran around all day and made a monument to a country of loyalty and righteousness. On the inscription, the words "Rebuilding the county magistrate's side, Fudan University Bachelor of Arts in the book" were added, and one day they were put on the city gate. Unexpectedly, this angered the secretary of the county party Committee (equivalent to the modern secretary of the county party Committee). He specially ran to Nanjing and asked Chairman Jiang to write a calligraphy and sign it "Zhongzhengshu", which was vigorous and dignified. So the Chiang Kai-shek Monument replaced the original Fangxian Monument and hung high in the city. The original fragment of the word "Tadakuni" was kept in Zhongshan Park for safekeeping. Yan Yingyuan, whose real name is Henry, was born in Tongzhou, Zhili (now Tongxian, Beijing) and is a national hero. In the third year of Chongzhen Xinsi, he went to Jiangyin to study the history. At the beginning of taking office, Haikou Valley led hundreds of warships to invade Huangtian Port, but Ying Yuan led the troops and refused to defend, sending three arrows in succession, all of which were defeated. Haikou was too scared to do it again. During his tenure, he made outstanding achievements in quelling salt thieves and civil unrest. Jiangyin people appreciated his kindness and painted his portrait as a souvenir of social research. Nanming court wants to transfer him to Yingde County, Shaozhou, Guangdong Province. Because my mother was seriously ill and the road was impassable, the whole family was scattered at the foot of the sand mountain outside Jiangyin.

During his tenure as Jiangyin Canon History (equivalent to the first-class public security bureau chief in Zheng Ke), he led 60,000 righteous men, faced with 240,000 Qing troops, and was trapped in the lonely city for 8 1 day, resulting in the Qing army losing three kings and eighteen generals and killing 75,000 people. On the day of breaking the city, none of the righteous surrendered, only 53 people, old and young, survived. After being captured, Yan Yingyuan resolutely refused to kneel down to Baylor of the Qing court, and was stabbed in the tibia, "blood boiling and falling down", but he never bent his knees and died heroically.

Before martyrdom, Yan Yingyuan sat on the watchtower in Dongcheng, asked for a pen and wrote on the door:

"Eighty days with loyalty, table Mao 17 dynasty characters; One hundred thousand people died with one heart, leaving Daming three hundred miles. " Feng Houdun (? -1645), Feng Houdun, a native of Jintan, a national hero. At the end of Chongzhen, he served as the consul of Jiangyin. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Jiangyin Rebels, led by Yan Yingyuan, Chen Mingyu and Feng Houdun, killed Fang Heng, and kept 240,000 Qing troops out of the city gate, fighting for 8 1 day. Later, after the Qing army shelled the city gate with more than 200 fires, it hanged itself in the crown belt south of Mingluntang. His wife Wang married his widowed sister and drowned.
