Historical evolution

Guo Ju has a long history. According to the investigation, since the Tang Dynasty, Guo Ju has had sporadic residents. From the Southern Song Dynasty, Yuan Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, Qing Dynasty, the Republic of China to the founding of new China, it has a history of more than 1000 years. In the yuan and Ming Dynasties, the coastal areas of Zhejiang Province were often harassed and invaded by Japanese pirates from the sea. Japanese pirates were very rampant, killing people, setting fire, raping, raping and plundering everywhere. The common people had no livelihood and hated them. The unarmed working people could not fight against Japanese pirates. The only way was to build cities and encircle villages to protect the safety of the common people. In the 20th year of Hongwu (1386 AD), Zhu Yuanzhang said to Tang He, "although you are old, please help me." The following year (1387 AD), Tang He, the Duke of Xin state, came to Guoju. He climbed the Zongtai mountain to look at the terrain and environment of Guoju, determined the scope of the construction of the city, and appointed 22 commanders, Yao, Shen, Zhang, Jing, Li, Wu and so on, as envoys of the construction of the city. After years of hard work, a magnificent and magnificent ancient city of Guoju finally appeared in the remote mountain Aoli along the coast. At that time, Guoju city wall was 2378.5 meters in circumference, 5.3 meters in height (excluding battlements), 5 meters in surface width and 8.4 meters in base width. The city covered an area of 270000 square meters, totaling 409 mu. From north to south, from east to west, there were four main streets, with cross street in the middle. Each street had 26 lanes and four lanes under the city, running through vertically and horizontally. The layout was reasonable. There are four gates in the southeast and northwest. The east gate is the channel for all sewage and rainwater to flow out of the city, so it is called "Watergate". The south gate is called "microwave gate" because it faces the ocean and wishes the ocean to be calm. The west gate is the main way for people to enter and leave the city, so it is called "Anji gate". The north gate is near the foot of Weiwei mountain and has beautiful mountains and waters all year round, so it is called "Chongxiu gate". Each gate has two inner and outer gates, with an urn in the middle, about 700 square meters, forming a triangular semicircle. Both sides of the gate are made of stones, which are very strong. There are 923 concave and convex battlements, 13 police shops and 9 enemy towers in the city. The west gate also has a lookout tower and suspension bridge. There are Drum Tower and bell tower in the city. It is an ancient castle for war. After the construction of the city, Guo Ju brought a sense of security to the people, thinking that they could no longer be harassed by the Japanese pirates. However, the tree wanted to be quiet, but the wind continued, and the Japanese pirates still repeatedly violated. According to historical records, there were three major disasters. In February of the 31st year of Jiajing (1552), the pirate king led Wuguan into Dingguan customs to plunder. Duanshi, the captor of Fujian Province, led his troops to repel him. Woguan moved to Ligang and moved among Wen, Tai, Ning and Shao. On June 20, the thieves made a profit by breaking the rock and attacked guojusuo city again. At that time, Haiwei commanded Fan Wei to garrison guojusuo City, and Wei Yinghong, the commander of the garrison, inspected the city to discuss the plan of defending the enemy. On the 21st, there was a thunderstorm in the middle of the night. Woguan took the opportunity to use bamboo to bind grass men to test. When the city's guards relaxed a little, he entered the city as a real person. Fan Mao forgot to fight with the governor's forces, and fought with woguan on datutang. He exhausted himself and died. Shouxie commanded the Wei Ying governor's forces to fight in the night. Until dawn, woguan fled from the north gate. In May of the 32nd year of Jiajing (1553 AD), Guo Jushou led his troops to help Liu en, the capital secretary, to suppress the Japanese soldiers in luhuagang (today's Putuo) of Zhoushan. Only a few dozen guards were left in the city. Unexpectedly, more than 200 Japanese soldiers took advantage of the situation. After entering the city, they killed and set fire, robbed all the shops, and tried to raze the city to the ground. All the people in the city were angry, so they were killed With dozens of guards, struggling to resist, the result is that "lailushanqiang (a vicious bird) is not worth mahjong (Sparrow)" and more than 200 Japanese soldiers are driven out of the city. In April of the 40th year of Jiajing (1561 AD), more than 40 big and small Japanese ships and more than 500 Japanese soldiers invaded Guo Ju again. At that time, the garrison stationed at Guo Ju attacked GUI Du and killed more than 30 Japanese soldiers by skillfully using arrow stone fire weapons. For a moment, the Japanese soldiers had no choice but to camp in the big teaching ground outside Ximen. They dug graves outside the city and burned houses to disturb the people. Later, they used more than 30 soft ladders in Xiajiashan They tried to enter the city and fight back to the governor of Guangxi. The people in the city fought bravely. The Japanese soldiers fled immediately when they saw the situation. After the victory of the Anti Japanese War, the Japanese pirates subsided, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. There were no more violent robbers like the Japanese pirates to invade the people of Guoju. Therefore, all the facilities and equipment of the castle gradually lost their original role. With the passage of time, the police shop, the enemy tower, the lookout tower, the suspension bridge and the battlements were slowly demolished and disappeared. Before the Anti Japanese War, the walls and gates of the ancient city of Guoju remained intact. After the Anti Japanese War, on March 28, 1941, the primary school in the city was bombed by Japanese planes, and the school was forced to move to an Academy at the foot of the riverside mountain outside the city. Students in the city had to walk around the west gate or the north gate, which was extremely inconvenient. Therefore, the walls at the end of huangjianong in the west gate and jingjianong in the north gate were excavated and leveled From then on, the ancient city of Guoju began to be destroyed. On the third day of the tenth lunar month in 1949, three Chiang Kai Shek planes flew from Zhoushan to bomb Guo Ju. One of the bombs fell into the wall of the north gate. The city gate outside the north gate collapsed immediately, killing six people and flattening the city gate outside the north gate. In the 1970s, Guoju city had a large population and few houses. To solve the problem of housing is the top priority for the people of Guoju. Therefore, the village committee in the city arranged some people to use the city wall base to build houses, and Guoju ancient city disappeared.

It has five beacon towers: Gaoshan, tuze, Guanshan, Meishan, Xiajian, etc. The beacon fire spread from Zongtai mountain to Housuo and even to qijiashan. According to the records of Zhenhai county annals of the Republic of China, the beacon tower of Zongtai mountain was set up with a flag army to watch and hear each other, smoke in the day and fire in the night, so the beacon tower was set up. Since the middle of Ming Dynasty, Qi Jiguang, Yuqian, Ouyang Lijian and others led the troops to fight against Japan, Britain and France, and the smoke of anti aggression war started here. The beacon tower in Zongtai mountain is a historical witness of fighting against foreign invasion and a rare patriotic and inspirational education base. At present, the stone house site of beacon tower in Zongtai mountain is basically intact. The stone house has a unique structure. The foundation is rammed with sand and stone, and the stone house is built on it. The foundation is trapezoidal, 7 meters long at the top, 8 meters long at the bottom, and 3.7 meters high. It is very solid. The stone house looks like the top of the mountain, covered with stones, and combined with mortise and tenon. The four walls were built with stone and the south gate was opened. In November 1994, the people's Government of Beilun District issued a document announcing that the beacon tower site in Zongtai mountain is a cultural relic protection unit at the district level and a patriotism education base at the district level.
