I found a lot of relevant historical information about Siping City on the Internet. When introducing the birth of Siping City, many of them say: "Siping was named Five Stations,..." and so on. Then he explained that it actually comes from the name of the old town, "Old Siping Street", which is directly west of Siping.
The author has a problem with getting to the bottom of things. Where did the names of these five stations come from? After reading "The History of Siping City", I realized that everything comes from this book: "Siping was named Five Stations. After the Emperor built the railway from Changchun to the south, there was one station every 60 miles, and Siping was the fifth station. , so it was called Five Stations (Guojiadian was Four Stations and Shuangmiaozi was Six Stations). After the Japanese occupation, it was changed to Siping. Its meaning is based on the old Siping Street area, which is located in Li. The center of the four market towns of Shuxian, Bamiancheng, Erlushu and Banlashanmen Street are all 40 miles apart, so it is named Siping Street. “If you are interested, you can compare this with all the information. You will find that when describing the emergence of the city of Siping, the situation introduced is almost the same as this passage.
The "Siping City Chronicle" has long stated: "Siping City was originally called Siping Street, commonly known as Five Stations."
Siping is called five stations, where is the first station? Where are the five stops without one? The first stop is Kuanchengzi, but I have never heard of Kuanchengzi people calling the place where they live one stop. Even the three-station site in Gongzhuling was an open prairie like Siping when the station was built, the territory of Darhan. The name of the three stations is only temporary. Someone explained: When Lao Mao built the station, it was called that because it was a branch line in South Manchuria. However, since it is the South Manchuria branch line, can it start with Changchun? How to explain the railway north of Kuanchengzi?
So everyone should understand who started the naming of the five stations in Siping. This was the final result of the war between Japan and Russia in Northeast China. Russia, as the defeated party, was forced to sign a peace treaty with Japan in Portsmouth on September 5, 1905. The railway from Changchun (Kuanchengzi) to Lushunkou and all attached rights, properties and coal mines will be transferred to the Japanese government. Note: The Japanese imperialists seized the Northeastern and Southern Railways, and Kuanchengzi was the dividing line between the two countries.
China was plundered and enslaved by imperialist bandits in the old society. The two bandit countries in the Northeast fought for Chinese land and forcibly divided the Northeast into North and South Manchuria. This is also concrete physical evidence that the two imperialists, Tsarist Russia and Japanese invaders, invaded China.
After Tsarist Russia built the station, they forcibly snatched the name of the town fifteen miles west of Siping and named it the train station, calling it Siping Street Train Station. It makes no sense for people living on Siping Street to object. Later, the Japanese dog robber seized the railway. During the negotiations, because he did not know the name of the train station, he called out that it was the fifth train station from Kuanchengzi to the south. The people in Siping Street were so happy that they shouted loudly at Wu Zhan. The shouting was so loud that those who came after could not tell who was first and who was last.
The land in Siping is under the jurisdiction of Lishu County and is also the place under the former Siping Street. Yin Shousong, the county magistrate at the time, also fought over the issue of title rights. In order to fight against Japanese imperialism economically, Yin Shousong opened a market, which is now an area in Siping Tiedong. Yin Shousong named it Siping Street New Market, which is now part of Siping Tiedong District. It is just a market belonging to Siping Street. Therefore, the name Five Stations became even louder from then on. This is exactly the Chinese people’s struggle against the right of belonging.
This loud and protesting name made it difficult for later generations to distinguish, confusing the actual name with the name at that time. I also learned that Guojiadian in the north is the fourth station and Shuangmiaozi in the south is the sixth station. I even thought that the fifth station was the original name. In fact, "Siping City Chronicle" has already made this very clear. It's just that there are still explanations on the Internet based on previous statements.
I only understand it this way, and it is also based on the analysis of relevant data.
