National hero Liu Yongfu
After the defeat of the First Sino-Japanese War, the Qing court signed the Treaty of Maguan with Japan, ceding Taiwan and Penghu to Japan. The people of Taiwan were unwilling to secede from the motherland and retained Tang Jingsong and Liu Yongfu to preside over the anti-Japanese situation.
Tang Jingsong did not keep his promise and fled back to the mainland disguised as a ship. Liu Yongfu was deeply inspired by the Taiwan people's enthusiasm for resisting the War of Resistance and presided over the overall situation in Tainan in the name of deputy to Taiwan's military affairs.
Liu Yongfu's Black Flag Army and rebel army fought desperately against the Japanese army, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. In the defense of Taiwan, the Japanese army suffered more than 30,000 casualties, even far more than the entire Sino-Japanese War, in which Prince Nohisa of Kita-Shirakawa Palace (the uncle of Emperor Meiji) was killed.

The heroic deeds of Liu Yongfu and the Taiwan War of Resistance led by him will forever be recorded in the annals of history, and their patriotic spirit has been admired by thousands of generations.
After Liu Yongfu returned to the mainland, he rebuilt the Black Flag Army and stationed himself at the old Yingpan (now the Wushan Campus of South China University of Technology) outside the Xiaobeimen Gate in Guangzhou. Liu Yiting, built in 1937 on the eve of the All-out War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, was built precisely to inspire the broad masses of the people to rise up against Japan through his commemoration. The name Liu Yi is in view of his righteous deeds when he was in the country. This is exactly:

The strong ships and cannons invaded our territory, defending the family and defending the country and going to the killing scene.
The black flag rolls up and crosses, and the red horse long hisses at the wolf.
Officials protect Xun and live, and the isolated island fights for the death of the country.
The hundred-year-old heroic soul He An is here, and the past is sealed in the Three Xuantang.
