Who can help me understand the origin of Jiangsu and Zhejiang?
Jiangsu: Named after Jiangning and Suzhou. Jiangnan East Road and Huainan Road under the Tang Dynasty; Songjia Jiangnan East Road, Zhejiang West Road and Huainan East Road; Yuan belongs to Jiangdong Jiankang Road, Jiangnan Zhexi Road and Huaidongjiang North Road; In the Ming dynasty, governments at all levels and Zhili Prefecture were directly under the central government, which was called Zhili, and later changed to Nanzhili; In the Qing Dynasty, jiangnan province was restructured, and then Jiangsu Province was established separately, which was the beginning of the name of Jiangsu. Or during the Republic of China; At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Subei Administrative Office and Sunan Administrative Office were established respectively, and then merged to restore Jiangsu Province. The name of the province has not changed so far.

Zhejiang: It is named after Zhejiang (also known as Qiantang River). Tang belongs to the eastern part of Jiangnan, with one observer in eastern Zhejiang and one observer in western Zhejiang. Two Zhejiang roads were located in the Song Dynasty, and the Southern Song Dynasty was divided into two East Zhejiang roads and two West Zhejiang roads, which were called East Zhejiang Road and West Zhejiang Road for short. Yuan set up the right road of East Zhejiang Sea Road and West Zhejiang Road; Ming set up Zhejiang province, which was the beginning of Zhejiang's name, and later changed to Zhejiang Ministry of Foreign Affairs; The name of Zhejiang Province has not changed since the Qing Dynasty.

Hangzhou has a long history, which has been more than 2,200 years since the county was established in Qin Dynasty. Hangzhou is one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization. As early as more than 4,700 years ago, human beings thrived here and produced Liangzhu culture called the dawn of civilization.

Zhejiang is one of the cradles of ancient civilization in China, and is known as "the country of cultural relics". It has a long history and profound accumulation. Archaeological data show that as early as 50 thousand years ago, the primitive human "Jiande people" were active in today's mountainous areas in western Zhejiang. From 6700 to 4500 years ago, the scope of human activities in Zhejiang entered the prosperous period of feudal economy after the tenth century A.D. ..

Zhejiang has the reputation of "land of plenty" and "home of silk", as well as "hometown of culture" and "hometown of tourism". It has a long history, developed economy, convenient transportation and prosperous culture. Since the Eastern Jin and Southern Dynasties, it has come from behind and has been far ahead for thousands of years. It is reasonable to make persistent efforts to reach a new level in the modernization race of 2 1 century. According to the regional characteristics of Zhejiang's history and culture, the author preliminarily lists the reasonable factors in the heritage:

Encouraged by precious spiritual wealth: a long and glorious history has left a strong mark on the history of the Chinese nation. Starting from the ancient Jiande people, the primitive cultures of Hemudu, Majiabang and Liangzhu opened a chapter of civilization. According to legend, the descendants of Shun were sealed in Shangyu and Yuyao, and Dayu was the center of Baiyue culture in the pre-Qin period. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Yue, Sun Wu and Ten Kingdoms all started in Zhejiang, and Lin 'an was once the political and cultural center of the Southern Song Dynasty. Dayu, the hero of water control, is brave and wise. He forgot to subdue the fierce flood for the benefit of the Lebanese people. "Going home without going in" is a beautiful talk of several generations; Bai Juyi, Su Shi and Wang Anshi worked hard for the people of Zhejiang and were descendants. Harry is upright in Chun 'an. He dares to offend powerful people, and is called "the blue sky". Hangzhou was fortunate enough to bury the loyalty of Yue Fei and his son who were loyal to the country; Lu You never forgets to recover lost ground, and "modesty is not afraid of forgetting the country" has inspired countless people with lofty ideals. Yu Qian, a famous minister, realized the swan song of Ode to Lyme with his own actions. Gou Jian, the King of Yue, "lived together for ten years and learned from the scriptures for ten years" and finally got revenge. Sun Jian and his son are a generation of lean men who have made great achievements in Jiangdong. Qi Jiguang, a famous anti-Japanese soldier, recruited and trained "Qijiajun" in Zhejiang, and won nine battles in Taizhou, putting down the Japanese invasion. In modern Zhejiang, the struggle against feudalism and aggression was wave after wave, and the "three generals in Dinghai" who died heroically in the Opium War was brilliant for a while. The officers and men of Zhaobaoshan fort in Zhenhai beat the French invaders; Taiping Army galloped Zhejiang and swept Clear The Demon; Qiu Jin, the "Jianhu Girl", is a heroic woman with high aspirations. The great achievements of the sons and daughters of Zhejiang are endless, which will always inspire us to be self-respecting, self-confident, patriotic and self-reliant, and gain strong spiritual strength from them.

Second, profound ideological cultivation: Zhejiang ancestors gradually built a backward, poor and barren land into a leading province in the country, which not only removed the label of "Na Man", but also maintained its forefront position for more than a thousand years. Rich culture reflects brilliant ideological light, and I think its essence mainly includes: (1) innovative spirit. "Innovation is the soul of a nation", wuyue's regional culture with distinctive features was formed in the pre-Qin period, and later it became unique academically, and the "East Zhejiang School" lasted for a long time. First of all, or find another way in the genre of the article, such as Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, Huang Zongxi's Confucianism in Ming Dynasty, Lu Xun's essays, Cai's Romance of Twenty-four Histories and other famous articles; Secondly, the innovation in ideological system or literary genre has reached a peak. Philosophy, history, painting, drama and other genres have far-reaching influence, and few people follow suit. Therefore, they stick to the rules and local operas are blooming, including artistic wonders such as Yue Opera and Wu Opera. In the spirit of emancipating the mind, Zhejiang ancestors always opened up the atmosphere with an open mind and were less bound by habitual inertia, which was related to the adjacent marine environment. Mr. Liang Qichao has an incisive opinion: "People who live on the sea can inspire people's enterprising spirit ... they can inspire their spirit to be brave and noble." This ancient people who lived by the sea were more energetic and enterprising than those who lived on land. " For example, in philosophy, Wang Chong in the Eastern Han Dynasty boldly criticized orthodox Dong Zhongshu's fallacy of "the connection between man and nature"; Chen Liang and Ye Shi in the Southern Song Dynasty created a "school of achievement" which was directly opposed to Zhu Cheng's Neo-Confucianism. Zhejiang is the cradle of critical philosophy and enlightenment thought in the late Middle Ages. It always follows the pulse of the times, inherits the subject and realistic spirit of the sages from Wang Yangming's theory of mind, appeals to conscience, pays attention to practice, rushes out of the quagmire of suppressing human nature and binding thoughts, and pushes people to break through the barriers of Confucian classics and Neo-Confucianism. Then it induced the sudden emergence of enlightenment thoughts in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties; The East Zhejiang School, headed by Huang Zongxi and Zhang Xuecheng, inherited Wang Xue's idle thoughts, innovated scholars' habits and enlivened the academic circles to some extent. Gong Zizhen shouted "Thunder in Kyushu" in the silence, which opened the prelude to modernization. Later, influenced by the "democracy" and "science" spirit of Westernization, reform, democracy and the New Culture Movement and Marxism, Zhang Taiyan and Lu Xun became the driving forces for the advancement of history and culture. During the Southern Song Dynasty, Lu You, Li Qingzhao and Chen Liang dominated the mainstream with their bold ci style, expressing their hatred of national subjugation and eager to recover the mountains and rivers. In the field of literature and art in the last years of feudalism, there was an obvious tendency of secularization and liberalization. The liberation of human nature dominates the mainstream of creation, and Li Yu and Hong Sheng are household names in China. There are Lu Xun, Zhu Ziqing, Qian, Chen Wangdao, Xu Zhimo, Zhang Xiu and others in the new literature army during the May 4th Movement. ⑶ Spirit of openness and integration: Due to the war in the north, the south is relatively stable and the natural environment is beautiful. A large number of northerners moved south, including a considerable number of intellectuals, such as Wang Xizhi and Xie Lingyun, which greatly changed the social and cultural structure of Zhejiang. From the exile of "guilty officials and people" in Qin and Han Dynasties, through the development of Eastern Jin and Southern Dynasties, to the opening of the Grand Canal in Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Song Dynasty reached unprecedented prosperity and has remained so far. What's more, because of business and official career, they have traveled all over the country. In ancient times, there was a saying that "no salt can make an official" and "no peace can make a city". "Shaoxing Masters" and "Ningbo Gang" are world-famous, with smooth information and frequent cultural exchanges. Our province not only accommodates the essence of Central Plains culture, but also seizes the opportunity of western learning spreading to the east. Chinese and western cultures collided fiercely here, and missionaries brought western science and technology. Zhejiang scholars have shown great enthusiasm for this, such as Li Zhizao, Yang and Li. They have learned from China and the West and started the cultural exchange between the East and the West. After the Tang and Song Dynasties, a large number of overseas Chinese went to sea to make a living, and the number was in the forefront, especially in modern times, there were many upsurge of studying abroad, and brilliant scientific stars emerged. Obviously, the spirit of takenism contained in Zhejiang culture is extremely valuable. For example, although Wang Chong criticized Dong, he still affirmed that "the words of virtue and politics are valuable and beautiful" and wrote Asking Confucius, Awaiting Mencius and Preface to Taoism without excluding Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism. Although Wang Yangming is a Confucian, he has absorbed nutrients from Buddhism and Taoism. It is no wonder that Mr. Cai Yuanpei advocated the educational proposition of "freedom of thought and inclusiveness" for the first time. It is precisely because there are hundreds of rivers, learning from others and gathering talents and celebrities. By renewing themselves and constantly inputting fresh blood, they always glow with infinite vitality and vigor. (4) the spirit of seeking truth from facts. Many thinkers in our province emphasize seeking truth from facts in theory and pay attention to practical results in action. They advocate that academic research must focus on practical reasons and seek practical results, and verify its right and wrong in practice, and oppose empty talk divorced from reality. For example, Wang Chong put forward some propositions in Lun Heng, such as "knowing reason", "knowing reason" and "what has been proved to be effective". Chen Liang and Ye Shi's "double line of righteousness and benefit" and "righteousness and benefit" advocate: Lv Zuqian has the idea of "cultivating solid materials and seeking use"; Wang Yangming's "Unity of Knowledge and Action"; Huang Zongxi's Dealing with the World, etc. Zhang Xuecheng's view is that "historiography is pragmatic, solid and true". Zhejiang ancestors paid attention to culture to serve the national economy and people's livelihood, and used convenient transportation conditions and rich products to engage in commercial activities for a long time. Fan Li, Minister of the State of Yue, abandoned his official position and went to sea. He was well managed and rich in the world. In the Tang Dynasty, great businessmen Li, Li Yanchi and Zhang Zhixin traveled between Japan and Yongwen. Influenced by the prosperity of commodity economy in eastern Zhejiang, Yongjia School and Yongkang School pay attention to utilitarianism in an unconventional way, thinking that "there is no utilitarianism and morality is useless"; Huang Zongxi further broke through the deep-rooted traditional concept of "emphasizing agriculture and restraining commerce" and advocated that "industry and commerce are the foundation", which reflected the emergence of capitalism in the south of the Yangtze River and showed everywhere that most Zhejiang people have the characteristics of flexible and smart minds, long thinking, good management and resourcefulness.

The three schools emphasize education and cultivate the folk customs of farming and reading: ancient private schools and academies are scattered all over the place, and there were 167 academies in Song Dynasty, and local schools abound; There were 496 in Qing dynasty; Modern new learning takes the lead in opening up the atmosphere. Qiushi Academy (the predecessor of Zhejiang University) was founded by Liao Shoufeng in 1897. Chunhui middle school, founded by Mr. Jing Hengyi, is as famous as Nankai, with many famous teachers. Before liberation, Zhejiang University was presided over by Ma Yinchu, Su, Zhu Kezhen, Qian Sanqiang and Tan. , and won the title of "Cambridge Second"; West Cold Printing Society attracts famous teachers and has considerable teachers. At the same time, Gou Jian's spirit of paying for life and tasting courage inspires future generations to study hard. The people expect Jackie Chan to become a common practice and advocate knowledge understanding, and the whole family bears the burden of humiliation. Students are also happy to learn, forming a strong atmosphere of "learning, respecting teachers and choosing friends, memorizing strings and listening more than others". Therefore, it is unprecedented for Shaoxing people to seek fame by studying, in order to produce a large group of resourceful teachers. Dongyang is known as "the hometown of professors" and "the county of doctors". Jinhua is nicknamed "Little Zou Lu". Moreover, people from all walks of life have generously donated money, and it has become a common practice to raise funds to run schools. Bao Yugang, Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run It is also worth mentioning that the collection of books in Zhejiang is a must. The establishment of the library is more important than the storage of gold, silver and jewels. From Jin Dynasty to Qing Dynasty, there were about 400 book collectors, including Tianyi Pavilion, Wenyuan Pavilion and Jiayetang. People believe that there is a golden house in the book. Therefore, under the influence of excellent cultural atmosphere, Zhejiang has a national leading talent pool, and the biographies of the Southern Song Dynasty account for 1.2‰ of the whole country. Ming dynasty accounted for14 ‰; In Qing Dynasty, it accounted for 1.9‰, and Hangzhou and Shaoxing were the top scholars. Liang Qichao and Mr. Ding Wenjiang made a detailed textual research on this.

Advantages of humanistic tourism resources: first, cultural relics occupy an important position in the country, and Hangzhou, Shaoxing and Ningbo are among the first batch of historical cities in the country; Six national key protected cultural relics. Secondly, there are countless places of interest such as Pagoda of Six Harmonies, Lanting and Yuling, as well as famous Buddhist temples such as Lingyin Temple, National Assembly Temple, Tiantong Temple and Asoka Temple. There are also Hemudu, Liangzhu and Majiabang ancient human sites. Thirdly, landscape architecture occupies a place. Hangzhou is one of the seven ancient capitals, and there are still Song Cheng's legacy. Dongyang Luzhai, Lanxi Zhuge Bagua Village and Wuyi Yuyuan Taiji Village are living specimens for studying ancient culture. Thirdly, the arts and crafts major is well-known. On the one hand, silk, tea, porcelain and traditional Chinese medicine are well-made, such as Shaoxing rice wine and Jinhua ham, which have been royal tributes since ancient times and have also become traditional export products; On the other hand, Hangzhou Brocade, Ningbo Embroidery, Dongyang Woodcarving, Yongkang Hardware; Qingtian stone carving and Pujiang paper-cutting are well deserved, and skilled craftsmen emerge one after another. In addition, Zhejiang people have cultivated many agricultural and sideline products, such as Longjing tea, Jinhua bergamot, jasmine, camellia and so on. Huangyan citrus, Pan 'an mushroom, Zhejiang Beihu sheep, etc. Finally, with superb cooking skills, unique flavor and harmonious five flavors, it has become one of the eight major cuisines in China. Hangzhou cuisine, Ningbo cuisine and Shaoxing cuisine have their own strengths. Shen Kuo, Li Yu and Yuan Mei have all discussed the art of cooking, and Su Dongpo deserves to be called a gourmet. Dongpo Meat is famous all over the world. The buildings outside Hangzhou make people linger, and the food culture is very knowledgeable. There is an urgent need to clean up and protect this unique resource and revitalize the ancient treasure.

5. Synchronization of the harmonious development of humanities and science: As long as we make a rough statistics on the talent classification in Zhejiang, it can be clearly seen that it is not only outstanding and colorful, but also rare in quantity, category and achievement. The author only takes the Song Dynasty as an example, including philosophers "Mr. Li Qingsi in Siming" and "Mr. Yuan Feng Jiu in Yongjia". Jinhua, Yongjia, Yongkang School, etc. Zhou Bangyan, a literary poet, and Lu You, a poet. Historians include Wang Yingphosphine and painters include Liu Songnian, Xia Gui and Song Li. , scientist Shen Kuo, inventor Bi Sheng, mathematician Yang Hui, etc. You can also take the early Qing Dynasty as an example. Thinkers include Huang Zongxi, Zhu Zhiyu and Gong Zizhen, poets Zhu Yizun and Yuan Mei, dramatists Li Yu and Hong Sheng, historians, Quan He Zhang Xuecheng, inventors Dai Zi, architects Yu Hao and water conservancy experts. Therefore, since modern times, no matter social science or natural science, talents have come forth in large numbers, ranking first in the country. Only when science and humanities fly with me can we ensure the prosperity of Zhejiang's social economy and culture.

Jin, a Hong Kong scholar, has an incisive opinion in Modernization and Intellectuals in China: "China's modernization is not to destroy tradition passively, but to actively explore how to make tradition a starter to realize the goal of contemporary China, that is, how to make tradition play a positive role." Zhejiang's culture is comprehensive, splendid and enduring, and shine on you is better than blue. In order to meet the challenge of rejuvenating the country through science and education, we have the ambition and ability to keep forging ahead, sort out, discard the useless and choose the traditional history and culture, create more glory in this land that has nurtured countless pillars and elites, and make greater contributions to the modernization of the motherland.

Jiangsu, named after the initials of jiangning house and Suzhou in Qing Dynasty, is called "Su" for short. It is one of the earliest developed areas in China.

Jiangsu belonged to Wu, Song and other countries in the Spring and Autumn Period, and Chu, Yue and Qi in the Warring States Period. After Qin Shihuang unified China, it belonged to Jiujiang, Huiji and other counties. During the Western Han Dynasty, it belonged to Xuzhou County and Yangzhou County. During the Three Kingdoms, southern Jiangsu belonged to Wu and northern Jiangsu belonged to Wei. The Tang Dynasty was divided into Henan Road, Huainan Road and Jiangnan Road. Song Dynasty is a part of Jiangnan East Road. In the Yuan Dynasty, northern Jiangsu belonged to Henan province, while southern Jiangsu belonged to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. In the Ming Dynasty, Tianfu and Zhili Nanjing were established. The early Qing Dynasty was a part of jiangnan province. In the sixth year of Kangxi (1667), jiangnan province was divided into Jiangsu and Anhui provinces, and Jiangsu province governed Huai 'an, Yangzhou, Xuzhou, jiangning house, Suzhou, Changzhou, Zhenjiang and Songjiang, with the same scope as now. The provincial system continued until after the Republic of China. During the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the New Fourth Army under the leadership of China's * * * Production Party established an anti-Japanese democratic government in northern Jiangsu, and initiated and led the people to carry out the great War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. 1949 On April 23rd, China People's Liberation Army crossed the river and Nanjing was liberated. On June 2, the whole territory of Jiangsu was liberated, with two administrative offices in southern Jiangsu and northern Jiangsu and the Nanjing Municipal People's Government. 1953 1 month, two departments and one city merged to form Jiangsu people.

Jiangsu, like the ancient Yellow River Basin, is also one of the cradles of the birth of the Chinese nation. Since ancient times, human beings have worked, lived and multiplied in this land of Jiangsu. Archaeological findings show that four or five hundred thousand years ago, Dantu "high-funded apes" lived in Jiangsu; 40,000 to/kloc-0,000 years ago, ancient residents such as Xiacaowan people, Dantu people, Lishui people and Yixing people in Sihong traveled all over the country. Six or seven thousand years ago, there were many primitive clans and tribes in the vast area from the north to the Huaihe River Basin and the south to Taihu Lake. From the carbonized millet found in Qingliangang cultural site in Huai 'an, the ribbed pueraria lobata wiring sheet and "polar column" architectural remains woven by carbonized indica rice, japonica rice, rice and wild pueraria lobata fiber found by Caoxieshan cultural leap in Wuxian, and a large number of prehistoric jade articles unearthed in Qiandun cultural site in Kunshan and Zhanglingshan cultural site in Wuxian, we can see that the culture created by ancient humans in Jiangsu was at the forefront of other regions at that time.

Jiangsu is one of the economically developed regions. During the Spring and Autumn Period, the smelting and forging of Wu Heqing bronzes were well known. The prince of Wu, Yecheng, Fu Cha, cast a sword in the Chaotian Palace in Nanjing today. In the Western Han Dynasty, Niu Geng had begun to move in northern Jiangsu. After the Three Kingdoms, Nanjing, as the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, built Wu, Eastern Jin, Song, Zhang, Liang and Chen successively and became the economic and cultural center of the South. After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the national economic center of gravity gradually moved to the south, "the major events in the world are in the southeast" and "the endowment is mostly in Jianghuai". With the excavation of the Grand Canal, the construction of Huaibei Salt Field and the prosperity of Yangzhou City, it has become a wealth center, a water transportation center and a salt and iron transshipment center in the southeast region. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, Jiangsu's economy was in full swing.

Country is very important. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Huang Daopo, a working woman in Songjiang Prefecture, learned the techniques of planting kapok and spinning and weaving from Hainan Island, which were widely spread in Suzhou and Songjiang, and promoted the prosperity and development of handicraft economy in southern Jiangsu.

After the middle of Ming Dynasty, Suzhou, Songjiang, Nanjing and other places were one of the places where Chinese capitalism sprouted. In these areas, a new class relationship of "machine users contribute, machine workers contribute" has emerged. At that time, Suzhou was the center of silk weaving, cotton textile, dyeing house and trampling house. After the Opium War, the foreign trade center moved from Guangzhou to Shanghai, which stimulated the emergence and development of capitalist industries in the Yangtze River Delta. /kloc-At the end of the 9th century, modern industries such as silk reeling, textile, flour and coal mining were established in Wuxi.

Land in Nantong, Suzhou, Xuzhou and other places rose.

In line with economic prosperity, Jiangsu is also one of the provinces with developed culture, enjoying the reputation of "gathering humanities" in history. In this land of Jiangsu, outstanding scientists, technologists and inventors such as Hua Tuo, Ge Hong, Tao Hongjing, Zu Chongzhi, Shen Kuo, Huang Daopo, Xu Guangqi and Wu Xizhan have been born. Gu Kaizhi, Mi Fei, Mi Youren, Ni Zan, Tang Yin, Zhu Yunming and other famous painters and painters appeared. The Eight Eccentrics of Yangzhou, represented by Zheng Banqiao, and Jinling, represented by Gong Xian, entered the family. Mei Cheng, the author of Seven Hairs, Chen Lin, one of the seven sons of Jian 'an, Xiao Tong, editor-in-chief of Selected Works of Zhaoming, Fan Chengda, the great poet of Southern Song Dynasty, Shi Naian, the author of Water Margin and The Journey to the West.

Wu Cheng'en, the author of Ji, and Feng Menglong, the editor of Sanyan, all of these great writers helped Jiangsu. Famous geographers Gu Zuyu and Xu Xiake are from Wuxi and Jiangyin respectively. There are also famous historians Liu Zhiji and Zhao Yi, and famous experts in sound training such as Wang Niansun, Wang and Qian Daxin. Gu, a native of Kunshan, is a patriotic scholar and has written a lot. Deng Tingzhen, a native of Nanjing, once served as governor of Guangdong and Guangxi with Lin Zexu, rectifying coastal defense, banning opium and cracking down on foreign invasion. Guan Tianpei, a national, supported Lin Zexu to ban smoking when he was the governor of Guangdong Navy, and suffered heavy losses in the Sichuan Blue Sea War.

The British army invaded the army slightly, and fought bloody battles with the British army in the Battle of Humen until they died for their country.

In modern history, famous mathematician Hua, physicist Zhou Peiyuan, bridge expert Mao Yisheng, essayist Zhu Ziqing, poet Liu Yazi and famous painter Xu Beihong are all outstanding figures in Jiangsu history.

Jiangsu is one of the regions with rich revolutionary traditions in Yu Guangrong. Here, countless people with lofty ideals, national heroes, revolutionary martyrs and progressive thinkers have written immortal poems of the Chinese nation. In modern history, the proletarian revolutionary Zhou Enlai appeared; Zhang, Qu Qiubai and Yun were the early leaders of the cause of China. Nanjing is the seat of the Provisional Political Council of the Revolution of 1911, where Sun Yat-sen was sworn in as interim president. During the period of Kuomintang rule, China producers and a large number of revolutionaries fought an expected and extraordinary struggle on the land of Jiangsu, and their blood was spilled under the Yuhuatai in Nanjing. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, Jiangsu became the anti-Japanese base of the New Fourth Army. After the Southern Anhui Incident, the New Fourth Army was rebuilt in Yancheng, with Comrade Chen Yi as acting commander and Comrade Liu Shaoqi as secretary and political commissar of China Central Bureau.

During the War of Liberation, the people's army led by our party won the famous battles of Huangqiao, Suzhong and Subei in Jiangsu. After the famous Huaihai Campaign 1948, China in April 1949.

The People's Liberation Army "Millions of Heroes Crossing the River", Nanjing was liberated and Jiangsu was reborn.
