Wolf Mountain Stone Carvings
At the foot of Wolf Mountain, there are two stone carvings. One is about 1.3 meters long and 0.7 meters thick, inscribed with a five-character poem: "Commanding fifty thousand troops, traversing ten thousand miles, crushing the Jinji Fort, stationed at Zijin on transfer. Suddenly encountering the Double Ninth Festival, I climb here to ascend high,"
where only Mongolian yurts are seen, no villages or trees in view. Tongzhi Ren Shen. About 10 meters to the west of the stone carving, there is a smaller inscription also bearing the characters "Tongzhi Ren Shen." "Tongzhi Ren Shen" refers to the 11th year of the Tongzhi reign during the Qing Dynasty (1872), indicating that the stone carvings date from this period. From the five-character poem, it can be inferred that the person who engraved the stone was a military general.
