Tongjiang (Chinese: 同江市; pinyin: Tóngjiāng Shì) is a city of 160,000 in eastern Heilongjiang province, People's Republic of China, located at the confluence and on the right banks of the Songhua and Amur Rivers, the latter which marks the border with Russia. Administratively, it is a county-level city of Jiamusi.

Toponymy

[edit]

The city is also referred to by the Nanai toponym Lahasusu (Chinese: 拉哈苏苏; pinyin: Lāhāsūsū), which means "ancient house" in the Nanai language.[1]

History

[edit]
Tongjiang (labelled as T'ung-chiang (Lahasusu) 同江) (1956)

Ancient history

[edit]

During the Western Zhou (1045 BCE - 771 BCE), the area of present-day Tongjiang was inhabited by the Sushen people.[1] Later, during the Qin and Han dynasties (221 BCE - 220 CE), the area was inhabited by the Yilou.[1] During the Northern and Southern dynasties (420 CE - 589 CE), the area was inhabited by the Wuji [zh].[1]

Early medieval history

[edit]

From 698 to 936, the kingdom of Balhae occupied northern Korea and parts of Manchuria and Primorsky Krai, consisting of the Nanai, the Udege, the Evenks, descendants of the Tungus-speaking people, and the people of the recently fallen Goguryeo kingdom of Korea.[citation needed] Sometime during the Sui or Tang dynasties (581 CE to 907 CE), the Wuji people disappeared from the area, and it became inhabited by Heishui Mohe tribes (Korean흑수말갈; Hanja黑水靺鞨, pinyin: Hēishuǐ Mòhé).[1] These tribes were submitted to Balhae Kingdom under King Seon's reign (818-830).[citation needed]

King Seon administrated their territories by creating a prefecture in the neighbourhood: The Hoiwon Prefecture [zh] (Korean회원부; Hanja懷遠府) with Dalju (Korean달주; Hanja達州), present-day Tongjiang, as its administrative centre.[citation needed]

20th century

[edit]

During the Sino-Soviet conflict in 1929, the Soviet Amur Military Flotilla defeated the Chinese Sungari Military Flotilla in the Battle of Lahasusu.

Other township-level divisions

[edit]

In addition to the aforementioned divisions, Tongjiang administers 11 other township-level divisions, comprising two tree farms (林场), seven farms (农场), one seed farm (良种场), and one ranch (牧场).[2]

Tongjiang-Nizhneleninskoye railway bridge

[edit]

The Tongjiang-Nizhneleninskoye railway bridge was proposed in 2007 by Valery Solomonovich Gurevich, the vice-chairman of the Jewish Autonomous Oblast in Russia. The railway bridge over the Amur River will connect Tongjiang with Nizhneleninskoye, a village in the Jewish Autonomous Oblast.[5]

The Chinese portion of the bridge was finished in July 2016.[6] Work began on the longer Russian section of the bridge in December 2016. Completion of structural link between the two sides of the bridge was completed in March 2019.[7][8] Opening to rail traffic has been repeatedly delayed, with the December 2019 estimate being "the end of 2020",[9] and then 3rd quarter of 2021.[10]

The bridge was completed in August 2021, and began undergoing tests in April 2022.[11] Rostislav Goldstein, the current governor of the Jewish Autonomous Oblast, announced that he expected the bridge to be fully operational by August 20, 2022.[11]
