Kang Zhong Bao's Yellow Dragon Mace Handle Spear
Huánglóng dài bǎ qiāng
This news clip features Kang Zhong Bao of Wushan county. He is one of the few people to have inherited the methods of the Huanglong Da Ba Qiang.
This weapon is said to have been created by Jiang Wei himself and to have been carried by his soldiers into battle.
It is only practiced in Gansu province, by the local people in the western part of Tianshui prefecture in Gangu and Wushan counties, and in Nearby Pinglian prefecture in the Kongdong mountains where it has been preserved by Taoist priest Yang Jun Ming, the 20 the generation Kongtong inheritor of the weapon.
Jiang Wei Wushu is the name given to the folk arts of Gansu province's Gangu county, Tianshui prefecture.
Tianshui prefecture is located next to Pinglian Prefecture where the Famous Kongtong mountains are found and the Jiang Wei martial arts are often considered a branch of the Kongtong school. This area has long been known for it's folk martial arts, preserving a wide variety of obscure weapons and a huge number of stick forms.
The people of this area attribute the origin of their martial arts to the General Jiang
Wei (202--264 A.D.) of the Three Kingdoms period. Although Jiang Wei served under Zhuge Liang and later as a general in his own right for the Shu-Han kingdom, he was originally a mid level officer of Cao-Wei. Born in Gangu county in the Tianshui commandery of the Cao-Wei kingdom, while serving as a mid level commander he was approached by the great strategist Zhuge Liang who recognized in him a gift for strategy and command. After defecting to Shu-Han he was quickly promoted becoming a General after the Death of Zhuge Liang.
Although he achieved much for Han while serving under Zhuge Liang, as a general in his own right he launched several ultimately unsuccessful expeditions north against Wei. These expeditions helped contribute to the ultimate fall of Shu-Han.
Jiang Wei was later killed in an unsuccessful plot to oust the Wei soldiers and restore the empire of Shu-Han.

SUMMARY
=======
The Yangtze or Yangzi (English: or ), which is 6,300 km (3,915 mi) long, is the longest river in Asia, the third-longest in the world and the longest in the world to flow entirely within one country. Its source is in the northern part of the Tibetan Plateau and it flows 6,300 km (3,900 mi) in a generally eastern direction to the East China Sea. It is the sixth-largest river by discharge volume in the world. Its drainage basin comprises one-fifth of the land area of China, and is home to nearly one-third of the country's population.The Yangtze has played a major role in the history, culture and economy of China. For thousands of years, the river has been used for water, irrigation, sanitation, transportation, industry, boundary-marking and war. The prosperous Yangtze River Delta generates as much as 20% of the PRC's GDP. The Three Gorges Dam on the Yangtze is the largest hydro-electric power station in the world. In mid-2014, the Chinese government announced it was building a multi-tier transport network, comprising railways, roads and airports, to create a new economic belt alongside the river.The Yangtze flows through a wide array of ecosystems and is habitat to several endemic and endangered species including the Chinese alligator, the narrow-ridged finless porpoise, the Chinese paddlefish, the (extinct) Yangtze River dolphin or baiji, and the Yangtze sturgeon. In recent years, the river has suffered from industrial pollution, plastic pollution, agricultural run-off, siltation, and loss of wetland and lakes, which exacerbates seasonal flooding. Some sections of the river are now protected as nature reserves. A stretch of the upstream Yangtze flowing through deep gorges in western Yunnan is part of the Three Parallel Rivers of Yunnan Protected Areas, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

SUMMARY
=======
Chongqing (, also US: , Chinese: [ʈʂʰʊ̌ŋ.tɕʰîŋ] (listen)), alternately romanized as Chungking, is a major city in southwest China. Administratively, it is one of China's four municipalities under the direct administration of central government (the other three are Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin), and the only such municipality in China located far away from the coast.Chongqing was a municipality during the Republic of China (ROC) administration, serving as its wartime capital during the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937–1945); during this period, Chongqing was listed as one of the world's four anti-fascist command centers, along with Washington, D.C., London and Moscow. The current municipality was recreated on 14 March 1997 to help develop the central and western parts of China. The Chongqing administrative municipality has a population of over 30 million, spread over an area the size of Austria. The city of Chongqing made of 9 urban districts has a much smaller population of 18,384,100 as of 2016 estimation. According to the 2010 census, Chongqing is the most populous Chinese municipality, and also the largest direct-controlled municipality in China, containing 26 districts, eight counties, and four autonomous counties.
The official abbreviation of the city, Yu (渝), was approved by the State Council on 18 April 1997. This abbreviation is derived from the old name of a part of the Jialing River that runs through Chongqing and feeds into the Yangtze River.
Chongqing has a significant history and culture. Being one of China's National Central Cities, it serves as the economic centre of the upstream Yangtze basin. It is a major manufacturing centre and transportation hub; a July 2012 report by the Economist Intelligence Unit described it as one of China's 13 emerging megalopolises.
