During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period (907-979), King Wumu of Chu, Ma Yin, sent troops to attack Chengzhou (now Jingzhou Miao and Dong Autonomous County), local chiefs Pan Jinsheng () and Yang Chenglei () resisted the attack by favourable terrain. Now the trenches on the mount are still there. After the death of Yang Zaisi, local people built a temple on the top to commemorate him and called him Grandpa Mount Fei ().
