Zhanggong Village is located on a hill in the water area south of the Yangtze River. According to relevant documents, this part of the water area was named Yanxi Lake in the late Yuan and early Ming Dynasty according to the current topography of Wuhan. , it is located to the east of Wuhan, so it should be called East Lake, and the current East Lake should be called West Lake. The historical reasons are briefly explained as follows:
According to relevant documents, this water area has always been a battleground for military strategists since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. , so there are many beautiful stories about historical heroes left around Yanxi Lake, such as Gujia Mountain in the south of Yanxi Lake. According to legend, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, King Zhuang of Chu played drums here to save people. This mountain was named Gujia Mountain; during the Three Kingdoms period , Sun Quan of the Eastern Wu Dynasty proclaimed himself emperor in Ezhou, trained naval forces and garrisoned troops in today's Zhanggong Mountain Village (and left the "Water Temple" ruins on today's Taohua Island). In order to commemorate Sun Quan, later generations built the Wuzhu Temple on this mountain. There are two hexagram stones in the water at the foot of the mountain (the quarries were destroyed during the Cultural Revolution). It is said that Zhou Yu fortune-telling was done here during his expedition. In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang fought on this water. In order to support Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Bowen set up on a hilltop on the north bank of Yanxi Lake. , slaying the five dragons enabled Zhu Yuanzhang to conquer the world. This mountain was named Zhushan. Later, in order to stabilize his political power, Zhu Yuanzhang gave this water area to a Huba named Yan. The Huba named Yan used his surname and residence as the boundary. The water area was named Yanxi Lake to the west and Yandong Lake to the east. The name of this water area is still used today.
In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, Li Zicheng was defeated and fled from Jiugong Mountain. After one of his generals, Li Shixian, broke through. They fled to this hill in this water area (now Zhanggong Village) and built a stronghold here for defense. Therefore, most of the villagers here now have the surname Li. It is said that the three Li tribes here are from different clans and the five Li tribes are from different tribes. The lower part bears the original surname of the clan. The mountain was originally named Zhaishan Li. There is a monk's bay on the east side of the mountain, and a Shimei Temple on the opposite mountain. According to legend, there is a legend that a monk had an affair with a nun. Both the temple and the nunnery were destroyed during the Cultural Revolution. Period.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, the bandits around Zhanggong Village were fighting for hegemony and harassing the people. Li Yaoting, a descendant of Li Shixian, was the adjutant of Zhang Zhidong at the time. He invited troops to suppress the bandits and restore peace to the people. The people commemorated Zhang Zhi. Dong changed the name of the mountain to Zhanggong Mountain. In the early days of liberation, there were troops stationed on the mountain.
