Jiuli Hill Ancient Battleground

Each mountain top of Jiuli Mountain follows the pictograms of objects. From west to east, there are Xiangshan Mountain, Baofeng Mountain, etc., and there are Dagu Mountain, Xiaogu Mountain, Shagu Mountain, Tiger Mountain, Guishan Mountain, Kanhua Mountain, Yangjia Mountain, Jiangjia Mountain and Pipa Mountain, etc. Xuzhou has been a battleground for strategists since ancient times. According to ancient records, from the 18th year of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period of Lu Chenggong (573 BC) to the establishment of the state in 1949, there were more than 400 large-scale wars in Xuzhou. And Jiuli Mountain is the battlefield of the fierce soldiers of Chu and Han, leaving Baiyun Cave where Xiang Yu was defeated. Since then, Zhu Quanzhong and Shi Pu of the Tang Dynasty, and Zhu Di and Zhu Yunwen of the Ming Dynasty have all fought fiercely in Jiuli Mountain. In the fourth chapter of the classical masterpiece "Water Margin", there is a poem: "In the ancient battlefield in front of Jiuli Mountain, the shepherd boy picked up old knives and guns", which is a more appropriate portrayal of this.
