Why is the ancient military camp also called "Liu Camp"?

Wang Wei, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, said: "After passing Xinfeng City, I returned to Xiliu Camp." This poem was written by Wang Wei when he was young.

At that time, Wang Wei was sent to Weicheng to inspect the winter hunting situation in the military camp.

This poem describes this event.

The main meaning of these two poems is to celebrate a successful hunt and go to Xinfeng to hold a banquet.

After drinking and resting, they quickly prepared themselves and returned to the barracks.

Xinfeng and Liuxi mentioned in the poem are both place names, about 80 miles apart.

But Wang Wei was hunting in Weicheng, not in these two places, so it is a fictional writing technique.

So when it comes to Xinfeng, let's talk about Xinfeng, the name of the county. It was called "Yili" in the Qin Dynasty and is located in the northeast of Lintong County, Shaanxi Province.

"Yili" is a city built by Qin Shihuang specifically for the craftsmen who built the imperial tombs at that time.

It was rebuilt in the seventh year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty and abolished by the Tang Dynasty.

When Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty established his capital in Guanzhong, his father Taizu lived in Chang'an Palace.

He was always depressed because he missed home.

In order to please his father, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty ordered the reconstruction of Licheng and rebuilt an identical county based on the model of his hometown Xinfeng.

After it was built, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty moved the residents of his hometown here and renamed it "Xinfeng".

It is said that because the new county is so similar to the hometown, even chickens and dogs can find their way home here.

Therefore, later generations use the phrase "roosters and dogs know the new harvest" to describe people who are as familiar and happy in other places as in their hometown. For example, Su Shi's poem "Arrived in Huizhou on December 2" in the Song Dynasty: "As if wandering in a dream, chickens and dogs know

Xinfeng, you rejoice." In addition, in the Tang Dynasty, Xinfeng was a famous wine producing area with many hotels.

People from Chang'an go out for spring outings in the countryside, and most of them get drunk in Xinfeng.

Xinfeng mentioned in Tang poetry means drinking here.

Therefore, "Xinfeng Wine" is used to refer to fine wine.

For example, Li Shangyin's poem "Wind and Rain" in the Tang Dynasty: "I call for new abundant wine from my heart to dissolve thousands of sorrows." Let's talk about thin willows, which is related to the theme of this article.

Liushu, a place name, is located on the north bank of the Weihe River in the southwest of Xianyang County, Shaanxi Province.

General Zhou Yafu of the Han Dynasty garrisoned troops in Liuxi, which was named "Xiliu Camp".

Therefore, the camp was first seen in "Historical Records".

"Jianghou Zhoubo Family": "With Hanoi Shouyafu as the general, organize and prepare Hu in the army." It is reported that in the sixth year of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu invaded the border on a large scale.

Emperor Wen then appointed Wan Yanzheng as General Liu Li and stationed troops in the army.

Zhu Zi was appointed as a general and stationed at Thorny Gate; Zhou Yafu, the leader of Hanoi, was appointed as a general, and Liu Si was stationed to guard against the Huns.

Emperor Wen personally went to comfort the army. When he arrived at the Bashang and Ximen military camps, he entered directly.

From the general to the subordinate officers and soldiers, everyone rode on horseback to see him off.

After that, when I came to the Liuxi military camp, all the officers and soldiers in the army were wearing armor, carrying sharp blades, their crossbows were open, and their bowstrings were fully drawn.

The emperor's leader arrived at the Liuxi military camp and could not enter Qi Zongzheng's new book network.

The leader said: "The Emperor is coming!" The army commander said: "Our general has given an order. In the army, we only obey the general's orders and not the emperor's edicts." Soon, Emperor Wen arrived, but he still couldn't get in.

So Emperor Wen sent an envoy with Jeff to issue an imperial edict to the general: "I want to go in to comfort the army." Zhou Yafu had just brought the message to open the door of the barracks.

The sergeant guarding the gate said to Emperor Wen's entourage: "The general has a rule. Horses are not allowed in the military camp." Emperor Wen then tightened the reins and walked slowly.

When he arrived at the camp, General Zhou Yafu saluted with his weapon and said: "Soldiers in armor cannot bow their heads. Please allow me to meet the emperor with military salutes." Emperor Wen was moved by him, and his face immediately became serious and solemn.

He leaned on the crossbar in front of the car to greet the officers and soldiers, and sent someone to thank Zhou Yafu, saying: "The emperor has come to comfort the generals. Therefore, the disciplinary military camp was later called "West Liu Camp", and "Liu Camp" was used to refer to

For example, Shi Jianwu of the Tang Dynasty said in his poem "Giving to the Admiral of Border Passage": "I am afraid that dogs will come to Lusai, so I am watching the battle plan.

"In addition, the "Langyamen Army" is known as an army with lax discipline. For example, Du Gu in the Tang Dynasty and the poem "Liu Yuan Wai Da" wrote: "The sword is always used by Qiyuan officials, and martial law should be used by the Ximen Army.
