In ancient times, after the more effective emperors quelled local or frontier rebellions, in order to appease the local people, they always introduced some policies and strategies, and these policies and strategies were engraved on stone tablets and implanted in place names in very simple words to permanently commemorate, so as to achieve the purpose of educating the people and making the whole country firmly remember.
Place names are implanted with "Sui"
The original meaning of "sui" refers to the rope used to hold the hand when boarding the car, and with this rope, people are stable and safe. By extension, it means appeasement, peace.
It can be seen that the use of the word "Sui" to give a place name is the painstaking effort of the feudal ruler to appease the people and bless the local peace.
Suihua City, Heilongjiang, was developed and established in the first year of qing tongzhi (1862) and named Beituan Linzi. "Sui" means to be safe and appeased. "Poetry Xiaoya Mandarin Duck": "Fulu Suizhi." "Zhou Song Huan" has a record of "Sui Wanbang". "Transformation" means "change", which means to create and educate. Therefore, suihua means to appease and educate the people and make them auspicious and peaceful. It can be said that the meaning is far-reaching!
Suide County, located in Yulin, northern Shaanxi, was a place where northern nomads often invaded in ancient times. Historically, the Prince of Qin, Fu Su, the general Meng Tian, and the famous Han Dynasty general Li Guangzeng led his troops to garrison against the Xiongnu. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, the deposed emperor Yuan Qin of the Western Wei Dynasty set up Suizhou, Anning County, and ShangXian here in 552, taking the meaning of protecting the border and the people.
In addition, people like Suizhong County in Liaoning Province and Suining County in Hunan Province all mean this.
Place names are implanted with "Jing"
The original meaning of "Jing" refers to quiet and immobility, which by extension means calm and stable. The place name with the word "Jing" truly reflects the ancient emperor's desire to adhere to social stability and the peace of the people.
Jingbian County in Yulin, northern Shaanxi, was called "XiaZhou" and "Shuofang" in ancient times, and in the sixth year (1373) of the Ming Taizu Hongwu set up "Jingbian Guard, taking the meaning of appeasement of the frontier." In the ninth year of Qing Yongzheng (1731), "Jingbian County" was established here, and the name is still used today.
Jingjiang, Jiangsu, is located at the mouth of the Yangtze River, with many floods all year round, and the people in the territory are often worried and worried, so it is named "Jingjiang", which means "the rivers are stable, and the world is peaceful". It is a measure to pin people's good wishes and appease local officials and people.
There is also Jingzhou County, Hunan, which was restless in ancient times, and its name also means this. There are also place names implanted with the words "Fu" and "Huai", such as Fushun in Liaoning and Huairou in Beijing, which express the will of the ruler to appease the people, stabilize the situation, and unite the upper and lower levels.
In film and television dramas, we often see what "appeasement offices" the Kuomintang has set up in some places, is it not strange? Appeasement is the use of appeasement to stabilize the localities, the office is the central government's dispatch agency, and the Republic of China period is the Kuomintang's dispatch agency. The so-called "Appeasement Office" was nominally a military apparatus used to appease the localities and maintain stability.
Old Jiang, a person who has obviously not read a few books, prefers to drag texts, pretends to be profound, and can't move what "appeasement" ah, what "line" ah, and so on.
The predecessor of the Appeasement Office was the Appeasement Commission, and it was found that the earliest Appeasement Commission was the Guangdong Liangyang Appeasement Commission, which was initiated in 1926 by Chen Zhangfu, Huang Zupei and Luo Han. This Chen Zhangfu was a good friend of Chairman Mao, an early outstanding Communist Party member, who died in 1930. Huang Zupei was Huang Gongluo's uncle, originally from the Kuomintang system, and joined the Communist Party in 1949. Luo Han was a group of students who had been repatriated from France with Li Lisan, and was a loyal fan of Chen Duxiu and a famous Trotskyist.

As the military command organ of the old Chiang Kai-shek government of the Kuomintang, the means of "appeasement" were naturally military means; nominally defending against foreign enemies in wartime, in fact in peacetime it often used garrisons to suppress bandits, popular protests, and democratic revolutions. Since ancient times, the landlord class rulers have often oppressed the people under the banner of "appeasement," and the Kuomintang, which represents the interests of the landlord class and the bureaucratic comprador class, is naturally no exception.
After all, giving the place "appeasement" is not just convenient for them to exploit the common people.
As mentioned earlier, the system of the Appeasement Committee was designed by the Communists, and the Kuomintang only copied it from the stacked bed frame house, but "got its form but did not get the actual thing", and the old Chiang Kai-shek did not understand the profound meaning of "appeasement" at all, can he not be defeated?
