ABSTRACT

The political interdependence, economic complementarity, and cultural integration among cities are in the Fujiang River Basin during historical periods. Before the Song Dynasty, the political, economic, and cultural center of China was located in the Guanzhong Plain, and the Bashu region formed the "Jinniu Road" urban agglomeration in a northeast southwest direction. After the Song Dynasty, the political center of China moved eastward, the economic and cultural center moved southward, and the Fujiang River basin diagonally penetrated the Sichuan Basin. The convenient Fujiang waterway allowed the northwest southeast Fujiang River basin urban agglomeration to rise, forming several important cities such as Zhongba, Mianyang, Tongchuan, and Hechuan. Since modern times, waterways have gradually declined, and areas such as Tongchuan, Langzhong, and Hechuan have also declined. Mianyang, relying on the construction of the Sichuan Shaanxi Highway and Baocheng Railway, has always played a key role in the Fujiang River Basin.
