Human history

When Zhang Xianzhong led his troops into Sichuan, he besieged Shicheng mountain with Feng Shuangli. At night, he used the "fire sheep array" to conquer the gate of the village, killing more than 20000 officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. According to Yibin County annals · mountains and rivers written by Jiaqing of Qing Dynasty, "Shicheng mountain is a hundred miles west of the country. The mountain is high and steep, and it is like a city, that is, the ancient Shimen road. In the rebellion of offering thieves, the people went up to the mountain to avoid it. The bandit gang Feng Shuangli attacked the mountain and killed about ten thousand people. There was a sound of blood flow. " Another biography of Li's Xianying: "in June of the year of Jiashen, the thief Feng Shuangli led the thief across the Baishu River, broke the Shicheng mountain on the 30th of December, and killed more than two residents."

On November 26, 1862, the first year of the Tongzhi reign of the Qing Dynasty, Shi Dakai, the wing king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, led 100000 troops to occupy today's Hengjiang town and Shuanglong town. He wanted to cross the river to conquer Yibin and pointed to Chengdu in order to control the situation. According to their intention, the Qing army sent a large army to stop in the area of Hengjiang town. Shidakai retreated to Shicheng mountain, built a 3000 meter plank road between the cliffs, and set up four village gates to guard. The two armies were at war in February, with casualties on each other. At that time, General Guo Jiyi and Feng Bainian of the Taiping Army secretly submitted a letter to General Liu yuezhao of the Qing Dynasty for surrender, and made an appointment to set fire to the village. In addition, General Hu Zhong of the Qing Dynasty broke into the village through the path. The Taiping army was forced to retreat to the foot of the mountain because of the enemy's back and back and the internal and external traps. On January 31, 1863, Shi Dakai led the remnant to break through the encirclement, crossed the Hengjiang river through pengyin yanzipo, and retreated into Yunnan. In the first World War of shichengshan, the Taiping army lost more than 40000 soldiers.

In 1910, Li Yixi, Zhao Duan, Li Longyan and others formed the Guanhe comrades' army, and raised Yiqi in Shicheng mountain. Later, they were surrounded and destroyed by the Qing army, and hundreds of volunteers died in yaogutuo.

In September 1930, Liu Wencai's troops, at the request of Xiao Xizhen, the leader of Guanhe Baoshang, besieged and suppressed the "Dadaohui" led by Liu Mingji in Shicheng mountain. The soldiers set fire to the mountain, and the flames soared, causing the "Dadaohui" to suffer heavy losses. The magnificent Wansong Temple turned to ashes at that time.

In February 1935, he was ordered to stay in Hengjiang to prevent the Red Army from passing through pan Wenhua's department in Yibin during the long march. He built fortifications and blockhouses in Shicheng mountain. For a moment, the atmosphere was tense. Unexpectedly, the Red Army crossed Chishui four times and went north by a detour.

In 1950, Zheng Jingwei (from Fulong, graduated from Huangpu phase VI, former director of a Political Department of the 39th army of the Kuomintang, joined the Chuankang appeasement Office), Chen Yunpeng (former battalion commander of the 72nd army of the Kuomintang), Jiang Shuqing (bandit leader of Fengyi) established the "Southwest anti Communist national salvation command". He once captured the new Hengjiang people's government, and four PLA comrades, including company commander Li Keyun, died. Zheng Jingwei sent a telegram to all parts of southern Sichuan and declared that he "vowed to let Yi Nan become Taiwan and make Hengjiang Xichang.". The 131 regiment of the Chinese people's Liberation Army moved quickly to Hengjiang, and the first detachment of the "anti Communist and national salvation army" immediately withdrew into shichengshan and resisted tenaciously. On June 10, the 1st Battalion of the 131 regiment was divided into two groups: one was to carry out a strong attack from the front to break the enemy fortifications; the other was to climb up from the rock gap to occupy the commanding height and attack from the top down. The bandits were caught off guard and ran away in a hurry. Soon after, the remaining units were surrounded and annihilated by the PLA. After the second liberation of Hengjiang, Zheng Jingwei's dream of "establishing a base area suitable for the South behind the enemy" was completely shattered.
