Guabu Mountain was called Guabu Mountain in ancient times (with the same sound as ancient "step" and "port"), which is located at 10 km southeast of the county, with Chuhe River in the south and Guabu Town in the west. East longitude 1 18 53', north latitude 32 15'. The mountain peak is 98.7 meters above sea level and is a famous mountain in the county. According to the Records of Liuhe County in Guangxu of Qing Dynasty, "Guabu is in Wuzhong, and Wu people sell melons by the river bank because of its name." There is another cloud: "Jin Yongjia casts a tripod, which is turtle-shaped and sinks in Guabu River, so it is also called Guishan." In fact, Guabu Mountain looks like a turtle, especially from the south of the Yangtze River. Before the ancient rivers moved south, Guabu Mountain was an important ferry. From Guabu to the east, south of the Yangtze River is 15 km wide, with fast-flowing water, rocky beaches and dangerous waters. Looking at the mountains, you can see the scenery of the Yangtze River, so in ancient times, "Guabu Guantao" was listed as one of the twelve scenic spots in Liuhe County.
Guabu Mountain, with dangerous terrain, is a battleground for ancient strategists. In the 27th year of Yuanjia in Song Wendi (AD 450), Emperor Tuoba-tao of the Northern Wei Dynasty led more than 100,000 troops into the port mountain, and the mountain plate was the way, and felt lodge was set up, threatening Jiankang across the river (now Nanjing). Tuoba Tao built a beaver shrine on the mountain ("Beaver" is Tuoba Tao's nickname). That year, he tasted the worship of God in the Southern Dynasties to celebrate the show of martial arts. During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, in the third year of Joan of Arc in Zhou Shizong (AD 956), Zhao Kuangyin and Nantang soldiers fought between Liuhe Guabu, killing more than 5,000 Tang soldiers, and the rest struggled to cross the river and drowned a lot. The following year, Zhao Kuangyin defeated Li Jing with hundreds of soldiers in Guabu, Nantang. In the fourth year of Jianyan in the Southern Song Dynasty (A.D. 1 130), Han Shizhong, a famous anti-gold star, defeated the Golden Army in Huangtiandang with 8,000 men. Later, more than 100,000 troops of Jin Wushu retreated from Guabu. During the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the Taiping Army also repelled more than 10,000 Qing soldiers here.
Because of the war, many historical sites on Guabu Mountain have disappeared. Guabu Mountain, which has now become a forest, has a pleasant scenery. At the foot of the mountain, on the east side are red sand mines, brick factories, quarries and chimneys; On the northeast side is a county-run orchard. In spring, there are many flowers, pink and green, and many flowers and fruits. Guabu Town in the west foot of the mountain is bustling with cars coming and going, boats coming and going, and the scenery on the mountain is even more beautiful.
