  • In accordance with the instruction of Kinmen Defence Command, the fort was renovated and officially given the name of "Fort General" in 1980.
 
Introduction
  • Fort General was a "Spiritual Fort of the Battlefield" during August 23rd Artillery Battle.
 
Historic Site
  • On Oct. 21st, 1958, Mr. Chiang Ching-kuo, general Wang Sheng and Ke Yuan-fen, took the warship "Success" from Shuitou pier to Lieyu to encourage the defending army and conveyed the instructions of President Chiang Kai-shek. In the fierce gun battle, Mr. Chiang Ching-kuo met and talked to major general Hao Bo-cun, the commander of the 9th division, at the fort. This completely encouraged the defending troops and therefore the position became a "Spiritual Fort" in the war with a great historical value.
