Historical origin

In the early years, it was called dawugang. Later, it was renamed because the local people commemorated doctor Lu Jia, an important official of the Western Han Dynasty. At that time, in order to win the world in the Central Plains of China, the princes from all walks of life met each other with swords and soldiers, and the war was on the verge of chaos. Zhao Tuo, a general of the Qin Dynasty, took the opportunity to establish himself as King Wu of Nanyue in Panyu of Nanyue (now Guangdong and Guangxi). When Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty won the throne, he didn't want to enlist Zhao Tuo in Nanyue, so he sent his counselor Lu Jia to the south to persuade Zhao Tuo to surrender to the Han Dynasty. With his excellent eloquence and deep understanding of Chen Dayi, Lu Jia finally accepted Zhao Tuo and granted him the seal of Nanyue King on behalf of the Han Dynasty. Because of this, Lu Jia was granted the title of Shangfu. After Liu Bang's death, empress Lu faced the court and imposed economic sanctions on Nanyue. The contradiction between Han and Vietnam intensified. Empress Lu sent troops to the south to attack Nanyue. Zhao Tuo resisted and counterattacked to Hunan, defeated several counties on the border of Changsha, and resolutely declared his separation from the Han Dynasty, calling himself "Nanyue Wudi". In 179 B.C., empress Lu died. Emperor Wen of Han Dynasty Liu Heng ascended the throne and sent people to rebuild the tomb of Zhao Tuo's ancestors. The tomb keepers offered sacrifices on time, and rewarded Zhao Tuo's cousins with official posts and property. On the recommendation of Prime Minister Chen Ping, he ordered emperor Gaozu to send Lu Jia of Nanyue to Nanyue again to persuade Zhao Tuo to return to the Han Dynasty. Zhao Tuo accepted Lu Jia's advice again, except that the emperor's name returned to the Han Dynasty. He founded Nanyue in 2004 BC, which was officially included in the unified territory of China. Although he continued to use the name of emperor in Nanyue, until the time of emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, Zhao Tuo was a minister to the Han Dynasty and sent people to Chang'an to make a pilgrimage every spring and autumn.

In the 17 years before and after that, doctor Lu Jia went to Panyu, Nanyue from the Central Plains, convinced the border people, and made great contributions to the maintenance of national unity. This historical story has been passed down in South Vietnam. The existing exquisite sculptures in the Chen ancestral temple in Guangzhou reproduce this historical fact. There are doctor's pavilion and doctor's Academy on the doctor's mountain. There are two versions for the South Vietnamese people to change Dawu Mountain to Dafu mountain. One is that Dr. Lu Jia was buried in this mountain after his death, but there is no record in historical books. The other is that Dr. Lu Jia had to pass through this mountain when he went south to persuade Zhao Tuo. Once when he passed by, he was trapped and thirsty. In a hurry, the horse trodden on the ground with its front hooves and dug out a mouthful of sweet spring. The people changed the name of dawugang to Dafu mountain and called it Yinma spring.
