"Seven streams of water all directions sea, Castle Peak and a half miles into the city", this popular poem, vividly depicts the historical and cultural city of Changshu melting "mountains, water, city" as one of the characteristics of the landscape. Yushan broke into the city's lush, towering walls built across the mountains, the newly built tower Yushan door cornices volley, spectacular. Whenever we with this majestic beauty of the walls, could not help but think of the Ming Dynasty Imperial Japanese fortification Wang Fu hero.

Wang Fu, the word Dulwich, No. Cang Ye, Zhejiang Dongyang, Jiajing 29 years (1550) comprehensive examination into the ten, two years after it was made magistrate Zhao Tingpai to Changshu (County Chief Executive). After he took office to Changshu, immediately to the sufferings of people visit, then straighten out county government to punish officials, won the public trust. Where civil strife, are scrambling to ask the magistrate umpire. Some of the original people who commit crimes, the king of the magistrate of incentives and penalties, have Gaiecongshan, said he was willing to serve.

At that time, after the mid-Ming, along the southeast coast of the Japanese pirates often businessmen harassment. They colluded with local local tyrant, traders, pirates, rogue, full of robbery, maiming people. People hated, calling them "pirates." After entering North Korea Jiajing, Jian Xiang Yan Song exercise of power, the political affairs of chaos, breakdowns in coastal defense, which is more rampant pirates. Changshu in Wang Fu to make the magistrate's Jiajing thirty-year (1552), pirates gathered hundreds of maritime vessels, in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang coastal areas, divided into small shares, series of snatching dozens of cities, Changshu is from Jianghai Recently, he became a pirate attack target. Wang Fu arrival soon after recruited hundreds of young adults, organized the "Society for the militia," set up "Society long" military exercises, to prevent invasion of pirates. Wang Fu personally do instructors to teach them archery.

The next year, a sudden attack pirates Fukuyama, looting. After receiving the report, Wang Fu, personally led the militia engaged in a villa south pirates, pirates were so sharp anomalies of the Wo Dao, and Poet militia used mostly homemade guns and knives, often slashing the military front Wo Dao, to eat a lot of losses , while Wang Fu Tuidi of dollars for the brains, the blessing looked up and saw the growth of both sides of the ponds and lush bamboo forest, suddenly got the idea. He told soldiers in local materials, will cut a long bamboo, sharpened on behalf of the gun. Wo Dao, although sharp, but no match for the long bamboo guns, even bamboo has been cut away ten cut, bamboo grab still sharp; bamboo guns are cut too much, you can change one another, anyway bamboo inexhaustible. Bamboo spear-dead pirates were numerous. Wang Fu personally bow miss, the pirates head shot. Pirates dead leader, leaving two warships, eager to escape away. Today, there is still a blessing along the ponds' back Kou Bridge "remains.

Poet struggle to obtain a preliminary victory, but Wang Fu know Japanese patients have not yet eradicated, will stage a comeback. To guard against pirates invade the city of Changshu, he was determined to mobilize the people repairing the wall. Changshu was due to dilapidated walls, has long been dilapidated. Coupled with successive years of famine, victims have to dig for bricks in exchange for food, and many lots have been the only remaining soil Gang, and even razed to the ground. He will bring together well-off city squire met repeatedly made clear that anti-Japanese fortification of truth, and ask them to repair the city agreed program. He first caused a small amount of the walls themselves, to accurately calculate the cost of each ten feet wall of 30 pieces of silver, thus accounting for the full cost of the fortification, he will grow into the entire wall, ranging from a number of short pieces, according to well-off property cases, sub-let the family workers repair a deadline. Because it is separately hand, the progress of construction of the wall very quickly, only five months, on all completed. Circumference of one thousand six hundred and sixteen new wall ten feet (about 5553 meters), high nijo four feet, eight feet wide basis. Have a moat outside the walls, a total of seven gates, gate tower were built on. This new security wall to become a solid defensive barrier Changshu.

The wall is completed, Changshu Wang Fu to reward people's achievements, specially within the tree in a piece of Simon "reconstruction Changshu county in mind the" big stone, the inscription as "Yongle Dadian" total school locals Di Jingchun writing, please text the famous calligrapher twilight writing, carved stone home Wuding Juan.

Shortly after completion of construction of walls, pirates and invasion. Jiajing 33 years (1554) April, pirates from the Changshu Baimao into the territory of Hong Kong, Changshu East Gate from the water toward the bribe. Wang Fu ordered the gates closed. When the pirates to attack the wall, the wall base arrows shot dead pirates in a large number of arrows. A few more sturdy Japanese soldiers, risking approaching the wall, ordered the soldiers in the king Fu lying on the wall, threw down large stones, suddenly Japanese soldiers smashed badly beaten, killed on the spot. Pirates siege failed, vent their anger on the people outside the city, set fire to a large area outside the east gate houses.

The next day, pirates stole pounced Yushan, turn to attack from the northwest city of Changshu, China, preparations were made as the city soldiers, pirates and did not succeed. Wang Fu after careful investigation, identify the name of King Yuan beggars, unscrupulous, willing to guide for pirates, pirates led up the mountain. Wang Fu Yuan designed trapping the king, he personally executed. Yuan's body will be dismembered and hung on the wall for public display.

Unexpectedly, after a few days after another heavy rain Pang perish, the new city building collapse was the collapse of many rain washed; pirates take advantage of the siege, almost scored several times the city, the situation is extremely critical, Wang Fu took the lead, supervise in person the front. His four running in the rain, where it toward a dangerous situation where. He has always been the enemy soldiers in one side so that the bolt release, contain forward pirates; side of the door directing people to use, Shugun and other objects to block the gap, while pick mud repair walls, he just fought off a bottom in pirate attack in the wild. Changshu City finally turned the corner.

Wang Fu heard the report, said angrily: "Japanese thief competing dare come to our Changshu, we must destroy them!" Immediately called braves, and local money as a pioneer Pan two would climb more than ten vessels, to still embarked on the lake to chase Japanese enemy. Unexpectedly, Wang Fu detected the fleet's whereabouts are pirates, pirates traveling the first fleet to open the pond to a place called, the narrow band channel, the two sides covered with reeds, then divide our forces ashore, set an ambush.
