The first form of immigration into Sichuan is to enter Sichuan by order. The immigrants in Nanchuan County, Sichuan Province are Huguang people, especially Goose Feet and Daqiu in Xiaogan Township, Macheng (Macheng set up four townships in the early Ming Dynasty, Xiaogan Township entered Xianju Township in the Chenghua year). At that time, when the imperial court issued the imperial edict "Biography of Chu Shimin", the grass-roots implementation departments used the method of binding villages by force, so the origin of immigrants was not only the same as place names, but also small place names. The ancestor of Ma Shitu, a famous writer, was from Macheng. During the Qianlong period, the four brothers Ma reclaimed land in Macheng. They went up the Yangtze River to Zhongzhou (now Zhongxian County) and left the curved hills and sandbars in Shi Baozhai for more than ten miles. Later, the small place names here were called Majiashan and majiawan. Ma's four people have multiplied more than a thousand people in Pingchu Village near the Yangtze River. The second is to survive and deposit in Shu. Ai Wu, a famous writer, was born in Xiaogan Township, Macheng, and made a living by farming. However, due to the loss of land, in the mid-Kangxi period, under the background of "Huguang filling Sichuan", he had to go to Xishu for survival, so he took his wife and belt and entered Sichuan from the Yangtze River waterway, and finally chose the plain at the junction of Xinfan County and Pengxian County in Chengdu, and cut in line with trenches to occupy agriculture. The third is to do business in Shu. In the early Qing Dynasty, the trade between Hubei and neighboring Sichuan was very convenient, and some of them settled in nearby Sichuan. For example, Liu Tingqi, who was originally from Macheng, Hubei Province, ordered his family Liu Junchen to settle in Zhongjiang "Xiangtu" in the thirty-ninth year of Kangxi, and then settled in Zhongjiang with his wife. The fourth is to settle down as an official. For example, Liang Guangyu, commander-in-chief of Sichuan Longying, was originally from Huguang Macheng. After entering Sichuan, he was appointed Commander-in-Chief, and then he lived in Sanmuli, Quanmen Township and Jiangyou County, Wu Jia.
Sichuan has experienced seven great migrations in history. For the first time, after Qin destroyed Shu and Pakistan, thousands of Qin immigrants entered Shu, about 40,000 to 50,000. The second time, from the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, the population of northern China moved southward. During this period, a large number of immigrants from Shaanxi, Gansu and other places adjacent to Sichuan entered Sichuan from Qinling. The third time, in the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, northerners moved south all over the country. At this time, Shaanxi and Gansu immigrants entered Sichuan; The fourth time was at the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, southern immigrants mainly from Hubei entered Sichuan. The fifth time, Yu Sheng immigrated to Sichuan in early Qing Dynasty. The largest number of immigrants this time were Hubei and Hunan (at that time, the administrative region was called "Huguang Province", and part of Guangxi was also under its jurisdiction), and the immigrant population reached more than 6.5438+0 million. Now the folklore "Huguang fills Sichuan" is a great migration when the blood and tears of Laochuan people are about to run out, which is a specific historical concept. The sixth time, War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression was liberated to the whole country in advance, and many people fled or "Nangan" settled in Sichuan; The seventh time was the Three Gorges immigrants from the end of 20th century to the beginning of 2nd/kloc-0th century, and many people settled in Sichuan.
