History

At the early stage, an artillery was already built at the site of the fortress during the Kingdom of Tungning. In 1717, the new Penghu city was rebuilt at the fortress area during the Qing Dynasty rule. In 1864, the fortress was reconstructed by Vice Brigadier General Wu Qixun and named it Jinguitou Fortress. During the Sino-French War in 1884–1885, the fortress was destroyed. After the war ended, Liu Mingchuan was appointed as governor to handle the reconstruction works in Taiwan. In 1887, Wu Hongluo was appointed by him as garrison commander to rebuild the forts in Penghu. During the Japanese rule of Taiwan, the Imperial Japanese Army used the fortress for their military maneuvers. After the handover of Taiwan from Japan to the Republic of China in 1945, the Nationalist Government change the space usage of the fortress.[1]

Architecture

The fortress is rectangular in shape with inner and outer walls. It has two arched entrances. Nearby the fortress are the large barrack, large and ammunition depots and three offices.[1]

gollark: Keep cc.znepb.me.
gollark: If you configured it wrong during setup of whatever this is somehow, then it won't match. PotatOS has the law enforcement access mechanism (PS#7D7499AB) which also currently doubles as "forgot password" handling, but not every OS does that.
gollark: How do you know your password is the right one?
gollark: I should assign unique IDs to the other sandbox escape bugs.
gollark: My "fix" is this:```lua--[["Fix" for bug PS#E9DCC81BSummary: `pcall(getfenv, -1)` seemingly returned the environment outside the sandbox.Based on some testing, this seems like some bizarre optimization-type feature gone wrong.It seems that something is simplifying `pcall(getfenv)` to just directly calling `getfenv` and ignoring the environment... as well as, *somehow*, `function() return getfenv() end` and such.The initial attempt at making this work did `return (fn(...))` instead of `return fn(...)` in an attempt to make it not do this, but of course that somehow broke horribly. I don't know what's going on at this point.This is probably a bit of a performance hit, and more problematically liable to go away if this is actually some bizarre interpreter feature and the fix gets optimized away.Unfortunately I don't have any better ideas. Also, I haven't tried this with xpcall, but it's probably possible, so I'm attempting to fix that too.]]local real_pcall = pcallfunction _G.pcall(fn, ...) return real_pcall(function(...) local ret = {fn(...)} return unpack(ret) end, ...)end local real_xpcall = xpcallfunction _G.xpcall(fn, handler) return real_xpcall(function() local ret = {fn()} return unpack(ret) end, handler)end```which appears to work at least?
